    Questions & Mysteries Did Sanji actually win the duel against Queen?

    The people around these parts make my head hurt sometimes. May I start by just pointing out that the entire purpose of invisibility is to get sneak attacks on your opponent? Like that’s literally its main combat utility. So in the first place this discussion is as pointless as it gets. If Queen...

    While that’s a fair point, it’s easy enough to point to exceptions in the many countless side characters there are, instead of within the Straw Hat crew and their dynamics. And Zoro just so happens to be a training nut who only thinks about booze, swords and how to get stronger with swords...

    I don’t see what the problem is with what I’m saying. It makes narrative sense for Zoro to be ahead of Sanji simply because the pursuit of strength is the fundamental core of Zoro’s entire character. What am I saying that’s false?

    Sanji’s dream isn’t strength-inclined. He doesn’t need to be as strong as Zoro and he never will be, but he DOES needs to be strong enough to be Luffy’s second pillar of support against any opponent Luffy faces. And soon enough it’ll be the Navy and the WG itself, not just pirate crews. It’s why...

    My thoughts: - what are the chances that Queen gets sent to the Germa Kingdom? I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Queen gets sent flying off the island the same time the Germa cover story begins lmao - This was probably my favourite choreographed fight in the Raid. Zoro’s been a shining...

    Did Oda really cram all that into one chapter…? if the last page is one of them big double page spreads then phew Zoro and Sanji ran the fuck through these Calamities 💀

    More or less how I’ve always imagined it. Zoro will always be ahead of Sanji, and the difference will always be significant enough to make it clear, but not so significant that it’s an utter wash. With that being said, Oda’s portrayal of this has been a two pack of ass up until this arc, with...

    I'm counting on a volume cover or the anime to make Ifrit's color scheme clear, otherwise it's gonna be a SSJ2 situation where the differences don't translate well to black and white lmao. We only really got a good look of it in its intro panel. The next chapter is the final chapter of the...

    I don’t really get why people want Sanji to have CoC so badly lmao, it would feel like a handout power up no matter how you slice it tbh it feels to me as though where Luffy and Zoro are taking the Yonko-esque path of power where they’re Haki powerhouses, Sanji’s taking a more Admiral-esque...

    Hogback was involved in the rescue as well though. Fact of the matter is we don’t know any of the real details behind how they managed to escape with Moria. Invisibility is certainly the best factor, but what would have stopped the Pacifista who were with Doffy from simply raining lasers on the...

    Ehhhhh, CoO isn’t something that’s active all the the time, like it is for Fujitora for example. Katakuri’s already stated you have to be calm and focused to use Observation effectively. Doffy barely even cared about the War’s events to begin with. Not to mention CoO is possibly the most...

    Spoiler One Piece Chapter 1034 Spoilers Discussion

    Yeah I think I underplayed it there. Invisibility is OP in terms of situational utility. But I figured in a fight where you know the enemy has that ability, competent CoO should still help alleviate the issue in a lot of cases. For example I can’t see invisibility being a massive issue for...

    To be fair, between Absalom and his own experience with the Raid Suit, Sanji has a weird amount of practice with dealing with invisibility in general For sure though, anyone with good CoO shouldn’t have that much issue with invisibility to begin with.

    You guys are being a wee bit obtuse I have to say? The “he’s not invisible, he’s just hanging around the ceiling” is a pretty weak argument, especially when it even shows a shot of the entire hall they’re fighting in, ceiling included, and it still looks like there’s utterly nothing there. Even...

    Well, because not everything’s a cock measuring contest perhaps lmao The fight has given Sanji character development, a chance to truly solidify himself as one of the New World’s strongest combatants, even more potential plot relevance because of his possible Lunarian ties and apparently an...

    I had a theory a few weeks back that Sanji’s exoskeleton was going to be necessary to make his body durable enough for whatever his final power up was going to be to defeat Queen, and it looks like I was more or less right. I’ve wanted Sanji to expand on his fire power for longer than it should...
