The Farther You Get Into One Piece The More You Realize Just How Ridiculous Kuina's Death Was

the farther you get into one piece the more you realize just how ridiculous kuina's death was

I direct you to the first post??? I wouldn't argue that one piece isn't inclusive, especially in the first 400 episodes!!! It's cool that there was that much diversity in a Japanese anime.

But that's kind of the thing right?

The FIRST 400 EPISODES were inclusive, because they had shades darker than pale. Everything post time skip is complete whitewashing. It's doesn't matter if usopp is "supposed" to be black when he is literaly the same shade as everyone else. And still has the big lip design.

Also, all of thier villans???? Being mostly black?????

Law being like one of the only other protags of color doesn't even count when you add in the fact that he's getting whitewashed too. They all are.

I would rethink some things here bud. Like, don't get me wrong, I REALLY like one piece! I'm in aces arc right now. But you have to be able to admit that there are flaws in the thing you love. Especially flaws that effect so many people and how people of color are viewed in media. That's what representation is! And it dam sure can be harmful.

made a chart of the straw hats' skin tones with the colors being screencapped directly from the episodes, to show how much they've lightened. this is more than just an "artstyle change" or "design evolution" or "just the timeskip" this is blatant racism/colorism. it's fucking ridiculous and i don't understand how toei is continuously getting away with it please reblog btw, i think this is something people should see

Alright sluts, I need some opinions.

I am currently writing a CrocMom au that has gone to far wild and completely out of my control. I have most of the plot surrounding Luffy and Crocodile's backstory and connection figured out, that's not the problem. What IS the problem is that Crocodile is to much of a whore. Crocodile has up to at least five potential love interests that I could throw at him (not including Dragon cause that has to happen for, y'know, conception.)

Buggy, Mihawk, Buggy & Mihawk, Dolflamingo, Shanks, Corozon ECT.

Now, I know some of those options might not make sense, but see, a writers mind is an unending fucking mine field of insanity, and I would be able to make those options work pretty well.

Buggy and Mihawk would most definitely make the most sense, as they are pretty canon in their interactions and I have been itching to write cross-guild anyways.

Shanks? Knowing that Crocodile created basically his kid and also could kill him at any time and is also hooking up with his two ex's? That man is already a skank and has probably dated at least half the one piece verse, this is not far fetched.

Dolflamingo? They are the ones with the most cannon interaction and could make for a very good psychological warfare/angsty fic, but also, Dolflomingo. So like, gross.

And the last and most crackship, rarepair shit I could ever think of. Cora and Crocodile. Now, in my fic, I start with Crocodile on Ohara to involve Olvia and Robin into his cannon universe (This is also trans!Crocodile, so he's a woman right now, but he transitions after Luffy's birth) and so I can give him an excuse to adopt Robin later when she's around like, 11.

So, you have a Crocodile that fits just snuggly enough into the timeline and does not have enough trauma yet (in my universe at the least) and who has already given birth to Luffy and is already slightly regretting leaving him and who has already adopted Robin. I think that there would be a really high possibility that Crocodile would meet Cora and be like "look at this sad, pathetic, wet-cat, clumsy single father. Would be a shame if someone was to just grab it.". Which would then inadvertently save Cora's life, especially if Crocodile helped get the heart fruit and then brought them back to Alabasta.

I also wanna clarify, I don't think Law would see Crocodile as a father figure. It took fuckin forever for him to trust Cora, and that was with sacrifices that spited both hell and high water. I think Crocodile would more be seen as a mentor, especially if Law would still want to get back at Dolflamingo. Cora might try to stop that. Cora would want what's best for his son.

Crocodile? Dramatic-time-to -murder-the second-strongest-pirate-of-all-time bitch? 100% would support.

Also, the possibility of Robin and Law shenanigans kind of gets my goat.

Plus, if you add in Luffy, Ace, and Sabo, it would be chaotic as fuck, and kind of amazing!

As you can tell, I am slightly leaning more to one of these options than the others (totally not just because I want to write a Cora lives au) and I think that Cora is one of the only One Piece men that Crocodile would genuinely consider sticking with because of the way he treats other people and his kids. The possibilities are fucking endless.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I would take anything into consideration and I have to decide before I write the Dragon/Revolutionary chapter.

The world problems of a one piece fic writer, man.

"One Piece gets good at episode 400!!!" is a shit take that only exists because shonen meatriders who couldn't appreciate the story for what it is,skipped 100s of episodes and only watched the part of the series that had a major war with several strong guys punching each other in it.

One Piece is a story about adventure, friendship and dreams.The premise of the story is that of a 17 year old boy setting sail to gather himself a pirate crew ,go on adventures and fulfill his dream of finding the world's biggest treasure, the One Piece.

It's natural for the story to be slow at the start because that's part of the journey. The first saga focuses on Luffy,the protagonist, gathering his first 4 crew members afterall. (It doesn't even take that long for him to gather them,the 5th Straw Hat is introduced around episode 20 and that's were the story starts to pick up significantly).

Anyways if you ever watch One Piece and find yourself not enjoying it, it's not because "the story only gets good 300 episodes later" it's because you simply don't find yourself enjoying this series. There is no reason to force yourself to continue it or buy into the crap that it only gets better much later.
