Kaido was late series filler without high plot importance. He played the role of strong character the mc had to beat to enter the big leagues with the real endgame cast. Oda didn’t even have a design planned for him during enies lobby, and his characterization has been shallow. I’m not denying...

+100 to all of these, practically have nothing to add.

Definitely not wista

Yes, he’s annoying for different reasons.

No Will of D, no special bloodline, no prophecy driving his life. Honestly I'd welcome him not having conqueror's. (though he will)

Yep, well said, all of it. The "goofy, carefree" characters have no consequences, neither in-verse nor by the fanbase. The rest is basically the reverse of what yonko fans, especially shanks fans seem to enjoy, "chosen" "conquerors" with the special ability to punch especially hard (because to...

You say that like it’s a bad thing. Yes, garp and Koby are among my least my favorite characters, sengoku I’m indifferent about. Garp is an incredibly poorly conceived character, just about everything about him is fanservicey and inconsistent. You don’t get to both fit the archetype of “fun...

How does this thread have any traction? It’s too generous to even call it head canon, it’s literally a fan fic.

I can just completely make something up about kaido holding hostages to deal with a difficult opponent, oh wait, that’s actually canon.

Koby is easily one of my least favorite characters and I strongly dislike his arc. But I won’t deny that this is likely, the power level for sure. It was in the stars as soon as he demonstrated strong coo in the hospital.

I’m kind of surprised that shanks fans are celebrating this. Snitch memes aside, it actually being him who spoke with the gorosei and/or who teleported onto elbaph would make his character a lot more interesting and complex. And even more plot relevant. Which is precisely why I don’t think oda...

We all know what’s going on at a meta level, oda comes up with some high level idea of a character or plot point, drops a silhouette, and then retroactively comes up with some explanation years later.

That’d explain why it’s been reserved for jobbers thus far.

All in a day's work.

It’s special enough. If it’s a highly valuable skill, you’d expect at least a couple of living people to have it, not just one. Mihawk being the only one risks its relevance. This development mostly helps his portrayal, I again don’t get why it bothers y’all so much.

Greenbull negotiated /tricked weevil rather than neg diffing him is still a very common take. I thought the invisible handcuffs was some silly meme too, but no, people legit believe it.

It's not about "want." GB's sword's visual design matches known black blades perfectly. Personally I acknowledge that that only helps Mihawk, most importantly because it demonstrates at least one other living person besides his disciple in the op-verse actually gives a crap about it. It's always...

The only correct answer. :vistalaugh:

Unironically this sounds like the case. Aramaki was a zealot on the side of law enforcement/justice
