The joke is Ace doesn't know how to spell his own name. The twist is that Ace was in on the joke. The crossed out s is both a self deprecating joke and a tribute to Sabo.

Could have sworn he had the tat when he faced off against Jinbe.

In Chapter 552 he has it when attempting to assassinate Whitebeard but not while fighting Jinbei because Oda forgets sometimes

But is it an error? As I was saying, he doesn't have it before getting in whitebeard's crew and has it after. What's the canon regarding when he got the tattoo? Is there even any indication?

Nah, given Luffy and the Monkey clan's attitudes never mentioning him until it was relevant is par for the course. Sabo was probably thought up at the same time or before Ace's design complete with tattoo.

it wouldn't surprise me if oda had thought of sabo earlier but the way he's introduced is pretty weak and so is his flashback when he reunites with luffy in dressrosa. it would have been better if there'd been more hints about his existence before the summit war flashback I don't dislike sabo or anything but the way he's wedged into the story feels a lot clumsier than anyone else in one piece

Gyges posted:Nah, given Luffy and the Monkey clan's attitudes never mentioning him until it was relevant is par for the course Yeah, like remember how Luffy just casually never mentioned that his grandfather was a Marine Vice Admiral because it was never relevant until after Enies Lobby when he just showed up? Sabo's introduction is virtually identical.

Considering Oda originally didn't intend the story to go on nearly this long I can buy him having the idea for a third brother to be revealed halfway through. The fact that it took 15 years for this to happen makes it seem like he made Sabo up on the spot, but either way is plausible.

garp and ace aren't introduced in a flashback where they have a death fakeout, then reintroduced later with the excuse for why they'd never shown up again being that they had amnesia luffy just not mentioning who his family is feels a lot different to who sabo was handled

Sabo is one of the few things in the series that feels thrown in at the last minute vs Oda's usual trend of planning things out years ahead. He shows up not too long after Ace is no longer around, which feels a lot like someone higher up said "Everyone really likes/liked Ace, if you have to kill him can you at least add this." type feel. Still, despite his Malibu-Stacey-With-New-Hat vibe, I've really come around to Sabo, and I enjoy him and his place in the story. Plus he hangs out with Koala who's cool, and Hack, who has the series' most bitchin' mustache, so he's alright by me. Rich Uncle Chet fucked around with this message at 17:33 on Jul 5, 2017 |

Yeah I totally dig that and though I like Sabo so far he hasn't really proven that he's more than that. I'm sure he will in time.

Sabo is honestly fine as a character, he's got a decent design and some pretty good motivations. He doesn't have a ton of personality, though, and his introduction is the single most contrived thing in the history of One Piece, so I can't blame anyone for being too mad at the guy either.

I'm interested in Sabo more as an agent of Dragon than as a character in his own right. I'd be interested in future scenes of Sabo evading CP0, trying to recruit Aokiji, and so forth.
