Character Discussion Who has progressed the most as a character ? Who has regressed the most ?

[Buusatan94]

Who amongst OP characters do you think has the best character development and become a better character the most since the beginning of the manga ? Who on the other hand has regressed the most as a character, losing substance and development and being the worst victim of flanderization in the manga ?

Sanji is flanderized
Zoro is still cool

Sanji is flanderized
Zoro is still cool

Zoro hasn't progressed, and has even regressed as a character as well. Too much badassery and flanderization and far too little characterization outside of battle or character development.

 

[Monkey D Theories]

Usopp’s development is ASS

 

[Zoinks52]

Akainu, Kizaru and Kuzan have progressed a lot IMO.

They went from red cunt, sociopath monke and token good teammate to genuinely interesting morally grey characters in the short time they've appeared onscreen.

Hopefully Issho and Aramaki will also get the same care.

Regression - Sanji and Usopp are slaves to their gags. Luffy can act a bit asinine too, well more than usual.

still cool tho

Robin had an amazing character develepmont

Usopp’s development is ASS

Usopp defeated Page1 and Ulti the Twin Beast Hunter that he is, he scales higher than Jinbe

 

[Screws Loose242]

Sanji easily and that facts

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

Progressed the most is probably Kizaru. Man went from uninteresting neutral bloke to outbursting gigachad when he screams at Akainu through the den den mushi. Shit's great. What's even better is that Akainu didn't bark back in return like he did with Fujitora but he outright said, "Sorry bro, my bad." Kizaru responds with, "Bruh". Love it.


Regressed the most, Chopper or Usopp.

Honestly Kizaru went from Celestial Dragon servant trash to a real human being in just a few chapters. It seems he as well as most other higher ups are serving out of a genuine fear for their life, all except Akainu who knows he is too indispensable to be just killed off. The high ranking Marines have a ton of potential as characters to explore the dynamic of the choice between serving a corrupt system and letting the world go to chaos.

Chopper and Usopp both suck
But Usopp seems to get some funny development in this chapter

Progress the most = has little to none details about them at first, and now has so much more details about them.

So obviously Sanji. We even got small random details about him (like his lighter's blueprint & backstory) and several details that most other characters don't have (like his family's story).

He also has the most blatant personality change too (willing to ask for help, willing to let women be in danger, feels worthy).

 

[kekaro]

Sanji, Kuzan, Crocodile progressed the most

Chopper, Kaku and Tashigi regressed the most

 

[Devilbat]

Akainu, Kizaru and Kuzan have progressed a lot IMO.

Yes, I also think that the admiral trio had a really good characterization. Kizaru especially surprised me, didn't expect anything of him and now he's contending for one of the most interesting characters among marines.

SHPs all regressed imo due to flanderization, except for maybe Robin. And yes, I like Sanji and find his character development quite interesting, but in the last arcs he's asking to be a dog and wondering how you can screw up a giantess, talk about some dire flanderization.

 

[Rumble]

Zoro has way less personality since the timeskip.

Usopp and Chopper are worse in every way.

Brook and Frankly far too subdued.

Really only Sanji improved massively, Luffy a bit, Nd Nami and Robin more or less stayed the same.

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

Oda even take away his muscles in Elbaf. It's Usoppover.

 

[Yoho]

Koby and Helmeppo progressed the most as characters

Majority of the strawhats have stayed stagnant for the most part

Dragon has progressed the least

 

[Don Diego]

Sanji, Bonney, KUMA progressed the most

Usopp, Chopper, Robin regressed the most

 

[Near]

The admirals have probably progressed the most, while some of the strawhats like Ussop and Chopper have regressed the most.

Shoutout to my boy Wapol, he went through a lot of progression.

Went from riches to rags to riches and is now a fugitive who knows some of the WG's darkest secrets. Also he saved Vivi.
