The only thing Teach does that Madara, Itachi, Cell, Frieza don't, is being a pedophile.


Lucci saved pre TS tension. Water 7 Lucci > Katakuri.


Lucci > Crocodile.
Crocodile only beat Luffy twice because he is a logia, same with Smoker / Aokiji. Once Luffy gets the trick the fight becomes more even. Luffy didn't need to learn anything to beat Crocodile.

The only one who beat Luffy in psychical brawl pre TS was Lucci. It wasn't 1 vs 1 it was 1 vs 2, Lucci bodied both Luffy and Zoro together.
Not even Kaido got this portrayal, bodying 2 strongest Straw Hats. While the likes of Doffy and Vergo only got Sanji as their hype tool.

Luffy's most iconic moved are Gears, and Lucci is the reason Luffy learned these moves.

Lucci is still a boring and ass villain with a one note personality and overshadowed by Spandam 🤣 🤣 🤣

Nah this is the realest thing I've maybe ever read on this forum. Spitting pure facts here 😂😂😂

I think this has to do with the fact that One Piece is heavily hero centric. Has that cuck energy going on, one of the reasons I can't stand Shanks too, he gives me that "beat the bullies" vibe. What's that one thread the dude with the Naruto frog pfp made? 😂

No One Piece villain, except maybe Doflamingo, has the aura of villains like Frieza, Cell, Super Buu, Pain, Itachi, Obito (pre-reveal), or Madara. I’d even argue that more minor villains like Sasori have more aura than many arc villains in OP tbh.

I think a large part of it is that OP villains usually don’t have as much of a backstory, so they end up feeling like generic baddies who are just there to be an obstacle for Luffy. I mean ffs, even Sasori, who only fought Sakura and Chiyo for a few chapters before being written out of the story, had a longer and better backstory than Kaido…

The stretch from Reverse Mountain to Alabasta is Peak One Piece villain arcs

I won't even say final arc, but maybe second half of final arc...which again could have been made better but we know they wanted to print money at that point.

Doffy,Arlong,Lucci,Eneru,are great villain. Its just that One Piece in the US is less popular than Naruto or Dragon Ball so they get less articles or social media posts devoted to them.
Blackbeard is an unconvetional villain but it can be amazing for this reason
