I’m AEROKAGE🗡 🗡…And I’d like to blog about a certain character from the popular series “BLEACH”. Which is set to make it’s return soon! I recently did a blog on Sakura Haruno from the series #Naruto and thought that there are many other characters from different anime who are very controversial & similar in many ways. I’ve always wanted to do an in depth blog on Bleach so I’m trying it out and will give my honest opinions! The character that’s up for debate now is “Orihime Inoue”! Stay tuned!

Who Is Orihime Inoue?
Orihime Inoue is an energetic, ditzy and kind hearted character from the series “Bleach”. Orihime is one of Ichigo’s Close Close friends from school and plays a big role in the series. Orihime has orange hair and a very expressive face and always keeps a bubbly personality around herself. She is very clumsy and always has a huge imagination about things she’d like to do or say and it’s actually quite comical. She is the comic relief sort of character in the series and isn’t too useful as a leader. Orihime didn’t always have a great childhood though. Forced to live alone and was under the care of her brother “Sora” until his unfortunate ing. Orihime tries to lift her spirits constantly and all she wants to do is be there for her friends and help to fight foes along side them, especially main protagonist Ichigo Kurosaki. Orihime develops powers and strange techniques as the story progresses and it leaves some debate as to if she really is useful to the team or just a burden. Personally when I first saw Orihime, I thought she was just a comedic relief as well and just something else to get fans talking about but not much potential with her character. I didn’t even think she’d have a big role in the series. That’s my early assessment of her when I first saw her. Im sure a lot of people felt that way as well. I will discuss that soon enough!

Orihime’s Personality
Orihime is definitely a dumb blonde well more like red head in her case. I like how the writers created Orihime to be fun and an all around people person because that brightens the mood of the bleach series a lot and many fans don’t mind it. Sometimes she can be too over comionate and that makes her look a little silly. She always has that ditzy personality as well that plays into a huge part of why she is called useless. She often says shit that doesn’t make any sense or is irrelevant to the whole sequence of events that the characters are going through. I get it, that’s just part of how she is created but I’m sure none of us could stand to be a around a dumb person for that long…
Well...LMAO. She does have quite a bit of funny moments under her belt and that comic relief is why I personally love her character. She is very comionate & always thinks about others before she speaks. Yeah she is is a thinker but not a bright one. But the comion alone makes for a great character and it makes you want to root for her. It makes you want to like her for the aspect alone.
Orihime is definitely one of a kind & is a character for sure! You either love her or you hate her! I feel personality for a character goes a long way in anime. We tend to the characters with bubbly personalities more than the ones who are kind of dull and serious and I think that was the objective for Bleach creator “Tite Kubo” to have for Orihime.

She’s Seen As Annoying…
“KUROSAKI-KUN” *Stuck in your head all day now Lmao. I feel they definitely had her say Ichigo’s name WAYYY too much and that’s a big reason people find her annoying. I think it can be ignored though. Her personality as a whole may not be flattering to everyone and some do find her just annoying. She sweet but I can see how sometimes she can seem cringe and not funny at all. It appears to be that during the most important times is where she gets cringey.
Now that was heartfelt and real, but this man is fighting for his life AND YOURS. The great encouragement & kindness is one of Orihime’s best traits but you can see why people side eye, because she is just all talk. She has her own strength & takes a while to find it, But it’s there. I just feel the writers were torn between making her a plot device/princess who needs saving and also a girl who finds her own inner strength after being so weak. It’s like they couldn’t pick a side with her. One minute she got courage & the next she forgets about all her experiences.
━━━━━━━
Now Let’s get into it…
⇣
What Makes Her Useless?
Orihime is definitely a great asset in comic relief but in combat? Not so much… She develops a power given to her by her brother that she can tap in with using her 2 blue hairpins and call commands to her tiny fighters to defend & attack against any foe! But she isn’t the fighting type and simply doesn’t have the instinct to kill or hurt others. Some call her useless for that fact because she is always in danger and getting herself caught when she could be much more useful to the team.
I get that sometimes enemies sneak up and suprise and capture the weaker characters but Orihime has time to think about cakes and bunny’s and shit but won’t take a second to say “SANTEN KESSHUN” and defend her own self when needed or even push for an attack. Orihime is similar to sakura when it comes to the “damsel in distress” type of character that most anime have. I personally don’t think she is weak or can’t defend herself it’s just she is seen as frail and dosent seem to come through always the way Rukia, Ichigo, Uryū & chad can.
Often being tossed around and easily targeted. Enemies tend to go after her because they see her as weaker then her friends and they can use her as a good hostage. Her being able to be so captured easily gives the enemies leverage on Ichigo and his friends because they know that Ichigo will come to her rescue. Most anime fans hate that lmao. It’s okay for it to happen every now and then but sometimes it feels like Orihime wants to be captured lmao. But the thing is that she hesitates a lot and I think that is the worst thing about it. She has the potential but doesn’t believe in herself to try it enough.

Orihime’s friends don’t mind saving and helping her whenever she is in trouble because they know she is weaker then them. I personally feel that anime writers make female characters a little too frail and hopeless. The idea of every girl needing saving is cool & makes for a good arc but it can ruin good characters fast. Orihime is a character you want to like but get annoyed of easily. People like the cute stuff but not when it becomes a burden.
She even went to the soul society for the first time with good intentions but she fell short when it came to helping out. Uryū & Ichigo carried her through and they put themselves in danger just to keep her safe. None of them had thr heart to tell that she wasn’t needed but she came anyway. Even she its to feeling useless. I wish personally that she was more of a help when they went to retrieve Rukia from the soul society. But the writers kind of forced her to be helpless and not be of much use when she actually needed to be. I don’t think she is awful though. Just missed opportunities.

So What Makes Orihime Useful?!
To Answer..A Lot! Orihime is more useful then she is useless. First of all, her shield powers. Orihime and her SANTEN KESHUNN go hand in hand when she needs it. I still feel she doesn’t use it like she is supposed to but when she recollects that she actually has it, it can be quite useful. It’s become a useful skill she possesses throughout the series

Being able to block & defend against objects hurled her way or enemy attacks. Orihime’s sheild defends not only herself but her comrades as well. Making her shielding ability very helpful in situations of an oncoming attack. I’m glad that the writers decided to give her that shield ability because it makes her as a character and use viewers see that she is capable of defending herself some and her friends. Not just being useful only to break the tense atmosphere with a stupid comment. Orihime also possess the most important ability that I think of all is her healing ability! She can heal herself and others with her powers and that is EXTREMELY useful throughout the series

Any character with a healing ability is obviously going to be useful but for Orihime in particular, there was even a whole fiasco of her being used for Sosuke Aizens plot to take over the world and destroy the soul society! Her abilities intrigued Aizen and the arrancars & Espada so much that they kidnapped her and forced her to serve amongst them. If she isn’t useful then why would they need her? :eyes:
Orihime has so much ability and is the prize everyone seems to want. The abilites that everyone seeks and can aid both good and evil. The evil desperate for the power but a certain someone changed their ways and was influenced positively by Orihime…

A Heart Useful For More Than Just To Live
As I had discussed before, Orihime’s personality does some good in the Bleach Series. Inspiring characters like Ulquiorra Cifer(An Espada Serving For Sosuke Aizen) to realize and acknowledge that he has a heart and that he is useful himself for so much more. Her words of encouragement & authenticity make her useful. People seem to think characters being useful in anime, only means psychical strength & ability but it can be more than that. Orihime had the power & influence enough to get Ulquiorra to reflect on his ways and question his entire existence. I’m glad that the writers let Orihime be the one to help him with that because it shows her character to the fullest and that right there is a strength of its own. One of the best moments in the series! But her heart dosent only benefit Ulquiorra but also a someone named Ichigo Kurosaki.

Orihime is Ichigo’s girl and the one he can rely on to put a smile on his face when he needs it. The dynamic between Orihime and Ichigo make her character all the more better because she wants to be useful and strong for Ichigo and always be there when he needs it. She wants to be there when he needs to be healed or just wants a shoulder to cry on and woman to love. I’m not saying that she is only good for being his girl. I’m just saying that because of how she was written, Orihime’s heart plays a big role on the other characters and is a motivation for them to get stronger too. I personally love that about Orihime the most. I think her good heart makes up for her flaws and that is something people can’t hate on. And of course we can’t forget about her being a great and useful mother to her son.

Cheesy but it’s true lmao. We haven’t gotten to explore much with Orihime’s relationship with her son “Kazui” but we can infer that she is a good mother and that’s what Ichigo needs her to be and what her son needs her to be. Strength for them. Strength is not only psychical. You really can’t deny Orihime’s impact but haters will keep on hating.

The Hate That Continues
Most people truly hate Orihime and it’s for a number of reasons. Some people are colder hearted and don’t like characters with sweet personalities who bring the good vibes. It’s okay to have a type, you don’t have to like that type of character. But to say Orihime isn’t useful is definitely crazy to say the least.

She’s always there for her friends no matter what and helps when they need it. But I feel that Tite Kubo and the rest of the writers made Orihime too ditzy to the point where she is portrayed as straight up annoying. If all people are seeing is a clumsy and ditzy character then they really don’t have any expectations for her growth throughout the series. It makes it hard to gravitate towards that character and you don’t really see them as resourceful in any other way. Even though she is. The hate for her didn’t really help her case when she was written to marry Ichigo and have a child with him, especially all the people who wanted Ichigo with Rukia lol. I feel people hate on that too because of Ichigo & Rukia’a dynamic being so strong throughout the series and everyone assumed they would end up together but Tite Kubo said “HELL NAH”. Allegedly He was rushed into finishing the final chapters of Bleach & he did what he saw was best for the series. He blessed us with a good finale & I believe a good ship tbh

I feel people will just be half and half with rather they like Orihime or they don’t. I understand both sides and it’s sad that she is so controversial but when you create characters like her with seen as not much to offer in the beginning, it’s hard for hardcore fans to look past it. Most can tolerate and enjoy the character and most can’t stand them. Orihime is one of the best characters in the series but she does carry her flaws.

The Future Of Orihime With Bleach
Well with the final arc of Bleach approaching, hopefully peoples opinion on Orihime will shift. Throughout the series I watched as she got stronger and more fearless because she chose to not be so useless and was inspired by Ichigo & Rukia to get stronger. I feel that within time, most characters with one sided personalities and lack luster development become better developed. Orihime is an asset to her team and she is needed. She may not have the fighting ability but her heart and healing do just enough to aid where she is needed. I just hope that she has some type of
Greater influence in the & final arc. Orihime has so much more potential that they could explore but it’s like they tease little by little what she could become but never actually achieves it. I want Orihime to do more fighting and more saving rather then Ichigo coming to her rescue and not believing in her true power.

My Final Thoughts & Conclusion
I believe Orihime is extremely over hated & does not deserve it at all. Yes she has her setbacks and things that make fans turn away from her but she overall is VERY useful. I think she is just like Sakura in of having a rough start but then eventually having better development and more value in the story. Earlier I said that Orihime dosent really have the instinct to hurt and kill but honestly she really shouldn’t have to. That’s what makes
stand out because of her kind heart and she is not built for extreme violence. You can see why people call her useless because she’s always thrown into action with the group but never really puttin in much work as they do. Orihime is still a ditzy girl with a good heart and she won’t change that. I think she is a great anime character and I have high hopes for her in the future of the series with the final arc. I know people can’t possibly hate her the way the claim and I don’t think there is one bad character in the bleach series. They are all decided perfectly & have great names and traits. I’m a big fan of Tite Kubo & his work! :relieved:

My Rap/Poem For Orihime✍
People love to throw shade, on the ones who shine the brightest
Aint Thomas Edison, but she stays where the light is
Brain might be for the fools, but she still has a heart of gold
Ain’t changing fonts, but when it comes to her, everyone is getting BOLD
She may not be psychically strong, but she carries strength in other ways
Spreading positivity like it’s her job, even though it never pays
You should really be amazed, how far a good heart can take you
No matter how weak she may seem, she always makes a way through

Thank you to anyone who tuned into this blog! I love the Bleach series and Orihime is definitely a controversial character but I don’t think she deserves all the hate. But I do however understand where all the backlash is coming from. A very interesting character indeed. Shoutout to everyone on anime amino & stay safe out here! Enjoy!

I feel like to a lot of the more toxic people in the anime community, any character that is more of a er (healing, protecting etc) instead of a fighting powerhouse is seen as useless. Which is honestly pretty sad. Cause while Orihime isn't my favorite Bleach character (That honor belongs to Rukia), she's lovable and adorable. And in my opinion she's also pretty funny with her weird quirks
Exactly
Extremely underrated character. Her altruistic tendencies were amazing and her parallel with Ichigo was noteworthy as well. I still don't understand why she's hated 🥱
Not to mention Orihime's poem, whereas rain is depicted as despair in Bleach, but in her poem it is a sign of connection to the earth and the cloud. This correlated extremely well with the Ulquorria Orihime dynamic
She’s awesome

I can agree with you on Kubo not using Orihime to her for full potential. She would've been a more likeable character. Would you say she would be similar to Hinata from Naruto?
Yes and sakura. They both are good characters with poor development
Problem with Orihime is the fact the manga made the claim that her powers are so strong that they can purify corruption or something like that if I .
But the entire run of the series we see none of that, and in the final battle when an opportunity comes for Orihime, her power is not used.
Another problem is her relationship with Ichigo is very superficial. Even Ichigo barely interacts with her.
Orihime learned about Ichigo through her best friend Tatsuki. And now she acts like she perfectly understands Ichigo?
Tite Kubo probably should have considered Tatsuki to be a love interest for Ichigo instead since they were closer.
Orihime had a better relationship with Uryu than Ichigo.
Maybe romance should have been nonexistent in Bleach if romance is hard to do.
I actually think Ichigo is perfect fit for her! Uryu seems a little too nerdy to handle ditzy orihime. Orihime is strong though just developed weird
Reply to: AEROKAGE🗡
Perhaps.
But Uryu doesn't seem to mind a ditzy Orihime 🤭
More useful then Sakura at least
Both are useful!
Reply to: AEROKAGE🗡
Exactly
Reply to: Animan
I like sakura more. Orihime is good tho
