There is hardly any romance in Bleach and I think it needs some for balance. The only people who express some type of romantic feelings are Renji towards Rukia, but looks slightly ambiguous and unriciprocated and Orihime VERY clearly towards Ichigo (plus that lesbian who wants Hime). But Ichi seems like he would risk his life for just about anybody-even strangers (Senna, that little girl Nel) just cos he feels a strong duty to protect and is moody cos of losing his mum. I swear he shows more romantic feelings for Chad and Uryo than any girl & is blind to poor Hime and it gets on my nerves!
