So here is a thing guys, I didn't give much thought about it and even made fun of Critical Mindset because I never looked deeply into it and Vergo going Criss Cross like he's sitting on a chair to flex on Sanji seemed like nothing more than a Meme. But then I discussed this topic further with Critical Mindset on Discord and while I am not sure if this really happened:
And one can look at this panel and trace it like this which is the Loading up movement of the Round House Kick
But there are a few fundamental problems, and let me as who had done fair share of Muay Thai and Tai-Kwon Do Educate you on Fundamental Body Mechanics of a Round-House Kick.
There are few points to notice here, one obvious point, is that you have to pivot the opposite leg
And Based on Positioning of Vergo's Body, that Pivot is entirely missing.
That Pivot would also result in Upper Body Turn as we can see here
Here is a better angle
But that upper body turn is also missing, which is biomechanically impossible, look for it yourself and try to replicate that movement of upper body, you'll have to shatter your pelvis bone to accomplish that lol
So while once again I am not sure about Switch Leg, Vergo's Upper Body is looking a lot more like this than anything
And then there is movement of Foot. The Loading Stage where you Pivot your Body, the foot will be parallel with your shin, like this, and you ready to kick.
But Vergo has his Foot being perpendicular to the shin
He is making an L, setting up blue print for Sanji's Post Time Skip Career.
And A Round House Kick, with Right Foot Plant Should have Vergo's Coat Flailing Back Wards, unless it is made out of Iron lol. But it is curling, which can only happen if Left foot is planted supporting it. If it is Right Foot, Supporting it then it is impossible for Coat to be curling like that.
These are the inconsistencies that make it hard for me to believe Vergo is performing a Left Legged Round House kick. But if you want to chalk, that up to Oda's inconsistent Drawing Style, his lack of knowledge or Round House kick, be my guest. Here is Nami Performing a Decent Round House kick tho, but it is anime only
INPUT FROM CRITICAL MINDSET and HIS SNAP SHOTS OF CHATGPT 4.0 EXPLANATION
(1) Critical Mindset never indicates to the Chatgtp4 that Vergo’s shoe is showing the curvature of a right shoe with the inside curvature facing upwards. Chatgtp4 merely analyses Vergo’s body and coat alignment
(2) Critical Mindset asks Chatgtp4 to find faults with his own arguments based on biomechanics, logic and physics and then make the strongest possible case for left leg based on biomechanics, logic and physics
(3) Critical Mindset only inquires Chatgtp4 about biomechanical factors and the logical ad physical factors of the clothing in this evaluation. If Oda has decided to draw the left leg or clothing in an exaggerated manner as he after all is the author and has “artistic licence” to do so, this is not something Chatgtp4 accounts for in its analysis. Only the physical and biomechanical and logical arguments of the feasability of Vergo’s stance and coat are factored into the analysis of Chatgtp4
Now you guys be on the judge, whether Vergo did a Criss Cross Mid Movement switch to Right Leg or performed one of the most biomechanically impossible and atrociously drawn Left Right Round House Kick.
