does kakuzu have any weaknesses, physical or emotional/mental? any fears? (sorry if you've answered something similar to this before!)
ooc. I don't think I've received anything like this before so thank you bunches and don't worry 'bout it ♡
Kakuzu died solely through the power of protagonist bs, and this is a fact. If not for Naruto Shitass Uzumaki's ability to perfect jutsus in mere days, that poor tormented soul would still be with us because he is tremendously over-powered.
What I'm trying to say is that Kakuzu does not have many physical weaknesses save for his back when exposed. And this is going to be a picking-a-needle-out-of-a-haystack observation, but upon considering them, his tendrils somewhat resemble striated muscles and are exuded at parts of his body where they are normally found——the arms, legs, back, whatever. The only exception of this would be when he ' vomited ' that shit... The only conceivable place the tendrils could've came from would be his face. Otherwise his throat would have to be penetrable lmao. But, I digress.
Muscles require ATP to perform, which is created by oxygen delivered by the bloodstream, so their performance relies on bloodflow. Without it, they would be virtually useless. Even if they are not formed of his skeletal muscles——even though I think there's a good chance that they are; did you know that they can regrow and restitch themselves? Plus, their movement must be voluntary——without proper oxygenated blood supply, he would not be able to utilize the Earth Grudge Fear. He would also not be able to perform with a compromised nervous system though that's applicable to everyone.
Kakuzu's biggest weakness is himself. Without a goal or purpose in mind ( hence his infatuation with money; his bounties ) his memories become prevalent, and they are particularly painful. They can inhibit him from interacting with others, participating in events, and cause him to behave irrationally——either in a good or bad way. I do believe he has a bit of a soft side. Like, at least medium-rare.
He has lived for too long to be afraid of much. What would kill him the most would be to lose all those fat stacks.
