Talk:Fuga

SMILE
The note about him eating a SMILE is a deleted concept, just like Denjiro serving Oden before the Mountain God Incident or Izou and Kikunojo's surname. Rhavkin (talk) 20:09, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

It seems to me like R2LT frames this concept as a "fleshing out" of Fuga and Yamato's backstory and matter of factly states that Fuga gained his horse body by eating a SMILE. The other two concepts you mentioned were explicitly changed in the manga. Kaido King of the Beasts (talk) 20:53, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Agreed with Kaidou. There's no other explanation for Fuga having a horse lower half otherwise. It's more of a deleted scene than a deleted concept. KingCannon (talk) 23:18, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

So you are ignoring the fact that Fuga Wasn't smiling in that scene and when he noticed Yamato in Chapter 1031? Each member of the numbers have a different appearance and all of them are nearly always smiling, so you can't use appearance as reasoning. We don't know why this scene was deleted nor what information from it was kept. Oda had and still have many ways to confirm Fuga or any character appearance and\or possible Devil Fruit, and what we know about Fuga to this point isn't enough.

Let me make it clear: I am not saying Fuga isn't a SMILE user, just that 1nformation given via a deleted scene or concept isn't confirmation. We can't pick and choose which R2LT facts we include as canon if we have multiple deleted scene we consider only concept. Rhavkin (talk) 03:00, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

At this point there is more evidence that Fuga is a SMILE user than there is for him not being one. He is the only of the Number's with distinctly animalistic body-parts. If any random member of the Beast Pirates showed up with horse legs, then we would also put them down as a SMILE user. Damage3245 (talk) 19:51, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

Seriously?? Every number has animalistic features. Juki is a bi-paddle crocodile. Fuga's legs is the only point, and he was shown not smiling in 1031. That is more then enough to confirm he is not a SMILE user. He was even crying in the same concept were it was said he ate a SMILE, which is canonically impossible. Please explain to me your math for "more evidence that Fuga is a SMILE user than there is for him not being one" 20:27, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

Only failed SMILE users are forced to smile, though... 20:35, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

Awaikage is correct. Fuga is a successful SMILE user since he has animal legs, so he wouldn't be forced to smile... Not all Gifters or Headliners do. Damage3245 (talk) 20:45, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

True; my bad. It is still basically concept vs. appearance based so it still should be no more then a trivia note at this point. Rhavkin (talk) 03:11, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Where was it stated? SeaTerror (talk) 05:34, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Why does it being appearance-based mean it is too unfounded to be put onto the page? If we saw another Beast pirate member with half an octopus sticking out of his chest, I would feel confident in listing him as a SMILE user until we had any more information that disproved otherwise.

RtLT has the following "this snippet which shows how Fuga wound up eating a SMILE to get four legs". This very much appears to confirm the source of Fuga's centaur half, even if the scene by itself doesn't show up in the manga proper. KingCannon (talk) 13:27, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
