General & Others Why did Luffy jump to G5 straight?

[S.W317]

I just can’t understand the reasoning behind it and why Oda chooses to draw Luffy in G5 at every chance he gets.

It makes Luffy look weak, the fact that he needed G5 to fight against Lucci and Kizaru and the giant animals makes it look like he’s YC level without it.

So why does Oda the fucker insists on doing this and shitting on his own MC?

Goku wasn’t spamming Super Saiyan, Naruto wasn’t spamming Bijuu Mode and Ichigo wasn’t spamming Bankai

You first fight with your base mode, wear your opponent down and only use your transformation at the end, this is strategy.

And how well did this "strategy" work out for Loki?

Because he likes drawing it, and no, it doesn't make him look weak without it, his limited screen-time against Imu in fucking base form disproves that.

Goku wasn’t spamming Super Saiyan, Naruto wasn’t spamming Bijuu Mode and Ichigo wasn’t spamming Bankai

And this is the stupidest shit I've read all month, you're basically saying the exact opposite of reality since all three do use their high-end forms 95% of the time.

 

[NAMELESS]

Because Oda wanted to draw Imu talking about Joyboy. There is nothing else to it.

 

[kekaro]

He likes to draw it
See you next week for asking the same

 

[MegaSpider]

Luffy without G5 would be dead in 2 mins.
He ate enough so G5 should last a while longer this time.

 

[Rootbeer]

Because his power boost from last chapter is limited, for now.. So Oda needs to show was Boosted G5 looks like..

 

[Fn Lucci]

Because that's absolutely what he does as shown by the entire series. It'd be weird if he didn't

Anyway I got tired of hearing bullshit like "base Luffy" so this is good

It wasnt base luffy too it was G3 or G4.

 

[Fn Lucci]

There is only one guy named Luffy and he does whatever he must to clap cheeks

 

[Sir Yasheen]

Because all other gears are trash compared to G5

 

[Roo]

Imagine thinking Penaldo is better than Messi

 

[Toryu]

Luffy told you that Imu was the strongest guy he ever felt, he overfeed to start with G5

 

[StellarRemnant]

CV might actually manage to drag this to penalties

 

[Fn Lucci]

Ugh. Tie up your man buns, pack up your cross body bags, and move your asses to a different sub forum

Because Luffy knew that without his peak form or strongest form he can't beat his opponent especially Imu caliber.
He literally said it himself that he always goes 100%.
Fans just don't admit this especially the part of base luffy bs and always laughing while fighting lol

It’s a story bro, Oda can just say Luffy is as powerful as Garp, he’s his grandson afterall

So this means, every fight from now on has to be a group fight, which is something I don’t like.

G5 only lasts for 3 minutes

 

[BoaHancocksHusband]

Luffy in base now > Ssj1 Goku

I believe its 5, same with how long imu able to go to "mortal" world.
But yea, its kinda crazy that Imu fighting Loki still below 5 minutes lol.
Its Manga and Anime afterall.
Other fan likes to say that Zoro got leftover, but they didn't realized by that Logic Luffy too.
