Bro, when you said One Piece specificially avoids parallels, I actually asceneded to another plane of existence.
DO YOU KNOW WHO SABO EVEN IS???
HOOOOOOOOOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
ODA LITERALLY CLONED ACE AND SHOVED HIM INTO A BACKSTORY PRE TIME SKIP AFTER ACE DIED TO HAVE A POST TIME SKIP ACE, FOR FUCK'S SAKE. AND I LIKE SABO! This series has so many damn parallels you can't keep track of them.
Yes, all of Luffy's former allies showing up to help him reach Laugh Tale would be compelling, why do you think people like movies like the Avengers, and especially End Game? One of the most popular scenes from one of the most popular OF ALL TIME is a bunch of allies to the main characters showing up to fight the bad guy.
And, if you hate it, that's fine!
Like I said, I only want the first 16 people on my list to join.
How are you this triggered over me saying something I don't even want might happen? OI.
