Character relationships are commonly done by opinionated people who want more to exist in a relationship between characters that actually does. The fact is we had them at one point and they were largely baseless. We all know Ichigo is close friends with Chad, Orihime and Uryu. We also know he is close friends with Renji and Rukia. We know Rukia and Renji are childhood friends as well as Gin and Rangiku, Momo and Hitsugaya. We know sui-feng idolizes Youruichi and that Urahara, Youruichi and Tessai are childhood friends. If anyone reads or watches bleach then they know what relationships exist between the characters and doesn't need that to be stated.
