Bishonure-Onna is a tall, slim woman with short black hair. She wears kanzashi consisting of pins and a bow to adorn her hair and a yellow yukata with a blue sash.[1] Her makeup and hair are done up to resemble a geisha, and she is considered particularly beautiful among her peers. Due to consuming a Python SMILE, she secretes mucus, which covers her body.[2]
In the anime, she is depicted as having a large, slug-like back end, with a texture resembling mucus.[3]
Even more than other Beasts Pirates members, Bishonure-Onna seems particularly heartless, and was the only one of Black Maria's subordinates to not pity Sanji when he was being beaten by Maria.[4]
Bishonure-Onna has eaten a Python SMILE (ニシキヘビのSMILE,Nishikihebi no Sumairu?), giving her the ability to unhinge her jaw and causing her to secrete mucus from her entire body. She can use her mucus to slow down enemies, which she follows by swallowing them whole.[2]
History[]
Wano Country Saga[]
Wano Country Arc[]
After Black Maria captured Sanji, Bishonure-Onna and her comrades chased him until he fell, surrounding him.[1][5] She watched as Maria battered him and demanded he call out for Nico Robin, and was shocked when he did so. She was equally shocked when Robin and Brook arrived almost immediately, and watched as Robin attacked Maria and Brook rescued Sanji.[4]
The Beasts Pirates attempted to use a hallucinogenic fog on the two Straw Hats, but when it failed, Bishnore-Onna and a few of Maria's subordinates attempted to chase them down. Once Maria joined the chase, her and Robin began fighting in earnest, while Maria's subordinates were held off by Brook.[6] After he made a wall of ice between them and Maria, she heard a scream from the other side, and peeked through a crack to see Maria defeated and Robin standing over her. With the Gifters all lined up to peek through, they were defeated by Brook in a single attack.[7]
In the anime, Black Maria's attendants tormenting Sanji was significantly extended, which Bishonure-Onna participated in.[8]
In the anime, Brook's vision in the Illusion Mist was shown, where Bishonure-Onna played the part of a member of the Rumbar Pirates.[9] Brook's vision wasn't shown in the manga, and what Bishonure-Onna did during the Illusion Mist visions was not revealed.
Trivia[]
Bishonure-Onna, like Nure-Onna, is based on the yōkai nure-onna ("wet woman"). The phrase bishonure (びしょ濡れ?) means "soaking wet", making her the "soaking wet woman".
Her appearance in the anime may have been a mistake due to confusion over her power in the manga, which was unknown and without reliable description, and could be mistaken for a slug rather than a python.
