In a previous post I make the point that different blades would have varying degrees of haki drainage.
Still wrong, Sandai has absolutely nothing to do with Haki and you can't prove it does.In a previous post I make the point that different blades would have varying degrees of haki drainage.
Welp, it all ties together pretty well. The information regarding emma gives context regarding sandai. Kozaburo pretty much states that there are no cursed blades. What kozaburo says ties pretty well with sukiyaki's comments regarding sandai. But if that's the hill you want to die on then sure, go ahead.Still wrong, Sandai has absolutely nothing to do with Haki and you can't prove it does.
Enma released Haki.... Sandai didn't ever do that once.
Nope, it doesn't.Welp, it all ties together pretty well. The information regarding emma gives context regarding sandai. Kozaburo pretty much states that there are no cursed blades.

Even this is false.Each sword to different degree. There are no tests, just swords leaving behind husks of inadequate swordsmen with weak haki.

As much as I dislike the fact that we didn't get a big moment demonstrating his form/the changes were kinda minuscule, I think it is likely that the alternate form he was in during Drunken Bagua was his Awakened Form.The interesting thing to me is the mentioned drawbacks of a Zoan awakening. This, coupled with Zoan having a mind of their own, makes me think that perhaps Kaido could have awakened, but avoided it due to not wanting his ability to influence his personality. It really makes me wonder if the drawbacks to a Zoan awakening are worth it.

Sounds like I was pretty much right on this back when 1044 came out (#bragaboutit)Sorry if someone mentioned this already but I'm just pondering something.
I'm wondering if, because Zoans have a will of their own, when they're awakened the Zoan's will becomes a lot stronger and takes over almost completely if the user's own will isn't strong enough. I.e. the Impel Down guards.
But because Luffy has such a strong will of his own, he is able to remain mostly himself even though his fruit awakened.
just a small note about this Recton or not, cursed swords seek out worthly users. They need to be made to "obey" by a strong will user. Which while will doesn't mean haki it does influence haki. Sandai didn't harm zoro because he was a CoC user as such he has a very strong will and is worthy of the sword. Now he hadn't awakened his haki at the time but he still had the will of a conquer. So no he didn't have strong haki at the time because will and haki are not the same but they're related? so why does emna drain haki and other curse swords do not? each curse sword test the will of the user slightly differently emna was the sword of oden as such it was more picky then Sandai was. Zoro is a swordsmen comparable to Oden as such emna was happy after testing zoro. Espeically if you believe it took zoro's CoC to stop emna. as such @kkck is mostly right.Nope, it doesn't.
Sandai doesn't act anything like Enma.
Cursed swords are not cursed per se is what he's saying, the reason they're said to be cursed is pretty much because they're blades with magic abilities.
Fact is you're wrong, Sandai doesn't drain Haki, you'd have to be delusional to tell me you can prove Sandai has ever drained Haki.

Even this is false.
Sandai Kitetsu caused misfortune.
Swordsmen fell to their death, some got eaten by seakings... Misfortune being the key word.
Not this absurd idea they became husks because Sandai siphoned their vitality and left them for dead... they were in accidents. Entire reason Zoro threw Sandai up against his arm was to prove his luck was stronger... nothing to do with Haki.
So, to claim all cursed swords are based on Haki is preposterous when this is evidently a false claim. Enma is different, it absorbs vitality and haki... Sandai doesn't. Not sure why or where you're getting your false information from as there's literally nothing that gives such absurd ideas.
"Unlike Paramecia Zoan awakenings carry risks. Impel Down guards already show the drawbacks. The innate nature of their respective animals consume the Zoan user."Part four, the final chapter.

No Kuzan only became a ally recently while the 10 TT captains are known worldwide. Like how ate people not getting this?Kuzan
I’m not suggesting mental illness, but simply noticing and suggesting a possible reason as to what may have helped lead Kiku to where she is now. Not that everyone has to have a big elaborate backstory for why people choose to be women at heart, but with Kiku being a character in a story and considering Wano the way it is, I think it’s ok to analyze and suggest such things where appropriate.I don't think oda would do that. As in, have actual trauma be the cause of kiku being a woman at heart. In that case kiku simply be a mentally ill person who needs medical attention to deal with stuff. That would undermine the character.
regarding zoans and being taken over by their animal nature... The big question remains how this affects users of human fruits. There are two options as far as i can tell.. the nature within the fruit simply being compatible with the user and thus the drawbacks are non existent... Or the nature within is super specific to someone else and his or her personality begins to affect you. I think it's possible both effects can happen depending on the fruit.
Another bit that caught my attention is how awakenings work according to kaido. Your mind catching up to your new powers and nature and whatnot. If a human gets chopper's fruit then awakening could be a default of it since there's no real catching up to do at all. With mythical fruits i suppose there would be some lag as the framing is that mythical zoans are animals with paramecia like abilities. Though an awakening from a fruit closer to human should be at least simpler to obtain than something further from human. I suppose a monkey zoan awakening could end up being simpler to catch up to than a mythical human awakening.
