User blog comment:Xilinoc/Ch. 642 - BABY, HOLD YOUR HAND 5 (EYES ARE OPEN)/@comment-1333438-20150911015800

This revelation felt mixed to me. On one hand it was cool to finally give Nemu spotlight and have her actually get a fight, but on the other hand it does mesh to well with the SS arc to me. Mayuri had her grab Uryu just to give him an opening to kill him, which seems like he no problem risking her life. With this chapter's revelation that she is actually his greatest creation and he wants her to live so she can evolve more it seems odd to me. I have no problem with Mayuri growing to appreciate and protective of Nemu (that's character development), but he didn't seem to care if she died or not in the first arc they were in.

I'm torn between wanting this fight to end, but not wanting Nemu to just pwn Mr. Left Arm. I feel like we can still learn more about him and the Soul King by extension. I hope Nemu doesn't die though. She just got the spotlight. I wouldn't if Mayuri died to save Nemu so she can continue to evolve. We know his character more and his death would last have more impact with the audience in general than if Nemu dies.
