It’s the same criticism though. If Kaido can’t take it when the scabbards give him paper cuts, how does he expect to endure it when Shanks cuts his head off? Or when Akainu blows his brains out?
A dude who is already screaming in pain from minor wounds won’t want anything to do with the big bois. He’ll be crying himself all the way to Impel Down.
And it’s also like I said earlier: Akainu gritted his teeth through island shattering blows to the head and stomach, Shanks didn’t flinch when his arm got taken off, Ace got a hole blown clean through his chest but didn’t react to it...,
But Kaido screams in pain when Kinemon cuts his lip??? There’s an inconsistency here. Kaido is too big of a bitch to be craving these large scale wars. His ambition is inconsistent with his actual character. He has the ambition of a warmonger but the demeanor of a coward.
With Big Mom and Teach, screaming in pain makes sense. Teach isn’t a warmonger, he wants to get to the top of the world through dirty pirate schemes, and plus he takes additional damage from his Devil Fruit. Big Mom at heart is a child who has never been disciplined, it is literally woven into her character that she doesn’t know how to deal with pain or adversity,
With Kaido, he’s just a complete failure and there’s no way around it. There is no way for a flashback to justify how inconsistent he is.
How exactly? Lmfao, all we’ve gotten from him since the start of the raid is cliched fanfic dialogue like “muh durability” and “how is this possible?”
Literally nothing about Kaido has improved since the raid began. All we’ve gotten since then is horrible dialogue and him screaming in pain left and right.
