General & Others Who’s Egghead Island Arc’s MVP?
- Thread starter pg13
- Start date
MVP is reliant on comparison to others in that category
so while you can talk about failing to protect vegapunk with two top tiers hovering about
its also quite clear none of the strawhats have done anything relevant enough to be in the conversation bar perhaps sanji
kizaru's biggest contribution was making luffy use gear 5, he has done zero significant damage to luffy in this form . His mission to get rid of vegapunk, bonney, kuma, has been a complete failure. saturn stepped in and it seems they were finally able to do vegapunk in but thats least expected.
all things considered I look at the fact you have an admiral and an enraged gorosei here and neither have been able to get rid of one of their main targets till this chapter . for the most part if you ask why they haven't been able to , its been luffy. looking at the ending of the most current chapter , its about to get even more embarrassing for them .
any argument trying to paint luffy's performance here as pathetic really makes me question what standards he is being upheld to here in comparison to others because those standards would look even more grim on the the admiral and gorosei who are supposedly on the same table as the yonko.

I'd say your standards are very low for Luffy then.
Luffy has just come off beating Kaidou, if you replace Luffy with Kaidou and give him Luffy's performance in this arc you might be able to see what I mean.
Heck let's just do a role reversal here and say Kizaru has been spamming his awakening the entire arc, and his mission is to protect Vegapunk, but he gets swatted away by the Yonkou when he's not awakened and then can only fight on par with the Yonkou who isn't even prioritizing him for an odd few minutes before gassing out and needing food to come back into the picture. I would honestly be calling Kizaru an embarrassment to top tiers, arguably Big Mom levels of embarrassing.
The only reason I'm not quite going there for Luffy is because I believe he will magically turn it up near the end of the arc, but that doesn't make him the MVP when he is underperforming so far. I wouldn't say Sanji has underperformed honestly.
I guess in a vacuum you can say Luffy is the MVP, but given top tier standards and expectations I can't in good faith call him the MVP.
