Smooth Criminal Wrote:Ah, I'm glad Nel's back. I almost thought that Kubo entirely forgot her. Hallibel being alive was stupid. I was pretty sure Hitsugaya killed her off, and so I went to look the answer up to this one online. Apparently, it was revealed in a character book that Hallibel was saved by Orohime and became Queen of Hueco Mundo in place of Barragan and with Aizen gone. Wat
Also, I'm curious. Why can't Orohime's power fix Nel's broken mask to bring her to her true form?
Orihime's power isn't omnipotent. I'm pretty sure there's an interval in which her powers are applicable. Even outside of the characterbook, there were no signs of Hitsugaya killing Hallibel. Similarly how there's no sign of Grimjaw actually being dead.
Anyway, so Kubo is going through that loophole in which there's one giant arc with many sub arcs (ie Aizen arc being Vizard, Arrancar, Karakura arcs).
Also Kubo laid the foreshadowing pretty thick with the whole "Oh Uryu, you and Ichigo became such good friends!" to hint at a fight later on. Should've just settled with "I was never planning to help him".
