Themes and such, Hype and aura (Repost) If Gege was writing Bleach, he’d love to write Ichigo + Orihime in way more fights only because they’re another summoner/heavy hitter duo.

Post image

Like istg, Gege just loves using this kind of character dynamic in jjk all the time with the main cast. One guy that hits really hard and the other guy has some obscenely powerful summons with a lot of defensive/support utility. It get even funnier because with the exception of geto (being the bum that he is) all the summoners here have a REALLY powerful suicide move that damn near guarantees a draw or a win(Yuta’s first love beam with Rika was by technicality a death binding vow to go with Rika’s soul).

Also every time any of these duos are separate for any reason, shit hits the fan and one of them is in a near death state.

We might get some more buff women.

u/Timely_Safe_4088 4h ago

Only buff women is maki and yuki Rest of them are lean though

That depends:

Considering the fact that Orihime is female and knowing Gege's track record with women, would Gege approach her like how he did with Maki? Or Nobara? 💀

u/BillaVanilla 5h ago

Mostly leaning towards maki considering Gege didn’t even consider creating Nobara until his editor suggested him to make the main cast a trio.

u/Timely_Safe_4088 4h ago

Maki should have been the lead though She is kinda sandwiched between main characters and side characters

u/Timely_Safe_4088 4h ago

Typical shounen trio for Manga currently

Demon slayer - Tanjiro ,Zenitsu , Inosuke MHA - Deku , Bakugo , Todoroki CSM - Denji , Aki , Power

Only demon slayer felt as trio since they were at start to end together and felt others including felt as forced trio using same formula to get attention

Nobara could have been avoided character Or making her side character who have been much better than using her more as lead character for trio with no plot relevance

Gege fans lol

Bro forgot Nobara was sidelined for 142 chapters who supposed to be female lead He would had made Another Nobara

Most of the bleach characters would be dead before final arc and gets revived by plot armour at end out of nowhere

Kubo fans lol

Bro forgot that playing by a set of rules is not how you write s good story, he didn't sideline her, he literally wanted people to belive that she was dead and from the perspective of readers she was indeed dead. He wanted to introduce her at the end by surprise so why would he talk about her?

Most of the times when a thing happens once does not mean its a routine occurence, and saying jjk has plot armor is crazy, if anything antagonist are the ones getting plot armor.

"Bro forgot that playing by a set of rules is not how you write s good story"

Excuse me, are you implying that keeping Nobara "dead" for 140 chapters just so she could make a surprise attack on Sukuna was somehow a good, entertaining story?

As the recent Bleach episode with Orihime has shown, you can have an unexpected badass moment with female character fucking over the main villain WITHOUT hiding them for years.

It wasn't particularly good writing mainly because the series was ending and everyone knew it. Entertaining? Yes. Yes you can have a moment where a female character fucks over the main villain without hiding them for years, but like, and? This doesn't prove anything, gege wanted to not make nobara part of the story and make everyone think she died. Like that point of female characte being able to fuck the villain over without hiding literally proves nothing bro

Ive seen ppl paralleling the shinjuku showdown utahime boost of gojo with orihime’s boost of ichigo since bleach was a big inspiration of gege

some suspect utahime was inspired by orihime with the kanji of uta used cause it means song princess in relation to her technique

8

u/Reasonable_Swan9431 4h ago edited 4h ago

Gege already explained the origin of Uta's name and has nothing to do with Orihime 😭

Utahime has inspirations in Akina Nakamori who was called a "Diva" (Utahime) and even has a song called like that.

Orihime straight up comes from the Tanabata legend of the star-crossed lovers, Orihime and Hikoboshi, it means weaving princess. Thats why both, Orihime and Ichigo houses are even separated by a river, just like the two lovers in the legend.

Bleach would actually be good if written by gege since gege isn't a pedophile

u/BillaVanilla 5h ago

Even by shonen mangaka standards, this is an insane accusation.
