Through season 2 of Bleach

[sincere]

I only started watching Bleach because I was interested in knowing where I would fall in what I knew of only as some massive apocalyptic fandom war of Ichigo/Rukia vs Ichigo/Orihime.

I finished "season 2" tonight, and all I can say is that I don't really care about who Ichigo ends up with half as much as I totally adore Renji/Rukia.

Long story short, everyone is awesome, especially Urahara, except for Ishida Uryuu, who while no longer a complete prick, is still mildly obnoxious, borderline damsel-in-distress at times, and kind of dumb without realizing that he is kind of dumb. (At least Ichigo knows he's not the brightest crayon in the box because crayons don't have hair.)

I see a lot of pairings I am interested in, even pairings that are seemingly contradictory. (Kira/Hinamori, Aizen/Hinamori, and Hitsugaya/Hinamori? Bring it on!) Almost all of them are het. I'm not really seeing any gay here so far. Well-- there's some girl gay. No boy gay though. Unfortunately, I have no idea how I'd, well, find fiction or anything about those pairings since I don't want yaoi. It's not nice and coherent like KH fandom is.

Also, for the record, I'm currently leaning Ichigo/Orihime.

I agree with you about the boy-gay. Out of all those characters, the only boys I'd really slash are Hanatarou and Ganju. It's freaking adorable. However I'm not terribly interested in the het either. Especially any slash with Rukia. She's just so small compared to Ichigo and Renji.Every time I think about it, my brain breaks.

Now the femslash? *hearts* :3

And I know you'll be able to find lots of het for that series. This isn't one of those series where the boy-slash out weighs everything else, I think. Don't quote me on it... like I said, I'm running from the fandom.

She... is very tiny. I do not understand why she is so tiny when we know that she is Renji's age, which is not unrespectable. XD GROW A FOOT OR TWO, WOMAN.

Anyway. It, um, can WORK still. It's just a little more awkward. But my point is that there's a bleach_yuri and a bleach_yaoi, but there's no bleach_het, which is what I'd really like. A bunch of the het pairings I like shoved into the same place. There's a lot of LITTLE pairing comms that don't seem to be very active, but that's just sad. :\

She... is very tiny.

By your own logic, that means she is meant to be picked up. (:

Renji is wholly capable of doing this thing.

Yes, and I do agree that it would be hilarious because she'll kick him in the face adorable to watch.
