Nico Robin

Zoro Luffy Robin Franky Sanji Nami Brook Chopper Jinbe Usopp

Overall I like Robin more, but Nami's unwavering loyalty to Luffy even in the face of death were incredible moments for her in my book so I'd pick Nami for this.

Uncontested & undisputed, it's Usopp. Bro had 1 moment in Dressrosa and has been a non-factor ever since. Even in the Elbaf arc (which he has been waiting for since little garden) and he hasn't done a damn thing yet.

No manga is perfect, Oda has certainly made a few decisions that we didn't enjoy. But overall, the quality, depth and consistency of this series is phenomenal. I'm still amazed at the amount of thought Oda has put into world building and lore (which is my favorite thing about the series). 9/10

I think the world building has leveled up. I am usually excited for flashbacks, especially now in the endgame where Oda doesn't need to hold back as much. And some fights are really good. But other than that, post time skip has been lacking the sense of adventure and comedy of pre time skip.

the darker design in the manga is far superior. I wish they were all in black (or at least darker colors). Makes them look more threatening and evil. These power ranger designs are disappointing for Sommers and Killingham. Gunko still looks fine. Shamrock is passable. IMO

The Holy Knights have been quite disappointing. They have no business challenging top tiers.

Which group do you think is more powerful for the Government? The Holy Knights are nigh-immortal and can quickly recover from any injury. The Seraphim are nigh-invincible do to Lunarian genes, and Pacifista enhancements.

Garp > Whitebeard

Best fruits: either the Soul-Soul fruit (Big Mom's). I think the ability to bring inanimate objects to life and have them obey me would be so insanely useful in the real world. Or the Luck-Luck fruit as @Yoho said that would be really useful too. Worst Fruit: Either the Jacket-Jacket fruit or...

We all would love for Dragon to do something, anything at this point. But let's be real, he ain't doing a damn thing. I'm hoping the attack on Mariejoa is caaused by Dragon (or at least Blackbeard if not).

Shakky gooning. It was fine for a pun or two but having that be the motivating factor behind why many of the most powerful characters in the world gather for one of the most impactful wars in recent history is just pathetic to see. Roger has lost aura behind this woman, only for her to end up...

Luffy learns Advanced Advanced CoC (AACoC) to 2v1 Imu with Loki Zoro vs Killingham (Zoro learns AACoC too) Sanji vs Sommers Imu leaves Gunko's body at some point because her body is too weak. We find out it's either Blackbeard or Dragon that has attacked Mariejoa.

Useless Captain Mid has added very little to the story tbh. A couple cool moments during Wano fights is all he did. A rivalry with Luffy that went absolutely nowhere and now the gap between them is irreconcilable. His defeat has had ZERO impact on anyone or anything in the world. He was just...
