Tokikake[2], better known by his alias Chaton, is a vice admiral who appeared in SBS Volume 75.[1]
Appearance
Tokikake has broad shoulders, an angular jawline, thin eyes, and a flat nose. He also has a large mouth, high cheekbones, and thick eyebrows. He wears a dark-colored hat, a Marine jacket with a high collar similar to Issho's, and a button-down long-sleeved shirt underneath. He also smokes a pipe.
Personality
As a Marine, Tokikake strongly believes in Justice, though whether she believes in moral justice or absolute justice is not known yet. He also seems to scare easily, as he panicked when a turtle car crashed in front of him on the golf course on Gran Tesoro.[3]
Abilities and Powers
As a vice admiral, Tokikake is capable of using Haki,[4] and has command over lower ranking soldiers. He is strong enough to be a candidate to become an admiral,[1] despite ultimately not being selected.
History
During the Timeskip
During the timeskip, Tokikake was considered as a candidate to become one of the new admirals.[1] However, he did not make the cut, as Issho and Ryokugyu attained the positions instead. He asked Momousagi out 100 times but was rejected each time.
One Piece Film: Gold
On Gran Tesoro, Tokikake played golf with several women around him. However, a turtle car driven by Monkey D. Luffy, Usopp, and Tony Tony Chopper suddenly arrived on the golf course, sending Tokikake into a panic.[3]
Later, Tokikake was with Momousagi in the VIP lounge of the casino.[3]
Trivia
- Although he was not made admiral, his alias follows the scheme of the admirals' code-names being a color and an animal. Chaton (茶豚?) literally means "brown pig", and the Japanese word for brown is cha-iro (茶色, brown color?). Coincidentally, "Chaton" is also the French word for "kitten", which also fits the animal theme.
- His appearance, like the rest of the admirals, is based off of a real actor. In this case, it's Kiyoshi Atsumi, of the Tora-san film series. He's even dressed like Tora-san; His hat, haramaki, necklace, and checkered jacket are all dead giveaways.
