You should probably read One Piece before Nolans Odyssey btw
>>220118950I don't want to read either. Here's my counter offer. License to Kill. Slappers only! or Throwing Knives. No Radar. Tendies. Baja Blastaritas.
>>220119007Holy Fucking Shit.
>>220118950>You should probably read One Piece instead of Nolans Odyssey btwFixed.
>>220118950One Piece is objectively bad story.Stories are about character growth.Characters in One Piece do not change, they only do get power ups.Unironically even characters in Dragon Ball undergo character change.
>>220120256one piece is an inversion, luffy stays the same happy guy he always is while the world changes around him instead
>>220120275You know, the lamest thing is Luffy has to do everything himself.In Wano, the story actually baited the samurai had to overthrow Kaidou themselves but they just job
This is a shitty story for teenager retards with flashy fights and boobs. Why do you faggots expect a La Règle du jeu-level masterpiece?
>>220118950>SAY IT!!!
>>220120275Dragonball follows the same principles. In fact many combat focused shonen works follow the same principles, wherein they emphasize that true power comes from the heart, teaching that someone who only "does" is inferior to one who understands the deeper, compassionate purpose of martial arts. Protags like Goku, Saitama, Luffy and Naruto fight for the love of martial arts and/or to protect the ones he loves and to achieve their noble goals, whereas enemies like Vegeta and Garou, who fight for mainly vainglorious purposes initially, lose until they see the error of their ways.This is based on the Taoist principles of self improvement, which should not be done for fame and glory but instead for the mere purpose of improving your physical self and ennobling your spirit.
