In any case, Orihime thinks she wants some sexual wonderland and though Ichigo might even be good at some tenderness in physical intimacy, I’m not sure anyone could give Orihime what it is she wants. Welcome to the world of sexual astrology. See? Isn’t that weirdly specific? I told you. Gender roles are flipped around here – Ichigo has a talent for really instinctive, physical sex, but Orihime cares about orgasm to the point where it is an art for her and she would rather pleasure herself than be with someone who can’t make her orgasm. Okay, now here is where things get weirdly specific. There is a physically intense animalism that can tie them together, though, if they work through the first sex and they get down to it – though the animalism happens in an almost obsessive, unhealthy way. Orihime’s deeper approach to sex, once it’s gotten down to, is fast but somewhat superficial, while Ichigo’s is emotional but also slower. They’re almost opposites attract, but they just miss it. They could take that chance, or they could let it destroy them.īoth of these people are on a deeper sexual level intensely animalistic, but this is about the only point where they meet sexually as Moon Signs. So these two might have an opportunity to learn more about how each other’s worlds work. Stiltedness might be a problem here, especially because I don’t think Ichigo’s Sun sign could truly understand not being able to feel something strong, especially sexually. Orihime’s Sun sign is a rational one prone to lots of thought and analysis – maybe even daydreams? – and they can have trouble moving from mind and into emotions, and can therefore sometimes have trouble enjoying sex. (It also applies to Renji, who will feature later on in this series.) But with Orihime this is particularly pronounced. Next up will be ByaIchi, or Byakuya x Ichigo.įirst, Orihime and Ichigo are pretty fundamentally different people – interestingly, it is like that for all four of the first pairings in this essay series, Rukia, Orihime, Byakuya, and Hitsugaya.
