>claims there will be no romance between main cast members, so you shouldn't ship them>takes almost every opportunity he gets to push a main cast shipI don't get Oda.
>>282637414Meh, Nami is basically the crew onahole.Everyone has probably gotten a turn with her....except Sanji, of course.
>>282637414Don't forget how she's depicted as the queen to his king
>>282637414>Wank Piss thread>implying that Oda is not a bad writerkekw
>>282637414>he thinks that's what Oda's shipping looks like
>>282637991This thread is not meant to be the typical rage bait thread to shit on Oda and OP. I genuinely don't understand why he made that statement and went so far as to give dumb SBS answers in order to get rid of Straw Hat ships if he was going to do this.
>>282638094>makes Nami blush over Luffy just saying random things >almost all the color spreads have Nami and Luffy interacting in some wayNigga has never been less subtle about this shit.
>>282637414Lunafags are mentally ill
>>282638624In what sense? Oda gives them reasons to believe in their ship almost every week. If you hate that ship so much, you should blame him.
>>282638188>>282638530I dunno, I don't feel that emotionally invested in the color spreads. It's like characters are posing for a picture, it's more for aesthetic reasons than anything meaningful. And people can see romance wherever they want, at the end of the day there's nothing there between anyone.
>>282637414Nami also pressed Usopp' face into her tits. And Momosuke several times
>>282638789Why didn't Oda make half of those interactions with Robin, though? If it's just characters striking poses, he could use her for that.>>282638827She just jumped on Ussop out of excitement at seeing a Straw Hat after 2 years. Momo was just a kid, but when he became an adult and wanted her to hug him the same way, he got pushed back. With Luffy, it was totally intentional. She had no reason to press him against her tits, but she did it anyway.
>>282637414What does that maid cafe photo have to do with anything? She's not even looking at him.
>>282640406Look at what is written on Luffy's meal
>>282639317Robin is the bookish serious type, Nami is the sexy fun type.
>>282640565He had no problem with using Robin for this kind of focused-Luffy art in the pre-time skip, though. His interactions with Nami in these arts were not half as frequent as they are now.
>>282640481Damn I hadn't noticed it, fucking Oda.
>>282638188So that people would stop asking what were the canon ships + to dab on fujos and their gay shit.
>>282637414>is present in the same picture as Luffy>at most is reaching her arm around him>this is "shipping" to anon
>>282642070>being this disingenuousIn any manga these pictures would be taken as a sign of ship approval for people who like that specific couple. I'm not even a Lunafag, but I can't blame them when Oda is constantly feeding them like this.
>>282642704Confirmation bias so strong you even think I "know what you know." I simply call it "reading into something because you want to believe the author approves." If two characters can't even share a frame together without it "meaning something," that's too fucking limiting on what he can draw, man. Sometimes standing near a character is just standing near a character.If there's more too it, get Oda to say it. Until then? Wishful thinking.
>>282642970I don't want to believe in anything lol, I'm just saying that people who like this ship have reasons to be constantly excited about it because the author gives them reasons to be. You just seem to have a problem with this ship and it bothers you when I say something that isn't totally against it.
>>282643385Half those pictures merely contain both Luffy and Nami. Saying "MUH TROO PARE" because she looks in his general direction is psychotic.For the record? I have no ship in the race. At all. I just hate people with no self-awareness.
>>282643474You definitely have something against this specific ship lol. The fact that you deny it but also complain about people without “self-awareness” is hilarious. Picrel is an example of a color spread where there is nothing to encourage shippers. I know you can see the difference between this and the OP pictures even if you don't want to accept it.
>>282643626>You definitely have something against this specific ship lol.You're letting vague feelings guide your reality, like you do with your ships. I can't argue with someone like you. Have fun with your imagination I guess.
>>282637414>Claiming Oda is pushing Nami and Luffy >Says nothing about Franky and Robin or Sanji and Nami Dumb
>>282643703Whatever you say kek, I'm just showing you without any bad intentions, the difference between a classic OP color spread and the ones today, where Oda keeps pushing Luffy x Nami, but your resentment doesn't let you think clearly.
>>282641923Just GODA
>>282637414>This time it's for real, guys!
>>282644187Kek maybe, maybe not, I don't really care that much, I'm just curious about Oda's approach to this topic in recent times.
