I probably would have taken the safe route and gone with your first choice, but you manipulated the story (but enough so that it was still the OP we all know and love) to a degree where Razi actually fit in with current and past storylines! I respect anyone who can keep up with that!!! Plus Razi's conflicted personalities between pleasure and commitment is astoundingly attention-grabbing. The necklace is really beautiful too~! I can't wait to here more about him!
I think it's perfectly okay to have a few people with the same devil fruit power as long as skill and use of powers isn't copied or greater than the original character. You made it work with Razi! Jewelry Bonney uses it to mess with people, but Razi is only interested with preserving himself. Both a blessing and a curse, really. VERY GOOD CHARACTER! VERY GOOD! A+++++
I think I can be called a fanatic by now. Aside from the anime, I've recently picked up the manga (altough I'm ages behind) and started reading from chapter 1. I also collect all the merchandice I can get my hands on (especially those of Zoro). Which in my country isn't much unfortunatly, but I did manage to get the wii game unlimited cruise ep 1 (and finished it in 3 days XD)
I've been a bit vague on the rokushiki, since I've come up with two situations which explain the reason why Razi has these skills, but I'm not sure which to use yet.
One of them is indeed Razi being a CP9 member at one point in his life. (him being in a somewhat similar position as Lucci was in the series, but a long time before that.)
The second one is what i want to go with, but since the series is still running I'm not sure it will eventually fit in (and it's no fun faving it stray from the original story too much) I'm not really sure about using it yet.
But I figuered since Razi is old he probably was around already when the CP9 was created and when that was isn't really kown either, so...
I figuered that Razi's father might have been the creator (or one of the creators) of CP9. Wanting his son to join he thought Razi all forms of the rokushiki. In fact Razi probably would have become a CP9 member if he hadn't lost the necklace. Wanting to keep his past a secret a much as possible he hardly ever uses any of the rokushiki technigues.
Wow! That was really descriptive and more original than most chars I've seen! The mastery of Rokushiki thing kinda threw me off, but I kinda guessed that if you're that old it's more than likely you've lived one life as a CP9 member. At least, that's my interpritation! XDDD Nice coloring!

Nice pic.
So are you a One Piece fanatic or do you just like watching it?
