Overview

Held by Charlotte Galette, this Paramecia fruit produces and manipulates butter, which is why she is titled a Butter Human. The name comes from batā, the Japanese pronunciation of the word butter, and the VIZ release renders her label as Butterwoman.

Mechanics

Galette can call up what appears to be an endless supply of butter and direct it at will. One might expect the substance to make surfaces slippery, yet in its semi-liquid state her butter proves sticky and clinging, able to lock down a foe by coiling around their hands or torso.

Beyond the vulnerabilities common to every Devil Fruit, the power shows no distinctive weaknesses.

Notable Users

Charlotte Galette is the sole wielder. In a fight she leans on the fruit to restrain and pin her enemies, holding them helpless so her allies can deal with them as they wish. The manga never depicts exactly how she manages this, but the anime shows her guiding blobs of butter by telekinesis and winding them around a target's hands and body.
