This fan art features Orihime in a Shinigami outfit. Seeing this, fans urged Studio Pierrot to produce a filler arc as part of the Thousand-Year Blood War anime depicting the character in the Shinigami outfit.

Orihime is a beloved character among fans, and a filler arc that explores a similar scenario is likely to be well-received.

The Orihime Inoue fan art entails the human being in a Shinigami outfit similar to her love interest Kurosaki Ichigo. If one looks closely, it's clear that the artist of the fan art replaced Ichigo's face with Orihime's.

While it cannot be confirmed who created the fan art, the individual who posted it online captioned it "In another timeline."

Upon witnessing the fan art, many Bleach fans expressed their desire to see Orihime Inoue don Ichigo Kurosaki's Shinigami outfit in the anime. Some fans even began to imagine scenarios where Ichigo is transported to an alternate reality, swapping positions with Orihime.

"what id give to watch this anime," one fan said.

"NGL, a filler arc where Ichigo was sent to an alternate reality and he finds out that him and Orihime swapped lives sounds pretty dope!," another fan said.

Meanwhile, others had alternate plans for the imaginary Orihime filler. Given Orihime's obsession with bread, fans want her to protect the "bread society" like Ichigo protects the Soul Society.

Another fan shared that they wanted to see Ichigo Kurosaki in Orihime's popular outfit from the Thousand-Year Blood War anime.

"using her powers to protect the bread society im sure," another said.

"now we just need ichigo in her outfit," another added.

However, some critics seized the opportunity to mock the anime series.

"Holy mid timeline," other fan said.

A One Piece fan garnered attention from fans by naming the imagined timeline "Holy Mid Timeline," suggesting that this scenario would be quite dull. However, Bleach fans had a different perspective.
