For the most part, Zoan's offer an increase in physical abilities. They're best suited for characters who rely on brute strength like Jack, or other methods of physical combat like CP9's members.

IMO, with everyone who matters packing Haki at this point, Logia's are the least impressive or usefull, since their only real advantage is gone.

Not quite true, for an example you should think about Whitebeard vs Aokiji, Whitebeard stabbed him with Haki, but because of his Logia ability he didn't get wounded

This has been said in the series. The Zoans that have been impressive in their time in the story have been so because they were exceptionally strong fighters who just let their Zoans do what they're supposed to do: Enhance their physical capabilities. Zoans are not flashy, and they've never been supposed to be.

yeah I guess but if I was to speculate I think jack is awakened and is gonna be represented as one of the four horsemen more specific famine. and kaido is gonna def be awakened and probably a mythical zoan type.

Whoa, you might be onto something with the Four Horseman thing. What if each of Kaido's men represents one of the four, with Jack being the "Drought" fulfilling the "Famine" horseman. The others would be War and Pestilence and Kaido himself is Death.

thank you for being open minded. I think death will be don q and kaido will be war. think about don q he's even seen with the grim reaper staff. im thinkin there will be a showdown between good and evil at the end and the four horsemen will be involved, but you could be right as well.

I'm not saying the characters aren't impressive though there is nothing impressive about jack. Marco's fruit was quite impressive, so was Sengoku's and Lucci aswell. But I'm more impressed by the characters using the ability than the ability itself. Their fruits aren't nearly as fascinating as Paramecia and Logia.

Which is a point the series has made before. You're not saying anything new or anything no one else was already thinking since all three types of DFs were introduced.

Give me a link that said Zoan DF's are meant to suck compared to Paramecia and Logia.

Zoan type greatly increases your physical abilities (strength, endurance, ...) and gives you, depending on the model, a few other interesting abilities. In the case you have your Zoan ability awakened like the four beasts in Impel Down, you are said to possess an abnormal level of strength and advanced regeneration. Combine this with your own fighting skills and Haki and you got a powerful opponent.

Plus, there are different kinds of Devil Fruits. Marco can turn himself into a flying pheonix with a Logia's intangibility and regenerative abilities. A great support to own fighting skills and Haki. Or Sengoku, which can turn into a huge Buddha with such a physical strength that he can even damage Ruffy when he's using Gear 3 Balloon and can use large scale shockwaves.

And Kaido himself most likely also has a Zoan, probably Dragon type as his appearance suggests. And he is labelled as the strongest existing entity.

Post more here :p. Though no Marco doesn't have concrete logia intangibility. It's just that he can instantly regenerate while in phoenix form making it appear as if he was ignoring attacks
