I'm curious but what was the biggest disappointment,in your opinion, from the last arc of bleach?
If I had to pick the biggest, it was Rukia being excluded up until the end, and even then she wasn’t part of the fight to end Yhwach. You don’t just declare Rukia the female protagonist and throw away a moment like that. Especially after Uraharah’s words? Rukia was clearly supposed to be part of that fight, right next to Ichigo like it’s always been. So I’m forever calling bullshit on Kubo having it all planed out from the start. Our heroine couldn’t live up to her title in the end just as our hero’s journey never had a proper ending. I love Rukia to death, and to see her just thrown away like that was the shittiest thing a mangaka could do. We get to see her Bankai and she became a captain but that doesn’t make up for it.
THIS.

My favorite thing is when I see IH fans with photoshopped profile pics and what not LIKE
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL !!
When your “canon” ship barely has canon material together y'all gotta be copy and pasting them together LMAOOO
Couldn’t be me
y'know when ih's say that ori 'encouraged' ichigo to save rukia (which is complete bs), am I the only one who thought that ori was low-key trying to stop him? I swear yandere orihime is a real thing. The girl is sly lol.
Ah, Chapter 58. Prior to Ichigo’s talk with Orihime, we get this:
The boy says, “I feel odd. Nothing seems out of place. Even without Rukia, the world just keeps going.”
The world just keeps going (as if it isn’t supposed to). This panel is the reason I screamed when I saw this:
The rest of my answer is under the cut.
Ichigo & Rukia just make so much sense. They just complete and compliment each other so well !! Like, you can't deny this pls !!
Can we stop and just remember how dramatic SS is when it comes to executions. It’s like regular jail time + the electric chair, only in SS its 100x more extra with a giant fire chicken.
GIANT FIRE CHICKEN 💀💀💀
I just don’t get it, like.. what is the allure of IH ?? How can that be your OTP ?? Your one true pairing !! What is there ?? It’s just so one sided… all the times Ichigo even acknowledges Orihime it’s just not significant ?? It’s never like it is with Rukia ?? Just where is there development ? Where are their parallels and metaphors and names ?? They don’t have them. So what is it that draws the few people in this fandom to love them sooo much and have them as an OTP.. I don’t even mean this in a nasty way I JUST DONT GET IT. I don’t understand why you would ship IH. ESPECIALLY when Ichigo and Rukia’s relationship exist.
I’m also going to be serious here when I think that it’s the allure of the Beast and Beauty Trope. Not just with Ichigo, but many Orihime pairings fit that “Beast and Beauty Trope. This is what I objectively have thought for a while ever since I saw a certain pattern with Orihime parings in the Bleach tag. There are so many of those pairings such Orihime x Aizen, Orihime x Arrancars paring. Even theirs fanarts speak volume with Orihime’s pose and facial in them in contrast to her counterparts.
People who ship because of that allure may not even realize it themselves. Hell I used to love some pairings because of that allure. The “he’s an asshole to everyone, but he’s nice to me (and he’s soft to cats or whatever), or “he’s this dark, dangerous person but he’s totally devoted to me” (oh and don’t forget he’s also like cat so he’s secretly deep deep down has a soft side). Maybe once in the past, he walked an old lady across the road so he’s just this misunderstood person.
With Ichigo in particular, there’s also the “knight in shiny armour” thing, and the sweet and tender kind of love they see. You know where the couples only give each other soft look and soft smile. Every action is tender so no feeling can be hurt.
Ooohh good points, I can definitely see those. I still don't personally think it's enough to make them a good ship because of other things and better relationships. But it definitely helps kind of understand what attracts some fans to the ship! Thanks for your thoughts! ^-^

psa: I love ichiruki
It’s the liquor bringing back the pain but I cannot believe Bleach didn’t end with Ichigo in SS preparing to go to Karakura Town as its true Shinigami and not its substitute. I can’t believe Rukia wasn’t seeing him off through the Senkaimon saying “Fool, you’d better not wreck the place before I get there.” Damn.
May I ask your opinion? The reason why I, and so many were so put off with Ohiwhatshername (Kubo's shitty writing) was that she was an usurper. Kubo tried so hard to insert her in a role that she did not fit into. He recycled the SS arc with this cheep wannabe heroine, for years and even now she's nothing but an intruder. He should have given her a fresh arc, and not recycled seconds. It's not a coincidence why so many disliked her because of the HM arc. it's his fault she failed. Thoughts?
I don’t think she deserved a fresh arc. Tatsuki and Chad were Ichigo’s friends before anyone and Ishida bonded with him in a way that transcended anything Orihime could have ever hoped to be. Those people were neglected, and shit on in their own arcs. He did choose to focus on Orihime quite a bit. She got spotlight in the Fullbringer arc when we still don’t know the history of Chad’s Fullbring. She got to fight alongside Ichigo when Yhwach killed Ichigo’s mom and Uryū’s mom. He made her so unlikeable to me and I really don’t understand what anyone sees in her tbh.
I see your “romantic relationships shouldn’t be more important than platonic relationships” and raise you “romantic relationships shouldn’t be rooted in anything but strong, healthy, and mutually rewarding friendships anyways”
We do always love you | IchiRuki
JusT saw a Rukia pic captioned with a romantic poem about the sun and the moon, but they ship RR... like ??? WHAT DO YALL NOT GET ??
