So first of all sorry for my English I'm not a native English speaker.
Okay I wanted to make this for quite a long time because I just can't take all the hate this character gets and I don't even know why ô.o
I mean look at her *_*
She's gorgeous ! I love her long orange hair
So first of all most of the Orihime-haters like to compare her to Rukia. "Compared to Rukia - Orihime is an ugly,weak and annoying bitch" le Haters
Ugly? I believe both girls are beautiful - however everyone has different tastes - personally I prefer Orihime but it doesn't mean that Rukia is ugly- she's a really cute character
Weak? Orihime is probably one of the strongest characters in Bleach and that's not because of her physical strengh. She's been through so much pain and yet she's still a happy, funny person.
► She had abusive parents. She and her brother were raised by a drunken father and a prostitute mother.
► When her brother (Sona Inoue) turned 18 - he ran away with Orihime, who was 3 years old and he raised her.
► When he was twenty-seven- he died in the Kurosaki Clinic due to a car accident- and she saw her brother dying
► Orihime was bullied in school because of her unusual hair color, that's why her hair was short when she was a child
I'm happy that Tatsuki saved her and I guess she's one of the reasons why Orihime kept beeing a happy person I don't think I could go through that much pain so please be respectful to this character.
Anyways Orihime is a 16 years old girl and her hairpins are basically like the Zanpakuto of a Shinigami. This power can be used for attack, defense, or healing. Though her attacks are not as strong as those of a Shinigami. Rukia is a 100-200 year old shinigami, she was adopted by the Kuchiki-Clan. Yes Rukia is probably stronger than Orihime but that doesn't mean that Orihime is weak. She has special abilities and she can use them wisely. I don't know if anyone of you plays some video games - but a lot of games have something like a "support"-role and they have the function to help your teammates like "crowd control,healing" and I would compare Orihime to one of those supports ^^
Annoying? um.. I don't know why you would call her annoying xD People are complaining because she said "Kurosaki-kun" too often =X well this show has 366 episodes - I don't think she said Kurosaki-kun that much. When Ichigo got hurt pretty bad - she was in a kind of trauma and she couldn't really help him so it was a standoff- I guess. But she wasn't even saying "Kurosaki-kun" , those were her thoughts ô.o
Bitch? I just ... don't know xD maybe it's because of her boobs or her mother? ô.o but then again she's just 16 years old and she seems to be innocent and naive and rather clueless.. well about sex and stuff -and I believe she's still a virgin. (wouldn't mind some IchiHime action though ) xD

Gonna continue later
