If shipper is in love with one half of his OTP then it's I Want My Beloved to Be Happy.
- Bleach has almost no examples of active match-making activities that would fit this trope, except for one brief moment when Orihime jumped to the conclusion that Uryuu liked Rukia and began dropping hints to "help the process along".
- Actually, Tatsuki Arisawa makes pretty clear that she ships Ichigo/Orihime. She gets mad when she learns that Orihime didn't take up Ichigo's offer to walk him home, the openly suggests that Orihime should either pin him to the floor with wrestling techniques or drag him into a dark alley to hump him. There is no evidence that she has changed her mind even after the time skips, and in fact . Which doesn't stop the Ichi/Hime haters from trying to use her as their mouthpiece.
The user Saiyan5ninetails is actively trying to start and Edit War via deleting this entry and giving really weak reasons to do so. Tatsuki Arisawa here expressed an open interest into having her friend Orihime confess to Ichigo Kurosaki, and nothing has said she has has changed her interests.
Not to mention, the user has been caught vandalizing other Bleach-related entries that contain favorable allusions to the character of Tatsuki Arisawa, deleting them on practically no grounds. Having expressed his distate for Tatsuki AND the Ichigo/Orihime pairing openly in several other places like the One Manga forums and Bleach Asylum, it's clear that he cannot take other tropers's opinions that are favorable to either of them, so he takes to throw a fit and delete them for no real reason.
Saiyan, I thought you had learned to tolere other people's opinions. I see, I was wrong.

(Not to mention there's the denial coming from other haters, which has spread to this wiki.)
Moderator speaking: This is a poorly written example. Unless the example can be rewritten to eradicate opinion and natter is should be cut.
How is bringing up the definition of the trope a flimsy excuse? As I stated, it was a one-time event that was played for comedy, and Tatsuki has never tried pairing Ichigo up with Inoue ever since in the past ten years of Bleach. The trope states that it is "Shipper on Deck" when a character ACTIVELY ships one character with another. This does not apply to...well, both Bleach examples, because they were both moments that were played for laughs.
"On the Second Day, The Beast Awakens, With its single fang, It swallows the falling star"How's this for a rewrite option?
- When Tatsuki learned that Orihime had ducked out of Ichigo's offer to walk her home, her response was to chastise Orihime for not taking advantage of the moment before launching into an increasingly amusing and shocking list of suggestions on how Orihime could create a situation that would enable Ichigo to take advantage of her.
That covers what happened in the manga without getting into fandom opinion.
Edited by Wyldchyld If my post doesn't mention a giant flying sperm whale with oversized teeth and lionfish fins for flippers, it just isn't worth reading.
Should there be a Sub-Trope for someone Shipping to people together even if they are Crushing on one of the two? (OR maybe even both) Could be simply cause they want to be happy, or some other more bizarre logic.
