The purpose of Orihime's cry for help

                  Most (if not all) of the readers (shippers or non shippers) used to think that Orihime's cry for help is the thing that triggered Ichigo's hollowfication at the Dome.Because of that kind of interpretations,some people used to think that...

these are the possible purpose of that particular scene...

-Orihime's cry for help is meant to trigger Ichigo's hollowfication. 

-Some Ichihime shippers sees it as KT was hinting (if not proof) for their ship's possibility.They are implying that Ichigo is so responsive towards Orihime (exclusively?).

-Some Ichiruki's sees it as KT might be hinting that Orihime doesn't really love Ichigo like how she used to think.

                 However,as I have explained in my essay about "BLEACH Romance : Ichigo's Hollowfication at the Dome " Orihime's cry for help is not the thing that triggered Ichigo's hollowfication.In that case,why did KT drew Orihime crying for help towards the half dead Ichigo followed by Ichigo's hollowfication?What could be the purpose of that particular scene?

My Analysis

                  Aside from the fact that Ichigo's hollowfication happened right after Orihime's cry for help,some people uses this...

                  ...as a proof of their assumptions that Orihime's cry for help was indeed the thing that triggers Ichigo's hollowfication.They are saying that Orihime admitted it herself.

                  However,is it really what she meant when she said that it was her fault?Some (if not all) used to think that she was referring to Ichigo's hollowfication.

...but this is how I have interpreted that particular scene...

Orihime : I trained so hard,so I wouldn't be a burden to him.I came here because I wanted to protect him.So why,when it came down to it.Why did I want him to save me?

                  Those are the words that she said after saying that it was her fault.What does she mean?What is her fault that she was talking about?Read [link] for more explanation about Orihime's mistake.

I'll try to explain it in a much simple way...

Why did she came there?..........................................to protect Ichigo.
What did she do when she came there?.....................she asked HELP towards Ichigo

                  Orihime had already realized that she made a mistake for not helping Ichigo,and allowing him to fight all by himself here...

                  Although,she realized her mistake for over estimating Ichigo's power/ability,there is still one thing that she haven't realized yet...until...

                  ...she saw that Ichigo was suffering.He was struggling to take control of himself.After seeing that Ichigo was still trying to help her despite the fact that he had already reached his limit (he was lying half dead on the ground earlier),Orihime had finally realized how much she was over relying on him.How did she end up asking for help towards Ichigo,while he is obviously the one who needed it the most in that particular moment?Isn't her intention was to help/protect him?However,what she have done is to be the reason why he was hurting/suffering even more.In other words,I am pointing out that Orihime is referring to her causing pain and suffering to Ichigo,instead of protecting him.She is not referring to her cry for help as the trigger of Ichigo's hollowfication.Orihime is referring to her cry for help that made Ichigo pushing himself to stand up and help her,though he was already in pain.            

                  In other words,that scene was meant for Orihime's character development.It is not meant to hint that Ichihime is going to be canon,or that Ichigo is very responsive towards Orihime (exclusively?).It is not meant to show that Orihime doesn't really love Ichigo either.It is just meant to show how much she was over relying and over estimating Ichigo's power/ability,to the point that he was already at his limit,yet she still thought that he's still the one who can help her.
