Inherited will is very much a part of One Piece's story and Oda himself keeps making folks a repeat of past figures. So funnily enough in this story, Imu isn't a paranoid retard, he is actually correct. Luffy is in fact the successor to both Roger and Joy Boy, Blackbeard is in fact the successor...

More ongoing than MarineHQ's account activity. :Raku_Stare:

I have a conspiracy theory that Oda deliberately extended the lifespan of One Piece with dogshit pacing so he could copy the EoS ideas of his mangaka competitors. Kubo and Kishimoto should sue. :risisure:

To be fair, fate/destiny/gods/demons/legends/reincarnations etc was always going to comparatively make more sense for One Piece than for Naruto.

Ya gotta wonder why Togashi doesn't just switch to straight up novels at this rate.

When you proactively churn out as many concept ideas as Oda does, you end catching lightning in a bottle a surprising number of times.

Huh, that actually looks pretty good.

Doffy and Law hard carried that arc. If Oda screwed up those two then Dressrosa would easily be the worst arc of One Piece. Lol.

Dressrosa anime made me quit watching One Piece too. Toei should legit be sent to the ICC for that war crime, the pacing was pure torture. What really got me back then was that every episode had like a 5 minute long recap of the entire arc so far, the episode preceding it and then you got your...

The real killer comparison to make is that the entire Summit War Saga, all of it, is 108 chapters. This is a saga with 5 arcs (Saboady, Amazon Lily, Impel Down, Marineford and Post-War). Dressrosa, a typical beat a Warlord arc, had absolutely no right to match the entire Summit War Saga for...

To be fair, I think Long Ring Island Arc hate comes from anime only watchers because the anime removed Aokiji from Long Ring Island and put him slightly further along elsewhere, meaning that Foxy is the sole antagonist of that arc and then Foxy got used gratuitously multiple times for anime...

Mercenary Tao and King Piccolo were farming villains back in og Dragon Ball too.:goyea:

Projects like this make me feel absolutely nothing. We practically know Maul's entire life story. Seeing what he was doing in Year 1 of the Empire's existence is pointless. We already know anything he did failed because he is a lonely loser in Rebels. He literally can't do anything to the Empire...

It really isn't on the same tier. The insta-kill to this discussion is comparing the writing surrounding the protagonists. As far as I'm concerned, Bleach isn't actually a story. It's a setting for Kubo to draw some clean looking art. Bleach hasn't got a lick of substance to it as a story. Lol.
