One Piece Chapter 1040: Falling on Deaf Ears

[MonsterKaido]

Kidd was not very bad but he wasn't great either

Medicare is the word I say

 

[Gorosei Informer]

Poor Kid it was just too obvious that he was never going to be Luffy's rival or equal, it was so previsible even since the end of Dressrosa. I know that the wake up must be harsh for many of his fans.

Tbh, as soon as I saw Kaido drop him on him literally, the real despair for his future begun for me back then.

It fucking sucks that Oda won't give him the overwhelming same love as he has done for Law (almost said Paw lol, Bepo for Kumas fruit?) And now he turns around and says he thought Kidd was gonna be the most important supernova? Is he trolling us? Rubbing it in?

I really loved the idea of Kidd leading the SNs in the past, aside from Luffy and Zoro ofc. Maybe Law too. Kidd recruiting the Tobi Roppo and maybe even a YC too. Things like this to help him truly make massive gains, be a true rival amd thus competitor and equal to Luffy.
But ironically those ideas are better are dying than Odas characters now honestly and ironically.

He is his rival

As much as the Sega Saturn was rival to the first Playstation.

Ya use western standards of rivals. In Japanese work rivals don’t mean 1:1 equals

 

[Fuckthis3]

Even Apoo will give him good fight

Yep that a reason apoo will never scared of him and his right hand call him strong and he wanted him on the team Killer didn't give a fuck to mention Hawkins strength and didnt took it seriously as we saw when they fought

 

[MonsterKaido]

That's a great start to lose credibility even before you make the thread

Apoo too strong

 

[Tai long]

kid and law crew are embarrassing

 

[Buusatan94]

The result is the same, it's a completely one-sided rivalry.
Kid will never be close to Luffy's power, impact, number and power of allies and closeness to the One Piece and Pirate King. He's not even serious competition.

Wait for Viz

It isn't in the raw as far as I can see, it's more like saying she can return the attack in an instant, so it does dehype the attack but not quite to the stage of tickling lol.

Unlike some of the stuff that was in the raw but removed by viz in previous chapters, e.g Luffy barely standing going into the 1vs1 with Kaido.

"erabina!!! /koitsu o ore ga hajikikaeshita shunkan no -o/ oo... omaerano unmei o na...."

[Tai long]

what if yamato just threw all the bombs toward bigmom

 

[Roo]

The result is the same, it's a completely one-sided rivalry.
Kid will never be close to Luffy's power

oh boy powerscalers will be having a lot of fun with luffy fans in the next couple of weeks

 

[Sasparan]

Like Luffy and Laboon

 

[DKI]

The writing level is as bad as ever.

So it was fluff by TCB. Because even in this chapter we see Big Mom get knocked back by damed punk

He only lost credibility if he got one shoted.....oh wait

 

[WesMidnight]

Yeah but viz also arbritarily add or remove dialogue for "better flow" and usually much worse than TCB for powerscaling specific statements, so hoping viz will fix it is risky lol.

 

[Monkey D Al]

I wonder which retard voted this chapter 5 stars

Me, mainly for the reason that it finally ends this fight and the zunesha part at the end.

That is not a good reason.

 

[rerere]

Oh wait ... That was Luffy not Kidd

 

[Sasparan]

That is not a good reason.

Mf rates peoples enjoyment.
