Quote from jrdragon2003

well i assume that her human form is really like a disguise for what she really looks like so the horns growing shouldn't be to big of a deal to worry about. but the sword though, i agree where it came from is a mystery. unless it can materialize itself once her powers activate or something.

The horns thing sounds right, but I bet the sword part will probably never be explained by Kubo.

Quote from Monstar Maalik

i just dropped it last episode, this is anime is really bad....between the filler and the voice acting (i wanna shoot myself everytime Nel opens her mouth) it's just not worth the time i've spent on it....

i think i'm gonna try the manga now though, see if it's any better....

Why shoot yourself when you can shoot the people in charge of making Nel's voice like that? 🤣

But as for you trying the manga, look at what I typed under the Mr. Jackson joke in my signature. That should tell you what you're gonna be looking forward to.

And is it just me, or has everybody else's font changed in the "post body" text box 😕

Wait...
I haven't seen the anime since late last year and all, but I wasn't that turned off by chibi Nell's voice. She's the same seiyuu for chiyo in Azumanga Daioh and that girl in Myself;Yourself. So I thought it fitted...maybe a little high pitch sometimes, but it's chibi nell we're talking about.
My question is, have they shown adult Nell yet? If so, is the seiyuu the same? o_o

Scyfon, Page 2 of this thread has nothing but us talking about how Nel's voice will haunt us in our dreams. 😔

And the voice actor is the same for both the baby and adult versions of Nel (I TOLD YOU EVERYBODY! THEY DID FILL HER BOOTH UP WITH HELIUM!)

Here's a link so that you can be haunted, too. She starts talking around 2:06.

Don't say I didn't warn you...

Heh~
Well, that just kills it. The seiyuu is only fitting for loli and chibi characters 😔
I guess I'm lucky I haven't been watching :\

P.S - too bad...or lucky for me, I can't youtube 🤣

i still don't understand why they didn't try to change her seiyuu for her adult version. i know i pointed out before that higher, cutesy voices for the female characters was some form of purity, but that's just to much. it doesn't match her at all. i remember feeling the same way with Kazehana for the Sekirei anime, but compared to Nel's adult form her's fits a hell of a lot more.

My guess as to why they didn't change her seiyuu is beacuse she's the only one in japan who is capable of doing a lisp along with a voice in another tone.
Her voice pisses me off almost as much as Ichigo ignoring Inoue. The fact that Inoue liked him for the last 160 or so episodes and he's been putting her on the wayside for other little girls, or Rukia, or some other girl how's got almost zero attraction points before Nel it was the princess from the filler.
And the one time it was all about Inoue, what happens, they had to make Nel the focus.

Bleach took away the one thing that it had that other animes may or may not include from time to time,
A sense of mortality. Now that Ichigo doesn't die anymore, and is automatically on par with every opponent he fights, throw in Ichi's lack luster BS preaching, and you get what verges on the worse setup for an anime.

Only thing that could save this for me, is if Rukia is gone from the show. I've been waiting for her to get killed off so many times. But now that Nel has "her full power" she probably can also heal better then Inoue.
Lets just hope it doesn't involve more spit again

Nobody can be so dense as to realize that the same girl has been chasing after them for about 1-2 years straight.

I think the reason is probably because they wanted to contrast Nel with Inoue. Both of them have the same build, both are in love with Ichigo, and now both have matching voices. At first I thought the high pitch was annoying, but then I thought "why should I hate this voice when Orihime has a similar one." It does seem slightly out-of-place though, especially when they change the voice for most people who transform.

Another thing:

The Bleach anime really shows it's pitfalls compared to the Shippuden anime.

Now, I like Bleach better than Naruto, but Shippuden is so much better. It's not just a retelling of the manga, IMO, but an art within itself (at least the canon parts). The backgrounds, character design, coloring, camera angles, etc, all are of a higher quality.

Aesthetically, it's better.

So Ichigo has to get with Orihime regardless of how feels about it then? That doesn't seem fair. He rather obviously is more interested in Rukia; she's the one who brought him into everything after all. I've always felt that his connection with Rukia was far stronger than Orihime's rather one-sided crush on him. I don't think that just because some girl is infatuated with him, he has any moral obligation to stay loyal to her. It's not like Orihime doesn't have other options anyway.

I also seriously don't think he's consciously ignoring her either. He just doesn't have the same level of attraction to her as she does him.

And I also seriously doubt Ichigo X Nell is going to happen (especially not anytime soon).

it's not necessarily like that as you put it. he's not really ignoring her at all, considering the amount of effort he's putting in to save her, just as he did with Rukia. if anything the level of "attraction" he has for either is about the same. Ichigo x Nel, is possible too, she's not really a little girl after all. who knows maybe after this arc there might be something that leads to more development on that relationship.

Ichigo would put an equal amount of effort into saving Ishida, Chad, or practically anyone else if they were captured; he's just the heroic type. Plus he seems to have to have a natural inclination to want to fight strong opponents. I don't think him wanting to save Orihime has much to do with attraction at all (admittedly, neither did his wanting to save Rukia really).

And I'm not saying him and Nel is impossible, just highly unlikely.

hence my underlining point that he values Rukia along the same lines as Orihime. neither are above each other in his eyes.

I still have to disagree. Who Ichigo tries to save doesn't matter in relation to whom he is attracted to at all. What does matter is his relationship with the girls. Looking at their interactions the bond between him and Rukia is easily a stronger, more mutual one. Ichigo has a clear trust in her. With Orihime, she's just another friend. Important to him, of course, but I wouldn't say on the same level. Their interactions all seem far more strained.

i'm not trying to say who he's saving is showing who he has more affection for. but i'm saying that he has the same appreciation for them in all aspects. looking at their bond Rukia's interactions seem more platonic since you brought it up. considering so of the interactions he's had with her. most of the time it ends up being entirely business based and overly work related. good example for this is two police officers who are partners but never step in beyond that. there could be a very strong bond there, but it's likely it would never move beyond something like that. in which Orihime has a stronger chance than Rukia does in terms of pairing. mainly cause like you pointed out they are friends which means she knows more about Ichigo in a way Rukia wouldn't, making her able to connect to him. but the same could be said about Rukia and the current change of course his life took.
but my personal opinion is that neither of them have that chance at least currently, since like a lot of characters with Ichigo's archetype really don't follow love interests.

I suppose that's where we'll agree. Given Ichigo's nature and the nature of the series in the first place, the chance of any real romance developing for either of them is exceedingly small.
