Bartholomew Kuma is an incredible character that fans have come to absolutely adore over the course of the last few months in One Piece. This is a character who was believed to be full of secrets until recently, and it was quite clear from the early days that Oda was saving lots of things about Kuma's past for later. As One Piece started heading closer to the Final Saga, more and more focus was being thrown on Kuma. Finally, he was rescued by the members of the Revolutionary Army and fans knew that it was only a matter of time before the character of Kuma was deconstructed by Oda.
