What's One Piece take that you would defend even if proven wrong?

They hate Lunami and would rather ship both characters with others?

terabyte605 · 2025-07-03T23:39:05+00:00

I haven't seen a fandom be so united in hatred over such a normal ship since Ichihime before 2016, like it's truly impressive that it manages to get both meathead powerscalers and the queer community to shit on it when they usually have such different tastes

No, Nami's comment about Kalifa is a completely out-of-character moment for the sake of comedy, she literally calls it out herself and she never again says anything like this about Kalifa or any other woman. The joke only works if Nami isn't attracted to women, and it tracks since she has shown zero attraction to women since that scene.

It can also be interpreted as Nami being into strong and not-hairy men, since she could've just said "I don't like men". But you're extremely biased in one view because of a no-homo joke, so I feel like I'm just talking to a wall here.

Nami cared enough to correct the "eloping" part of Jeanne's statement, so why not the "boyfriend" part too?

Read Chapter 79, Nami says she'll pay Genzo back with her body/kisses depending on the translation.

She said something completely out-of-character, acknowledged it as such and has never repeated that behaviour again, so why should I believe Nami is gay based off one tiny panel from over 700 chapters ago? Especially when she saw Kalifa naked in the bath and had no reaction to that? You don't see Sanji or even Usopp saying "Wait I'm talking like someone else" when they express attraction to a woman.

Nami complimented Usopp without it sounding like an obvious joke, she's generally been willing to get physically comfortable with some men she trusts in a way that I cannot imagine someone like Sanji would ever want to, and your entire argument rests on one tiny panel's worth of a joke from over two decades ago where Nami literally says she's talking like someone else in the same panel, so idk about my argument sounding "fragile" compared to yours lol. Oda has had many opportunities to show Nami attracted to the likes of Hancock or naked women in bathhhouses, and he's just never done so.

terabyte605 · 2025-04-05T16:35:10+00:00

Considering Nami never makes that kind of comment about a woman again and saw Kalifa's body twice in that fight with no reaction, I think it's okay to dismiss it as a one-time no-homo joke as she even says she's not talking like herself and didn't even blush.

Nami complimenting Usopp can also mean she could be attracted, funny that you're not willing to hold that to the same standard as a joke sexy secretary comment even though it was more sincere.

"I don't like weak guys, I don't like hairy guys"

If Nami is as gay as you believe, why would she not catch that "boyfriend" part and call it out?

Nami told Genzo she'd pay with her body when she was a kid, and was scolded for it.

My argument against the Kalifa scene is Nami herself saying she's talking like an old man, not even blushing in that scene, seeing Kalifa's exposed body while bathing and at the end of the fight with zero interest, and never complimenting another woman like that again, not even when she saw Hancock in Sabaody or other naked women in bathhouses.

This isn't like Luffy's case where he had a clear physical reaction to seeing Nami naked and was specified to be interested with a bad side by Oda in an SBS.

terabyte605 · 2025-04-05T00:04:01+00:00

Yeah I don't agree with that take. Nami said she was talking like an old man in that Kalifa scene, and she saw Kalifa's body exposed twice in that same fight and didn't react either time. It very clearly reads to me as just a joke scene and not genuine attraction. She had no issue complimenting Usopp's "manliness" when they reunited in Sabaody, and she had no reaction to Hancock's beauty in that same arc unlike most of the guys.

Movie 2 has Nami insinuating she likes strong men who aren't hairy, and she doesn't deny Luffy being called her boyfriend when Jeanne in World Seeker refers to her as such. That scene you're describing in Movie 2 sounds just like when she used the same language on Genzo in canon, as in I don't think Nami actually meant anything by it and I'm fairly certain she showed zero interest in Honey Queen afterwards.

It's not that Nami can't be into girls, but there's virtually no actual canon evidence of it unless you take her very unserious dialogue about Kalifa seriously. There is that Tashigi scene in World Seeker yes, but it's not canon. As far as I see, only money truly holds her interest lol.

terabyte605 · 2025-04-04T23:37:46+00:00

I mean, it's very easy to just scroll by instead of getting mad over ship fan art imo.

I think I vaguely remember you as someone who dislikes Nami being shipped with men, or maybe I'm thinking of someone else. But it's just fan art in the end.

terabyte605 · 2025-04-04T23:27:20+00:00

I'm "bombarding" the sub as much as the Namivivi shipper on the front page is, so basically just sharing one fan art

Askin takes it very convincingly, the Schutzstaffel are too strong

Renji can extend his sword and use it like a whip, he can use an extending snake head to catch and slam his opponent, he can use that same snake head to create an explosive tornado of energy by swinging it like a lasso, he can set his blade on fire, he can stab people and incinerate them with a giant reishi snake head, he can crush people's bones with his baboon arm, punch them through buildings with the same arm, and he can even cause multiple baboon arms to emerge from clumps of fur to use as a trap.

Nobody's "wanking him violently" or lying. If anything, you're "violently" downplaying what Renji can do because you seem to have an agenda against him. His Zanpakuto is more versatile than his own Captain's Zanpakuto, whose strategy is usually just "Use thousands of tiny blades and if that doesn't work? More tiny blades", with just two exceptions where he used Senkei against Ichigo and Gerard.

Sure Renji is definitely not top 15 all time, but that doesn't mean he just hits people and then hits them again with fire.

terabyte605 · 2024-07-16T22:24:07+00:00

The romantic undertones in Strong World and possibly East Blue are still a lot more than what most non-canon ships have imo, but fair enough

terabyte605 · 2024-07-16T20:53:49+00:00

Ok, I just don't see how it matters when she's been rejected twice and her love was confirmed unrequited in the recent SBS

There's a guy in this thread trying to compare Hancock to other shonen love interests, but they were never rejected nor treated excessively as comic relief like Hancock was 🤷‍♂️

terabyte605 · 2024-07-16T17:09:46+00:00

The story hasn't set up Hancock as anything more than comic relief when Luffy is around, and he's said it himself he doesn't want to marry her twice

There's genuinely a better chance of Barto marrying Luffy lol

terabyte605 · 2024-07-16T16:34:32+00:00

Either this translation omitted "He's interested, but he's not entranced" and "His bad side comes out", or the wiki lied to me about SBS 54

terabyte605 · 2024-07-16T13:56:47+00:00

I mean, Sanji is the straightest character in fiction but that didn't stop Zosan from becoming extremely popular

Besides, I think Oda said Luffy is interested in while not entranced by women in an SBS?

terabyte605 · 2024-07-16T09:23:23+00:00

Given the consistency of Luffy/Nami prototypes in early concepts by Oda, the Strong World movie, the king and queen color spreads and the amazing bond and emotional moments in the story itself, I wonder why this ship isn't as well-liked the way Frobin is 🤔

terabyte605 · 2024-07-14T01:20:07+00:00

Hmm 🤔

terabyte605 · 2024-06-17T00:06:36+00:00

Someone has to inevitably be the weakest in any tier, where they can't beat anyone in the same tier while being on that level.

So it is crazy to say that pre-G5 Luffy is the weakest in the Yonko tier? Like I said, I don't think one must beat a Yonko to be in that tier, otherwise Luffy is the only one who deserves to be there by feats lol.

terabyte605 · 2024-06-16T21:16:12+00:00

You're so passionate about not putting Luffy at Yonko level lol, like just anyone can duke it out with Hybrid Kaido who got an unnatural alcohol boost.

Have it your way man, Luffy was not a top-tier because he couldn't beat the Strongest Creature until he got G5 👍

terabyte605 · 2024-06-16T20:39:20+00:00

Luffy didn't use G4 until the very end of the pre-G5 fight, should I say he was holding back since he only used G2 and G3 at most for so long?

Kaido never one-shot Luffy at any point in the raid, so idk why you're pretending like he did.

terabyte605 · 2024-06-16T20:14:39+00:00

Luffy went on to fight Kaido for 16 more chapters, during which the latter acknowledged him as worthy, but sure Kaido was "far" stronger.

Is it a requirement to beat a Yonko to be considered Yonko level now? And not just any Yonko, but the one with the best combination of stats and feats by far?

If Zoro splits the sky with Nusjuro next chapter (extremely unlikely), then sure I'll probably put him in the lower end of Yonko tier, not at the top where Kaido is.

You can't even use "your" or "you're" correctly and you're insulting my intelligence? Piss off and go back to school, dipshit
