* {{Pheromones}}: Daken can produce these to [[LivingAphrodisiac make people fall in love with him]], regardless of their gender. He can also manipulate people in more subtle ways, it's just that seduction is his favorite way of getting what he wants.

** For all his antagonism towards Logan, he really ''did'' love his father in his way, and at times even expressed regret that he never truly got to be a part of his family. He even went out of his way to recover what effects of Logan's he could from an AuctionOfEvil so he could give him a proper Japanese funeral.

* PracticallyDifferentGenerations: Daken was born just after World War II, making him no younger than his 70s. His sister, Comicbook/{{X 23}}, is 20 years old as of ''Comicbook/AllNewWolverine''. Gabby is even ''younger'', having the body and mind of a 13 year-old girl, but was [[YoungerThanTheyLook rapid-aged in the tube]].

Added DiffLines:

* BadWithTheBone: Daken has three retractable bone claws housed underneath his forearms, two claws which emerge from between the skin of his first and third knuckles and one from his inner wrist. These claws are much harder and denser than normal human bone and their natural shape provides them with a razor sharp edge capable of easily slicing through flesh and bone, and they have been shown to be able to penetrate metals as durable as ComicBook/IronMan's armor.

Added DiffLines:

* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Zig-zagged. Daken's SmellsSexy pheromones are just as effective on males as on females, a fact that he ruthlessly exploits as a tool for manipulating people. Even ones who would otherwise find him personally repulsive due to his personality. Also, his attractiveness is nowhere near so effective against those who are not affected by his pheromones. For example, ComicBook/{{Hulkling}} of the ''Comicbook/YoungAvengers'' is unaffected, and can even tell that Daken is trying to manipulate him with his pheromones, because Hulkling is a NonHumanHumanoidHybrid with absolutely no human ancestry.

** However he does demonstrate genuine affection for X-23, who is one of the few people he treats as an equal. When he later comes to help out with ThePlague ravaging Roosevelt Island in ''All-New Wolverine'', he admits he doesn't give a damn about the island, and is only there for her.

''Akihiro'', more commonly known as ''Daken'', is the son of ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} and his deceased wife Itsu. Blessed with his dad's {{Wolverine Claws}} (although with a twist or two there) and {{Healing Factor}}, as well as the added ability to give off pheromones, Daken is a younger, darker and edgier version of his dad, who was the dark and edgy poster child of the 70s-90s. He loves {{Xanatos Gambit}}s, and seducing people just to prove he can, and is smart enough to dupe ComicBook/NormanOsborn and [[ComicBook/FantasticFour Reed Richards]] -- but still gets his ass handed to him by his father. Speaking of dad, Daken has quite a few [[DisappearedDad daddy issues]].

While that may have been the intention of the character's creator Characterization Marches On that is deffinetly NOT how the character has been written in recent years.


* {{Asexual}}: WordOfGod states Daken doesn't actually care for sex, he just uses it as a way to manipulate people. [[ShownTheirWork Which is yet another (lesser known) characteristic of sociopaths]].

* TheSociopath: Almost textbook extreme level case.

to:

* TheSociopath: Almost textbook case and taken to extreme level case.levels at times. In spite of this, Daken is more a high functioning version as he is capable of emotion and can care about others, albeit in a very twisted way. It's less that Daken has no empathy and more that he views compassion and attachment as a weakness. He can care about others but because of his upbringing, cannot express that care properly and only rates people in more practical terms (are they compitent,gifted,useful, obsticle eta.)

** There was one particular incident where he acquired a Bloodstone, which grants a healing factor, that coupled with his own gave him super lupus that caused tumors to sprout from his body. The more damage the greater the tumors, and Frankencastle blowing him up with a grenade caused him to sprout into a giant mass he had to cut himself out of.
