I managed to avoid spoilers so I came into the chapter with no expectations and... I don't know how to feel about this retcon. It makes the WG look completely incompetent by not putting more effort into catching Luffy, and I don't know how I feel about the super cartoony Jim Carrey's Mask...
When you say God level feats, are you speaking about DBZ level, world-ending feats? Because something I like about One Piece is that even the most powerful characters don't seem capable of doing stuff like that, except for maybe the Gura Gura
I've always thought that if your main reason for reading/watching OP is the fights, you'd be doing yourself a disservice, as other series do the choreography and plotting of fights way better than Oda. It just isn't one of his big strengths.
I think what M944 means if that a pirate could theoretically find One Piece and become the Pirate King without needing to be Joyboy's reincarnation, but only Joyboy is capable of using One Piece (the true knowledge or the actual treasure, who knows) to bring the dawn of the world and tear down...
Yeah I get this feeling that One Piece has started to suffer from the same issues that a lot of other Shonen suffer as they enter their endgame - the focus of the story inevitably starts shifting towards the more powerful characters, and the "weaker" ones are left behind to become essentially...
It's so obviously referring to their wills, I swear some people in here have powerscaling brainrot :lusalty:
Yeah I sure expected Luffy to say "Samurai top tier, they easy diff Kaido and the Admirals + ratio"
Difficult to decide between the three Luffy fights. Lucci vs. Luffy is the most emotionally impactful for sure, but I wonder if that's more because of how good Enies Lobby is? Are we speaking about the fights in isolation?
Katakuri vs. Luffy has a "respectful fight between equals" vibe going...
He'll probably be indifferent to it. Not sure if Oda is willing to change the status quo even with a reveal as massive as this one. Luffy will likely continue acting the same way as always... :absojustice:
I hate the "Chosen One" trope with a passion, and I honestly struggle to find a good example of it... maybe Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson? Idk.
However, I don't think the example you gave is necessarily a case of Luffy's "chosen one" privileges, it seems more like a side-effect of him being...
I find it bizarre how this forum sometimes actively roots against Luffy, the main character of a shonen manga. He'll obviously get a new power-up to defeat the big bad guy, I don't know why anyone would expect otherwise from this genre. You could argue about Zoro vs Luffy all day but I think...
Based on the popularity polls, I wouldn't call Sabo underrated at all. I'm not a big fan of him so maybe I'm biased, but right now I just think he's a less cooler version of Ace. I do like his involvement with the Revolutionaries though, and I bet he's gonna play a really important role in the...
I don't read One Piece for the fights either -I actually dislike the obsession a lot of people in this forum have with powerscaling- but I still find the story of Wano's fall, the scabbards, Momo, Oden, Roger, Kaido, etc. to be more entertaining than FI. I still like a lot of the elements from...
Even if Fishman Island did have great amounts of worldbuilding and lore reveals, I think it's unfair to claim that this "objectively" makes it better than any other arc. If someone says that they are more invested in the conflict, characters, and plot beats of another arc and therefore think...
