Line 15:
*** There is no way to offend me, I'm simply an Rukia/Ichigo/Orihime shipper, so there is no bone to pick with me. However, I am quite sure Orihime loves Ichigo truly, and I'm under the impression he may like her too. I just think it's the most logical conclusion in the romantic field, if there are ships at all.
*** I sure hope you aren't refering to the argument "Ichigo is alive and Rukia is dead= Ichigo x Orihime most logical pairing bit", are you? That didn't stop Ichigo's parents from getting together. I may as well go all out and say it: life can be cruel, since everything defines destiny, not what you want. Before all of this happened, Orihime had only ever heard about Ichigo from Tatsuki: a third-person outlook told by someone who knew Ichigo since he was four. Rukia, on the other hand, has had first-hand experience with Ichigo and his feelings, is able to understand him, and can discern his feelings with just a look into his eyes. In chapter 378, she knew something went terribly wrong up above the dome, when she saw Ichigo's eyes were "not the eyes of a victor, and not the eyes of a man prepared to strike down his foe." She discerned all that with but a glance, and saw beyond his bravado. If you would care to click on the link above, and read my comparison, you'll see how I've outlined the differences between Soul Society and Hueco Mundo, and how they affect Ichigo. Besides, it has been stated that Ichigo has no romantic interest in anyone whatsoever by the writer himself. Plus, as mentioned above, Ichigo wants to protect everyone. It is what the people of a certain IchiRuki Fanclub call his "Hero Complex". And the holding hands after the Grimmjow fight NEVER HAPPENED IN THE MANGA!! Sorry, I just needed to get that point across...
*** I wasn't referring to anything, actually, I just wanted to say what I thought was more likely, if it ends with pairs at all. Really, I just want all those characters (except maybe Aizen, Tousen and Gin) to find their happy endings and I don't care who with, so long as they're happy, it will be okay by my standards.
*** ''Is'' Orihime even alive anymore? I mean, she has been "living" in Hueco Mundo for a while now. I do not know what kind of food (or tea) they can get there, but you have to wonder if even a spiritually powerful human, possibly especially a spiritually powerful human, could survive in that environment for that long. And, while I do not THINK she's become an Arrancar, Nel is proof that personality and emotion are not fool-proof methods of telling, and her uniform ''would'' prevent anyone from seeing a hole...
**** She's only been in Hueco Mundo for about a day or two. Ulquiorra offers her some food with the intention of keeping her alive, but it's unclear whether she ate it, even after being ordered to do so.
Line 21:
*** I don't think Aizen is done with her yet, he usually tends to [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness|kill]] those who are no longer of any use to him. He told Orihime he would be back for her; I think he still has something more to do with Orihime. Of course, she may just act as his [[I Have Your Wife|lure]] to the Six Hearts Club. Though, it could be that Orihime falls right into Aizen's trap, assuming she does get to the Hou-whatsit at all.
*** Of course he isn't done with her. The man's practically Bleach's [[Xanatos Gambit|Xanatos]]. He's probably just waiting patiently for her to heal the Hogyoku while he whittles down Soul Society's fighting (if that happens), and testing his resources against the other captains in close-combat (we've already seen that Tousen's mask is superior to the other Vizards). The man wouldn't show the girl the Hogyoku, and tell her she can reject anything from existence, would he? I've got a WMG posted about his plans, so go and read it, and see what I'm getting at. He most likely liked to her about her power's extent, to get her to do what he wants her to, by intentionally lying to her, and point her powers in the direction he wants them to [[Memetic Mutation|"Just as planned"]].
*** New troper to the conversation. On the subject of Orihime not "accepting Ichigo's hollow side", I think you're looking at it the wrong way. I think it's entirely possible for her to love him even though she's afraid of his inner hollow. Ichigo talks to [[Fan Nickname|Shirosaki]] like he's a seperate entity from himself. And whenever Shirosaki takes over, it's like Ichigo is a different person completely. When Shirosaki took over fully during the fight with Ulquiorra, he went on a rampage; brutally ripping off Ulquiorra's arm and throwing it at him. That's something that Ichigo would never do. Orihime's fear when seeing Ichigo with the hollow mask is forshadowing of that event.
.
* I just realized something. Orihime, for all rights and purposes, should be invincible, just like Aizen. I think the only think keeping her from being invincible is the total lack of offensive capabilities. Think about it. She was planning to "undo" the Hogyoku. What's stopping her from "undoing" you?
** I'd like to think that the more powerful something is, the harder it is to undo. I bet undoing the Hogyoku itself would've been an extremely hard feat for her. Maybe she could stop a regular human from existing, but it's very unlikely she'll do such a thing in the first place.
* The scene where Grimmjow wants Orihime to heal Ichigo and she says "no, you're just going to make him fight you." If Ichigo had a broken arm or something, this would make sense. But he doesn't. Ulquiorra punched a gigantic hole in his chest and left him to bleed out. Her options are to let him die, or fix him so that he has a chance to beat Grimmjow, and her first reaction is no. What the heck is up with that?
Line 32:
** Its because he was put in the hospital first so nurses, other patients, and the surgeons who were most likely with his dad have seen him arm-less. Therefore it will seem a bit odd if his arm were to just magically regrow according to their perspective. However if you think about if this makes the future a bit scary, how will he get a new arm, and go through recovery to gain full control over it.
** Similarly, what about Soifon? Then again, it's suggested that, as in Momo's case, the doctors in Soul Society can replace organs.
*** Manga has explained this, now. Strangely enough it seems that Ishida still had his arm (?), which now bugs ME, but eh. Evidently Ishida initially refused her offer to heal him.
* Riddle me this. Orihime's powers are supposedly to bend time and space to the point where she can reject anything from reality. If that's true...couldn't she simply, I don't know, reject Ichigo's loss of powers? Like, reject that the powers are lost after using Mugetsu?
** Consider that she's not capable of healing all wounds, blocking all attacks, or even fighting effectively. Aizen explained the nature of her powers, but not the extent of them. They're still growing.
* Even if {{spoiler|Tsukishima cuts Orihime with his fullbring}}, isn't her power at least slightly autonomous? We see that she sent one of her fairies to heal Chad during the Hueco Mundo arc, so we know that they're essentially capable of operating under their own power. So why is it that {{spoiler|when she's brainwashed}}, her power, which most likely functions with its own memories and personality, doesn't stop working when she tries to do something stupid?
** Inoue's powers are highly tied in with her emotions, so now that she has an emotional connection to Tsukishima, however fabricated it may be, she would not allow her powers to do anything to harm him and instead sees him as someone she needs to protect. She is also at the point and has been for some time where she does not need to call out to her fairies to summon them. She knowingly and purposely sent one to Chad, she just didn't have to say the incantation. Ultimately, she controls her powers, so even if on some level they disagree with her decisions, which has not been documented as of yet, they still have no choice but to do as she wishes.
* What the heck are Orehime's powers? They've been described as being shinigami-like, as opposed to Chad's hollow-like Fullbringer powers, and nobody in the Fullbring arc has called her a Fullbringer, so that would imply that they're something different, but nobodies offered any explanation yet. Are living humans with unique supernatural powers common, maybe?
