I'm...genuinely confused how the hardcore shippers think this a piece of proof that Orihime and Ichigo were meant to be.
First off, Ichigo hated the rain. It rains whenever he's in deep mental anguish.
...Which brings into question as to why it doesn't rain when Orihime is taken.
Second, who did Ichigo thank for drying out his rain?
Just when Ichigo was on the verge of a mental collapse after all the crap he went through in the Fullbringer arc, Rukia appears, with a sword in hand to give Ichigo back his powers. The rain that was pouring not long ago? Completely stopped.
I'm a non-IchiRuki shipper, but you can't exactly ignore this.
Although it seems as though a lot of the hardcore shippers has in fact ignored it.
Side note: I've come across a reddit post about this poem and the person figured that it's about Orihime's envy towards Rukia...
Eh...I generally don't think so, but not for the reason some of the commenters in that post said, saying that Orihime's envy towards Rukia doesn't happen until the Arrancar arc.
I'd argue that this (Chapter 33) is the earliest hint of a budding sense of jealousy.
I just...don't understand how they would say that Ichigo always had a thing for Orihime, but isn't exactly conscious about how people view his relationship with Rukia.
If Ichigo was aware of Orihime's infatuation towards him and reciprocated it (which the radicals are convinced to be the case), you'd think he'd be more mindful of his actions.
So I am starting to agree that the majority of the radicals haven't even read or watched the series and only in it for a fantasy.
