Awa Awa no Mi retooled?

So, I had an idea for a Bubble-themed Paramecia (turns the person into a Bubble Human so they're really light--float on water and blow away in strong winds--and can release/manipulate bubbles, up to controlling the gas each bubble contains as long as there's a nearby source of that gas)...

...but it turns out the Awa Awa no Mi already exists in canon, and was eaten by Kalifa, AND has some rather different properties. So the question is, can we make DFs that have already been named in canon as long as the properties are different, or do I need to name it something else like Pop Pop no Mi?

(And also I'd like to know, if this idea is workable, what level would it be?)

So you're wanting to combine the Kilo Kilo with the Awa Awa...

Interesting.

No, sorry. Just want to answer before the evil mods do. <3

Not quite! It doesn't make the user able to control their weight--essentially they're a human-sized bubble (with a flesh covering so they don't pop every time they shave), which makes them permanently lightweight.

Then Tommy tries to think up a plan to defeat this guy and after a few seconds, thought of the perfect plan to knock him out which was to punch him in the back of the head. He then out maneuvers him by side stepping to the back of him and punches him right on the back of his head perfectly which then knocks him out for the rest of the bar brawl. "That took care of him, now who next?"

It still overlaps with a lot of fruits. So unless you make a different theme all-together for the power it won't work most likely.

Powers can overlap as long as the theme is sufficiently different. For example the Bane (spring fruit) and Gomu (rubber duh). Both allow one to stretch their limbs and such but a spring is sufficiently different from rubber to stand on it's own.

No. If a fruit's theme which in this case was bubbles ever overlaps with another it will never pass.

I'm actually not quite sure where the overlap comes in--the fruit I had in mind has basically the following characteristics:
1. makes the user light as a bubble
2. allows them to generate/manipulate bubbles
3. also allows them to trap gases in the bubbles.

What dark said. It may have different abilities, but the concept is still bubbles, and a simple name change wont solve it. Sorry.

Sorry to interject, but isn't the concept of the canon Awa Awa more about cleaning and soap than it is bubbles?

I think panth is going for a different concept entirely, since the only thing Awa Awa had to do with bubbles was aesthetic.

Right, so suppose it was Balloon Balloon Fruit, and it made the user light as a balloon and let them create balloons and catch gases in the balloons, would that work then?

Name: Popu Popu no Mi
Type: Paramecia
Description: The Popu Popu no Mi is a Paramecia-classed Devil Fruit which turns it's user into a Balloon-man. It allow it's user to inflate and deflate their own bodies, shrinking them, making them taller, skinnier, fatter. The weakness to this fruit is sharp objects; if they're slashed or stabbed, they'll deflate to their original size.

The creation ability you're trying doesn't really work.

Isn't that organic, and generating abilities are hard to pass.
