General & Others What are you thoughts on the Holy Knights so far?

I’m thoroughly dissapointed in them. They don’t seem to have any real combat capabilities. Gunko was impressive even pre possession her fruit is also impressive. However, Killingham and Sommers are trash so far. I have hope for Shamrock still. Garling was abused by Xebec which made him look weak. Their careless because of their regen more than likely but it appears as if they just can’t fight.

What do you think of them?
Sommers the goat.

The immortal curse is really the curse in action fantasy so it's about time that gap was filled. Oda had it in him to create probably this group as the last of the quirky mini bosses and honestly it makes me want to see Imu stay around a bit longer as well. Ironic.

Individuals:
Garling - he's really the epitome of what they should be. I don't really care for the Figarland family at all but he seems like a good character when it comes to having multi faceta within one completely dominant disposition.

Shamrock - really not much of a character so far. Foppish son and evil twin, gimmick weapon. I feel like his best value has to be his potential strength. Which isn't too good but should work if Oda doesn't push Shamrock beyond what he can deliver.

Gunko - having a female villain in the front is cool. I mean yeah she's not totally evil, but it seems more like a tragic backstory than trying to say women are innocent with any certainty.

Sommers - the resident "hircha" man. Every group needs a dude on the fringe of the trope to argue in their behalf. He won't stand up to you, but he'll pull your girls hair and smack her. That's good in a way.

Killingham - eh. Nice fork

Girlingham - I like the trauma she instilled in Dragon.

Seemed about what I expected, they’re dangerous to most characters becasue of the immortality and they have strong powers, and its only the first set of them. What happens when characters that aren’t Strawhats face them, two of them dominated the giants with little effort. Then a whole Shanks twin is leading them. Imagine if the knights at base are as competent as Gunko, what if the ones at base are in another league, idk for a bunch of celestial dragons this works for me.
