General & Others I’m unable to comprehend the narrative purpose of making Rocks this OP
- Thread starter S.W317
- Start date
At some point in the story Oda decided to give Roger a narrative "protagonist" status.
Roger is the protagonist of his era and Oda falls back to this era quite frequently, especially post timeskip.
Because of that it makes sense to have Rocks be this strong, so we can follow the struggles of the old era against Rocks.
Rocks will also serve as an inspiration for one of the main antagonists/main rivals in the series.
It kinda makes sense to me, even if he is dead.

Oda is aware that Roger has practically zero wins over anyone relevant.
He never beat Whitebeard, he dodged both Big Mom and Kaido on their islands, he was saved from Shiki by a storm and didn't finish his fight with Oden.
The guy's a bum, Oda know he needs a relevant victory. I just hope he doesn't have to tag team with Garp to do it because that's gonna be sad.
