The bigger the success, the more work there is to do. One Piece is multimedia empire with many revenue streams that come with their own stakeholders. It is worth billions through licensing deals and partnerships for toys, merchandise, apparel, snacks, expanded media, co-promotions, and so on...

Entitlement. There really isn't more to it than that.

Oda takes breaks for rest and recovery. He has shared some but limited information about his health, it's been reported he is diabetic, has gout and high blood pressure. Togashi takes hiatuses because he has chronic, debilitating health issues that physically impair him. He literally cannot...

We have exactly one, but the context speaks for itself.

Nice try. This special edition contains information straight from Oda. It released with 1169. It's contemporary and there's nothing you can do about it. :cryabit: Rejoice, the actual feats have Sanji well ahead.

:kobeha: He sure did.

The funny thing about ZKK is that it could absolutely work, but really only in a specific context. Because One Piece is really kid friendly, Strawhats would die for Luffy, but not all of them have it in them to kill for him. At least not without it taking a toll. From a Wings perspective, I...

Oda wants to have his cake and eat it too. That's why he'll never give a definitive answer unless he absolutely has to. For that reason, I was confident from the beginning there wouldn't be a Wings vs Ogres fight. It's Schrödinger's powerscaling. :suresure:

Holy Knights move with impunity. Damaging them outside of specific context. Usopp blowing up Gunko isn't impressive for that reason. Sanji kicking the shit out of Killingham is, but only because of the speed blitz.

Mind you, they keep engaging in bad faith and taking shots after the fact once you step in, but it's okay because they don't use crude language. If I engage in good faith and someone wastes my time, the language is going to inevitably change. :kayneshrug: Half the time I call people cunts here...

They should stop earning them.

Pussy. :kobeha:

Sanji typically fights subordinates with more personality and less cool factor. I would have liked to see Zoro confront fears over Kuina, but I’m more than okay with Sanji getting to fight a Mythological Zoan with a cool design, busted DF, interesting weapon. Killingham could manifest bugs to...

Ryuuma lived 400 years ago. Giants live for centuries. Many generations of kings failed to claim the DF, i.e. a lot longer than 400 years ago. The last user is implied to have fought against the original Nika, who precedes Joyboy by centuries if not millennia. Sword swallowers got too much...

There is increasingly less evidence this will be a straightforward fight of crew vs crew. Strawhats will need and have allies in two instances I believe they will clash. I believe they will fight alongside the Red Hair Pirates the first time and lose. Shanks will die ensuring Luffy’s escape...
