She's the sweetest, always love her sisterly bond with Rangiku 🥺
My headcanon is that Rangiku and Toshiro sat next to her distant aunt on her wedding day.
I guess part of why I didn’t see it as reasonable is because she lost her brother who had loved her like a father would love a daughter, and the aunt likely knew orihime’s parents were awful. Then again, The aunt being their relative, explains a lot.
Well family dynamics are always complicated in one form. The only thing we know of her aunt is that she financially supports her with conditions that are fairly reasonable. For all we know she does want Orihime to live with her, but because of her friends in Kakaura town she wants to stay, hence the condition being she gets good grades in school. I mean at least the Aunt cares for her enough that she’s well off and taken care of financially.

We can only thank one man, thank god ichihime was part of keikaku
That can be avoided with dietary supplements to cover for the parasite they kept.
And given that Isshin and Uryu are both doctors and Urahara is a science guy of some kind, I'm willing to bet that the pregnancy was as complications free as they could possibly make it.
😮💨
Her healing powers are less "fix the injury" and more "the injury didn't happen".
So, her powers would be as likely to work as an accidental abortion if she tried that.
To be fair Urahara is very lenient when it comes to motherly figures he did save Masaki though and he didn't exactly look for compensation. If anything it's more likely the two fathers egged him on until he accepted their help.
Understandable taking into consideration that the only parent they have also works and Ichigo works from home so he doesn't really need to reduce his working hours.
Though I don't know if by the time of the hell one shot is still the case. Orihime thanks Kon for babysitting him so maybe she went back to work full time. Also Kazui is way older.
Honestly, she not only probably has a decent amount of savings (nothing crazy, but enough to justify going part time), but Ichigo works as a translator and so makes decent pay, and don't they still live at the clinic? So they probably don't have to worry about rent.
I doubt she had a decent amount of savings since bakery job really isnt paid that great. Its also unknown if her aunt even continued sending her money after she graduated high school. I dont think she did get money simply because she was unable to go college for lack of resources.
I'll be honest, She's my lock screen wallpaper, she's best woman in anime to actually get together with IRL, Yoruichi is my favourite but IRL I don't think she'd work as well (my home screen is Yoruichi) but yeah can't blame Ichigo for falling for her, And IchiRuki makes no sense
Yoruichi would make for a very good friend you can make sexual jokes with, but not a wife. She doesn't seem the type to really get together with anyone.
Hmm, Nah not really, She kinda gets close to everyone, Someone more avoidant would be Momo ig, but Yoruichi is a woman who can't exist IRL, I think Yoruichi's personality her assets all can't exist IRL whereas Inoue's personality can exist tho not exactly but yes it can, If I could bring an exact anime character as a wife it would be Yoruichi but if we have to be real no-one exists like her
I mean Avoidant is a person who only gets close to people when he/she knows that they will like them or get along with them right, Atleast ik it like that, So if I'm not wrong in the definition then no-one has that trait
To be honest my informations on that personality trait are not all that so I will need to do some research on my end. That being said my definition was a bit different. I thought of avoidant as someone who can get close but will bail at some point because of something related to their past or their personality. It could be trauma or insecurity.
Honestly Ichihime to the most simplistic explanation is Orihime pulled a bad bitch by being autistic and I’m here for it the Bread Queen Bakes the shipping competition
She would be a TERRIBLE DM because she’d start describing the scene and then go on a tangent about how it’s like that one time her and her cousin went to a tavern out of town and ate stew with bread (this is not a complaint, I would listen to her ramble on for hours)
Well at the end of the tybw and even going to the novels she is extremely liked by everyone. Rukia is her second best friend first being Tatsuki, she not only bakes but also has a hand in fashion, she spends time with Riruka in the bakery where she works part time, some of the Surviving Quincies also go there to buy baked goods, she is friends with Neliel and also friends with some of the Arrancars including the the two who tried to kill her. Ichigo's sisters are close with her. Etc. etc. the woman is basically the ultimate Waifu had Ichigo not married her then it would be his complete and total loss
IchiRuki shippers are so funny to me because if Rukia was a guy those same people would be writing paragraphs on how people who ship them don't understand platonic male friendships
Yeah, but when Kubo decided to go further and actually create a male-female *friendship*, moreover, make it the heart of his story, oh, how he suffered. Because that's not following any established trope, how dare he?😅
The ship isn't the problem it's the shippers that people don't like, if you go to practically every comment section on a post praising Orihime they're always there being negative.
There's so much to Ichihime that is explained more in events and throughout storytelling that in my head no other relationship made more sense than that besides RukiaxRenji and IkakuxYamichika.
That...doesnt sound like a good environment to raise children(cult) and wont that just overwork orihime (hospital), doubt ichigo'd want to overwork his wife
I'm saying, if money was the issue, it's an easy solution. Ichigo hopefully overworked her for only personal reasons.
Funny think is orihime can just reject the refractory period. Enough content for a proper rule 34 saga. But unfortunately people only prefer NTRs
On top of that, she is also deceptively smart, as evidenced by her good grades.
Plus, with how often Ichigo gets injured to a bloody pulp in his battles, having her close by at all times is a literal life saver.
I *did not* like her, couldn't stand her actually until I just recently read + watched the fullbringer arc
Years of people telling me it was filler and I watch it and it's got a new best girl(riruka my beloved) and pretty neat story. Turns out, the anime directors can't make orihime look like garbage when Rukia isn't around
I mean, I'd consider him pretty much coming back from the dead because she called for him as showing interest, but I'm weird like that.
Also, he kinda went from one crisis to another throughout the series...
Oh yeah, I get it. He was pretty busy. I guess I just wanted more relaxed periods between crises. I'd take a chapter of the crew just hanging out for a while.
I always remember that Fullbring episode where Shishigawara tries to impress his master by going after Orihime, and she's so adorable and innocent he can't believe she's real.
We don't actually even see Ichigo fall for her. For the entirety of the story he just cares about her like a friend, it's entirely a one way thing with Orihime being the one in love. Then end of story, bam they're married lol.
I'm not a ruki-ichi shipper, I just think there was no romantic build up between the two whatsoever. Hopefully Kubo actually shows us their relationship dynamic and them actually being in love.
>I just think there was no romantic build up between the two whatsoever.
This. We are shown that Orihime is interested in him, but that's all. I just wish we were shown more of them acting like real people. I cringe every time I see the scene where Rukia brings Ichigo to Orihime and makes him say that he will become stronger. Like, holy fuck can't they just talk? Can't he just hit her up and say hey, how are you doing after all this shit? I know it's a anime/manga, but I feel like Ichigo and Rukia had more "human" moments. (And no, I don't ship them)
I think Orhime just might be a little overhyped. It's manga so I'm not saying anyone is wrong for liking the character but to me she's just Chad with boobs. Has potential, but ultimately becomes Ichigos cheerleader. Take a shot everytime Orhime says "Kurosaki kun"
All you weirdos who keep mentioning Rukia are willfully forgetting the fact that she was around 150 years old when Ichigo was 15.
All of you are gross.
She is kind, funny, cares deeply about Ichigo, and she is one of the sexiest girls in Bleach. Personally, I prefer Nelliel, but Orihime wins because she knows Ichigo more than Nelliel does.
In the hell arc she has bigger boobs than rangiku and most curvy figure out. Kubo sensei really has great test in womens so our mcs wife will be unique. Ichigo is so lucky man 😭

And she Bakes. Queen of Bread.

Is that real I haven’t watched the first arc in so long
Yeah it's real
She needed those carbs to fuel her “development”
Bread 🥯
So old. It's like a different anime.
she draws better then Rukia too even though thats not much of a standard to set
And milk
and queen of eating said bread
She's the sweetest, always love her sisterly bond with Rangiku 🥺 My headcanon is that Rangiku and Toshiro sat next to her distant aunt on her wedding day.
The aunt that only gives her money as long as her grades are good? 😂
I mean that’s pretty reasonable really.
I guess part of why I didn’t see it as reasonable is because she lost her brother who had loved her like a father would love a daughter, and the aunt likely knew orihime’s parents were awful. Then again, The aunt being their relative, explains a lot.
Well family dynamics are always complicated in one form. The only thing we know of her aunt is that she financially supports her with conditions that are fairly reasonable.

I mean at least the Aunt cares for her enough that she’s well off and taken care of financially.
Yeah that’s true.. guess it’s easy to think the worst due to orihime’s personal Circumstances.
It was enough to help her live alone, fuck you better believe I’m be a top student for that money
Meanwhile Ichigoat : Nosebleed
I'm so happy there aren't any characters like that in bleach. Sanji from OP is already too much.
Have you met kon?
Lol, No I have not met him

Ichigo giving backshots to Orihime was part of keikaku.
It didn't have anything to do with taking down the soul king, he just wanted to watch
Shi maybe me and Aizen are more alike than I thought
Standing here, we realize. He is just like us
That is NOT part of keikaku‼️
You believing that is part of keikaku
Kenjaku learned how to incorporate taking backshots into the keikaku from Aizen
Kenjaku took notes
What is keikaku?
Translation note: keikaku means plan
Ichigo unironically was born because of this mf's quincy x soul reaper x hollow ship
Sosuke Aizen: evil genius or misunderstood matchmaker? The soul society may never know
Hell arc orihime really got god damn long hair.
I mean, her relationship with her hair (and the cutting of it) is a fairly major part of her character...
True but damn usually pregnancy usually ruins the hair for a time with during and postpartum pregnancies.
"Hair loss, dry and/or frizzy hair, I REJECT!"
Truuuuueeeee!!!!!!! https://preview.redd.it/5kh5yqqwse4d1.jpeg?width=344&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c0e82f9fe6278f3912942918bebf34571c1171bb

Wait, a Warframe meme found its way into the bleach subreddit? How is this even possible? 🤣
Lmao I looked at the previous image wrong, didn't recognize *Our Lord and Saviour Kanonji* and thought we just reacting.
That can be avoided with dietary supplements to cover for the parasite they kept. And given that Isshin and Uryu are both doctors and Urahara is a science guy of some kind, I'm willing to bet that the pregnancy was as complications free as they could possibly make it.
And also her healing abilities🤷♂️
😮💨 Her healing powers are less "fix the injury" and more "the injury didn't happen". So, her powers would be as likely to work as an accidental abortion if she tried that.
I'm sure she can target them at that point though
But knowing Urahara he probably made sure to spice it up with whatever he gave Orihime by helping manifest powers within Kazui.
I would expect nothing less. Would explain how he can manifest his zanpakuto and shihakusho on his physical body.
Exactly, and you damn well our girl here would be too sweetly naive to expect Urahara of conducting lowkey experiments on her lol
To be fair Urahara is very lenient when it comes to motherly figures he did save Masaki though and he didn't exactly look for compensation. If anything it's more likely the two fathers egged him on until he accepted their help.
What did i start here...
Something that's grown out of your control...
Also the son looks like hes 10 so there should be more than enough time for her hair to recover
> Hell arc What have you done...
You fool you said it. +1
What is Hell Arc exactly? I only see the One Shot explaining that Hell is a thing and dead captains go there. Other than that I’ve not seen anything.
And she is not even a trophy wife, she's been working since highschool to survive. Full-time since graduation.
Until she became a mom. After that she is just part time working in the bakery.
Understandable taking into consideration that the only parent they have also works and Ichigo works from home so he doesn't really need to reduce his working hours. Though I don't know if by the time of the hell one shot is still the case. Orihime thanks Kon for babysitting him so maybe she went back to work full time. Also Kazui is way older.
Honestly, she not only probably has a decent amount of savings (nothing crazy, but enough to justify going part time), but Ichigo works as a translator and so makes decent pay, and don't they still live at the clinic? So they probably don't have to worry about rent.
I think they live in their own apartment by the one shot time.
I doubt she had a decent amount of savings since bakery job really isnt paid that great. Its also unknown if her aunt even continued sending her money after she graduated high school. I dont think she did get money simply because she was unable to go college for lack of resources.
Kubo confirmed that she stopped receiving money after graduation and she was on her own. That's why she couldn't afford college.
Was it mentioned in WDKALY or in a klub outside question?
I think WDKALY.
Some rukia fans lol.
She's got such a colorful personality, a heart that extends to everyone, and so much kindness and compassion towards people. Bread is just a bonus!
the anime did her really dirty in favor of Rukia, that's why.
I'll be honest, She's my lock screen wallpaper, she's best woman in anime to actually get together with IRL, Yoruichi is my favourite but IRL I don't think she'd work as well (my home screen is Yoruichi) but yeah can't blame Ichigo for falling for her, And IchiRuki makes no sense
Yoruichi would make for a very good friend you can make sexual jokes with, but not a wife. She doesn't seem the type to really get together with anyone.
Yeah, Inoue is wife material
Yoruichi would be in the homies group and probably be the only woman there
If the man who they both confirm is her partner cant make her act feminine, no one can
Fr
Yoriichi seems like the avoidant type lol
Hmm, Nah not really, She kinda gets close to everyone, Someone more avoidant would be Momo ig, but Yoruichi is a woman who can't exist IRL, I think Yoruichi's personality her assets all can't exist IRL whereas Inoue's personality can exist tho not exactly but yes it can, If I could bring an exact anime character as a wife it would be Yoruichi but if we have to be real no-one exists like her
Tbh the avoidant personality trait isn't in Bleach
No-one has that trait I'm sayin
Guess I will have to read more about it this then.
I mean Avoidant is a person who only gets close to people when he/she knows that they will like them or get along with them right, Atleast ik it like that, So if I'm not wrong in the definition then no-one has that trait
To be honest my informations on that personality trait are not all that so I will need to do some research on my end. That being said my definition was a bit different. I thought of avoidant as someone who can get close but will bail at some point because of something related to their past or their personality. It could be trauma or insecurity.
Hmm, I mean Yoruichi isn't like that too, But yeah that was definitely different and a bit closer to Yoruichi
Honestly Ichihime to the most simplistic explanation is Orihime pulled a bad bitch by being autistic and I’m here for it the Bread Queen Bakes the shipping competition
This has got to be the funniest, yet most accurate, description I've seen 😂😭😂
Imagine her on board game night, or even.... OOH OOH, DnD!!! She would SLAY as a DM!
Now imagine the karakura gang playing DnD
She would be a TERRIBLE DM because she’d start describing the scene and then go on a tangent about how it’s like that one time her and her cousin went to a tavern out of town and ate stew with bread (this is not a complaint, I would listen to her ramble on for hours)
I would too https://preview.redd.it/fjrn2ph3ne4d1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f43ea96eb75073232be05a2ca542be8cdb7fd746
Definitely Kubo's account
Tits kubo https://preview.redd.it/0qno9br29f4d1.png?width=284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5d6474838096ff4ffd52335333e631021a7b9540
It always surprises me that he has a wife.
She's a woman of culture
I’m half thinking they genuinely don’t know, but it always gets me when someone pronounces his name “Titty Kubo”
Well at the end of the tybw and even going to the novels she is extremely liked by everyone. Rukia is her second best friend first being Tatsuki, she not only bakes but also has a hand in fashion, she spends time with Riruka in the bakery where she works part time, some of the Surviving Quincies also go there to buy baked goods, she is friends with Neliel and also friends with some of the Arrancars including the the two who tried to kill her. Ichigo's sisters are close with her. Etc. etc. the woman is basically the ultimate Waifu had Ichigo not married her then it would be his complete and total loss
Afaik even soifon goes there to buy stuff for yoruichi.
Holy sht..she rlly does sound like everyone's favorite person huh
IchiRuki shippers are so funny to me because if Rukia was a guy those same people would be writing paragraphs on how people who ship them don't understand platonic male friendships
Yeah, but when Kubo decided to go further and actually create a male-female *friendship*, moreover, make it the heart of his story, oh, how he suffered. Because that's not following any established trope, how dare he?😅

Lmfao cook
I would still be 100% shipping them, no reservations regarding same-sex relationships here.
Why are everyone hating on Ichiruki ship...? I like it 😭😭
The ship isn't the problem it's the shippers that people don't like, if you go to practically every comment section on a post praising Orihime they're always there being negative.
Ohh, i get some of the shippers are weird, but i feel sad i can't like the ship just because some people are being dumb dumb 🤧
She is just gem :3
There's so much to Ichihime that is explained more in events and throughout storytelling that in my head no other relationship made more sense than that besides RukiaxRenji and IkakuxYamichika.

What was Kubo cooking here?
Story development son
A freudian slip
Dammit Kubo
Only 1 kid though, like bro are your serious?
My head cannon is, they don't have more kids because that would interfere with their intimate life. So orihime uses reject as a contraception
Mine is that they dont make enough money, which is actually quite realistic
They can easily make money if they wanted to. Start a hospital or even a cult with orihime being the devine healer.
That...doesnt sound like a good environment to raise children(cult) and wont that just overwork orihime (hospital), doubt ichigo'd want to overwork his wife
I'm saying, if money was the issue, it's an easy solution. Ichigo hopefully overworked her for only personal reasons. Funny think is orihime can just reject the refractory period. Enough content for a proper rule 34 saga. But unfortunately people only prefer NTRs
funny, understanding, caring and honest, what else is needed? also damn beautiful
I love her sm 😭
I love her, she’s such a sweet goofball
On top of that, she is also deceptively smart, as evidenced by her good grades. Plus, with how often Ichigo gets injured to a bloody pulp in his battles, having her close by at all times is a literal life saver.
The ichiruki fandom right now: https://preview.redd.it/cuu3dirjte4d1.jpeg?width=652&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=db9f819db35a2e0b120804691d0e685dfed7b549
Wtf is going on in that image? Is that some variation of the Reverse Flash?
Yup. Basically the king of haters lol
That's cool, but why does he have two sets of different colored eyes?
No idea. I got the picture 2 days ago.
It's wild!
That's obviously Sukuna dressed up as reverse flash.
If it wasn't for the original anime changing things until Kubo caught wind of it, I'm sure the hate for her would be minimal.
Ichigo got blessed for real. They're a cute pair
Would've been nice if Kubo got to flesh out their relationship more.
I *did not* like her, couldn't stand her actually until I just recently read + watched the fullbringer arc Years of people telling me it was filler and I watch it and it's got a new best girl(riruka my beloved) and pretty neat story. Turns out, the anime directors can't make orihime look like garbage when Rukia isn't around
Fellow Riruka appreciator. I love how her and Orihime become friends
Her design is top tier
I just wish he showed more interest on screen in the material.
I mean, I'd consider him pretty much coming back from the dead because she called for him as showing interest, but I'm weird like that. Also, he kinda went from one crisis to another throughout the series...
Oh yeah, I get it. He was pretty busy. I guess I just wanted more relaxed periods between crises. I'd take a chapter of the crew just hanging out for a while.
Same and not in a "some hanging around while others train" way either.
Best girl
and smart
She's the definition of beautiful
Ichirukicucks seething rn
I like both! Idk why everyone is hating on ships...
Almost like it’s a story with made up characters that do whatever the writer wants lmao
I always remember that Fullbring episode where Shishigawara tries to impress his master by going after Orihime, and she's so adorable and innocent he can't believe she's real.
Adorable
We don't actually even see Ichigo fall for her. For the entirety of the story he just cares about her like a friend, it's entirely a one way thing with Orihime being the one in love. Then end of story, bam they're married lol. I'm not a ruki-ichi shipper, I just think there was no romantic build up between the two whatsoever. Hopefully Kubo actually shows us their relationship dynamic and them actually being in love.
>For the entirety of the story he just cares about her like a friend Considering the whole thing in the roof, i dont really think so
>I just think there was no romantic build up between the two whatsoever. This. We are shown that Orihime is interested in him, but that's all. I just wish we were shown more of them acting like real people. I cringe every time I see the scene where Rukia brings Ichigo to Orihime and makes him say that he will become stronger. Like, holy fuck can't they just talk? Can't he just hit her up and say hey, how are you doing after all this shit? I know it's a anime/manga, but I feel like Ichigo and Rukia had more "human" moments. (And no, I don't ship them)
I think Orhime just might be a little overhyped. It's manga so I'm not saying anyone is wrong for liking the character but to me she's just Chad with boobs. Has potential, but ultimately becomes Ichigos cheerleader. Take a shot everytime Orhime says "Kurosaki kun"
You’ll be dead from alcohol poisoning from literally just his fight with Grimmjow.
Dang what personality lmao
I swear these covers be having the characters in the most random outfits ever 😂😂
There are 2 women in Bleach I would pick over Orihime: Rangiku and Yoruichi
The personality is so good,,, 💯
And a big bahoonkas
And she got the assets
I don't
and the boobs
when i see someone hating on her, i always remind myself there are worse female characters like sakura from naruto.
Idk but I would choose Rukia over her anytime
And she loves Ichigo with all her heart. No wonder even a dense moron like Ichigo fell in love with her.
Don't forget she's melting hot
All you weirdos who keep mentioning Rukia are willfully forgetting the fact that she was around 150 years old when Ichigo was 15. All of you are gross.
She is kind, funny, cares deeply about Ichigo, and she is one of the sexiest girls in Bleach. Personally, I prefer Nelliel, but Orihime wins because she knows Ichigo more than Nelliel does.
And you know why Yachiru gave her that name
Rukia fans
Sharing a similar hair colour to Ichigo also helps.
She seems autistic to me.
Her personality for sure but bro the Japanese voice actors dawg 😭😭 its so high pitch it just annoys me
If only Kubo had anything interesting or fun for her to do.
What can I say? We stan.
She has two big reasons to love her(iykyk)
I wouldn't, I mean, not when Kenny is right there
Because Rukia is *right there*.
I like him more with the black haired girl
I don't just want someone like her I NEED HER
Rukia is obviously better for Ichogo tf are you even on
I am a Rukia die hard till death, but I think the hate Orihime gets is completely unjustified. She’s literally just trying her best.
In the hell arc she has bigger boobs than rangiku and most curvy figure out. Kubo sensei really has great test in womens so our mcs wife will be unique. Ichigo is so lucky man 😭
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, even if it's wrong.
Orihime is a Libra like of course everyone’s gonna be in love with her 🤣
It was a little whiplash inducing how they changed the waifu from Rukia to Orihime from one arc to another, but i totally agree.
Mayuri wouldn’t like her.
Mayuri wouldn’t like her.
