When you are outside and you see a man who looks drunk or high you don't try to argue with him, you ignore him
That's what every fandom does with people who thinks Zoro=Luffy
Outside??
Literally ever casual fan I know thinks Zoro is comparable to Luffy.
Look at YouTube comments on famous casual YouTubers with like 2 million subscribers or even casual one piece sites like comic vine.
Hard-core echo chambers like reddit and King of Lightnings fanbase doesn't represent "real life" fan base lmao.
I am not sure if you have any friends irl and not sure if they exist if they watch One Piece but just ask around.
I mean how fucking obvious can it get when data books written by author or at worst editors think Zoro = Luffy.
What you are basically saying is that Author himself or at worst editors of the canon itself know manga worse than you do.
It is bizarre literally
