Anyone else notice that ichigo has recently started calling Inoue, "Inoue" instead of "Orihime" like how he used to?? could mean something... O.o?

even though i would like a Rukia x Ichigo paring i would have to say that my favorite paring is a Inoue x Ichigo pare.

a possible meaning to this is somewhat of a "protectors" complex. when he was in soul society he basically only thought of rukia. now the same thing is happening with inoue. saying that right now since he is on a mission to save her, so he can only think of her.

i personally want the ichigo x inoue pairing, and want the hoples romantic part to come true 😀 but this is just to be the devils advicate.

InouexIchigo is my favorite pairing in this story, I just sorta see Rukia as too emotionless at times, Inoue though is a goofball most of the time, but before she was taken to mundo you saw her true serious side. But I am very interested in seeing what will happen when Inoue gets a chance to talk to Ichigo after she sees him in hollow form.

"Let's put a smile on that face."

she looked pretty shocked to see him in hollow form in chp 281 O.o

i think that once she gets over the initial shock though shell just see him as normal...btw didnt he seem kinda sad to show inoue his hollow form?

Ehhh.. you lie!

inoue will be killed off. since rukia isn't normal she won't count. and good ol tatsuki will care for ichi. plus she has powers too! they just haven't shown it yet. u'll see! it'll all come to pass. this is the ichi prophecies! 😀 XD lmao

id rather see a rukia/ichigo pairing first off
@varna, what makes you think inoue will die? I can see it happening but i havent caught any hints of it or anything

lol this is how mine would go..
ichihime > ichitatsuki > ichirukia
i wouldnt exactly mind ichigo and tatsuki but i cant really see rukia lol

anyways...i can also see inoue dying (slim possibility or her sacrificing herself or something) but i think ichigo will do something to prevent it or something

was discussing the killed off character with a buddy of mine a while ago, I honestly think its gonna be Inoue or Chad, seeing as both of them would have a huge impact on everyone in the story. But im getting a little inclined to actually believe Rukia is the one killed off in the end.

Resolves the difficulties of her and the whole do i choose soul society or ichigo and it would be a huge impact on the series kinda like when the friendly commander from full metal alch died half way through series.

"Let's put a smile on that face."

oh idk about the dying. i just think it's getting close to that time that they will kill off a main cast member. i was just joking at first but if they did it would almost be perfect.

in an off chance that they do kill her like right now it would be that guy that was beating down ichigo earlier. for example say he comes at the conclusion of the ichi grim. fight. kills her. ichigo snaps since the female unrealized love interest death would carry a lot of weight. in the show they'd play some sappy music and show flashbacks and his view of her. either way i would get all tear jerky.... this in turn magically enables him to stay in hollow mode as long as he wants via rage or on the other hand lets the hollow take over him which i doubt would happen

i think it would also help give ichigo a more passionate reason to fight and kill aizen. so far i don't really care for the approach they have taken on what seems to be the last boss of the series.

lol in any case i not so sure about any real hints but....it could happen. so far most of the deaths i can recall happened in flashbacks. There has been no tragedies with the current cast and frankly that helps develop characters blah blah blah.
on that note my point is. ichigo is boring. inoue needs to die for change in pace. i don't want her to die but she is in the spotlight right now.

i am really wondering if they have enough balls to actually kill someone off.

i don't think there will be any pairing up really. Since in the whole manga till now there are no couples at all ( or am i missing something ? ) i don't think there will ever be more than akward looks, smiles , blushes and of course a monolog of thwarted feelings if somebody dies.

no no i retract that last part about :

the hollow. he will get taken over! i forgot how the Japanese like to do things. when he finally comes to his senses it will be because of a naked spiritual scene where inoue comes from the world beyond to comfort him. BAM! oh and inoue will show up again by the end of the show or in the last episode credits. as a shinigami or something

hows that?
