This thread is toxic as hell. I think there's toxicity on both sides, but it stems from an overreaction especially here where people deny Sanji of everything, leading to his fans applying those stringent things to Zoro as well.
Sanji feats in anime are non-canon, while Zoro's are proof of his epicness and foreshadowing.
Sanji being called strong is a "gag", while Zoro's are 100% proof.
Zoro being called number 2 by some dude who just saw him one time is 100% proof, while Black Maria is completely wrong and we know this.
Sanji's Vivre Card saying he's a high class fighter who is like the adviser to the crew is ignored, while Zoro has been promoted to Vice Captain who is second to Luffy.
And then some have audacity, the gall, to come and whinge about Sanji fans before breathlessly rushing to type "Why Sanji can't defeat Mr.1, a thread".
Someone in this thread will argue with their full chest that Black Maria isn't impressed by Sanji's strength, the woman whose crew called him a "Big Shot", and called him "Strong" personally, in a chapter where her looking down on his attitude is the wrong thing to do.
Jinbei and Luffy explicitly saying they believe Sanji has better CoO than them and hyping his abilities.
Another person will argue that Bege doesn't think Sanji's strong
Or that people have no reason to compare Zoro and Sanji and think of them together
Request: Oda, draw Zoro and Sanji fighting
Oda: Draws Zoro and Sanji fight to a draw
Queen: Number 2s and 3s -
And more to the fucking point, why do Sanji fans have to "defend Sanji" again even after this?
There is no good-faith argument to be had, it's just people entrenched in toxicity and misery who will never change their opinions no matter what, and the useless, stupid, lazy mods happy to watch the flames rage out of control for "engagement". As proof, none of the people who said Sanji won; fight Queen have changed their opinion one millimetre, even though it was clear that Sanji was always going to be able to fight Queen and that Sanji has the AP to take on Queen and has had it since Whole Cake Island.
The effect of a single Sanji kick vs a Katakuri Spam attack. If it was the other way round, who's "AP" would be praised here?
There is no need to put down Zoro regardless, and there's no need for the people here to act as if they are the characters. It is not just absurd, it is obscene. Refusal to discuss, refusal to change one's mind to new evidence, refusal to even consider new evidence and just insult and batter and badger your fellow "fan" as if he is your mortal enemy. Are you guys not even embarrassed? Do you think if Zoro was real he would enjoy your company? Is this the spirit of One Piece?
How are you reading this manga and acting like a collectives of Flampes. Black Maria, and Trebols?
