General & Others Are you ok with the Nepotism in One Piece?

[NicoRobinIsQueen]

How is it nepotism? Nepotism is raising children and giving them status, what father has raised their son? Not genetically modeling their son or beating them or fucking putting your soul into your son

Its not, not at all

Manifest destiny or faith would be the more accurate term

 

[NicoRobinIsQueen]

It's more like selfish fathers wanting their children to be like them, be them, or just abandoning their children, look at most of fathers and moms in one piiece, they're either dead abandoned their children, or genetically altered their kids

 

[Aknolagon]

I mean. THE ENTIRE SHOW IS about inherited will. 😶😶.

And why tf zoro is here. Ryuma is last descendent he had who was actually strong.

Pinzoro, Furiko, Arashi are top tiers what you mean

Ryuma is an ancestor from 500 years ago but hey nepotism

 

[NicoRobinIsQueen]

Also, for zoro, it's like me being related to an ancient king from 400 years ago, it doesn't effect me at all, that dude is dead and doesn't even have anything anymore

 

[Zaretball]

It's a bit shit

 

[GeneralP123]

The most recent ones I generally enjoy. Rocks somehow had more character in two panels than Dragon in 20 years.

I'll go a step above that, He's a better pirate than Roger even though he appeared in only two chapters so far, he's so much cooler.

 

[BattalGazi]

A son of a phoenix will be a phoenix and a son of a frog will be frog, that is just a rule of life and genetics so just accept reality.

 

[GeneralP123]

It's not even nepotism, considering 99.9% of the characters had to work their ass off to get to power, some of them even got a more difficult life just because of who their father/mother is.

That's what one piece is, uour not gonna have a good life just cause your royal

 

[GeneralP123]

Yeah, this should be renamed to "Do you enjoy the fact that many old gen characters are related to current gen characters?"

Yes, but also it’s kinda easy to be more likeable than Roger

 

[Peroroncino]

Putting In Zoro's random ass bums family but not Sanji literal test tube baby family.
I see the agenda

 

[Midnight Delight]

The Brook and Franky stuff crossed the line if Queen truly is Franky's dad tbh

It's kind of weird that we got to the point that Only Nami doesn't have some powerful Bloodline

 

[GeneralP123]

Yes, but also it’s kinda easy to be more likeable than Roger

Couldn't agree more, always disliked almost everything about him, his life is full of fraudulent behavior.

His over hyped death pales in comparison to Whitebeard's death, Roger just let fodder marines execute him like a dog, Whitebeard fought everyone while being in the worst shape of his life and died standing like a boss.

However, I really started hating Roger ever since I realized he teamed up with marines of all people to take down his biggest rival.

“Random bum family” He’s the descendant of the Sword God

One of the strongest swordsman of all time if not the strongest is his ancestor lol

He also just so happens to be a spitting image of him according to the scabbards

Nami and Chopper are randoms. Zoro is not

Sanji (obviously) isn’t either though

Yeah and so were they.
How did that help them?

Did I say Zoro was carried by genetics? No

All I’m saying is he’s far from a random

Even if you take away the Ryuma connection (which is a major one, he’s 1 of 2 current forgers of a black blade with Zoro soon to be the 3rd) he’s still a Shimotsuki

He isn’t a random

Just like Franky isn’t a random since he’s Queen’s son. Being related to a reputable figure/family means you aren’t a random

Whitebeard is a random

Then that's one more reason why they don't need to be there in place of the germs that literally gives you super powers

 

[Welkin]

Then that's one more reason why they don't need to be there in place of the germs that literally gives you super powers

But then there’s no reason to put almost anyone there

Germa isn’t strong because of their Vinsmoke genetics they’re strong because of scientific altering. Judge is a Vinsmoke and his strength stems from the raid suit he has on since he was born a normal human

What did Luffy inherit from Dragon or Garp? It’s already been confirmed that Garp’s insane strength wasn’t granted to him at birth but came from training

The only character that really can say their strength comes from their raw genetics is Loki and maybe Blackbeard (since he can eat 2 fruits and maybe Xebec had the same ability)
