Jimbone Tallshanks posted:How long do you think that's gonna get animated for there will be a lot of empty space as it zooms in on the back of his head and then the camera will rotate for like ten seconds towards the front of his face before snapping to the expression which will then zoom in 4 times with a gong sound effect each time and then linger there for about 5 seconds as his mouth opens a little bit more and then there will be a second shot where he expresses shock through a lot of body movement while saying something unique to the anime. also every character will have a reaction shot like franky afterwards. so, 2 minutes.

The lighting and color palette will be good so no one will acknowledge how hosed the pacing of it was.

In an entire chapter of gold, this was the diamond. And hey, Zoro cut one of Queen's laser's in half back in Wano. This is just One Piece logic. You train hard enough, soon you can cut\kick\punch whatever you like. Just wait until Nika challenges the abstract concepts of Time\Space themselves to a fistfight. Spanish Matlock posted:Looks like Kizaru is done. Spoilers for the most recent chapter, obvs I had this same thing in my head at that point. "What the gently caress is Wano?!" I seriously love the interaction between Bonney and G5 Luffy this chapter. The just child-like argument of "your punch sucked" "oh yeah you do better", and his cartoon physics. And with what we know of Bonney's powers, I'm sure her using her own version of that same move will come up soon.

I'm not sure why it's striking me as remarkable, but Lucci is as strong as an admiral now, right? Considering he's fighting Zoro to a stand still (maybe even leading a little) and Zoro's stronger than Sanji, and Sanji just made Kizaru piss himself a little? Then again deflecting a single kick isn't the same thing as a victory. But I'm surprised Lucci is still running around doing skullduggery nonsense after all this years if he's grown proportionately stronger since the timekskip. Maybe he just really likes the job?

Sorry but agenda dictates that Lucci is a bum above all else. This means currently Sanji is indeed stronger than Zoro, and Zoro is currently a gigantic fraud (taking after his master)

Back in Enies Lobby he made clear that he liked the violence part of the job and not so much the pretend to be friends with people for five years stuff, so he probably loving loves his new job.

Considering he's fighting Zoro to a stand still (maybe even leading a little) and Zoro's stronger than Sanji, and Sanji just made Kizaru piss himself a little? Eh, one thing I've always liked about One Piece is that it's always been fine with having plenty of strong folk out there outside of any power structure it's developed. That's why it worked when they brought in two new people (unknown to the readers at the time) to be admirals after the time skip. It's never felt contrived when other powerful individuals show up, like in the Dressrosa tournament, cause the world is a big place and full of wonderful characters. Lucci has been long sent up as a prodigy of martial arts, and he's the strongest of the Government's super super secret assassination department. It makes sense he'd be no slouch. The other nice thing about One Piece has been though that "Power Levels" as such have always been a bit nebulous. It makes sense for the story for those two to be fighting right now, it's a good moment having someone that was once the big villain of another arc now no longer on the same level as the protagonist, and Sanji getting a moment like that is great for showing off that "the two arms of the future Pirate King" are right where they need to be power wise. Even if you wanted to say that in an allout fight to the death, they couldn't defeat an Admiral on their own yet, they're still now at the point where they can't be so easily brushed aside. Kizaru just can't lightspeed kick them all away like he did make in Sabody anymore, it's always going to be a fight to put them down.

I know I'm pretty new to OP but having just read and watched everything, it seems like power is nonsense and fights just happen however is convenient to serve the plot and timing of events

I could believe Lucci is as strong as an admiral at this point. Sure Gear 5 dumpstered him pretty quickly, but I think Kizaru only did as well as he did against Luffy because he was able to use Egghead’s laser defenses in his favor

Like, yes, ultimately everything happening is convenient to serve the plot because that's what storytelling is – but OP's world building around this stuff in particular is uniquely consistent from pretty early on. Second half of the story has largely been about the crew growing enough to be able to topple the emperors, and the looooooooong journey to that is what makes it stand out imo.

But we ignore dumb powerscaling minutia like that because hot drat that guy just kicked a laser.

There's probably just also a practical element of "I need a reason to keep these two heavy hitters busy off screen" going on too. Hell, use that as an in-universe reason too if you like. Both Zoro and Lucci could tip the scales for their side, they need to be kept away from the action.

I guess Zoro did get some really badass fights in Wano including facing down two warlords, so sitting out an arc fighting only the awakened form of a previous mega-villain is a fair tradeoff.

The only time this series has ever presented actual hard-number power levels, Lucci was the top scorer. Therefore, we have more evidence for him being the strongest fighter in the world than anyone else

Valentin posted:so sanji presumably blocks/refracts that light with his invisibility somehow, right? I hate to ruin the power of love, but in the panel he says that, his eyebrow is reversed. Which also happened in Wano when he was relying on his family's powers. Also, reposting

Irony Be My Shield posted:Marineford was also good for establishing the top dogs of the pirates and the navy and their place in the world, something that post-timeskip has consistently respected. Re: Reverse Mountain, manning it was basically Smoker's job. (Presumably there are other Marines who guard the entrances to the Grand Line from the other Blues). The anime screws this up by putting a filler arc between Loguetown and Reverse Mountain, but the manga gives the impression that they're very close. As for Crocodile, I tend to assume he got weaker after losing to Whitebeard, then got back in shape in prison after losing to Luffy.

I'm honestly glad that Sanji is getting a moment of comparable impact by kicking away Kizaru's laser.

Nope sorry, you're wrong. Sanji's star is rising while Zoro's is falling. That's what you get for training under the world's strongest fraud.
