Appearance[]
Sugamichi and Warazane are pink catfish with round bodies larger than an average human.
Abilities and Power[]
Despite being fish, Sugamichi and Warazane are somehow capable of living on land. They are also able to move silently like ninja while carrying their masters.[1]
History[]
Wano Country Arc[]
Sugamichi and Warazane carried Fujin and Raijin when the Orochi Oniwabanshu chased intruders in Orochi's castle.[1][3][4] Later, they appeared in Rasetsu Town when the Oniwabanshu was summoned to combat the rebels.[5] Sugamichi and his master Fujin pursued Roronoa Zoro and Kouzuki Hiyori into the forest, but Fujin was defeated by Zoro.[6]
Trivia[]
- In Japanese mythology, a giant catfish (or namazu) is said to live underground and cause earthquakes. In the 19th century, a known art genre called namazu-e often depicted the god Takemikazuchi riding atop the catfish to restrain it.
- Their names are likely derived from the Japanese poet Sugawara no Michizane. According to a legend, Michizane once used his sword to defeat a giant catfish blocking the road in Chikushino, which caused the catfish to turn into stone.
