Bleach/Heartwarming: Difference between revisions

* Shortly after nearly getting himself killed saving her life from [[Big Bad|Aizen]] and [[The Dragon|Gin]], Byakuya finally told Rukia the reason why he adopted her. His deceased wife, Hisana, was Rukia's sister. Since Hisana was a commoner, Byakuya had to break the rules to marry her. At her death, she asked Byakuya to find her sister and protect her as his own sister without telling her about herself (Hisana), as she feels "unworthy" due to abandoning her. However, adopting Rukia caused him to break the rules again. Afterwards, he swore to his parents' graves that he wouldn't break any more rules. But when Rukia was sentenced to death, he didn't know what to do. Should he keep his promise with Hisana or the promise he made with his parents? Byakuya would later grab Rukia's hand and apologized sincerely to her. The fact that Rukia squeezed his offered hand tightly showed that she accepted his apology.

* This little exchange between [[Blood Knight|Kenpachi]] and [[Cheerful Child|Yachiru]].

'''Kenpachi''': Yes, me too. }}

 

* A very sweet scene happens between Orihime and Rangiku. While showering, Rangiku quietly listens in as Orihime basically admits that, while she ''is'' jealous of how close Rukia is with Ichigo, she actively ''admires and adores'' Rukia, actually ''rejects'' ever hating her - or wanting to feel jealous - at all, and even feels ''terrible'' for ever having felt jealous, lonely or inadequate. Rangiku's response: Immediately getting out of the tub and hugging Orihime, calling her silly for beating herself up about her feelings and hovering over her as she advised the girl not to be jealous of Rukia, nor to let those feelings get the better of her, reasoning that she is as equally as important to him as Rukia herself is.

* From Chapter 341:

'''Ishida''': "I would even if you hadn't asked." }}

* {{spoiler|Ichigo}} hears {{spoiler|Orihime}} shouting for him to stop. She sees him look up, and in barely intelligible language, repeats "...you. Help... you... I'll... help... you..." {{spoiler|He's practically mindless by now, and its obvious that all that is left of him is that one final impulse to protect her.}} More like Crowning Moment of Heartbreaking.

* When {{spoiler|Nelliel becomes an adult again, and after she rescues Ichigo from Nnoitra, she thanks him for protecting her, and will repay Ichigo by protecting him in turn.}}

* When Orihime is saying goodbye to Ichigo and she talks about how she wishes she could live five lifetimes to accomplish everything she wants in life. The best part is the ending.

* Yamamoto gets a minor one when, after explaining Aizen's plot to Orihime regarding the Oken, promise her that the Gotei 13 ''will'' stop him. That's unusually kind for him.

 

** The fact that {{spoiler|Ichigo has spent practically his whole life trying to protect the ones he loves with no one to protect him}}, and then seeing {{spoiler|[[Crowning Moment of Awesome|EVERYONE separating Aizen from him]], even consoling him in their own ways before heading off to face}} [[Complete Monster|that son of a bitch]] [[Tear Jerker|* sniffle* ]].

* Read chapters 385 through 387. Pick a line of Komamura's dialogue. ANY line of Komamura's dialogue, but in particular:

* Chapter 398. {{spoiler|Ichigo}}'s first reaction to finding out {{spoiler|Ishhin is a Shinigami}} is [[Bleach/Funny|hilarious.]] [http://www.mangareader.net/94-49861-10/bleach/chapter-398.html The second?] [http://www.mangareader.net/94-49861-11/bleach/chapter-398.html It's very] [http://www.mangareader.net/94-49861-12/bleach/chapter-398.html heartwarming].

** An alternate translation for the last one has Ichigo thanking his dad for hitting him because it made him "feel like he was home."

* The [[Nakama]] are back! After all of the [[Mind Rape|insanity]] of the [[Trauma Conga Line|last arc]], the first chapter of this one gives us Ichigo being cool, apparently [[The Hero]] [[Boring Invincible Hero|all by himself again]]... only for the next chapter to come out and show [[The Smart Guy|Ishida]], [[Combat Medic|Orihime]], and [[The Big Guy|Chad]] all fighting alongside him again! Yes! Finally, [[Troll|Kubo]], FINALLY!

* In 492, in between all of the craziness that {{spoiler|Allon's return}} brought, there was an oddly cute moment... {{spoiler|Before launching his massive attack on Kirge, he turns towards his three mistresses, and it seems that [[Pet the Dog|he's slightly worried for them in his own way]]. (The girls doubt it, but considering that Allon's supposed to be a totally mindless machine of destruction, it may not be THAT far off.)}}

* In 493, it doubles as a [[Tear Jerker]] as {{spoiler|[[Giant Mook|Ayon]] [[Dying Moment of Awesome|sacrifices itself]] [[Heroic Sacrifice|to prevent]] [[Amazon Brigade|Apacci, Sung-sun, and Mila-rose]] from getting killed. The scene was [[Nightmare Fuel|horrifying to say the least]].}}
