The data books and magazines have made a specific point of not mentioning that Kaido has a devil fruit (his Vivre Card entry doesn’t even have a “devil fruit” field), which leads me to believe there’s something else going on with him.

Kaido's dragon form is actually just a big puppet which he projects his haki into. He's gotten really skilled at ventriloquism, but the most impressive thing is how he manages to hide it when not in use (and vice versa).

Yeah, I was pretty much certain that Kaido was just a dragon that ate the Human Human Fruit: Model Oni up until considering Yamato, which. Um. Yeah. Now I’m like 50% sure he’s a dragon.

wonder if yamato is big mom's kid or do we know gonna lol if oda pulls a tearjerk backstory based on yamatos mom for kaido's backstory

It could very well be a twist of some kind, like "dragon who ate the human fruit" has been popular but it could even be as simple as "there are multiple models for the dragon dragon fruit and they want to keep that secret". But in either case a human who turns into an animal or vice-versa has exactly one precedent in OP so it's silly to be like "wellll we don't know that he even has a devil fruit" because given the groundwork it's a 90% chance that he's just a guy who ate the dragon fruit and a 99% chance that even if there's a twist it still involves a devil fruit of one form or another

euphemism posted:crackpot theory: the celestial dragons were LITERALLY dragons I've considered this, since they are apparently fascinated with dragons and Vegapunk was doing dragon-based research for them and created Momo's fruit. Did someone curse a race of evil dragons with Form of Schlub?

Hard to see a similar twist on K man I mean, really none of the Supernovas we met on Sabaody had their powers expressly called out as Devil Fruits until much later (Urouge was still under debate until the Vivre Card confirmed that he has a fruit.)

Legit question: If Kaido's hobby is trying to kill himself, why doesn't he just jump into the ocean. If he's a devil fruit user he'd just sink and drown right? Or am I missing something?
|
# ? Nov 3, 2020 18:56 |

i doubt he wants to die a slow boring death like that. he could chain himself up with seastone and starve himself to death just as easily. its probably a misinterpretation on our part that he wants to kill himself and more that he just wants to test the limits of his immortality

Rich Uncle Chet posted:Legit question: If Kaido's hobby is trying to kill himself, why doesn't he just jump into the ocean. If he's a devil fruit user he'd just sink and drown right? Or am I missing something? I think this chapter, while translations weren't perfect, elucidated exactly why Kaido doesn't just do that. He wants a glorious death that will cement his place in history across the entire world, exactly as Roger and Whitebeard did. This further contextualizes what he said when he first heard of Whitebeard's death, "So you've finally gone and done it" or something like that. At first, we thought that it was just he finally gone and died just as Kaido wanted to. But now it's evident that he finally went and cemented his death for the entire world to witness and behold. This would explain why he was stockpiling tons of smiles to start a gigantic world war, theoretically in attempt to either conquer everything or die in a blaze of glory. Admittedly, this doesn't exactly explain why Kaido's introduction had him jumping off a sky island in an attempted suicide, but I guess that's also a pretty metal way of going too so whatever.

You would think Apoo's fruit would have been revealed when Killer was directly explaining it, but Oda doesn't seem like he enjoys dropping fruit names unless he's explicitly ready to do so. Not sure why that's the case. We may never get names for the Impel Down Jailer Beasts Devil Fruits for example.

With the reveal of Yamato + the whole Momo thing, I'm now practically certain it's a Dragon Dragon Fruit Model: That's not a pokemon, that's a fuckin, that's a chinese myth dragon

Yamato has kaido's horns which means that they're a genetic trait and therefore not given via a fruit Or maybe it's just visual shorthand to show yamato's lineage but that's no fun

Have any of you ever met a sad drunk? Kaido was just trying to end the sadness, and then got undrunk when he fell on Kidd etc.
