inoue uses her power to turn into a hollow.

goat-Nell is so awesome...

...but yeah she hurt the dude in black, and her powers don't seem to have grown that much, I mean she still uses the same shield when Ichigo is fighting Grimmjow right now in the anime (ep 166)...

Inoue's powers ain't suited for offense, she only has the one dude while all the other ones are for defense, and he's dressed in black, so if she were to have an element I'd say earth. Although the people themselves do fly around with wings and stuff, so maybe an highly unlikely air-earth-combo???

air and earth reminds me of cherry blossoms, you know like rukia's bro. You think her shield now can take over karahara town? Dspite her little people you never know, she could use react and get arrancar power.

Yeah, released Nel is awesome.

And Inoue's power has certainly grown, but she uses the same shield because that is what her power is! She may have other moves or whatnot, but, she will always have that shield. Just the power of the shield increases.

And yeah, the more I think about it, she would be earth, air possibly, but earth definately

what do you do with earth though pick stuff off and throw it.

well, earth can also be a strengthening type

eww thats like saying she's gonna grow huge muscles.

not necessarily, strengthening makes you stronger without having to grow the big muscles

yea i know bout still....... but i think i see her as fire.

nah, fire needs more passion than she has to be effective

fire just fire its an element, well i see her as that.

But then again is Inoue.... hot.... enough?

uh well i think of her more as the ku or sora type which means sky or heaven i think it's only given to those composed of pure energy body and spirit

lolx i dunno is she? o.O

paladinkngiht makes more sense, i change mine.

hmm...I don't think she is,but thats just me

is what?

I think she is hot enough!! And I dont see her as a ku or sora type either

why so?

hmmm another ulqurria fan.

oh i just like him cuz he's cool but i also like grimmjow and ichigo and renji and rukia and kaien and hitsugaya

so anyway wat type then is she well i still think of her as a ku or sora since she has a pure soul and energy and heart

she difinately is pure so maybe light.

she is most likely light. i think that her healing not only will heal but bring her fallen friend from the grave. here shield can cover vast amounts of space and her attack would gain god like speed, and instead of blowing up the opponent it will consume it from the inside and give its energy to Inoue because she is a hollow

and to answer the first question i saw on this topic. Inoue's mask would be ofcorse a skull but a chibi skull with a flower and maybe a smiley face in the middle of the flower

I think we're all forgetting the most important thing about her,she doesn't even like to fight or hurt people so the only way I can think of that she will is if she's completely hypnotized into doing so.

that could be what happened but she is a hollow so she will love killing no matter who she was before. if she became a hollow it would have to be some life threatening thing to cause her to do so like ichigo. and like ichigo she won't have control at first so she will take pleasure in killing.
