Shipping meme, day 27
27. Ship that you expected to ship before reading/watching franchise and you do
Orihime/Tatsuki from Bleach. First time I heard Bleach recced, it was actually on a yuri comm. People were like "hey, there's a new shounen manga" (it was a long time ago) "it actually passes the Bechdel test! Female characters are cool! You can see femslash subtext! there's a secondary lesbian character, OK she's played for laughs but she's here!"
I read it, and just as planned, I fell in love with the Orihime/Tatsuki ship. All the princess-and-dragon imagery! I love their relationship, I also love them individually.
Yoruichi/Soifon, too, to a lesser extent. I also loves a lot of m/m and f/m pairings, but it's another story.
But finally, female-character-wise, the beginning was the best part, and I was a bit disappointed.
