I said no such thing, I was talking about parties in the series, participants or actors.
You single out Vegapunk from everyone, no matter how shady, vicious or more directly responsible they are. Which is very ridiculous.



You interpreting something is not an "objective truth". Oda can have people die for all kinds of reasons, like wanting a certain quota of deaths per arc (this is a topic that has come up for Wano too).
Incidentally, he was killed by Saturn (!) because he betrayed the WG and Marines to protect Bonney (in a scenario which he predicted with empathy). Bonney herself said her target is someone else...
And you know what? He will mostly survive. 🙀



Bad scientist dude must die super hard, even if Marines or WG are more responsible (but don't necessarily need to die)...
Yes, Vegaskunk I single out in particular because he's a "good" guy doing morally dubious stuff for the Government, under the pretext of his scientific greed. Needless to say why such a character needs redemption - even he knows what he's doing is wrong.

Oda can have people die for all kinds of reasons, but redemption is the reason here. And since he's very sparse at killing, his deaths are mostly for a significant reason.

Ya, he will most likely survive because it's One Piece, but from a literary perspective he should die, and Oda knows this as well, hence Vegaskunk's line about dying.

Did I at any point say that others shouldn't die? I'm discussing what happened in the current chapter, get on with the times
 
Two things I am curious about in reference to Sanji:
1. Did the Vegapunk boots play any part when Sanji deflected the laser? I mean, the boots seem to have a number of different abilities, and Vegapunk has tech that allows one to physically interact with light.
2. Is it possible that the boots (as well as any other Vegapunk tech) are interacting with Sanji's genetic modifications, since Vegapunk and Judge have worked together in the past? It would be interesting if it was unintentional.

I apologize if these questions have been addressed already--there's been so much information in this arc, it's difficult to remember everything.

Also, the best part of this chapter was the end with the Blackbeard Pirates. I look forward to the chaos Devon-as-Saturn will cause.
 
Zoro is simply held to higher standards than other characters (within the fanbase). Obviously this is not helped by some outlandish claims that some of his more delusional fans make, but it is what it is, I guess.

You would think Zoro was the current WSC with the things people will mock him for doing/not doing

“Scientific greed”, so you think there is something intrinsically bad or shady about scientific research. Otherwise his stuff has only become “morally dubious” in the hands of the WG or the standard for his “greed” was only set by the WG or Saturn himself (for their immoral reasons). And for him it was only for idealistic reasons or the benefit of mankind (making their lives easier).

Bonney saw that he wasn’t really at fault, and Vegapunk protested against what he thought was wrong in advance, again, he and Kuma both agreed to a deal with naive illusions. Even so, VP took precautions.
It's like you are protesting at Oda's own portrayal of it.

There is a particular focus on this topic, one would expect some rant against this darstardly Kizaru, for example, who is consistently trying to murder Kuma and Bonney and whoever, although he barely needs to fear for his own life (compared to others). But it would be out of place with the general reception of characters in general.

The concepts of cloning a person or turning someone into a robot are historically viewed as unethical and morally wrong. That particular research is considered bad. No matter how idealistic he was about it at the start, even he notices the harm it does. And so, he sees himself as a fit sacrifice now, as he should.

Voicing something is wrong doesn't cancel out doing it anyways, that is why he needs redemption :kaidowhat:

Kizaru is really just standing around but ultimately doing nothing. He would need to do something very bad to be looked at as villainous or evil, but sadly so far this ain't it :feelscryingman:
@Natalija you do realize that death by redemption is weak writing. How about a character actually changing and purposely making a path towards redemption. However, OP is for kids so death through redemption is possible.
He's a random side character, there won't be any time for something like that.

Vegapunk is obsessed with science but he is realizing his mistakes and ultimately his humanity seems to be winning. Kizaru is the opposite, he may be capable of feeling emotional attachment to others but ultimately succumbs to his spinelessness and lack of self respect .
