Idk if this thread will be taken down but yh. Ill be talking about one of the reasons why I dropped OP. And this is due to the amount of p*do content within it.
I dropped OP the moment I saw 10 year old Hancock turn men into stone, however now since she apparently also turned Usopp (a literal MC) into stone. Lets talk about everything sus in OP.
- 31 year old Hancock chasing 17 year old Luffy. And some scenes of him touching her innappropriately
- 8 year old Momo taking baths with grown women. It doesnt also help that the subtext is that hes a 28 year old trapped in a kids body. So theres some kinda fantasy shit going on. Especially seen when the other men in the series are jealous of him.
- Carrot being drawn innapropriately
- Filler Sanji fantaszing about Nami's puberty
- 10 year old Hancock turning grown men into stone. We know how the Love Love Fruit operates. We know that it wont work on people who dont find you attractive....case in point it didnt work on Luffy. So yes Usopp and other grown men find kid Hancock attractive. If this was Sanji people would be talking about it alot....but since its Usopp nobody cares as much. We should, its very very creepy.
----
All in all OP is very creepy and sus when it comes to this department. And it doesnt help that Oda used to be the manga assistant to Rounni Kenshin's author....who was a P*do. So yh the fact that I barely see anyone in this fandom talk about this is strange.
I'm just going to go point by point.
1. 10-year-old Hancock turning people into stone
-Boa's powers are not lust based. She was able to turn Amazons who did not view her sexually into stone. The heart eyes are... uh... problematic, though.
2. Hancock and Luffy
-The coming of age in One Piece is 16, as shown by Pudding's (sham of a) wedding, and Vivi's coming of age ceremony that was delayed until she retook the throne of Alabasta.
No one bats an eye at Luffy drinking alcohol, and Luffy was clearly capable of living his own life by the time he left Foosha Village. Treating Pre-Time-Skip Luffy like a child or Boa like a predator is acting like the modern world is comparable to a fictional universe where a 139 year old lady is a top-tier axe-thrower and one woman extended her own pregnancy double it's normal length to protect her child from a manhunt.
Koby joined the Marines at 16, once again proving the coming of age/age of adulthood in the One Piece universe is the age of 16.
If 16 years olds in the One Piece universe can join the military, I'm assuming the age of consent is also around there. Through all of Whole Cake, Pudding's age was never called into question by anyone, even the Straw Hats/Jinbe, implying getting married upon reaching the coming of age at 16 is normal.
3. Momo bathing with adults
-Oh nooooooooooo the kid whose parents died got to see titties in the bath, fucking hell, grow up. 21st century and we still justify loser adults who can't see kids naked without acting up ruining casual nudity for everyone who isn't a shithead. Black bushmen in Africa are the last men with enough respect to walk around half-naked women without pulling crap, unlike Epstein's forefathers like Thomas Jefferson who owned a 14-year-old black sex slave
Fools like you are why shitheads raised me to believe that titties are dangerous
4. Carrot being drawn innapropriately
-Uh, when? Because she has boobs? Did you know, that mangaka draw boobs on teenage girls, because teenage girls... have boobs? WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. When the hell did Oda lewd Carrot?
5. Film Z Sanji
-You dropped the Manga because of Film Z? The fuck?
6. Boa's Fruit
-Ugh. Wrong. "If the Love-Love Fruit was capable of petrifying inanimate objects, then that means its powers never needed the target to be attracted to the user, and with volume #106βs SBS, that idea is finally confirmed."

If you want to drop One Piece over Oda's connections to his former pedo-sensei, I can understand that, because that's a serious issue with Japan and the world, and I don't think Oda did enough to denounce it, AT ALL.
One Piece has problematic sexualization of mature teenage (15-16 range) and adult female characters, Oda does not sexualize children, stop it.
