Because she's a villain for Christ's sake.
Technically, no other villain in present day has been killed either. Croc's free in the New World, Arlong's still locked up, Kuro left Syrup, even Lucci's still out and about from the beating Luffy gave him. Spandam is still alive.
And Enel even got to go to the moon, how funny is that.

I will laugh so hard… Really I will do.
Same as I laughed at people beleiving Sabo is dead

Well yeah, since they've been beaten by Luffy who never kills anybody.

Bottom right panel. Ceaser missed, plain as day.
Regardless of how dramatically Oda presented the prior scene to create an illusion, the aftermath shows the spike nowhere near the heart, but planted firmly into the ground. (And she WAS already coughing blood from Tashigi's hit earlier.)
That is what ODA put on the page. From there you can look at the previous scene and note it is the ONE camera angle where hitting the back of the cube would create the illusion of a full hit. If the camera had been at all above or to the side, it would have been an incredibly clear hit. (And in fact, the anime extrapolated and did just such a shot… but the anime doesn't count for anything, they get things wrong all the time)
It's beside the point anyway. Oda's never going to dwell on that explanation outside of an SBS question, thats just the out he gave himself and the story rather than a plotpoint. Even if he didn't and Ceaser did hit her heart dead on, it still wouldn't matter because Oda doesn't kill when fainting will suffice, and she didn't pass on any dream or die smiling.
This is about ODA'S STORYTELLING, not about the damn harpy.
There's a lot to suggest he didn't miss. The biggest three reasons being "spurt spurt", appearance of blood and the heart being distended by the pressure of the object.
But agreed on the larger point.
-
And Monet could be alive, indeed. I don't really care about that.
But there's a big difference between saying that Monet is alive and saying that Ceasar never stabbed her heart. -
This might had made sense if Monet and Vergo still had a role in the story. They don't however, and a stab in the heart is an automatic death sentence, period. It doesn't really matter if it's 1mm deep or cuts the heart in two. I know explosions, gunshots and stabs in One Piece are never that deep, but a knife in the heart puts an end to everything. That's just the way it is. There is no way for Oda to involve them in the storyline anymore. Their chapter is closed and they are not coming back. I'm willing to bet my testicle on that.
AHH… do you like your testicles where they are...?
Also, testicle(singular)???
Do you bet your testicles often????
-
Slimey died :( and his powers were reborn into the nearest fruit. And he was killed by Ceasar. So he already has a history in killing hiw, I guess, crew members.
-
Why is it so hard for SO many people to understand that if and when Oda kills a character, HE MAKES IT OBVIOUS.
She is not dead.
He literally told us that the spike slid off and missed the next chapter.
She coughed up blood for the same reason Law did when Caesar pounded his heart while chained in the cage.

Are we disregarding the anime?

They have just as much a role as EVERY OTHER COVER STORY CHARACTER EVER. They get to move on from their former job and find something nicer to do.
Vergo might be forever gone since he murdered a named mentor character on camera when we got Law's flashback, and that's usually the one thing Oda doesn't forgive… but he didn't even have a fake death scene, we purely didn't see him for a while as the factory exploded.
But they have just as much role as Hachi, or Geddatsu, or the entirety of Boroque works. Even if they never matter to the overall story again, they'll still get follow up and happier resolutions than just dying.
They don't however, and a stab in the heart is an automatic death sentence, period. It doesn't really matter if it's 1mm deep or cuts the heart in two.
People in real life have survived being stabbed in the heart. Its about a 1 in 3 chance. Which in shonen terms is pretty much guaranteed survivial rate.
And again. He missed. He grazed or shook up the heart at most.
I know explosions, gunshots and stabs in One Piece are never that deep, but a knife in the heart puts an end to everything. That's just the way it is. There is no way for Oda to involve them in the storyline anymore. Their chapter is closed and they are not coming back. I'm willing to bet my testicle on that.
THey don't have to be in the storyline. Just the cover story.
Because she's a villain for Christ's sake.
And in One Piece, villains gets to live on after the adventure is over. Even Arlong gets to rot in jail rather than just die. Wapol got to go on and marry Mrs. Universe and become king of a new country. Hero or villain doesn't matter. One you've been beaten and go off the villain path, you get to follow a different dream.
-
I'd put more weight on the shinokuni gas. If they got covered and poisoned, only vegapunk or law could heal them.

Maybe the ones with lengthy exposure, but Kinemon was healed by just sort of… being dropped and cracked out of it. It was the poisoned/gaint children that needed Vagapunk's help.
Its a pretty terrible weapon of death when it takes 12 hours of constant exposure to work.

Villains that get beaten by Luffy do, since, as I said before, Luffy doesn't kill.
Look at the people killed by Black beard, for example. Or Moria's crew.
They died. Did they pass on their will ? No. -
They died before the series started and weren't named characters with faces and dialogue.
There is death in One Piece, sure, but Oda hasn't nonchalantly killed anyone since Alabasta, and that was just the couple guys who poisoned themselves trying to get at Crocodile, they weren't even named.(Used to be Skypeia but Bellamy's death was undone two years ago.) Even the outliers of Ace and WHitebeard had years of build up to their death and major world changing ramifications.
-
People pass on their will when someone actually can inherit their will. When they didn't accomplish something and someone accomplishes it for them. Like Robin and the Ohara archeologists, or Chopper and Hiluluk, or Zoro with Kuina.
What did Monet want to fulfill exactly ? We don't really know that ; all we know is that she wanted to help Doflamingo become the Pirate King. But this isn't going to happen. So can her will be inherited ? No.
She didn't die smiling, but not every single character dies with a smile in One Piece. Figures (/idols), do. Like Ace, for example. Or Gol D. Roger.
Not child-druggers.–- Update From New Post Merge ---

We are in the New World, buddy ; it's supposed to be a dangerous place where pirates die and suffer.
You are right ; death isn't a recurrent thing in One Piece. Monet may be alive, of course she could, but what would it add to the plot ?
And if she did survive, why didn't we see her at the end of Dressrosa ?
Will we have Vergo and Monet's Mini-Adventures next ? -
No one has died yet in the New World. Everyone survived Fishman Island, Punk Hazard, and Dresserossa. If all those victims of death smoke are okay, and Hodi let pirates go back to the surface instead of dying, and Caribou's brother survived having his ship destroyed 10,000 feet underwater, if not a single arena contestant actually died, and every single citizen of Dresserossa including hobbled old ladies survived the birdcage… If death is more casual now, it sure hasn't been shown in the last 4 years.
What did Monet want to fulfill exactly ? We don't really know that ; all we know is that she wanted to help Doflamingo become the Pirate King. But this isn't going to happen. So can her will be inherited ? No.
You can say the same of Hachi, Baroque Works and Geddatsu and Cp9 and Carribou. We got their dreams and new lives later, in their cover stories.
Monet has some other dream aside from Doflamingo will be king, something personal, and we'll get to that when she goes an opens a pet storeful of birds or something.
She didn't die smiling, but not every single character dies with a smile in One Piece. Figures (/idols), do. Like Ace, for example. Or Gol D. Roger.
Not child-druggers.Every character with dialogue and name dies smiling. Or they don't die.
There was some casual death as far back as Alabasta, but Oda, coming to understand the influence he had and his target audience,and better grasping his message and ideas, really hasn't killed anyone casually since those guards poisoned themselves to attack crocodile. Its been 15 years since he let fodder shmucks die, and has gone out of his way to spare every life since. Extremely far out of his way, in some cases.
Like on Sabondy. Pirate bit of his tongue and was declared dead by doctors. Was alive and well the next chapter with zero explanation except that he must have faked it.
Even during the war it seems like there were no casualties on either side except the two that shook the world.
-
(I'm only replying to the following part because you are right concerning the rest, and I agree with you)
Monet has some other dream aside from Doflamingo will be king, something personal, and we'll get to that when she goes an opens a pet storeful of birds or something.
How could you affirm that ?
I guess you're seeking for a parallel between Baroque Works and the Doflamingo Family, but there is a huge difference. BW is an organization, with assassins working under contract for a boss (and they didn't even know his identity for a long time). Being a member was their "job".Now the Doflamingo Family is a family ; the main members love Doflamingo and spent all their life helping him. They could even sacrifice themselves for him.
That's the difference, and that's why I don't think Monet cares about anything else except for making Doflamingo happy and helping him throughout his journey of becoming the "Supreme World Leader". I mean, she drugged and manipulated kids for him. Killed for him. Lied for him. -
How could you affirm that ?
Same reason I knew Wadatsumi was going to get coverstory treatment before Fishman Island was even done.
Because it's been the case consistently for 18 years. It's how the author works. Beyond the specifics of any one character is the narrator behind it. His philosophy, his storytelling.
Oda has, nearly every single time, taken his past villains and given them a chance at redemption or something better than villainy. The only exceptions are from East Blue very early in the series when the stories were much shorter 15 chapter affairs and the arcs would outpace the cover stories… (but Axe Hand, Buggy and Alvida still got time) and Foxy, who I assume falls into the "short arc" problem the East Blue villains did. So when the sum total of ignored villains getting some sort of follow up is... Kuro and Don Krieg, well... (And I except to see Krieg and Gin again someday... Kuro will probably cameo during the final war for a panel or two, ala Android 17 in Dragonball)
Even in the rare cases where they're totally unforgivable like Arlong, a member of the group gets to go on to something better like Hachi, and Arlong himself is addressed as "in prison" rather than "dead'. (Even when he hadn't been in the story for 10 years and was never coming back into it and could have been presumed dead, Oda STILL took time to establish he was still alive.)
Everyone else has gotten some follow up. If its a group, the group gets a shot. (minor exception with Enel's priests, but we followed one of them, and then Enel himself.)
So. Precedent mostly. Monet is alive because everyone is alive. And she'll get a chance at something happy and non villainous because... they all do.
Plus, its been revealed since then that she and Sugar are sisters, which is a detail that had nothing to do with the actual story. Surely Oda would have milked that with Sugar if there was any drama at all to take from her "death". Like I mentioned, Vergo might have taken himself off that list by killing Law's mentor... in a flashback we saw a year and a half later... but up until that point he was due to be okay too.
(Likely candidates for follow up on Desserossa... Baby 5 and Sai's wedding. Sr. Pink since he had a flashback. Sugar for being a sister. The rest of the members can be in on it too depending what the direction is... But Pica, Diamante and Trebol are going to Impel Down with Doflamingo... except we know he isn't going there... so they're going to hide for the next ten years and pop up in the war. Diamante is a parent killer, so no redemption for him.

Even the outliers of Ace and WHitebeard had years of build up to their death and major world changing ramifications.
Actually as far as minor named characters go, it was Jaya that had the last death, you forgot about Roshio. Maybe you could include Nero (but I doubt he's dead) or the nameless pirate Enel blasted. But otherwise you are correct about pretty much everything else regarding how death works in One Piece.
-
Was Roshio confirmed dead? He was stabbed in the hand, set on fire, and thrown out a window… followed by an off-camera beating by Bellamy? No body, no death scene. Pretty bad but not deadly by OP standards. If Oda did the same scene today he'd no doubt have put in a line about Roshi's crew dragging him to the clinic or something.
Still pretty close to Alabasta either way, since that was the start of the arc,,, given that by SKypeia Oda was having even civilians survive lightning bolts unharmed.
-
Random thought : Baby 5 is the first member of Luffy's fleet to appear in the story.
-
-
There was at least one more death of a nameless fodder during Dressrosa. In the final confrontation with Doflamingo, Law switched his body with a dead soldier so it could get shot instead of him.

@Jazzy:

I think Law said "sorry, I will patch you up later" after switching.

Hrm. Viz translation is pretty different on that. It says "It's Roshio's grave". But, from a bystander and with no body to be seen and with offscreen action, so who knows if it was figurative or literal. Nowadays thats enough leeway Oda would still have him alive.
I guess we can chalk that one up as the last death now. It used to be Bellamy from two years later in the series!

In the french volumes, it is said that Roshio got beaten up (/ beaten) (Roshio s'est fait laminer)…
So I guess he didn't get killed. -

Robby : Why did you ignore the part when I explain why Monet's case is different (in my point of view) ?
Because its NOT different. The specifics of a character don't matter when its the author's overall tone and track record that says everything.
Even without the clear shot of the heart not being stabbed, I'd still stand by her being alive and getting into coverstory territory eventually.
Its not about Monet. It's about Oda.
Who has done it every single time except for East Blue examples when the stories were far shorter and a 25 chapter cover story plus 8 weeks of strawhats with animals and colorspreads would easily outlast an arc.
And Foxy… I'm not sure what the deal is there aside from the fact Skypiea got two cover stories and Baroque Works and CP9's were more important to the plot and had to be done before the strawhat separation and timeskip... but I'm sure we'll eventually see the results of his losing the Davy Back... I always assumed he got absorbed into Buggy's group but we didn't see him in the most recent appearance, so who knows. (He didn't even show up in the Around the World catchup thing... even though Wapol did. So Oda is saving him for something.)
The timing on the next coverstory is hard to figure, because its too soon to do Dresserossa, but because Punk Hazard tied right into it, there's now like a 3 year backlog. ANd I sort of assume they'll meet up with the other members. So I'm not quite sure what the next coverstory will be in a couple weeks but I would guess MAYBE Smoker/Tashigi/Brownbeard and the kids, if Oda's not ready to follow up on the villains. It took a while to get around to the Baroque Works one after all.
-
Because its NOT different. The specifics of a character don't matter when its the author's overall tone and track record that says everything.
So you think that Monet, who was ready to blow herself up for the sake of Doflamingo, is just going to move on and open a pet store ?

I agree with you. I checked the Japanese version, & I found that what's written in that speech bubble is 'graveyard' (墓地) (hakaba). Grave or graveyard is associated with death, so I believe that that's the message that Oda-sensei wanted to convey to us in the past; however, he can always bring Roshio back from the dead as someone who refused to die because of his grudge against Bellamy for what he did to him in the past. It's a reasonable possibility(in my opinion).
To support this scenario, watch this video. I promise that you won't regret it:

-

She failed to do it, and while she was unconscious, he was defeated and things crumbled. She's going to wake up in a very different world. Like every other loyal minion before her.
What she does after that, I have no idea. There's nothing to speculate with. I never would have guessed the Gedatsu would go to Alabasta and start digging wells, or that Mr. 1 would have wanted to be a superhero,or that Caribou would look identical to a revolutionary leader… because that's a weird ass thing Oda does. Pet shop owner was off the cuff example. Birds and flight and all.
But yes, I more or less forsee a general repeat of the Baroque set, just because there were so many minions that arc. She and Vergo weren't at Dresserossa, so they weren't arrested. They wake up and go to rescue remnants. (We can already assume Jack was successful in getting Dofla himself away from authorities.) We get little dreams for them, some go one way, and some another. Some to do simple things, some to end up with Dofla wherever he went to show up again in 10 years for the series finale war.
I can analyze and tell pretty closely on things Oda has played fair on, the overall plot, and his thematics as a creator. I can't know anything about brand new characters or extreme plot twists with no foreshadowing.
-
Speaking of Bellamy, since, at the beginning of Dressrosa, when he meets Luffy, he says that all his crew died while he was going to Skypiea, does that mean that Sarquiss died too ?

But what if Kaido kills Doflamingo ?
And why would the Family tear apart ? They're as close to each other as the straw hats are between them. As I said before, the BW agents do not have the same relations between themselves as the Doflamingo Family members do.
So whatever happens to them will not be a "general repeat of the Baroque set" as you say. -

Again, phrasing is important. DId he say "My crew died" or did he say "I lost my crew". (Hint, he said the second thing) That can mean a loooot of things. Like he lost their respect when Dofla beat him up, or his ship fell apart in the knock up stream and they split then, the Skypeia culture changed them all and they stayed behind, any number of things. It's very vague.
Especially given that he ultimately never provided any details on his stay in skypeia, except for the fact it changed his outlook (and he came away with a gold pillar) it might be a safer bet to think the culture there (and Luffy being such a huge hero) affected him.
But what if Kaido kills Doflamingo ?
What purpose would that serve the story now? Luffy already broke his power.. and Kaidou as already demonstrated how badass he is. Him killing a wounded Dofla wouldn't serve any point in terms of plot or hype.

All these things did happen, indeed, but since it was mentioned that 90 (99?)% of the pirates trying to reach Skypiea die, I would say that Bellamy's nakamas died too (didn't he say that he "lost" his crew while going to Skypiea ? I don't really remember).
What purpose would that serve the story now? Luffy already broke his power.. and Kaidou as already demonstrated how badass he is. Him killing a wounded Dofla wouldn't serve any point in terms of plot or hype.
Absolutely no purpose to the story, but does there need to be a purpose ?
Kaido was shown to be a merciless and cruel pirate. He killed Moria's crew-mates. Law's plan implied that Kaido would kill Doflamingo if the factory came to be destroyed. Doflamingo, who always acts cool, in any situation, gets stressed out when Law reminds him that.
But– he may need still need him for the "Final War" that he's preparing. And Doflamingo knows something really important about Marijoie.Yeah well, the "Doflamingo getting killed" example was bad, but what I'm trying to say is that anything could happen. You can't just predict things basing on what happened before and expect that Oda would repeat the exact same scheme all over again.
-
but what I'm trying to say is that anything could happen. You can't just predict things basing on what happened before and expect that Oda would repeat the exact same scheme all over again.
Thats a common conceit with One Piece because Oda is good at plot twists and wacky new crazy to see characters and things, but its really, really not true.
Anything could happen… like an elephant is an island! Absolutely.
Anything could happen... like Luffy and Blackbeard could decide to peacefully resolve their disputes with just words. Not a chance.
Anything could happen... that wacky guy in a dog mask could be Luffy's grandfather! Sure.
Anything coul happen, Mihawk might die before we see the battle between him and Zoro! No way.
Oda plays extremely fair with his story structure, foreshadowing, and world building. The broad strokes, like Blackbeard will kill Shanks, and One Piece will contain the true history which will launch a war, or Sabo is alive! can be accurately predicted years in advance, based on story structure and the author's habits and how he works in general. The little details, especially new characters or locations, that we haven't seen at all, that's where he's most unpredictable and a weird unexpected thing can show up. Plot twists, where he delibirately held back information, like Ace is Roger's son and that Luffy has a third brother... can't be called in advance because there's nothing to base that on.
No one could have guessed that Kuma would split the strawhats, or that Zoro would train directly under Mihawk... but the need for a timeskip and training was really apparent by that point and especially after the war.. and had always been in the cards due to Coby.
I can't tell you if Kaidou or Big Mom will be beaten first, since we're focusing a lot on Kaidou at the moment an know he's involved in Wano... but an educated guess would be that Big Mom will fall first since Kaidou has now been hyped as the strongest thing, while BM is holding back Jinbe joining and has already been steadily attacked by other pirates and shown off her minions at length. Most likely we're going to get a mix and match over the next couple years and they'll both fall at about the same time rather than getting four year arcs each.
(And actually, anyone guessing Garp was his grandfather before Water 7 would have been pure luck guessing and only right by accident.) It is absolutely NOT the case that anything can happen. Lots of surprising things can occur, and the details will vary a lot... but the broad strokes of how the world works and what will come at some point are readily predictable.
-
I guess the reason Monet is argued about is because her supposed death had an odd of ring of finality to it, unlike most in which the deathblow is cut away at the last second or cut away to a distant explosion.
But, yeah, for all we know Vegapunk has her living brain floating in a jar in his WG laboratory categorized as "PH02F" alongside the specimens of Fisher Tiger and Gold D.Roger awaiting further pacifista-related cybernetic experiments.
At this point the only solid proof of death would be someone else getting or finding the Snow-Snow fruit later on, as is the case with Ace.
-
@Joy_Boy's_Will:
Completely forgot about kin'emon. I hope he joins, he's sure been around a long time.
Being out of focus doesn't help him. He was pretty much a tertiary character during Dressrosa and is now sharing the spotlight with Kanjuro. And he's been put on a bus again.

I have never seen the term "grave" being used figuratively to not indicate somebody's death.
Also, the blue databook confirms his death. This was back in 2002, so it's possible Oda was more involved with databooks than he is now.

Yeah, but then in the One Piece Ten Adventure Log book his bounty poster doesn't have the deceased writing on it like the other characters.

There's really no sure way to know based on any of these books.

I agree mostly with Robby. Not to say Kaptayn doesn't have some valid thoughts.
The doflamingo crew cover story should be next. We will find out the truth fairly quickly.

Even Luffy thinks the Minks look too much like Chopper.

looks like a bunch of slots for the crew just opened up XD
jk

Ya, for me that heavily hints a mink won't be added to the crew. Plus what I said before about Jinbe-as a crew member- representing all the oppressed tribes, making it unlikely a mink will join the crew. imo
-
With a Minkmen in the crew, the SH would have too many animals…Chopper, Jimbe and a Minkmen? Is this a zoo? :ninja:

Monet is dead too…
(I'm kidding, I'm kidding... :ninja:)While I don't think that any Mink will join the crew, I wonder where they will go now that all of their race has been massacred (?) and their island destroyed. Will they seek for revenge upon Kaido (or whoever is responsible for that) ? Or will they stay on Zou and rebuild the entire island ?
But if the Minks that are supposed to be dead are still alive (and since characters don't usually die in One Piece... that's it, I said it, it's quite likely), like, under a spell or something (like the Swirly Hats I guess), then I believe someone like Carott may join the crew to, dunno, become stronger or something.
'Would be cool if a character from every single race was in Luffy's crew or at least in the Alliance (which is the case right now considering that Bepo is a Mink).
