General & Others Oda admitting he turned Chopper into a merchandize mascot in his latest interview. At least he is honest.

My little boy is not a puppet

Chopper was so cool and was so well written....its not fair lol.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

Oda doesn't care that much about Zoro

"After hearing the anime voice" is the part a lot of you guys are ignoring. The anime arc for Drum Island began in 2001. The manga wasn't even out of Alabasta.

 

[Shiroyru]

Still i think Chopper surpassed expectations in Wano, he had decent moments, especially given his record

You must’ve had some very low expectations

 

[vikas]

I guess now we can remove chopper from polls where characters and SHs and required.

Confirmed Goofy piece as well. "I just want the fights to be fun." What a joke

He is a bad writer man.....No matter what direction he takes he should be true to the world/character he has created so far. IDK how writers think but I can't imagine ruining a character because of something superficial like VS was cute. ...In the end it was external influence not his own thoughts.

Yeah it's not just about defeating someone. He negated Queen's virus, fought him and Peros that's more than enough for him, I take that over the Nami/Usopp garbage any day

No, eating smaller shits doesn't mean you are not eating shit anymore.

LoL yeah, put Usopp or Nami there and they are dead


Even if Queen was just clowning Chopper there, theres no way Nami and Usopp would be able to do as good as he did

Poor Chopper fans

Gosh at least still writes Mitsuhiro nicely

 

[OnePiss]

Chopper going back to his Ennies Lobby self when

Leave my little boy alone

It’s not some secret to hide lol

“I wish I could make the characters of my manga, ostensibly a story about personal freedom and expression in the face of a global autocracy, do Flintstones shit at all times, THAT is the true soul of animation.”
-Eiichiro Oda; quoted in 2022, incredibly enough

Yaba daba fucking doo

Critics: Chopper has become merchandize mascot.
Fanboys: No he hasn't. Chopper was always an integral part of the story and he hasn't become merchandize.
Oda: Yes, I made Chopper a merchandize mascot.
Critics: Oda admitted he made Chopper a merchandize mascot.
Fanboys: Duh, this was always obvious.

Chopperbros what is this?

When do a man's dreams die?

When his design is changed for marketing purposes /s

We already knew that when Oda decided to pretend Chopper was always part of this "weak trio" when preskip portrayal says otherwise.

Reminds me of an argument I got into with someone insisting Chopper being in the weak trio is totally not at all a contradiction to his preskip portrayal.

Preskip Oda would've had Chopper maul Who's-Who while giving Jimbei to Jack.
