Powers & Abilities If/When Kid comes back, oda should just make him fight like a classical pirate instead of the mech shit

#1
I think I can speak for everyone when I say Kid's mechs are lame. They seem somewhat strong, made Kaido scream, tanked ikoku, and his bull even made BM bleed. But all in all its a mid fighting style and his fight with Shanks basically exposed this fact.

I think the reason why Oda gave Kid this style was, among other things, his style wasn't supposed to be that powerful. As we know, Kid is Luffy's failed rival. Him having a really strong fighting style would go against the point of his character... to be a failure.

That being said by the EoS, it won't really matter because both Luffy and Zoro will be so astronomically far ahead of him, that even if he gained some advanced haki and a good fighting style, he still wouldn't be able to get close to them. So I'm guessing that's what will happen. His loss to Shanks will be his sabaody moment, he will go away, train haki, and then come back in the final war to fight a seraphim or maybe Kong.

I think by EoS he will get ryuo. Maybe ACoC, but honestly, I don't even expect that much from him. Anyways, I think training ryuo will change his fighting style for the better. Rather than relying on big, cumbersome, and weak mechs, he'll use a few moderately sized magnet weapons he created which he will imbue with ACoA. Specifically, I think Oda will give him a variation of the traditional gun and saber pirate fighting style. Except instead of a saber, Kid would use a buster sword, which he would easily be able to throw around via magnetism, and instead of a gun, he would use a modified version of damned punk that doesn't take forever to charge up. Ultimately, these weapons would allow Kid to fuse ACoA and his magnetic powers into a fighting style that would allow him to actually be worth 3 billion berries in strength.

I think Oda will have him use this fighting style likely against the seraphim in the final war, who by then might be aged up to be teenagers rather than young kids. I'm guessing he will fight either Crocodile or Moria's seraphim while Law fights Doffy's.

I actually think it would be cool if he just expanded on damned punk ( his coolest attack )
And just became a marksman type combatant
You’d have Luffy the brawler
Law the swordsman
Kidd the marksman

shooting ACOC with a magnetic laser could be really overwhelming
The strongest aspect of kidds abilities is the push and pull of his magnetism

not necessarily the metal he uses

furthering his manipulation of electro magnetism is the best route for making him believable strong and setting him apart with his own cool niche

Franky already has mech stuff down

but I do like the design of magnet boys mechs personally

he could throw a giant satellite into space allowing him to damned punk anyone at any time.

Still, I feel like Oda might make both Kid and Law mixed fighters. Just because we've seen so many of those in OP, but none amongst the supernova.

We know Law trained in marksmanship from the flashback, so imo he will come back with expanded gun abilities and probably advanced observation.

And a giant buster sword would fit entirely with Kid's personality and would perfectly compliment ACoA or ACoC.

yeah they both mix stuff up considerably
Law more so
I think oda loves drawing the mech wresting stuff for Kidd
I honestly think he likes it so much that never even puts haki on it lol

it’s the same for cracker( who’s an armament specialist)
Oda never drew or implied haki because he liked the base design of the cracker soldiers so much
That’s my head cannon at least

The reason I think a directional shift for kidds fighting style would better suit him is that the one he has now is too similar to Luffys without the creativity or the flexibility to match
If you draw it more around him blasting stuff apart with cool magnet lasers
It gives him his own cool niche to work with

Love it or hate it but the mech stuff is part of Kidd's identity as a character. That's not changing
