Thoughts: Bleach 290
Why the hell is Nel a hot girl??! It's just annoying. Okay, when Yoruichi turned out to be a girl it was a sexy surprise. Plus Yoruichi is awesome. But Nel is probably my least favorite character times 1 billion, so it's annoying that she's an integral player in the Hueco Mundo arc. Come on, Kubo, get some new material.
The only way this could possibly be a good turn of events is if she drops the dump speech impediment and starts being cool instead of annoying.
Sorry, just venting my initial reaction.
