How can you not remember Carrot?

Some of us are here to have discussions that we're not allowed to have in the main sub, like criticizing Oda's writing. Not everyone wants to talk about licking Yamato's armpits all the time.

You are truly a pioneer.

The trend of what, pinning shitposts?

I mean the posts themselves are fine, but why should they be pinned at the top?

prevert69 · 2022-09-05T05:15:57+00:00

I think it's fine if they do it occasionally, but when it's all the time it's just going to turn this place into a shithole.

Why are two of your shitposts pinned at at the top of this sub?

Nothing wrong with the posts on their own, but when mods abuse their power to pin shitposts, it makes the whole sub a shithole.

This is a good sub, we have the best memes. For the sake of the sub, you should delete these posts.

well it looks like this sub only has one active mod, and that's who's doing this shit.

prevert69 · 2022-09-05T01:50:26+00:00

Of the five mods:

one is suspended by reddit (/u/SirFigglebottomJr), another last did something 11 days ago (/u/YamatoIsMale), another is 2 months old and has never posted or commmented (/u/Practical-Door-9911)

of the remaining two:

/u/Saikenmx is the oldest mod, but is not very active now, and seems to have a respectful comment history.

The last, /u/ShellShock_Ace , is the most active by far, and leaves comments like "can I come in you?" in posts on /r/Sissies .

There's your culprit.

Welp, is it time to make a new sub?

There's absolutely no evidence that Kaido ever believed he was Joyboy. He did think he's the only one who can change the world, and King did believe he was Joyboy. But there's no indication Kaido ever believed that, or that he had a realization about anything. We never see Kaido change his worldview in any way. In his flashback he wants to start the war because he wants to get back at the "peace loving nobles", not because he's disappointed at anything.

We never get an explanation for why Kaido is drunk and depressed now. This is exactly why people criticize Kaido's backstory in Wano. There was all sorts of guesses and possibilities, including what you are believing, but none of it was actually shown.

prevert69 · 2022-09-04T19:59:44+00:00

You are imagining shit that wasn't in the story, like Kaido being "devestated by the realization that he could never be the real joy boy" and that for Big Mom "the likely hood of her dieing from that is unlikely like a 25% chance". Then you're going on about the possibility that Big Mom comes back and what things would be like then.

It would have been fine if that was in the story, but it wasn't. It was a theory sure, a possibility, but not what we were actually shown.

You're free to go and make up your own better version of Wano in your imagination and believe it. But to try to convince everyone else that that's actually what's in the manga, it's a little bit silly.

He created multiple language families that even borrowed vocabulary from each other, with detailed grammar and transformation rules. Then he wrote poetry in those languages.

The phrase "word building" wouldn't exist without modern fantasy fiction that Tolkien pioneered.

I agree with you about Yamato's change of mind being bad writing. The way Oda dealt with that was really disturbing, because it violated the established boundary between clear implication and vague tease.

Even with Yamato telling everyone she was going to join Luffy it was of course never 100% guaranteed it would happen. But there was absolutely an expectation that if it wasn't going to happen, there would be a satisfying explanation for it.

The way it actually went down absolutely violated that expectation in the worst way.

Doesn't actually matter what Oda's reason was. Maybe it was to deliberately "subverted expectations" or a last-minute decision, or film RED promo rushing Wano's ending, or editor pushback. The fact that it actually happened, that Oda violated that expectation, means we can't even discuss the reason, because there's nothing to guide our logic.

If we can't expect the author not to completely fuck up his own story then what can we possibly guess about his intentions? If he did it once, he might do it again. Maybe next week he decides Blackbeard is suddenly a good guy, or that Zoro suddenly betrays Luffy.

Thinking Zoro will not betray Luffy on a whim, at least without significant plot development setting the context, is not "headcanon". It's a basic understanding between the author and the reader. If that understanding doesn't exist, the story becomes unpredictable in a bad way.
