You moronic ass stans act like y’all have had dicks inside you without consent, the way y’all act the fuck out in every thread.

Most of you are grown men that jerk off to a fictional dude with green hair because you’re lames that never got pussy in high school and project power fantasies on fiction.:suresure:

You’re losers with nothing going on and get bent out of shape when you get called out on your weird ass tendencies because hit dogs holler.

None of this is jokes to you, this stan shit is y’all entire identity. You’re like Trumpers that bark woke at everything like it’s a Pavlovian response, only somehow more pathetic as it couldn’t possibly be lower stakes than a fictional rivalry.

You’re grown men in a circlejerk and every one wants the cookie. Losers :suresure:

As far as epithets go I think Oda won't change them. But they'll attain certain titles come the end of the series. Left hand/Wing, Right hand/Wing, WSS, King of Germa(or whatever it'll become, probably a restaurant Kingdom located in the All blue that will feed the world somehow) etc. Pirate hunter is actually a killer epithet since you'd expect it from a Marine or bounty hunter but a pirate that hunts other pirates?. Black leg is as on brand of a pirate epithet as you can get and it parallels Zeffs. Think of these monikers as more character descriptive, it's breaking down not only how they are viewed by the world/enemies but also what they are as fighters. What feelings/thoughts are invoked when you think Black leg and Pirate hunter?. The alternatives I see suggested never really describe more than the most shallow aspects of these characters, they're too on the nose and cliche to be iconic.

I agree with this re: Black Leg but Pirate Hunter does feel a bit too outdated. It'd feel more appropriate for Zoro if he was still on his lonesome as a bounty hunter IMO.

I'm not sure King of Hell is any more befitting tbh though.

Honestly the most iconic thing about Zoro is the three sword style to me, along with his sense of direction and "Nothing Happened".

If he had to get a new epithet it should be based on those aspects but I can't think of anything in that sense.

Sanji will most likely keep the black leg ine to mirror "red leg" Zeff.

Zoro could change, either he gets simply the title WSS or he gets some specific title like Mihawk's clairvoyant or marine hunter if he actually does something of the sort. Good chances he get the same as Ryuma aka sword god. Yet the best nickname Zoro will ever get is the minority hunter one.

If there was going to be a rebranding then the three swords route would make the most sense. I mean you can say something like 三面刃 (Sanmenba), meaning "Three-faced blade". It works in a couple ways, first we have the obvious reference to his three sword style and the different forms/faces of it, one swords, two sword and three sword, but also the demon connotation with 面 which can be used to reference a multi headed demonic figure like Ashura, as well as him having three faces when he uses Ashura. But I don't know if that's as iconic as Pirate hunter.

Oh, that's pretty good! It'd make for a great "alternate" epithet.

But I agree, Pirate Hunter is too simple and iconic.

The issue I think is that it just doesn't fit because Zoro doesn't really, say, split off from the crew to go defeat pirates on his own every so often.

Which is something I think Oda should have done with him occasionally. It would lampshade that there are other swordsmen trying to be the WSS, if Zoro occasionally hunted down top-level pirate swordsmen to fight them too.
