I don't think helped is the right word for what The Lust did for them but, likewise, I don't think destroyed is either. To me, it just indicated how far Ichigo is willing to go to protect her, that he would be willing to throw away his humanity to make sure that she is safe. Now there is no denying that Ichigo is ashamed of the fact that he turned into a Hollow and there is no denying that Orihime regrets being the reason behind him turning into a Hollow, however they were both able to move past this and establish the relationship that they currently have, which shows me that their bond is a lot stronger than some people give them credit for. And, to me at least, The Lust was indicative of Ichigo's dedication to Orihime, whose feelings are the only ambiguous ones in this relationship ( ... )

The alternate name for the star Hikoboshi is Altair - also known as the Flying Eagle or Winged Eagle. Orihime/Vega is also called the Falling Eagle or, as Kubo phrased it, an eagle without wings.
I think it's significant that Kubo titled the chapter where Orihime goes missing after her star, and the chapter where Ichigo, Chad, and Ishida decide to go rescue her after Altair. Except in this case, all three of them are Altair, judging from the plural in the title.
The titles repeat later when Ichigo goes into FKT - I think in that context, he was the Eagle Without Wings and all the shinigami fighting for him were his Altair ( ... )

As others have said, I liked that you didn't overhype anything here - you just stated bare facts without having to spin them or tell anyone how to read. People should be free to make their own interpretations, and this essay does allow for that. And I think that's great!
