Love Triangle or No?

[OMGORIHIMEWTF?!]

okay, so do you want a love triangle between Rukia, Orihime, and Ichigo or no? Even though Rukia and Ichigo seems to be just friends, I really hope it doesn't go this way:( . I think it would be pretty lame.

[Ciel]

i dont want this happening either, as it would become another cliche anime problem. I want Bleach to stand out from normal mangas and animes, and this would also become some romance novel. I see many of those and I dont want another.

[dash142]

I don't want one. I think Ichigo should get Orihime, and Renji gets Rukia. (They've known each other for 150 years.)

[Hitsugaya Tōshirō]

Maybe it will turn out that Tite Kubo ends up not putting anyone with anyone at all XD. That'd be suicide though on his part o_o:;..

All of them shower their affection towards the white haired, icy cold captain, slobbering him with kisses and hugs, ice-cream and candies??

Now picture them.....Hitsugaya Toshirou, Inoue Orihime, Matsumoto Rangiku and Hinamori in a hot jacuzzi bath......*drools*

That's the polygon love pairing I love to see.

Somebody's been doin' some thinkin' DX. While those pairings sound "fun" and all, there's just simply the fact of the matter, that we have NO idea of what anyone really feels besides Inoue. None of the others have said anything yet. Rukia hasn't said she likes or dislikes Ichigo directly. (Well there was the one time in the early chapters but she kinda seemd caught off guard by the moment and was a little stutterish), Renji is fond of Rukia we can tell but I'm not sure if he's said he loves her yet. Ichigo is fond of Rukia and slightly weirded out but still fond of Inoue but hasn't said anything yet. It's kinda complicated and well >>: scry that. I just wanna see the series continue without half of the fans getting all giddy everytime Rukia is next to Ichigo, or Orihime seemabely confesses her obsessive love to Ichigo DX.

[Apocalyptic Angel]

I really don't want to see this love triangle. I liked the relationship developing between Ichigo and Rukia, and as much as I dislike Inoue, I didn't mind her development with Ishida, and I wouldn't have minded seeing those two possibly get together. But of course Inoue thinks he's in love with Rukia, and is obsessed with Ichigo even though they really haven't had all that much interaction, and he's shown no interest in her past friendship at all. >_< Aw well, I suppose there's still time. It's just getting quite annoying in the mean time, IMO.

I had always somehow feel there is a special feelings for Orihime in Toshirou....I mean Hitsugaya's cold aloof behaviour, but if you get through his heart....he would somehow in his little way learns to show he care. In that just two chapters....I am touched by how Hitsugaya and Orihime interacts with each other, one fondly while the other grouchingly....even in 237, Orihime still cares/worries enough to leave Hitsugaya and Matsumoto alone. Whenever I imagine how Hitsuagaya and Inoue would behave....tears start falling. I AM SO ANGRY, FURIOUSLY ANGRY AT KUBO TAITO FOR PUSHING INOUE TOWARDS ICHIGO. Let me get a bazooka and end this bleach right now.....he did the worst....taking Inoue away from Hitsugaya and pushing her to Ichigo.

I HATE KUBO TAITO FOR THIS!!!!!

YOU SPOILED ALL MY PLANS FOR HITSUGAYA AND ORIHIME!!!!!

**crying** it's so, so sad

[SHiKaMaRi]

I don't mind a love triangle, as long as Inoue doesn't end up with Ichigo, i'm fine.

[Tsukasaa]

one of the females needs to die a Flashy bloody death, So this wont happen!

[nikuwadoko]

no love triangle please. Rukia doesn't like Ichigo the way Inoue does.

[HitsuOri]

**sighed**

How many times were there 'shipper' wars started by insensitive, immatured people lately?? That's the problem of bringing out a 'supposedly' love triangle issue.

In my opinion there was never LOVE TRIANGLE between Ichigo, Rukia and Orihime. Those who loves the idea that Orihime is a threat to IchigoRukia's supposedly 'romantic' relationship, and thus must die......please go ahead.

I wouldn't hate Rukia for affecting Ichigo and Orihime's relationship. Because I could never.....until now see her enough as the third leg/party enough to break Ichigo and Orihime's relationship/friendship.

[Juuju]

I put yes cuz it'll be more interesting. But only if it's quite subtle. Too much and it would be like a shoujo manga.

Edit: I know there probably will never be one.

[nikuwadoko]

I could see Rukia somehow intervening in this, but not as a love triangle thing. Something between her and Orihime's friendship.

[Tsukasaa]

It would be a cliche if the triangle ever happend

[HitsuOri]

It would be a cliche if the triangle ever happend
But if it is the most unlikeliest couple??

I mean.....Ichigo, Rukia and Orihime.....at the beginning of the story.....thus there must be a love triangle between the three. That would be so cliche.....

But suppose if it has all of a sudden....another man appearing and sweeping off Orihime's feet, making her so totally forget Ichigo (who Ichigo??) that's not cliche.

That's a breath of fresh air.

[nikuwadoko]

sweeps her off her feet...haha funny..but Inoue would be too stubborn to give in to any other guy.

[Apocalyptic Angel]

And Ishida weeps. He just might try it, though. xD He seemed to be developing some feelings for her.

[nikuwadoko]

Yeah, a little. But They're not a good pair imo. Like someone else said their conversations would be like Chad and Nova! lol. eg: Both Inoue and Ishida get lost in their own worlds..

[Apocalyptic Angel]

LOL! Hehe very true. But I'd honestly prefer she get with him then Ichigo, but that's all just based on personal opinion. And I'd rather see him get with someone better for him, but untill that person shows up, guess we'll just have to wait and see. :3

[nikuwadoko]

Your opinion is well-respected ^^ I prefer OriIchi but not the cheezy love triangle way! nuuuu~ lol

[yukihime]

I hate love triangles. And I agree there was never LOVE TRIANGLE between Ichigo, Rukia and Orihime.

[Elocin]

Saying there's a love triangle between Orihime, Ichigo, and Rukia is like saying there's a love triangle between Renji, Ichigo, and Rukia. I don't see one there specifically. All I see is Orihime's one-sided love for Ichigo.

[Miriam_Poland]

WTF??? OH GODS NOOO!!! never!!!! I don't want anything like that, 'cuz for me Ichigo doesn't deserve to such damned fate :[ Btw, Bleach nor in manga nor in anime isn't hentai or even ecchi, so there would be no triangles or something.

[l'irrépressible]

im telling U..its going to end up like this..spurred by inoues love for him,(he's going to KNOW eventually, n after he knows this he will go all emo n guilty n wont want to let inoue down) n most importantly spurred by his love for...ahem..the othr girl (shut up,its going to happen) it will blast him ahead to super strong mode.

the end.

[Laika]

I say no, IchiXOri that's final, Rukia is a loner.

[wr80]

Yeah she's got rukia I put no because of the recent chapter, Inoue deserves Ichigo, Rukia can protect herself or can get someone else.

[hasuke]

uh...ever since the SS arc began there's been a triangle...or have you people just not noticed it? (of course Ichigo's feelings are pretty one sided, he still has two chicks after him, making it a triangle as far as I'm concerned)

[evilMJ]

orihime and ichigo doesnt go together
i think ichigo and tatsuki or sumthin
and orihime and ishida
rukia and renji all of you kno that

there ain goin to be any triangle

[cutefox]

Well, reading this thread there don't seem to be any people who think that Rukia and Ichigo will end up together and Orihime is the one who will be intervening, so I will be the first. :biggrinki

But that is not why I am posting. I do not want a love triangle and I think what someone said before about this being neither a hentai or ecchi manga is true. Bleach would never have a love triangle because of that and also you have to take the age range into account. There are some little kids reading this, so I don't think that TK will do something like a love triangle.

Also, how does everyone know Ichigo is going to end up with Orihime? I would like to quote someone here:
While those pairings sound "fun" and all, there's just simply the fact of the matter, that we have NO idea of what anyone really feels besides Inoue. None of the others have said anything yet. Rukia hasn't said she likes or dislikes Ichigo directly. (Well there was the one time in the early chapters but she kinda seemd caught off guard by the moment and was a little stutterish), Renji is fond of Rukia we can tell but I'm not sure if he's said he loves her yet. Ichigo is fond of Rukia and slightly weirded out but still fond of Inoue but hasn't said anything yet.
I believe this to be true. We do not know anything yet! Orihime just revealed her feelings to us, not Ichigo, even though we all knew she liked Ichigo based on hints. No one knows how anyone feels in the manga yet. So stop yelling at everyone saying that it is going to be Orihime. Now, do not take that last sentence the wrong way as some of you do. That doesn't apply to those who think it is going to be Orihime. I was just saying to stop stating that it is in fact going to be Orihime. Even if she seems like the most likely, we do not know the truth or how TK is going to end it.

Now with that said, a love triangle probably won't happen nor do I want it to happen. :eek13:

[Insight]

no there shouldn't be a love triangle and i hope there isn't. i would prefer that seen as inoue loves ichigo then ichigo should end up with him. if it was rukia who loved ichigo then i would like ichigo to end up with- anything for a happy ending.
besides japenese anime and manga's tend not to do a lot of time with an actual relationship so of one does happen it will probably only come about in the last episode unless kube wants to break the mold so who knows.

[Jack Van Burace]

I also hope that they solve this in s better way, like, Rukia turns out to b just a friend, or Orihime ends up suffering 4ever, cuz Ichigo's heart belong to Rukia. Not doubtfull Ichigo, cuz he's already way too slow as he is now! lol

[Hitsugaya Tōshirō]

To me, what would be superbly fun, is that if KT doesn't pair anyone with anyone in the end. It'd be said and done, fans could continue their arguments of who is better for them, but no-one would be quite right. It'd solve everything!

[buituyenjr]

lol i want it: tousen x aizen x inoue x ichigo x rukia

[Jack Van Burace]

Hisagi and Yumichika is a promissing duo, lol

[wr80]

To me, what would be superbly fun, is that if KT doesn't pair anyone with anyone in the end. It'd be said and done, fans could continue their arguments of who is better for them, but no-one would be quite right. It'd solve everything!
How do you live with yourself? I hate people like you Anime that ends up with no love even though love was showed in the story pisses me off -.- Eureka seveN and Scryed are good examples >.< i'm still pissed about Scryed and how he didn't end up with memori

[Harumoni]

I'd really enjoy seeing Ichigo and Rukia together.

It'd be pointless to say I don't want a love triangle, because as many have said, there's already one present. I just think Orihime needs to go to Ishida. And don't let go. Besides, if I look at it personality wise, Ichigo and Orihime just doesn't feel right to me.

[EeJay]

As much as alot of people don't want it, i'd just like to see Ichigo with Orihime, and have no love triangle at all. Unless it was done really well, but so far anything in the terms of love have been very slow, and theres a good chance nothing will happen. So i'm in favour for no love triangle.

[Juuju]

To be honest, either is fine. Triangle or not (or even square, lol, Ishida involved too), as long as KT makes the story interesting and works out well, I support either.

I chose yes for triangle cus right now, a triangle will be mostly likely to settle disputes between IchiRuki and IchiOri fans. If there isn't one, the argument could go on forever....

[crafteri]

I predict where are going to see some three-some-action soon :D

[Qc0Jh1axT]

Heh. *Looks at poll* What?? :eek13:

A triangle is already present. And, who shows special feelings towards whom is also already rather obvious, though this is still debatable and highly controversial.:rolleye09

[blah]

NEVER FEAR THE AWESOME, CHARISMATIC MATCH-MAKER OF THE 21ST CENTURY IS HERE: BLAH-NONJI!

"THE CUPIDS ARE ALWAYS....WITH...YOU!!!"

BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHA

Ahem...

Rukia :biggrinlo Ichigo
Inoue :biggrinlo Sado(!)
Nemu :biggrinlo Ishida
Renji :biggrinlo tatsuki

[hikari_taicho]

I don't want one. I think Ichigo should get Orihime, and Renji gets Rukia. (They've known each other for 150 years.)
:headbang: OMGOSH YES!!! SOMEONE FINALLY AGREES WITH ME!! YAY! Really, though. Renji is SOO in love with Rukia, and it seems, from the last manga chapter it seems that Ichigo might have some feelings deep down for Inoue

[Juuju]

IchiOri forever! I thought Ichigo's reaction was really really strong as well. Don't want to get my hopes up though...

[nikuwadoko]

Ichigo's reaction was somewhat expected. like how he first saved Inoue from her hollow brother. But from the latest chapter, it doesn't really seem like Bleach is going to turn into a romance manga. As far as I'm aware of, Rukia is willing to help out Ichigo, because Rukia likes Inoue a lot as a friend too.

[ShirosAisai]

oh no never. I'd rather rukia and ichigo than ichigo and orohime. I just dont like oroxichi. It just doesnt cross my mind and it doesnt work out for me.

[~*StÓÑy RèL0ÂÐeD™]

yea i agree...ichirukia is better i think...

[Damier]

Regarding Ichigo's reaction to Inoue's disappearance: That doesn't necessarily mean he has feelings deep down for her. He clearly states she's a friend, and I undoubtedly think he'd do the same for Sado and his other male friends (which we could assume he doesn't have feelings for).

[Thelindra]

a love triangle will def make it mroe exciting for the more romantic viewers, but bleach is kinda like a action anime....romace would be scarce...

I prefer a love triangle...to complicate things >=)

[Juuju]

I know we don't have a clue what Ichigo's feelings are towards, well, anyone! But it's still nice to think he cares for 'Hime.

I wouldn't mind but I think a love triangle can make Bleach more interesting still. Of course, if it's really badly done (which I doubt since KT's amazing!) then I'd rather not.

[Lizie]

i don't think there will be pairing in bleach..but i hope its happen

[wr80]

^^You don't read manga you fail at life of course there will be pairing, anime is not good anime without pairing.

[nikuwadoko]

"all the pairings are in our minds", fangirls and fanboys :D

[Qc0Jh1axT]

I wouldn't mind but I think a love triangle can make Bleach more interesting still. Of course, if it's really badly done (which I doubt since KT's amazing!) then I'd rather not.

Well yes, Ichigo does care for Orihime, because like he said very plainly in the latest chapter, "Inoue is our comrade/friend."

They fought together in SS. It's out of character for Ichigo not to care for anyone, especially for someone who has tagged along to SS with him and gave support.

I find it interesting, though, that Ichigo has put a label to Orihime that she is a "comrade", a "friend". But he still has yet to label what Rukia is to him. He avoided the question when Ganjuu asked him, by saying he is indebted to her. He also didn't clarify with his family that Rukia is "just a friend" either, when obviously they have assumed her as having a special relationship with Ichigo. I just find that interesting. :)

Chapter 237 is just to show readers the magnitude of Orihime's love. In Chapter 238, it was clear-cut that Ichigo's reaction is very in-character and nothing out of the ordinary. Ahh and the last panel where he was looking angry. That's a very nice facial expression, I like it very much. It shows that while he understands the shinigami justice, he could not just sit around and let someone, more so, a friend die. That facial expression is very befitting for Ichigo, say, if Chad was kidnapped.

But I'm with you, though. Kubo will definitely make things interesting in the romance sub-plot. :)

[wr80]

Romance makes everything more interesting it puts a spin on a story not to mention it gives the writer aka KT more to do with Bleach.

well-said. Ichigo has been acting very accordingly, no sign of love from him yet. he does fail to label Rukia. It almost seem as he doesnt want to realize that Rukia is a friend.

[p0rkfri3drice]

very well said. ichigo has been pretty neutral if you ask me. only FC members see something going on with ichigo, if you ask me -_-

and why wouldnt you wanna see a love triangle? all this love biz makes good manga/anime, too. a lot of manga has it. it makes the story more in-depth than just the surface. makes it well-written and deep-minded imo.

[Reefern86]

here's my responce to this one.....

NO, no nonononononononononononononononononononononononono nonononononononononononononononononononononononono nonononononononononononononononononononononononono nononon,

[chiking1]

i think that Ichigo would be with Rukia, now that Orihime left... but that would suck because Rukia is Flat<highlight to here

If you judge a girl by the size of her chest, obviously your manhood is bigger than your brain. That said, your manhood can't be very big either, since you can't respect girls by their character.

[Thelindra]

ncie one ileenka ^^ i like the way u put it~~ cheers for flat girls~ (mostly asians)

[Cheryl]

Bleach has always been in the 'Action' genre, it'd be so weird if they had a love triangle flitting around the pages of the manga. (though I wouldn't mind RenjiXRukia...heheh. XD)

[~*StÓÑy RèL0ÂÐeD™]

actually, sorry, no.... i dont want the manga to move away from a great storyline to a love story...

[Juuju]

A mix of both would be welcome. Too much fighting and it'll become repetitve and boring. I hate shounen animes like Digimon which are alright for the first parts and then just seemed impossible to end. There's always some kind of bigger and stronger villain to beat. So cliched and pointless.

Rurouni Kenshin had action and romance and managed to pull it off really well.

[Mizura_Enoki]

I highly doubt the bleach manga will turn into a sappy romance shoujo love triangle.
You can tell that by the *almost non-existent* hints

But then I am a procrastinator.
If they was a love triangle IchigoxRukiaxInoue or IchigoxRukiaxRenji is most likely to happen.
Either one i don't care but as long as Ichigo doesn't end up with Inoue or Renji doesn't end up with Rukia it keeps me happy.

Inoue should go die. :whatevah:

But since you are an IchiRuki fan, I LOVE YOU! :doindadom

[Ruzz]

An anime like Bleach wouldn't have any love relationships. Anyway, I hope Inoue and Ichigo get together.

[p0rkfri3drice]

lolololol when i read chiking's comment, i thought he was saying rukia's personallity was flat.. o_0

[Undying]

Yes, more, more!!!!

Oh God, if such a thing ever happened.... I'd be very sad (because I can do absoulutly NOTHING to affect it otherwise :D). I'm praying to God every day that such a thing wouldn't happen, because then, Bleach would really have a typical love-story: main character likes girl X, girl Y likes main cahracter, and main character likes girl Y also (you can switch it with main character a girl and it'll be "boy X" and "boy Y"). This would be so lame...

[firebug]

I think its interesting though...that Ichigo's dad is a shinigami. I wonder if his mom was special too, or if she was just a human?

And if she was a human...what is Ichigo, like a half human/half shinigami hybrid?

I'd be surprised if Soul Society would allow Rukia to have a relationship with a non-pure shinigami.

[wr80]

:eek13: of course i've read manga .....i just think the writer will leave it hanging just like that...and its up to us to decide who's pairing with who.. :winking56 ( well its just me tho )
OOOO Yeah good point I just hope that it doesn't end up that way I would be extremely pissed if it was left hanging.

[p0rkfri3drice]

i agree. the things i hate about storylines the most is things left hanging. i hope one of the 2 girls just die to make it easier.

[analog]

i dont think there will be a love triangle as one of them will probably end up dieing :(

[Juuju]

The way it's going, I see that girl to be more Orihime. I'd rather let Orihime die (though I love her to bits) than Rukia die and seeing everyone mourning for her death.

[~*StÓÑy RèL0ÂÐeD™]

oh??? thought u in anti-rukia FC??? not tt i care, coz i like rukia...;]

[Juuju]

Yeah but then it would be annoying if she dies and I see everyone mourning for her death. >.< I don't want Rukia to die, more like.. disappear :)

[~*StÓÑy RèL0ÂÐeD™]

no difference...everyone will still mourn...

[l'irrépressible]

well.....if inoue dies..... tht means kubo is god.....and ichigo and rukia will be together forever.....
if rukia dies......kubo is god too.....bcoz ichigo will be so depressed he will be a bachelor forever.....tht means inoue wont get him.....ever.......
muahahahahaa
so i dont care whom dies.....

[~*StÓÑy RèL0ÂÐeD™]

man, yure just PLAIN evil... maybe kubo can do it...after the bleach anime ended..so yea..

[Juuju]

The simple answer is to let both of them live or kill both of them. :D Ichigo shall then be alone (and I'll snatch him then)

[p0rkfri3drice]

hahahahha. i cant agree with that. then it will never be tied up and it will be left hanging forever. SO NO! INOUE MUST DIE! so she can join her brother =) and i wont feel bad.

[teddyen]

it's like more than a triangel love, the way i see it...
ishida likes ori and ori likes ichigo. in the mean time, renji likes rukia and rukia like ichigo. and ichigo is just too busy to protect people that he loves and he doesn't know which one he loves more....swt...

=D

lol... it goes... ishida->ori-> ichi --?-- rukia <-renji

omg!! plz no,... tis is a good anime, dont ruin it,kubo...

[wr80]

Ruin it all he wants I say IchiXOri because they're much better couple Rukia doesn't like Ichigo that way so why do you guys insist she does?

[~*StÓÑy RèL0ÂÐeD™]

ahh...another ichiori fan here...tts the problem, ichigo doesnt like ori in the way ori likes ichi.... she is just a helpful and kind classmate to him...

[p0rkfri3drice]

i was reading all this and everyone's messages kept implying that ichigo doesnt like any of the girls at the moment. then my mind pondered......what if ichigo is gay?

[wr80]

We already discussed this, plus Kubo hasn't decided who Ichigo likes yet I think he's leaning towards Inoue and Ichigo could like Inoue that way shes the only one he treats special.

[teddyen]

i was reading all this and everyone's messages kept implying that ichigo doesnt like any of the girls at the moment. then my mind pondered......what if ichigo is gay?


*hitsu runs for his life*
*byakuya faints*
*aizen : yay! i'm gay too...*
lolx...
=D

[Juuju]

^^ Lol. To be honest, it's the suspense that's making the 'romance' (or even lack of it) in the story exciting at the mo. If Kubo reveals Ichigo's feelings for one, then woah, the other fangroup... *shudder*. And if he makes Ichigo have mixed feelings towards both Orihime and Rukia, there'd be war...

[l'irrépressible]

right now both war groups can only wait it out until kubo confirms it........u know it might even be the very last page of the very last chapter of bleach. :rolleye09

who knows,tatsuki joins ichigo force to rescue inoue.....and along the way tatsuki falls for ichigo too.........

[Tsukasaa]

ok no love traingle, will one of the girls die already for the love of god, the "Love Triangle" is the most over used Cliche in anime......and i dont know some one that stays up all night thinking "Rukia and Ichigo go really well together, but inoue has to get in the way, i wonder who he will pick..." and if some one is offended by this, They have not watched enough anime...Please dont ruin bleach!

[urusai!]

Love triangles are evil! And yes... I don't like them. I certainly don't agree with the suggestion between Orihime, Rukia and Ichigo. Personally, I don't think there's one. Below is my explanation:
- Ichigo doesn't like Orihime that way.
- Rukia likes Ichigo but isn't that kind of girl
- Ichigo doesn't seem like the 'boyfriend' type.

[Rayster]

it would be allright...

isn't there already one in the manga?

[lackykadz]

i don't want any love triangle among rukia, ichigo and orihime.

I am an ichiruki fan, so technically and obviously, i want them to end up in a romantic relationship together. But i also don't like sweet orihime to be left out... huhu... what to do? what to do?...

[ManjiSTP]

Apart from implied things, I don't want any romance between the younger characters. At that age it's all so juvenile (rightly so, as they are juvenile) and immature that it would just be tacky to see any sort of serious relationships form. Everyone at that age thinks that the girl or boy they have a crush on is "the one" and everyone who's about 21 or older is looking at them and thinking "lol - no"...

Amongst the older member I don't really mind. I wouldn't miss it, but at least if it did happen it would actually be a romance rather than puberty.

[natto]

Best ones : UraharaxYoruichixSoiFong + IchigoxRenjixByakuya *^* + IchigoxIshidaxRyuuken :'DDDDDD Ahaha *shot*

Uhhm AizenxGinxKira = ♥ as well.

I dunno about a love triangle.. uou;; I dislike Ichi/Ori, but I don't really support Ichi/Ruki (though I do like Ichi/Ruki better), and Rukia goes with Renji too. j__j;; KT may just unleash a bomb and make him like whoever,,,,,,, but depending on which he picks, it'll still be a small piece of suicide. >A<

put her with ishida! lolx...

so it's ichiruki X ishiori
now, isn't that two nice pairs?
XD

[Jack Van Burace]

Ishida and Inoue + Rukia and Renji + Chad and Matsumoto + Hitsugaia and Hinamori + Byakuya and Yamamoto + Aizen and Gin + Tousen and Komamura= Ichigo and his hand, lol!

[Kurai-chan]

Ishida and Inoue + Rukia and Renji + Chad and Matsumoto + Hitsugaia and Hinamori + Byakuya and Yamamoto + Aizen and Gin + Tousen and Komamura= Ichigo and his hand, lol!

LOL. i wonder where these pairings come from.. O.O! anyways.. a love triangle between Ichigo, Orihime, and Rukia? hmm.. i don't mind seeing one but then i think it'd be better if Kubo would only choose one of the two girls. :)

[Seilin]

I think there is one already, but I rather they don't. I might like to have a pair of lover in the story[kind of..], but just not love triangle. I think Bleach is fine without a love triangle, but I am not that against love triangle in it either because it could also make the story interesting. I doubt Kibo would make it in to a half love story though. More action is better =o

This may be off topic, but I have been wondering even more now after reading the first page of this topic, how did Hitsugaya get paired of with Inoue? That's kind of weird and random.

[Jack Van Burace]

...how did Hitsugaya get paired of with Inoue? That's kind of weird and random.
Indeed! Where did you see that? I can see Matsumoto and Chad, because she is the kind of woman who likes manly, big, latin lovers, lol! Hitsu I picture whith Hinamori, because they love each other since little. Hinamori might be, right now, seduced by the older man Aizen, but Hitsugaia will show he is enough man to take on him, or at least he hopes for it... And Inoue had that deal whith Ishida in SS, even if she came to 4get him, dreaming of Ichigo, which was only worried about Rukia. The day she comes to her senses, she would be whith Ishida. And Rukia was thrown at Renji, in a way that shows absolutely NO JEALOUSY of their proximity. Ichigo, I believe, is just a friend of Rukia. Who would date a girl so close as to live in your room? He likes her a lot, but not in love at all, even if the oposite is true. My guess is that he's still gona find out a woman for him, and both of them (Inoue and Rukia) will support each other about the loss, but eventually embrace the men that really cares for them in this way. Just like Rukia was in love and just friends whith Kaien, but he had his wife. History will repeat itself... None of them will have the man.

[Mashu-truth seeker]

I think there's been "tension" between Ichigo/Orihime/Rukia but its also there with Ishida/Orihime, Rukia/Renji and lately Ichigo/Tatsuki. When the series wraps up I predict That Orihime will be with Ishida, Rukia with Renji and Ichigo with no one or Tatsuki... Rukia is dead so Renji's about the only choice for Kubo unless he kills Ichigo off :P Ishida obviously has a deeper caring for Orihime than Ichigo and after that there's really only Ichigo and Tatsuki for a potential couple, tho I doubt it...

Anime's never have strange couplings like Hitsu/Orihime, so you can rule out all of them except for the ones that have obvious forced tension between the characters... Though in reality, I don't think they're will be any couples at the end, it just doesn't seem like that kind of anime, plus they're what...15 years old?

Of Course, beings its chapter 241, this could turn into Inuyasha length, in which case, when it finally does end, they'll be in their mid 20's :p

[Chicken Chaser]

Can't ichigo just find someone in soule society!!!

[SoundWave]

Gah.. why didn't Ichigo just hook up with Yoruichi... >.>... screw love triangles..

[marichan]

i reeeeeeeally don't want a OrihimexIchigoxRukia love triangle because.....urg!

anime/manga has enough of that!

if you want some good love triangles read ichigo 100%!

i like bleach being about the action, the suspense, the fighting, not the angst-ridden sighs, the quiet heartbreak, the tears.

if there were to be pairings tho, ichigo would definatly be in one. i dont know if it'd be rukia (which i'd like the best) but right now if it did happen i think it would be ichigoxorihime.

ichigoxtatsuki would never happen because they've known each other forever but not in that girl-next-door-way. plus tatsuki used to kick ichigos ass.

renjixrukia.....uhhhh...maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe. i think he does sorta like her but i don't think she sees him as more than the kid she grew up with.

ishidaxorihime would be really funny but way too awkward

ichigoxorihime ......gross. shes too needy and hes too insensitive.

ichigoxrukia....hmmm....he did save her life and they have that cliche boy-and-girl-fight-but-its-only-because-they-actually-secretly-like-each-other type romance but she could also turn out to be like his sister and when he ahs kids they would call her "Aunty Rukia".

w/e.. its really up to KT right now. he could satisfy the fangirls (and boys???) or he could ignore it all and keep this an action manga.

[l'irrépressible]

wtf.

why the stupid argument of 'dead' and 'alive' keeps being brought up with ichigo and rukia? isshin is DEAD masaki was alive. they had sex and gave birth to 3 children. if ichigo and rukia were not possible, kubo WOULD NOT even bother to show that isshin x masaki thing. kubo wouldn't be saying "hell, IT IS POSSIBLE for the dead and the alive to be together".

rukia is old, ichigo is young. by soul society standards, rukia is just a teenager. ukitake and shunsui are more than 2000 years old. they look like 30 year olds. ichigo marrying a great grandma? then how come ichigo being friends with renji, ikkaku and byakuya? that means ichigo's friends are all great grandpas.

love triangle? actually it goes more like this:

inoue ---> ichigo <---> rukia <---- renji

[Kurai-chan]

so.. it's a love square then? Lol. :D really.. Kubo is confusing sometimes! i don't know who is going to be with this and who is going to be with that! couldn't he just choose now? T_T but probably that's just his style so that we'd have more reason to continue watching his anime.

[sakashii]

Lol. I rkn ichigo should jst stay single and keep it just the way it is.
Also a love triangle just makes it seem like all the other animes.
Thats why I like bleach because its unique.
So no love triangles thanks! xD

[Z-man]

Yes, a love triangle would be great. And then see them fight each other. Then someone might go to the dark side and join the hollows or somfin like that.

[Mashu-truth seeker]

yes yes, Isshin is dead, his wife wasn't, and how would that have worked out anyway? So she would of died eventually wondering why in the hell her husband didn't age THEN what, he mourns and never gets remarried or goes for the next pretty lady, maybe 15 wives in he'll finally die eh? Even if Kubo put it in it doesn't mean its a good idea...

And I agree with marichan, Ichigo/Tatsuki won't happen, so in the end he'll be alone, thats my final prediction.

[Savage Dragon]

to be honest i never saw something between ichigo and rukia, they seem to have more of a good friendship or partnership rather than love interest

as for inoue now there can be some love interest

[Thelindra]

i suport lvoe triangle~ makes the story more intersting for ppl like me....

[wr80]

Romance in general does it but usually a love triangle leaves the main character either womanless or the most "liked" girl.

[Thelindra]

most likely woman-less ...keke
than the two gal will be so sad >_<

[Subaru]

I'm with those who don't want a Love triangle in Bleach. It's Ok for other series, but not this one...
Besides, the only thing we know for sure is Orihime's love for Ichigo...

[Thelindra]

i support it, but it def wun happen in Bleach, where actions speaks a lot~
maybe juz a little tiny one...

[chiking1]

I doubt there's gonna be a love triangle, because Rukia is back in Soul Society, and Inoue is prisoner in Heuco Muendo. And I don't want them to have it, because then there won't be as much fighting.

[SLVR]

I voted no. It just seems corny to me.

[OrangePanda]

Inoue may be in love with ichigo, but Ichigo is far from falling in love with neither Rukia or Inoue.

Ichigo cares about Inoue and Rukia, but not to a point that ~i wuv you lets marry and make babies~

Caring for somebody is different from falling in love.

[sephiroth454]

I think the only reason that Rukia even kind of liked Ichigo before is because he reminded her of the one dude she once killed while being controlled by a hollow (name escapes me at the moment). Inoue loves Ichigo but i think its going to be a long time before Ichigo gets smart enough to realize it

[Kratos_Kanasaki]

why don't people think of Tasuki? I mean she likes him too.

so think IchigoXOrohimeXRukiaXTasuki

[uby]

why don't people think of Tasuki? I mean she likes him too.

so think IchigoXOrohimeXRukiaXTasuki

as long as it's co-operative and not competitive -- go for it! =P

[Seilin]

What makes you think Tatsuki like Ichigo? They look more like close childhood friends and there are no proof or any kind of detail that have been showing that Tatsuki even like him a bit.

[Ryoko]

If you do not think there is some type of Love Triangle/Octagon/pentagram/watever then u are in the following:
A) Denile
B) Denile
C) Denile
D) All of the above

Of course its all subtle hints and yes the whole FC boy/Girl is blowing this outa whack. Watch the anime.... emotions are easier to pick out than on a page in a manga. Orihime deffinately has a crush on Ichigo. And Ichigo knows this shit...hes not stupid...Rukia likes Ichigo...though i think for in some form a wrong reason. atleast starting out.... the whole omfg u look like Kaien thing. Check the anime fillers....theres alotta interesting info that they actually give that was speculation....like Ichigos Bankai is unrestricted while in the real world. back on Subject....anyone ever thought about Orihime and Renji....food for thought....anyways Ichigos gonna die at the end anyways so no need to worry about it.

[Winter-war]

a love triangle would be so boring and lame and completely uncalled for

[Maunis]

I'm still waiting a hentai scene with Orihime and that Matsumoto... it was so close when Matsumoto was staying at Orihime

[ichitaichou]

NOOO i hate the idea of a love triangle! i h8 orihime period, but it does look like a love triangle is happening anyways. maybe there is something deep between ichigo and rukia, but for some reason it just wont happen, i just get that feeling. orihime has the deep feelings for ichigo, but its probably not returned (least i hope not :p). tatsuki? well she confuses me, but i cant rule her out completely; theres something there! so a love square, so to speak...interesting...

[xtrashock]

Triangle is already here !
so Rukia is 3rd corner and now depends upon Ichigo to what to do ,go for straight line or to have a turn !

[Rayster]

lol - it wouldn't be lame for a love triangle!! love stories are in everything!!! no matter how serious or comedic the show - if its a long running show there has to be something.
and yeah, in the manga, Inoue's already displayed stuff...towards Ichigo obviously...when Rukia's outta the room...
and y else would ichigo run all the way to SS getting cut and smashed an ripped apart. stop the rain ...yeah right... :p

[Nrvnqsr Chaos]

i would've votes yes if orihime wasnt in it. that stupid woman is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo dumb!!she chooses her feelings over anything!!i wish she could use her mind(if she had one)at least once!!

[rocawear09]

ok..dis is the thing...who cares who like who...but i just dont like orihime..shes fine..but in other word shes ok...rukia mored hyperactive and she make ichigo whole world different in good ways...she even lost all her power because of him....they looks pretty cute together..but she just kinda too small...for orihime she better off with ishida...he care for her i bet he does...im not worry about ichigo hurt rukia..because renji would be there with her.....i like ichigo wit rukia too.....if he end up with no one..then das is his own problem...i hate love triangle....but it better wit renji instead wit orihime.....dis is all i got to said...

[Jay3205]

Like most shounen, I doubt any "love triangle" would get resolved. Besides, it doesn't seem like Rukia loves Ichigo anyways.

[Gecko4lif]

I don't want one. I think Ichigo should get Orihime, and Renji gets Rukia. (They've known each other for 150 years.)


wow 150 years and he still hasnt made a move ... what a dork

[sweeter]

Ichigo will be wishy-washy forever so that certain fanbases don't get hurt.

But, then again, they pulled that crap with Tenchi and Ryoko, so...

[GodzillaCorleone]

there's nothing between anyone. the only one who's been shown thus far to harbor anything close to love (and by that I mean eros love, although some might argue it to be more like manic love) for another main character is Orihime.

[Kuroi Getsuga Tenshou]

So....This thread has been brought back from Dead

Man, I seriously hope for something to happen between Ichigo X Orihime
****** Fine Like MuhaFuka*

It's kinda sad that Orihime is the "ONLY" girl in this Manga that shows Love Interest in Ichigo, there should be more Ichigo Girl Fanservice...I think...

[Vinak]

I think Orihime confessed these feelings towards Ichigo only because she felt she would never see him again. And Ichigo is mostly responsible for her survival up to this point in time.

I believe Rukia and Ichigo have feelings for each other but they never express them. perhaps closer to a brother/sister relationship. they just seem to be able to know each other on a different level.

[Rhea]

Oh god no there's no love triangle. I hope one never develops either, it would cheapen the story. Besides the narrative has never suggested a love triangle anyway IMO. Ichigo and Rukia have a very close and strong friendship. He owes her a lot. If it was not for her he would not have been able to protect his family and friends, she gave him this ability. He even states this himself as his reason for going to soul society. She was a friend to him who gave him great strength. She understands the depth of Ichigo's powers and his worries better than Orihime as she can recognise these problems, she is a shinigami, Orihime is not. Rukia has great affection for Ichigo, he reminds her of Kaien. Also, Ichigo has never shown romantic tendancies from Ichigo's perspective and you need him to show love in order to get a love triangle going. He is in fact oblivious to it all.

Oh and the whole IshidaxOrihime I don't get. Ishida is very protective and respectful and caring towards all women. He has his Quincy Pride and all that jazz, and strong morals. It's not so much love but more friendship and respect IMO.

[XV Barixn]

No.

If there were couples in Bleach, imo they would be:

Ichigo and Orihime/Or maybe Tatsuki depending how plot goes

Renji/Rukia Hopefully Rukia dies though, I mean she better...

Hinamori/Hitsugaya - lol youngest couple ever

Mr. Hat and Clogs/Yoruichi

[smach]

ah i'd go for tatsuki...she's real strong and energetic, plus she's fine as hell, and she grew up with ichigo...

oh by the way did i mention that she's fine as hell?

[Fors]

Tatsuki has a thing for Orihime though...

[XV Barixn]

ah i'd go for tatsuki...she's real strong and energetic, plus she's fine as hell, and she grew up with ichigo...

oh by the way did i mention that she's fine as hell?

While I'd agree on her being rather attractive, I think fine as hell would be over-exaggerating... she being a tomboy and all...

Qu--r.

[inocho]

So....This thread has been brought back from Dead
Man, I seriously hope for something to happen between Ichigo X Orihime
****** Fine Like MuhaFuka*
It's kinda sad that Orihime is the "ONLY" girl in this Manga that shows Love Interest in Ichigo, there should be more Ichigo Girl Fanservice...I think...
Even after now, there is still no 'love confession' from Ichigo to Rukia or Rukia to Ichigo to make it a love triangle:rolleye09

I know! Maybe after Rukia sees how Ichigo treats Orihime(loving/tenderly), jealousy fills her heart and Ichigo sees the hurt look on Rukia's face and starts to regret, dropping Orihime on the floor.:Haha

[Sharpie_x]

I don't know but it seems awkward that there would be a love triangle know that Orihime seems to be Ichigo's love interest, however there could be still chances for Rukia :P Maybe Renji might end up with Rukia.... :)

[smach]

While I'd agree on her being rather attractive, I think fine as hell would be over-exaggerating... she being a tomboy and all...
Qu--r.
lol tomboy chics are the best coz they understand you the most...no mixed messages like with normal chics...plus they don't ask for much...which is what makes her the best one to go out with. although it would also be real nice if she was a little more feminine. but at the same time she's the type that could probably get you to pass out from exhaustion lol.

[Rukia34]

I think that there is a love triangle there and i personally i hate orihime b/c shes always so weird and always wants to please ppl and when she doesn't please ppl she gets all depressed and shit. ichigoxrukia 4 eva!!^^

[smach]

haha that's her strong point, one of the good qualities she has: she'll always go out of her way to please you, which makes you want her even more.

[annboo23]

i personally like ichiruki...and from the openings and endings theme they have always end with ichigo and rukia standing/lying next to each other...so that rite there is already a big hint...so im rooting for them all the way...and yes there is a triangle whether we like it or not...

[Miyagi Rikku]

IMO. :3

Orihime doesnt deserve Ichigo.
Ichigo doesnt deserve Rukia nor Orihime
Rukia is too good for anyone. *smirks* >;3

[smach]

lol nice avy miyagi

[leprousharry]

I don't want a love triangle, and I would prefer that Orihime ends up with Ichigo. But let me show how I think things could happen:

Tatsuki -> Orihime / Ichigo
Ishida -> Orihime
Grimmjow -> Orihime
Orihime -> Ichigo / Orihime -> Grimmjow

Renji -> Rukia
Rukia -> Ichigo

Ichigo -> No one / Yoruichi / Rukia
Yoruichi -> Urahara
Urahara -> Yoruichi

Gin -> Matsumoto
Matsumoto -> Hitsugaya / Gin
Hitsugaya -> Momo / Matsumoto
Momo -> Hitsugaya / Aizen
Aizen -> Aizen / Orihime

Shunsui -> Nanao
Nanao -> No one / Shunsui

Edit: Please note that I don't want it to happen, but if there was something, it could be like that.

[Kuroi Getsuga Tenshou]

Ichigo builds his own Harem > The END!

[smach]

lol yea!!!

[Miyagi Rikku]

ok heres my part.

Orihime - Ulquiorra
Ichigo - HIMSELF~
Rukia - no one deserves her ok!?
Yoruichi - Urahara
Hitsuyaga - Hinamori
Gin - Matsumoto

smacharia8> thanks :D

[me551ah]

how bout a triangle between Ulquiorra, Grimmijow and Orihime

Ulquiorra : "I took care of you for all these days. Made sure that you eat your food. Bought you here safe and sound. Choose me"

Grimmijow : " Don't listen to him. He's an emo. I was the one who saved you from Loli and Menolly remember"

Innoue : "Yea f**k Ichigo. He's weak anyway."

After that 10 chapters on how Grimm and Ulqi go around impressing Orihime.
:toocool:

[smach]

lol orihime can never argue so here's how it'll go

Ulquiorra : "I took care of you for all these days. Made sure that you eat your food. Bought you here safe and sound. Choose me"

Grimmijow : " Don't listen to him. He's an emo. I was the one who saved you from Loli and Menolly remember"

Orihime: uuuuhhh.....uuuummmmm...

grimjow: then it's decided!!! *pounces on orihime*

ulquiora: pffttt, this is pointless...*finding this little competition to be meaningless, he decides to go his own way* whatever, i'll just go find me another chic then.


*then doujin starts of inoue and grimjow*

[Undying]

Ulqiorra will jump Halibel. End of story.

[smach]

who's that, the hot espada? omg i'd pick her over orihime too.

[kuvli]

only ichiXrukia....and ishidaXinoue...though she irritates me like heck....

[Kay™]

its obvious it is a 4 square lol well yea not three triangle....ichigo have feeling with rukia,as comrade and friend but to inoue...friend perhaps...but inoue does show her affection toward ichigo

[Undying]

Ichigo -> Inoue

Renji -> Rukia

Ishida -> Chad

Everything fits.

[Darkwiz34]

I wouldnt mind if Inoue goes with Ichigo. She isnt irritating to me...

[Pampa Wayt]

heh, it's cool to see that the ratio of people not liking the thought of lovey-dovey in bleach to the ones who like it is 2:1...... :Domo

bleach would really be sucky if it turns out as a cliched romance anime.... :sad

[FullMetal Rebel]

If that happened then bleach would be eureka seven with blades -.-

[smach]

yea but i doubt it would even get close to the awesomeness of eureka 7. that show made me cry in those last three eps, and also when ray and her husband died, and the guy in that farm-like place with a chic that looked like renton's sister.

[FullMetal Rebel]

And the Triangle doesn't exist at all,because it's obvious Rukia already loves someone.......Renji

[silverwolf801]

ok OMGORIHIMEWTF?! I don't know how you knew that thi smight happen but it has. Ichigo is a stupid %$%^&$*&%*& he better pick big boobie chan over flaty mc flat flat. I swear I will be so pissed if he doesn't. And if he doesn't orihime and matsumoto better get together or there are going to be some problems with me and bleach.

[Gojira]

Yeah... I don't think Bleach is gonna be that kind of show. They might go as far as hint that there are feelings but I don't think they'll ever pursue it and make a romance. Besides, just seeing how Ichigo gets around half naked chicks is hilarious... Yoruichi? I don't think he's thinking about booty at all.

[Sobre Hielo]

I say bollocks to IchiRuki/Hime/RukiRenji!

Threesomes all around!

Foursomes!

[Miyagi Rikku]

Psh, renji is like ichigo. neither of them deserve Rukia T^T Rukia is my goddess

[pichupintos]

There needs to be a love traingle...otherwise, we never see rukia and orihime fight over ichigo!

[smach]

i don't know about you guys but i'm starting to think ichi/ori pairing might end up working coz even back when grimjow was around she's always been thinking of helping 'making the rain stop in ichigo's life', but that's just me...

[smile_4me]

Well sorry..i like to keep Ichigo to Rukia. I just don't think Orihime and Ichigo would work out. I'd rather see Orihime end up with Ishida. Their pairing looked good in the SS arc. Anyway, it's so obvious in the manga that Ichigo and Rukia are totally made for each other...so for me no love triangles.

[Kuroi Getsuga Tenshou]

i'm feeling yammy x orhime more at the moment. yammy hasn't splatted her head into her spine yet,
which is a sign he's softening towards her.

although i'd note that bleach takes illogical turns at times.
i still can't get over how renji first appeared, almost chopping off rukia's head,
then later we find out they're once best friends??
what? or byakuka's psychobabble about how he can't break rules or he must follow hisana's wishes.
no wonder byakuka keeps his mouth shut, he doesn't make sense when he starts flapping his lips.

[Daikatana]

ok OMGORIHIMEWTF?! I don't know how you knew that thi smight happen but it has. Ichigo is a stupid %$%^&$*&%*& he better pick big boobie chan over flaty mc flat flat. I swear I will be so pissed if he doesn't. And if he doesn't orihime and matsumoto better get together or there are going to be some problems with me and bleach.
Man that so made me ROFL!:Haha
Same thing can be said for Naruto too. :Haha :Haha

You absolutely win!
On the lighter side of things...
I have a feeling Rukia might play a role if IchiOri happens. For example when Rukia dragged Ichi to Orihime to apologize for being an idiot and a weakling. I can see the same thing happening where she drags his ass back to Orihime to apologize for some other incident, and to make up for it he has to ask her on a date. :headbang LOL

[Mougly]

yea but i doubt it would even get close to the awesomeness of eureka 7. that show made me cry in those last three eps, and also when ray and her husband died, and the guy in that farm-like place with a chic that looked like renton's sister.
Great now i can't watch eureka 7 :(....

[nx6]

If that happened then bleach would be eureka seven with blades -.-

LOL.

Not sure I want to see a love triangle of Orihime x Ichigo x Rukia. It's going to be hard to avoid one with Ichigo and Rukia getting closer and Orihime having fallen so hard for him.

I think an Orihime x Chad pair up would be interesting.

[Undying]

Rukia will bring Ichigo and Orihime together.

By dying.

She'll die.

And then Ichigo will jump Inoue.

[Hime-chan]

Rukia will bring Ichigo and Orihime together.

hahaha that's funny and mean ...i hope she doesn't die, anyway i really hope that there's no love triangle, i'm more of a ichihime shipper,but to be honest i really don't think it'll be any romance, so let's just see how all of this plays out okay.

[Warchef]

Ichigo --> Rukia
Ishida--> Inoue

Those are the pretty basic pairings thrown out by most Bleach fans, and are kind of redundant but what the hey? I just go by what I read in the manga.

[LeonMorado]

i've never liked ishida X orihime. there's really nothing to support it and it just doesn't seem work for me. renji X rukia and rangiku X gin are my personal favs, you can't go against the childhood friends. with orihime i'd say ichigo, but i'm still rooting for chizuru on the inside. she just tries so hard. i miss chizuru.

[Vicent]

Rukia does not like Ichigo... Rukias is obssesed with "ohhh~~~ Kaien-dono"...

please dunt start with the pairings... you will lure out the fan girls from their caves and will start fan-yaoing the characters of bleach... *scares to death* *covers under bed*

[LeonMorado]

i love shippers. they take fandom to a whole new level of crazy.

[sophos]

Ichigo --> Rukia
Ishida--> Inoue
wtf?
Not a single moment in Bleach can be construed to suggest that. There's more evidence against it. Ex. ORIHIME IS IN LOVE WITH ICHIGO Ex.2 Ishida makes a pretty dress for Rukia and Orihime figures out that it's because Ishida likes Rukia, then Ishida lets out a yelp when he sees Rukia in school after she comes back without warning. Ex.3 Ichigo is constantly frustrated with Rukia, but shows nothing but respect for Orihime Ex.4 Ichigo and Orihime are young, living humans, while Rukia is a 50 year old shinigami spirit in a gigai; it's probably not even possible to for them to date. Ex.5 Bleach ch196 Rukia pretty much shoves Ichigo in Orihime's face... Now, if Rukia and Ichigo had any hint of feelings for each other, this scene would not have happened.

Same Chapter page 14, during her pep talk she did tell him that he lives in her heart... that could also be romanticized since we can't really dictate the tone it was spoken in. Rangiku also thinks Ichigo is kinda attractive. jk but no seriously I agree that Ichigo and Orihime should be together cause well they're both alive and around the same age. If i were him though id go with Tatsuki and if it had to be a shinigami definitely Rangiku. (who wants byakuya all in your business?)

[VIDTID]

Lol i wouldnt mind a love triangle as long as hime gets ichigo in the end :p
Rukia and Renji FTW \o/

i agree with your pairings, but not for any of the reasons you listed. you make it sound like ichigo and rukia can't stand each other. it looks to me like he relationship with her is actually along the exact same lines is his family. she's more like an older sister than anything else.

and there's really nothing to suggest ishida or rukia like each other at all. if he's got any ship going for him at all, it's with nemu.

[MetalSpawn]

A love triangle would make bleach too soppy so i really hope it does not happen unless they fall for each other then the two girls die so ichigo gets supper mad and just goes mad and kills everyone(at least if this happens ichigo will not have that "I must save everyone"prediciment because they will all be dead LOL)

[Codename]

Ichigo definitely needs to be with Nel, I mean come on, Vizard & Arrancar. Have weird little super mutant babies or something.

Orihime needs to realize she's actually been in love with Tatsuki, she is basically just a female version of Ichigo.

[Sushi]

I feel bad for Orihime, because she likes Ichigo but Ichigo isn't returning the love. Other than that I really don't see much or any romance happening in Bleach.

However if a romance were to happen, I'd like to see an IchiRuki one. They work well together imo.

thank you! nel X ichigo just doesn't work on any level.

[Codename]

Dude think about it, Ichigo's hollow is like a Lizard-man, and she's a centaur. Just picture in your head. The lower body of a centaur with a sharp-stabby tail, the upper body of a lizard with fangs. Super super bad-ass. They should get together just based on that alone.

some kind of reptaur? no.

sorry, it's just not doin' it for me.

....although, despite being wholeheartedly opposed to the ship, i do think it should now be called reptaur.

[Chi]

You guys are crazy... If ichigo gets with Rukia thats like the Ultimate level of necrophelia. For that matter so is the "reptaur idea."

Second, can souls in soul society have babies or something? Because i was a little confused by Byakuya's statement "that only those born into the Noble houses posses rieatsu strong enough to attain bankai." I would have thought that as souls enter soul society they would get "drafted" or "adopted" into the noble houses kinda like how Rukia was but his statement threw me off.

[Warchef]

For christ's sakes, there are some idiots on this forum.

Necrophilia is sex with a dead corpse. As in a physical corpse. Rukia is a spirit and a gigai is a living vessel for a shinigami to use for a short time on missions into the human world. It isn't a corpse. So it's not necrophilia.

Vocabulary: Learn it and grow.

you're right about the necrophilia, but there's really no need to be an ass about it.

[Chi]

So you can't think of anything better to say so you attempt at trying to insult me... Really mature. She's a spirit because she died from the human world and went to soul society as a spirit no matter how you look at she's dead... and since she's probably two hundred years dead I specifically said the Ultimate level of Necrophilia as in not your everyday run of the mill molestation of a corpse. Whether she's in a gigai or not its still is... you know what I am not going to bother.

[Rayster]

^lol.

Anyway. Enough one liners and spam to warrant this move to Bleach randomness

wtf?
Not a single moment in Bleach can be construed to suggest that.
Actually the SS arc had some pretty basic moments to allow for this pairing. The whole Ishida saving Inoue thing when they first entered (the guy tried to smash Inoue when ishida wasn't looking, and our Quincy "flashed" in front of her to kill the dude).

Not to mention the scenes later on, when the shinigami is trying to take Inoue back to his joint. ishida steps in between them and tells the guy off for trying to seduce her

lastly they share a few comical scenes, such as when they have to change clothes - still during SS arc.


Also, the fact that ichigo and ishida are pretty much rivals guarantees there'll be tension between the girl they both know. (this also qualifies between renji and ichigo = rukia)

Saying that "inoue loves ichigo" doesn't mean anything, because yeah she does, but that's wat a love TRIANGLE is supposed to be. She doesn't see Ishida at all. Atm.



Denying that any of the following pairings exist:

Ichigo x Inoue, Ichigo x Rukia, Renji x Rukia, and Inoue x Ishida


is very ignorant. Because the authour, Kubo, has thrown enough ambiguities to keep everyone guessing as to the r/ships.

It's a very common writing device to keep readers entertained in one or the other aspect of the story - so in case his manga gets boring etc, he still has fan bases for multiple characters and their pairings, and garners enough interest in it to keep going.

[Warchef]

Whether she's in a gigai or not its still is... you know what I am not going to bother.

I'm sorry, I'm pissed because I'm doing Chem II Problem sets atm.

Rukia is 150 years in human years, but beings age 10 times slower in Soul Society which means she is actually Ichigo and Inoue's age.

It isn't necrophilia if there isn't a corpse involved. The definition is pretty rigid in what constitutes necrophilia, and I'm pretty darn positive that having sexual relations with a dead person, when Ichigo, is for all intents and purposes dead as well, is really short-sighted.

That's what you fail to realize. Ichigo is NOT a normal human being. Inoue, Chad, even Ishida to an extent (although he comes from a line of Quincy) are normal humans. Afaik, they weren't able to see spirits until Ichigo's uncontrollable reiatsu awakened powers in them. Notice how Ichigo is the only one that wears a shihakshou out of that bunch as well, as Inoue, Ishida, and Chad wore their normal living world clothes.

And as the person above me stated, denying Ichigo x Rukia or any other pairing at this point in time is ridiculous.

[Chi]

Its ok, i hold no grudges. And for chem II you should check out smarthinking.com

I do respect your opinion but I don't know if i can agree that Ichigo is dead because he has shinigami powers. If that were true then SS wouldn't have sent him back to the real world. And SS along with Aizen and company wouldn't call Ichigo and his crew the humans. They would say... something else like the Humans led by a semi dead guy with Shinigami powers.

[Warchef]

However, if you remember episode 18-19, Urahara severed Ichigo's soul chain, which cut him off from his human body. Basically, Ichigo is a dead person living in a permanent gigai, much like Isshin.

[Chi]

Which brings me back to my other question, can souls in soul society have babies or something? Because i was a little confused by Byakuya's statement "that only those born into the Noble houses posses rieatsu strong enough to attain bankai." I would have thought that as souls enter soul society they would get "drafted" or "adopted" into the noble houses kinda like how Rukia was but his statement threw me off. Then there's Isshin who's a soul but had kids in the real world!

Moreover if they (ichigo and his dad) die do they go to that place in the bleah movie Memories of nobody? or do they go (back) to soul society?

[Warchef]

I'm not quite sure, but if you want to go out on a limb, Byakuya's statement implies that Isshin possibly was a noble and Ichigo thus had the energy to attain bankai. Then again, Renji is a "street rat" from the slums of Rukongai, which suggests that Byakuya didn't know what he was talking about.


Moreover, the only permanent way to kill a shinigami is to sever their head. Which means I assume that Ichigo will either go to Soul Society or possibly reincarnate again on Earth.

I would assume his statement, it is possible for them to have children. Since it never showed how Rukia 'died' and went to SS either. She just seemed to be born there and abadoned by her folks.

I wasn't going to make the Rugrats reference.

It may feel wrong, but it looks so right.

[Shihouin Yoruichi]

I think Ichigo should go with Orihime!! :biggrinlo And if it doesn't turn out that way, she should at least get Grimmjow or Ulqiorra. They seem to care about her too :redbiggri

[Chi]

So then the explanation that Shibata (early bleach the little kids soul stuck in the bird being chased by a hollow that went to hell) told us kinda doesn't support that logic. Abaout how they get adopted once they get into soul society because its too big to find their old families.

I didn't say it's either one or the other. Souls come. Souls can be born.

[Chi]

^^So when souls die they go to the real world and when the real world dies they go to soul society?

I think the real love triangle should involve Tasuki ariwa, can't wait to see what her powers are going to be after training with Urahara... It should be Tasuki, Orihime and Ichigo love triangle.
