DAE just get that 'next nakama' vibe from this?
I dunno, something about this really hasn't made me felt this way since Jinbe back in Impel Down, unique design and everything. Maybe I'm crazy, but I just feel that this is the ONLY Wano character, even through a singular chapter, that has felt like they could potentially be something different from Zoro, fighting style/strength and all.
The mask and chains lead me to believe he probably has some sort of tragic backstory too.
I just feel like a massive payoff from the lack of new nakama is coming, and it wont just be a celebration of Jinbe joining.
