I'd say that's kinda harsh tbh.
Basically all of the SH's were captured at some point or another and Luffy was put through an 11 hour battle by one of the commanders.
It's the terrifying and erratic punishment system that Big Mom uses that's really messed things up here, not just x, y and z being outright incompetent.
As I say before I am not judging them as individuals but as a unit.
And now all the strawhats are free in some fashion and having realize pretty much all there objectives while our antagonist are still mostly blind to the situation and hiding their escapes.
Big Mom punishment might be the reason for their incompetence - Which seems like an easy excuse when they could work together and keep her in the dark- but their incompetence still exist. They lack cohesion(latest proof being Bobbin), they lack communication(Opera and Brulee), they are doing a poor job with their incredible intel(still being in the dark on Luffy and Jimbe).
They may have plenty of great individuals but as a unit they are clearly lacking.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
With One Piece I learned to accept the fact Luffy will become PK through the sheer incompetent of his rivals. Mihawk was wrong about Luffy greatest ability instead of turning rivals into allies it's turning them incompetent muppets.
Meh. Luffy has an awesome and was the most baddass pirate of his generation by quite a margin. No matter how Oda bloat the others bounties it won't change that. Most crew really did try their best with what they had. The only crew to hinder would be Doffly's and Big Mom. But even in Doffly's case it was mostly just the captain shooting himself on the foot and the rest try as much as they could.
How does brook get a boner?
Brook is a boner. Why do you think he's so obsessed with panties? Yohoho.
Thanks guys . :) Cheer me up
It's been a while since One piece made me laught out loud.
Brook for MVP of the arc.
About Mum crew, there is this French saying (i guess there is the equivalent elsewhere) "One choose his friends not his family"
It’s quite appropriate for this arc. Oda shows that a crew based on family bond (especially with a tyranical mother) cannot compare with a crew based on friendship bond
This is what Sanji learned way back in Baratie.
!
Yet this is the kind of mentality Sanji has had throughout WCI.
!
Having a sad backstory =/= character development
Being a multidimensional character =/= character development.
Change = character development
Growth = character development
And Only Zoro had Character development and no other Strawhat.
Lets say a character gets a sad flashback. He goes through all these character defining moments, but then as soon as the next island comes up we hit the reset button and its as if none of that just happened.
Then that is an example of a lack of character development despite getting more insight on the character and having these moments.
Usopp shows regression at times (Dressrosa). Luffy is a pretty stagnant character tbh. You would think he would change after Ace's death, but he acts almost identical to how he was pre timeskip.
Zoro went from putting his goal > Luffy.
!
To putting Luffy's life > his goal.
!
To throwing his pride away (and he is extremely prideful) bowing down to his end goal for Luffy, and train for Luffy rather than just the WSS.
!
Zoro is also much more serious than he was pre timeskip, he went from a nonchalant person to keeping Luffy in check.
!
He cares a lot for the moves the strawhats make, before he used to allow Luffy to make decisions on a whim, sleeping 99% of the time, but the New World and his changed role in the strawhats demand him to do this, in his mind atleast.
!
In other words he is much more serious now than ever.
Zoro completely molded from simply a strong fighter in the strawhats to Luffy's right hand man (VC mentality). He showed some of the most growth among the SHs. Whether people like his pre ts laid back character over the current more serious character is a complaint of personality preference not character development.
@Count Mario @Kaido king of the beast I have come all the way from another forum to get to see what you have to say about this?
Not my thoughts but a random guys.
Stuff
My response ended up being way too long so I decided to spoiler it. Hopefully the person that is writing will be able to understand it.
! This arc isn't over yet.
That's a good point.
I wonder if Oda will draw those parellelisms, betwen when Sanji and Luffy first met and the similar situation now, before the arc is over.
Not saying that the current arc is bad, I'm enjoying it, but now that I saw that I think it would improve it.
But I don't think Ussop shows regression, at most he's stagnant.
He's always afraid of everything new/diferent that may seem scary but he goes anyway if he has to. Then boasts about not being scared at all.
He wants to be a brave man of the seas and you can only be brave when you face your fears.
Thanks for bringing up that Luffy-Sanji moment. Considering Oda has flashbacked to the Baratie before, in this arc, it'd be neat if we callback to that moment in question.
@Hellisme:
Lets say a character gets a sad flashback. He goes through all these character defining moments, but then as soon as the next island comes up we hit the reset button and its as if none of that just happened.
Not that this statement isn't unfounded, but I think it's incorrect to apply it all so broadly.
You don't see Robin suddenly becoming withdrawn and mysterious after Enies Lobby. She became more intertwined into the crew's wackiness.
Yet this is the kind of mentality Sanji has had throughout WCI.
And literally a few pages later he realizes that he was being an idiot. Not only that, he's had a similar mentality since at least a far back as Thriller Bark, where he tried to sacrifice himself to Kuma (and arguably even further back during Skypeia, when he saved Nami and Usopp from Eneru).
Challenge 1: Is big mom and her minions looking like top pirates of one piece world. No
Challenge 2: Did Oda have another chapter with useless spreads to drag the arc even more. Yes.
Challenge 3: Oda made sure to forcefully bash luffy's passion for his mates in the audiences heads because he is brilliant. Always.
This is what Sanji learned way back in Baratie.
Yet this is the kind of mentality Sanji has had throughout WCI.
Except that this mentality has been a consistent character trait of Sanji throughout the entire manga up until this point.

Traits can make for both positive and negative moments. It's all about how they're curbed in relation to the situation at hand, now what they are in and of themselves. As seen in Sanji's selfless actions in Skypiea and Thriller Bark. Or regarding Zoro's pride, how stern he was about not letting Usopp back into the crew without an apology in the Post-Enies Lobby arc. Oda tried to do the same with Sanji's chivalry, but that's just Oda advocating a stupid, obsolete cultural mindset that should not be portrayed in a positive light. But Oda's not changing at this point, so it's not worth making a note of it.
The entire point of Sanji's character development in the Baratie arc was to learn that he it is worthwhile to risk your life to pursue your dream and that you shouldn't disparage yourself with irrational, nonexistent obligations/debts to your loved ones. And he came out wanting to become a pirate that can search for All-Blue. He grew. But that didn't get rid of his trait of reckless selflessness completely, and it wasn't supposed to. The same applies to Zoro's pride and Usopp's cowardice. These are cornerstones of their characterizations that give them their identities in the first place. Just because they get character development on those fronts to make those traits not go overboard does not mean that they will or should be completely erased. That is both unrealistic and detrimental to why they're individuals. People don't just get over an insecurity they have after overcoming just once in a more minor situation before encountering a newer and more intimidating/traumatic experience. That's just silly and ignorant. Just because Usopp built up the nerve to fight against Kuro in Syrup Village doesn't mean he's going to be fearless during Arlong Park and Alabasta. That's preposterous. There are flaws in all of us that take as long as years to confront/fully come to terms with in a variety of applications. And that's what makes them all the more compelling to get engrossed in through a fictional lens meant to reference and inspire people in real life. Otherwise, characters are just fully developed in their first arc or even arc. Which, needless, is pretty freaking boring and redundant to have a story based around unless it's a series based around the supporting cast's growth in response to the protagonist's attributes like One-Punch Man. If we're going to play this game, then I might as well falsely state that Luffy saving Robin at the end of Alabasta makes her character development in Water 7/Enies Lobby of building up her will to live and have faith in others superfluous.
Also, each trial that pushes a character to get internal development can be similar and different simultaneously. In the Baratie, Sanji didn't have to deal with his father figure's life, his new true family, and his own hands that he holds pride in being used as extortion stakes from a family that always belittled him as being a worthless failure who is blasphemous towards their expectations for royal, biologically-enhanced, apathetic progenies. The message is similar to the Baratie's, but not in a way that makes this arc redundant. It's meant to provide continuity to Sanji's struggles as a character. Pushing him into new stakes, circumstances, and nuanced meaning with a consistent general topic. Oda's not pretending that Sanji's development during the Baratie arc didn't happen. He's doing this BECAUSE IT HAPPENED. All Sanji had to build up the will for in the Baratie arc was being able to risk his debt and something tangible like the ship to fight. In Totland, he actually has other people's lives on the line based on every choice he makes. People who are family to him. He can't just decide to fight through the odds like Luffy, whose logic in this arc is also stubbornly flawed. Because beating up the bad guy in charge like usual can't work here. Sanji's stakes this time are the people who mean dearest to him as a testament to how far he has come in appreciating the Straw Hats as well as himself. This is meant to test what Sanji has learned and struggled with to see if those lessons can extend to situations as tense as Totland's, and thus reveal and even deeper and inspiring conviction behind such ideals. Which is why we can still find superhero stories entertaining even though they continually redecorate the same overall moral of not killing and building up valor. Sanji needs to learn he needs to trust his friends in being to help him besides just fighting and that subjugating yourself with whatever rules your captors make is not a reliable strategy, because you all you have is their word.
So before you post pages from the source material like that, make sure you try to get the full content of that scene/arc into view. Like posting the page right before it:
!
!
Zoro's character development theme is pride. Usopp's character development theme is cowardice. Sanji's character development theme is selflessness. That's all there is to it, and doesn't mean they should all be one-in-done cases than properly fleshed out and explored in all sorts of awe-inspiringly engrossing dynamics to make some awesome stories to read. Not that the story can't ever focus on other aspects of their multi-dimensional characters, because thing should be switched up to not make things monotonous, of course.
The only real gripe I have about Sanji's character arc in Totland is Oda making Sani give a whole "I betrayed you/I don't care about you" monologue to Luffy and Nami similar to what Nami and Robin did. I expect more creativity from Oda and Sanji should know that wouldn't work. However, going as far as physically beating up Luffy, which neither of those girls did, helps make up for that. And he only succumbed to his state of despair after trying to act rebellious to the Vinsmokes and ending up seeing Cosette get beaten up. So he had a front row seat of seeing how any hasty actions could get other hurt. Oh, and the Vinsmokes themselves are two-dimensional and don't add anything to Sanji's internal struggles flashback-wise, but that's a whole other subject lol.
Having a sad backstory =/= character development
Being a multidimensional character =/= character development.
These are both true.
Change = character development
Growth = character development
Actually, there's a difference between these terms. It's understandably not noticeable to some people until it's broken down for them. See, character change/development is meant to define the specific moments where characters surpass their internal inhibitions and finally acknowledge why they were were wrong or flawed in their mindset. Character growth goes for moments that take place AFTER instances of change/development, and are meant to showcase how much a character has come in their journey to reference past experiences where they first became enlightened and stronger inside/out.
To give an example, Zoro losing Mihawk in the Baratie arc to learn just how much of a small fry he was compared to the big leagues. Therefore promising Luffy that he will never lose again and tying into his dedication towards helping Luffy become the Pirate King. That's character CHANGE/DEVELOPMENT. In contrast, Zoro being willing to sacrifice his life and pride to Kuma and Mihawk respectively were signs of character GROWTH. Showing how much Zoro's grown to care about his crewmates. In that moment, Zoro didn't hesitate in the slightest in making his decision. There was no struggle or need to change there, because he already underwent said changes over the course of the story to those specific points in time. What Sanji's going through now in Totland is very much character development as it's pushing his ideals, personality quirks, and bonds to the brink as he constantly hesitates and gets his morale broken down.
And Only Zoro had Character development and no other Strawhat.
That statement has as much validity as Usopp's lies. Who, ironically, is actually the Straw Hat with the most prevalent character development throughout the series. As seen in Syrup Village, Arlong Park, Alabasta, the whole Water 7 saga, Post-Marineford, Punk Hazard, and Dressrosa.
Lets say a character gets a sad flashback. He goes through all these character defining moments, but then as soon as the next island comes up we hit the reset button and its as if none of that just happened.
I can understand how that's disappointing for some, but One Piece as a series isn't meant to heavily focus on the Straw Hats themselves all of the time. If anything, most of the arcs are about seeing how the casts of the islands themselves develop in response to the Straw Hats. The development for the Straw Hats themselves are sparsely spread out, and in a way that's more meaningful special for when they do get intimate focus. A character getting character development does not mean that their traits linked to their past struggles suddenly get completely erased, or that their issues are completely solved to never become relevant again. Like I said before, that would actually be bad characterization and take away from what makes them unique characters. They just shouldn't make the exact same mistakes in similar circumstances again and come to terms with themselves more.
Then that is an example of a lack of character development despite getting more insight on the character and having these moments.
Usopp shows regression at times (Dressrosa). Luffy is a pretty stagnant character tbh. You would think he would change after Ace's death, but he acts almost identical to how he was pre timeskip.
The Dressrosa incident for Usopp was a bit messy, but people have come up with decent excuses for it. Such as forgetting Robin in that moment, which in turn may erase a bunch of pivotal moments in how he's stepped up his courage like burning the flag at Enies Lobby and sniping Spandam to save Robin. Also, it was the first time that Usopp had to protect the lives of people who weren't close friends, but random individuals who held Usopp up to a high pedestal because of believing his lies. So it was also a test of Usopp living up to other peoples' expectations. I would preferred a different execution to that scene so that explanations like these could be highlighted, but Dressrosa as a whole is what it is and hopefully Wano Country will not be a repeat.
I've seen that type of complaint aimed towards Luffy, but it's because of his flawed, yet insightfully simple personality that makes him an entertaining protagonist. Having him become more serious and worldly would be boring, and would actually go against how he was able to inspire so many people up until now in the series despite his palpable stupidity and rashness. And that was also not the point of Ace's death, which was supposed to convince Luffy that he wasn't strong enough for the New World, that he can't just wing everything and expect to save everybody at his current level, and to deal with grief while realizing the worth of his crew. He saved and motivated all of them, and they in turn indirectly saved and motivated him. Which is why they trained, so as to catch up with the rest of the series' powerful factions and characters. He doesn't need to become Zoro or Law or anything, that would be a big turn-off. They needed to build-up the strength to not have to be forced to run away like they did in Sabaody Archipelago. That's pretty much it. And we see that when he tangos with Fujitora in Dressrosa and says that now he doesn't and shouldn't have to run away like he did pre-timeskip.
Zoro went from putting his goal > Luffy.

Those are all pretty damn great moments that help give subtle, yet profound moments of character growth for Zoro. If only other Straw Hats displayed moments like those as well.

And blander. Which is certainly a great testament to Mihawk's character, or lack of it for better wording.

Whether people like his pre ts laid back character over the current more serious character is a complaint of personality preference not character development.
It is an issue with personality preference (not that it makes such a complaint any less valid).
Additionally, I argue that Jimbei makes for more of a Vice Captain than Zoro (not that I don't see where you're coming from). Zoro makes for more of a charismatic front-lining soldier than really being suited to the assortment of responsibilities a First Mate has to deal with.
@Count Mario @Kaido king of the beast I have come all the way from another forum to get to see what you have to say about this?
Sorry for Kaido's response. He decided to dump all of this onto me. And he's the one who always the one who defend's Sanji's character integrity while I'm ironically more likely to criticize his logic.
So… The moral of the day is that Kaido King of the Beasts is a lazy ass who pushes duties onto others. Tsk tsk tsk.
Not my thoughts but a random guys.
I hope he or she decides to join the forum then, or for you to participate more in expressing your own thoughts. There's never enough analyzers around here, and all you need to be proficient in a social environment with other competent people is to humbly listen and think objectively. It's never about being right for the sake of being right, but helping everybody gain more insight into how the series ticks to accurately acknowledge both its flaws and attributes. I'll always respect someone who's willing to admit when they're wrong more than always happening to be right on the first go. That shows you value the truth more than superficial complacency.
That's just my advice I've come to learn from all of the years of foruming. Not that you asked about it, but I like to reassure people about that since it's easy to forget.
Can we ban Screwtape now? It is starting to getting annoying.

Challenge 1: Is big mom and her minions looking like top pirates of one piece world. No
She has an army of decently strong people and we saw what Luffy could do to Ennias Lobby with that. So it isn't that surprising that she's on a top seat. Most crew have a large number of fodder. I would agree that their lack of competence it's a problem if you are to respect them as one of the best crew out there.
Challenge 2: Did Oda have another chapter with useless spreads to drag the arc even more. Yes.
I son't think Oda is trying to drag. Dressrosa was. On this one Oda tends to cut corners. However he is trying to recapture his magic with humor and page that helps leave an impact.
Challenge 3: Oda made sure to forcefully bash luffy's passion for his mates in the audiences heads because he is brilliant. Always.
Indeed Sanji's struggle is one time to many of the same trope.
Just wanted to say that I enjoyed reading Count Mario's last big post.
It makes me want to love one piece even more by reading it more seriously (I realise I wasn't..)
Gonna lurk the topic to see if anybody already noticed and explained how exactly Sanji's changes of mind made the least of sense in his character developpement, because yeah that's still something difficult to grasp for me
Thanks Count I truly enjoyed reading all those panels again. And I couldn't agree more especially on your ideology on foruming

I'd much rather drink and sleep than answer questions of that nature and kill minks :wub::wub:
Although really, I'd hopefully have written the same argument though in a much less concise manner. And while we don't always agree on Sanji's character I do agree that he hasn't been acting as he should be, but the main point I wanted to get across before I got too lazy was that people seem to believe that Sanji's behavior now won't ever change or somehow affects his character permanently, when it's the middle of the arc and he's at his lowest point for good reason.

If you feel insecure about posting your thoughts publicly out of the fear that your perception may be flawed, then just be humble enough to take it as motivation. Motivation specifically aimed towards enlightening yourself by seeing other people's posts and having them correct you. Give the benefit of the doubt towards the compassion of other users by being king, because you're likely to get informative and polite feedback. And if not, then the trauma helps you learn even more lol.

I don't think you're all that familiar with my posts if you think they can't be more concise. Especially compared to how succinctly eloquent Daz can be lol.

Of course. It's all part of a character arc, and one that Sanji needs. I merely think it's flaws to think that it's redundant at this point of the story or that Sanji's actions are justifiable in an objective logical sense. He's already learning right now, and that's the way it should be.
Well, maybe not concise, but gets the point across better.
I was gonna add my two cents into the convo, but Count's two dollars had my message in it and more.
To add to Count Mario's Wall that KBB paid for, Luffy has actually shown character growth by the amount of responsibility he takes on. As the good Count said, Luffy's casual attitude is what makes him a fun protagonist and it would be a mistake to toss that aside. It's not always apparent, but Luffy IS very aware of his status as a notorious pirate with a lot of connections. He understands that his position allows him to protect and fight for groups of people and even whole islands, not just for individuals. While he does sometimes fixate on random reasonings and his strongest motivations come from protecting those he knows well, his speeches to Hody and Doflamingo are both based on his desire to help the entire population and the knowledge that he's the one most capable of doing so. Luffy's still a loveable airhead, but his ability to get to the crux of a situation has become more pronounced.
Having a sad backstory =/= character development
Being a multidimensional character =/= character development.
Change = character development
Growth = character development.
I think i have said several time myself that One Piece is not a character growth manga.
But is that bad ? It just means Oda focus on other aspects of his story and his characters. It’s the fault of the reader to hope Usopp will stopbeing a coward when it will never happen
Only those who feel fear can be trully brave.
Why am I getting the feeling you're planning on writing Big MomXBrook fan fiction? :wassat:
No need, the unambiguous fact it was canon for awhile is vindication enough. Notice how Linlin never even so much as considered putting Brook in one of her books, what they had was special, try as it might fan fiction will never replicate it. The memories will live on in my soul and in my bones.
Honestly my first, horrifying thought was "Did Brook see her panties?"
What's even scarier is that Brook probably would get to see them if he asked.
I can see brook getting much higher places now in the next official popularity poll. I think last time, he was like number 17? But after this arc, he will be grouped among the other strawhats most definitely. He was always among my favorite Straw Hats, but in this arc, he is killing it. Decimating Homies, holding his own against Big Mom, hurting her most powerful homie trio, steeling the porneglyphs, being totally nonchalant about it, and having some cozy times with big mom herself (to be honest, I kinda expect Big Mom to be preggers now with a little skeleton baby [a big boned skeleton with beautiful pink Afro locks])
How does brook get a boner?
Brook is a boner. Why do you think he's so obsessed with panties? Yohoho.
He lift his longer finger, ready for action.
Oh, don't we all make a wonderful posse? Excellent observations everyone, very insightful.
Don't have a cow man.
For people wondering about Bobin the Fixer, The disposer, The Killer.
Basically all of them are correct.
"The Fixer, he will kill you and fix the problem (like by disposing of you)
"The Disposer, he will dispose of you if required"
He's Basically a hitman, I've seen the Japanese refer to him as "殺し屋 Bobin" which means killer or hitman.

You used to be a lot more chill.
I can at least agree that BM's crew aren't looking like top pirates at the moment. I've no doubt that they are more than capable, but it seems Oda opted for showing them as more quirky and less badass. Their reluctance to bring bad news to BM might just be a testament of how scary she really is.
Nepotism, though. Sometimes it bites you on the ass.

But he can't kill Sanji D:
What reallly concerns Bobbin is his ability. I can see that he makes sleep those two, takes Sanji and leave, Luffy while sleeping just eats the bento because he's hungry, wakes up full energy and tries to remember how his hunger ceased to end thinking that Sanji fed him and goes to save him.

I can see why it's annoying to some members, but users like him make things a little more interesting. This place would be a little boring if there weren't members with silly complaints. Which may not be so silly to some.
It's even more interesting when the complaints have legitimate reasoning behind them. I'm not even saying that to be snarky; I'm a lot more engaged/challenged by people who have (perhaps scathing) criticism that's well-founded in hard reason.
@Count:
Maybe Bobbin can make Sanji's legs fall asleep. :ninja:
Bobbin wants to put to sleep Sanji and Luffy but when he arrives they are sleeping already because they are too tired and haven't slept for 2 days.
Screwtape his harmless. If he annoys you that much, you add him to your ignore list and that will prevent us to have this useless discussion each week.

Well that goes without saying.

Lol, same. I often wonder what he'd make of this arc. There are no marines involved, so…

Ugh, Darth got to an unsustainable point. He was fine at first, but his complaints became increasingly unreasonable and personal. Most of it was "Why Oda treat marines like this? Marines are the best because they're authoritarian and that's cool!" He was going around defending military dictatorships. That's why he was fascinated by the marines. Not to mention his subsequent comebacks and the chances he was given to respectably return but ended up just becoming a troll again. Just take the examples of Daz, Count Mario, desa. I usually see them criticize the chapters but in a constructive, reasonable, well argumented way. Well, you too, now that I mention it! Darth was just an ass after a while…
