Hi!
I think men's opinion about One Piece is overrepresented here, so I have three very broad questions
for the women of this forum and I ask kindly that
ONLY WOMEN answer it for once. You can answer them in anyway you want but the more developped the answer, the better:
1 - What do you love in One Piece ?
2 - What are your favorite characters among and outside the strawhats and why ?
3 - How would you make One Piece better ?
Answer the poll so I can see which answers I can take into account. Gentlemen, please, let women have the room here.
Have a fun day !
Ok, I'm female by birth and mostly identify as such, so I hope my response counts.
1 - I like world building and initially I liked the story more when Luffy was more of a self-made dude with immense determination instead of a chosen one he is now, as I don't enjoy "chosen one" plots so much.
Also DF magic system seems cool to me, I love the variety of abilities.
Haki often spoils the fun for me tbh, because it's often hax and does whatever Oda needs it to do, is inconsistent AF and the only good thing it brings is that it allows to counter logias.
2 - currently Sanji is my top SH, followed by Robin, and #3 is shared between Zoro and Nami.
Outside of SHP I like Law, Pudding, Kuzan. There are way too many characters in the story, so I might go on, but those were on the top off my head. The character I dislike the most is Oden, purely because I felt he was being shoved down our throats for being oh so amazing, it led to the opposite effect, I wish his character was never introduced. There are also villains I love to hate, but Oden is just one big "ugh".
3 - fewer side characters, more focus on the main cast. I don't remember when we had a proper fight for every SH like we had prior to the TS. I also miss their between the adventures moments and interactions. Faster and more engaging pace, like in Sakamoto Days or Dandadan. And a little less blue-balling with secret reveal teasing, I mean I understand, there are a lot of uncovered mysteries, but we're in the final or pre-final saga, it's time to start revealing some goodies. Even now I think we won't hear Vegapunk's whole message, and there's also a chance that we'll only see the reactions and not read the message for ourselves, like with Luffy's dream.
Oh, and I wish to see a bit more of Revos now in the story, especially since our main cast is facing the WG BBEGs. But this is something I hope will indeed happen.
