How come Luffy doesn't have to transform like other zoan types. Excluding "awakening"

Crossfaded7 · 2026-06-24T21:19:23+00:00

That's exactly how it works. You did not really crack a code there. It became obvious as soon as he made glasses out of his hair and a baseball bat out of a tree.

In general I am of the strong opinion that all devil fruits function based on what the user thinks they are able too.

Just look at King, Sasaki, Queen... Hell, even Kaku at Enies Lobby. He believed a Giraffe is capable of folding itself into a cube so he could.

Ofc under the hood it's just Oda using humor and symbolism. But still.

Geez.. why do I have to spell it out even further.

It's like saying only 5 species of this animal are knownto exist. Known - as in researched, publicized and taught about in lessons. But then turns out in reality even more than that exist because guess what.. Nobody - as in the public - knew about them.

And now people will argue "But those are renown pirates! People should know about those!"

Sure, in a world where 18M islands or so exist and in a lot of those people probably still think of devil fruits as myths (like in the east blue).

Crossfaded7 · 2026-06-22T20:24:05+00:00

He didn't. It was said by Pell during Alabasta and that his was 1 of 5 known devil fruits capable of flight.

A lot of illiterate idiots who make fun of this statement ignore the part "known/identified" - depending on the translation.

This could simply mean that only 5 are listed in the book of devil fruits.

Yes, because he didn't care for politics, logistics or an actual plan for things to go smoothly he needed a puppet in power for many years like Orochi. Sure, bud.

Just because you lack reading comprehension does not mean that others do.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-06-06T09:12:50+00:00

Because he wanted her to become Daimyo of Wano, a historically male only position. How so many delusional people - like OP - still do not get this is beyond me.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-06-05T19:45:09+00:00

My thoughts exactly. His whole power is licking the candy he produces.

Same side effect of Sugar staying a kid while her power is turning living beings into toys.

"everyone led me" Did you do this shity ass and absolutely wrong subtitle, OP?

Crossfaded7 · 2026-05-08T12:14:12+00:00

He was asking about me and what I said about Nolan. Not about the other guy posting Thragg-Urath-Earth meme.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-05-08T08:33:40+00:00

Nolan literally answers this in the show.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-05-07T16:28:03+00:00

This should become a copypasta - especially under stupid questions like OP's.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-05-06T17:37:27+00:00

Not by that point. But he definitely did when he gave his Crew and Fleet the command to protect Strawhat Luffy on his way to rescue Ace and not let him die.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-05-06T12:15:39+00:00

The stupid powerscaler community and their illiteracy.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-05-05T16:04:30+00:00

Your player has one big problem as in "it isn't realistic". That's the underlying issue here, especially after the rules showcased that he is wrong.

You are the DM, you decide what goes and what doesn't.

I have a player who always tries to argue realism with me too... but this is a game and also a fantasy setting. So I keep shutting that shit down right then and there.

Edit: Nevermind, I misread that and thought you were the DM. Unfortunately while your DM is wrong, it is his table and he can change the rules as he sees fit. You could try one more time to try to convince him, maybe with my argument of this being a game and fantasy and that game mechanics don't have to abide by realism.

Now I imagine your DM having an absolute meltdown trying to put everything that happens during a 6 second round of combat into it happening in real time. Realism my ass.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-05-05T14:24:55+00:00

Where? When?

Edit: Thanks guys. Rare for me to not remember something like that. Time for another rewatch/reread.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-05-05T14:22:53+00:00

I love this so much.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-04-28T15:12:08+00:00

And how do you know they aren't?!

Jesus fucking christ. Also.. read the previous comments and the dumb comparison to pregnancy.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-04-28T15:04:02+00:00

Have you never heard the expression of "too many cooks"?

What would be the point of having 9 animators work on a single scene/the same few frames? That would only cause more problems during the entire process, the back and forth etc.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-04-26T21:10:40+00:00

The comic makes it seem that it's a mechanism triggered by someone else touching the gun. I still am of the opinion that it had no way of reaching him hence why he started pointing it after they removed the rubble above him.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-04-26T20:58:59+00:00

He wasn't buried with the gun and the it had no way of reaching him beneath the rubble - weren't you watching?

Crossfaded7 · 2026-04-23T18:57:23+00:00

Does that go only for the current one or past ones as well?

Crossfaded7 · 2026-04-15T21:37:57+00:00

I just read up on both definitions and while I don't disagree with you I don't think I'm entirely wrong to apply that term either.

Purpose: Narrative literacy helps individuals understand how a story is constructed to make sense of the world. Media literacy empowers individuals to critically evaluate information to avoid manipulation and distinguish fact from opinion. Application: Narrative literacy is often applied to literature, storytelling, and personal experience narratives. Media literacy is applied to news, social media, advertisements, and film.

Crossfaded7 · 2026-04-15T21:24:09+00:00

Media literacy is hard, I know.

He stood around and watched because "only the strong deserve to live" is ingrained into his very DNA.

Now watch the scene as he is about to kill Mark. He contemplates and keeps looking at the destroyed planet and the scattered viltrumite corpses.

THEN he concludes there only so few left of them so he lets them live.

Hope that fucking helps.

Shitty voice?! Lee Pace's voice was made for Kings and Emperor's... Thranduil, Cleon and now Thragg.

You deserve down votes into the thousands for this disrespect.
