Just as the title says, do you think Monkey D. Luffy is a top 5 manga(Shonen/Seinen/etc included) MC/Protagonist? Compare him to his contemporaries, predecessors, successors, etc. Shonen/seinen, everything is welcomed.
Luffy is basically an idealised figure. This means that is a character one is supposed to look up to and take inspiration from rather than relate with. Personally, I often appreciate this kind of characters as I find them inspirational.
The problem with Luffy in my opinion, is that the vision of the world he embodies at times is really childish and superficial. And this applies to a lot of other characters in One Piece.
For a teenager this might be awesome, but for an adult that engages with a story somewhat criticallyโฆ not so much.

this might not be a fair question as most people tend to not like characters that are far younger than them in real life and even if luffy is 19 he behaves like a 15-year-old so most people in their 20s or late teens tend to mostly like seinen protagonist.
with the way most manga are boring and with one piece being long and luffy getting a lot of focus and characterization I can say yes he should be top 5
No.Luffy is the typical dumb/happy/go/lucky protagonist.Nothing especial about him,actually he seems to not mature quickly,which i find annoying at times.
