Inu Inu no Mi, Model: Tanuki

The Inu Inu no Mi, Model: Tanuki is a Zoan-type Devil Fruit that allows its user to transform into a tanuki hybrid and a full tanuki at will. It was "eaten" by Tenguyama Hitetsu's teapot, Bunbuku.
==Etymology==
* is Japanese for "dog."
*A is a canine species also known as the Japanese raccoon dog.
==Strengths and Weaknesses==
This fruit allows its user to become a tanuki, a raccoon-like canine species native to Wano Country. This fruit offers no combat capabilities, but the fruit can be given to an inanimate object to serve as a household pet. Users of this fruit are also subject to the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.
==Usage==
The fruit's bestowed powers have been used to give life to a teapot, Bunbuku. However, by becoming a living creature, Bunbuku lost its function as to boil water as it can be hurt by sitting over a fire.
==Trivia==
*This Devil Fruit turning a teapot into a tanuki is an inverse of the Japanese folktale "Bunbuku Chagama" about a tanuki that can turn into a teapot.
*This Devil Fruit is similar to the non-canon mythical fruit Inu Inu no Mi, Model: Bake-danuki. However, the bake-danuki model is based on the supernatural version of tanuki featured in Japanese folklore, while the tanuki model is based on the real animal. Coincidentally, both fruits were "eaten" by inanimate objects.
*This Devil Fruit is the only standard Zoan fruit to debut in the Wano Country Arc. All the other Zoan debuts were of Ancient, Mythical, or Artificial Devil Fruits.
