Nel, aka Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck, Appears in Bleach Rebirth of Souls 

Bandai Namco took a week off last week, when it came to Bleach Rebirth of Souls character reveals, but now it confirmed that Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck, also known as Nel, will be a playable fighter. A first trailer showed up highlighting a handful of her moves in the title. 

Nel will appear in her adult form in the game. Her Zanpakuto is her Resurreccion Gamuza, which we see her wield in her introduction and during her fight. The video also introduces her as the Former Tres Espada. After showing who she is, she uses the Spiritual Pressure Move Viento de Esperanza. That’s followed by her Signature Move Cadena. Before getting into the final attacks, we see her call upon her brothers Pesche Guatiche and Dondochakka Birstanne to use her Spiritual Pressure Move 2 Cero Sincretico. 

Here’s the full look at Nel:

Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck isn’t the only Arrancar to appear in Bleach Rebirth of Souls. Ulquiorra Cifer will be playable too. Given this, it seems possible we could eventually see Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez revealed as a playable character as well.
