Bleach episode 44 review
I shipped Uryu and Nemu back T in the day, then completely forgot about it. This was the moment for this couple. After fighting off Mayuri’s Bankai (for the record, probably the first Bankai we’ve seen), Uryu manages to force Mayuri into a liquid form, which quite honestly he should have stayed in. Then Nemu offers him the antidote to the poison Uryu just received. Nemu and Uryu share a moment, and then it’s over – but the shipping still remains. Obviously this one never comes to fruition, but I’d like to imagine an alternate universe where it does.
Maybe not the most exciting of episodes, due to the lengthy flashback of Uryu’s past, but still an entertaining one.
Best girl of the episode: Nemu Kurotsuchi
Episode rating: 7/10
