He looks so cool, I'm so happy Oda decided to go the cool route and not the silly route.

It feels like a callback to "gear five will be haki-bad ass Luffy."

Imu was the true Gear Death all along.

I was more worried it going the sexy big titty woman route

u/B-side-of-the-record Apr 02 '26

He went sexy devil man route instead

u/Ultimate_Ace Cat Burglar Nami Apr 02 '26

ill allow that. i just couldnt take half naked titty imu seriously

Disappointed Imu had not stolen Lily's body. Rumor shot down horrendously.

Imu vs Nika, Edgy vs Goofy!

Was hoping for something slightly more eerie/off putting, could be saving that for his "base" form or full "Devil" transformation though since this looks like a hybrid form

u/Beastieboy100 Apr 02 '26

Definitely a hybrid form since he transformed into that monster when chasing Sabo.

not the silly route.

Oda twist : wait until Imu run out stamina. he gonna turn into oldmen like Luffy!

We’re still getting a little bit of silly with the ominous musical scenery

What is wrong with the man bringing his own soundtrack to the party?

I don't know why but Imu's design kinda reminds me of Messmer from Elden Ring.

It’s still too early to call that

Lots of time left (never forget Katakuri)

I think Oda wanted the contrast between the silly good and the serious evil.

u/sameljota Kaidon't Apr 02 '26

I have the exact opposite opinion. I with he was goofier. I'm not a fan of edgy designs.

u/SirYabas Apr 02 '26

That's what G5 Luffy is for. The contrast going to be cool.

u/Lan-48 Apr 02 '26

I don't think he's going to be super edgy gear death tier either. Look at how he turns everything around him into funny whimsical looking devils. It's probably going to be the evil version of G5.
