Huh, I could've sworn that I've heard that part of that name pronounced with a "vauh" instead of a "wauh". Anyway, wank... teehee.... teeheeheehee.

Inappropriate humor aside.... what's the official spelling of the name? I've seen the last name spelled as the above, and I've seen it spelled as "Odelschwanck" as well, doing a quick google search. Terribly nit-picky, I know, but a nickpick that can mean the success or failure of a frat boy joke.

Is this character so poor that she can't afford anything more than tattered clothing? I'm not a Bleach watcher, but wow, that (the character's clothes) looks just awful.

Pretty girl. I like the hair. But way too much clothing for Nel!

She's not human nor lives in the human world. She transforms from a small child with a simple green raggy gown, to grown Nel, so I guess that explains the too-small-too-fit torn clothing

If I remember correctly, she spoiler[transforms from a small, clothed child to a busty young woman and it tears her clothes.] Or something. I stopped reading the series awhile ago, though, so...

Without the massive cleavage and boobs, this cosplayer fails the entire package. At least use some falsies or something!!

I was not aware cleavage and boobs were different.

My major complaint would be that the clothes look too clean, they don't have that tattered look to them.

I remember seeing her there. I respect the conservative take on the costume, but it would have looked better with shorter sleeves I think.

Cleavage and boobs *are* different. Boobs refers to boobs, but cleavage refers to the area between the boobs... the cleft formed between the twin mounds.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.

I think it's quite well put together if you ask me. One of the better ones I've seen.

I swear every time I look at the discussion thread for cosplay pictures on here, you always have something negative to say about the cosplayer. I guess you don't have it in you to say something nice about the cosplayer. Rolling Eyes

Anyways back to the topic, I think this cosplay looks good.

Some languages have "w" pronounced as "v" (German is an example) so you're probably hearing things right.... Kubo just likes to play around with spelling when it comes to Arrancar. :'|

The spelling according to the fanbook is "Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck". :)

Provided she made the costume and it wasn't one she bought and that's just how it fit, it's better that she isn't hanging out of any of her costume given that the big cons of AX, ACEN and Otakon have the cosplay rule stick firmly inserted so there is not possiblity of anyone bending it. If she made it strict to the character art, she undoubtedly would have been told to leave and change. Sure there were Yokos and a few bikini clad cosplayers at Otakon but they don't have as much chance of falling out of their costumes.

If the new rules are going to interfere with portraying characters like this then cosplayers should stick with dressing up as Menos Grande and be done with it instead of trying to Y7 Tito's character designs.
I don't know if she made it or bought it but the top could use some refitting.
