NelielTuOderschvank

Nel's true form is that of a fully-grown woman with longer hair but otherwise similar features. Her skull mask changes slightly, its features appearing sharper and less cartoonish with a pair of curved horns. A large "3" tattooed on her back indicates that she was previously the 3rd Espada.[6] She was expelled from Las Noches by Nnoitra after a sneak attack by him and Szayel Aporro Granz caused her to revert to her child-form and gave her amnesia. Because of her amnesia, she is initially doubtful when Nnoitra identifies her as a former Espada, but when he breaks Ichigo's wrist, Nel's concern causes her to spontaneously transform into her previous form. Although having grown up physically, she still seems to have her child-like affection over Ichigo, when she suddenly hugs him tightly after attacking Nnoitra, without realizing that Ichigo was losing consciousness. She reverts back to her child form before she can defeat Nnoitra and is left at his mercy.
