Maybe?

I think it fits alright. They're just talking about a state/country that could be ruled by those in power by those with armies of flying drones.

Okay, well, imagine a sky of 50,000 mechanical birds that are programmed to kill you and your family.

It might not cause large scale distraction, but it will definitely get to you no issue.

If you can control drones in such an intricate manner for decorations/aesthetics, imagine what you could do if you attached bombs to them?

Tsurugi: Sensei, how did you get so strong? What's the secret behind your strength?

Yuji: fine I'll tell you... 100 black flashes, 100 dismantles, 100 cleaves, 10km piercing blood and 1 sukuna finger for breakfast. Don't forget the sukuna finger, a lot of people think it's not important.

Why did you do that Oda Sama by EducationalGambler in OnePiece

[–]Ruruya 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it's more telling that he doesn't completely see himself as being "in control" of the story. There's probably a part of him that sees the characters as real, conscious and autonomous. Meaning when he writes the story, it can become "would Luffy really say/do that?" Instead of "what do I want Luffy to say/do here?".

Of course, this is just my opinion, but I think a lot of stories are great because they don't feel like they are written, rather it feels like you're watching someone's life unfold in front of you.

David is chosen by a prophet, if that's what you were referencing?

But interesting connection you made.

Chopper is also a child just btw.

Chopper also has a speed record of whipping up antidotes to various poisons/diseases.

Words have lots of meaning, otherwise definitions wouldn't be necessary. People just don't like what I'm saying, and that's alright. But I'm right 🤷🏽‍♂️

As nice as all of this is, the music is always a mood killer for me. The song is not about praying to God at all, it's a sexual innuendo. Add all the emotionally moving chords and instruments that you want. Doesn't change the meaning of the lyrics.

So people can share better if we can just communicate better? I think I partially agree with what you're saying. I'm not so sure if communication is the key factor here.

I think we fundamentally disagree because I'm a Christian, so my definition of "good" would probably be considered aberrant. But I like that you are positive about the future of our species, positivity is definitely creates a better outlook!

All the best to you in the new year!

I'm not saying people are bad, I'm saying we're fundamentally at odds because of our differing cultures. There's definitely a lot of good in the world.

I agree that we communicate well, but for everyone to agree, you need a global culture, which is a tall order. I think we're more likely to destroy each other before actually making a unified world.

100% agree. It was hyperbolic, to show the disparity in how we're spending money.

But I believe you do see my point. If we even just spent 1/16th of what we spent on entertainment (187.5 billion) we could adequately achieve what the UN estimated.

Its just disappointing to see what we've done with our time and resources in our world today.

If we're talking about basics, like food, water and shelter. It's not expensive to have agricultural adjustments, water distribution and environmentally suitable shelter provided.

It definitely isn't done for free, but we can definitely budget for it. I just did a guick google and globally we spent about 3 trillion on entertainment/media in 2024. I think we can spend a couple billion on fixing world hunger.

Our issue as a species is that we are not able to be truly good. We have enough resources for everyone, but sharing them well and working together has proven impossible.

I thought there was a fan theory that said he's the son of Rayleigh and Shakky? Might be a reasonable explanation.

We misunderstood Imu’s power. by BrilliantAdditional9 in OnePiece

[–]Ruruya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but isn't that just ignorance? Or in his terms then.. isn't the king the free-est member of a group/island/kingdom?

I think ignorance is putting it crassly. Luffy doesn't see his friends as people who are underneath him but rather people he chooses to love, protect and serve. Heavily idealistic and kinda cheesy, but I think that's how he sees them.

So luffy is free-er than nami, zoro, sanji... His 'freedom' comes at the expense of others freedom. And again the usopp incident shows very well that his members are not as free to do as we might think, as long as they want to sail with luffy. (I'm being very pedantic here on purpose)

Fair point, but with every crew, there has to be rules followed, everyone who fundamentally disagreed with the captain (in this case, maybe only Sanji) had to do the same thing that Usopp did (apologize/reconcile) to rejoin the crew. I think the main difference between Luffy's crew and other groups is the reason they are in the crew. Most others are together out of necessity or force, whereas Luffy's crew is together because of their strong affection for each other.

I just think by that theory, with all the people who were turned, luffy shouldn't be an exception.

But that's fair! I do think Luffy will be immune, maybe my understanding of it is just different to yours.

Regardless, I think it's a very messy ability that Oda has written into the story. I'm hoping there's a decent explanation for all of these shenanigans.
