I read your fic, memos a few days ago and wonder if pokian were based on existing race? I'm sorry If It comes out rude, I'm just a bit confused after reading the manga today. I thought King was Hoku's long lost cousin. You don't need to answer this ask if you don't feel comfortable tho, I tend to not read notes so it should be my fault if you have ever explained it
SPOILERS ABOUT THE MOST RECENT ONE PIECE CHAPTERS UNDER THE CUT
omggg okay i know i figured i was going to get more of these questions since the reveal of King's face and anon, let me tell you
IM JUST AS SURPRISED LOLOL CAN YOU BELIEVE MY FACE WHEN THEY SHOWED KING AND HE LITERALLY LOOKED LIKE A POKIAN IM-
Pokians when I created them were not based on an existing race in One Piece, they were an island and group I created to add to the OP world. They do have some relation to certain things, but we're not sure of that just yet. The island of Artopoki has its own history I intend to dwell deeper into as the story progresses, maybe history even longer than Hoku's ever realized ;)
But basically no, King looking like Hoku's long lost cousin/a Pokian is totally unintentional and a complete coincidence LOL. I'm kinda wildin' out about the whole thing, but now I'm looking forward to seeing how I can tie these new developments together without it changing to much and I think I have an idea ;)
I'm not sure if all Lunarians look like King, but at least the wings make a good distinction HAHAHAH.
