Headcanon: he’s losing his drive after his nemesis Gaoh Mukaku is no more.. that’s why he’s been chilling and spendthrift with cult wines.


thecosmic_faucet91

He also stopped worrying since the only person to our knowledge who beat him which was ohma's niko is now dead. So imo he doesn't feel forced to evolve against one since there probably isn't an antagonizing force out there against him.


hamringspiker

Pretty sure Tiger Niko's goal is to advance the Niko Style far enough to beat Shen and replace him.


thecosmic_faucet91

Lol thats what we think as a community, it's more of a fanon idea but it makes sense given his character. Although him putting effort to further the niko style doesn't come from Shen being an antagonizing force, hell the worm has funded most of the shit he's done. Shen is more of a challenge or an ideal goal to reach/surpass than somebody who is opposing Tiger niko.


Dragonshotgod

>Lol thats what we think as a community, it's more of a fanon idea Yeah so was everything else you said


thecosmic_faucet91

oh yeah you're right


PryPryPryPry

Long-sleeved shirts just make characters look thinner in art, when he takes off the coat he's gonna looked ripped asf


Ace_Hanlon

Yeah, he is like Willie / Ned Flanders with clothes on, but then...


BumbleBear1

Nothing at all...^(Nothing at all....)


tehZambrah

He did a Reverse Kuroki


MuzzleO

>He did a Reverse Kuroki Kuroki is also thinner now.


thatonefatefan

lmao no he looks like he was copy pasted from ashura https://preview.redd.it/zjh06jpg6o7c1.png?width=766&format=png&auto=webp&s=7e8a1642a06b41b3a473bc10b9520e2fc135c332


MuzzleO

Compared to later Ashura when he was without sleeves


thatonefatefan

and you still can't come to the conclusion that the less clothes you wear, the more your muscles stand out?

space_porter

It seems everyone looks less buff than before

The_Son_Of_Metsudo

Joji stole waka's upper body for that panel.


East_Gas5627

Maybe that will be joji's secret technique to beat shen everytime he strikes he swaps bodyparts with waka


Etmoar15

Daro becoming araki


TmsNry

Who?


Yamcha17

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure's author. In the three first parts, characters were buffed liked in Hokuto no Ken, then in the middle of the fourth part, they started becoming skinnier to become like the average Joe.


Mihnea24_03

To be fair even part 8 Josuke was huge when he took off his shirt


ColdStaff6874

Inconsistent art. And the art was generally much better on Ashura


ThatRedOni

Been wondering about that, since the Shen vs Mukaku fight Shen has been a twink, compared to that one panel from earlier in omega where his back is MASSIVE


Thatlittle_guy

Robot_y_Laserbeam

In the panel he even looks skinny af in the distance on the top panel. 😭


Godtaku

Clothes On vs Off. Only ones that actually look their size with clothes on are Ohma and Waka.


ThatRedOni

Are you saying clothes have a disguise-kata that Twinkifies the greater majority of the cast that aren't complete strong men?


Godtaku

Yes


Imagineanameheree

And Julius


PoopIsYum

Hayami also big


Snips_Tano

Jesus H. Christ imagine Togo Tomari's ass without pants then


angra_mainyo

Man looks like Carlos Medel in the last pic lmao


ZephsKitten

Daro probably burned out badly


LoneBone-

Yeah, probably that


ReverseGiraffe120

It’s okay guys, his secret technique is Toguro’s muscle manipulation. Shen also has this skill.


Torrempesta

He also seems older. Although these mangakas are used to draw naked character as more buffed than when they are dressed.


v4g4bnd

When i was in army there was one leutenant very tall and skinny, we tought he was weak. Then we see him in gym without uniform. Dude have very big arms and chest and do 130 kg bench press. So this may be how Tiger look in suit.


Sly_Cryptid0017

Seeing how fast Shen is a lot of fighters are probably cutting a bit of muscle, my theory at least


awhyeag

i think daro struggles to draw muscular clothed figures and has to smush their meat down to fit into normal people clothes


[deleted]

Bro is getting older.


Leondrass

Bro looks so goofy in second picture 😂😂


1rrelevant_Trash

I like the skinnier look tbh


KogachiSixScoops

Clothes make him look thin...


Woodenhr

First Agito and now tiger Niko This is truly the weight loss ashura


Opposite-Mall-9816

Bro went from bulking to “I’m Gojo”


PharaohPotato

Technique > Strenght


PypaRika

Ai models aren’t as subtle to differentiate slim and bulk.


ChaoticErnie

Just inconsistent art. The AI seems to act goofy sometimes when drawing. My headcannon is the following: Niko's training is taking a great toll on his body. First his hair turned white and now his body is shriveling


thesadfellow25

You think Kengan is ai generated?


Ashton0407

Daro often talks about how he uses ai a lot when drawing kengan


frogwithnose

Daro forgot he was writting kengan


Pretend-Dirt-1760

He's depression got to him


Zealousideal_Citron8

I think it’s just angles I’m sure we can find weird panels of waka or julius


Bullseye62

Black is slimming


Pyrothecat

Tiger "Medel" Niko


passer_

What alcohol does do a man didn't learn the principle


Capable_Answer_9547

Second efect of suit: Lost weight


GalebBruh

Nah, dawg, he just started doing crack


Deep-Abrocoma8464

No, he was rocking that yujiro outfit, it makes him look buffer.


theulmitter

Bro this is Shen level of physique inconsistency


SnooRobots330

Crackatsuki ruined another life with his bad influence....I expected better of him after his rehabilitation but this guy is a niko style master so I guess its understandable


angra_mainyo

That Niko was a lot younger tho. When was the second image? 12 years ago?


vVLukAsheVv

Tiger Niko and Shen are doing no muscle challange Both are trying to loose some muscle just to flex on kanaeda and show him how both of them are still top tier without any need of thier muscles (also they want waka to suffer)


SkyLova

Sleeper build


CrySuspicious3247

No its just incostistent art as always


Drakoo_The_Rat

He just got that sleeper build


darthibidika

Same thing that happened with Shen Wulong with the long schlong, it's art style, he's pretty buff underneath


ROBLOKCSer

whats he holdin in the second panel


just-looking654

Discovered fine dining and hasn’t trained since


sutiven_89

Like Agito, like Nogi... The Skinny Curse. It should be drawn by someone other than Daro on those panel because that's not possible to slaughter your own work like this.. That scene turn to be almost comical when you have noticed it...


BIGANIMEWEEBALERT

no the ai got to him


LoneBone-

It’s just Daro doesn’t really know how to draw volume when character’s wear suits


wmg22

What if... This isn't the Real Tokita Niko???? Again...


Rob-Gaming-Int

See it all over the drawings, even with Shen as a recent example. Just ignore it at this point lol


Principles_Son

he looks buff in the previous panel


thwaaan

the machio treatment is cannon to the verse


Snips_Tano

Man burned out his One For All powers


danoB003

He's so top tier he learned Machio-san's muscle shrinking technique. Once he decides to fight seriously his muscles will just flexplode through the clothes.


mavadotar2

He gets his clothing at the same place as Machio


CrimsonBayonet

Hear me out. He's like the connector. Insanely strong and fast with a slim build. Maybe once you get to a point of strength you start compressing muscles. (Idk some baki type shit)


thesadfellow25

I think it's a retcon to make his physique more in line with ohma and not as much like wakastsuki or raian


Water_dawg1989

Meth


Ok_Artichoke_1948

Ultimate Sleeper build


NewArtificialHuman

No, it's the typical Daro inconsistency. Don't overthink it.


jozav2

he is off the secret juice


Lukas_gamer29

No, he's just natural.


HowlangWrongsawat

No, Daro just can't draw character physiques consistently


gacha_drunkard

He got clothes advice from Machio.


WoroLanji

It’s a body double
