Summary: Ichigo’s been ordered to go undercover at a magic school to bodyguard a kid named Harry Potter, and this would be fine, except that he’s about as good at bodyguarding as he is at magic. And he considers it a good day, magic-wise, if he hasn’t set anything on fire.
DD didn't know this yet, but I already recced this on DW two years ago so I'm just going to copy my rec from back then, when I put more effort into explaining why I like it than I do this advent:
This is so much fun. I don't know Bleach, but that wasn't a problem. Ichigo clearly has a very different perspective than the wizards, and it's hilarious. Hogwarts doesn't know what to do with him, and he doesn't really know what to do with Hogwarts, but he has a job to do and he improvises. There are explosions, and it's all very satisfying.
The crossover works very well (from what I can tell), I liked both the portrayal of the canon characters and became interested in the characters from Bleach. The writing is great, half of my comments were a list of my many favorite quotes from the story. Among all the funny moments there are also some that are genuinely touching (origami!) or both (dusting!)
I'm editing my Yuletide fic. As usual for me when it comes to exchanges, I'm flip-flopping between "I think this is going to be good, nice" and "aaaaah what am I doing", so that's going well.
