If he has an owl devil fruit, then hypnosis will be one of his owl abilities. Owl's are given hypnotic powers in Japanese culture.

Those "ifs" are baseless premises. Luffy gave himself the particular role of defeating the most powerful threat as the thing he knew how to do best; Luffy wants to be the strongest person in the world as stated in Enies Lobby; when Koby first met Luffy, he reflected on how Luffy was after...

Nah, this is naive, nothing stops Oda from creating more unexpected players to be silhouetted just like God Knights or the Burned Scar Man weren't even a thing until very recently.

How do you conciliate this with events that coincide with Luffy's awakening but are out of his control, such as Poseidon reborning now or sharing the will of D.? Would also mention the straw hat and its significance that, at least from a meta standpoint, gives Lufy a "chosen one" halo. I mean...

This is one of the reasons why I can't stand Naotoshi Shida. His animation is so full of itself that, for example, one punch that should be straight, quick and clean becomes, as you well said, a squiggly, boneless concatenation of unnecessary detours. Two examples: Almost feels like they...

Why do you assume Oda doesn't see his characters are Japanese-looking by default? They are caricatures, they don't look caucasian nor asian. And even when they do because they're based on real people, readers may misidentify their race, e.g. Kuzan or Kizaru seen as black in spite of being...

He didn't teleport from Mary Geoise, he came in a ship.

Which is what happens in that panel...? That guy is clearly Saturn, his profile is consistently highlighted throughout the chapter; here you have the panels from the colored version: There's no trait in this face that reminds of Ju Peter.

If you mean the shadow in your right picture, that's Saturn.

Can Jack casually spam a technique strong enough to defeat a Tobi Roppo? Has Jack shown any kind of technique allegedly capable of crushing the whole body of even busoshoku masters? Does Jack have any answer to invisibility plus electricity plus beams plus an enhanced body all at once? Is...

Every Celestial Dragon treats lesser races as insects, not only the Elders, e.g. in chapter 763, a citizen says the Celestials treat them as such. It's also not something specific of Celestials, since other people like Mihawk or even Dragon have used the "insect" insult against those who they...

This is what being a weaboo does to your mind: You actually believe a character from a manga has a chance at being the most iconic at anything in the real world.

If devil fruits came to exist because of people's dreams, and if Imu is the final villain representing the maximum opposition to the good guys who follow their dreams, then Imu rose the sea level in order to threaten devil fruits and, by extension, dreamers.

The biggest clue is that Mars literally refers to Im as "creator" in chapter 1086, which is the shared name given to the first twenty.

Why do the Elders refer to Im as a creator if Im isn't one of the original creators?

Yeah, it's 100% impossible Killer is stronger than Kid. Managing to do some damange to Kaidou (Kid made him cry in pain too) is pointless unless you believe Kiku is stronger than Kid too, by the way. It literally wasn't a vice captains color spread as per Oda's own explanations in SBS 102: D...

Your argument relied on Zoro being the fighter as a reason to make him the strongest individually, which isn't a role limited to the Straw Hats, so of course I'm using other fighters as counterexamples for your reasoning. A reasoning that is flawed since day one because we have had one speech...

Luffy didn't say that his role was to lead Zoro so Zoro could defeat Arlong; Luffy said his role was to defeat Arlong. That's all you need to know, saying that Luffy's role is to lead is plainly dishonest because he doesn't lead anybody against the strongest foe: he goes and defeats him himself...

And, at the end of the day, he remains the only one capable of ultimately winning where the rest can't. The only difference between Luffy and other good guys (like the one in your profile picture) is that Luffy is the only one strong enough to come back and actually defeat the bad guy.

Oda: writes Luffy stating his unique role in the crew isn't to use swords but to defeat the main threat. Oda: writes Luffy stating his aim is to be the strongest person in the world so he can protect everybody and grant freedom. Oda: writes Zoro consistently facing foes significantly weaker than...
