Chapter Discussion The monster trio is over. Don’t ever mention Sanji in the same sentence as Zoro. Until he gets the feats to back it up.

Yall are ridiculous. Yall don't remember oars fucking sanji up? Sanji was literally knocked out and put on his back

The next chapter. Sanji proceeds to get up and say "fuck saving nami." He then started blasting on oars. Literally performs better than the rest of the crew

Sanjis not done. It's one chapter. Oars was undoubtedly stronger than sanji and produced the same result. But that didn't stop sanji from putting in work the next chapter.

Let's wait a chapter or two and see before we condemn him. I am the biggest sanji fan there is. I urge you guys to not despair. This is normal buisness.

Look at vs pearl and then Gin...

Look at kuroobi...

The davvy back fight?

What about khalifa?

Oars... etc.

Sanji always comes back beating ass.

Let's be logical tho. How can Saturn ever look strong if sanji came out beating ass? Saturn has to be hyped first in order to showcase his strength.

Look at zoro vs kuma. Kuma had to be hyped first in order to be impressive to the reader. This might be no different.
This is a great response. But Zoro looked strong vs Kuma. That led to Zoros greatest moment. Saturn could have looked strong against somebody else. Why does it always have to be Sanji? How can we consider Sanji strong if he’s constantly used as a hype tool? He loses value in terms of strength that way. Oda should pick on somebody else. Hell use Jinbei. But we can wait to the end of the arc if he does something to redeem himself I’ll make a thread about that too.

Sanji literally got one shotted by the gorosei and couldn’t land a single attack. Now he can’t even move from one attack? This is utterly ridiculous. It’s time to accept the fact that Sanji will never be anything more than a hype tool. Trying to tie him to Zoro at this point is completely disrespectful to Zoro.

Sanji needs some serious redemption after this. I’m sure people will say Appo knocked out Luffy to defend Sanji. That doesn’t matter Luffy went on to defeat Kaido after. People might say Zoro got beat by the Yeti cool brothers, so what he went on to neg diff Monet after without even cutting her.

Sanji has to do something this is so trash. I thought this hype tool shit was over.

Until the feats add up don’t compare Sanji to Zoro fuck the narrative. If Zoro and Sanji are the wings of the Pirate King than Luffy can’t fly because he big wing and a very small one.

I can’t defend this garbage. I can see how you like Sanji as a character and for his fighting style. However, from a powerscaling perspective he is ass.
Would surprise me if this weren't Mr.DonWick :suresure: .

If Sanji ends up doing anything against Saturn (or anyone) you gonna argue Saturn is weak as hell. Now suddenly Sanji got one shotted because he got hit by an attack never seen before
:kobeha::kobeha::kobeha:

Base Sanji got hit by a Gorosei and bleed a little, then stopped from moving from a unknown ability. Thats the insane hypetool here? Apoo must be some kind of god then

If we are being honest here, Luffy was done way worse by Lucci by needing to use Gear 5, and 1000x worse against Kizaru, since he needed to be saved after a few minutes of battle, where nothing relevant happened, and Kizaru is still awaken.

Meawhile Zoro is fighting that same Lucci for several chapters at this point, seemingly using one of his strongest fighting modes. How isn't all of that considered a hypetool by your standards? One thing leads to another
:quest:

This can't even be considered a bare minimum hypetool because Sanji literally didn't put any effort into it. He put way more effort against the Seraphim to protect Nami than he did now, not even comparable

Some people here need to rethink the actual meaning of hypetool, Sanji isn't the only character involved here.

And we just started a flashback, this whole fighting sequence only begin in this chapter, way too soon to take any conclusions, specially these kind of conclusions you just took now

Y’all reacting way too quickly arc ain’t even done lmao or did you act the same way when luffy got two shot and knocked out by Apoo?
:myman:
I didn’t care about Appo vs Luffy at all because I knew Luffy would show out that arc. The problem is that Sanji has more bad showings than good when it comes to strength. Everytime he meets someone remotely strong he has to get his ass beat. You know it’s true.

And you’re just wrong there. Sanji has much more good showings, the problem is y’all rather than give Sanji the hype he earns downplays his opponent.

You do it with Queen Germa and Page One all the time

I recommend at least waiting till the flashback is over to see what sanji does.

I don't think odas gonna have sanji looking terrible all arc. He just needs to establish the sh as the underdogs and hype the gorosei. Everyone's been questioning power levels this entire arc and Odas been shitting on expectations.

Idk. I don't see one chapter as being indicative of anything concrete unless it's something specifically stated in the chapter. Sanji has a history of coming back with some work.

I do agree tho. But if he used jimbei people would lose faith in him even faster than sanji. He's not gonna get the feats sanji gets going forward. His reputation can't be somewhat redeemed after being shitted on.

Odas kinda stale with his methods but at least they work. Kinda. Lmao. We all miss the pre ts dynamics but oda seems to be relying heavily on that prior portrayal. I hope we see a turnaround and I'm pretty sure we will. Eggheads been pretty good so far. Almost like the pre ts. Let's see how it plays out.
Post automatically merged:

because nika will destroy the govermant (gorosei and imu) not their soldiers or do you not understand the flasback:gokulaugh::gokulaugh::gokulaugh:
That doesn't make sense. He can barely handle kizaru. How will he handle kizaru and Saturn together?

I don’t even talk about Page One or Germa. He didn’t defeat Page One, he didn’t have a real fight with Germa, if I count anything from Germa he lost against Judge and Niji. They had to save him because he was too slow and they told him that.

The only one I bash is Queen. Sanji has good character showings but from a strength perspective he has more bad showings.

At this point I actually hope he gets to defeat one of the viceadmirals before they run away from Egghead.
pretty much this, it clear where this arc is going nika nika need to safe bonney from the evil saturn all the rest is caboki theathers
I still hope for Kizaru, that Zoro will clash with him cuz that so call fight with Luffy was so underwhelming..was trash
