Bleach : Echoes (A reimagining of the entire 2nd half of Bleach with Ichigo and Rukia's relationship being the central focus!!) by ryu_rei4444 on AO3

The author rewrites the story of Bleach starting right after the defeat of Aizen and Ichigo losing his Shinigami powers.

It introduces a new concept called "Enharmony" Which roughly means that when a shinigami gives their powers to a human successfully, a soul connection is formed between them.

This phenomenon allows both of their Zampakuto's to the enter the other's world and interact with each others owners. And in this story it becomes the main force that helps Ichigo get his Shinigami powers back. Ichigo and Rukia have to share their past traumas and form an even deeper bond which will allow for both of them to grow stronger.

I have read a few Chapters and overall it explores their relationship beautifully and creates a natural romantic progression between which also links to their Shinigami powers 🥹

The author won't be including the Fullbring arc or the TYBW arc I guess and instead will focus of providing a good ending to all the main characters cleaning up the loose ends

Honestly they plan to properly explore all the other characters too and its going to be a good read as a non ship focused reimagining as well.

They even have a heart related poem(from renowned poets) at the beginning of each chapter which relates to what happens in each of them 🥹

I am religious following this fic and I am hoping for a much better ending for all the characters 🙏🥹

Its a relatively new piece and I really want it receive more love 💜🧡

Ichigo gave up everything to bring an end to the Winter War and save the world, but the world moved on without him. Rukia returned to the Soul Society, unsure if it was where she truly belonged. One year later, their zanpakutou bring them back together, and the sword of fate falls once again.

A dramatic reimagining of the 2nd half of Bleach. Mostly canon compliant up until Ch. 423.

Can we make this sub private to IchiRuki fans only? This constant barrage of ill meaning IchiRuki haters poking at our safe space is irritating me

This is the only sub where I can have positive interactions with other IchiRuki fans without these jobless haters interference.

I know it's Not possible I'm just very angry seeing these people clearly poking at us all the time 😔
