Character Discussion Luffy doesn’t get the respect that he deserves!

#1
Why is it that people want to see Luffy fail or just hate on him?

People always complain about Luffy getting help in important battles but never even mention the villains getting help. I’ll give a few examples:

1. When Luffy fought Katakuri people complained that he got help from Brûlée and was able to run away and restore his haki. Okay great but why doesn’t anyone talk about the help Katakuri got? Flampe and some other fodder were literally shooting silent needles at Luffy while he was dodging Katakuris attacks which were based on his future movements and dodging the needles. That’s literally the only reason that he got stabbed. Katakuri also was able to restore his haki when Luffy left so I don’t see the big deal.

2. People said Luffy got help from Law and Gatz against Doflamingo as if Trebol and Bellamy weren’t there. If anything that was a 3 v. 2 with Doffy getting more help than Luffy. Gatz helped Luffy run away yet Oda said Luffy could run away on his own. He also said Luffy would have defeated Doffy still without the help. I never understood the complaints. Luffy also showed clear superiority to Doffy in G4 1v1.

3. People complain about Luffy v. Kaido not being 1v1 which I understand but it’s still utterly ridiculous. Kaido fought the scabbards who didn’t do any significant damage. He fought (Luffy, Law, Kidd, Killer and Zoro) but he did have help from Big Mom and the only people who did any significant damage were Luffy and Zoro. After that Yamato probably did a little damage but Luffy made her leave the fight and blue scarf interfered getting Luffy killed. So it’s not like Kaido didn’t have help. Kaidos help actually lead to Luffys death, awakening and Kaido getting his ass whooped. I’ll concede that the other fights might have tired Kaido out though. But I don’t want to hear anything about lifting the island draining his stamina nobody told him to do that and we don’t know if it drains him or not. If it does he should have put the island down.

Moral of the story is people pray on Luffys downfall and I don’t understand it. We know he will always win in the end.

Only losers at life who lack any achievements, lack education and money and are depressed because of it dislike him because he is God like. Never quits, never gives up, takes all the Ws unlike the bitchass losers here.

First of all kata injured himself the moment he realized something was off.
Kata was out of haki? He never ran out of it. luffy did. It's the biggest drawback of luffy gear 4 can't go more than 10 mins and apparently thing is canon to current manga.
Luffy ran away mid fight is something shouldn't be defended. I won't even call that a strategic retreat. Bro went blindly to fight someone out of his league and ran away mid fight.

2. People said Luffy got help from Law and Gatz against Doflamingo as if Trebol and Bellamy weren’t there. If anything that was a 3 v. 2 with Doffy getting more help than Luffy.

Who tf gave this arguement? Also In fight with doflamingo luffy ran away again.

Even if oda comes himself and says luffy vs kaido was 1v1 no one would believe.
There are many instances which literally tells Kaido kept throughout the raid and didn't fall even once.
Not to forget Yamato herself stated kaido being exhausted from fighting for prolonged time and lifting the island itself.
Where as for luffy. in start of rooftop. he ran out of haki again and probably would have ran away again if Zoro wasn't there. Second time kaido threw him down the sea when he was alone. third time doesn't matter mr go was there or not it doesn't changes the conlusion of that collision luffy was bound to die over there. luffy himself said it's his last g4 and won't last longer and kaido could have tanked what g4 had to offer and killed him afterwards.

and then magical awakening. bro came back from death. Like law and kidd awakening takes their stamina away from them luffy awakening ends up healing him. such an asspull move. it was never 1v1. every 1v1 with kaido luffy has lost. against g5 it's wasn't 1v1 either. kaido was definately exhausted by the end.
Moral of the story is people pray on Luffys downfall and I don’t understand it. We know he will always win in the end.
moral? Yo your rubber boy dies , runs away mid fight? is winning by Running away mid fight , dieing mid fight and reviving somehow declares you as a victor? of course anyone could win if they plot armour as thick as Luffy.

Lmao @ acting like Flampe was there to help Katakuri and not just a plot tool for Kat to stab and weaken himself because Luffy couldn't land shit, even the prior boundman attacks were thanks to merienda. Legit over half the damage in that fight was thanks to Katakuri himself. Gift after gift for Luffy.

Fought against a Doffy who was barely holding his organs together, and still needed the entire town to protect him despite using an entire round of G4.

Luffy is hard to root for when the author has to hold is hand through every major battle. Dude has like 1 clean victory (Lucci) since he entered the grand line. That's embarrassing.

I get it, he fights guys way stronger than himself, he needs his hand held, but then Luffy fanboys love to ignore all context and act like Luffy is stronger because he "won" with a truckload of plot armour. It's no wonder people got tired of this routine a long time ago.



Imagine stanning the MC with infinite panel time and plot armour yet still making feats up for him lmfao. Shameless behaviour.

Wo what is Katakuri injured himself he should have took the needles to. Also I never said he ran out of haki I said he restored what he lost. Are you going to say Katakuri didn’t have help? Luffy also left to restore his haki he came back and figured out his ability. I respect him regrouping and using his brain in the fight.

Once again I don’t care about Luffy running to regain his haki? That doesn’t make him look bad to me. All Doffy did was stall when Luffy used gear 4 because he couldn’t do anything like Luffy said he wouldn’t be able to.

Awakening is normal I a lot of Devil Fruit users have it. Mr go definitely changed the fight the battle was equal until he got there. Of course he would have ran to restore his haki I don’t get why you keep saying that it literally doesn’t negate anything that I said.

What feats did I make up? Kaido was a clean victory I don’t see any plot armor there. Katakuri stabbing himself doesn’t negate the fact that Flampe is the only reason Luffy was stabbed. Katakuri didn’t take the needles did he. He had help rather you want to admit it or not. The Merienda is Katakuris own fault why should that matter to me in the slightest?

He didn’t hold his hand through the Kaido or Doffy fight. Luffy gets his ass whooped over and over and keeps coming back stronger no matter what he’s fearless and that’s what I love about him. I don’t care about him losing a fight I actually enjoy it.

Luffy literally fought Doflamingo at postsurgery state. That's not a good look for the Shonen protagonist to have the arc boss that crippled and still needing outside help even with his strongest form.

The issue is that Oda can't draw long fights
Who will be entertained to watch a fight who last for several days ?
Because If Oda was consistent each of Luffy's fight should last at least 3 days
Jinbe vs Ace 5 days
WB vs Roger 3 days
Aokiji vs Akainu 10 days
BM vs Kaido 3 days

So Oda shortened SH's fights as he did in MF. It's not that Luffy needs help it's just that they don't have time (12hr in WCI, 1h in DR, a night on Onigashima)

Also people always undervalue Luffy because they put their scaling above everything
Thus After each arc they still put Luffy under the arc villain.
Everytime they are proven wrong because Luffy fights someone far stronger the next arc

1. Luffy vs Katakuri - Luffy constantly running away because g4 was running out. And luffy only won because katakuri stabbed himself with a fatal wound and had a complete change in his character.

2. Luffy vs Doffy - Doffy was crippled to hell yet luffy still needed the entire country to slow Doffy down while he replenished his haki cause gear 4 wasn’t enough

3. Luffy vs Kaido was a joke

All of luffys new world fights have been abysmal. Hell the only times luffy won a clean one v one in the new world was in the Caesar rematch and when fighting pointless fodder.

Yeah he’s hard to Root for cause you know he’s going to get his ass kicked next time we see an arc villain
 
#12
1. Bellamy is a fodder, Trebol just stand there uselessly until Oda must get rid of him the most random and effortless way so that Goofy and Law conserve strength again Dof. And even that, they need help of a whole country to win.
2. Katakuri stabbed himself because of that, what's your point ?
3. Really ?:seriously:
 
#16
So what Luffy was damaged for letting Bellamy attack him, fighting in the colosseum and he fought his way there. Neither character was fresh.
You think a gut punch luffy tried to block using haki = Having your organs destroyed by Law…

And Luffy spent a lot of the time on the colosseum riding a bull. The only person he really fought was Chinjao.

Yeah I don’t want to hear any complaints from a Sanji fan if you like Sanjis fights you shouldn’t have any complaints about Luffys. Sanji ran from Queen for a terrible reason and you love the Queen fight. But you have a problem with Luffy running to regain his power? That’s ridiculous.

Also Luffy wouldn’t have gotten stabbed if Katakuri didn’t have help what don’t you understand?

Oda literally said Luffy would have found away to beat Doffy. Luffy was clearly superior.

Luffy vs Kaido was actually a great fight but you can have your opinion.

Despite all of the hatred you’re spewing Luffy is still a Yonko though. I don’t understand the how you make every excuse for Sanji but hate on Luffy.

Comparing Bellamy to law is insane ngl, goofy fans are on their way to surpass lanji fan:endthis:
Doffy repairs himself Luffy didn’t I don’t care who was more damaged Luffy won was legitimate. Oda himself said it what more don’t want?

No I obviously know Laws attack did more damage but a lot of the damage was mitigated by Doffy fruit. Also my point is Doffy had help just like Luffy.
