Speculations What kind of development are you expecting for Akainu?

#61
He didn't have to choose between the World Government and Luffy. He had every license to let them go.

The point is, when it came down to it, he chose the WG over his own family twice.

Ace's death changed him, but too little too late.
Actually,letting pirates get away against orders is called treason....

This is you injecting a lot of headcanon into the dynamic and expecting me to see it the same way.

Degrees matter. Garp is much more insubordinate than Kizaru, that is not a matter of debate, that's just what it is.

Kizaru is a true believer, just not as much as Akainu, but enough to tolerate his eccentricities. What rules is Akainu even aware of Kizaru breaking?

Garp's rulebreaking isn't the issue so much as the attitude he has and the threat he poses by spreading that to others. Kizaru doesn't match his legend or reputation. He isn't raising future generations of Marines. The most Akainu has to put up with - to his knowledge - is the guy being a little annoying.
I see where you’re getting at , they aren’t exactly alike but have similar parallels in a sense.

Murder is linked to illegal killing , Akainu never killed anybody outside of strict principles and honor therefore he’s not a murderer.

He spared Kuzan (insanity because kuzan wouldn’t had spared him)
He understood Kizaru

I guess we’re gonna get a full fledged establishment of his relationships with his peers showing that he indeed still has those he cares about and that he is human.

also a backstory of dragon or why he hates piracy.
Kuzan isn't a murderer either. I really doubt he would off a defeated Sakazuki.

I don’t doubt that shit at all , I believe Kuzan has always disliked Sakazuki since the earliest times we’ve seen them in ohara, I firmly believe if Kuzan was the one who’d win we would’ve had a dead Sakazuki I don’t see him sparing Akainu at all.

Yes I think he will be too far gone to change, I think it’s obvious he experienced something unforgivable at the hands of pirates, we’ll see his up bringing and the things that drive his ideals to the point where he’s willing to murder innocents over. I also kinda hope that theory about Hibari being his daughter ends up being true is like to see that side of him actually having something he dearly wants to protect, I think Oda already has been laying the groundwork for humanizing the character (not redeeming) and it makes him more compelling to me.

Luzan would just chill out as Akainu bled to death lmao nah

Character wise ? I expect him to stay the same.

It's been made clear what kind of a man he is. He won't hesitate to burn a child, an old man or whoever crosses his path if his orders are to kill them.

He'll go even further by killing anybody that he suspects could be a danger for the WG. No order needed here, just a feeling.

And I think that's why he's a good villain. He doesn't give a fuck about moral or honor as long as he's fighting pirates or enemies of the WG. They have to die.

The honor comes from him taking his job to the absolute.

GB and Fujitora got their backstories in the SBS, which strongly implies that Oda isn't planning on divulging them in the main story

We got Kizaru, Aokiji backstories completely new without SBS summary. I'm pretty sure we are going to get Akainu backstory in full given the trend

"Muhhhhhhh I hate pirates, I'm going to eradicate them all from the face of the earth uahhhhhhh"

2 years later:

"Fujitora, I think it was a mistake to abolish the shichibukais who didn't even obey us and did whatever they wanted"
:Rofl::Rofl::Rofl:
