IchiRuki 

The fan pairing of the characters Ichigo and Rukia from the anime Bleach.

While it was never made canon, and the creator of the series, Tite Kubo, said there was no romantic feelings between the characters, it still has a huge following.

It is also shipped as the more canon Nakama ship it was meant to be, by their creator.

"IchiRuki are precious nakama."

"IchiRuki is my BROTP!"

ichiruki 

The most popular pairing/ship on the anime Bleach. It is composed of Kuchiki Rukia and Kurosaki Ichigo.

IchiRukiers barely like the pairing IchiOri (or Orihime for that matter,) however many do like RenjixRukia or KaienxRukia. Rukia tends to be their favorite character. They often write long essays to prove their points, and like to debate.

IchiRuki 

The ultimate romantic pairing of the manga/anime Bleach created by the awesome mangaka Kubo Taito.

The pairing consists of Ichigo (a 15 years old boy who can see ghosts) and Rukia (a full time Shinigami from Soul Society).

At first they appear to have this cliché love-hate relationship going on, but as the series goes on they develop more deep feelings for each other.
Rukia totally cares about Ichigo and his well-being, and Ichigo does the same for her, to the extent that he risks his life and goes to the other world just to save her, even if she asked him to do the opposite (she didn't want him to get hurt or die).

But not only him is willing to risk his life for her, because Rukia too has put HIS life before her own.

They are one of the best couples ever because they compliment each other and understand the other perfectly.
And last but not less important, they make a completely hot couple.

Example 1:
IchiRuki fangirl: Did you see! Ichigo totally rescued Rukia.
IchiOri fangirl: But... but Orihime has boobs! *runs away crying*.
IchiRuki fangirl: My OTP pwns! SUCKER.

Example 2:
IchiRuki fangirl: HA! So after all Rukia DID come back to Ichigo. Ichigo was SO surprised and excited to see her.
IchiOri fangirl: But... but Orihime has red hair!... and boobs! *runs away crying*.
IchiRuki fangirl: And once again, my OTP pwns! SUCKER.

IchiRuki 

IchiRuki is the most popular ship in the manga series Bleach by Tite Kubo. It consists of the two main heroes, Ichigo Kurosaki and Rukia Kuchiki. It has been established that Ichigo and Rukia have a very strong bond, maybe even unbreakable. They both have a very stubborn attitude, and Rukia is the one that always gets Ichigo out of his emo funks.

They even got their won movie, "Bleach: Fade to Black, I Call Your Name." Tite Kubo even said, and I quote, "It's based on the change in their feelings towards each other."

IchiHime shippers say that, "Well, Rukia's dead and that would be just gross." Um...Ichigo's dad was a Shinigami and his mother was a human...and guess what? They got married and had 3 wonderful children.

They also say, " Inoue has bigger boobs and is more womanly." Just because someone has a nice body doesn't mean that they will get all the guys. Ichigo never seems fazed by Inoue's good looks.

And has Ichigo ever said to Inoue that she changed his world? Nope. He said it to Rukia, though.

Need I say more? IchiRuki has too many.

Ichiruki 

The leading couple in bleach. A combination of the character names: Ichigo kurosaki and Rukia Kuchiki. With both of them having a stubborn; need to be right attitude it makes the perfect chemistry between the two. Both of their feelings grew immensely as the story line went on creating a certain attraction to each other that will ultimately pull them together in the end. Ichiruki fans despise ichihime (ichigo and orihime) and are never willing to back down. they always stand up for what they believe is right and never give up!

That ichiruki scene was breath taking... i think i'll rewind it and watch it again.

Omg did you see that? they so just had an ichiruki moment!

Ichiruki 

The pairing of Ichigo Kurosaki and Rukia Kuchiki from The manga/anime Bleach by Tite Kubo. Ichigo is human that can see ghosts. Rukia is a shinigami, or death god, and give Ichigo her powers when she cannot continue fighting so that he may save his family. One of the more popular pairings from the series. It's main rival pairing in the series is Ichihime.

Alternative use: stubborn or close-minded.
Although many supporters are reasonable and intelligent individuals, as with most religions, there is an extremist group in the mix. Some Ichiruki shippers, feeling threatened by the possibility of Ichihime, began to resent Orihime Inoue's presence in the series. They started Orihime Hate groups, and would assault Ichihime supporters through unprovoked and irrelevant internet comments about how stupid and worthless Orihime is (often slaughtering the English language and grammar rules). Where Ichihime fans would try to reason and peacefully settle the differences between the two groups, Ichiruki fans would respond by insulting their intelligence and denying any possibility of a different opinion on the subject.

Supporters of this can be violent and abusive with their beliefs, and use logic such as "Rukia punched Ichigo. She's hiding her feelings with violence. She must love him." Oddly enough, most of these people do not punch, kick, or physically abuse their partners. They must not love them.

There are many examples of "Ichiruki moments" throughout Bleach.

See that incredibly high number next to the "thumbs down" button? That's because crazy Ichiruki fans will look up both Ichihime and Ichiruki so that they can vote down on anything that opposes their beliefs, while voting up what ever definitions they find acceptable.
