Fighting Style
Jimbei is a whale-shark Fish-Man, and is a master of Fish-Man Karate, in which he obtained a black belt as a child. Fish-Man Karate revolves around the manipulation of water around the user's vicinity for attacks. It can also be used to send powerful waves through the air that impact the water content in an enemy's body. Jimbei's fighting style revolves around slow but powerful strikes and punches that can manipulate water, while also having decent one-on-one potential through several grapple moves. On top of manipulating water remotely, he can also touch and grab water as if it were like tangible cloth, using it as a weapon to swing at enemies. As a whale-shark Fish-Man, Jimbei also has the unique ability to communicate with whale-sharks, occasionally calling upon them to aid in his attacks.
