Summary
Rukia has been having strange dreams over the past few days about a mysterious family. They keep calling her name, but she doesn’t recognize them. At first, she ignored it; however, the dreams became so frequent that even during the day she began to zone out and fall ill without any apparent reason. Three days after her birthday, she lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep — and no one knows how to wake her.
Her brother, Byakuya, also begins to have visions of his late wife, warning him of an approaching danger.
When Ichigo returns to the Soul Society to check on Rukia, he ends up battling an unknown enemy who is trying to assassinate her. How can they fight an enemy who seems to know their every move? How will they react when they uncover a forbidden part of history — one that no one remembers, yet still exists?
What will become of Rukia... and the rest of the world? Can Ichigo save them, or is this the beginning of a never-ending war?

Summary
Years after mutations ended the world as he knew it, Grimmjow now lives a simple, if lonely, life in the forest. It's mostly quiet, with only the occasional mutant zombie to keep things exciting. It's how he prefers it, really, but Grimmjow isn't alone in the woods, and eventually his past comes knocking. Art in Chapter 2!
Grimmjow doesn’t sleep that night; he stays awake until the dawn’s rays creep through the leaves.
He’s cautious after that. Dozing lightly during the night, prone to waking up at the slightest possibility of movement outside. His supply runs are few and far between, and largely uneventful, but the paranoia eats at him when he does, filled with an ever-pervading sense of being watched.
It fades eventually, as days pass with nothing of note happening. It takes two weeks for Grimmjow to realize that he hasn’t had a single mutated near his house since the incident, something that usually happens once or twice a week.
Something or someone is killing the infected near him.

Summary
After the war, Ichigo Kurosaki should have known peace—but instead he’s haunted by the loss of the one soul he could never quite let go of.
When he discovers that Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez didn’t die but was dragged into Hell, Ichigo makes the unthinkable choice to follow him.
What he finds there isn’t the rival he remembers, but a feral shadow bound in chains and flame. To save him, Ichigo strikes a bargain that binds their souls together—two halves of a single scarred whole.
As the bond reshapes them both—human and hollow, alpha and omega, savior and sinner—they learn to live between worlds: the Living, Soul Society, and Hueco Mundo. It’s a story of recovery and quiet redemption, of finding home after ruin.

Summary
"Where did it all go wrong? Did Ishida’s arrow miss its target? Or Zangetsu didn’t strike true?
It doesn’t even matter now. The worlds are slowly, inevitably falling apart.
Kurosaki Ichigo and Aizen Sousuke, the last living beings in the dying Universe, are spending their last moments in quiet conversation."This is a Bleach fan comic, an alternate TYBW ending time travel fix-it. Plot-heavy angst with a relatively happy ending and a lot of sad music.
Can be read as platonic AiIchi.
Will contain some loose lore interpretations and OOC. Ignores CFYOW.
No NSFW, PG-13 for canon-typical violence&gore. Mind the tags!1 page = 1 ao3 chapter; posting roughly 1 new page per 1-2 weeks.
UPD: Chapter 2 is done! ❤

Summary
After defeating Yhwach, the thousand-year blood war may have ended, but peace never truly came to the three realms. Instead, everything began to unravel. Amidst the aftermath, Ichigo Kurosaki found himself unexpectedly cast into the world of One Piece.
Devastated by the war’s destruction and the weight of all he had lost, he took the form of a stray cat—just another nameless creature drifting through an unfamiliar world.
In Water Seven, the stray cat crossed paths with the Straw Hat Pirates. Through a twist of fate, Luffy decided to bring the little feline aboard the Thousand Sunny.
Ichigo never intended to grow attached. But everything changed at Thriller Bark. When Luffy and the crew faced down Bartholomew Kuma, Ichigo had no choice but to take human form again. Fighting alongside them, he revealed a glimpse of his true power and saved the crew from disaster.
He didn’t want to risk loving and losing again. But hiding his heart grew harder with time. As they journeyed on, Ichigo found himself drawn to the crew in ways he hadn’t expected. The Straw Hats? They’d known all along. Maybe not the details, but the bond?
That was real.

Summary
"This was not what I was expecting. I mean I always assumed he would hold me tenderly, the wind would gently brush my hair as he caressed my face. I totally called it being unexpected and sudden. What I didn't expect was to be drenched in blood while crying and it to be as a parting before he went off to battle. This was not how my first kiss was supposed to go."
3 years Naomi had been gone, separated from her best friend. Some things picked up right where they left off, but some things are different now. Ichigo's taller, the afterlife is real, oh and Nao's working part time at the Kurosaki clinic.

Summary
Ichigo grew up hearing his friends talk about the so-called "male urge" to protect—to take care of women as if it were some sacred duty. As if being a man meant guarding the "weaker gender."
Bullshit.
He protects his mother and sisters because he loves them. Not because they are women. Not because they are weak.
But then he met her.
And suddenly, he understood what they meant—only it isn’t about gender. Not about protecting the weak. It isn’t even about duty. It is something deeper. Something primal. Something that pulls at him from the inside. A need to shield her from the world, a want to protect her so deeply it feels like breathing. Not because she is fragile, but because she is precious in a way he cannot name.

Summary
Orihime Inoue was to be married to an enemy - against her will. This was not a marriage, it was a death sentence; yet it was a peace treaty no one questioned. The Royal court was filled with men draped in power, yet not one's voice rose in protest. Not that she expected them to. They were as shackled as she was, all pawns dressed in fine silks.
She had considered herself beyond saving- resigning herself to her faith.
So why is it, when a certain orange haired general burst into the court claiming to be her betrothed, instead of feeling confusion she feels a sudden rush of joy?
Can someone really save her from her doomed faith?

Summary
Death followed Ichigo with a near obsessive persistence. Though, she was partially at fault for about six years of her life. She chose to become a demon slayer after all. But, death still persisted to be her curse.
Her mother died and she lost her father to grief. She met Nēsan and found love in her and her family... until her parents were killed by demons right in front of them. They were saved by Himejima-san before they could be killed and their paths were set in stone. They became demon slayers, Ichigo taking a new name and becoming Kochō Shinobu to protect her own family.
Things looked better, until Kanae is killed by that fucking demon. Ichigo swears revenge and takes on the duties of the Head of the Butterfly Estate as well as Insect Hashira. Every one of her Tsuguko except for Kanao had been killed, the families of her girls, and every demon slayer she failed to save from their injuries.
She was furious. And then the battle against Kibutsuji Muzan and his Demon Moons. She was determined to kill the bastard who killed Nēsan. Even if she killed herself in the process. Yet, she survives the impossible and now, everything is over. They won.
Unfortunately, her job isn't done just yet.

Summary
Shiba Ichigo never expected any of this to happen. One moment, her life was dragging on day by day as she trained to be the Shiba Clan heir. The next, her father sells her life to the Emperor as a "gift of gratitude" for his acknowledgement of the Shiba's work.
It wasn't like she had much of a choice. If she didn't go, then her sisters would be forced to go, and they didn't deserve the harsh life in the Imperial Harem.
At least Kūkaku-obasama was just as furious and upset as everyone else—except for Isshin—was about the entire thing. As the firstborn, and currently only, eligible heir of the Shiba Clan, Ichigo was trained everything the heir has to learn. It had been pure luck that Rukia would have rather killed her than let her go another day without some gentle skills.
15 years old and now a concubine of the fucking Emperor, Kuchiki Byakuya. She hopes she'll forever stay out of his sight. She's never thought about possible courtships, let alone sex! Or children!
Though Ichigo never expected what would happen in the years to come. Either you trample on others or be trampled in the unforgiving city of Seireitei. Ichigo doesn't really know how to feel about the fact that she's thriving here.
