Comment by D4ve on One Piece - Chapter 1179

The fact that imu must have designed his character far in the beginning lets not judge

@D4ve It fits though, cause it literlally says Imus Devil fruit ability is simply, Devils Fruit, so Its probably a mythical zoan that transformed Imus body or something. Also, Hes not SIMPLY Shinra bonshoman, this sort of design is very common for demons in manga because this is a common iteration of what a demon kinda looks like in their beliefs

@Master Dokja I don't think Oda had Imu's design in mind at all, just think about how Loki was introduced to us at the beginning and how he looks now. And anyway, everything can be judged, especially a mainstream work like One Piece.

@Raetard It's precisely because it's such a common design that I was expecting something different, rather than something I'd seen before, especially considering One Piece features many characters with original designs. But like I said it's okay, it didn't have the "wow" factor I was hoping for, but I'm still satisfied
