Spoiler One Piece Chapter 1180 Spoilers Discussion
- Status
Yes, Imu doesn't have an oversight over everything that happens on the planet, he isn't omniscient and omnipresent, but you would think Mihawk roaming the seas for decades, having fierce duels with one of the Figarland sons that was renowned in the grandline and being promoted to Shichibukai, having the "black blade" which is held in such high regard, would somehow make Imu even pay attention, but Mihawk is basically a ghost to Imu. It doesn't help that Mihawk looks visibly stressed when Buggy declares they will go for the One Piece, and questions the idea of picking fights with the other Yonko. That's not the aura of an endgame villain. And now we have Gaban saying that Imu's Haki alone is unlike anything he felt in his entire life, including all the big shots at GV.
I don't even see how Mihawk fits in as an endgame villain at this point.

Zoro looks a lot better than initial hints from worstgenhq and chopper confirm he tanked that attack. The bleeding they mentioned was over exaggerated massively if I’m not pissing a panel 
@Djordje you tagged me a couple of times to get a response and I know it was to troll and slander. But like I said I will wait till raws and full summary to comment. @nik87 @mly90 @Shimotsuki Fenaker @Cruxroux @Crow @Ice devil slayer @ice-flo @HA001
Heres what I make of the whole situation. Imu is very very quick, while Zoro was able to block Sommers attack on the kids he couldn't protect the giants/Gerd from Imu. So he somehow failed Luffy who thought that Zoro being there guaranteed safety.
Zoro using KOH Onigiri against Imu shows the difference in power creep. That is Zoros most basic move and his strongest mode. Compare that to Wano where Zoro started against Kaido with an Onigiri. The progression has been from Pre TS Onigiri to Post TS Rengoku Onigiri to Post Wano KOH Onigiri. I dont know if thr attack is the same as used against King because that one was a ranged attack and here Zoro is right next to the opponent even though the hands and swords are in a different position I think.
Now while people want to slander Zoro with tail blocking the attack, they willfully ignore that Imu has used the same as his weapon in his introduction twice to hit opponents (Cobra and Sabo). So the tail aint the weak part and nor was the tip used to block. On the contrary we can see clear shiver/vibration lines to show the force of the impact on the tail. The tail block looks very similar to how Nasurjuo blocked Rashomon in terms of paneling/placement.
The disappointing part is that Zoro left himself open to counter attack. Granted that hr probably didnt expect to get blocked by the tail but after Wano you expect him to block such attacks with full body haki like he did against Jackpot. And Odas intent here is clear, comparing the attacks against the giants, Zoro and Sanji its clear that the weakest one was used against Zoro although it was supposedly the FVs first named attack in the series. We see that Zoro is conscious (not one shot like the leakers implied) and will probably be involved for other stuff/fight. This is the time stalling or Zoro out of picture shit but without having Zoro KOd etc. For the giants and Sanji though it seems that they will be out for a while, Sanji will probably get back up due to Exo durability and regen and being able to get into a defensive stance.
Am I disappointed, yes in how Oda chose to take Zoro away from the main action. But I think that this arc might have more similarities with DR in terms of the villain (Imu/Doffy) having history with Loki/Law and as such we can expect (Nasurjuo/Pica) to be Zoros arc opponent eventually.
@Salah WG what do you think of the progression I mentioned, is KOH Onigiri Zoros new base from here on out. Can't wait to see KOH 10800 Pound Canon or KOH Sanzen Daisen Sikai.

Zoro tanked that attack 
Are you guys ready for zoro vs imu round 2 @nik87 this doesn't look that unlikely anymore given how zoro has barely taken any damage

Any Zoro downplay is always based on lies.
First Zoro stand from Imu and imu look at him, we even got à close visual on imu when zoro asked if he was a holy Knight
Then When Zoro attacked Imu, we got another close on Imus vision (Futur sign?) then he used his magic tail coated in advCoc to block zoro then brutaly attacked Zoros head with a flame that was shaped into cutting fire.
Zoro wasnt unconcious and was instead frustrated by the people who got injured by Imu under his protection.
Zero time to think of himself for someone who is finished.
Chopper tell zoro to help him move the injured and secure the placz.

Sanji fucking vanished and was shit scared when Imus kicj was upon him.
And unlike Sanji, harjudin Zoro is the only on who managed to restrain the fire. It didnt explode on him as it did on sanji, Harjudin and even The ice created by Ragnir.
I think we trashed Kidd way too much for getting beaten by a highly concentrated, powerful ACoC slash while Zoro looked like he saw Jesus after Imu flick diffed him.
Nah, Zoro really looked bad. It speaks volumes that the post ts hypetool highly outperformed Zoro against the final villain. The hypetool doesn't even have ACoC.
The only good thing is that Zoro wasn't unconscious for an unknown time but come on, that is hardly an achievement - he arguably took the weakest attack out of all the characters in this chapter.

This shit is frustrating, the guy does this all the time and then starts giving excuses when he gets called out. That's why I have started waiting till raws and full summary cause the agenda is clear. And given how this community lives and sticks with first impressions you have the lies get stuck and brought up every single time.
This is proper disrespect.
Should have actually used the tip of his tail vs Zoro and eye diffed Sanji.
So far Imu hasn't been that imposing. Last chapter's panel was hard. Lacklustre apart from negging giants which are fodder anyway. Hoping for more or he's just ass.
