Talk:Orihime Inoue

message: First of all, please check your grammar if you edit the page, and re-read your changes right away to find out errors (this is for 124.numbers).
Additionally, we don't know that Orihime can kill a hollow but not a seated shinigami. In fact, the shinigami she targeted was 4th seat (very powerful, compared to seats like 15th or 20th who are weak, or even a guy like Hanatarou), plus she didn't actually want to kill him unlike the hollow, so it's even possible that she potentially could. Please don't add that line a 3rd time.
Oh yeah, and who knows what a chrysanthemum is? I did because it's the only word for it in Russian, but most English-speaking folk wouldn't. Daisy is a simpler and more common word which means practically the same thing.

replies: text: They don't mean the same to me, I think of chrysanthemum as a rarer flower than a daisy. It would be like changing iris to tulip and camellia to rose. They would be changing rare/exotic flowers for more common flowers in my mind. Though they all could be more common in Japan. Also if you wanted to change one, ume would be better changed to plum as the Ume page says the word's imported from Japan.Hackwrench 06:10, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

text: Furthermore, when I think of daisy, I think of a flower that more looks likethe picture of Bidens torta in the Asteraceae page and not like the picture of a chrysanthemum, fewer, bigger petals, not a bunch of smaller ones. Then there's the matter of what the English translation of the Anime/Manga uses. They've just shown the first appearance of them on Cartoon Network last week, so I'm not sure. There's also the question of whether the attack animations take on the appearance of flowers. If there is one that looks more like a chrysanthemum than a daisy, or vice-versa, that would be another indication of which path to take. Hackwrench 06:22, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, Mums is better in English, didn't  make the connection at first, partly because for a long time chrysanthemums had been mispronounced Chrysanteim or some such. Hackwrench 08:30, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

text: Yes I agree. I didn't change it because I thought I missed something and probably the author was correct. It should be changed if you also think this way. -- Ynhockey 13:41, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know his name? There was Sora and now Kakei? I don't remember if it was ever mentioned but both seem strange. Anyone care to confirm/refute either? For now I removed the name entirely. -- Ynhockey 17:09, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In the manga, they always call him her brother, no name given. Unless they mention it in the anime or her character bio page,he doesn't have one. --Tjstrf 18:22, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Terribly sorry that I'm over 10 months late here, but you're wrong. It's clearly stated by Orihime that his name is Kakei (this is mentioned multiple times in chapters 5 and 6 in the first volume of the manga). // Sasuke-kun27 03:10, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That's dub/Viz only though. --tjstrf talk 03:33, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

text: In the official character polls, it mentions an Inoue Sora, the name given to Orihime's brother.  Though it can be argued as non-canon, the filler episode shows a "fake" version of Orihime's brother, also refered to as Sora.
OK, the Bleach character book (page 40) clearly states that the name is Sora (昊). If you see anyone changing it again (especially to Kakei), please revert immediately. Thanks. --  Ynhockey (Talk) 11:23, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Apologies for writing a misleading summary, I meant to write it for the other revert I was going to make. But as for this one, the comments about very large breasts are completely unnecessary, and sound like fancruft (whether they are or not) too. --  Ynhockey (Talk) 14:42, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Disagreed; her very large breasts are indeed the butt of some jokes thorough the series. And you call a cat, a cat. Her breasts ARE very large. --Delf 19:19, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Looking at the RAW, Aizen says this about Orihime:
:神の領域を侵す能カだよ
:Kami no ryōiki o okasu nōryoku da yo.
:M7: "This power violates the realm of god."
Kami is something I always see translated inappropriately; mostly due to Judeo-Christian baggage on the word "god".  From what I can see, whenever they're talking about a specific god, it is referred to as Kami-sama.  The word kami alone can refer to one or more gods.  "Kami no ryōiki" is probably best translated as "the realm of gods".  This avoids any incidental references to the God god, while staying true to Aizen's original meaning. –Gunslinger47 06:45, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You are correct. Kami does not mean the God, it can mean any god, or gods. Although gods in plural are often referred to as kamigami. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 16:26, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Often, but not always, right?  A realm of dogs could be translated to inu no ryōiki accurately enough.  There'd be no need to say inu tachi no ryōiki or whatever, according to what my pathetically minimal knowledge of Japanese tells me. –Gunslinger47 00:22, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

message: "She appears to have converted to Aizen's side and is ordered by him to repair the Orb of Distortion, which was damaged via the excessive transformations of various hollows into arrancar, by reversing time and returning it to the moment before Aizen started using it. However, this proves to be false, as she resolves to destroy the orb with her powers by erasing its existence altogether."
Is the last sentence true?or is it some sort of prank? DivineBaboon 03:08, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

message: In the anime, they say that Orihime's brother is named Sora and in the english manga it's Kakei. Is there any difference between them, if there isn't shouldn't the article include something about the names? T3h Seeahrahsoo 04:13, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If you've overlooked it, this topic is touched on in one of this article's footnotes: Orihime Inoue# note-Sora. –Gunslinger47 04:46, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: woah....now that's the reason to see those....kills, man. Sorreh. T3h Seeahrahsoo 01:46, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

text: English manga only, Kakei was an invented name so that they didn't have to include lots of onii-chan/"big bro" in the dialogue. Orihime never actually says her brother's name originally, so until the databooks came out it was unknown. --tjstrf talk 01:08, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: For a specific location, refer to page 137 (as well as a few others) of Viz's volume 1. It's "Kakei" in my copy (third printing, 2005) so it's not out of the realm of possibility that it has since been corrected. ~SnapperTo 07:10, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I've made some minor revisions to the article. I hope you don't mind. This regards the deaths of the Arrancar. From my copy of the translation it is shown that only Menoly was killed where as Lolly was still alive though injured. I have also put Lolly's observation on the incident since it seems like an important observation that may effect the development of the Orihime. (NewDreams2 09:50, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Is it really neccessary to say that she's "a second female lead" when there's no concrete evidence of that?  It seems that only the fact that she has had an expanding character is enough. Shun Shun Rikka 00:37, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I think that "Orihime" might be "ori" (gold) + "hime" (princess). So "Orihime" means "golden princess". Does that make sense to you-all?

message: Finally following up what I said here roughly 3yrs ago, I'm planning on uploading a new image of Orihime to replace the one we have now per previous reason. I was thinking of using an image from early in the series then possibly having an image showing her progression in design within the text such as is how the article Sakura Haruno does so. Thoughts? Fox816 (talk) 15:34, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess an image with her wearing normal clothes or school clothes and also smiling would help. I don't think one image with her white clothes from the Arrancar arc should be used as I guess it will stop being regular in some time (although Kubo seems to be dragging the arc too much).Tintor2 (talk) 15:41, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yea, that's what I was thinking as well in regards to a new image - her in regular attire while smiling. I think at one point we had an image of her in Las Noches attire placed in text but that was taken out. I agree that bringing it back or putting that one in would be unnecessary.
