Current Events Gold Roger Is Not Special And 1156 Was Horrible For Him

[Mathias]

Pirates are bad people. No surprise there

Ugh my dude, there is narratively a difference between characters like Xebec/Teach/Kidd and Goofy/Roger.

Just like it has now been established for more a thousand chapters.

 

[Okamakama]

From Gol D. Roger.

To Gol D. Fraud.

I miss the Roger we never knew - I want the Roger I met to go away.

 

[Rumble]

This thread premise and the Silver Axe avi go together like peanut butter and jelly.

Some of y’all have stayed teenagers long past acceptable.

 

[NikaInParis]

I don't disagree with you, but it is stated they are after the Kuja because they want Shakky to join them.

If only Oda threw in a simple "let's have a Davvy Back fight for her" in there it would have read better than this cave man kidnap plot

 

[comrade]

Roger when he hears the strongest Marine is on board (the one Aokiji admires): change of plans, I'm going to fight!

Also Roger after wasting marines: At least bring Garp or Sengoku.

Then Roger would have lost in a way where he lost something other than his pride... without it getting even creepier (succeeding at getting Shakky)...

One way or another, the whole premise was creepy.

Lmao this doesn’t change anything about Roger power level or anything

I legit don't care about his strength or anything.

I just feel like the Roger from the early days had such a different vibe compared to how he really was. Maybe this is just a narrative framing device - we used to think Roger had to be this mythical figure, when really, he was just a dude similar to Luffy.

Even then... old Roger just had a different feel to him. I miss those days.

 

[God Buggy]

Took you long enough. Welcome aboard.

Well it kinda depends? Oden was about to turn Kaido into ham and he was the 4th on Roger's crew. I dread what Roger might have done to Kaido. Or look at Big Meme.

On the other hand, it's unlikely the C3 are any below prime Garp who matched Roger. Given those busted fruits and their versatility. Kuzan going at it in a punching contest against The Fist and Kizaru feeding a Yonkou and looking completely fine ar the end of the arc.

Only destiny's child Shanks is special.

 

[U c 4 up da idly]

Roger is still top 1 and the scrub generation still don't hold a candle to him

 

[vikas]

Oda is hyping old gen,...but this chapter just showed us they are just frauds....We try to scale current gen to old gen..but its actually that the old gen is much weaker than current gen

 

[Sentry22]

So your disappointed that roger didn’t destroy any buildings with his haki when they are in the middle of the sea with nothing but ships around them.

This is a much younger version of Roger so I see no reason to care about this.

 

[Killerj]

Roger is fine. Nibbas be talking for the sake of talking

 

[Doggo]

Ngl.
Of all the characters you people would choose to "dehype", choosing freaking Roger out of all of them is legit insanity.

You guys take these "fun chapters" from Oda WAY too seriously LMAO.

Anything that gets their agenda going is up for grabs that's why people started doing color spread scaling and height scaling

A man must preserve his aura at all times. Never appear weak, event against a child, go all out. Never joke, never jest, never show emotion, never be struck, never speak unless you're uttering some line about wild animals and demon kings before exterminating your foes in maximum style. Vulnerability is unacceptable, quirkiness is a sin, jovialness is weakness and flaws are for the losers. Smoldering stoicism, complete control and absolute domination are the only acceptable states a character is allowed to exist in. That is the way of a true conqueror, but a terribly boring "character", thankfully Oda doesn't follow these rules and is actually a capable writer.

 

[Desolate Smaug]

Imo current top tiers are more closer to PK tier after this chapter.

There doesn't seem to be any new level of haki. Only joyboy/imu will show higher levels of haki.

Kaido's haki won't be that far below Roger's plus he has DF boost.

WB had equal haki clash with roer and has DF

Shanks is Roger 2.0 and mihawk is bit stronger than shanks

Akainu may get adv coc plus awakening

PK tier is not that special anymore.

This was always the case tbh. Strength isn't the issue, its the actions these characters take. I always though if someone like BM managed to get one piece she would be objectively strong enough to defend it at her Tot Land empire and she would legit be the Pirate King.
