    General & Others Wano had very few abandoned plot points

    A plot point without any follow up is simply eating space and wasting ink on the page, for if there is no other plot points to finish what the 1st plot point started, then it may as well never happened as objectively nothing comes from a sole plot point on it's own. Such a thing is simply left...

    General & Others Wano had very few abandoned plot points

    A plot point can be dropped if there are no other plot points to connect to said plot point to create a plot line. As such the plot points were dropped for other plot points that Oda deemed more appropriate for Zoro and Franky at the time. As the time has passed for these plot points to make any...

    General & Others Wano had very few abandoned plot points

    Zoro proclaiming that he'd gather the samurai, and Franky boasting about creating Anti-Kaido weapons are definitely dropped plot points.

    General & Others Is One Piece Overrated, Underrated or Fairly Rated

    Sadly you didn't even attempt to establish or discuss what makes One Piece popular as if it's a total mystery when it isn't, and simply kept repeating that simple fact of sales like a parrot. I was even willing to converse with you about the ins and out on what makes One Piece popular, but I see...

    General & Others Is One Piece Overrated, Underrated or Fairly Rated

    And what does the popularity say about the work itself? Your circular logic is not sufficient, and until you overcome this fallacy, this argument is pretty much over.

    General & Others Is One Piece Overrated, Underrated or Fairly Rated

    So McDonald's is now the best food in town according to your logic? Or that Hitler was the best leader for Germany during his time, right? The popularity of something doesn't correlate to what is simply factual about that thing. We're talking about grading a product for what it is, not how high...

    General & Others Is One Piece Overrated, Underrated or Fairly Rated

    My claims of what One Piece has better or worse than are based on the standards of what writing as a concept is, and what is factually inside the story. If there are no standards or a way to measure what makes One Piece works and what doesn't, then there is no reason to have discussions about...

    General & Others Is One Piece Overrated, Underrated or Fairly Rated

    It's not an opinion on what make One Piece popular. It is just so. And it takes many other factors than simply being a quality product to sell well, marketing for one, and luck in multiple places for another, and that's only the tip of the iceberg. Saying that quality alone will perform well in...

    General & Others Is One Piece Overrated, Underrated or Fairly Rated

    But the sells doesn't totally correlate to the quality of the manga. I can guarantee you that One Piece does not have the best written characters, plot, or world building in the manga format. The things that caught the people's attention is how likable people find the main characters, especially...

    While that's definitely a nitpick, it's rather funny how he never unleashed his roar when he believed to have been the victor in their bouts.

    That's such a fallacy to use in this discussion. Popularity =/= Quality.

    Break Week What sort of "great betrayal" Mihawk could have experienced and why does he and Crocodile "don't trust anyone"

    We'll find out in a SBS. No point of wasting my energy in something that will amount to a fun fact.

    Questions & Mysteries Why no one talks about this World strongest title?

    There isn't much to say other than Kaido being a doctorate in rubber physics is idiotic. The line is hilariously stupid in the context of One Piece. Magellan turned his poison into a goddamn hydra at will, yet I don't see anyone being so perplexed by that. Loda just wanted to justify his shitty...

    This is literally set up for Luffy to defeat Big Meme, and dialogue is one of the most utilized ways to setup stuff. Otherwise how would we understand character motives and plot developments if no one spoke?

    Questions & Mysteries Why no one talks about this World strongest title?

    That rubber line makes no fucking sense. I guess Doffy has also consumed a godly, mythical zoan fruit since strings shouldn't be able to stop radio waves. 1712861346 Back on topic, the reason why no one cares is the same reason why we have no idea why these titles were created in the first...

    Did Lee ever say that One Piece was more horrible than some of the worse written stories of all time? All I remember him stating was that One Piece got more and more horrible, and that Naruto was better. As for the "1/10" gang, maybe they simply think those One Piece chapters are horrible for...

    General & Others Is One Piece Overrated, Underrated or Fairly Rated

    A more apt comparison would be if there was someone saying the story is as bad as the movie "The Room" for evey person that says this shit is comparable to the LoTR books and Odyssey, which is obviously not the case as the latter way outweighs the former, if there even is anyone that actually...

    Break Week Interesting thread i saw on reddit: would you still watch one piece if zoro was a woman? Would it work? What would change in the show?

    At least this would guarantee that the sus crap between Zoro and Sanji would be nonexistent, as Sanji wouldn't clash with Zoro at all and would honestly kill that stupid dynamic they have going on between each other. This alternative would also ensure that the dumb sexism card Tashigi loves...

    Questions & Mysteries G5 works better in the anime

    This is not specifically at you, style, but I find it funny how many people that claim to love how goofy G5 is and strawmanned the critics by stating that the critics just wanted an edgy form are the same people that are extremely hyped with Nika having red, glowing eyes and a malicious grin.

    General & Others It has been a week for me now since I stopped caring about powerscaling and getting triggered by other people's thoughts about my favorite characters

    Lol true, but the overly extreme vagueness and inconsistencies of Haki and power levels of characters being unclear is what make Agenda Piece fun.
