Karasumaru

The Karasumaru is a Dial Boat in Skypiea.

Appearance and DesignEdit

The craft was black with a black bird's head on the bow. Its only notable feature, besides the bird head, is that it has two breath Dials for propulsion.

HistoryEdit

Skypiea ArcEdit

Conis used to use Karasumaru before she learned how to use a waver. She lent it to Luffy, Sanji, and Usopp after the Going Merry was taken to Upper Yard.^[1] It was wrecked in Upper Yard.^{[citation needed]}

Translation and Dub IssuesEdit

"Karasu" (鴉, karasu^?) means "crow", while "maru" (丸, maru^?) means "ring" or "perfect" and is a common suffix in male names. Put together, however, "Karasumaru" literally means "Little Crow".
