General & Others Warlord crew discussion : Baroque Works

[Buusatan94]

After thinking back about Oro Jackson and its characters discussion threads and also about the Warlords and their crews I thought that it would be nice to create characters or at least crew discussions threads.

So I decided to make this first Warlord crew discussion about the first organisation led by a Warlord/Schichibukai seen in the series: Baroque Works which was led by Crocodile with the intention of taking over Alabasta and to get the Ancient Weapon Pluton to create a new perfect pirate nation.

What are your thoughts on this organisation ? Do you like this crew ? Your impressions about their fights against the Straw Hats ? Whose member of BW is your favorite ?

The best agents imo are Daz and Miss Double finger
What I like about Daz Bones is his loyalty to his boss but also his fighting style
Miss Doubkefinger has an interesting ability indeed but Croco was the one running the scene
I did like that was did have a bounty hunting organization in one piece

The organisation was a threat and at the same time not really.

Up to Mr.3 the main fighters of the SH were so much above them that it was not really a fight and that can undermine their portrayal.

With Mr.3 things began to be interesting : the guy was strong if not amazingly strong but he was dangerous because of his brain : his candle circus was dangerous and Zoro and co were trapped, the way he tricked the barrels and took out the giants, his candle lock, his wax doubles etc.
I loved too the way he survived through and through.
Obviously Mr.3 became a lot more relevant after.

His partner was also fun with her colors trap and even after she was relevant in the cover story.

A good duo.

Mr.2 : his introduction was really nice. The guy was just thrown in the SH crew and directly befriended them. This quite original for a bad guy to be introduced that way.
His powers were extremely useful to Croco to disturb Alabasta power.
His personality was quite colorful and he was fun to Watch : his dress, his dances etc.
I think he is also the first cross dresser to appear in the story and I think it is quite a ballsy move from Oda to do that.
He was strong enough to prove a good fight for Sanji and his tricks during the fight were fun.
An other original part is the end where he sav d the SH from Hina. Badass moment.

Like Mr.3 he became a lot more important after this arc.
À really good character.

Mr.1 had way less panel time and was really fighting oriented. But his fight with Zoro was awesome, his threat here was very high.
He was relevant after too but less than Mr. 2 and 3.

Miss double finger was nice but she had few panels and was beaten by Nami in a quite gag battle.

The bigger threat in the crew was Robin : the way she "killed" ingaram, she destroyed Pell, she destroyed Tashigi , and she was a mysterious shadow presence behind Crocodile. And in the end she was related to the secret weapons, poneglyphe etc.
Her portrayal during Alabasta was amazing and made her one of the best character.

The billions were just fooders and were fooderized by anyone : Pell, Sanji, Ace, Luffy etc.
