Y'all remember when Kaido knocked Luffy off Onigashima the first time and Carrot fans said she was the only one around who could save Luffy from falling into the ocean? How Perospero telling her to eat grass was Oda subverting our expectations to put Carrot in the perfect place to make SH move and save the MC? Then we found out she was laying exactly where Perospero left her several chapters later because Cat Viper came to finish her one job? She didn't do a damn thing.

You know who did get that shining moment of stepping up to bat when the MC was out of commission? Yamato. Big bold statement of sailing with Luffy after Wano too, this time knowing Momo is still alive but choosing Luffy instead.

Now again we had Carrot fans saying she just needs to see Luffy in G5 and she's in. Just a glimpse and she'll realize Pedro's words in a eureka moment of dawn euphoria where she will realize her destiny of sailing with Luffy and figuring out whatever the hell her dream actually is. Except we do not have a single panel of her anywhere. She's in the perfect place on the live floor with other people getting reaction shots, but she gets nothing. She's just off galivanting with Cat Viper somewhere.

You know who did get to see Luffy in G5 and realize he's Joyboy? Yamato. Oda made Yamato THE reactionary face to Luffy's new form, even more than Momo. Always bossing Momo around to help Luffy, not to save Wano.

They keep moving the goalposts over and over again while giving Carrot bigger and bigger handicaps, and Yamato's still scoring 3-pointers almost every chapter while Carrot just whiffs every shot. If they just applied their own logic to the story without their confirmation bias, they'd be cheering Yamato too. Someone's checking all their boxes, it's just not the one they want so they're all pissy about it or looking like conspiracy nuts by telling us we're reading it wrong.

And the "sneaking on board" argument doesn't work. Cat Viper and Dog Storm only snuck onboard because they were loyal vassals of Oden and followed him. Carrot doesn't know who TF Yamato is and no reason to follow. If she sneaks onboard because of the others, then it's not an Oden parallel, so you can't use Cat Viper as evidence.
 
When? When u want Oda to develop yet another character that has barely been shown for over a year while he has been steadily giving Yamato screen time, interactions and backstory?
Oda only needs a few pages to develop a character.
People got to stop using this, its a big cop out.
No it's a fact. To think that Oda would just give in the future of his storylines is naive at best.


Oda even draws fodder minks but he doesn’t draw Carrot. Oda is cruel.
Or is he... :myman:


And C4N will still come up with some kind of mental gymnastic excuse.
No, I will wait until the next chapter to have a confirmation but if Carrot don't have a reaction or a special moment soon, her chances will dropped from 99 to 70% for me. (I'll still be convinced tho)


He’s gonna move the goal post and say that “carrot just gonna sneak board on the Sunny when nobody’s looking.” which is a stupid idea if you ask me. “She will have a flashback witnessing Luffy’s gear fifth”.
Only those who are really ignorant about my argumentation would say that. Carrot sneaking on the Sunny as always been my end goal and you know it.


That is the beauty of the "sneaking on board" argument. You can always just keep pushing it every chapter, and if it doesn't happen, you can just keep saying Oda is waiting for the right opportunity.
For good reasons ;)


They keep moving the goalposts over and over again
Wrong.

There has always be multiple instance where Carrot could be confirmed.. We are just scratching one of them right now ;)

It's really fallacious as it let people think that those where not possibilities. The thing is.. They were. I've always told you that those might not happen letting place for the next one.

You are really being disingenuous here.

Of course it works, it in direct link with the characterization of Carrot.. read the story
