Questions & Mysteries What was the most pointless plot point in One Piede
- Thread starter Donquixote Shivercalero
- Start date
the thing i hate about this is that oda always makes it so someone else does it because the other character needs to be taught a lesson to not just attack people due to wanting revenge for someone, but the motive is always revenge no matter what
for example, carrot couldn't defeat perospero because "it's bad to just attack blindly based off revenge" but nekomamushi could defeat him for the exact same fucking reason that carrot wanted to kill him?
same for jack too. these fights were clearly framed as revenge for how badly perospero and jack treated the minks, and it's clear that oda only favors nekomamushi defeating perospero and inuarashi defeating jack over carrot and wanda defeating perospero because he can't fathom the idea of a female character actually doing something noteworthy.
i don't hate oda's writing completely, but god he frustrates me. especially since them defeating perospero would be the PERFECT REASON FOR HER TO BE NOMINATED AS THE NEW QUEEN OF ZOU!!!! WHY IS A TEENAGE GIRL WHO DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING THE QUEEN??? SHE DIDN'T EVEN KILL THE MAN WHO TOOK OUT PEDRO!!
