Yeah I got a vague feeling he was but my brain keeps focusing on how much Oda made him a "good guy" later on, like trying to forget/overwrite the bad shit he did? I remember hating him when he fought Sanji but Oda gradually made him a much better person and redeemed him?
Shit man, I forgot so much about this arc, Ill have to re-read it or something, as going through the anime again would be kinda murder/torture potentially. Although god knows I LOVE the finale of Luffy vs Croc in the anime, that was GOD tier!
Its crazy how much Oda changed Bon Clay from what you're saying but wasn't Robin pretty psycopathic too as Ms All Sunday? Fitting given her backstory and working for Crocodile and an organisation like that too but still? Oda even tried to humanise and redeem the likes of Crocodile and Moria, also Kidd more recently, so I wonder if he's gonna do the same for the likes of Doflamingo and Akainu later on for example? Hell, even Kaido at least had 1 moment of deceny/honour when he apologised to Oden for their fight being ruined too.
I need to look this up, I've forgotten so much, damn.
