What do you think is Oda opinion on the Okama from the way he choose to write them?

Does it matter? We're here for his work, not Oda himself.

It doesn't. 🧐🐟

Oda's has a liberal opinion on it. He depicts most Okama's as allies to Luffy and despite how ridiculous they may look they tend to be strong. Them being a giant stereotype is just for the laughs

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

Oda viewed them differently than the Western side. Okama are basically queers and transgenders, Oda doesn't have any negative opinions towards them.

All the named okama and newkama have all been very well written and genuinely solid characters despite the over the top designs.

Bon Clay is one of the most beloved characters in the manga

Ivas plot relevance as the left hand of Dragon and one of the top members of the revolutionary army is only growing

Inazuma didn’t have much screen time but even they were a really cool character.

They’re over the top caricatures on average, but then again One piece is full of that so it’s just fitting Odas style

Bonclay is legit in the top 10 of Oda's best characters and Ivankov's silly design doesn't stop the fact he was a determined beast and worth plenty of respect for his own self sacrifices.

Those are one of Okama. Oda chose to represent Drag Queen. Guess what? They exist. We also have Kiku and whatever the fuck Yamato is(still a woman though).

 

[Finalbeta]

I'm fairly confident he would share a very good opinion of them. Just looking at how legendary and prominent they look in the series, I refuse to believe he would not love his creations.

Seriously? I don't think you've noticed but One Piece is a very, I hesitate to say, SJW manga.

Sooo basic ideas of tolerance and equality are SJW?

Yes? Nothing is wrong with being a social justice warrior. It's a good thing. (Yes, I know there are bad aspects that happen here and there, but just because you eat a bad meal doesn't mean you starve forever)

If you want to know Oda's view, switch on that mindset rather than asking rhetorical questions.

Yea man i hate to break it to you but basics idea of liberty and equality aren't SJW

They are basic human rights, nothing SJW about it lol

They are when people don't see them as "basic". Hate to break it you, but you're an SJW

Because those people are cunts, simple as that lol fuck em
Believing in Equality and Justice isn't SJW, it is just Human. No need to label everything

Gotta love people trying to force their ideals on you. That is indeed very SJW of you. And its not a good thing at all.

Okama as a fictional concept: sure, it reflects the writer, but it's also within a very specific context. Kiku is trans and nothing like them.

In any case, Oda is from a culture different from my own so the jokes he makes may not be the jokes I make and his original audience may also see them differently. And in the big picture it's not like he's got ill intentions with his depictions. So whatever.

but the comments I see online... yes we're talking about fiction but some of the views are still pretty awkward. "If ___ has ___ genitals they're ___." That sort of thing and some of the descriptive words used, it sounds like some of the posters don't get out much. Like they work in the part of the buildings where visitors don't go, lol.

Social Justice warriors tend to hold extreme views which is why it is used in a derogative term
