Kaku’s one of those characters who just sticks with you, y’know? His goofy giraffe form, his weirdly endearing personality—it’s hard to imagine 'One Piece' fully shelving him. Post-Wano, the story’s diving deeper into the World Government’s secrets, and CP0’s right in the thick of it. Kaku could easily show up as a middleman, caught between orders and his own moral gray zone (remember his conflicted vibe during Water 7?). Plus, Zoro’s growth since their last fight begs for a rematch. Imagine Kaku, now stronger, testing Zoro’s new Kitetsu blade or dropping hints about Imu. Even if it’s just a brief appearance, his return would tie up loose threads and add depth to the endgame. Oda’s got a knack for looping old characters back in when you least expect it, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed!
As a longtime fan who’s obsessed with the lore, Kaku’s return feels inevitable. The guy’s a former CP9 turned CP0 agent, and that organization’s been lurking in the shadows forever. Wano teased their involvement, but we barely scratched the surface. Kaku’s dynamic with the Straw Hats—especially Zoro—is too rich to leave unexplored. Remember Enies Lobby? That rivalry had layers! Now, with the World Government’s power plays escalating, he could re-emerge as a reluctant antagonist or even a wildcard ally. And let’s not forget his devil fruit—the Giraffe Zoan is visually iconic, and Oda doesn’t waste designs like that. I’d love to see him grappling with loyalty conflicts or dropping lore bombs about the Void Century. Whether it’s in Egghead, Elbaf, or a surprise Final War appearance, Kaku’s too narratively juicy to stay gone.
Kaku’s gotta come back—no way Oda’s done with him. CP0’s still active, and his history with the Straw Hats is prime material for future clashes or uneasy alliances. Plus, his devil fruit’s too fun to retire. I’m betting on a surprise appearance in the next major arc.
Man, the whole Kaku situation is such a wild card! After Wano, 'One Piece' has been dropping hints like breadcrumbs, and I can't help but feel he'll resurface. Remember how CP0 was lurking around during the raid? Kaku's connection to them, plus his history with the Straw Hats, makes him prime material for a comeback. Maybe not as a full antagonist, but as a chaotic neutral wildcard—like, imagine him showing up in Elbaf with some cryptic intel or tangled in the Cross Guild mess. Oda loves bringing back old faces when you least expect it, and Kaku’s design and fighting style are too cool to retire permanently. I’d bet my last berry on him popping up in a future arc, probably with Lucci in tow, stirring up drama.
That said, it’s 'One Piece'—nothing’s predictable. For all we know, he’s off-screen recovering from his Wano injuries or secretly working undercover. The series thrives on unresolved threads, and Kaku’s got unfinished business with Zoro (those sword skills need a rematch!). Whether he’s a foe, ally, or just a glorified cameo, his return would add so much spice to the post-Wano world. Here’s hoping Oda gives us that giraffe-neck chaos again soon!

"After everything you've done for me, I don't deserve to stand here and apologize for how I've treated you." He leaned closer. "I wronged you, Cat. Please forgive me and give me another chance to show you I want to be the man you deserve."
"Go, Leo, and be with the woman you chose over me. If you think I'd forgive you after what you've done to me, then you must think I'm a fool. You don't deserve my forgiveness, and you surely don't deserve my respect as the Alpha of the Crescent Moon pack." I turned to leave the gathering hall when he grabbed my wrist.
"Tell me what you want me to do, and I'll do it. If I must leave the pack and no longer be the Alpha, then I will do it. If it means you'll forgive me."

"I love you, Lia. I love you so much and I'm so sorry. Please come back to me." He said, inching closer to me.
His fingers grazed my cheeks sending an electrifying feeling all over my body.
Memories of how were departed flashed across my mind and I just can't help the pang in my chest. I loved him once but he didn't want me then.
My heart raced as the thoughts ran across my mind. What if I accept him and he does it again? What if he leaves me the second time? Can I trust him again?
I sucked in a deep breath and did the first thing that came to my mind. I walked away.

Few years after he divorced her, Lia's ex husband returned. He wanted to make things right with her and begged her to come back to him.
But things were different now. She was no longer the weak wolf-less girl he was once married to. She is now a powerful Luna of a prestigious park.
Will Lia abandon the happy life she built for herself and go back to her ex husband despite everything he did to her? Will she follow her heart desires or do the right thing? Is there a second chance for a perfect love story between her and her ex husband?
unwanted princess KIARA who desired nothing more than her father's affection, her brother's love, and her fiancé's devotion spent her entire life chasing a happiness that was never meant for her. Branded a sinner from the day she was born because the beloved Empress died giving birth to her, she became the empire's most despised princess. Every sacrifice she made was ignored, every achievement was claimed by others, and every wound she endured was met with indifference. Even after marrying the man she had loved for years, she remained nothing more than a forgotten wife.
On the day of his coronation, her husband abandoned her to rescue the empire's cherished second princess, leaving his lawful wife trapped inside a burning church. As the flames closed around her, she smiled through her tears, believing death would finally reunite her with her mother and beloved second brother.
Instead, she opened her eyes in the Imperial Palace, sixteen years before her tragic end.
The gentle princess who once begged for love was gone. In her place stood a woman carrying memories of betrayal, heartbreak, and a future soaked in blood. This time, she would never hide her brilliance, sacrifice herself for those who despised her, or allow others to steal what rightfully belonged to her. She would rise to power, uncover the truth behind her mother's death, and expose the conspiracy that had ruined her life from the very beginning.
As forgotten secrets slowly surface and hidden enemies reveal themselves, the empire will discover that the unwanted princess they mocked is no longer the same girl they abandoned. Armed with knowledge of the future and an unbreakable resolve, she will rewrite history, make every traitor pay for their sins, and force the entire empire to regret casting aside the daughter they never deserved.
Man, Kaku's devil fruit reveal was one of those classic Oda twists that had me laughing and amazed at the same time. During the Enies Lobby arc, when he first ate the 'Ushi Ushi no Mi, Model: Giraffe,' I remember thinking, 'A giraffe? Seriously?' But damn, Oda made it work. Watching Kaku's lanky frame stretch even further with those neck attacks and his sword techniques blending with giraffe kicks was bizarrely brilliant.
What really sold me was how he turned something seemingly goofy into a legitimately threatening power. His 'Bigan' technique, where he spins his neck like a saw, or 'Rankyaku' slashes combined with giraffe legs—it shouldn’t work, but it does. It’s peak 'One Piece' logic: take the absurd, own it, and make it cool. Even his personality leaned into it; that deadpan giraffe pose lives in my head rent-free.
Can't stop picturing the chaos of the final clash in 'Wano' and wondering where someone like Garp would fit into that picture. If I'm being hopeful and dramatic, I imagine a short, thunderous cameo rather than a full-on return to the frontlines. Oda loves emotional payoffs and family beats, and Garp showing up—even for a single panel where he stares down the fallout of the battle or quietly meets Luffy afterward—would land heavy. It wouldn't need to be a fight scene; a brief exchange where his complicated pride and soft spot for Luffy leak through would be enough to give fans chills.
Realistically, though, the logistics make a big intervention by Garp during the finale unlikely. 'Wano' is an isolated, politically thorny war involving Yonkos, samurai, and a pirate alliance; a Marine admiral—or Garp, who still carries Marine baggage—bursting in would shift the narrative tone and legal consequences in ways Oda usually prefers to handle in aftermath chapters. So I see him showing up in the immediate fallout: giving terse commentary to other Marines, dealing with repercussions for his family ties, or appearing at the celebratory/aftermath moments where characters reflect and the world reacts.
Either way, whether it's a blink-and-you-miss-it panel or a meaningful post-battle scene, I feel like a Garp moment would be crafted to highlight the emotional resonance of the victory rather than steal the spotlight. I’d be thrilled if he popped in for a gruff, unexpected hug or a grumpy line about Luffy’s reckless nature—classic Garp—because that kind of beat would make the finale feel fuller and more satisfying to me.
Kaku's recruitment into CP9 is one of those wild twists that only 'One Piece' could pull off seamlessly. Initially introduced as a shipwright at Galley-La Company in Water 7, he seemed like just another quirky side character—until the big reveal. The moment he and Rob Lucci shed their disguises, it blew my mind. What's fascinating is how his background as a skilled carpenter actually fed into his role in CP9; his mastery of the Rokushiki techniques, especially the geometric precision of his Rankyaku attacks, feels like an extension of his craftsmanship.
What really sticks with me is the emotional whiplash. One minute, he's this goofy guy with a long nose joking around with the Straw Hats, and the next, he's a cold-blooded assassin. Oda played the long game with his integration—CP9 had been embedded in Water 7 for years, and Kaku's loyalty to the organization ran deeper than his friendships. His devil fruit, the Ushi Ushi no Mi: Model Giraffe, even feels like a dark joke on his lanky physique. The whole arc is a masterclass in subverting expectations.
