So Nel finally changes... AND HER VOICE STAYS THE SAME!? What the fuck... that just seriously disappoints me. I was hoping she would have some sexy voice to go with that body.

Looks like next week will go back to the Syazel fight, just like how they did it in the manga.

It took some time to get used to but I don't mind the fact that they didn't change her voice because now she isn't quite as much of a Yoruichi clone. it makes her more unique

Well, maybe since she went back to adult form so fast, her vocal chords need time to catch up. Here's to wishful thinking.

A lot of Japanese studios don't like changing voice actors... it doesn't bother me or anything but look at Goku from DBZ and Naruto in Shipuuden.

well i watched episode 192 just now and it was pretty good, Nel finally transforms and thats what made it awesome but the only thing that sucked was that her voice stayed the same as she was in child form xD. dam!!!!
well ill give this episode a 5 out of 5 just because Nel transformed!!
Next weeks episode will be mostly or only about Ishida's and Renji's fight so that should be interesting :D

Nel growing up made this a win. (+) some decent action. I don't mind her voice, I'd been waiting too long for this ep to nitpick.

However, I AM NOT looking forward to more or the Ishida/Renji fight against Espada #9. I can't remember the last time I hated a fight this badly.

Finally Nel transform into her adult form. I don't mind if Nel's voice should've changed because of her old form. So far, the episode was good. Now I'm looking foward for the next episode.

Yay! The moment I was waiting for... for somewhere around 40 episodes or so. Adult Nel is, of course, hot. Though it threw me off when her voice didn't change since I was expecting it to be smexy, but oh well, I can deal. ;)

And I too am most definitely NOT looking forward to more of Renji and Ishida's fight with numero 9.

Episode gets a 4/5 because of a couple grips. :| Would get a 5/5 simply from hot Nel, but bah.

I love how Nel's voice stayed the same. (Minus the speech defect) This way she still stays cute and funny. Like when she hugs Ichigo. It gives kind of a continuity to the character.

Whoa, now here comes a sexy voice, but no... and that's just the best...

it was a good episode even thought there was still flashbacks in the episode >.> but it was a good fight - but i would have thought her voice would change after turning back to her adult form :/

but now know that the Renji and Ishida's fight will be a long & slow fight T_T hope it goes by quickly

It was nice to see Nel finally in an adult form. The voice wasn't the best for the role, while I think it remained a little too.... juvenile. That's not to say it was a complete flop though, it suits the character, her voice is just too young for the transformation. I'm not asking for something sexy, just a little more suited. Oh well, Nel furthering Ichigo's injuries was rather amusing though.

And I swear, if they drag out the Little Shop of Horrors fight, I'mma flip my shit.

Damn, they really dragged out that episode. Things seemed to happen a lot faster in the manga. Although I guess they always do. Nel is so awesome, but what's with her voice!? That's not how I imagined Nel to sound. She needs a more mature voice like Yoruichi.

This is totally my favorite Bleach Episode.
NERIERU-SAMA!!
She's the personification of awesome. Well, the voice was kinda strange, but I think it suits her XD
Oh and the music was awesome, when she transformed.
I've waited months for this to come. Or more? Years? Centuries? The hell with it.
Awesome ep, I loved it, 100/5

PS: Did i mention, that I like Nell?

No you didn't imagine it. Young Nel had the speech defect, and had more of a raspy sort of voice, while Mature Nel has the "loli" voice you'd associate with young Nel. So, it almost sounds like her voice went from weird-child to cute-child.

The Ichigo fight wasn't that great but there's only one thing to blame here: dumbass censorship. Seriously, where the BLOOD ! I'm not a bloodthirsty person here, but if someone is getting slammed around by a pointy weapon, you'd figured he'd be more cut up, but instead all Ichigo got was a few bruises. God, if they start shying away from seriously showing injured characters like they used to (look at the Ichigo fights from Soul Society arc), the fights will just end up looking more and more boring. And considering they're doing a good enough job at that with the constant recaps, they don't need any more factors to add to the boredom.

I haven't a more boring episode then what you say in the first half of the episode. I swear it, you can see the switch to ultra epicly boring to facking awesome at the half-episode mark!

The animation was also pretty bad at times. Especially when they were running towards eachother. But at least we got to see someone NEW fight for once.

this ep gets a 5/5 for the simple fact that the story is actually progressing. but i was hoping that nels voice was gonna be that "serious" tone that she has every once in a while. Like that ep when the were riding on top Bawabawa and she asked Rukia what kind of relationship they had. that was funny. plus i was hoping the animation would of been much better, like ichigo vs grimjoww or ichigo vs Ulquiorra.

i expected Nel growing up to be a lot... more. Adult Nel was boring, and not sexy. She just looks boring. I dunno, i expected more.

Also, the animation was so sub par this episode as well. No amazing transformation - just a puff of pink smoke. I'm pretty sure i saw the same "Ichigo get hit up into air" at least twice. And Nel failed to impress. Animation is getting lazy.

It's a shame how they always ruin the highlights from the manga in the anime. Now again, how they kept dragging Nel's transformation out untill half the episode, and even after that not having happen much .. Was looking forward to this episode, but it was just a waste of my time again, lol.
