Talk:Mist Breathing/@comment-44608352-20191207153551/@comment-45345734-20200430015110

I don't personally think that Kokushibo's remark proves anything about mist existing previous to Muichiro, as you can see Akaza comment on Rengoku fighting with flames and that none of the previous hashira's he'd fought had utilized flame. I'm guessing that the elements used in attacks are visible, and that Kokushibo simply saw Muichiro's attacks take the form of mist. It's not a long shot, after all you can see the attack's special effects in the manga, and how else would they come up with names for breath styles? I do agree with Eternal however, after all, Inosuke was able to develope his own, and Muichiro was shown to be incredibly skilled anyways. Besides, as Eternal mentioned previously, he probably didn't just create it from scratch, he had the breath of wind to base it on.
