As she waited for the final minutes
of the 4 hours to end, Orihime
wondered what she should do. It
seemed that food had an influence
that needed to be controlled. If they
ate the fast food, the additives
made her act strangely. She was
sure about that if they went to the
Italian Restaurant, Ichigo would eat
too much and fall asleep. So, she
should insist they eat something
else. Ichigo did not want to go to
the Sushi bar last time. She'd have
to come up with another
alternative.
As she remembered the events of
the last 4 hours, she noticed that
some things did not change. Ichigo
zei he hated science projects and
the Shinigami Battle Licence had
alerted Ichigo to the presence of
the hollow both times. Thinking
about this, Orihime remembered
something that Jidanbo had
mentioned. Some events could not
be changed, especially if they were
caused door an external influence.
She didn't understand why Ichigo's
commentaar about science projects
was repeated. It seemed to be a
trigger for something. Orihime
looked at her hands where she was
holding the charm. Should she
repeat the last 4 hours?
It was really a vraag she didn't
have to ask. She wanted Ichigo's
love and friendship. Orihime had
restored the friendship, she hoped,
but had made no progress in
persuading Ichigo to fall in love
with her. She would repeat the 4
hours. As she sat looking at her
charm, she felt it heat up. That
meant two things. The 4 hours was
up and fate had accepted the
change. That made her feel better.
She would still have Ichigo's
friendship.
Quickly now Orihime invoked the
charm again: 'Kurikaesu. Repeat'
She felt the same strange
sensation as though she was being
pulled backwards. It was only for a
moment and then she was walking
down the straat with Ichigo.
'Let's eat here,' zei Ichigo as they
passed a burger chain.
'Another trigger phrase,' Orihime
recognized, but that was only to be
expected. The 4 hours commenced
with Ichigo's comment.
Orihime shook her head. 'I don't
think that is a good idea, Ichigo.
Now she was repeating herself.
'How about we try that seafood
restaurant?' Orihime pointed at a
restaurant that had only opened
recently. 'I hear they sell two meals
for the price of one if u eat
before 6.00 pm. Want to try it? I'll
pay,' Orihime zei quickly as she
noticed Ichigo's eyes stray to the
Italian restaurant.
'Seafood is good for the brain,'
Orihime reasoned as she saw
Ichigo frown. Maybe they could
have a healthy light meal and
Ichigo wouldn't fall asleep.
'Okay. I would have liked to try that
Italian place. I hear u can eat as
much as u want,' Ichigo
responded as they entered the
restaurant. 'I'll let u pay seeing
u suggested it.' He looked at her
stunned face and grinned. 'Only
kidding. We'll go Dutch. Why it's
called that I don't know. Maybe the
Dutch are either very miserly or
very sensible. I've never met
anyone Dutch,' Ichigo mused as
they were seated at their table.
The waitress handed them the
menus and quickly reeled off the
day's specials. As Orihime expected,
Ichigo chose the biggest meal on
the menu, most of it deep fried with
a side order of chips. She looked at
him questioningly as he placed his
order. Orihime chose some grilled
vis and a salad. She wasn't that
hungry.
Ichigo appeared to notice her
questioning glance as he ordered.
'I don't get to eat much rommel, ongewenste food,'
he explained, shrugging. 'Karin
insists we eat properly at home.
She's so responsible for a kid her
age. When I go out, I eat rommel, ongewenste food.
It tastes good.'
Orihime smiled at Ichigo. It was
nice he'd answered her unasked
question. As they waited for the
food to arrive they discussed the
science project. It wasn't her topic
of choice, but it kept the
conversation going and gave her
time to plan her volgende actions. They
would eat and then go to her place.
Should they work on the science
project? They'd already worked on
it twice and she wanted a break.
Their meals arrived and Orihime
was unprepared for the size of
Ichigo's meal. As he dedicated
himself to stuffing his face Orihime
played with her salad.
'I hope that isn't too much food for
Ichigo,' she thought. 'I really don't
want him to fall asleep again.
Maybe we could just talk tonight. If
I could understand meer about
Ichigo, his needs, his desires, I
might gain an insight into how I
could make him fall in love with me.
of if we could relax together I
might learn meer about him.' As
she thought over her recent
conversations with Ichigo she
remembered that he had not
answered her vragen about love.
Was he in love with someone else?
Did the person love him in return?
The fact that he had not answered
those vragen and had not
turned around when she asked
them, seemed to indicate that he
was in love, but not with Orihime.
The thought was not one she
wanted to contemplate. She pushed
her plate away, her appetite
vanishing as her dread rose. Ichigo
didn't notice, so intent was he on
his meal. Why hadn't she thought of
this before! Okay she had been
distracted but that was no excuse.
She quickly thought about who
might be the object of Ichigo's love.
At one time she thought Ichigo
liked Tatsuki, but he just treated
her as a friend since they returned
from Soul Society. She quickly
pictured the rest of her female
classmates. Ichigo had shown no
preference for spending any time
with them. Since they returned he'd
spent most of his time with Chad,
Uryu and her. Of course he spent
time with Mizuiro and Keigo. It was
hard to ignore Keigo when he chose
to be annoying. She steeled herself
for her volgende thought. Could he be in
love with one of them? The thought
worried her as she had never
pictured Ichigo as anything other
than heterosexual. Why would she
as she was in love with him? His
behaviour to the males had been
basically the same, except he was a
little nicer to Uryu, but nothing
overtly sexual. Maybe he was sorry
for the ex-Quincy. No, Ichigo was
not in love with Uryu.

From an interview in Shonen Jump
magazine:
The titel wasn't Bleach when Tite
Kubo decided to draw a story about
Shinigami. This was before he drew
the one-shot manga that appeared in
Akamaru Jump. The weapon wasn't a
sword, but a scythe. Only Rukia had a
scythe and the other characters used
guns. At that point, the titel was
Snipe (as in "Sniper"). Right before
he started drawing, he began to
think that a sword would be better
and realized he couldn't use Snipe as
a titel anymore. He began looking for
a titel that grasped the bigger
picture. Shinigami are associated
with the color black, but it would
have been boring to use "black".
"White", on the other hand, can
suggest black as a complementary
color. So Tite Kubo chose "bleach" to
evoke the impression of the color
white.

Ichigo Kurosaki has always been
able to see ghosts, but this ability
doesn't change his life nearly as
much as his close encounter with
Rukia Kuchiki, a Soul Reaper and
member of the mysterious Soul
Society. While fighting a Hollow, an
evil spirit that preys on humans who
display psychic energy, Rukia
attempts to lend Ichigo some of her
powers so that he can save his
family; but much to her surprise,
Ichigo absorbs every last drop of
her energy. Now a full-fledged Soul
Reaper himself, Ichigo quickly learns
that the world he inhabits is one full
of dangerous spirits and, along with
Rukia, it's Ichigo's job to protect the
innocent from Hollows and help the
spirits themselves find peace. In
2005, Bleach was awarded the
Shogakukan Manga Award in the shonen category.
