Which character was most disappointing when revealed as fodder?
-
-
A rookie who's ready for the new world himself. It wouldn't surprise me if he was able to cause the Straw hats some kind of trouble.
If he causes any sort of trouble, the 2 year time skip was a waste.
-
he was talking about if ace listened to whitebeard about not going after blackbeard not only would have ace not died but whitebeard would have not died either however for his theory to be correct luffy would have taken aces place because blackbeard was after luffy till ace showed up
This is silly. You can't exactly blame Ace for doing something Oda WROTE for him to do. Oda wrote he should go after BB, Oda wrote for him to be beaten.; Oda wrote that be that stubborn bastard, just like his father, Roger was when someone insulted those he cared for.
Whatever though, English isn't everyone's first, second or even third language. I personally am pretty underwhelmed by Ace myself. A Logia that won….. anything? Dude was given short shrift for sure.
As a 17 year old Rookie, he was already fighting on equal terms with Jinbei, a Shichbukai….and was offered the postion too. I fail to see what part of him was ever fodder to begin with.
Hell, we can say Blackbeard was fodder because Whitebeard owned him like a bitch, even when he was on the verge of death. Almost dead WB > Full strength Blackbeard
-
All fodders are fodder who eat fodd. true story.

Anybody who seriously thinks Ace is fodder is nuts.

A whole lot of this forum is nuts then. I see people saying this all the time, and it's well annoying.

Luffy was a fodder during the Marine Ford arc.
To HIGH TIER people, and caps because there are very few of those shichibukai, Admirals, Sengoku, Garp, Sentomaru, Smoker, Iva, and commanders, and obviously WB, but I think you could make a debate about wheter he was at The new world captains levels or VA's levels (since I think there both on par) and you've got to remember during the war he was basically running on fumes as it showed when he got to the VA's he had basically nothing left and they just kicked the shit out of him
but to lead the charge in such a way and basically becoming the turning point in the war to me would take him out of fodder class, he was to big a part of the war to be considered fodder, that's like saying Iva's fodder cause he can't beat or probably fight with WB
-
That dalmatian VA is a poor man's Rob Lucci. Luffy would have kicked his ass if he were energized.
-
Peterman . If he had fought with Brook , think of the possibilities .
That and Doughty .
-
Bellamy. Richochet powers versus rubber powers could have been amazing. I was looking forward to it.
Then he was the recipient of a 1HKO. That was badass on Luffy's part, but a waste of a potentially interesting fight.
-
don't diss my favorite fight, boy
-
I said it was badass on Luffy's part, didn't I?
I'd still like to see a proper richochet/rubber battle though with tons on momentum and high speeds involved and both players basically bouncing off any attacks that hit them.
Course, Bellamy seemed able to only make springs out of his feet, so maybe it was never to be.

I tink u be severely underestimating the strength of the Vice-Admirals. All of em use haki…and are experts in various rokushiki techniques.

That fight had no possibility. Bellamy was at a complete disadvantage.
The most disappointing person when revealed as a fodder was in a way Usopp. While I see him as an amazing fighter and crew member he had so much potential that Oda didn't really play out. His appearance was so amazing. He was famous throughout the village, he was a kind person and was very brave. He definitely should have had more fights in part one. All his epicness was mostly from his ability to face his fears have complete faith in Luffy and making epic speeches.
Though I think this will change. Oda did say that he wanted Usopp to be weak so that people can be inspired by his inner strenght and watch him grow stronger, so that we could be inspired to grow with him. It's true I know if I was still a kid I would be greatly inspired by Usopp and i'm kinda inspired by him now. The way he cares more for his pride than his on life, never grew up with the harsh training Luffy, Zoro or Sanji had but still strives to be strong so that he can make Luffy the Pirate King. Yea he's not disappointing at all I just hope he gets more fights and has a huge impact on the pirate world.
-
You are correct about Usopp. I thought of how amazing it was when Zoro and Sanji were going to lay themselves down for Luffy, but if you watch Alabasta you will notice Usopp doing the same thing. I couldn't stand Miss Merry Christmas but I loved Usopp standing up for Luffy. I really think you should watch the Usopp vs Merry Christmas fight again.
-
I was kinda disappointed that the only battle Usopp seemed to show his true potential in was his fight against Luffy. He's willing to go all own against his own nakama but not enemies who want to kill them?

(Referring to the dalmatian DF VA)
VA's may be strong but wasn't it stated somewhere that Rob Lucci was the strongest Human(Human/Zoan) out there in terms of physical strength and fighting power as a solid being.
I'm annoyed that I can't remember when this was said, it might have been in the anime and therefore possibly not cannon but I think he was stronger than VA's personally. -
@Mr.:

I think the important phrase here is "who want to kill them?". He knew Luffy wasn't going to kill him so he could go all out without having to worry about the consequences.
Also I thought he did pretty well in his fight against Perona.

Think of it this way: Going Merry was nakama to everyone on the crew, and Ussop knew what fate awaited her. His fight against Luffy was the only instance where he had to fight, all his own in both effort and goal, to protect the life of a nakama.

Saldeath, didn't do anything; ever.

Where's all the Brownbeard supporters? Or were they all trolls?
Zik Of The 7 Swords: Vision? What do you know about my vision? My vision would turn your world upside down, tear asunder your illusions, and send the sanctuary of your own ignorance crashing down around you. Now ask yourself, Are you ready to see that vision?

being fat does not make you a fodder.

Brownbeard sucked from the beginning.

All that means is that Jyabura, CP9, and Fukurou never rated any high⊤ tiers.

I would have to say that I was pretty disappointed about Erik "The Whirlwind". I know that he was a Filler character, but the ability to slice people apart with razor-sharp blades made of goddamn air could have had so much more potential and might of actually made Erik as formidable a badass foe as Kuro or Arlong back then if he had proper mastery over his Devil Fruit.
Shame he tripped and drowned. Comically.
Someone married their stepmom and then got murdered?
Sounds like he used a monkey paw to make a porno story come true.
Then the curse of the paw eventually killed him.
-
Erik was cool until I found out people could slice air without a devil fruit ability.
Anyways Anime filler should be mentioned in the Anime section

thread says fodder, not fatter. :D
-
Hm the giants in Marineford were kind of disappointing. I expected an epic battle between them and Oars but they were only devices to show off Oars' determination and were disposed off rather quickly.
Now I hope the giants in the New World will be a lot stronger at least.
-
Elbaf Giants.
They're sure to be in the New World, hopefully…:o
-
Squardo. I know he wasn't really a fodder, but all my expectations about his strength after stabbing WB and all the hype about "redeeming himself" ended up in a very disappointing "fodderish" way for me.
I was banned from HxH thread b/c Robby disagrees with my opinion. 
-
Enil and arlong
…..... -

Its pretty obvious he is reallly really strong. Maybe Oda decided not to show off how strong he was, we could yet see him in the future…

There are clearly stronger Zoan users out there i.e Sengoku, Marco

Are you sure about this? because it's either you read it the wrong way or you don't actually believe it, which would be funny.

I immediately googled it and found such info given in a SBS. Amazing.
naruto was WAY MORE KICKASS after the timeskip
i mean to show his badassness, him and sakura managed to get the bell from kakashi. beating pacifista's is so lame compared to that awesomeness
-

What kind of info?

What kind of info?
That Sengoku ate the Hito Hito no Mi: Daibutsu model. I didn't expect it to be a Zoan type.
P.S: I just giggled at the possibility of seeing Hito Hito no Mi: Jesus Christ model. Or Satan model. LOL.

Wow interesting … although probably unlikely due to the misunderstanding over the symbol Whitebeard was originally using.:getlost:
-
Enil and arlong
….....I always thought that a fodder is a character that was created solely with the purpose of showing another characters strength? I don't think arlong and enel are actually fodders…
-
Hammond.
16 chars dammit!
-
Yeah, Enel and Arlong definitely aren't fodder…personally, I think that they were actually pretty badass, most 'specially Enel...:P
-
Fodder is characters easily beaten with little effort. In what way were the battles with Arlong and Enel easy for Luffy? haha!
Crazy posters are crazy -
Well I'm hoping Hammond and his crew aren't fodder, at least in the sense that they'll be minor characters. This is only because I love the Octopus Merman's design. My favorite so far post timeskip outside of the Straw Hat pirates.

Maybe usopp or nami can take them on.
-
A lot of the Baroque Works agents are fodder. They built them up like they were really amazing if they had a number over 13, but they weren´t anything special
-
T-Bone. He's my favourite character but didn't even get a nice fight although he looks original, his personality is great etc. And I fear there's no hope for him (I still think the VAs will be important sometime).
I do hope though that the Giant Squad won't have the same fate. Of course they were all beaten up in the war, but they fought the strongest enemies (WB, Oars jr).
The war was disappointing because of this but also I liked beacuse at least they were introduced and did something. Not all of them though. -
Lol at everyone being surprised Hammond was fodder.
Saw that shit coming.
