OK, so I changed my feelings and mind about this Sun god thing overall. From one point you can say that this whole Sun god reference was taken from nowhere, case Shandians brings the sacrifices for Sun god and wanted to kill Kalgara's daughter.

BUT let's talk about Shandians, who are they? We surely know that this people fought against some enemy to protect the poneglyph and won in the fight. Shandians has wings, liky sky people, so probably they come from some sky island. Maybe Shandia people come to Jaya threw that Big Beanstalk. One thing is important that Shandian's pray to Sun god. Thing with sacrifice could be added much later to their culture. Also there was statement that Shandia pray to their ancestors, which could lead to the thing that Sun god for Shandia was something bigger then just stupid culture. They respected him and wanted Sun god to protect em.

In the Skypia arc it was Luffy who fullfilled destined fate between Kalgara and Noland in the moment when every one prayed. SO basically Luffy was the answer from the God to Shandians. In that terms Sun God Nika could make much more sence. Also fishman chose Sun picture as their symbol. In fact this could actually mean that Oda really planned all this Nika stuff.

But the way how Oda introduced Nika to the story wasn't best way for sure. Still I'm not going to lie, Sun god Nika is something that Oda planned, at least at some sort of way. Still I feel that Oda tried to make explanation about Sun god Nika to simple, which breaked some story point with Gorosei and etc.

I think it'll "make sense" if Enel or the Skypiean or that arc plot did actually name Sun God specifically and emphasize it's importance.

By then we can really consider it "makes sense".

Well, Shandians people are important for sure, case they fought in the big war. And that obviously leads to Void Centuary stuff. SO Shandians religion that count 800 years for sure is thing that we should look on closely.

Ok. First of all the name Nika was a late addition. We only heard of it from Who's Who. If that was previously planned we would have heard of it during Impel Down arc at least.

Second the sun itself is praised as a God and/or a symbol of freedom in many religions/society throughout the history. So just having a theme of religious people and they having a God is not a foreshadowing of what Nika is today. Or the same about an slaved race to choose a symbol of freedom since it was the theme of them.

That said. Nika powers in Luffy makes no fucking sense through the history and what we saw of him.

Nika powers is toon force. The free to do whatever he wants. But he conventionally had a rubber body just like the one we are introduced chapter 1.

Luffy didn't had access or full access to his powers until he awakened his DF. But conventionally his G4 is already those powers being putting at work since Kaido, who conventionally tends to be a rubber specialist, said that rubber wasn't suppose to act that way.
