Hello and welcome to the Grandline Review your source for everything one piece. And today for the glorious Devil Fruit Encyclopedia, we are going to be exploring one of the most deadly fruits within the entire series, wielded by a man who spends most of his time on the toilet, the Doku Doku, no me. The Doku Doku No Me is a paramedic, you type fruit that allows its user to generate and manipulate various types of poison. And first and foremost, I want to dispel any confusements surrounding the classification of this fruit, and certain segments of the fanbase do often mistake this for a logier fruit. However, the user of the Doku Doku No Me cannot become poison, it just might get confusing because the user in the series just so happens to love covering himself in death goo, thus giving the impression that he becomes poison at times. Speaking of this fruit was consumed by the one time warden of Impel Down Medjelen, and given that it should be fairly reasonable to assume that it made its first parents during the Impel Down Ark. In terms of names and stuff, we have another fairly straightforward fruit here, as Doku is the Japanese word for poison. Although there is a little bit of a fun pun within the name of the devil fruit being Doku because that happens to be the Japanese ornament appear, meaning something along the lines of in a steady stream. Now both viz and funnimation are in agreement regarding the English translation of this fruit, however it's not poison poison as you may suspect, and it is in fact the venom venom fruit, the difference between poison and venom being that venom is a poisonous substance crafted within animals and injected into a target, whereas poison is more of a substance that is secreted and ingested. And it might seem like an odd choice at first, but many techniques used by Impel Down Medjelen actually have venom in their name, so I can see why they went down that venom road. Although actually a lot of his techniques have poison in their name as well, but that's nothing about that. But make no mistake, poison is what this fruit is really all about. And just another brief thing on etymology and semantics, it's worth noting that the Funnimation dub differs considerably from the Vizmânka translation, as they continue the venom naming scheme even when poison would be the more correct translation, both in terms of the little word Doku and in the pragmatic interpretation of the attack. So when I said in the beginning that this was one of the most deadly fruits to have ever existed, I absolutely mean it. Everything about this fruit is designed to irritate, mean or kill whoever just so happens to be around or target by it. That really is up to the discretion of the user as they have complete control over what type of poison they emit as well as its potency. Now as for the extent of poison typings, the most basic distinction that we're able to make is that the user can generate poison in the form of either liquid or gas, with both of them holding their respective advantages and disadvantages. However it isn't necessarily that simple because within those two categories, not only can the user as mentioned before, control the potency of the poison, but they also seem to have more advanced chemical control, and this was demonstrated in the series when Magellan was able to craft a liquid imbued with a heavily corrosive agent. Now I point this out because it's a very common trope in media that the more potent the poison is, the more automatically corrosive or corrosive it all it is, and this simply is not the case. But as a result of this extreme control, the user of the Doku Doku Nami can mimic a wide array of substances such as tear gas. But this in mind I think it's fair to speculate that the user of this fruit would be able to mimic most known poisons within the world, provided they had an understanding of their chemical composition in order to generate them. And this also leaves a lot of potential to augment the fruit's output, as if the user were incapable of generating substance needed to craft a particular type of poison, they would more than likely just be able to add that for an agent to their body, and wields temporary poisonous glory. However this sort of usage would be best suited to a chemist rather than, you know, a wad chailer. Well let's examine how Mr. Magellan makes use of this fine fine fruit, and for the most part it is actually pretty incredible. Magellan is a man of very blunt needs and actions, and his use of the Doku Doku Nami very much reflects that. For a start Magellan has the tendency of coating himself in a layer of liquid poison, a sort of armor per se, which definitely doesn't protect him from being hit, and however it will make the person attempting to strike him think twice, because it will immediately be exposed to what could potentially be deadly poison. Of course Magellan is also a bit more direct than this, and he won't simply wait for someone to hit him, instead referring to Conjure, a Hydra out of poison, which has his impact, only it is entirely offensive, putting any potential opponents in a very unenviable situation, but neither being able to strike the creature nor be struck by the creature. And another wonderful innovation with the fruit that I quite enjoy is the Venom Road technique, in which Magellan engolves himself within said Hydra, and uses it to move at high speed, because it should be said that Magellan can conjure an absolutely ridiculous amount of poison, so he can more or less use it like the tube transport system in Futurama. Now as for a more questionable use of the fruit, this oddly hasn't been stated before now, but consuming the Doka Doka to me will make its user immune to the intended effects of external poisons, like death and such. However it does not, I repeat it does not, negate the effects of foreign poisons entirely, and to demonstrate this, we need only to focus on Magellan's unique appetite. Now Mr. X Warden eats almost exclusively poisoned food, and there is a big, big misconception out there that this fruit is poisoned through Magellan's own devil fruit powers. It is not. Instead, Magellan sources outside Poisons for his fruit, which results in him spending up to 10 hours a day in the bathroom due to the intense diarrhea, the consumption of external poisons causes him. Now equally as terrifying as spending 10 hours a day on the toilet is the idea of awakening this devil fruit, because even if the Doka Doka enemy subscribes to the standard Paramecio awakening, meaning that its user would now be able to turn the environment around him into Poison, then it could become apocalyptic devastating. But while we're here, there is also another misconception that Magellan is already an awakened Paramecio user, and it comes from the idea that Magellan's ultimate attack being the Venendemon was showing influence in the environment, like the stone around Impel Down and Galdeno's whack, stuff like that. This is not an awakening, it's simply what happens when a hypertoxin comes into contact with, well, any substance, it goes on to make a toxic to some degree. An awakening would be more like Magellan waves his hands and transforms a portion of Impel Down into Poison, which both Dolphle Mingo and Charlotte Carter were shown to be capable of with their respective awakenings. And you know that isn't to say that Magellan isn't an awakened user, you just hasn't shown the standard signs of aparamecio awakening, and thus we cannot classify him as such. Some other mislany things to consider, and becoming a poison human. While the Doka Doka Doka enemy does present some fairly fearsome power, its utility is and it's questionable. There is no doubt that the natural tendency of this fruit leans towards destruction, and as such it may be difficult to apply to a peaceful existence, unless of course that existence is achieved through maintaining order, with a particularly heavy hand. Although one thing you may be able to do is contribute to science by replicating various Poisons in order to develop an antidote for them or to study them in some form. Or, and this is a radical idea. But perhaps true mastery of the awakening of this fruit would allow it to use its rough non-poisonous substances that can actually benefit those around them. But admittedly I think that this is a bit of a stretch. But in the end I can't help but come back to the sheer power contained within the Doka Doka no meat. I mean if it simply generated one type of poison then that would be one thing, but the uses ability to control the poison at my new levels is impossible to ignore. This fruit holds incredible potential. However, that potential exists primarily within one sector, which is combat and containment. And you know if that's your jam then this is 100% recommended, because there are very very few other fruits out there that will serve your purposes better. However for those of you who are looking for something that will greatly assist day to day life, well there are many, many better options. And with that we are going to commit the Doka Doka to me to the Devil Fruit in Cyclopedia. Next week we'll be taking a side step from chronology, well not really because it was around this time that chapter 0 came out I guess, but we are going to be setting our sights onto the incredibly floaty powers held by Golden Lion Shiki with the Fuwafua Nomi.

And finally please do comment with your thoughts on the Doka Doka Nomi. This has been the Grandline Review, and I'll see you next time. I understand you have a dog. If he slash she had a devil fruit ability, what would it be? And yes you understand correctly, I have a board of calling named Puck and if he were to possess some sort of devil fruit, then I suspect it would be something related to licking, like the lick lick fruit. Which in my mind wouldn't hence the user's tongue to the point where it has some sort of special powers depending on the desire of the user. Basically this is because Puck is a voracious licker, which is something that all puppies do, and in fact my wife told me that when we first got him that this was all just a phase and that he will grow out of it. But you know, five years later if either of us have foolish enough to put our face close to his, then it is an instantaneous tongue bath. Who would win in an all-out battle, broke or Frankie, although Frankie is not allowed to use his giant robot? Hmm, intriguing. I think this very much depends on what the conditions of victory are. I mean, from Frankie's perspective, we just need to punch things and make sure they don't get up to achieve victory. Now whether Brooks' priorities are somewhat, uh, shall we say, unrelated to combat? In fact, thinking about it, I feel like Brooks' only goal in life is to see panties. I mean, other than the boon, but let's be honest, panties trump whale. So Brook actually becomes the automatic winner of this fight, because Frankie's undergarments are on display at all times. How long did it take you to grow your channel? Well, it's still growing, so I can't give you quite a solid answer on that, but I can pinpoint when it started to take off. And essentially, it took about an entire year of making content solidly. Mainly chapter of use and one piece one who wants to gain any sort of traction. So by the end of the first year that I'd been making stuff consistently, I had 500 subscribers, which I thought was incredible at the time, and I would like to thank everyone who did subscribe in the early days of the questionable content. But after that, things just kind of exploded. I'm not really sure how. A month later, that count doubled to 1000, but by the time the next year came around, we were sitting at over 30,000, and now here we are having toppled 100,000. It's been incredibly surreal, June. Why don't you make 10 min's video as, or do sponsors? Or it's a starting with sponsors to put it frankly, I've never been offered a legitimate sponsorship. I have however been approached by a lot of dodgy companies who proposed to quote unquote, sponsor the channel through affiliate marketing, which I highly recommend nobody out there ever partakes in, because it's just a scam for the large majority of the time. As for 10 minute video-as, I absolutely do make those although they are a lot rarer on this channel because it focuses on delivering clear, concise and easily digestible content. As a result, I can't really add a lot of padding to the videos, nor can I um, or a lot because I hate that. However, something I could theoretically do is artificially extend a video by adding a question and answer segment to the end in order to reach that sweet, sweet 10 minute mark and still provide you with some sort of quality content. But of course that's just hypothetical. I mean, who would have it do such a thing?
