They weren't really fodder since none of them has actually fought a strong opponent or has been defeated (except for Curiel of course).
Which character was most disappointing when revealed as fodder?
-
-
Fake Luffy. He had a 32 mil bounty and was defeated in one shot
-
Fake Luffy. He had a 32 mil bounty and was defeated in one shot
His bounty was under one hundred million with no indication that it could be higher.
He was fodder from the get go.

Bellamy had a higher bounty and was owned by Luffy in one shot pre TS. So why are you suprised?

A 26 million bounty and was one shot… by Sentoumaru? ...I mean, come on. That's barely higher than Foxy's. Not even as high as Bellamy's. And Sentoumaru is clearly no pushover.
It should've been clear by the fact they were scheming to use the Strawhat name to gather up strong folks and how easily they were ignored and manhandled by the actual Strawhats just how weak they were.

yes but when luffy was at 30 million he was not fodder was he?
-
I am guessing you are right about Robin, her snapping Spanda was pretty graphic.
Luffy never kills his opponents, Robin is the opposite. -

Luffy also used to have no bounty at all. Does that mean everyone without a bounty is as strong as Luffy was when he didn't have one?

and that bounty probably doesn't mean shit power wise, as we've seen multiple times throughout this series people bounties aren't always determined by their power, more likely for him it was based on what ever kind of catastrophe his lies caused hence his nick name
EDIT: and sentomaru's probably still stronger than luffy hence why the fight was delayed

Let's please not be coy.
It's clear that Luffy, with a 400 million bounty, is stronger than back when he had a 30 million bounty. All of the Strawhats have gotten stronger as the series has progressed - Zoro has said as much. The Luffy that beat Arlong is not the Luffy that beat Rob Lucci.
A 26 million berry bounty isn't necessarily indicative of how strong he was - but when the pirates there when his bounty is announced get mad over how they were taken in by someone "so weak" it's pretty indicative that all he had going for him was his mouth. Oda wouldn't have given him a bounty so low if it wasn't for narrative purposes. He wouldn't have NEEDED to lie to get himself a crew of stronger people than him if he had the ability to do it himself.
Of COURSE he was one-shot by an angry Sentoumaru. And way back in the VERY beginning of the manga, when Luffy's bounty was 30 million? He'd have been one-shot by Sentoumaru too.

I'm sure luffy would have been one shot back then but I'm still sure ecen back then he could have beaten this guy, we've seen this guy do shit ecept lie which is probably all he's good for, I'm sure any other enemy from then could too, buggy, kuro, don krieg, Arlong
I'm just saying bounties aren't official measures of power
-
I was expecting a lot more from John Giant in the war.
-
Spandam isn't dead. But that scene was more graphic than most scenes.
I mean Robin seems much more cold blooded than the others towards enemies.
I am not hating on Robin, I am just stating a my opinion. -

REALLY?!?!?!
and here i was thinking Robin and Hancock had the same bounty because they were just as strong as each other!
thank you for opening my eyes
-
Don was mainly so high bounty because of his huge crew.
Robin only got an original bounty due to reading the ancient writings.There are many people that their bounties don't represent strength.
BlackBeard didn't even have a bounty when he took down ace. -

jesus, I wasn't arguing with you in the first post i was just adding on to it, I wasn't telling you that, It was more for the person you quoted I just thought you had basically finished most of the arguments so I quoted you instead of rewriting the same shit,

Sentoumaru was slapping around 300 Million Berry Luffy, was the personal bodyguard of Vegapunk and has since been promoted.
You can't seriously believe that Sentoumaru would struggle with Demalo Black, would you? If anything, one should be surprised that Black didn't explode into pieces when Sentoumaru slammed his Broad Axe on his head.

Hancock's bounty is frozen. For all we know Robin is as strong as Hancock was when she received her bounty.
-
Hancock has (had?) CoC. As far as we know Robin has shown no signs of it. Also remember that her, Hancock's, first voyage was after she became the empress or whatever, where it would be safe to assume that she had quite a bit of power at the time.
Unless the above was only in the anime, I mix up the two sometimes.

Well hancock immediately got a shichibukai title, i don't think robins that strong yet, and another example here is that lip guy from like 2 chapters ago
-
Nero, jk he is a pussy. Prolly Ace or all of the Shipwrights besides Lucci and Kaku.
-
Hopefully the Caoribous won't be.
-

How does Ace make any sense?
-
Ace's main purpose was a STRONG GUY who in actuality was just for fodder to show off Blackbeard.

And later, Akainu. And maybe to saw just because you are a D./Have the King's Haki means you are invincible.

Boa Hancock = Fanservice Fodder.
You heard it here first.
That, or Kitsunes been a'preachin'… -
Hancock, despite being a mediocre character, may be fanservice fodder, but she isn't straight up fodder in terms of her role in the story.
She's saved Luffy's ass quite a few times now, and she's a major ally to the Strawhats; she's certainly not fodder.
-
Mr. Prince :getlost:
-
Foxy :( Even though he has no importance to the world what so ever it would be nice to nice to see him in a coverstory or something.
-
Cariboo I thought he was some ultra bad ass turns out he's a bigger pussy than usopp.
-
Oh god are people actually surprised Luffy's faker turned out to not be that strong.
Really, a gag villain that was portrayed as using Luffy's name for himself being far below the likes of Luffy. How odd.

This couldn't be more true, I mean if you didn't know he was going to be fodder you had to at least half retarded

How was he anymore badass than Bellamy.

Don't read deep into it. Especially in this topic where fodder is a free-for-all term.
-
caribou…hes such a wimp...
-
Okay seriously what was so impressive about Caribou?
Please don't say the bounty.
-
He has a logia. Also, I'm pretty sure he's acting right now and waiting for them to be more off their guard
-

No, he's waiting for his crew to come back.
-
Caribou nuff said
-
Yeah what with his super high bounty.
-
i guess this is to show just how much more powerful the SH have become
-
I think Caribou is just pretending to be weak to catch the Straw Hats off guard
-
Why is it when a character is realistic like Coby in the war or Caribou now we call them wimps? Guy should definitely be weaker than Franky and the M.Trio but he is not a pussy just being rationally cautious around 9 notorious pirates and a giant sea monster in its domain.
Luffy probably going to Intimidate the thing into submission. Caribou obviously won't expect the captain of the ship he is after to tame a beast with will power alone.
