Overview

First shown at the live-stage One Piece Premier Show 2025, this Paramecia falls outside the main canon. It grants its user the power to turn back time in their vicinity, which earns the title Reverse Human. The one who ate it is Snitcher, a Marine. Its name comes from ribasu, the Japanese rendering of the English word reverse, and the stage show remains the sole place the power has surfaced.

Mechanics

Two things fall under the fruit's control: how other people move, and the way energy and physical force travel. Snitcher can point the effect at one chosen target or spread it over everyone eligible in an area. When a person's motion gets flipped, they end up dizzy and disoriented for a handful of seconds; when energy gets flipped, an incoming strike is effectively bounced back onto whoever threw it, leaving him almost impossible to land a hit on in a solo duel. There is a catch. He has to trigger each reversal by hand, since it will not run on its own, so he can only turn aside blows he manages to react to, and a split second of distraction leaves him wide open. Aside from that gap, only the ordinary Devil Fruit weaknesses are documented. His signature move, plainly titled Reverse, has him trace a circle with his arm to flip time on a target, marked by a lasting flash of purple, green, or blue light.

Notable Users

Snitcher stands as the only eater, putting the fruit to work chiefly for fighting and taking prisoners. He turns enemy attacks back on their source to stay nearly untouchable, and he leans on movement reversal to leave targets too disoriented to fight back, which lets even his weaker underlings drag them in. Within the series it counts as just the second Devil Fruit tied to time manipulation, coming after the Toki Toki no Mi once held by Kozuki Toki, and it is the first such fruit outside the canon.
