No, he is just a strawhat that had few story interactions. It doesn't make him the worst strawhat.

When your kid is just standing on the bench during a football game, are you calling them "the worst kid" ?
Usopp is a coward with very few redeemable qualities and is hardly given any spotlight. Either Oda is saving his character development for Elbaf (bad idea), or he’s just there for comedy relief.

We’re not talking about real life. We’re talking about a fictional story.

If you don't treat characters like real life person, how am I expected fo you to treat real person in a fair manner ?

All strawhats have their qualities, it was just not the time for Usopp to shine. It doesn't make him "the worst".

The logic of trying to name "the worst something" with characters that just don't had a place in the story is deeply problematic.

But you do you.

My point is: None of them were. :cheers:

:okay:

They’re still fictional characters. Nothing changes the fact that Usopp is the way he is.

He is the worst Straw Hat because he rarely contributes to the work that the others do. Now, this isn’t to say that he is totally useless. After all, he did invent Nami’s Clima-Tact. But ultimately, he’s only done a handful of things within the past several years. He’s on the back burner until he’s needed for some convenient plot related scenario.

He seemed a lot braver when he was using his Sogeking persona. It even seemed to be implied that it actually helped him overcome his fears when he was fighting Perona on Thriller Bark. Most of his memorable moments were when he was Sogeking, and that’s not exactly a good thing.

Nami and Chopper are usually bunched with him as the Cowardly Trio at times in the story and yet they usually do their fair share. Chopper saved many people who became Ice Oni and Nami put her life on the line to tell Ulti that Luffy will be the King of the Pirates. These were commendable moments for them, and they’re just the ones I could remember offhand.

Usopp is literally the MVP of dressrosa so, no.

There is no such things as worth strawhat. There are strawhat who are not too much in the story but that's all.

Wow. One thing. Good for you! Unfortunately, that was only one instance out of many in previous One Piece arcs.

I wonder if you have a different definition as to what “worst” Straw Hat means? From what I understand, it means the one who does the least. Usopp has had plenty of panels and despite this he still doesn’t accomplish much in them, and when he does it’s only once in a blue moon.

I can easily think of atleast a handful of things the other Straw Hats have done, but I always have to think longer when it comes to Usopp. 64 people including me seem to have come to this conclusion according to the poll.

Usopp is the reason Tama was able to turn Gifters into allies. Much sniping into the mouths
I forgot about that, but like I’ve said that’s only one instance. He doesn’t do more than one or two things per arc if at all, which is irritating.

The same could go for Brook and Chopper at times as well, although I think they‘ve still done more in recent times.

It's Oda's fault.

Every SH is awesome.
Oda fails to make them shine because of he is short of time since he wastes so many chapters on running and stuff like Tama or Hiyori.


Usopp handling Gifters is such boss, so is Brook breaking Mother Caramel pic, so is Chopper curing Ice Oni

It was easily Sanji for the longest time. Nosebleeding mess for FMI. Leg broken by vergo. Trapped by his simp nature at Dressrosa followed by being punked by Doflamingo. Didn't have any real impressive victories at WCI. Got trapped by his simp nature again at Wano. Destroyed his raid suit because of the monster he could become. Which is an interesting juxtaposition against Chopper since he gave up his more humanoid form to be a monster for Luffy.

But he gets a pass as the worst because his super human genes activated so he should be able to fight some stronger (male) opponents from now on.

At the end of Wano, Usopp is by far the worst. Usopp while inconsistent did make some strides during the timeskip. However, Usopp needs to put in some work after his disgraceful performance during the raid. Hiding behind Nami and then telling Nami it is ok to lie about Luffy becoming the pirate king makes him the worst straw hat by far. That cowardice completely shits on his speech in Alabasta against Miss Merry Christmas. Hell if Carrot joins then Usopp is still the worst straw hat. Brook's speech to big mom was fire. Chopper stood up to Big Mom on the Sunny and Queen in Wano. Not to mention using Caesar's alteration to the rumble ball, someone he hates. Nami in the end stood up to Ulti. Man, where is the Usopp that taunted Lucci?
Yeah Carrot was still brave enough to try and take down Perospero.
She's weak, but at least she tries, I'll give her that.
Usopp is just.. ugh. Nearly every SH had something somewhat cool in Wano.
Luffy is obvious with his moments on the Roof Top and what not.
Same for Zoro.
Sanji's Ifrit Jambe pose and explanation of it was kind of cool, I like how it looks.
Jinbe shitting on Who's Who after finding out he's a literal racist was funny and good.
Franky and Brook driving over Big Mom and talking trash was incredibly cool and badass, hell Franky even tried to use Radical Beam on her and she was a little scared.
Robin was also badass with Demonio.
Chopper slapping Queen and curing the people was good I guess, I mean he just cured fodders but him bitch slapping Queen was funny.

But Usopp didn't do anything. Did he even defeat Page One? Was that the person he was fighting?
