I'm sure there's a way. Kuukaku-san isn't exactly a quiet neighbor; someone must know where she is. If Ichigo wants to see his family now that he knows they are family, he'll get to.

Yes...he was already vice-captain when I entered the Gotei, and his wife the third seat. He taught me a great deal. Knowing they're family, Ichigo reminds me of him in some ways, but they were also very different.
