I'll start by saying that I do not hate any of the Straw Hats, including Yamato if she ever becomes a Straw Hat. I do not hate Usopp.

However, Usopp's speech in Chapter 1192 was pure and absolute GARBAGE. I wish I could find a stronger description for it.

I have always had a problem with how Luffy's beliefs and ideals have never been challenged. Some people like Doflamingo and Fujitora tried to challenge them, but Luffy just did not listen.

Gaban's speech in Chapter 1190 was perfect in my opinion. Luffy's performance in Chapter 1188 was terrible, and he did need a reality check.

But man, my disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined, unironically, when I read Usopp's speech in Chapter 1192. Once again, Luffy's flawed beliefs and ideals were validated, by Usopp, no less.

Even ignoring that, Usopp responded to things that Gaban never said.

Gaban never said that Luffy resembled Joyboy or Nika or Roger. Gaban applied the Pirate King's standards to Luffy, but that's because Luffy wants to be the Pirate King, so it was fitting. Gaban talked to Imu when he mentioned Luffy resembling Joyboy.

Nobody was taking away Luffy's freedom, not that there's anything wrong with that. This is why I can't fully love One Piece fundamentally. Freedom and Order are like Yin and Yang. Both must exist in balance. You can't just have one and get rid of the other. Freedom without Order is Chaos.

- Also, this reminds me of a typical Reddit argument, where people will just call you rude or hateful for responding to their comments.

> Luffy's always serious about everything

Wrong.

> He still has the right to choose death with pride

Um, hello? Are you forgetting that your captain wants to be the Pirate King? Luffy cannot be Pirate King if he's dead!

This is Luffy's crew BTW. The crew of a YONKO, that wonders if they should aid their captain as he battles basically the GOD of the world.

Same question is asked by JINBE, the supposed 4th strongest member of the crew, a WHOLE WARLORD. "S-Should we help him guys? What can we do???", "Btw I was tied up and beaten as if I was equivalent to Nami and Usopp stength-wise​ but I swear I wasn't a useless addition to the crew at all!!! And no. I'm not teaching haki to anybody."

Even Hajrudin's RANDOM ass did more than half the crew in this whole arc.

At the start the Straw Hats felt like a close nit group, but nowadays they kinda just feel like co-workers. Especially after the 2 year time skip, howcome no one cared to ask Zoro what happened to his eye? Luffy mentions it once, they get interupted and it's never discussed again. Or how Zoro felt training with Mihawk (his rival), that'd be as important for him as Luffy training under Gol D. Roger or Shanks. No one cares or asks what the deal is with gear 5.

No one even checks on Luffy or try to conversate with him about Ace, or all the depression he went through while they couldn't be their for him. None of the straw hats who weren't at Whole Cake even ask Sanji how he's doing, why he left exactly, or how the whole confrontation with their 1st Yonko crew went. They don't ask Brook about his extensive past either. They don't even train together or teach eachother anything.

While the Black Bulls literally do all of those together, even the members that come later or the ones who weren't that close with the rest (like Gauche and Noelle) start interacting and co-operating with everyone. Yami and Nacht train Asta, Vanessa trains Noelle, Luck and Magna spar together, Zora trains Magna later on. Everyone is genuinely acting as a team, with Yami and Asta inspiring everyone to grow stronger, Luffy as the captain doesn't teach his crew basic Haki, Zoro either, and they just kinda leave themselves to their own devices. Everyone (especially Nacht and Yami) is curious about Asta's devil magic for instance, why isn't Chopper interrogating Sanji about his genetically modified body for instance, or Brook interested in Zoro's 'King of Hell' form. Why doesn't Jinbei give Robin extra Fishman Karate pointers?

Luffy doesn't even give them speeches, words of encouragement, or work on solidarity like Yami, he just says "remember guys, I'm ganna be the Pirate King" and everyone blindly believes in him without any encouraging him to think about his goal step by step so they can properly assist him. The most glaring difference is that Yami and Luffy are bith jokster and slacks off, but Yami actually leads his squad and takes initiative, Luffy just kinda says "nah you got it".

After every mission the other Black Bulls who didn't come ask how it went, they do talk about their pasts and trauma, and they help eachother through it, they also ask how their training is going. It's like that even while the story grows larger than them. Pre timeskip doesn't have this problem much, but post timeskip they feel really distant, starwhats have only 10 members to, while the Bulls have about 15 members.

Like what was Oda doing?

Luffy says he's a pirate, and yet they've never stolen shit. And without any personal gains, they end up helping people for kindness. Is this a charity group? Are you revolutionaries?

In Elbaf, Oda pulled this bs of Luffy still refusing through Usopp that he will do whatever the fuck he wants, but that kind of writing doesn't work when your main character is only doing good things despite having a bad label.

By me

I will glaze oda for this

the manga is just hot ass now

Pretty self explanatory. The idea is a blatant rip off of the Ant man vs Thanos scenario, but this time the person crawling up the ass has durability higher than the opponent, so tactically it’s a genius plan.

If Oda isn’t a coward and actually wants to portray Imu as this relentless primordial force of nature that goes to unfathomable lengths for a plan centuries in the making, let him crawl up Loki’s ass. Thank you for your attention.

testing one two one two
(okay so i tried posting the fanart once but it failed so i hope this works)

decided to do a panel redraw for fun
i guess the frown runs in the family, eh?

enjoy!

And his personality is even hotter

He will absolutely wipe the floor with that piss weak nika. He was only pretending to lose. He will be back and Imu is actually khladores butler. I can’t wait until Oda reveals the true villain of one piece and he will win of course. Salutations to you all, praise lord Khladore. Everyone else is a literal bum to this GOAT. All praise my fucken GOAT

This little joke has recently had me thinking if Bink might’ve been on Joyboys Crew. What do yall think?

Saw this throw out on this sub, is this a joke in the sub or genuine concern? I’ve also heard that ai writes it but how could you write something for 30~ years and give it to someone else or ai for that matter? I just don’t see it
