I think it's a shame when a lot of the time a Straw Hat other than the top 3 is given props, it's in conjunction with bashing Sanji. You even see it with Nami and Usopp too. It just comes off as disingenuous when the only time certain characters are getting praise is joined with Sanji bashing...
Both were fine. I prefer Sanji's but Zoro's was quite nice as well. Can't say I cared much for Helmeppo and Morgan, especially when compared to Gin (and I guess Don Krieg). Zoro and Sanji themselves were also quite great in their introductions.
I would've enjoyed an extended 1v1 against Oven or Daifuku but I was content with most of it. Some stuff was iffy but I enjoyed it quite a lot overall. Gave us plenty of cool Sanji moments, along with Oda taking the time to set up Germa to contrast with Sanji to test and ultimately reaffirm...
SanjixViola (SanjixPudding is fine though).

LuffyxNami or Nami being alone, adopting a kid like Bellemere, I guess Luffy being alone would suit him as well. Nami hooking up with a random guy or girl would work as well but I'm not exactly shipping for pairings with non-important...
Destruction of the Raid Suit hands-down.It honestly surprised me, I thought I'd just have to accept that power-up (which was admittedly cool and now that it's gone, I wish Sanji v Page One was all on-panel) but Oda used it to test Sanji's ideals and convictions and it was glorious.
Return of...
Both were pretty good.
Sanji had his best near the end of his fight against Queen whilst Zoro's best was interacting with Hiyori and Yasuie and during Rooftop and vs King in my opinion.
Sanji was a bit more dynamic as a character this arc, choosing to put his pride aside and wear the suit to...
If the truth about the void century and Im is still secret to the Navy, there isn't much reason for the likes of Fujitora and Smoker to swap sides compared to now. They'll continue trying to be the change they want to see from within the Navy rather than abruptly swapping to Luffy's side in my...
Admirals will have their time to shine. I don't expect any of them aside from Akainu to be comparable to Kaido and even with him, I kinda expect the World's Strongest Creature to still maintain his hype. Doesn't matter to be honest, they can serve their purposes and be intimidating when the time...
Usopp hasn't been the tech guy in a while, Franky came in and specialised in that. Usopp spent the timeskip getting in touch with nature or whatever and incorporating plants into his attacks and such. Plus Elbalf is precisely where he said he wanted to go, no point in him missing it.
They'll be fine both character and strength-wise but if you're expecting all of them to be equal to or superior to Kaido then yeah, they'll be disappointing. I expect a lot from them, especially Akainu who I expect to give Luffy quite an intense battle.
Character-wise, hopefully Oda does more...
Over-scrutinising every word is a bit much. Sometimes characters move on, leave stuff to others or simply fail to meet their own expectations. It doesn't mean they're untrustworthy but sometimes things don't go as initially planned.
Nah, X-Drake's still alive, just incapable of contacting them at the moment, a lot happened at Onigashima, not surprising he doesn't have the means to contact his secret group St the moment. He's still part of a pretty decently significant faction in the form of Sword and he'll show up again...
Urouge beat the 600 million former Sweet Commander Snack pre-Whole Cake Island. I'd expect him to have been around the 700 million range post-invasion then maybe 1 billion after the few months since, especially if he's linked to a significant faction. The man's the final Supernova to get focus...
I don't think so but just me feeling like making assumptions about intelligence based solely on which characters a person likes is too ridiculous. No need to scrutinise people simply for enjoying something you don't, actual confusion and curiosity is fine of course.
Vegapunk! :stealthblack:
I'm looking forward to the Franky focus, his interactions with Vegapunk and what he gains from this arc.
Hopefully some cool Sanji stuff as well, seeing as he's the one who first name-dropped MADS, has a biological father as a member, fought another former member in...
Luffy got 1.5 billion for tons of stuff like the assassination attempt, beating Cracker, beating Katakuri and escaping safely.
Zoro got 1.1 billion for beating King and I suppose being under Luffy but it doesn't say anything about the quality of their opponents.
I enjoyed both King and...
I think the premise of this thread is fine but it quickly led to some really pretentious fanbase bashing, it's wild. No one's dumb just for liking a character, that's a bit too ridiculous of an assumption.
Nothing really comes to mind for me, I like hearing people's thoughts on characters and...
