I don't recall Luffy relying on food to defeat anyone in pre timeskip. At most when he defeats Blueno he said he was weaker before for being starving. Then again against Katakuri he complains about being starving but fights good anyone. I at least don't consider he beated Katakuri. And back at Kaido he eats to recover after being knocked out for the 2nd time in that fight. And again at Egghead. Why Oda is suddenly pushing food piece agenda to scale Luffy's capabilities to fight? So now every fight he lost is just because he didn't ate enough? Every time Luffy looks bad is because he is starving? Wtf!?
Questions & Mysteries When did Oda started the food obsession with Luffy?
- Thread starter HerreraIsBack
- Start date
I mean, it only started with G5, and hes only done it twice so far, at least in the middle of a conflict.
G5 turns him into a shriveled up old man for whatever reason. I do hope the eventual point is to negate the weakness, or at least as long as Imu uses his powers.
The difference is Imu is immortal so we dont know if its also slowly killing Luffy either

Eh depends
You are right its a geniune shounenism thing that oda plays hard with luffy that always kinda existed but it doesnt apply overall to all characters imo
I never for example rememberin any Sanji or other characters fight they need to before, during or, at the end to get "full restore". We see them seldom eat in fact at all, not related to that only, beside some rare exceptions
It would be even a plothole as Sanji already demonstrated he can cook mid combat so he could go infinite

You know what crazy?
Younger fans/tourist probally dont remember but when Luffy gassed out against Doffy he didnt even eat 1 breat crumb even having infinite opportunities to, so getting carried out by the citizens in the city, neither, if i remember correctly, asked for it
lmaaaaao
clowning aside after that kaido battle, where the peak of the battle was also about food, even kaidos question, i have the feeling oda is gonna tie some world hunger/food theme or some stuff like that towards the end, it seems like a flip in his head got switched or something
