Does Ryokugyu Have A Black Blade?

Because GB made it clear that swordsmanship isn’t his primary fighting style, and it would make 0 sense for someone like that to have a black blade
Yeah, like Aokiji that before (almost) chapter 1100 probably didn't throw a single punch in the entire manga and then we discovered he was a brawler?

Everyone has an opinion about Aramaki's blade and that's fine, but:

- the sword is black/dark in the manga chapter and official (revised) volume;

- we haven't seen Aramaki's serious style at all, just like we did with Kizaru's "guard" and Aokiji's CQC before their big fights.
And we have seen Kizaru and Aokiji much more than Aramaki.
Post automatically merged:

But again, when the manga shows his sword once and it’s black, what’s the conclusion supposed to be? He was using armament on his sword tucked in his belt?
They don't like the implications (understandable, but still), so they won't admit under any circumstances that was just logic question.

Chapter and page that GB is said to have a black blade?
That's simply ink lol.
You seriously thought he would have Black blade.
If his sword isn’t colored in any way when the scene gets animated the anime isn’t a reliable source (it isn’t in general).

Idc what color you think it was at this moment but it obviously isn’t the color of a plain sword

You know there's a high possibility some blades are black since the time they were made. Maybe the ore was mixed with something to make it an alloy and turn it black.

Yeah—people coming with a “gotcha” don’t make any sense. Based on everything in the manga, that’s a black blade.

Okay so at the very least we both can agree that the blade in the manga isn’t plain colored whether or not it is a black blade

Like if in the anime the blade for some reason plain steel colored the whole time it doesn’t somehow mean it’s more canon than the actual manga itself

Even if it isn’t a black blade or even hardened somehow it very obviously isn’t a normal colored blade
Ignoring the manga makes no sense at all

And if they'll explain it is some way, okay.

However, if the anime outright draws white the sword that in the manga was twice black/dark (original chapter and then official volume), then that just talks about anime reliability.
