EDIT: LOL@ weeabos saying manga aren't comics
@Deltron:
There is nothing more stupid in this forum than the Fire Fist Ace Holy Church of "I CAN JUSTIFY ANY BULLSHIT I WANT BY STATING OP IS FULL OF CARZY STUFF."
It's the laziest shit in the world.
"YO GUYS CHECK DIS THEORY OF LUFFY BEIN A WOMAN"
"What thats stupid."
"UH UH, NIGGAS BE TURNIN INTO GIRAFFES AND SHIT, HOW YOU GONNA SAY LUFFY CANT BE A WOMAN."
Shut up.
Secondly, dismissing exceptions only works when the exceptions are anomalies rather than blatant examples of why there is no rule whatsoever in terms of bounties being power levels.
Thirdly the hell am I supposed to be looking at in those scans? None of theme say anything about power whatsoever.
Bounties are big mash ups of dozens of factors, including to some extent power, but also cruelty of actions, distruption, trickyness of ability, anti-government stance etc etc.
There's no exact science involved, using them as power levels like they're some DBZ shit is ridiculous.
Congrats dude, your retarded.
Apperently "Intelligence" "Comprehesion" and "Competence" aren't things you use on a regular basis, so I'll have to spell it out for you.
When in fiction there is such thing as a "World goverment" Obviously more sane members of society are going to assume the political accuracy of the comic to be faulty. Your crappy example of "LUFFY IZ A WOMEN" is irrelevant due to the fact somebody turning into an animal has nothing to do with the gender of average human, there is no un-realistic gender-related issues in the manga as of yet, and it's doubtful such a plot point will appear later. It would only be an valid theroy if, say, Oda introduced an item of some sort which switches the gender someone, and a main character had all ready fallen victem to the switch at birth, and is now stuck as the oppisite sex for life. But that's not the case, therefore that sentence "Luffy is a woman" is invalid. Whereas we already know there are unrealist political aspects, so my theroy is valid.
My predicted response for the above paragraph "OH HAY CALM DWON IT WAZ JUST AN EXAMPLE!" But it was was your only arguement, now thats out of the way I can just prove my point further.
The last leap in bounties for the crew was at the end of the CP9 saga, while Franky had 44 million, Zoro had 120 million, and Luffy had 300 million. Is it really that hard to figure out why Zoro and Luffy got higher bounties? Franky Defeated 3 members of CP9 (One of whom was the leader), plus burned the blueprints for the warship. Luffy and Zoro defeated 1 member of CP9 each. They are all on the same rank bar Spandam So therefore it's blindly obvious the level of bounties was according to the strength of the enemies defeated.
Although I did say "Bounties=strength", that was just me being trolltastic because I was sick of people bitching like bounties can't be used as a valid estimate of strength. The bounties do depend on other conponents, but mainly strength. Get over it.
In conclusion, you have the intelligence of a duck. and I'm not talking Karoo here either.
Hugs and Kisses
