BLEACH’s Nemu Kurotsuchi Joins Banpresto’s GLITTER&GLAMOURS Line
BANPRESTO is expanding its long-running GLITTER&GLAMOURS figure series with a new release inspired by one of BLEACH’s most recognizable characters, Nemu Kurotsuchi.
Known for highlighting female characters with eye-catching sculpting and large display-friendly sizes, the GLITTER&GLAMOURS line continues with a figure based on the loyal 12th Division Vice-Captain from Tite Kubo’s iconic supernatural action series.
BLEACH follows the adventures of Ichigo Kurosaki after he gains the powers of a Soul Reaper and becomes entangled in battles involving Hollows, Soul Reapers, and powerful enemies threatening multiple worlds.
Among the many members of the Soul Society, Nemu serves under 12th Division Captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi and was artificially created through his experimental Nemuri Project.
Throughout the series, Nemu remains devoted to Mayuri, addressing him with the utmost respect while repeatedly placing herself in danger to assist him during critical battles.
Her unique body was engineered with a variety of specialized substances and modifications designed to support Mayuri’s scientific methods and combat strategies against unusual opponents.
The “BLEACH GLITTER&GLAMOURS -Nemu Kurotsuchi-” figure presents Nemu in a graceful pose that emphasizes both her elegance and quiet confidence.
Standing approximately 24 cm tall, the figure recreates Nemu’s slender physique while paying careful attention to the proportions and details that fans will instantly recognize.
Her lengthy braided hairstyle has been sculpted with fine strands and subtle movement, giving the impression that it is naturally flowing around her.
One hand is positioned gently near her neck while the other extends outward, creating a poised and sophisticated stance that reflects her calm demeanor.
The sculpt is further enhanced by a restrained facial expression that captures Nemu’s composed personality while adding an understated sense of charm.
The overall presentation balances beauty and accuracy, making the figure a great addition to the growing range of BLEACH collectibles available to fans.
“BLEACH GLITTER&GLAMOURS -Nemu Kurotsuchi-” is scheduled to debut as a crane game prize in amusement centers and arcades across Japan beginning June 18, 2026, with international availability through reputable anime retailers and hobby stores expected to follow approximately two months later in mid-to-late August 2026.
