Current Events Why are we ignoring that Sanji is only the 7th or 8th most relevant protagonist in Onigashima?

What do you mean? Sanji is right next to Zoro as one of the Pirate King's Wings. Hell, the editors note at the beginning of last chapter literally says "standing shoulder to shoulder"

This duo is taking on the All-Stars together. The crowd reactions imply that Zoro and Sanji are on equal footing when it comes to stardom and importance. Marco, Hyogoro, King, Queen, dozens of other characters!

Hyogoro and Marco said it best: these are the STARS of the show. Don't interfere with their challenge, everyone else would only get in the way :myman:



The Wings of the Pirate King. I don't know about you, but they both seem equally important in this fight. It's not like Oda has done anything to separate them, ya know :myman:

As a matter of fact, he's only been grouping them together since 1010 :myman:

Both fighting together, getting their background infodumps at the same time. But I thought Oda was done with the Zoro/Sanji dynamic and it was just for gags :josad:

Rayleigh >> Gaban
Gaban is so irrelevant Oda prolly just gave him 3 panels LOL :milaugh:

I don't know, based on what little we've seen of him, he hasn't gotten the level of portrayal that Sanji has in his crew. People just want to force parallels between characters when it isn't there. If anything, Sanji and Zoro both represent parts of Rayleigh. When Sanji ends up unlocking CoC this will be even more true :kata:

Don't be surprised if Big News Morgan releases an article after Wano that places Sanji and Zoro on similar footing btw

Characters with more relevant roles than Sanji in the arc so far

-Luffy (needless to explain why)

-Zoro (fought 2 Yonko and is fighting a stronger commander)

-Kid/Law (fought 2 Yonko and are now fighting Big Mom)

-Momo (leader of the Samurais, now will face Kaido as a dragon)

-Yamato (currently fighting Kaido)

The only one debatable is Killer since Killer fought 2 Yonko which is great but is now fighting Hawkins who's below Queen.

At best Sanji is the 7th most relevant character on the alliance side in term of accomplishments so far.

So why exactly are his fans so convinced he's taking a massive W?

By the time Sabo,Dragon,Garp,Kuzan,Shanks,Beckmann and so on enter the story, he'll completely drop out of the top 10
Not that I disagree, but you kinda forgot that Daddy's Suit and King's DNA will make Cook relevant again. :kobeha:

1. With the number of characters here, being top ten is actually really good

2. He's under Kinemon. Kinemon is the hero of Wano, this whole thing has only been possible because of him... even to a level he didn't intend. Same way I can admit that Kyros was more important than Zoro back in Dressrosa.

Luffy and Momo on Top 1
Basically if one of them is definitely defeated the war is over.
Samourai are fighting to make Momo Shogun but without Luffy (their only Hope) defeating Kaido it's impossible.

Kinemon who prepared that raid and saved Momo and made most of Samurai join their side

Kid and Law if they manage to beat BM

Sanji and Zoro both made good things
Save Momo/Protect Luffy) and will defeat a calamity

Sanji's taking on the Beast Pirates' third strongest alongside Zoro taking on the second strongest. He saved Momo, the leader of the alliance, not too long ago while the top two Calamities were present. I don't see the point in listing people arguably more relevant than him when he's just fine right now. Plenty of arcs have significant characters aside from the Straw Hats, Sanji's doing just fine right now.

Everyone on Onigashima heard him ask Robin for help, plus Robin and Black Maria's opinions on Sanji were an important part of her fight and now everyone in the Live Floor knows how capable Sanji is (since he's against an All-Star), to the extent Hyogoro says anyone getting involved in Zoro and Sanji's fights is just a hindrance. He's pretty relevant at the moment.

Sanji's relevancy is just fine, not sure if anyone's ignoring anything, some people just don't see the need to go on about how many and which characters are more relevant than Sanji. It's not always a competition and more about whether Sanji's current treatment is sufficient to them which it is to me, personally, so I don't mind.
