Description
Personality
Nemu Kurotsuchi is a shy, withdrawn, and introverted individual, largely due to the abusive treatment she endured at the hands of her creator and father, Mayuri Kurotsuchi. She is almost always melancholic, rarely displaying genuine joy or emotion. Despite this, she is fiercely loyal to Mayuri, prioritizing his well-being above her own, even to the point of self-harm. A surprising contrast to her usual demeanor is her unexpected enthusiasm when presented with opportunities to utilize her skills for seemingly unrelated tasks, such as assisting the Shinigami Women's Association. While sharing some personality traits with Mayuri, such as their shared food preferences and interest in research, Nemu demonstrates a capacity for compassion that her father lacks. This is evident in her act of saving Uryū Ishida's life, an act of gratitude for sparing Mayuri. Her quiet nature and reserved personality often mask a deeper well of emotion and loyalty, revealed only in specific circumstances.
Abilities
Nemu Kurotsuchi, as an artificially created being, possesses a range of enhanced abilities stemming from her unique physiology and modifications by Mayuri Kurotsuchi. Her abilities include: * **Enhanced Physical Attributes:** Nemu exhibits significantly heightened strength, speed, and endurance compared to ordinary humans or even Shinigami. She can effortlessly lift and move heavy objects, react to and intercept high-speed attacks, and withstand injuries that would be fatal to others. Her speed is sufficient to catch a Heilig Pfeil mid-flight. * **Poison Immunity:** Sharing Mayuri's blood, she's immune to his poisons. * **Chemical Repository:** Mayuri stores various drugs within her body, which are released upon injury or consumption of her body parts, often with devastating effects on her opponents. * **Healing Factor:** Mayuri can revive her from near-death states through his unique methods. * **Involuntary Cell Division Accelerator Failsafe:** A failsafe within her body allows for extreme regeneration, even to the point of self-destruction if misused. This also grants her immense power at the cost of accelerated decomposition. * **Unique Techniques:** She possesses unique techniques like the "Hand Drill," capable of breaking through solid rock, and "Konpaku Sessaku," where she sacrifices parts of her soul to create powerful energy blasts. Her most powerful technique, "Gikon Jūrinjū," involves sacrificing a significant portion of her soul to create a devastating energy attack. * **High Spiritual Power:** As a former lieutenant, she possesses considerable spiritual power. In her final moments, Nemu demonstrated a previously unseen ability to drastically enhance her physical capabilities at the cost of her own life, showcasing a level of power exceeding her previous capabilities. This final act highlights her unwavering loyalty and dedication to Mayuri.
