I haven't seen or read much of One Piece, but it's set in an Age of Sail, and people ITT are complaining because there's monarchies and the Straw Hats haven't independently invented communism?

Luffy is an anarchist. So is Blackbeard but in a rude way.

It’s a fictional world and you can do whatever you want with that. I don’t have a stake in this discussion since I haven’t read or watched One Piece, I just wanted to say you can do whatever you want in fiction and that includes an Age of Sail setting where everyone is anarcho-syndicalists or something

They're definitely a faction who would wave the One Piece equivalent of the hammer and sickle.

Casey Finnigan posted:while we're talking about cultural differences Americans love wish fulfillment backfire stuff like Madoka. We also have our own sayings regarding the careful wording of wishes such as the Monkey's Paw or the Wish spell in DnD or etc. Doraemon's art style probably doesn't appeal to adults, so they don't bother showing it to kids. And it's not like US kids are walking around with a doraemon backpack if they can get Chikorita, so word of mouth doesn't spread as much. And you'd probably have to to watch any episodes in English.

I mean, sure, if you have cable or the disney channel then you could see Doraemon. But crunchyroll has anime for free, so anything they show off will be much easier to stream.

triple post, but some aspects of this show are similar to classic TV shows I Dream of Jeannie and Bewitched. A powerful being uses their abilities to fit in society and support someone who is important to them.

Oda fully won me over when Luffy punched the gently caress out of that celestial dragon at the slave auction. I mean One Piece was pretty good up until that point but everything after that punch was sublime top tier Battle Shonen. edit: i love usopp Popy has issued a correction as of 00:34 on Apr 30, 2022 |

i didn't get very far into One Piece but the conqueror's haki stuff sounds lame. oh yeah you're super strong cause, uh, your bloodline is kingly and your dad was influential or i guess it's not even that. it's just lame in concept to have an abritrary super power based off nothing concrete, that only some people have Casey Finnigan has issued a correction as of 01:28 on Apr 30, 2022 |

Casey Finnigan posted:i didn't get very far into One Piece but the conqueror's haki stuff sounds lame. It doesn't really bug me as much as these tropes usually do, largely because as far as we know it really isn't a hereditary thing. We know you can't train to unlock it, you either awaken it on your own or you don't and only about 1 in a million are capable of doing so, but tbh I always got the sense that it was less a thing that you were born with specifically and more that just, you have to be a really specific kind of person with a particular mindset and personality to do it.

even if you completely skip all the filler episodes there has to be at least 100 hours of characters talking while running. scenes that in the anime last 5 minutes but you can read in 5 seconds in the manga

it's pretty remarkable how oda's ability to draw women is inversely proportional to his ability to draw anything else.
