Talk:Crocodile

Awakened
Shouldn't we also list Crocodile as an ? He can turn his surroundings to sand and he can refexebly turn to sand himself, I think that's quite enough to list him as one too. 13:20, November 3, 2015 (UTC)

We don't know what defines an awakened Logia DF user yet, so we can't really say Crocodile is one. Yes, he uses his DF in creative ways. So does Chopper. Just being skilled doesn't automatically mean they're awakened.

Speculation. 15:50, November 3, 2015 (UTC)

Speculation. It's on the Mythbusters page anyway. SeaTerror (talk) 23:56, November 3, 2015 (UTC)

I don't think there is anything strange in him turning the surrounding into sand since one of his ability let him dry things up. Yes, it's flashy, but I don't have to think of an "awakened" fruit to explain it.

Divide
Croco's article is almost 90,000 bytes long so I think that it should be divided. Cracker-Kun (talk) 23:59, July 9, 2019 (UTC)

I would probably support once he becomes active in the story again and his page gets closer to 100k bytes, right now though I don't think it needs a split. Kaido King of the Beasts (talk) 00:07, July 10, 2019 (UTC)

Edits before splitting is better. The "Errors and Corrections" section is something I haven't seen anywhere else on the wiki, and I don't think it's really needed. Rhavkin (talk) 01:13, July 10, 2019 (UTC)

I agree that we wait until it gets to 100k. As for Errors and Corrections, I don't mind the section. There are plenty of errors for other characters in the manga, so it might be worth documenting everywhere. 02:59, July 10, 2019 (UTC)

The "Errors and Corrections" are a volume change, animation error, anime error, and an in-canon filler. If we list every time something like that happen for every character, this will became a junk wiki. Also, the anime addition to the Dressrosa Arc has no benefit, unlike in Kaku's case, since as best as I an recall, there was never a doubt about his appearance in that scene. The Errors and Corrections section is just an example of things that should be edited out before the 100k rule is applied. Rhavkin (talk) 03:11, July 10, 2019 (UTC)

Sir Crocodile's name
So I'm not sure if this conversation has come up in the past, but in the latest chapter, "Sir Crocodile" is written out in the same style as other full names ("Buggy", "Dracule Mihawk", etc.). Has Oda confirmed one way or another if "Sir" is a title or if his full name really is "Sir Crocodile"? Because between this and it showing up like that on the Cross Guild poster, I'm starting to feel like the latter is the case. The Pope 05:07, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

...Actually this is interesting. At first I was gonna say that Oda was just using a common epithet, because like "Sir Crocodile" just sounds cool for that moment. If it was Krieg, I would've guessed Oda would write "Don Krieg". It sounds cool and it's what he's known for. But I got curious, and I went to see how his name is actually written in the character bios at the start of volumes. Volume 23, during Alabasta, he's listed as "Sir Crocodile", or "サー・クロコダイル". Then I checked Volume 56, which is during Impel Down/Marineford. Again, he's "サー・クロコダイル". Crocodile's infobox for Impel Down, in Chapter 540, even says "Sir Crocodile". If it was a true epithet, it would just be "Crocodile", wouldn't it? This is a REALLY interesting observation! I think his surname really is "Sir"; a Sir name. 05:27, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

I'd liken it to if a character's name was "George Sama", you'd probably have people in Japan confused if his surname really is "sama" or if "sama" is an honorific. Like yeah, "Sir Crocodile" sounds cool to us (and probably to Oda too), but he also probably just wanted it to be his name. Also not for nothing, but I'm all aboard the "Crocodile used to be a woman but had Ivankov genderswap him" theory train, and changing his surname to "Sir" as a way to nail that home could've been something Crocodile chose to do, but that's just my headcanon at this point. Regardless, I think it's safe to say that, barring any contradicting statements from Oda about "Sir" being a title, his full name should be changed to "Sir Crocodile". The Pope 23:02, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

Yes, it has been brought up multiple times; you can read some of the discussions on Talk:Crocodile/Archive 1. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 23:17, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

From what I can see, it looks like the general agreement in there is that, yes, "Sir" is his surname. In that case, can we go ahead and rename the page? The Pope 23:48, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

Obviously it's a tier below the manga, but thought it was worth noting that the Vivre Card databook just lists him as "Crocodile". Kaido King of the Beasts (talk) 00:08, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
