a LOT of people are going to try to tell you that the luffy v zoro fight was the fault of an editor or some higher up who wanted to see it happen and oda was simply appeasing his bosses. this is COMPLETELY UNTRUE. i've been a one piece fan for over a decade now, and this claim keeps getting repeated despite the fact that there is NO EVIDENCE FOR IT. oda has never said that this is what happened in any interview or in any of the question-corners he's done, it is purely fan speculation for which i blame a certain youtuber. TotallyNotMark did a one piece review series back in 2020 which garnered a millions of views and during his whiskey peak section he openly speculated that Jump editorial was responsible for the luffy/zoro fight and many of his viewers took it as gospel and spread it throughout the internet. in my opinion he's also responsible for the wave of negative attention that fight gets. in the manga it's a basically just a gag that lasts one chapter. i don't remember anyone caring at all before TNM dropped his video talking about it as though it were a violation of the Geneva convention. i think there are two things going on here: one, TNM was new to the series and hadn't yet realized that sometimes oda just wants to joke around with his characters and two, people online are in a fandom. not for one piece but for it's author. people like to shift blame away from oda onto jump editorial anytime there's something in the series they don't like. TNM convinced them that this was a serious fight and they shouldn't like it, so they latched onto his speculation and shifted blame onto the editorial staff of the magazine.

2025-06-09 09:15:46 +0000 UTCi should explain the behind the scenes events that happened in this arc whisky peak during the middle of the arc, after zoro kicked the shit out of everyone, oda had the idea of a kingdom in danger, and the straw hats meeting a royal family member so he needed to build up to that, so he thought miss Wednesday looked princessy enough and decided to use her, changing her from one time villian to a major character in disguise half way through the arc, which you can see the change in her facial appearance when it was revealed who she was and when her hair went down another thing was, at the same time, the higher ups of Shonen wanted oda to do a luffy vs zoro fight, cause i think it was a popular discussion back then so oda wanted to get it over with and dropped it during this fight. so if your wondering how crazy of a turn this arc took, these are the reasons why. all of this happened right after zoro kicked 100 bounty hunter asses

2025-06-05 07:21:50 +0000 UTCWhat's a bit crazy about Morgan, is that it's hard to tell how much of his awful personality is a result of Captain Kuro getting him hypnotized and the influence of that, or his actual own hubris.
