Мыши плакали, кололись, но продолжали рисовать без референсов =) Нашла очередной недопиленный ичирук черте- какой давности, решила слегка его облагородить и выпустить в люди. Так что вот. ______________________ Another old scetch with Ichiruki-headcanon)) Decided to finish it. Well... or something like that =D

☾ For the IchiRuki Archive ☀ -> Deathberry.com: a website that ran for a few years (approximately 2012 to 2017) & served as a forum for ichiruki fans to discuss and chat with each other, both about IR as well as other topics/manga. The first two images are what the site looked like, the first version and then updated. The last one was my signature. They had a very fun option for users to submit their favorite bleach chapter, quote, and image and have it turned into a stamp you can use in your signature. The top left corner was your favored chapter, top right is your favorite quote, bottom left was the Deathberry logo, and bottom right was your username (mine was Mira-hime), as well as your birthday (04/21) and your number. I was user 160. ♡♡

Me rambling about this panel because it still drives me crazy

Rukia crying and screaming at Ichigo telling him she doesn't want to live anymore.

But Ichigo can see right through her act

.....

From the beginning, Rukia knew that Ichigo could get killed if he followed her to the Soul Society. That's why, she decided to accept her heavy sentence if it were to make the gotei 13 spare his life

However, ironically, within the deepest part of her soul, Rukia still wished for Ichigo to succeed

She still wished for him to save her

For the sole purpose she could live and see him again, the one person who makes "her heart linger in this world"

...

Rukia, for the first time in her life, unconsciously allowed herself to be selfish.

She was so happy to hear that despite all those hardships awaiting him, Ichigo still came for her.

and Ichigo knows that.

He knows her like a book.

Despite being oblivious to the details, he figured out that Rukia has burdens holding back her will to live.

He knows that despite her past demons, Rukia is someone who wants to break free of those self imposed chains

Ichigo knows it very well

Because he is exactly the same

And he's looking at her with this intense yet soft stare like saying

"I know you"

"I knows what it means to selfishly want to keep on hoping while hating yourself to the core"

"I know what it means to live as a burden"

"I know what it feels when thinking you don't deserve a second chance"

"but It's okay now because you're not alone anymore"

"You are the reason I threw away my fears and regained faith in life."

"I will unconditionally do the same for you"

"You deserve to be happy. "

"You deserve to hope."

"Don't feel guilty about being alive."

"If you don't want to admit that you're not ready to give up on life"

"Then I will annihilate everything that is holding you back "

"And I will be the honest one between the two of us"

"and say it out loudly"

"I won't give up on you Rukia"

"You can yell at me as much as you want later"

#ichigoxrukia : nothing but you can change me #ichiruki #The last line is actually a real quote from the bridge reunion scene

Whom do you ship: ichigoxorihime or ichigoxrukia??

I think ichirukia. I just feel like it's so much more organic and not forced.

You can’t compare ChihayaxArata to IchigoxRukia. The latter was never going to happen because Kubo wanted them to just be close nakama, but ChihayaxArata seemed likely to happen in the end because they held mutual romantic feelings for each other or at least it seemed that way up until the final chapter. Plus the bond between IR is constantly highlighted due to being the main MCs, CA never got such dedication in the story. Arata isn’t even in Chihayas victory photo in the end so it feels like their bond is less than. I say this as someone that I shipped ArataxChihaya along with IchigoxOrihime that the comparison is just not it.

i'm not really trying to map them onto each other fact-to-fact though, the contextual circumstances are obv starkly different. i'm more interested in drawing a comparison on the basis of how fandom perceives a romantic relationship as being the ultimate and only testament to the strength of a bond between two people, and the lack of one being established between any two characters somehow implying that everything they've been through together is retroactively diminished in importance and value. it's true that ichigo and rukia are distinct in that they had no romantic feelings for each other, but what i find interesting is that people assumed they were meant to be simply by virtue of the depth of their relationship and importance to each other, as if a romance would be the only way in which to allow such depth of a relationship to culminate. them not ending up together didn't diminish their bond in any way. everything that they went through was still there and lent importance to how deeply they cared for and relied on each other. even kubo said it was a relationship that went beyond friendship, but people seemed to believe the only implied meaning of such a statement was to assume the bond was romantic, as if a platonic relationship couldn't maintain that level of depth in its own way

that's the crux of what i'm getting at with the comparison. i don't really agree that chihaya and arata's relationship is suddenly diminished in value bc they didn't end up together romantically, even if chihaya did have romantic feelings for him at one point. regardless of how those feelings shifted and changed on her part, arata remained a hugely important person in her life and their bond with and support of each other was heavily centered in the final arc of the manga. it's clear that bond will continue to strengthen as they support and challenge each other in their newfound positions as meijin and queen. i know people were upset about the final photograph but i personally think its implications were exaggerated, esp since shinobu wasn't in the photograph either. the focus of that photograph was chihaya's immediate support structure wrt her training. arata likely also took a photograph with his immediate support structure, inclusive of his family, his neighbors, his friends, and the people from his karuta society. those are distinct spheres in chihaya and arata's lives, but their lack of inclusion in them doesn't suddenly diminish the unique bond that they have with each other in a different context. people have different groups of friends and different relationships with people in their lives. i don't think we're supposed to suddenly take the fact that he's not in a picture as implying he means less when everything about the manga that came prior proves that's untrue. it feels like a really silly conclusion to make, and i would have said as much had the series concluded in the reverse with taichi being the person who was "left out". i don't think there's any benefit to perceiving relationships in this way and that's really my central gripe with the fandom in general

Violeta e laranja

read it on the AO3 at https://ift.tt/g8udxnI

by HimeHana

Ichigo e Rukia eram como duas cores, quente e fria, laranja e violeta, combinando-se de um modo harmonioso, apesar das diferenças. Violeta é uma cor misteriosa que vem antes da escuridão, pensando sobre o violeta era fácil lembrar de mistério, anoitecer, elegância, sensualidade, magia. Laranja é uma cor chamativa, que salta aos olhos, remete a luz, sol, calor, energia, aconchego. E quem diria que a combinação é perfeita.

A two part analysis about Ichigo's fake emotional dependency and how beautifully Kub0 resolved it

I wrote this meta to criticize an aspect of IR relationship that is hardly considered a matter of concern.

It's the " Ichigo being a lost puppy without Rukia" trope

If you don't find any problem with it, then please ignore this post because it will be a waste of your time

Introduction

What I love the most in ichiruki is their trust for each other and how they both inspire joy, hope and courage for each other mutually .

The lost puppy trope contradicts this notion in one way or another since it doesn't put their importance for the other in an equal footing.

That's why I started pondering how this unpleasant frame of mind was established

Is it true that Ichigo's lost without Rukia ?

If anything the last arc proves he wasn't.

so what does that leave ?

does that mean that she's no longer important to him ? Or was this mindset fictious in the first place ?

This is just a personal interpretation. I'm not claiming I can read Kub0's mind (I wish I could)

First of all, I'll start with the chapter that prompted that idea in the first place

It's strange how the world keeps rotating without you

"It's a strange feeling.

Nothing seems out of place.

Even without Rukia, our world still keeps turning.

That's right.Rukia was originally from Soul Society (there). From the very start, there was never really a place where she belonged here

............if that's the case, what should I do?"

Kurosaki Ichigo, chapter 58

After Rukia was abducted, Ichigo was confused about how the world could continue to operate normally when she wasn't around.

In fact, while everyone was dealing with his life normally, he couldn't

It's a strange feeling.

Nothing seems out of place.

Even without Rukia, our world still keeps turning.

What Ichigo failed to understand was that there was no reason why the world wouldn't rotate normally without one person.

He was the problem here

The reason he felt that way was simply because he was extremely saddened that Rukia was not by his side

The feeling he felt was so immense and so new to him that he couldn't associate it with any other thing he felt before.

Since he was oblivious to the depth of his feelings at that time, he couldn't fathom the reason behind all his melancholia.

Someone as clueless as him could just deduce from all this that he should just bring her back to Karakura so that the world "can function properly again".

And that's it. End of the drama

However, as I explained here, Ichigo can't be selfish when it comes to Rukia.

That's right.

Rukia was originally from Soul Society (there).

From the very start, there was never really a place where she belonged here

He respects her individuality too much to do that.

He refused to let himself selfishly decide a fate for her (after saving her that is) just because the world felt odd without her

But at the same time, he wanted to understand why he felt that Rukia belonged here in this world when she was originally from another place

(spoiler alert he will realise it after 400 chapters)

............if that's the case, what should I do?"

Orhime unintentionally made him realise that the most important thing for now was not to ponder how the world could rotate without her but refocusing his attention on keeping Rukia alive and safe

And if Ichigo was sure of one thing, it was that the safest place for Rukia to be was by his side ( since he assumed everyone in SS wanted her dead)

He deduced that the reason he felt Rukia belonged here (with him) was because he was prioritising her safety (*)

Before he could give any closure to his confusion, Ichigo changed his train of thoughts and set his mind on one goal: after saving her, he would bring Rukia back to safety (by his side)

That's it. He just wants her to be safe with him... that's why he felt she belonged here no other reason

However, at the end, Rukia decided to stay in SS

.....

....

...

Rukia being separated from Ichigo at the end of the SS arc is one of the best decisions Kub0 has ever made.

First of all, it made Ichigo aware why he wanted to save Rukia. Her being denied of hope is what triggered him to do his best for her.

And I'm pretty sure that blockhead would never understand that if Rukia were to return home with him.

Secondly, Rukia knew Ichigo wanted her to go back with him and was expecting to be saddened by this news.

By witnessing how he accepted her decision without any questioning, Rukia was made aware about how unconditional Ichigo's feelings are.

Last but not least, it forced Ichigo to slowly realise what the whole thing about the world couldn't rotate without Rukia actually meant

Again I'll emphasize slooooowly.

At first, he got it wrong again

At the beginning of the arrancar arc, when Ichigo didn't think he could win against his hollow, once Rukia expressed her admiration towards him, he became self confident again.

Rukia's trust and opinion meant much more to him than his own impression of himself

Rukia's presence inspired him to be hopeful and courageous. From then, Ichigo deluded himself into thinking that what he felt at that time meant simply that Rukia was his anchor

That isn't of course totally false since Morita agreed on that but it's also can't summarized the depth of his feelings for her

However, by assuming that Rukia was so pivotal in his mental health, he was both belittling himself and her since she does have a life outside their relationship.

In short, he didn't learn jack shit

and his way of coping with his obliviousness was becoming a bit counterproductive as shown in this infamous poem

I can't go on in a world without you

This poem is very similar to his thoughts when Rukia was abducted but this one is a bit self conscious ( at last !!!!!)

This time, Ichigo understood that the reason he felt the world couldn't rotate properly was stemed from him.

He was the one who couldn't keep up with its speed when Rukia isn't by his side

This can be cute in some ways but as I said, this isn't the aim of my meta

Just like when Rukia was abducted, he was finding excuses to explain feelings he never experienced before

Now, Ichigo could only justify his emotions for Rukia with the fact that he can't function properly without her, plain simple.

Even, other translations claim the original japanese text could even mean that he was rather unwilling to even try

And that goes well with my personal theory which is pretty much the heart of this analysis

Ichigo wasn't dependent on Rukia by need but by choice

His low self esteem and insecurity weren't the only reason why he felt worthless when she wasn't by his side.

I think Ichigo unconsciously wanted to be dependent on Rukia because he wanted her to feel as if he needed her :

He wanted her to have a reason to stay by his side because he was afraid of losing her.

(the same reason orhime wants to be dependent on Ichigo and that's for another topic)

However, he never seriously acted on this seemingly selfish thought because as I said Ichigo can't help but be selfless when it comes to Rukia

But he doesn't want to lose her either.

I know I already linked this post but I explain here in depth my own perception of the duality of his feelings

And when he lost his powers, he lost Rukia too.

Part 2

...

(*) This is how I understood that scene, the anime team, on the other hand, had a different interpretation but in my humble opinion, it's out of character for dumbass Ichigo to be this self aware at this stage of the manga
