ONE PIECE GOLDD: Is that thing on the Almighty God Enel-san’s head a rubber swimming cap?
O: …yes. That’s it. (lazy explanation) Oh, no wait. There’s no rubber on the Sky Islands. So… it’s made of cloth. (mega-lazy explanation)
Enel resembels the famous rap singer Eminem but it was never stated that Eminem was the actual inspiration for Enel’s look
In one SBS Oda drew haw Enel would look like without his cap
Enel is the first major antagonist to use Haki. He is also the first major antagonist in the series that is not a pirate or a Marine
Enel is also the name of the main Italian electric company
The symbols seen on Enel’s drums are called tomoe and are very common in Japanese heraldry such as family emblems and corporate logos. The tomoe are also present on another One Piece character,Sentomaru
A tomoe (巴 or 鞆絵, ともえ) and tomowe (ともゑ) in its archaic form, is a Japanese abstract shape described as a swirl that resembles a comma or the usual form of a magatama. The origin of tomoe is uncertain. Some think that it originally meant tomoe (鞆絵), or drawings on tomo (鞆), a round arm protector used by an archer, whereas others see tomoe as stylized magatama. It is a common design element in Japanese family emblems (家紋 kamon) and corporate logos, particularly in triplicate whorls known asmitsudomoe (三つ巴). Some view the mitsudomoe as representative of the threefold division (Man, Earth, and Sky) at the heart of the Shinto religion. Originally, it was associated with the Shinto war deity Hachiman, and through that was adopted by the samurai as their traditional symbol. One mitsudomoe variant, the Hidari Gomon, is the traditional symbol of the Ryūkyū Kingdom. The Koyasan Shingon sect of Buddhism uses the Hidari Gomon as a visual representation of the cycle of life.
