recent hitsuhina/momo things (that I just caught up on) that made me happy

Bleach High School Warfare: When I saw Momo, I *screamed*. She looks so cute, especially with her grumpy face. Momo rarely gets drawn in any extra material, so I ABSOLUTELY FReaked. When you’re a Momo fan, crumbs are practically a feast. So muuuuch potential for delinquent-disciplinary committee-childhood friends dynamics. It gives me Keiko and Yuusuke vibes 😤. I can’t believe we have an official High School!AU for them now. I need plot pleaaaase.

Bleach Brave Souls: Hinamori in her beautiful kimono for the flower viewing series. I love the colors. I love the Tobiume hair clip (seriously where does she get her personalized and customized hair clips??). She looked like how I imagined her bankai!self would look like, except with longer hair for the future.

Rebirth of Souls: Thanks to @rays-of-fire-and-ice for letting the HitsuHina community know about it! I ended up watching Toshiro’s secret story on youtube. I don’t know how different the English dub and the original Japanese version are (and I really want to knowhow it was said in the original Japanese), but I CANNOT believe (yes I can) that despite how many years later I still love hitsuhina so much. Hitsugaya once again reaffirms that Hinamori is the person who matters most to him. I love that Shinji is the one to have a hand in bringing them together (Rangiku too when she brings news that they can visit Momo in the earlier part of the story). He doesn’t need to know Momo’s lifestory, but I love that his way of making sure she’s ok is to make sure she talks and reconciles with her childhood friend. It semi-confirms what we knew all along. Shinji ships it. On a more serious note though, it makes sense that Shinji is big on communication considering his experience with his former Vice-Captain (*ahem*), but also that he along with the other Vizards know what it’s like to be robbed of their time. He knows that despite how long they have as shinigami, time is still precious and should be spent with loved ones.

Rock Musical Bleach - Arrancar The Final: I don’t know how accurate it is, since I’m just basing this on Tama-chan’s posts over at twitter. But I DID see some photos, so I was pleasantly surprised since I didn’t see her in any of the promotion materials for the musical. BUT apparently, Momo does appear in the latest RMB! (There were two cute photos of the actress playing Momo with the actor playing Hitsugaya.💕) AND OF COURSE, they had to show that heartbreaking scene (which goes to show how iconic it is). And apparently (at least according to Tama-chan’s drawing if google translate is to be believed), in the musical version, Hitsugaya continues hugging Hinamori, even after he’s been defeated by Aizen. It reminded me of @bleachbleachbleach’s fic For The Sake of the Children. Connecting it with the anime, it’s not farfetched to imagine Hitsugaya pulling himself, crawling, even bloody and one-armed to get to where Hinamori is, trying his best to heal her, channeling his own depleted reiatsu to her just to save her, get her to live, or if all hope is lost, and they’re both at death’s door anyway, to comfort himself and her that at least they’ll die together. (Great, now I made myself sad.😭)

Even while waiting for the new cour and new material, I’m happy that there’s still new stuff to get excited about for my favorite ship.

Manga panels that live rent-free in my head, Bleach edition: Shinji unveils Aizen's disguise after finishing talking to Urahara (from chapter -107 "Turn Back the Pendulum 2").

Aizen: Nobody knows where I came from I just showed up one day and started doing my thing and god was like who the hell is that I didn't invite them.

I can't personally stan Aizen for how he abused Momo but I've gotta admit he's hot as fuck
