robins design makes way less sense than namis does. if you want to criticize oda for applying conventional attractiveness where its not needed look no further than nico robin why is she built like that and for what reason. especially during some of the framing shots in EL when she's getting dragged- I've seen nobody talk about those but they ick me out

you see this is why criticisms against namis design specifically doesn't work. it's fundamentally a good design for the character she is. (could it be changed to be less conventional? yeah. but there is an strong argument for it being that conventional)

the problem is that oda draws every female character like that. indiscriminately.

if just nami was drawn like that i bet most people wouldn't have a problem and would get the point of her design

nami as a character is a commentary on how people perceive women within the context of hyperfemininity. ignoring her personality for her boobs is what idiots do in canon and she gets the one up on them. you are being played if you ignore her character for her boobs as a "feminist" criticism.

my biggest pet peeve and I'm a major hypocrite for this (see: usopp) is when someone is negatively neurotic about a character publicly. in fairness to me i've skated by my whole career with people never assuming I disliked usopp in the first place because I was self aware and accounted for it.

(so i'm not that much of a hypocrite.)

my biggest complaint is when people externalize this as "rational" with no self awareness whatsoever. like the yaoi girls who hate nami because of internalized sexism but will call it feminism when they ignore her character for her boobs (which is the entire conceit of how people perceive her in canon, good job)

in general I could identify most problems with how people treat characters as an unwillingness to recognize their own biases. there's a reason why the reaction to usopp or nami on a fandom level is predictable.

i do hate it when people make disliking a character their whole personality but I have to hate on lucci. because he sucks. you don't understand if I don't say I dislike him the world will fall apart

#modposts #i dont outright dislike or even are neutral on many one piece characters #i get my one. lucci is my one #hes just mildly annoying and it gets me

You know that meme? Yeah I think they fit perfectly

Usopp also finally getting to say to Robin "go back to your crew and greet them with a smile" because it's bittersweet because he thinks he'll never be able to do that again.

Franky and Robin not immediately getting along (Franky initially finding her frustrating and stubborn for good reason) and then when she swifts her mentality you can see how much she is willing to be open with franky immediately because of his comfort

the little interaction franky and sanji have where sanji asks about the franky family (despite being reluctant and mad at franky at first he has paid attention to him) and then they're pronounced dead and franky says if luffy is dead he won't accept it because his family put all of their lives on him and saving franky. and its presumably what they'd want him to do and so he does it.

#modposts #the subtle character writing there is insane #from sanji having been paying attention to franky enough to read him and allow him opportunities to open up and then. #franky placing all his bets on luffy #meta

Spanda is well written lucci is like the filler villain so he can have funny moments where he obviously hates him and so luffy can fight someone. I don't think if Lucci was replaced anybody would miss him. All of the rest of cp9 are if not a little tropey at least fun and kind of well written. Lucci.... you fuck

I think Rob Lucci isn't really a good character, and he isn't hot either (lying about the latter) but he is a catboy. And surely that's something

Can we address that Zoro is a furry? He's not a furry in the sense he's an anthropomorphic animal but he is A Furry. In the way that normal human beings are furries
