Talk:Nemu Kurotsuchi

Name
Shouldn't she be called Nemuri Nanago first in the opening paragraph, since that seems to be her real name? Like Bazzard Black for Bazz-B. Kaido King of the Beasts (talk) 14:31, September 10, 2015 (UTC)


 * No because on every official character book she is called Nemu Kurotsuchi and so has every other character called her such. she was called by Nemuri Nanago by Mayuri but it was not an official designation outside of her being a experiment. Once that passed Mayuri stopped calling her that and she was given a new name that for all purpose is her official name and not the experimental designation she was once called by, as when she had ceased being considered a mere experiment. Its current set up is the most accurate and its more then accommodating at the top of the page because otherwise it would just appear in the trivia section. Its not the same as Bazzard Black as that was always his real name and he simply prefers that everyone calls him Bazz its an entirely different situation. Bazz was never not his name it was just a shorted nickname derived from his actual name. Like Kev instead of Kevin.--

Dead?
All she left behind is a brain, but it's in Mayuri's hands now, so he might revive her later. Still, shouldn't she be considered dead until her possible return? Will-O-Wisp (talk)
 * Well, hey, if Gremmy can survive as a brain in a protective casing...anything's possible. 10:27, September 16, 2015 (UTC)


 * You really dont get more dead then being blown apart. Whether there would be a opportunity to return her is a moot point especially since making a new one would seem to be the only way to do so according to mayuri and the flashback. Leaving behind body parts is no indication either, considering a body part cant live on its own nor does it constitute a person (there are brains of many people still used in science for study and it doesnt mean they are still alive, that is also true of bleach) except in the case of pernida were it seems to be a function of his power like Naraku from inuyasha. If nothing else the mental conversation mayuri has with his version of szayel basically points out that she is gone.--


 * It's still Bleach, and it's still Kubo. If Ichibei can come back after being ripped apart, Nemu absolutely will as well, because Mayuri's shtick is to make things better. He will either rebuild Nemu or make another one from the brain. It's too early to say she's dead. No, I'm not gonna edit this, but it is our policy to wait for final word rather than our eyes, like with Ichibei. Serocco (talk) 10:54, September 17, 2015 (UTC)


 * She is clearly dead right now - blown to bits and brain parts removed is much clearer than we usually get in Bleach. Whether Mayuri does create a new one or somehow revives the Nemu we know (or Orihime or whatever else Kubo might use to explain it) at a later point does not change the fact that she is currently very dead. If she is revived, it is a simple matter to alter her status, and that would be the appropriate time to do so. 11:24, September 17, 2015 (UTC)
 * It's really a matter of "How long until return?" like how it tends to be with Bleach. All I'm saying is to wait until next chapter to see exactly what to do with her status. Serocco (talk) 11:54, September 17, 2015 (UTC)

No Shinigami powers
Why was Nemu’s shinigami powers removed? Was it said somewhere and I just over looked it. Naruto 45 (talk) 01:29, September 17, 2015 (UTC)


 * If you recall we have no proof she has any shinigami powers or that she ever used any. Seeing its unlikely that she ever went to the academy she couldnt learn hakuda and its not shown her ever actually using those types of marital arts skills. What she does use is Simply hand to hand combat. There was never shown a real instance of shunpo besides in a filler arc. We assumed she had a zanpakuto but it was never called that, she never carried it and never used it as such. What we do know she was a special creation that comes from a mix of gikon and gigai tech. All her abilities are attributed to that and the modifications of her body.--

That seems rather speculative. A shinigami is a soul who underwent the academy training or gained that power via other training means (Zaraki and Ichigo). Since Nemu is still a soul (artificial though she may be), it stands to reason she has the potential to become a shinigami, like she can attain an Asauchi.
