Talk:Dodai

Hair vs. Hat

I always thoguth the "black color" on his head is a kind of head, the hair is light-colored when you look on it. VolteMetalic (talk) 10:09, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

The black thing is a hat and his hair is dark coloured. Although even in the tankōbon version, his hair looks light-coloured in one frame, but that's at an odd angle. For the rest of the panels his hair is dark-coloured.--Cerez₃₆₅™ 11:59, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

It isnt mentioned here he has a hat. VolteMetalic (talk) 16:17, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

"...and a stylised forehead protector in the form of a hat."--Cerez₃₆₅™ 16:28, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

Infobox image

So, we were introduced to him in a flashback, but we know have him in his current appearance. I believe his current, aged look should be in the infobox. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:59, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

I agree.--Deva 27 22:02, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, it was like that before but I was under the misconception that it was the other way around. Either way is fine, no information is lost.--Cerez₃₆₅™ 22:04, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

Name

Like Darui, Samui, Atsui etc., Dodai's name can also have a meaning that is an adjective, right? If so, what can it mean? I guess it should be noted. --kiadony --talk to me-- 14:01, September 1, 2011 (UTC)

We dunno yet, Shounen normally gives us titbits like that, but we'll need the raws first.--Cerez₃₆₅™ 14:07, September 1, 2011 (UTC)

Barring any unusual kanji, Dodai can really only mean two things:

1. 'Rough draft' (土代); and
2. 'Foundation' (土台).

The spoiler script used katakana for the name, so either one can apply. —ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs | translations)} 14:16, September 1, 2011 (UTC)

Non of them is adjective. --VolteMetalic (talk) 23:23, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, I should have mentioned that… Dodai isn't an adjective in Japanese. Despite having a similar form, Dodai doesn't follow the established theme. When meaning 'foundation', it can be and adverb, though. —ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs | translations)} 01:03, September 3, 2011 (UTC)

Lariat

I think, we should add Lariat to his jutsu, because he showed how to use it.GothicWarrior (Dyskusja) 18:47, September 7, 2011 (UTC)
