Trivia

 * Foxes are nocturnal hunters.
 * Catarina has mystical fox DF.
 * Catarina's epithet has "moon hunter".

Why is this even up for discussion? Rhavkin (talk) 00:29, November 25, 2018 (UTC)

Vivre Card stated that her epithet relates to her hunting beautiful women. I'm not sure what moon hunter has to do with foxes either. Kaido King of the Beasts (talk) 00:54, November 25, 2018 (UTC)

What Kaido said. Foxes can hunt in the day too if they need to. SeaTerror (talk) 00:59, November 25, 2018 (UTC)

An epithet can have more then one meanings. It can be a nickname like Luffy or Nami, it can be an signature act like Zoro and Sanji, it can be a personality trait like Chopper and Kuma, it can be a physical description like Franky and Shanks, and it can be a title like Brook and Buggy.

Now, I don't know Japanese so I'm relying on others' translation, but was she hunting beautiful women exclusively at night? Nights with a crescent moon? Was she given that epithet because of when she killed them, or the how?

Kitsune and beautiful women are also heavily connected. Rhavkin (talk) 06:53, November 25, 2018 (UTC)

Maybe it does have a double meaning, but I find any connection with foxes to be extremely tenuous and speculative. The fact that foxes are nocturnal is hardly anything to go off of. If her fruit had more of a connection to the moon, like a wolf, then it might make sense.

We already have a lot of connections between this fruit and Devon's conception, I see no reason to insert something about her epithet, especially something as vaguely written as "This matches Catarina Devon's epithet". Kaido King of the Beasts (talk) 04:23, November 26, 2018 (UTC)

The fact that wolves are more commonly symbolizes night doesn't mean foxes aren't. And if its a problem with how the trivia is written, then it should be changed, not removed. Rhavkin (talk) 05:18, November 26, 2018 (UTC)

I don't really see many correlations between the moon and foxes. Foxes tend to be popularly associated with illusions, trickery and even ghosts or fire (Kinemon's Kitsunebi-ryu, for example), not necessarily the night. KingCannon (talk) 13:19, November 26, 2018 (UTC)
