Shit is intense as fuck and that hair pulling caught me off guard lolPEAK
>Monkey D. Luffy finally turned into a literal monkeyThis manga has gone on too long and needs to stop NOW
>>292155708I want the paramecha gomu back!Fucking this mythical zoan bullshit
>>292155708So Nika was a monkey...?
>>292155741He was inspired by Hanuman
Pre-Timeskip One Piece was PEAKWell, its not really the "timeskip" specifically that was the diverging point.One Piece till the timeskip before Fishman Island is peak.Rayleigh seeing off Luffy after timeskip is still peak.Fishman Island is where it instantly falls offWho knows what happened after that, its like Oda got replaced
>>292156046The drop in quality began in Amazon lily. Sabaody had decent tension but the following arcs proved that Oda doesn’t have what it takes. He was born that way and he’ll die that way.
>>292156046One Piece didn't get good till SkypeiaThen everything after thriller bark and before wano act 3 was a drag
>>292155708Reminder that the retards constantly seething are unable to form a single opinion on why they think anything in this arc is bad.
>>292156046Fishman Island and Punk Hazard are the low point. Everything afterwards is better than these two arcs, but overall the manga only sporadically reaches the quality of pre-TS.
>>292155967But doomkeks told me It was out of nowhere huh?
Why are people surprised the zoan fruit has an animal form?
>>292156134But it's human human fruit, not a monkey monkey fruit
>>292156134I've seen sentiments that One Piece is becoming to focuses on transformations. A lot of people seem to be taking for granted that monkey luffy is meant to be another powerup, along with blah blah blah I got bored of typing this post halfway
Bring me Vivi
WTF DOES A MONKEY HAVE TO DO WITH RUBBER AND TOON FORCE????
>>292156134they're not it's just trolling
>>292156200Nikka is base on a god in ancient time. Thus the monkey is the god true form and toon force was the god power.
>>292156200Uh, his name is Luffy Tha Monkey. Keep up.
>>292155741This 100% this.
>>292155708>TFW gear:death meme wasn't a meme
>>292156234One piece is kino as fuckFirst El Hermano, then monkey king gear death/nika the destructive KINO NEVER ENDS
>>292156155No, that's Chopper's fruit
>>292156294But it's literally called hito hito no mi model nika
>>292156200>RUBBERIt has nothing to do with rubber, that's how people interpret it, not how it is. >toon forceIt's a god.
>>292155708I thought this was AI at first, I didn't want to believe it. That'll teach me
>>292156134>zoanThe gomu is a paramecha!
>>292156275Is there link to the first thread where it appeared or some sxreencap? I missed it
making luffy's fruit some super special chosen one bullshit ruined the character for me. one of the biggest draws for me in early one piece was that he got a shitty ability and made the best out of it. I get it that everytime they debut a new gear design Oda and his crew make bazzilion yen out of merch sales but I just find it lame. the marine ford arc established perfect power scale for Luffy to overcome by the end of the series and now that shit is completely obsolete and irrelevant because we have power creep that makes the one in dbz and naruto tame in comparison.
>>292156557I'd like to think Yonko level is only surpassed by IMU/Joyboy. Luffy in my mind is Yonko level now and it's struggling to level up to Imu/joyboy with this new form.Gorosei and fleet admiral are below Yonkos or else it wouldn't make sense why the Marines let half of the Grandline be dominated by the Yonko.
>>292156557Being immune to bullets and cannonballs and punches and clubs, and having a melee range of like 50 meters, while being able to build up massive kinetic energy behind his attacks if he stretch n snaps them, was never a shitty ability.Not even other DF users went "Damn, you're just a rubber man? What a shit ability"
>>292156557>because we have power creep that makes the one in dbz and naruto tame in comparison.Do we? A bunch of characters on Marineford could just nuke the battlefield, and they did. Dragonball ended up with multiple planetbusters, One Piece is far from that.
Torishima was right about Wan Piss btw.
>>292156703>eceleb shit
>>292156046>Who knows what happened after thatOda did a 180, instead of having a manga about characters going on adventures and discovering amazing things in a wild world, OP became about the world itself and the characters being reduced to excuse to show more of it. It's no longer a story, it's lore dumping.
>>292156703Didn't he just complain that One Piece wouldn't sell?
>>292156749I believe this wasn't a 180 and was always the plan. He's just not elegant at it.
>>292155741We still not even on the moon.>>292156200All of it is a little bananas.
>>292156674It wasn’t “shitty” in the sense of being Jacket Jacter tier, but it was far from the top.It surely wasn’t as powerful as the Turn everything into Sand Fruit, or Burn everything into fire and lava Fruit, or even I can trap shadows and create an army of Zombies fruit.He was an Underdog in the sense that there were bigger fishes outside of his pound and he had to work hard with what used to be “the funny rubber fruit” and turning it into a powerhouse by getting creative.Revealing “actually it was the god god fruit all along” ruined that, and also opened a very convenient can of worms wheres any fruit can be retconned on the fly into a God God fruit too in case Oda trapped himself into a corner.Nothing is literally stopping Oda to retcon other fruits like Chopper’s
Reminder
>Saint Carlos is STILL aliveOda must have something important planned for him because there's no other explanation for having this fuck survive 3 separate attacks on his life.
>>292156984I imagine I can fuck Nami
>>292156557>he had a shitty ability>completely immune to guns and blunt force>there's like one other fruit user in all of east blueand that's without luffy being bullshit strong and fast, capable to knock kuro as if it were nothing>>292156963luffy was never an underdog and i wish you dimwitted faggots stopped parroting youtuber opinions because i've seen "luffy is an underdog with a shitty fruit" being repeated word for word enough to think it must've been from some retard from whom even bigger retards take their opinions
>>292157203>luffy was never an underdogHe was. He was literally a big fish in a pound called East Blue and his fruit had a good potential but was nothing too extraordinary (until the retcon).Seriously he was going to get killed in pic related like an idiot by Buggy and Alvida’s hands, or later by Smooker if it wasn’t for his daddy showing up.>but his hero grandpa and his Che Guevara dadJust like the sons and grandsons of many others strong individuals>but mhu D. FamilyJust like many others people with the D. In the name that got the L. Instead>but mhu Emperor HakiJust like other powerful pirates that unlocked it, some of them not even Yonko level (unless we agree Don Chinjao is actually as strong as kaido)He was powerful, but still among the canon norm of the powerful individual in the manga.Is only with SHITMU and the shitty retcon about the Nika Nika fruit that the ship sunked into the trash.
>>292156200DK DONKEY KONG
The fact that I saw porn of this form surprised me
>>292155741Oda did say he was Brazilian
>>292157124My pet theory is that he will have a moment of redemption before One Piece ends.
>>292156161Your attention span is so damaged you can't even bother to finish a train of thought? You need a break from your phone immediately
>>292156557>one of the biggest draws for me in early one piece was that he got a shitty ability and made the best out of itI swear to god you people are insane and haven't read east blue in decades. You read through East Blue and the fact he has a devil fruit already put him above 95% of the guys he encounters up until the grand line when the baroque works guys start showing up. For the majority of the manga Luffy's own idiocy is a bigger threat to his life than anyone trying to take it from him.
>>292157420Fool that you are, I can be attention deficient on my PC, mwahahahaah
>>292157386
>>292157459Luffy's been told over and over again that he'll keep getting his shit handed to him if he just keeps relying on his DF. What's happening now it's just the culmination of that, he's not had a proper challenge since Kaido. Even the Gorosei weren't much of a problem to him, aside from being immortal
>>292157126Based.
One Piece sucks.
>>292157651It used to be pretty good before the time skip.
>>292157538Spill the beans?SPILLING BEANS?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbQFtKN2jc0
>>292157615I really hope its some funny bullshits like “i want to eat the moon to see if its made off cheese” or some other funny-retarded shit…or else oda is a massive hack
>>292157615Why are these psychopaths laughing without a care in the world?
>>292155708were there any hints of the sun god being a mink?

>>292157682>I wish to...END ALL SLAVERY>Whoa there buddy you think that's possible?>Maybe when I'm the pirate King. I want everyone to be free!
>>292157743I never payed much attention to this horse. Now that I look at her I gotta admit. I really like her design. Should have been a joiner. I don't get why people go crazy over some other girls.
>>292156557His ability was fine as it was, Oda didn't really had to make his DF into Chosen Chosen no Mi
Speed could have been a storekeeper. Keeping track of all the supplies the Sunny needs, and helping manage what everyone needs on hand. Perhaps even an assistant for Franky.
>>292157124what if those 3 attacks where fabricated/staged/fake?
>>292157966it's more romantic
>>292156664The gorosei are regen merchants anon, only the Top was able give a good fight against luffy, the rest just disintegrated with a few punches.All the GK are basically yonko comander fodder, yes, that includes Shartrock, he is featless son far

>>292158475Well my last great feat was 2018 so he's justlikeme.
>>292158475There are still Dragonball fans despite Dragonball now being bad for longer than it was good. Sometimes you just stick around.
>>292158475You gotta stop thinking of the grand scale of things and look towards his actions each time. Usopp acted as a great spy during Wano, took out two of the Tobiroppo along with Nami, Saved Kanjuro from the burning building, and has done everything within his role when asked for him.If we got the 'Ussop moment' for every arc, then the complain is others not getting it as well. Then people will complain about the padding and pacing of One Piece EVEN MORE and your bitchass comment would be remarking how Franky didn't "Blah Blah" since a chapter during Egghead.Go read something the fuck else.
>>292158512>garlingElder shit regen merchant>shanksStrong yonko, makes admiral sissies wet their dippie>shambumHolykek featless regen merchantFtfy bro
Oda could publish the next chapter as 16 blank pages and OP fans would go>I see it Goda ToT
>>292158670He could publish the greater chapter and doomkeks would still shit on it
>>292158670>an AMAZING decaquadruplespread!>break next week
>>292156320If he isn't rubber how was he immune to lightning?>Luffy imagined itLuffy didn't know that proprity of rubber.
>>292157615
>>292160172Luffy being immune to round bullets and cannonballs throwing them back but losing to swords was peakLuffy being immune to lightning and being able to naturally punch enel as rubber was peakLuffy using water to punch sand using Croc who drained all water from arabasta was peak Luffy using toon force of bullshittery to beat god is lame as fuck
>>292160172It's a god damn retcon is what it is.Luffy was 100% rubber. Up until Wano, when he needed to pull something out of his ass and make the obligatory demi god form every anime hero gets.
>>292160248>EnelHis name is Eneru.
Wano threads made for great shitposting.
>>292160249Is that why Lucci, Doflamingo and Katakuri called out Luffy's rubber for being weird?
>>292160341because Luffy used his powers in creative ways.
>>292160372They said Rubber shouldn't work this way specifically
>>292160341Ho yeah, because strings can totally burn shit, create clones, puppetting other human beings and cut through steel and stone?Or the mochi could shapeshift into giant building-like punches, melting into lava like effects and hardening like steel?Are you suggesting Doffy and Katakuri had a god god fruit too but were too obtuse to understand their full potential?
>>292160421>>292160410See here, I get your point but to claim Luffy's rubber has always been normal is just false.
>>292160410Luffy also said Doffy abilility didn't look like a paramecia.
>>292155741Yea this shit is getting bad and i havent watched the show in a long time. Its like when kishimoto made a fucking alien the main villian in naruto shippuden.
>>292160341Can you remind me when Lucci said that? I remember him deducing how gear 2nd works mid fight.
>>292160446Just as silly as other paramecha fruits, like Wax stronger than steel, or the toy fruit erasing memories of the targets from the world and all the other dumb stuff.Paramecha has always been about a loose concept of the matter/ability in control driven to extreme.Oda just arbitrarily decided that luffy’s rubber “was too different from real life rubber” to justify the nika shit.But it feels insincere since none of the other paramecha fruits were 1:1 their natural counterpart
>>292160472Even if you don't believe me, Gear 4 also had a Hagoromo like Gear 5
>Imu is a nigga>Luffy's strongest form is a nigga>Blackbeard, the other most likely final villain, is a big fat niggaNigga piece
>>292160561Hagoromos are a zoan thing, back in Dressrosa Luffy already had it.
>>292160724>a black man created his personal fake government full of white supremacist oppressing and torturing other blacks, whites and fishmen
>>292160739>Hagoromos are a zoan thing
>>292160757That's not a cloud thing like with all the zoans but ok
>>292157600I need her to milk my penis dry
>>292157403Oda is retarded.
>>292160789you should have been more specific then just fucking with you
Is Monkey D. going to steal kills from Zolo and Chef? No idea why he fled the actual fight, maybe I missed a chapter
>>292160793You don't have enough money.
>>292160809Kills, feats, fags, virginity, all of it.
>>292160739>oh he put a random detail from 500 chapters ago and retconned it as an important one everyone is using right now! >this means its 100% foreshadowing that was always planned all along and not some bullshit pulled on the fly in an attempt to give the illusion it makes senseAlways defensive odatards.Now explain me why this agoromo shit was never a thing in the whole manga.The awakened guards in Impel Down didn’t had any. That shit was only on luffy for design and later was added after Kaido.Maybe Enel’s second form had one, in that case is Enel’s fruit actually a god god zoan too?
>>292157124Oda doesn't like to punish villains. He prefers to treat them like Looney Tunes characters where they get pummeled into oblivion but then be fine and still a major asshole the next time we see them
>>292158670absolutely
when does imu show up on elbaf in the anime? are we close? i don't watch
>>292160862See no matter what evidence I give you It won't be enough, but anyway Oda already confirmed they were failed Zoan awakenings, also Enel's was made of lightning.
>>292160925Oda can literally change the rule of his story whenever he want at this point and you will just clap like a bunch of seals.I cannot wait for the next fruit retconned into a god god one and you screaming“Akshually it was foreshadowed all along, you need to have an high IQ to understand why”
>>292161075It's like talking to a brick wall, I've given enough evidence hopefully others can get something from it.
>>292161130These “evidences” are literally shit that can be easily disproved.All of it works around “but rubbers doesn’t do this” while in the whole manga every paramecha does the same weird shit.Than you added the shitty Hagoromo’s , which are something that become relevant only after kaido, with oda retconning its lack of back in IP with “akshually these were failed normies”, to the point now we have to believe Lucci having one too was not a stupid retcon either?!Oh but apparently Enel’s second form doesn’t count?! Why?! He can’t be secretly the zoan god of thunder fruit too?This is the level of stupidity i have to stand against!But lets play your game.. lets pretend Oda had the idea “the gomu is actually a zoan god fruit” back in 2014 during Dressrosa.Its still a shitty retcon pulled out from nowhere even in that case.
I actually got my hopes up that the sludge man snake tongue was going to pull off kidnapping Shirahoeshi and make the story more interesting, but Monkey apparently developed a power to sense sneaking around? I hate rubber Monkey most times desu
Kiku raped me.
>>292161331Trannies tend to be sexually demented
>>292161331Lucky guy
>>292155708>Shit is intense as fuck and that hair pulling caught me off guard lolI really like that Luffy D Monkey was so much less playful about how he fights, uses the same abilities as Luffy but instead of making fights fun he just uses toon force cruelly and laughs about it.
>>292161209You can still drop it you know
>>292157124Maybe the celestial dragons really are god chosen. Bro is a fat slob and constantly survives attacks from top tier fighters, and even survived a kick to the head that can crack a continent in half. All of this without haki as well.
>>292158182Way too many >s, otherwise correct.
>>292161331Based Lolo
>>292155708>editionSee you in three days.
>>292156046FI plot, lore and flashbacks are pretty good, the problem is that it is twice as long as it should be, this is a common problem for Oda as an author, Wano might be the most clear example of it.Punk Hazard is pretty shit ngl, also too long, it should have been similar to Zou arc, 25chapters max.Dressrosa is more or less fine, WCI is great, Zou is good, Wano needs almost a complete rewrite, total trash, Egghead is good, Elbaf is great.
>>292157124He will be a valuable ally in Two Piece when Enel returns from the moon to battle Luffy and Marguerite’s son.
>>292161789If this were xianxia luffy would’of killed Charles when they met and given a sick ass proverb about the thawing frost
>>292155708>THREE SWORD STYLE BONGO WONGO WARTHOG STRIKEand then he teleports through the enemy and it looks just like every other fucking move. Zoro is so goddamn boring. What is the actual difference between Onigiri and Spot Hunt? Nothing
>>292156046What I find funny is Oda already used a lot of old pirate lore for Fishman Island and now years later he seems to have thought "Oh shit, I totally wasted all these potential ideas" and brought it back with the Davy Clan and shit.
>>292158182I think it will be Garling (PK+) >>> Shanks (PK) >= Omen Shamrock (PK) >>> Shamrock (Yonko tier)I see a Shanks+Shamrock vs Garling as Garling final matchup.
How would hybrid zoan form Devon fare against Mu?
>>292160172>Luffy didn't know that proprity of rubber.What makes you think that?
