Ok, so I started thinking about this a little bit, but what do we really know about Orihime's powers?

Sure we know that they're are like soul reapers, but they aren't. And they she isn't a Fullbringer, and she isn't a quincy. So what is she? Just special? Maybe, maybe not. Just like with Ichigo, the answer could rely on her parents. True, the abilities that Ichigo got were far greater than those of his sisters, but they both got the ability to sense souls. And even Aizen said that her abilities were those that transcend limits set by gods, or at least something comparable to that.

So what I'm really asking here is, what is Orihime?
