I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
I just rewatched this arc. Small spoilers: Luffy never once asks him to join his crew but says multiple times that Bon Clay is his best friend, which I don't think he says about anyone else in the series

e: Well he does call a lot of people his friend, but never as much as he keeps saying it to Bon Clay

luffy thinks a lot of things are cool tho.

I feel like it was their Devil Fruit ability because Luffy absolutely loves impressions, but then it turned into their sincerity and noble heart.

He also forced a guy into a woman's body and just left him that way. That was pretty hosed up.

oda strikes me as a person with good opinions filtered through a bad society

also we got the best pun of all time out of it:

Ivankov is actually based off a dude he met while watching Luffy’s VA do theater, and actually does a fantastic job of voicing him in the anime...until he got arrested for posting a NWS picture on his own website, because Japan is cool like that.

If I recall correctly he was proving he had tattoo's on EVERY part of his body. But yeah arresting someone for posting an indecent image on their own site seems kind of extreme.

I thought the guy got involved with some illegal stuff. But yeah, it's not the last time Oda's based someone on a RL person. He based Whitebeard on the owner of a bar he used to go to who passed away.

The anime also had a filler scene where Ivankov turned a guard into a woman and he was so happy he helped them navigate the jail.

That's a shame, he goes really in-depth about the fight between Luffy and Katakuri and why he feels Katakuri is such a strong character.

I watched more of it than I should because One Piece is neat and it's fun to relive through other people's reactions, even if they're pretty cringy.

I regret it. The guy's insufferable and unironically called Katakuri a "Chad" shortly after a digression where he pastes Flampe's face on a video of a woman being beaten.

Katakuri is super cool, if it gets better after that god awful intro maybe I'll-

Nope, thanks for the recon work Captain Eiba, I'm gonna stick to my guns. I like enthusiasm and people liking things plenty, but I'll go ahead and continue giving that one a hard pass.

Yeah, in hindsight thinking back on it he's pretty bad at parts. I kept going through and ultimately found his points interesting and he made Katakuri and their fight more interesting than I had thought when I sped through the fight myself, but I did repress/zoned out when he was bad. I apologize.

Watched it. Some presentation issues as people pointed out but he makes a decent point. I'm not intricately familiar with all of One Piece's characters at the level presented in the video, but he basically points out that Katakuri is a pretty human dude that had a traumatic childhood moment that changed him. Which is like, all of One Piece's characters. I think the author must relate to the issues he feels Katakuri addresses (social anxiety), which means he likes him best. Fandom.

In fairness, Katakuri is really cool and the guy does point out why that is, and that's cool.

One of my favorite bits in the Katakuri fight is near the end where Luffy's on his back throwing a little tantrum about being hungry and Katakuri asks him how the gently caress he can be so undignified and you know that on some level it's because Katakuri wishes he could get away with being so undignified. I loved Katakuri as a mirror-Luffy who learned from Luffy and presumably became a better person himself rather than being some cautionary tale for Luffy.

That little bit with Katakuri and Brûlée after the fight was one of the best parts in the whole arc.
