33 Icons: Underappreciated Females

[ravens_rising]

I know I promised this last weekend, but livejournal has been HATING MY GUTS all week and not allowing me to lj cut anything. :( And then my computer decided to hate my guts too and keep quitting out while I was making the table. Arrgghh. *cries*

And just for the record, I am still only happy with very few of these. But I decided to post them anyway... Come back, icon making talent! Come back! I love you!

This is the post of the less popular females of the Bleach world.

*coughs* And I guess you can think of this as a birthday present for prof_ryoki , even though I'm not sure if she loves these characters. But what was supposed to be my real present for her is so not ready... T_T

Your icons are always so beautiful! I think I shall snag 19 and 24!

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

T_T Thanks, I'm really glad you think so. This batch gave me ISSUES... But I'm glad you like them. :)

These are very awesome! I am taking all of the Nanao ones, with credit. Thanks!

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

It was my pleasure! I'm glad you liked them!!

[nannete.livejournal.com]

I like 7. And 14. And 27.

And all of them :)

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha, I'm going to assume that you liked them, then? I'm very glad! <3

Nice to see that someone else thinks about all these strong women.

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

I love them! It makes me very sad that we see so little of fourth division, in either canon OR fandom. :( I love Unohana and Isane. Nanao is one of my favorite characters, and Soi Fon is totally BA. :)
Then again, I love all of Bleach's women... it's one of the reasons I like Bleach. Kubo creates awesomer women than most mangas, in my opinion anyway.

[ancient-immie.livejournal.com]

I know. I've got alot of love for Yoruichi and Unohana. Though I love Lisa and Nanao.

He does a wonderfull job of creating strong women.

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, Lisa! I love Lisa too! There are obviously other underappreciated females that I didn't include in this post... Lisa, Hiyori, Kiyone, and Tatsuki off the top of my head. I don't believe Halibel has made much of an appearance in the anime yet to be able to make a decent amount of icons, lol. Who else am I forgetting...
And Yoruichi is probably my second favorite Bleach female. :) And your icon is cute!

He really does!

[ancient-immie.livejournal.com]

There are sooo many. I love Tatsuki and Karin!I'm up to Episode 206 and Halibel has popped up in shots but usually background stuffs. Thanks, but I didn't make it 6browneyedgirl9 did them of most of the major Bleach characters.

He's awesome like that.

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

Tatsuki rocks my socks, and I'm really hoping she'll come back in at some point in canon. I love Ichigo's sisters too, and I'm trying to decide if they count as underappreciated characters or not. XD I'd love to icon them, but probably won't get a chance with my themes for my next couple batches.

He's not perfect- I wish there was more female Captains, and I wish both arcs weren't dedicated to rescuing girls- but he does very well for a mangaka, in my opinion. :)

[ancient-immie.livejournal.com]

I think they do, at least I think Karin does, I'm sure the Yuzu fans will argue that she does too. Karin has a pairing with Hitsugaya [hitsukarin] there's a small but devoted following of that pairing and Nanao and Shunsui. Course you starting talking of pairings and then its gets hairy. XD

I do too, hopefully he replaces Gin & Amagai's position with a female Captain in the 3rd division, that would be interesting. He does the girl saving quite well. (^_^)

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

I'd say at least Yuzu is underappreciated- Karin does have a good number of fans, and gets a decent number of fanfiction. Mostly with Hitsugaya, as you said. I don't know how small it is, on the Pit (aka ff.net) it's pretty large. But I'll probably do her anyway, if I do Yuzu. XD Just because... it's Karin and Yuzu! Hah.

That would be fantastic! I would be seriously excited if he did that. Right now I'm just hoping for some kicking ass Unohana. XD Or at least using her powers. But then I have a thing for the old people, haha. My favorite characters overall are Ukitake and Shunsui.

And yes, he does the girl saving quite well. It's why I've forgiven him for it. XD That's also why I'm clinging to the hope that Orihime is going to DO something soon... do you read the manga?

[ancient-immie.livejournal.com]

I loves me some old peoples too! I just saw episode 206 and I was super giddy for the old people...particularly Yoruichi and Urahara little show down. Though its interesting to find out that Old Man Yama and Unohana have been Captians for over 100 years (in Episode 206). I'm really interested to see why Ukitake and Shunsui are soo afraid of her.

That's also why I'm clinging to the hope that Orihime is going to DO something soon... do you read the manga?
Yes I do. However but I'm buying them here in the states and we're only up to vol. 25. Is it sad that I've seen more of the Anime than I've read Manga? Nope! :D I too do hope that Orihime is going to do something soon. I'm kinda getting tired of seeing her just stand there.

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

Yamamoto, Unohana, Shunsui, and Ukitake are the oldest Captains, and they've been around for about, like, 2000 years I believe. Yoruichi and Urahara aren't that old in comparison! Lol. But I love them too. They're hilarious! They seem older because they seem to know more about everything that's going on. I think you'll enjoy the flashback arc, which I believe is airing now/soon in the anime.

If you're reading as they come out over here, you'll be waiting a loooong time for Orihime to DO something. =/ She still hasn't, unfortunately. It looked like she MIGHT sometime soon, but now it seems to have shifted to Ichigo vs. Ulquiorra showdown, so... *sighs*

Love these icons -- they're gorgeous! I totally agree with some of the other comments about these characters being a large part of why Bleach rocks my world (though my inner fangirl admits the pretty boys don't hurt, either). There's such incredible potential in many of the female characters in a lot of manga, and KT does a better job than most of actualizing that potential.

Anyway, snagging several of these and will definitely credit when I use them. Thanks!

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! *blush* And I understand completely- I love my Bleach pretty boys (<3333333), but the fact that there's also great female characters as well lets me love the show as a whole.

[anathema91.livejournal.com]

Nice stuff! I snagged #21 and will deffo credit!

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

[liralen.livejournal.com]

YAY! The ladies!!! *dances about*

[ravens-rising.livejournal.com]

I love the Bleach ladies! :) They're so much more awesome then your average manga girls.

[liralen.livejournal.com]

Very, very much so. They're so capable! And many of them are very powerful. I love that about the series.
