Appearance
Katakuri is a very tall, large, and muscular man with short spiky black hair and two symmetric scars on both sides of his face. He has sharp, intense eyes, highly arched eyebrows, and prominent lower eyelashes under each eye. He wears a massive light ragged scarf that covers his mouth and reaches his shoulders. He also wears a torn leather jacket that exposes most of his torso, dark gloves and pants, a belt with a skull-shaped buckle, and spiked boots with spurs. His torso is covered in tattoos, and he wears spiked bracelets on his arms as well as knee pads with a single spike on them.
Personality
Katakuri is very serious is usually very serious unless he is startled(usually from a vision of the future he occasionally sees),. He is very committed to his crew and his families objectives. Since his Kenbunshoku Haki allows him to see into the future he is able to efficiently handle threats he is one of the few pirates of Big Mom that can act without being told directly what to do. Even though he is a high ranking member of the Big Mom pirates he is very pragmatic and knows when he is at a disadvantage or has made a mistake. He is one of the few antagonist that does not brag about his abilities, instead he is focused on accomplishing his goals.
He also seems to have a caring side which was revealed when he used his Devil Fruit powers to create ear plugs not only for himself but also for his fellow siblings. This side is shown again when he was quick to rescue his sisters Charlotte Galette from falling off the collapsed Chateau and Charlotte Brûlée from her captors, though the latter case may have been done to prevent their enemies from using her any further in their plans as he did grab her neck in a threatening way and express his annoyance at how much use they put her to.[Regardless, he understood that Brûlée was forced to support the Straw Hats against her will and did not see her actions as treason. This was shown as he later asked her in accompanying him to take out the Straw Hats following their escape.[He also showed concern for his brother Charlotte Perospero after he was caught in an explosion.He prevented Luffy from attacking Charlotte Mascarpone and Charlotte Joscarpone, stating that they were his precious siblings.
Abilities and Powers
As a Sweet Commander, Katakuri’s authority in the Big Mom Pirates is second only to his mother’s own. His bounty of 1,057,000,000 proves that the government views him as extremely dangerous. Even Capone Bege of the infamous Worst Generation considers him a monstrous threat. He is seen effortlessly defeating Ichiji, one of the Germa 66 commanders with genetically enhanced strength, in a matter of seconds, without incurring any injury himself.
Physical Abilities: Katakuri has tremendous physical strength, being able to flick jellybeans with enough force and velocity that they function similarly to bullets. Even from a very far distance, Katakuri can easily kill a man sitting atop a gigantic wedding cake with a flicked jellybean. The greatest display of his strength is when he easily overpowered Vinsmoke Ichiji, a genetically modified human and a commander of Germa 66 and emerged without a scratch.
He also has considerable accuracy, as he managed to hit Jigra from so far away that Bege did not even notice him, and later would have hit Sanji as well had the latter not dodged at the last moment. He is incredibly fast in launching his attacks as Monkey D. Luffy, an expert Kenbunshoku Haki user, barely had time to react to Katakuri’s attack. He is shown to have a strong will, being able to withstand a burst of Big Mom’s haki and remain conscious from her loud scream.
Devil Fruit
Katakuri ate the Mochi Mochi no Mi, a Logia-type Devil Fruit that lets him turn any part of his body into mochi, which has strong adhesive properties. He is capable of wielding massive amounts of the substance as a large blunt weapon, though it loses its effectiveness when exposed to moisture.
The user is given the ability to control large amounts of mochi; the mochi is thick enough to be used as a large blunt weapon, and is capable of trapping people, even extremely strong ones, due to its stickiness, especially if empowered by Busoshoku Haki. Its thickness and viscosity is such that large-caliber gunfire is completely unable to pierce through it.
Although a Paramecia-type, it has shown some effects of an actual Logia power: the current user was able to transform into mochi to block off bullets or being blown apart by an explosive attack only to reform. Jinbe notes this fruit as a “special Paramecia”. In contrast to a Logia power, mochi is a man-made substance instead of an element or force of nature.
As with all Devil Fruits, this one has the potential to be “awakened”, which allows the user to turn inorganic material around them into mochi.
Kenbunshoku Haki: Katakuri has mastered Haki to such degree that he can see slightly ahead into the future. He was able to detect and instantly thwart an assassination attempt on Big Mom and her affiliates that would have been carried out moments later by a vengeful guest invitee. His predictions were shown to be accurate when he justified his killing of the guest to Bege and knew word for word how the latter would respond to him. Bege recognized him as the greatest obstacle to his own assassination plan.
The future events Katakuri sees can be changed, which he often attempts to do so himself, as shown when he prevented Jigra from carrying out the assassination plot he foresaw. However, changing the future may not solve anything or make things worse, as shown when he tried to shoot Sanji. Other people are also capable of changing the foreseen future. Also, he is unable to see the cause of his foresight, as he was confused as to why Pudding was crying at the altar.
He also uses it in battle as he is able to predict where his opponent will dodge during his first attack and adjust accordindly allowing him to hit them with follow up move. Luffy is one of the few people able to dodge both his moves and notes that this is “stressing him out” because of it.
Busoshoku Haki: Katakuri is also capable of using Busoshoku Haki, shown when he managed to externally injure Luffy when he imbued Haki into his Mochi leg.
Weapons: Katakuri wields a trident in battle. He is first seen wielding it during Vinsmoke Sanji and Charlotte Pudding’s wedding ceremony. He has also been shown flicking jellybeans with such velocity that they function similarly to bullets fired from a gun.
Marksmanship: Katakuri posses enough accuracy to hit a person in the head from far away and to kill his victim immediately. He can even shoot multiple Jellybeans at once to hit many targets who are runnig away from him.
Spearmanship: Katakuri wields a trident named Mogura in battle.[He was first seen wielding it during Vinsmoke Sanji and Charlotte Pudding’s wedding ceremony. When not in use, he seems to keep the trident inside his mochi body. Katakuri is extremely skilled in wielding his trident Mogura. He uses it in conjunction with his Devil Fruit powers and physical prowess to perform devastating thrusts.
