No, because it is objectively NOT a new attack. It is a new variation of an old attack. Okay he got one "new thing" which he used one time in like 3 panels. That's it. Lets compare that to the dozen or so times throughout the arc he uses the same kick/laser/slash attacks he's been using since...
The fact that certain people have made this about agendas or power levels when that was never the point of the thread...
I feel like rather than focusing on "potential", the focus should be on the complete lack of new stuff Kizaru has shown.
Personally I was massively dissapointed in Kizaru...
Kizaru and Saturn, the two big bads of this arc, in theory should be stronger combined than Big Mom and Kaido who were the two big bads of the last arc
Whether than means both are stronger than Big Mom but weaker than Kaido or something else is up to interpretation.
100% agree, I also think people are not clued in to how competent Oda has made the villains of this arc. They are actually achieving many of their goals.
Lucci was able to infiltrate the Strawhats and leak information to Kizaru/Saturn, he's now successfully keeping Zoro away from the main...
I'm not expecting too much from them. I'm holding the crew to the same standard that they were set to in the pre-ts. Not only are the Strawhats doing less but Oda cares less about emphasizing what they actually do.
Robin figuring out who the traitor was and saving Vegapunk could have been a...
Lol hard disagree, Kizaru is Oda's take on the "just following orders" mindset. Kizaru does NOT want to do any of this at egghead, he still stabs his closest friend in the back (literally) because he was ordered to.
He's still an antagonist, he's still a member of the marines and has had no...
Lol, go reread Alabasta, Skypeia, Enies Lobby, and Thriller Bark then come back and tell me that the point of the MC is to step on every other character's toes. Every one piece fan expects Luffy to get the most shine every arc, that doesn't mean the other characters deserve to do basically...
Luffy fans once again acting like its a big joke to be a fan of any other character other than Luffy. I feel like it should be a pretty big issue for the manga if literally the biggest fans of the series are constantly being disappointed by the story because of the MC stepping on everyone's...
Kizaru. While its heavily implied Vegapunk may have simply bled out without Kizaru finishing him off, this is One Piece and some plot bullshit probably would have saved him if not for Kizaru.
I find it really, truly ironic that as Luffy has been built up into the "sun god" by Oda, the story has become increasingly heliocentric around him and the crew has become less and less important.
Oda has introduced so many new side characters in the post-ts that the crew have become...
I hope Oda starts having Kizaru fight for real now that Sanji and Luffy are directly getting in his way, Saturn has been punched away, and Vegapunk was stabbed.
Knowing Oda though some bullshit is going to come in and interrupt him again next chapter
If we see the Gorosei as Imu's henchmen similar to other villain groups, then wouldn't Nusjuro be the strongest Gorosei? Since Zoro almost always fights the strongest henchmen?
Even if Zoro does fight the 2nd strongest gorosei for whatever reason, why would Warcury be the strongest over Ju...
Back in chapter 1090 we were introduced to the log pose Vegapunk has which points towards Elbaf, which was also going to be their origional escape plan before Kizaru destroyed the Vegaforce 01.
Clearly Elbaf is the next Island the crew is going to travel to, nobody would argue with that. Dorry...
Its funny how much you are talking about agendas when its pretty clear your own agenda is clouding your perspective here.
The arc is nearly over and nobody is around to fight Kizaru other than Luffy. Idk why you are being so rude when its a pretty natural conclusion to come to that either...
Again, you can debate the extent to which his mental state is affecting his ability in combat, but you cannot deny that he is conflicted about his mission and does not want to carry it out.
As many people have already pointed out:
-Between Saturn and Kizaru, Luffy has only expressed a desire to fight Kizaru. Oda specifically had Luffy be out of commission when Saturn came in to be the main threat.
-Luffy has explicitly stated that Kizaru is a "super strong" opponent, and that...
Simple reading comprehension answered this question months ago.
A key theme of the Navy throughout the story is the balance between justice and duty. Each and every high ranking marine has their own interpretations of both. We see this most clearly for the first time with Smoker in Alabasta...
I don't think this is actually about toxicity and is genuinely an issue of a large difference of interpretation.
Most people when they first read through the series are very much not close readers and probably didn't pay attention/remember a lot of details. They just get the gist of the story...
