Please save Gaza!!!!

Click here to donate to Gaza, don't forget Gaza

The Nazi Israeli army began sweeping, destroying and bombing buildings on a very large scale, using weapons that we have never heard of before and that are very strange, as shown in the picture.

The Israeli incursion into the heart of Gaza City has forced countless families to flee south, leaving behind their homes, memories, and everything they hold dear. Imagine over 2 million people crammed into an area smaller than 40 kilometers, struggling to survive under constant bombardment. Streets that were once filled with life are now ruins; hospitals are overwhelmed, and basic necessities are scarce. Children are terrified, families are torn apart, and nowhere feels safe. This is not a battle it is collective punishment, a humanitarian nightmare unfolding in real time, and the world cannot turn away.

Map of Gaza City:

🔻 Blue: Fully controlled by Israeli forces

🔻 Red: Almost fully controlled by Israeli forces

🔻 Green: Currently under heavy fire, with many displaced people and civilians inside

🔻 Remaining areas: Where most of the remaining civilians are located

Okay, so I saw @a-love-transcending-time ‘s ask about the popularities of ships back in the day.

Was IchiRuki popular among manga reading fans before the anime aired?

Yes, it was. Even in Japan. To be blunt, I’d say IchiRuki fans were quick to get onboard while those who have RenRuki and or IchiOri as their preferred CPs took a while until we finally saw some fanworks in production before the anime debuted—or after certain events/milestones were shown in the manga/anime. I’ll list below to give a proper timeline with the franchise, so that it’s more visible about when stuff started coming out.

I will be using doujinshi to showcase this. Why? Because for starters, I am not going to give out fansites for fanart only to have people attack and or leave hateful messages on jp fans’ guestbooks when their sites are old and aren’t updated anymore, and these sites I am linking are secondhand. Two, producing and publishing doujinshi (fan comics) / anthologies / 4koma (4-panel comics) for people to buy speak volumes with how much effort, time, and money they put into it to publish multiple copies.

Here’s some quick statistics:

Bleach manga serialized on August 20th, 2001. Bleach anime aired on October 5th, 2004.

Inoue Orihime’s crush was made apparent in Chapter 2 and in the mini Sora arc (September 3, 2001 & October 12th, 2004 onwards respectively).

The first Deathberry titled chapter was Chapter 10, which debuted on October 29, 2001.

Abarai Renji’s first appearances were in Chapter 51 & Episode 15 (September 9, 2002 & January 18, 2005).

Renji and Rukia’s backstory was revealed in Chapter 98 & Episode 32 (August 25, 2003 & May 17, 2005).

The second Deathberry titled chapter was Chapter 151, serialized on October 18, 2004.

I’ll let the rest of the post speak for itself.

Bonuses: (or the instances where IchiRuki fandom took the extra material and ran with it with love)

March 15, 2009 (Fade to Black-based doujinshi. Theatre release was Dec 13, 2008 and the DVD released on Sept 30, 2009. Sure got on that movie fast before a hard copy of the movie was out in Japan to buy/own.)

Dec 30, 2010 (Based on the Magic Lamp episode with Genie Ruki-Ruki, the episode aired on Sept 7, 2010. That was also quick.)

October 21, 2012 (Succubus Rukia x Ichigo, either based on Kubo’s Halloween spread or the Halloween episode that aired on Jan 11, 2011, and this doujinshi was produced just close enough to the date of Halloween as a tribute.)

I’ll stop there. There’s still a ridiculous amount of doujinshi produced every single year since 2001 to present day. R-18 doujinshi became rampant starting 2006 onwards. Want a hint of what possibly sparked the sudden spike of IchiRuki doujin in 2006? Chapter 195: Death & Strawberry (reprise) debuted on Oct 3, 2005 — the “the man in my heart” speech happening shortly afterwards in the following chapter/week on Oct 10th.

Fun fact: A staff member who did the storyboards for Bleach’s anime episodes 101 and 109 did three doujinshi for the series in 2006, 2007, and 2008. You can read more about them here. Yes, this tidbit belongs under this section for a reason.

About accurate for Japan’s consistent third popular pairing in the first and 2008 polls. It continues to grow in number in 2006 - 2011, then slows to a couple a year at best since 2012. Still a fairly large number for an m/f ship totalled with a decent popularity.

Then doujinshi for this CP became more common in 2008 onwards - approximately seven years after. Still in relatively low numbers compared to other het ships.

Sites: x / x / x / x

For the record, Uryuu x Orihime has been a thing circa August 2004 and December 2004.

In conclusion:

Whether it’s explicitly romantic or not, the focus on Ichigo and Rukia’s relationship was still high and surging in the early years of the Japanese BLEACH fanbase before the anime even had a chance to air, go into filler arcs to provide extra fanservice, etc., with rapid numbers multiplying each year from different circles and artists. This pairing, you could say, has doujinshi coming out of the woodworks since day one at the first chance they got.

One final word: Have fun with free passes to doujinshi for more content. Treat yourselves and or others. Be good.

Can you tell me 5 difference of moments where Ichigo treats Rukia different then Ori

Long post ahead

1) He lets Rukia see him at his most vulnerable

Rukia was the only one that Ichigo told about 17 June being Masaki’s death date. He has talked to no one else about Masaki – not Inoue, not even Chad. More importantly, Rukia was the only one he talked to about “killing” Masaki. Imagine: this guy has been going about the past 6 years blaming himself for his mother’s death and has told NO ONE about it, not even his family. Yet he’s able to unburden himself to Rukia, someone he met mere days ago, and this later enables him to talk to Isshin about it at Masaki’s grave.

2) He threatened Byakuya over Rukia

Ichigo fought both Rukia’s and Inoue’s older brothers and takes both of them to task for wanting to kill their sisters but ONLY takes the threat towards Rukia personally. He spends more than 2 pages vowing to make Byakuya “cry while apologising” for saying he’d execute Rukia because HE “DIDN’T LIKE IT”. Pffft boi you’re so in love.

“DON’T EVER SAY THAT IN FRONT OF RUKIA AGAIN I WILL DESTROY YOUR BANKAI”

vs the fight with Sora:

3) Reflected in his eyes

Alright, maybe being reflected in someone’s eyes is more a narrative trope than how Ichigo is shown treating Rukia differently from Inoue, but you know what I mean. Inoue becomes part of the scenery to Ichigo whenever Rukia’s around (I’ll link again to this excellent post that has examples). Heck, even when Rukia’s NOT around he ignores/shows no interest in Inoue.

seven. months. He had seven Rukia-less months, with Inoue - the hottest girl in school - thirsting after him, and he was STILL indifferent towards her and unaware of her very obvious feelings for him. That’s how little interest he has in her. Also, did you guys notice that in ch 423, he didn’t even acknowledge Inoue once after waking up from his post-dangai coma, despite her shouting his name after he woke? His focus was 100% on Rukia.

Inoue herself laments that she cannot see herself reflected in K-kun’s eyes during the Grimmjow fight. whereas for Rukia:

(Also, gonna go off on a tangent and talk about the “five lifetimes” confession. If being reflected in someone’s eyes has romantic connotations, what does it mean for Inoue to be confessing to a SLEEPING Ichigo? Not only is she not “being reflected”, his eyes aren’t even open to her. The narrative emphasises over and over that Inoue’s feelings are “one way sympathies” and are not being reciprocated.)

4) Ichigo thinks about Rukia CONSTANTLY

He repeats words Rukia said to him to Isshin,

he constantly tells people Rukia is important (“She changed my destiny”)

he’s tsundere about Rukia’s absence in the FB arc, fooling absolutely no one,

and his fullbring is activated while thinking of her

I can’t think of any instance where he’s had something similar for Inoue. No internal or external dialogue about what she means to him or anything to show that she held a significant position in his thoughts or heart.

5) romantic gazes and eye smex

Ichigo gives straight-up romantic, tender gazes to Rukia with Inoue excluded in the background. Both instances here are CLEARLY romantic. The Farewell Swords/Bleach My Soul scene was so romantic that Jump Shop plastered it on their wall :’)

We know the trifle one is romantic from Inoue’s reaction. The Farewell Swords/Bleach My Soul one has shoujo bubbles around BOTH ichigo and rukia. I can’t think of any scene that has Ichigo giving romantically-coded gazes to Inoue. Not even in 686, which is especially hilarious.
