Yes. He’s too haughty…but mostly it’s because it’s a useless plot device otherwise. Who could she then fool?

Again, the Marines don’t know that. Would be pretty pointless for Devon if that were the case. She would have a higher bounty than all the rest too….maybe even BB, like Mihawk higher than Buggy.

None of that is beyond a 3.99 billion pirate. It’s like saying Shanks would get a bounty increase if he came across Weevil and crushed him. Kuzan will get around a 3 billion bounty for the Garp stuff, but it has little to do with Blackbeard. Only Saturn knows about Devon touching him (and the...

That was Kuzan (BB was busy with Law). Oda being Oda, he also had it that Garp’s fate is “unknown.” BB being at 3.99 bil indicates that such a thing would be expected of him anyway.

They weren’t there at the origin of the WG 800 years ago, but they were already old by God Valley. Recognizing the robot implies that they all fall somewhere between that range. If you want to be literal with the speech they gave in Wano, “centuries” implies at least 200 years old, but not as...

It’s pretty silly when Vegapunk wouldn’t even call out the government directly. Having him admit to being vague doesn’t excuse the pointlessness.

Unless that already happened for the BBP during Egghead, then the Strawhats would have bigger bounties rn which Oda won’t allow.

No increases. The Strawhats aren’t going to face the BB pirates with higher bounties. Besides that, they didn’t defeat anyone anyway.

If it were English, “Monkey” would make sense for the Monkey D family. Oda’s teasing at this point is just exasperating.

No one seems to be mentioning it, but Nusjuro seems to have given up on getting Bonney. :shame:

Only if they are morons at this point would they not understand that the guy stretching his body all over the place is Joyboy. Oda having Vegapunk be vague about such things is just silly.

Not really. Fire is a dime a dozen in the series. Magma is still the pinnacle when it comes to heat. Venus is more of like Brook. The ice is incidental to his swordsmanship, and nowhere near Aokiji’s scale Jupiter’s suck ain’t pulling in a meteor from space. The rest don’t even match.

Just Haki wizard things

That doesn’t really make sense. Why would the future change when you throw a punch but not when you try to dodge an attack? That’s arbitrary. Both attacking or defending require planning. Likewise, knowing where your opponent is going to move makes it easier to land attacks. In fact, that’s the...

Katakuri should still be faster than pre FS Luffy. He should be able to tell which way he would move and hit him anyway. He was reacting to the even faster Snakeman after all. There’s no reason that it should work for dodging but not attacking. It’s just seeing several seconds into the future...

It’s because it’s an inconsistent plot device. People trying to over-analyze it in powerscaling fashion are just wasting their time. There’s no definite indicator of when it’s being used besides a character outright saying it, and it will always be subject to plot. Oda would never have the likes...

This is Oda at his worst

It’s truly tragic. What a damn waste.

Based on the stereotypical definition, then Akainu. Aokiji is too wavering, Kizaru is not as serious, Fujitora is too reluctant and “dumping”, and Greenbull is too dramatic.

Oda not clarifying that is part of why Wano sucked.
