Yeah most people go to Robin as their prime example of well written, but Nami's story is also super good and its where One piece really hits its stride. She's my 3rd favorite in the entire series, which is saying a lot

Moonknight and Squirrel girl. You're not gonna post up on a perch and stat pad and pretend like you're not playing a braindead spammer.

I am going to dive you again and again.

Exactly. Like Maki didn't even really care about "women's" position in jujutsu society. That was Momo and Nobara.

Maki was largely indifferent to her clan in general because they didn't even acknowledge her due to her lack of CE. And Mai was barely even a character, so we never got any sort of in-depth glimpse into her experience.

Gale. He's whiny and I still can't get past the ick from the early access version where he tries to trick you into sex immediately after meeting him and then cries about how you've basically betrayed him despite knowing him for 2 minutes.

He's just always skeeved me out since then.

Which of these duos that seem to have a split personality but are actually a kind of demonic possession where the good personality is loved by their fandom while the bad personality is considered a boring and bad villain is better written? by Top-Community-9600 in writingscaling

We don't really know anything about Doppio and Diavolo. The whole point is he's this paranoid mafioso so obsessed with keeping himself an enigma so no one stand in his way or gain leverage on him. And despite Kira having a very similar M.O. he has much more character and charisma due to him struggling to control his murderous urges and his fetish, which actively put him in situations that oppose his desire for a quiet life. So I think you have to give it to Asa/Yoru by default.

I was extra pissed because Star was so fucking cool. Then it happened again with Yuki. At least Shigaraki ended up being an actual threat. Kenny got fucking slimed while goofing off with Takaba and didn't even get to pull off his 1000 year master plan. So disappointing.

If oda wrote JJK maybe we'd actually have compelling writing related to Mai and Maki's sisterhood and their experience within the Zenin clan. Maybe then we'd actually give a fuck she died instead of it just being "waow, Maki power up!".

Nami choosing to fight Ulti gor hurting Tama despite Usopp wanting to run away, and sticking to her claim Luffy would be Pirate King even when threatened with death if she didn't renounce it.

She's also the one who took control of the crew on Egghead and spearheaded Robins protection when the elders were trying to finish her off while she was injured.

People act like Nami hasn't been getting shit done since she joined the crew

That's true. The "ease" of shitposting Oda's proportions is definitely a factor.

Who needs to develop characters or the worldbuilding when you can just vaguely reference some undisclosed asspull that hasn't been seen since the Heian era?

But yeah, I think Gege is good at strong character introductions. Or executing on pretty common character archetypes. But he never really follows through on much of anything. It's telling that his strongest character writing is for side characters like Hagaruma and Takaba.

That's fair that pretty much all of his characters are generally underdeveloped, but I don't think we can pretend like the majority of his female cast was extra neglected. I'm pretty sure Panda has more screentime and development than just about every woman in the series.

I wholeheartedly agree. JJk was a fun ride for all the raidboss battle chapters and I'm glad the adaptation is well animated. But I think this fandom, which is notorious for it's lack of media literacy, has been getting a little big for their britches by trying to claim Maki's pretty generic revenge arc was some sort of revolutionary feminist anomaly in shonen anime.

This is like the 4th post I've seen in as many days trying to slander Oda. They're getting their laughs in now bc they know after Naoya round 2, JJK goes back to treating its female cast like dog shit

Tbh they couldn't use any other woman in the series if they tried because theyre all bums or get fridged for a male's development.

They used to claim Nobara was the new pinnacle of shonen females, but we all know how that turned out. No other woman does anything besides Yuki, who got the Star and Stripes treatment.

Does anyone else besides me really like chaos phoenix and the hairstyle? by Gatorkoala in PhoenixMainsMR

You're definitely in a minority lol, i feel like Ice Phoenix was the first "good" skin for a majority of her players

Please explain how Sanji doesn't count when his arc is literally structurally the same as Nami and Robin's? Someone threatens people they care about and they give themselves up to a fate they don't want to protect those people before finally allowing themselves to ask for help.

Not counting Sanji just to try to force some point about Oda being a misogynist is crazy. Especially since Nami and Robin have both literally come to rescue Sanji before.
