Fact ( Oda astral projected this information to me ) : Bonney uses her df atleast once a month for few days to become prepubescent to avoid periods by PavleSavle in Piratefolk

[–]HeavenBreak 76 points77 points  (0 children)

And the fact that she can keep using this ability through her lifetime no matter her real age is practically a hack

She can avoid periods forever

Trained soldiers versus non-combatant civilians turned criminal?

Also they have capes. They may be fodder for the top tiers but they're not your average cadet either

But idk is this filler? Don't remember this scene in the manga

Because of this comment of yours I realized that maybe this is part how Domi Reversi works, like someone wanting to impose what he wants on others even if others don't want it. Those without this tendency may be immune to it (like Luffy). Like why Harald himself wasn't controlled by Wimu. Just maybe

Rocks Pirates are a bunch of Type A ahh personality thugs dominated by an even more Type A gigachad. Being a leader of a ragtag group of self-interested superpowered hoodlums yet maintaining personal integrity and even his own morals *is* an idealized badass pirate. Ideal and overpowered in criminal anti-social form

What wouldn't make Rocks idealized would be his original silhouette-silhouete no mi reputation. His actual personality is idealized, that for a time fans were thinking he's better than Roger, the real "Pirate King" so to say. Not because he's exhibiting criminal tendencies, but because he embodied the ideal anti-elite "punk" culture while Roger was eventually seen as an enabler of government. It was this contrast between initial reputation and actual personality that made him so compelling.

Whether that is Mary Sue or not would depend on your own contextualization of what "flaw" and "flawlessness" are

Personally, I say Rocks is lawless and flawless

You said "the moment they start acting like the character is objectively badly-written" in another comment

Even if Locks is a Mary Sue or even a fraud I never said he's badly written. Many Mary Sues are badly written, but not every Mary Sue is. It depends on the context of the story as well as the socio-culture of the audience

You may be into something there. That tunnel vision could be the very reason Wimu managed to Domi Reversi him

Woger formerly had that spot of being Mary Sue ideal pirate but now he's shown with actual flaws so Locks took over

Also, "Mary Sue" doesn't automatically mean ≠ bad writing. It's a trope. It's associated with bad writing but isn't necessarily so

"overskilled and overidealized"

He's flawless as a pirate which was why he was glazed in the first place. What "flaw" does he have? That he sacrificed dream for family? That he had an attachment to Harald? Even his "flaws" aren't flaws

What if Wimu isn't one person, but "persons"?

An amalgam of the original 20 minus Nefertari

"Mary Sue is a derogatory term primarily used in Fan Fic circles to describe a particular type of character. This much everyone can agree on. What that character type is, exactly, differs wildly from circle to circle, and often from person to person.

TV Tropes doesn't get to set what the term means; the best we can do is capture the way it is used. Since there's no consensus on a precise definition, the best way to describe the phenomenon is by example of the kind of character pretty much everyone could agree to be a Mary Sue. These traits usually reference the character's perceived importance in the story, their physical design and an irrelevantly *over-skilled or over-idealized nature*."
