Description
IMPORTANT COMMENTS - PLEASE READ I have the "reverse Midas touch". Everything I touch with ink turns to crap.
IT'S RUINED. 凸(`з´)
I sincerely hope that my fellow deviants perceive this with more decency than I. Comments and faves would be much appreciated! (^з^)
No reference used - So I suppose this isn't too bad. (＾▽＾)
The image you see here is approximately 17x13cm. (It doesn't fill an entire A4 sheet, as the picture above may suggest.)

All lies and you know it! It looks great! Your linework never looks crap XD

I don't lie. I'm not particularly keen on the inked version. The physical piece looks significantly better. I'll probably re-scan this with my father's scanner. My other pictures from my Ichigo compilation will hopefully look good. XD

It looks really good! I have to ask however what Ichi pairing you ship? :3 lmao His face is perfect, his eyes are VERY Ichigo, he looks like he's just woken up to a sister telling him it's breakfast far to early lmao

Thank you ever so much! (^_^)ε^ )
YES! That's the exact scenario I was imagining whilst drawing this. (^ω^) Seriously. xD I think the real, physical thing looks considerably better than this scan. (My scanner's been disobeying my orders as of late; this time, it wouldn't let me scan in the regular mode I use so the lines of this piece don't look very sharp to me. I might have to use my dad's scanner instead and re-upload it... Unless of course you consider this piece adequate already..?) xD
Which Ichi pairings do I ship..? 
IchiIshi
IchiRuki
GrimmIchi
And some more but I don't know whether they "officially" exist. xDD But I know that I've forgotten something to add to that list too... What's the correct term for the RenjiXIchigo pairing? (LOL)

I'm so awesome ;awe; lmao I consider it to be near perfect, but it's what YOU think of it that matters :3 after all it's all about what the artist thinks about the work.
Scanners are tricky creatures, i've found a threat of a screwdriver usually works on mine :3
I'm glad you have IchiRuki in there <3 That's my favourite one, I just think Rukia's naivity in human life, makes it utterly adorable <3 I dunno the term for RenjiXIchigo, but it's a good pairing >:3 so is GrimmIchi
is IchiIshi Ichigo and Quincy boy? :3 lmao i never really learnt Quincy boy's name because he, althoough a good character, wasn't one i was interested in, i was bessotted with Rukia
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yet in hindsight; an artist is his own worst critic. XD I'm more than prepared to be the instigator of a tragic scanner-screwdriver collision!
IchiRuki's the sole maleXfemale pairing that I deem acceptable in the Bleach series. XD RenjiXIchigo certainly is a good pairing. Indeed, they claim a friendly "hatred" between one another but this is merely a façade! GrimmIchi is fantastical. Ohohoho~ My favourite pairing is probably GrimmUlqui... It's fangasmic. (TωT) I should draw Bleach yaoi.
Ishida! Ishida Uryuu!! (`з´) He's one of my favourite characters with that intriguing persona of his! That and Noriaki Sugiyama. 'Nuff said. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
My scanner knwos that if i have a screwedriver, he's DEFINITELY never going to work again. lmao xD
Fangasmic, that Is an AMAZING word. IchiRuki is amazing <3 I like to think of RenjiXIchigo's 'friendly hatred' to be over compensating for their closeted love >:3
UGH GRimmUlqui <3 nwo THAT'S A pairing. You should >:£ you definitely should, nothing better than a bit of Yaoi to brighten your day.
lmao Quincy boy! :3 It's okay I never really learnt my favourite characters name either so don't be offendd >:3 MR HAT-AND-CLOGS FTW lmao

My scanner's a lazy fool. (`з´) It's clearly nihilistic too; it doesn't care if I threaten it with power tools - it doesn't care for life or death. I might name it "Ulquiorra". XD
My neologism paid off!
I'm glad you agree regarding GrimmUlqui! 
I have an idea for a GrimmUlqui piece!! I shall have to submit it to the designated group for this pairing. <3 Bleach yaoi's certainly a day-brightener.
That's Urahara Kisuke! He's so FTW. <3

Lmfao that would be brilliant, Ulquiorra in Scanner form. Most of my electronic good work with the threat of a power tool, your scanner is clearly superior.. we'll need better.. more extreme methods.
;awe; Lmao The orange hair says it all. We could call him carrot top, but they chose 'Strawberry' a much more femimine fruit if i do say so myself. CONINCIDENCE!? I THINK NOT!
Exactly! Mr Hat-And-Clogs! lmao 'Would you like to talk about this before, or after your milk.' - To Yoruichi :3
Speaking of which, Yoruichi is win too

Chainsaw, perhaps? XD
Since the Japanese word "ichigo" means "strawberry", it's certainly in reference to his name. So technically it's not a coincidence. XD
I don't remember that specific line, although I refuse to watch the dubbed version so I watch the uncensored curse-heavy Japanese version. >:3 (In case that line's from the English dub). I watch the anime and read the manga online so I'm up to date.

May work, may not... well worth a shot :3
I thought Ichigo meant first protector, or soemthing.. it hought he said it in oneo f the episodes xD my favourite one, the one about his mum :3 My sister reads the manga, i watched up to about episode 70 and stopped but she fills mei n on what's happened and who's who 
sorry i took so long to reply, i was in hospital xD bastards jumped me lol

His name's a pun; the Japanese word "ichigo" means strawberry. However, if it's written with the kanji for "ichi" (one/first) and "go" (protector/protection) rather than the sole kanji for strawberry ("ichigo"), then it's how his name's written. This is why certain characters comment on how "cute" his name is - at least in the Japanese version - because "ichigo" usually means strawberry. I'm completely up to date with both mediums. ^^
Don't worry about it! What happened!?

Ooohhh! I see ;3 i can't read Kanji so yeah xD
i still can't believe his 15, that's a year younger than be and he looks like.. older 
i have a heart problem -.- it's really gay lmao
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm glad to be of assistance.
He's actually sixteen now, if I recall. XD He's five inches taller than you and I. xDDD
If I'm not imposing at all, what is the condition?
"Gay". XDDD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*whimpers* he's still a year younger... well maybe more half a year.. but i'm short anyway *emos* haha xD
I have complete heart block

That's good to hear. Thank you very much! (^_^)ε^ )

I wish to take the converse approach and consider this an improvement over an already well done image.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
In spite of my disagreement, I'm pleased to hear that. ^^
This piece was inked last night - or should I say, this morning at around 5AM - so I must admit that I've grown more accustomed to its inked state since. xD Fortunately, it's not made me love Ichigo any less. Thank you for the compliment! (^_^)ε^ )

Considering the lack of clothing on his torso (and I'm going to hazard a guess that there is little to none on the rest of his unseen form), I'd come to the conclusion that there is very little that could cause your love for him to diminish. But anyway, you're welcome; with improvisational skills like this, I'd imagine that you'd make quite a skilled mangaka. ^^

He could be wearing underpants. (ò_ó) It's a possibility. xD Indeed, I'm contemplating whether I should designate Ichigo as my "favourite Bleach male". There's such a broad spectrum from which to choose! (`з´) Provided I continue practising Tite Kubo's style, (although I'm relatively confident in my ability considering this piece is my first attempt at his style), doujinka could arise as an option. That would certainly be... interesting. (≧∇≦)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
If I were to decide on my own personal "favourite Bleach male" (though in all likelihood for vastly different reasons (O_O)) it would probably be Byakuya. Not that I am in any way requesting that you produce a yaoi doujin featuring him alongside Ichigo. (>_>) Not that I'm opposed to such things of course... Provided that they don't feature a certain Kurotsuchi-taicho. (X_X)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Perhaps my reasons for designating Ichigo as my "favourite Bleach male" have been misinterpreted very slightly - I'm at fault here for neglecting to reason as to why he's probably my favourite. There's just something about his character that has led to this inclination.（＾ ＾）His personality is, most probably, the predominant factor in my attraction to the character. I was considering designating Ishida my favourite. (T^T) Aha, but have you forgotten that Kurotsuchi actually looks pretty normal beneath all that make-up? (^_~) I would much rather produce doujin of a... Ichigo X Ishida nature. xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's not so much his appearance as it is the perversion potential that comes from both his personality and the extensive modifications he's made to his body. Let's just say that the only liquid I ever want to see him producing is that which he transformed into as he was retreating from his duel with Ishida... Who is incidentally another of my favourites, partly due to his personality (I love the contrast given between his more serious persona and his more feminine traits, i.e. his sewing skills), and partly due to his fighting style.
Personally, while I do like both Ichigo's personality and abilities aswell, the main thing that attracts me to him is... His dub voice actor, who is one of my childhood heroes 
Excuse my rambling. (^_^)

Here I am, stating that it's not necessarily a character's appearance that draws me in - and the only aspect of Kurotsuchi's character I was focusing upon was his exterior. XD Oh, the hypocrisy. Anyhow, I totally forgot about that depraved potential! That only intrigues me further regarding his role in any possible doujinshi...*cough* Those exact qualities are what attracted me to the character of Ishida - That and Noriaki Sugiyama. 
I love Ichigo's seiyuu, Masakazu Morita; he provides the perfect voice, in my personal opinion. I'm not particularly keen on English dubs.

I tend to have to endure the Naruto english dub simply because the friend that I tend to watch it with has a certain disdain for subtitles... (T_T) Though we both at least agree that english Naruto is incredibly obnoxious and irritating (hearing "Believe it!" on an endless loop is my own personal hell. For me the only voice in the dub that remotely interests me is Sasuke's as it is curiously enough the voice of the protagonist in Persona 3 (and is named Yuri... Which of course warrants an immature giggle from me). I remember when I first started watching it alone and was able to finally turn on the original japanese dub... It was as if I had achieved enlightenment. Though I couldn't help but find it rather annoying to find that Naruto was still being voiced by a woman... That's one anime convention I still find myself hard pressed to tolerate.
I prefer English dubs only when A. the original script hasn't been bastardized and B. is of sufficient quality. I will wholeheartedly agree that the english translations of Studio Ghibli films fulfill the above criteria.
I still have yet to see Death Note. I must be executed for such heresy.

Abhorrence is too kind a word when it comes to defining my feelings toward Naruto's English dub. Far too kind. Indeed, Yuri Lowenthal is the dubbed series' sole redeeming quality. Why does Naruto's seiyuu - moreover the fact that it's a woman - irk you? I think Junko Takeuchi's a fantastic voice actress; she provides the perfect tone for the character of Naruto. It's not exactly obvious that he's voiced by a female - She sounds like a teenage boy, it's completely apposite.
Whereas I never prefer English dubs. I, along with my fellow anime-watching friends and family members, feel that the English voices sound unnatural. It's like they "ruin" the original atmosphere that would initially pervade the story in the Japanese version.
Then I advise that, in order to avoid execution from a fellow deviant, you watch Death Note.

Honestly, I'm not entirely certain. Maybe the simple revelation of the voice actor's gender somehow emasculates the character in my eyes... Which sounds incredibly sexist and pathetic when examined.
That's what I like about Bleach's dub, it at least makes an attempt to retain that atmosphere, even if to a superficial degree, by retaining the original japanese terms (any dub that anglicizes character names and terms deserves to burn in the ninth circle of hell)... Well, with the exception of Shinigami. Though Bleach is to a certain extent nebulous in this regard, as it is influenced by multiple languages, at least in regards to it's terminology. Curiously, on examination, the series that I watch dubbed are on average series that are not themselves set in Japan, or at least, not settings that are a fantasy/sci-fi/(insert genre here) analogue of Japan. However, I will agree, Japanese and English produce different atmospheres entirely. After spending several hours either listening to J-Pop or whatever anime I find myself obsessed with at the time, English just starts sounding... Vulgar and bereft of feeling. Which makes it highly ironic that my future ambition is to teach it to Japanese schoolchildren.
