    Speculations The other admirals are probably getting beaten by side characters

    I'd say Issho is a potential ally in a fight against the World Government. I mean, the guy already helped Revolutionaries escape and then went at it with Aramaki.

    Controversial General Political Discussion

    It is typical politicians' response... they see that something they don't like is happening, but they don't want to ask themselves (or admit) why it is happening... so enter banhammer!

    I don't need a better pair of glasses. You however need to remove your eyewear.

    Does it? Because I don't really see minorities being oppressed anywhere, in the West at least.

    Manga Discussion D.Gray Man

    Not Cross_Marian, but the original anime is almost panel-for-panel faithful to manga. Even the filler is taken from light novels and is thus de-facto canon. Hallows, however, is a steaming pile of turd. It changes scenes, shifts scenes around so they don't make sense, removes whole arcs... and...

    Speculations Shanks is not who we think he is.

    I disagree as far as "goals" go. Luffy started his journey by declaring that he will assemble the strongest crew and beat Shanks' crew. Luffy wants to become the Pirate King because 1) he sees the Pirate King as the "freest person in the seas" and 2) to surpass Shanks. Roger is just a man...

    General & Others Who do you think was the yonko before Shanks?

    I think we first have to ask IF there was an Emperor before Shanks. There is absolutely no reason why there would have to be four Emperors, unless you assume that beating an Emperor is a prerequisite for becoming one. Which it isn't... Blackbeard didn't become a Yonko after he killed...

    Controversial General Political Discussion

    It being a myth is merely your assumption. And no, I am not saying that radicality = violence, but that there is a positive correlation. More radical ideas are, more restructuring of society is necessary to implement them. And that leads to violence - not always, but in at least 90% of cases.

    Controversial General Political Discussion

    Yet it nearly always happens. In fact, some of the nicest-sounding ideas have led to most genocidal regimes.

    Current Events Why s-shark has more damage than s-hawk?

    Because 1) S-Hawk is likely stronger than S-Shark and 2) S-Shark is a chunky boy and so has a lot more surface area for damage to show.

    Current Events New Yonko do not have the same prestige as OG Yonko

    I agree that bounties cannot be used for outright powerscaling. There is still some logic to it, though. Shanks has the lowest bounty among the OG group because he is the youngest and wasn't really all that of an active threat. Guy is a party monster, not a monster monster like Blackbeard...

    Current Events Complete and Utter Terror: The Admirals Keep the Yonko Awake at Night

    I think Oda is trying to "repair" admirals' reputation here. I mean, first we have Kuzan fighting against Garp, and now Kizaru. Whatever happens, it is not going to be easy for Straw Hats, and I can honestly see them losing here (though I don't consider it likely), because... quite frankly, I...

    Spoiler One Piece Chapter 1090 Spoilers Discussion

    Yes, trying to kill somebody who cannot even fight instead of incapacitating other active threats apparently does not qualify as "targeting" them in kurwa-world. :suresure: Also, this:

    Spoiler One Piece Chapter 1090 Spoilers Discussion

    You know, if you are going to discuss something, you might want to read it first. Kizaru deliberately targeted Zoro back then, much like Akainu deliberately targeted Luffy. Kizaru basically ignored the rest of the Straw Hats, and if Rayleigh didn't intervene, Zoro will have died. EDIT: Plus...

    Oh, Zoro vs Kizaru will definitely happen at some point. Question is, though, will it happen now?
