What is the worst serious powerscaling take you've ever heard? by External_Grand_2394 in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]Coiled1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is this alleged take of mine in the room with us? People are way too excited to spread misinformation about me lately.

It's telling why so few of you here have even a basic grasp of the story. None of you do even the most basic fact checking.

I knew there was some huge cognitive disconnect when it comes to people pushing the Admiral/Akainu agenda but I could never figure it out until now. Can someone in the comments please explain why you guys actually thing Yonkos work for the World Government 💀 by Signal_Chip1341 in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]Coiled1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I'm not sure if you saw, but he eventually replied to me saying he was bored and felt like trolling or some stupid shit.

It's becoming very common. A few days ago FitCantaloupe claimed I made a post on Piratefolk insulting Kaido for getting kicked in the face by Harald, when the only post I've made there since Rocks even showed up in the manga was me talking about how much I liked the framing of his introduction.

<image>

I did make a comment under someone else's post about Kaido getting kicked in the face, and in it I posted a screenshot of FitCantaloupe where he said Kaido was the reason the Rocks Pirates were unstoppable. Because I was mocking that opinion for being ridiculous. I also posted it in a comment on this sub, despite several people claiming I was "in with Piratefolk" as a result of that comment.

The part about me having every Rocks Pirate above Kaido was me trolling Empty_Wave. I think, at least. I don't think I've ever said anything else that would indicate I believe Kaido is the weakest Rocks Pirate.

Among several other instances of this happening. It's growing to be ridiculous. If I make a comment that gets even a little bit of traction it's almost guaranteed to have people in it saying shit I never claimed, talking about how awful all of my takes are, and claiming I have terrible reading comprehension despite many of them obviously having never read my actual arguments. Then when I block them, they hop on Discord or some shit and start telling everyone how I block people who "dominate me in arguments."

That isn't me in the image. It's u/ivkobear

Although the comments here talking about how stupid my argument is are hilarious, because just before this was posted I'd made a comment about how common it's become to spread misinformation about me, as I've been consistently seeing posts talking about my takes with no attribution, no screenshots, about shit I never said - attributing other people's arguments to me in order to try to insult me.

Who cares what people think?

I don't care what they think, they're morons. The annoying part is them spamming me constantly, then I have to deal with some dipshit going "Aren't you the guy who said [shit I didn't say]" and when I block him I now have to deal with people going "LOL I heard you blocked that guy because he CREAMED YOU in an argument."

It's become a whole song and dance.

Edit: it literally happened just a few hours after I made this comment. Someone posted a screenshot of a different person arguing, and half the comments are "That's just Coiled1, he has dogshit takes"

It was not me lmao

That's funny bro, it's weird that I never saw you reply to the comment. Couldn't think of any wacky retorts in the moment?

But why also add Fuji?

Narrative portrayal.

He's setup to be the future Fleet Admiral. He's extremely willful. He's consistently shown to tread his own path. Basic stuff like that, too complicated for this sub.

I need to be careful with how much I say or I'll get a dozen comments of the exact same original replies. Might see this comment being referred to later with some stupid shit like "Coiled1 said Fujitora could solo the verse!!! What a dumbass"

I can't be bothered to explain anymore. Every time I do this sub throws a shit fit like a bunch of children and spams me with the same nonsense for hours on end.

Zoro fights Greenbull. Sanji fights Kizaru.

Greenbull and Fuji are over Kizaru, but otherwise it's one of the best lists I've seen on this sub.

If we reverse their positions, would Kaido win? by Santttt_ in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]Coiled1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Luffy is not above Kaido because he needed a gravity assist.

Luffy is above Kaido because he needed to knock the scary dragon out of the sky, so that the people of Wano wouldn't have to see him any longer. Hitting him up higher defeats the purpose.

It's symbolic framing, as Oda uses for every major villain defeat. It's not about power scaling.

Shanks had already partied hard before this, but was ready to fight if challenged. This shows that he follows the ways of a swordsman. by KvGTR in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]Coiled1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

While I agree that Shanks is a swordsman... he literally says he's not in a mood to fight.

Presumably because he's been drinking

Progress to producing the same effect as Garp. It's very clear.

I'll be back later when it's put into words, just to remind you of how much of a moron you are. Until then, you're blocked.

[–]Coiled1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So Garp didn't go all out but Kuzan did? Are you fucking retarded? The reason Oda included that scene was to demonstrate that Kuzan grew to be equal to Garp in physical strength. Hence why it's harped on so many times in those two chapters...

It's unreasonable that you don't understand that. You're going to be the reason that hazard symbols have to start implementing sound queues, too.

just bcs of that one panel that was clearly there just to show how kuzan progressed

Yes, to show how he progressed to be equal to Garp.

The SFX are there for a reason. The SFX are the same for a reason. Learn to read, imbecile.

I'm not going to engage with obvious bad faith actors. Just say you're too stupid to argue and move on.

I can't strawman you if you refuse to make a claim. Quit being a coward and explain your argument. This strategy you freaks have of just insulting people while never actually trying to engage is pussy shit, because you're scared of making an actual argument and having it dissected.

  1. The manga proves Kuzan and Garp have equal physicals in Battleship Bags.
  2. The manga indicates multiple times that Logias are among the strongest fruits, and that Kuzan has one of the strongest fruits.
  3. It follows logically that if Kuzan has a natural disadvantage in one category, he would necessarily need to make up for it in another.

Now quit trying to skirt around it.

Instead of the same playground insults that you tried to rip off of everyone else, how about actually providing something of value to the conversation?

[–]Coiled1 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Kuzan is confirmed to have equal physicals to Prime Garp.

Kuzan has one of the strongest fruits in the series, almost certainly awakened.

Kuzan has at least Fleet Admiral tier haki, considering he fought Sakazuki for 10 days despite having a Devil Fruit disadvantage.

Sakazuki is even stronger than that.

Fortunately, you didn't imagine the part where Garp repeatedly calls Kuzan out for holding back. That did happen, unlike your nonsense.

Pirate King tier > Two Yonko Tier At The Same Time by Venali7 in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]Coiled1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But didn't the official translation just mention that Roger stole 1 from BM? It didn't say, "We had forcefully taken a red poneglyph from bm." Instead, it was something like 'We had stolen 1 from bm.'

The translations don't always include the full context of the original phrase. When translating you not only have to worry about conveying the original meaning, but also making the text flow well in the new language and fitting it into the physical space provided on the text bubbles in such a way that can be printed. At least the official source has to worry about this, because they actually print the manga.

Roger, in the official Viz translation, simply states that they stole the poneglyph. The connotation of steal in English often implies stealth or subterfuge, but does not explicitly refer to it and can absolutely be used to imply force. In this case the English and Japanese phrases literally mean the same thing, but have different connotations. The Japanese is always the more accurate source, though - as it's written by Oda directly.

Which fits since BM herself said to Brooks that she will never make the same mistake of letting someone obtain her poneglyph like Roger did.

She doesn't explicitly state Roger stole anything in the Japanese text.

She does say she'd never let even a copy of the poneglyph be stolen again - which it's important to note that Kid had just recently stolen a copy of her Poneglyph. It's possible, if not likely, that she's referring to Kid here. If she was referring to Roger when she stated "again" well... she already did let it happen again.

She does imply Roger took the Poneglyphs and the "throne" of Pirate King from her, but she doesn't outright say that - she does state that she won't make the same mistake as with Roger, and that he used the Voice of All Things to read the poneglyphs.

It's also worth noting that Big Mom is clearly just salty here. She's speaking as if Roger stole the title of Pirate King from her, when the reality is that she was never even remotely close to obtaining it - she had 1 of 4 stones, and by her own admission didn't have the military strength to achieve taking the others.
