1. Kid apparently has no conscious control, stop mentioning him alongside Luffy by himself.

2. We have never seen select bursts. Haohshoku doesn't pick out only enemies on a completely full battlefield, it has only worked when surrounded or when the user doesn't care.

3. It's pointless for Luffy to do by himself, because one Yonko alone cancels out his effort at the minimum. He would need help from at least two of the other three, but there's zero reason to believe that they have the control to cancel out the two Yonko.

4. Not all Beasts are created equally. Just because Izo can get hurt while underestimating some of them doesn't mean that a separate group can't have some who are vulnerable to even an amateur burst.

1. It is true that we never saw Kid using it at manga but is also not true to say he doesn't have conscious control.

2. This is a completely lie. Luffy showed this pretty well at Fishmen Island when he knocked only enemy fishmen near him. I bet his CoC could probably knock Usopp and Nami at least, if not Chopper, Robin and even Brook too. And again at Udon he didn't knocked Hyogoro, I bet he could knock him out. Also we saw how simply using ACoC is also a CoC release so Big Mom using ACoC on Page One near Tama... You will argue that Tama is strong enough to survive CoC from BM?

3. What you are talking about here?

4. Beast Pirate were pretty well separated by Oda. There are Gifters, Pleasures and Waiters. We also have Tobiroppo, Calamities and those Superstars like Hawkins. Not forgetting Numbers and Apoo that is taking care of them. We can also include Yamato on them. If there was a group of elite fodders he would have mentioned. And even if he does later, it still doesn't explain why they didn't knocked out the weak fodders before. Izou fought the elite fodders? Okay, what about the weak ones? Why nobody used CoC on them?

All those attacks did damage. Some people ignore that to further their agenda.

Not agenda. Oda stablished like that. If G4 attacks didn't worked why Scabbards attacks would? Or at least Law stones and Kid's WWE moves. I can still understand cuts doing really minimal damage to him. But Law stones and Kid's WWE moves were too much.

So people have already realized that Oda knows what the community are talking and their feelings regards what is happening right now. And he is trying to do something to explain or relief the tension. But he just suck at it.

So this chapter 1038:

Law's awakening at least for me doesn't make sense since which seems to work exactly like Gamma Knife. You have to be closer to opponent to land it. Now Oda made his awakening like a ranged attack so it seems like a true power up.

Kid's lack of attack diversity (many Punk Gibsons) are getting worked on. Although they still seem boring AF.

The big question, why Luffy and Kid didn't ran out over Onigashima dropping everybody with CoC? Kind of answered by Izou fight. Even fodders from Beast Pirates are strong. Huge L for anime that showed Zoro (and correct me if I'm right but Kid too) knocking them out with CoC.

Not only that but Oda is finally killing fodders. Although it sucks for them to be killed by fire and not by battle.

Back at WCI, early Wano and King vs Zoro we though that some people could only be hurt by a specific type of damage, and now Oda is trying to tell use that this doesn't exist. Which means we have to take in consideration every fight Kaido had before this 1v1 with Luffy. All Scabbards did damage to him, Law's "haki" stones, Kid's WWE moves, Killer's sounds attacks, Zoro's not releasing enough haki from Enma, Luffy's G4 attacks, Momonosuke's bite and so on.

Please tell me more things that community talked a lot and Oda kind of answered at manga later on.

He said he did not watch Youtube videos for OP, so I assume he does not look at what people say very often. He said he did not want to ruin his vision if other people "predicted" it.

So this is about theory videos, doesn't exactly stops him to read tweets for example. Or having someone to tell him the overview about community.

Maybe is not what Oda really wants but his editors saying "Kid sucks. Makes him stronger or something."

 

[Kuroemon]

I think Kidd awakening is pretty good, like even the iron bar have souls, they still got succed by the magnetism Kidd has.. (although i agree it's boring, it's like same attack over and over again, but bigger)

His awakening has nothing to do with him pulling BM's homies that are metal like. I don't know why people are even pointing that out is only obvious for Kid to do that. He had already done that with his awakening with Napoleon getting attached to BM.

But his awakening sucks. Have you read the chapter? Do you realize he needs Law to save him from his own awakening?

 

[draganax]

zoro literally said in the beginning of the raid that kaido's troops are powerful "their skill runs deep", then proceeded to single-handedly low dif 500 gifter in 2 minutes.

izo is just trash.

This isn’t a thing. In the manga Luffy has knocked out like dozens of Beast pirates… Zoro has too… it’s only kid who hasn’t… so maybe the beast pirate are too strong for Kid but not Luffy and Zoro

Who cares what the community wants? This is just a One-Man's Book, not a Live Service
People either like & follow it, or hate it & move on

You people are applying Video Games Logic on Books

You are talking about Luffy using his CoC after getting one-shotted by Kaido right?
Yes I almost forgot that. But then... why he didn't used that at raid? He lost time fighting fodders instead of using CoC. This is garbage. Why introduce a power that you almost never use.

 

[Pooth]

Wano is disasterclass
Wano is a disasterpiece
Wano is Woe Tale

If you have not noticed oda doesnt care about the quality of op. all he cares about is enlogating this manga so he can feel validated and make profit for himself and shonen jump.

Keep deluding yourself though.

Luffy also used CoC in Udon multiple times to knock out fodder… And when Kaido and Luffy split the sky, a bunch of fodder got knocked out

the reason no one is using CoC is because Oda doesn’t want them to use it… That’s all… Oda wants the number of fodder to matter on both sides so that the war can be about how much fodder is going where… But in reality, Half of all the fodder in both sides would’ve been knocked out at the start of all this if Oda wanted it so

it’s Oda doing this… that’s all

Zoro literally saved the day

Imagine if this arc didn't feature him, how much of a failure would have it stood like :cheers:

There was so much better ways to handle the fodders. Just take them out of Onigashima and invade Wano and then the outnumbered Samurai would be there to try to protect. Then have Usopp doing really something against those fodders instead of endless running around Onigashima.

This thread aged well. Oda is looking at the audiences using Omnipotent eyesight of the God.

When folks are trashing on Sanji......

This happens:

It's almost as if Oda hates Sanji haters to the bone.....
