Worst Character: Timeskip Chopper
Ugliest Character: Kung Fu Point Chopper
Wasted Potential: Post-Ennies Lobby Chopper
The Rant:
I miss when Chopper wasn’t some overly cute plush looking teddy bear who’s head is too big for his body, and he actually had a nose/snout. Not to mention he actually wore THE hat and not some stupid beanie.
I miss when Chopper was a timid child at first but Zoro (and Sanji) were slowly shaping him up to be a real man who isn’t just some fuzzy push over, like when he was taken in the Davy Back Fight and started crying but they both shut him up and told him to man up.
I miss when Chopper was actually a real powerhouse who was lowkey the unsaid fourth member of the Monster Trio who could surpass Sanji if he applied himself (Heh I used to wank this idea to the moon). I miss when Chopper wasn’t a complete punk bitch and could fight alongside the Monster Trio and wreck shit like in the Franky’s House moment.
LOOK AT THIS BADASS MOFO. HE WENT FROM ACTUALLY FIGHTING SHIT TO BEING A COWARD. Originally he was wrongly placed in the Weakling Trio due to his own passive nature but he overcame it only for Oda to regress it for cute merch.
Then finally... Remember when Chopper actually looked more real? And when his points actually looked intimidating? OR WHEN HE EVEN USED HIS POINTS???
He used to scan his opponents for weaknesses with Brain Point and do doctor activities with it but now its been repurposed to the Useless Point that he’s always in. No more switching through a variety of points with different attributes to fit the situation like Jump Point which allowed him to scale buildings in a single bound, then Arm Point for unrivaled striking, or Horn Point to actually be able to stab mofos. Now we have this 24/7:
And what was the point of redesigning his OG cool points into goofy stupid shit like this:
The audacity.
Chopper always saying he is willing to be a monster for Luffy but bitch where is the monster? You don’t look scary AT ALL. Make it make sense. All his OG forms looked unnatural and beastly even when he was just chillin in Strong Point
Don’t even get me started with whats now called Monster Point and the fact that toddlers were making him bleed
Once upon a time Chopper was my favorite character besides Luffy so the butchering of his entire being really cut deep.
