Tbh I took it harder than Oden, Bonney G5, Kinemons survival, or even Dressrosa's dragging.
Once I saw "El Hermano" any hope I had that decades of build up for Shanks were for something interesting instantly evaporated. Shook my trust in Oda's ability to cook stuff he had on the backburner. I...
Likely to be a crew arc considering the signs so far. At least I'm hoping it is because I was already disappointed by Shamrock.
Robin had a whole thing with Saul, and Franky's setting up to have a whole thing with Vegapunk.
Its about neither of those things.
Its nepotism. People pick successors and groom their own replacements.
Because its a manga it just so happens Luffy is talented/hard working in addition to the legendary lineage and assistance by Emperors/Admirals.
Shamrock really deflated any hope I had that Shanks could live up to even 1% of the hype he's received.
Luffy and Shanks no longer need a real conflict to set up fanservice moments like Zoro vs Shanks swordman ship or a hostile Luffy/Shanks Conquerors clash.
Closest to paulie is the weirdo road and he's pretty lame so I wont lump em in with him. For memorable side characters I've got high hopes for !not Vicky and hot Teacher.
Generally Luffy doesn't lie, and lies poorly. For some reason he REALLY got along with Loki, and for once I'm actually at a...
All the pieces for an intercrew conflict are present right now, and we've started strong with Robin/Sauls reunion in terms of character focus. Not all characters will be swept up into it, but tensions are poised to run high.
W7 represented a crisis in confidence in Luffy's leadership and the...
I see Chopper in here like he didn't fight Queen, cure two plagues, block an attack from Big Mom during WCI, and create Mink steriods. Sanji like he didn't get an arc of development, and Robin/Brook like they don't get a good meal from time to time.
Bigger fuck ups have been Dragon, Ussopp...
At the end of the day the Emperors have to resist not only the Navy's admirals, but other Yonko and wannabe's as well.
They don't get no seastone ships, no global tithe of money and men, no organization to introduce them to mentors like Garp.
Admirals on the other hand are the attack dogs of...
Not even going to lie Im fucking annoyed Topman no sold multiple G5 hits. It'd be one thing if he shrugged em off, but Luffys hand hurting with full hardening?! That's better durabilty than the big man kaido
So, like. Its harder to become Pirate King because its a much more complicated and dangerous endeavor than just getting really good with a sword?

not what it seemed like to me when he pulled up to Marineford and then ran away to Crossguild when the WG turned on him.
Mihawk had a black blade and still ended up bowing to the WG because it was easier. Roger on the other hand, did whatever he liked whenever he liked.
Not to mention that there are multiple black blades but only one Pirate King.
Also the direct statement by Mihawk that Pirate King is harder...
I am 100% serious that I do not care about anything that isn't a fight when it comes to the Straw Hat crew. My eyes have been opened and literally no Straw Hat other than Luffy has done anything worth noting this arc! Nothing! Nada! None!
I too don't care that the research done by hundreds of Robins loved ones was preserved by Vegapunk and the Giants! I also don't care that Vegapunk is missing crucial details like who was in the right!
I know Robin might care about these things, but I, a One Piece fan, could not care less!
Just like real life, most people are the top are put there by their births circumstances. I a poor 2nd gen immigrant in the sticks was never going to truly compete with an old money elite born in California. The American dream worked because its endgame was relatively humble and achievable by...
