Why is it bad to want Zoro to defeat an emperor? after watching Luffy defeat every big bad every arc it gets old, it'd be nice if for once the big bad was defeated by Zoro or Sanji, I hate this narrative that every straw hat just needs to exist under Luffy's shadow
 
Please

One of the main arguments y'all used to justify zkk was zoro surpassing lolden by doing what lolden couldn't. That's as much about power level as it is about the non existent narrative.
Who is this ''y'all'' you're talking about ? Have you read any theory regarding ZKK or interacted with three people and decided it's ''y'all'' ? Or maybe you got influenced by DoodleBob and Erkek and decided to run with it ?
Zoro is supposed to represent ''strength'' in the crew so surpassing Oden was a given, which he actually did btw; first by doing the same feat (ie giving Kaido a scar) and then by mastering Enma and destroying a Lunarian (supposed to be invincible).

Aah the good old days of peak ZKK fanfiction.

I remember arguing with Nik and HA some days longer than I'd like to admit.

At the start ZKK fans deluded themselves to think Zoro would fight Kaido while Luffy would fight Big Mom.

When the rooftop fight happened god it reached peak ZKK delusion but I was always saying the dragon Zoro would slay would be King who had the dragon dragon fruit and man... the amount of hate that got from the Zoro fans, was nearly as bad as the hate I got from some Sanji fans when I said he wouldn't fight King.

When Zoro was forced off the roof top by Luffy the meltdown was real the ZKK brigade then moved their goal posts to Zoro will defeat King then go back to rooftop lol. When it became obviously clear Luffy and Kaido would 1 v 1 then that's when the ZKK gang moved the goal posts again to Luffy will lose to Kaido who will then awaken and Zoro will finish the fight.

Finally their cope was Zoro would kill Kaido who was on 1hp.

It was actually a glorious time to be a One Piece fan. HA did an immediate rage quit for a few months and Nik doubled down. I still think to this day Nik is still waiting for ZKK to happen.
 
You were not wrong, this is exactly how it was for the most part.
The conversations then devolved into downplay and mockery (as usual) which led the hardcore ZKK fans to double down and overexaggerate.
I'll take myself as an example and always said, that either Zoro deals the finishing blow (beheading) above the flower capital after a group fight (SHs was my bet) or Luffy and Kaido incapacitate each other but Kaido wakes up before Luffy (like most of the time) and Zoro finishes Kaido while he tries to kill Luffy. The reasoning was to parallel Ryuma so everyone had to see Zoro behead the Dragon while he was threatening everyyhing, not just killing a downed opponent.
Yeah, that's how I remember for the most part as well. Granted, I wasn't a forum going for the most part during it's peak.

But as with always, most radical takes are always what get remembered, like Luffy vs BM lmfao. That was never, 100%, not going to happen.
 
No. Since the OG concept of ZKK, stems from the fact Zoro would be upgrading himself by thoroughly cutting through Kaido. It wasn't as simple as killing Kaido. It was actually cutting Kaido up, something nobody has achieved in the series. It would've been a feat above Oden's. Nothing like Garling just stabbing through Xebec, a normal human with normal durability. Kaido's durability is remaining the same whether K.O'd or alive, due to his natural composition with the dragon scales.

There were different variations of how exactly that scenario would happen. With Luffy switching to BM to Luffy getting K.O'd but Kaido falling on top of the capital so Zoro has to slash him up, so on and so forth.

ZKK wasn't 1 particular theory around a specific scenario. It's just the general idea, that had various theories under it.
