Oof this a very terrible thread huh. Idk why ppl still try to make it about ships when the entire manga was ichigos journey of discovering his self. https://twitter.com/Jongupsadmirer/status/1342921055128707072

Uryu becoming a doctor is meant to show that he is reconciling with his father. Thats one of the most basic storytelling u could see : someone who didnt want to do x thing bc of reasons that they had not fully grasped, they find the truth, and finally they want to do x thing

Chad becoming a boxer is admittedly were u could act shook but thats honestly only bc kubo kept givin him the L in the entire manga. Also he said he wasnt using his fist for his sake bc thats how he interpreted his abuelos word.....which almost got him killed had ichigo not inte-

-rvene...thats not rlly honorable and pretty obv was going to be at the heart of chads character arc in tandems with ichigos "duty vs desire" plot point back in fb but then shinigamis ruined it ( like they always do ) so heres that

Yhwach appear before KAZUI. Rukia and ichigo very obv met in the 10 years timeskip bc of how casual their reunion was and the only new thing this time was kazui and ichika, their respective children, meeting for the FIRST time. Or else yhwach would have gone to kill rukia n ichi

So i dont excatly get how u made this arg in ur brain. If kazui isnt part of ichigos happiness, why would yhawch come for him ??? Why would he come in yuzus room when he could just wait near the clinic entrance ? Were rukia n ichi allegedly met for the first time over 10 years?

Its also very disturbing to me that u would think someone like ichigo, who always been so fiercely defensive of one's agency ( particularly orihimes ) would actively marry someone he apprantly doesnt love and literally birth A CHILD with her bc he wanted to screw yhawch over?

The same ichigo whos introduction is being all kind to ghost children ? Would birth a child for the sole purpose of fucking over some mustache dude ? THAT ICHIGO??? Aizen speech about facing death is courage ( which is kazuis name. Like hello ) is meant to show us how ichigo-

Accepts his humanity. A great part of ichigos character was his understanding and acceptance of self, and accepting humanity is accepting all the flaws that come with it. Accepting the fear of death is one of the most defining philosophy that humans have. Bc they accept to be

Weak. The part where he ask orihime were is kazui isnt meant to show us he doesnt have his powers anymore ( also the last volume cover and bbs obv contradict that so L ) but simply that he relys on his wife about kazui whereabouts....how can u see ichigos finally mf relaxing

And counting on someone else to be a proof of his unhappiness or whatever ? Also renruki maybe had gigais bc idk ? Theyre around humans ? Theyre gonna sit n watch chads match and eat food ? Did u like think for a sec that they came here to relax and meet their human friends ?

The sokyoku being rebuilt has nothing to do with ichigo but also yhwach first appeared when it was rukias ceremony so she obv dont mind it either so like uuuh..L for you. And also, while rukia absolutely has the privilege of being the very first person that had dried his rain

And the one ichigos mentally thanks for that, she is far from the only one doing that. Uraharas back in the end of aots, isshin in deicide arc, mf ichigo himself in tybw arc....his rain is meant to symbolise his inner pain directly linked to his feeling of powerlessness

Rukia did come to open the DOOR that is ichigos inner potential and hes obv eternally grateful....but thats rlly it. She always comes in a pinch to beat him up and pep talk but thats mostly her realising, by the end of ss arc, that there were no point in lamenting on herself that

She ruined ichigos life as he himself is grateful that he had the power to protect. She should rather take this worry as a motivational strenght to look after him and preventing him from doing the same mistakes she did: shouldering everything on himself. She simply takes the role

Of his mentor that is so beloved isshin calls her his 3rd daughter cementing her as a stern yet caring surrogate older sister. Her way of picking ichigo up is also v similar to isshin ( coz kaien was her mentor maybe ? ) so she is actually his other dad ! :)

Anyways...ur args were uuuuuuh TERRIBLE ! Happy new years :)))
