Not use ice, but manipulate it maybe. Via transmutation with his awakening. CLOSE ENOUGH.
Add that to the Elements bingo.

So instead of giving an update on what Robin and her sidekick are doing and finally allowing them to come out of the basement area, Oda's wasting panels on (ugh) Raizo in this chapter before we go into yet another break. Great. 
ETA: Nevermind. I just saw the RAWS and there will be an update with Robin this week after all lol.

Hey guys, remember my rant on how awful Garp was at parenting?
Well I think there is just one person who is just as bad as him yet no one really notices: Yasopp.
I. HATE. YASSOP.
He literally left his sick and dying wife and child son to go party and drink with his buddies, and didn't even do anything before he left to make sure Usopp was taken care of or not made a laughingstock.
And before anyone replies "But his wife told him to go to sea", THAT'S NOT A VALID EXCUSE.
He's a big boy, he can make his own decisions, and he should've been responsible enough to decline his wife's request and be a big enough man to raise Usopp, or even take Usopp with him to be on Shanks's crew!
But no, he used his sick and dying wife's permission as an excuse to go to sea without needing to take any direct responsibility for abandoning his son to the cruelties of the world. He probably mentally patted himself on the back for that, and I doubt he even regrets his choices.
Hell, he's been there for Luffy more than he's been for his own son!
It's no mystery where (or rather, who) Usopp got his cowardly nature from, except Usopp STILL has far more bravery and guts than his worthless father!
****. This. Guy.

I agree about Yasopp. Remember how the Hunter X Hunter author rightfully deconstructed the absent father story convention in shonen manga, and had everybody consider Gon's father as scum for abandoning his son? I agree with that.
That said, Kaido and Yujiro Hanma are obviously far worse scum as parents than Ging or Yasopp, but they are intended to be unsympathetic evil villains.

Thanks for letting me know.
I haven't seen HxH but I do know about Gon's father and looking at it they are so f*cking similar it's depressing.
I mean, people crap on Goku, but at least Goku has his moments (like working on the farm and going nuts when Goku Black murdered Chi-Chi and Goten).
In my planned mass crossover fanfic, I plan for Usopp to hold a lot of well-deserved anger towards his father.
As in, disown him and forbid him from coming to his wedding (while inviting literally every other member of Shanks's crew including Shanks himself).
And at least Kaido respects Yamato's gender association! It's a small thing and he's a horrific father but that's still more positive reinforcement than Usopp ever got!

Kaido systematically isolated, starved, and tortured Yamato, and it is silly to think that a misanthropic might makes right macho barbarian like him remotely agrees with very recent cultural developments in western rather than eastern society, with the latter being the basis for his own background. All the histories of all the cultures in the world are not remotely resembling 2022 California.
Also, we do not remotely have any confirmation that Yamato truly identifies their gender as a man, rather than just wants to emulate Oden, in lack of other available role models. In fact as far as I have understood the available information, Oda considers Yamato to not be transgender. He has otherwise made it very clear when that is the case.

I know and I know that he's much worse than Yasopp.
It was more of a half-joke than anything.
But at least Kaido gets called out in story for his horrible parenting (and is disowned by Yamato). Where's Yasopp's punishment?
I know, but he still calls her his son.
- 177,727
- 90,788
Yes, but I don't want us to twist Kaido into a beacon of modernity and gender identity tolerance. That is not what he is about at all. He is a villain through and through. He probably just considers most women as being weak and wanted a son. I have seen this trope in other manga.
- 13,499
- 14,698
Yeah I think it's less that Kaido accepts Yamato's gender identity (assuming that she isn't just trying to emulate Oden, although it's been very clear that that's what she's been doing in the show), and more that he was potentially expecting to have a son, but instead got a daughter so he's just raising her as a son. He most definitely doesn't respect Yamato's identity.

Early fan-translated chapter is early
And do you guys know that if you want to talk about stuff that has nothing to do with the chapter, you can go here instead

^ Gonna plus 1 to the above comment.
Also 2 things, A can Luffy just grow extra arms now, like I know gatling is a thing, but it really just looked like luffy grew extra arms when he attacked Kaido, it'd still just go under the shape manipulation abilities we already know he has.
Also, question regarding Kaido's awakening is he already in his awakened form, because Kaido is clearly very aware of what awakening is and we haven't seen him using it. The reason I'm asking is that I'm hearing theorists and people say Kaido still has his awakening left, but that honestly doesn't make a lot of sense to me. First, from what we see with the demon guards, Zoan awakenings tend to just be constantly active(Luffy's an exception since he literally just discovered it, and his fruit has qualities similar to paramecia). Second, why has Kaido waited this long to use his awakening he's been fighting for hours at this point and is clearly at his limit why would he wait till now to use his awakening he clearly acknowledges Luffy as an equal, and he's even been overwhelmed in this fight several times, it just seems weird he would wait until he's literally about to lose to pull this out.
The only theory I've heard that possibly makes sense is that Kaido can't use while the flame clouds are active and they're draining his energy too much to use it. I could somewhat see this theory working, but it still seems antithetical to Kaido's character as it effectively means he's holding back which would be against what he's been looking for all this time.

I thought that was just that Shuron form that makes him act drunk and increases his power accordingly.

Couldn't Super Hybrid be his Awakening?
We've seen two zoan awakenings as of now:
We've seen two zoan awakenings as of now:
- Impel Down awakening. Which is "constant" and gives the user an animalistic behavior
- Chopper, and Luffy's awakening. Which require a condition to use, and are temporary, and stressful to the body.

Same, I believe his original Zoan and Hybrid Forms were Fish and Awakening made him a Dragon

Very solid 7.5/10 for me. Again, would normally be a 8.5, but Oda really raised the bar.

The scroll based techniques are part of the Maki Maki no Mi.
He is capable of sealing stuff into scrolls and summoning them at later times.
He's also capable of summoning drawings of himself which end up as clones

(Doesn't explain the paralysis technique)
The scrolls explain some of his ninjitsu but not all of them, and was the clone thing ever stated to be scrolls I thought that was just ninjutsu.
- 24,321
- 37,754
Now that, I can't answer
that's true. not all "ninjutsu" uses the scrolls, that's specifically raizo
clone thing used scrolls against funkyearlobes

Oh is Monster Point confirmed to be his Awakening?

I just finished reading, and Kaido did say "WE call this awakening", and this whole chapter his eyes are ringed like Luffy's.
Very likely that his current hybrid is awakening, and his Super-Hybrid is just another amp on top

I'm sorry but is his "Super Hybrid" just his Shuron Hakke?

He showed it both during roaring thunder bagua when he initially was drunk and during his homocial drunk phase.
Seems to pack far harder of a punch than his usual hybrid since it damn near OHKO'D Gear 4th Luffy

Shurron Hakke is just him being drunk which amps all his forms, "Super Hybrid" is different.
