Anime & Manga One Piece Spoilers - The Waiting Room

[BleakAsh]

Me when chapter comes out

Good morning eyes... I could stare at like the stars..

My opinion on this could change, but I will defend lolda here. If Luffy came out of Wano negging everyone while being worshiped as Nika it would not go well with the fans at all and people would complain. Allowing Luffy to have some setbacks isn't the end of the world, and its not like he's been humiliated worse then other Yonko really.

One thing I’ve noticed about Zoro is Oda pretty much never hypetools him

He’ll hypetool Luffy and Sanji

Hell, he’ll even embarrass other Yonko like Big Mom and Blackbeard

But characters like Zoro and Shanks pretty much never get clowned

He did it a lot pre timeskip (Arlong, Buggy, Enel) but I think as Zoros character evolved Oda realized that treating a character who’s entire motivation is strength like that is wildly inappropriate so it’s better to do it to Luffy and Sanji who don’t always go into fights to prove they’re stronger but to protect people.

 

[soupongo]

and Oda holding Luffy back is somewhat exaggerated. Really he just wanted to keep g4 a secret for years,and there was no real strong post time skip villain until Doffy and even he wasn't that strong.

 

[Sir Yasheen]

Tf you mean "wildly stronger haki"? Luffy split the fucking sky and cleared the clouds. Yamato compared that to WB and Roger.

Good for Luffy for being able to do the bare minimum.

 

[WkainuWheWoat]

Don’t worry for you zoro is just watching in shocked

dont bring Zoro into this, we out here clowning Yonkos right now.

 

[Hunter]

Gaban may win round 1, and round 2, perhaps even round 3 against Luffy
But just wait for round 4, Luffy clears

 

[MonochromeYoru]

Very quiet around Zoro. I assume he sits this one out and it makes sense. Oda usually protects him from such clownery

ive always found that ironic lol

zolotards call shank an author's fav and protected all the time (with good reason)

yet their favs zolo and mohawk are also the epitome of the exact same shit

curious

And he also doesnt use to do that because Zoro promised Luffy that he won't be defeated ever again after Baratie

Look at my earlier post I tag you and open thread

 

[Sir Yasheen]

Enel and Arlong were after Baratie and Enel was maybe the most disrespectful

Banana force gag
Castle explosion
Kirin monster

Yea Gaban is cooking something special this chapter

YES Luffys holding back is Cope, what he was talking about is not Luffy 1v1 someone and getting his ass kicked because Oda nerfed him. what Oda was actually talking about is that he place Luffy in bad situation to hold him back like in Water 7 having him stuck between building, skypia having him stuck in a snake and later on a giant gold ball or Dressros having him fight before his main fight. that is what it was talking about not actual combat Power like some say

 

[Etzel Andergast]

Enel and Arlong were after Baratie and Enel was maybe the most disrespectful

But wasnt really a fight. I think Oda meant to be a 1v1

 

[Hako Sama]

If they somehow survive against Zoro + Luffy + Old Legend, holy.
I assume they will teleport to the same spot.
