Ok, I finished ep 146 last night where Nel makes her first appearance. Despite being rather cute and amusing, there was something else that stuck out in my mind. I haven seen some posts on this forum shipping Ichigo+Nel. Um...well, despite being rather cynical, I have to assume that there is some other explanation. Does Nel grow up ultra fast? Or something like that?

Something like that. Think along the lines of Yoruichi the cat.

it's a MAJOR spoiler, and it won't come up in the anime until well after the upcoming filler arc, so read at your own discretion.
***SPOILER***
neliel tu oderschvank (now going by nel tu) was the 3rd espada. noitra's punk ass was 8th at the time, and jealous of how badass she was, and pissed because she pitied him for being so weak, so one day, he wrecks her fraccion (dondochakka and pesche guatiche) and sneaks up behind her and cracks her skull. instead of dying, however, she transformed into the adorably obnoxious childlike form we know and love, allowing her to survive. she loses all memory of being an espada, but still has some reccolection of who the others are.

later, when noitra's about to attack an already beaten down ichigo, nel temporarily reverts to her former glorious gorgeous self and kicks noitra's ass a bit before running out of power and poofing right back to her child form.

here's a pic:

and here she is back in the day:

Leon, you just love that pic of Nel, don't you? *wink*
Gawd. For Matsumoto and Nel to have boobies that big... ouch! The ladies know what I'm talking about. O_o

LOL! Leon, you crack me up. Can you make me an Ulquiorra jacket when you're done? I'll pay you twenty bucks! LOL.

well, seeing as a sweater like that would cost $25 to begin with, i don't think that would be a wise financial move on my part. but help yourself to some free fanart that i drew just now.

Fair enough. Nel appreciation it is.
Now, I haven't yet seen [spoiler] the full grown version of Nel[/spoilers]. I wonder if she is missing teeth? wow, random though, there.
Anyway, the little Nel is awfully adorable. Itsugo....waaaaa....Itsugo.....waaaaaa....don't leave, Itsugo....

^^Baby Nel is soooooo cute. I love the thought of Orihime and Ichigo as her adoptive parents.

It's going to end up like the Zaraki and Yachiru relationship where Nel will end up riding everywhere on Ichigo's shoulder.
