I actually never got the impression that One Piece is about morals or being a good person. It's always felt like it's about being the best version of yourself and sticking to what you truly believe. Hence the difference ways of being a pirate, just like there's different kinds of justice. Everyone is free to persue the path that feels true to them. Even if it's difficult. Which is why for example, Garp was willing to let Ace die. Luffy doesn't fight these other pirates because they are objectively bad. He fights them because they happen to be standing in the way of his dream or the dreams of his friends. He's liked captain Kidd well enough and that dude was the typical "bad" pirate. Luffy even rejects the idea of being called a Hero. Yes they give him a funny reason, that being he doesn't want to share meat, but I think it's because he doesn't do what he does because it's "good". He does it because it's what he wants to do. Whether it's good or bad will depend on others to decide. He just happens to act in a way that feels "just and moral" to us the audience.
Very true, I like how Luffy is shown to be the embodiment of personal freedom in that regard. Though, it's also compounded by WHY Luffy values his friends, usually being swayed by them facing hardship without any good reason. Luffy heavily respects a strong resolve, and even more a strong moral baseline. He may want to be free first and foremost, but he does have a strong respect for good morals, and a strong disrespect for bad ones.
The same societal issues born from modernist existentialism have bled into every institution. Academia, Churches, Government, etc. It says, "Do what is accepted and legal. Only be restricted from wronging others". A confusing and poisoned philosophical suicide that tries to remove the individual from the whole and the whole from the individual. A sick group produces a sick individual. A healthy group produces a healthy individual. My counteractive and unmoving answer is, "Do what is RIGHT despite its presumed admissibility and legality. Refusing to do harm to others must necessarily be paired with refusing to do harm to yourself."
@@yoshi_drinks_tea Modernism and those who adhere to it (Modernists) believe in such a world view that follows "with the experience and values of modern industrial life".

This is so true, its one of the many reasons I like One Piece fr. One of my favorite characters, who I think is the other side of a natural viture, is Kuma. While Luffy is a great example of viture and freedom, Kuma is viture and willing sacrifice. Kuma, especially with his backstory reveal, is pretty much what Oda evisions as a someone who is naturally a viturous man of faith. Kuma lived his whole under oppression, but never once did that make him a bitter person. He stayed the good man he has always been, and he did so in spite of his chains. He held faith in the ideals of Nika in his heart and passed those on to people around him to where even Bonney exhibits them without even realizing. He naturally and without hesitation loved Bonney, and didnt hold her mothers death against her. He sacrificed his life for her without a second thought if it meant she got to live. I also like how Kuma was essentially Luffy's shadow throughout his life. While Luffy shined brightly, Kuma was like his moon which reflected him. He protected Luffy in his most helpless times pre-time skip, and even before he died he gave his robot self the mission of protecting the Sunny till Luffy came back. Either way I think Oda did a great job in putting things like this into his story for people to think about.
Thanks for the comment! I think what you're saying is very true and Kuma is another side of what I was talking about. This video was made before the flashback really began so he wasn't on my mind (the video was originally completed around September but didn't upload it until now). I'm glad you enjoyed and I appreciate all of your insights!
Luffy is not a great example of freedom As luffy's journey is quite easy because he and his crew have insane plot armour And thus he never faced any consequences for his actions His dad and sabo are a better representation of freedom
@@aniverse_574 Luffy literally lost his brother Ace, directly because of his actions. At the same time, Ace was also the one responsible for his death which why he didn't blame luffy when he died. A major point of the story is that fortune favors the bold, but not the foolish. Luffy was very bold, but also foolish pre-timeskip. That foolishness almost lost him his crew, and did cost him his brother. He learned from that, grew stronger, and became bold and prepared enough to face any challenge. Thats what makes Luffy an inspiring protagonist. Even though he does have hella plot armor, it only saves him; not the people around him. That's why Luffy works so hard to protect his friends. He learned that if he is not strong enough, its not a guarantee that they will live to see another day.
@@sonyyung5510 Ace was never caught by government because of luffy ? What are you saying Ace was caught when he was defeated by black beard Luffy's actions could have cost them in sabody island , where they were saved by kuma , in wano they are saved by God gift gear 5 In every war , his whole crew comes alive Even the weaker ones like Ussop or Nami Not only that But the whole good /oppressed side make it out alive And there is a party at the end But in reality ,war is bad for both sides and thus its always hard to figure out how to attain freedom for countries under dictatorship The theme of freedom is handled better by Berserk,jjk or aot where they showed how the hero's path will always have struggle and not absolute freedom But I am not saying that he ain't an inspiring main character He is an inspiring main character as there are many other things about his character that we can learn from . I am just saying that if you are calling luffy a representation of freedom than almost 98 % of main characters are symbol of freedom Even doremon As they freed many people Its not something unique
I think that's way too much of an oversimplification. A lot of people who justify themselves like that end up hurting people indirectly with their actions. It also really doesn't fit any kind of lesson to take away from One Piece because the good guys hurt people all the time, lol.
@@potato4dawin1 you don’t have to succeed EVERYTIME, that’s unrealistic, it’s words to live by because it’s so vague. The story has a narrative of good and bad pirates, who try to do less damage than they can get away with.
That's not good words to live by. Because you don't exist in a world devoid of others. Things you may want to do may not seem harmful can and usually will hurt someone down the line. For example, a mother and father have a daughter. The daughter wants to become a prostitute. That doesn't hurt anyone, right? Wrong. The parents hurt every day worrying about their daughters life and safety. She could contract stds and hurt herself. She could pass it on unknowingly and hurt someone else. "Do whatever you want, just don't hurt anyone." Is an idealistic fantasy. The better thing to do is to follow your dreams and be accountable to the consequences. That's the real meaning I get from one piece. All of the strawhat pirates took responsibility for their own dreams, accept, and deal with the consequences of those actions. Like when luffy busted into impel down and marineford to save Ace. He hurt plenty of people, but he never denies that. He acknowledges his accountability and acts accordingly. Perfect example is when he punched a celestial dragon. He knew he was going to bring an admiral to the island and put his crew in danger. But he did what he felt was right and took responsibility for it. The dude even apologized to his crew for his reckless behavior. So no. Don't "do whatever you want, just don't hurt people." "Do what you think is right, and take responsibility for it." Is better for both living in real life and analyzing one piece specifically.
Satanist say the exact same thing, that's a false Maxim that tries to be witty short and all-encompassing and in the process it encompasses with its definition things which are wrong. What if someones definition of wronging others is different than yours? Say for example the world nobles in one piece, they genuinely believe that they are doing nothing wrong when they kidnap innocent civilians for their nefarious purposes.
Freedom that One piece portrays is about, doing good not according to what your duty is but rather what good actually is and looking at situations objectivly (not looking at the past/ looking at charachters backstories/) literally freeing yourself of your karma and doing what is right according to dharma!Even if it is your karma to fight for your king, but if it is against dharma you should even if it wont amount to much go against your karma and fight for the dharma and maybe a luffy will come to help you! Personally the lesson I learned from One piece is that not to be like luffy, but rather be like Vivi, Tama, etc. and work towards ur duties with moral and eventually A Luffy/Joyboy/Nika will come to help you reach your goals! Loved the video, really thought provoking and it makes me think how many things One piece reflects/potrays from my religious literature!
I really love that One Piece's philosophy shows how characters can be ignorant but still have a balance with those you love. Luffy knows nothing of ethics in most scenarios, but he trusts his friends because of their good nature, and trusts their judgements on things he couldn't care less about learning. He didn't care about Fishman Island's story of slavery or racism, but he fought for them because Nami and Jimbe cared deeply for it. Nobody can know everything, but with respect and care for good moraled people, even Luffy could be a kind and caring person.
AMAZING VIDEO. I was literally just looking for a One Piece & it’s “Freedom” analysis video and I came across this. God’s will right here, definitely got a new subscriber !
You could also just read the manga.much quicker and FAR fewer drops in quality. Though there are episodes and moments that elevate the manga. Episode 1015 and Luffy punches a celestial dragon for example.
Growing up in school I was verbally abused by bullies and when I told them to stop they said they had “freedom of speech” Whenever they’d get in trouble with teachers or have some freedom taken away, they would talk back and bully and their friends would victim blame for getting in trouble and having their “freedom” taken away, and then again I didn’t tell on them as much as I should have and they got off the leash
Sorry to hear that, I'm glad they at least got punished. I hope you enjoy the video and what I have to say because I inadvertently speak against that sort of thing
Having freedom does not mean one is free from consequences. If your former bullies have continued their antics I wouldn't be surprised if they're either in jail or have difficulty getting a job. The former because harassment is a crime and the latter because no one likes verbally abusive jerks who just won't stop. Neither are a violation of ones freedom because harassment is a violation of ones right of disassociation, that being to disassociate with someone they don't like. And because as stated disassociation is a right. The rights of one person ends where another persons begin. No one has a right to someone else's association.
You said the straw hats don’t have morals around 10 minutes in. I think that’s completely false, evidence being sanji vs women, nami and kids. They definitely have morals

My interpretation of Freedom in One Piece is: Being free of oneself and the concerns of others, while chasing your dream, will eliminate desire in search of freedom.

Freedom is neither good nor bad, because there's the freedom of the slave who is free, and the freedom of satanists who want to do whatever they want. So in actuality you see that a freed slave will eventually become another demon, I wouldn't be surprised if we found out that the world nobles used to be a slaves. You will see for example that when Luffy arrived at gear 5th, becoming the embodiment of Freedom itself, it was after four other gears in which he tied himself down and avoided fighting the way he wanted, instead of doing the silly gimmicks that he wanted to to win a fight, he had to for the sake of others make himself a slave to others, but then by making himself a slave to that which is good he has become Freedom itself. I see that Oda is taking parts of the Christ figure archetype and he places them in different characters. You can see the longsuffering and cross bearing on Kuma, the liberator of slaves and light of the world in Luffy, the prefigured Messianic figure on joyboy who takes after nika. Truly to make a good story you need to take from the real world, so obviously Oda is a very good storyteller to be able to covertly use so difficult a trope like this in such a masterful way.
Still, how you broke it all down was pretty cool and even though I don't agree whatsoever with the solution I subscribe anyway to challenge myself and my beliefs (sort of) to be fair not really, but in some shape or form. Though I'll probably be coming back to listen to this analysis again to try to catch any wisdom I'll accept as valid, through my developing beliefs as an Anarchist (Anarcho communist leaning*) Jesus was a communist Additionally being Anarchist doesn't refer to chaos its about the active fight against hierarchical power structures in order to create a space where, "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need." Though naturally I can agree with Oda's idea that we should/could not kill the idea of competition, it is a apart of us but it should be voluntary (probably just for fun) and you should be subject to its harshness unless you choose to be apart of it. It is their right to chose what they want to do, without subjugating the freedom of others. I follow Oda, follow Luffy towards their vision of what the world maybe could/should be like Fundamentally your right in your conclusion, but because of those over arching fundamentals of the story Your wrong in your solution. Everyone's trying to control to the world, but by putting it in an unnatural state That will only force something to break, Authoritarians try to mold us into something we are not, but our will is eternal due to the fact that it is born inside of everything that lives, everything that lives desires to be free, to express their Will as they please. Buddha's will was to leave and be unchained, others chose to stay believing that, "because this may be all that their is" THEY MUST FIGHT FOR IT "if (we) I don't save us then who the fuck will?" Everyone should be free to choose because why should the world be unfair? We already didn't choose to be born into this mess. It should be their right to choose. but we must still accept that we cant control it all, we were made this way, and unless we choose a way not to we will die, rough for our livestock who probably wouldn't get to have the chance to choose. I guess thats why its "Haki above all" that is the final word, more reason to build a more fair world no wonder Buddha wanted to leave, that really fucks with a person good thing we've developed a way to grow meat in a lab (like bacteria in a petri dish, same concept)
Bruh No right winger would support oppressing of fishman 😂 They may be against mixing of the races but not straight out oppressing them Humans vs fishmen is just a basic concept of both sides having good and bad people This theme is very common You can see this in Naruto , in pain arc In black clover , between humans , elves & devils In aot , between eldians and non - eldians In the dragon prince, between humans and elves And many more
"One Piece is an anime that depicts the hidden side of the world. The Gorosei and Imu-sama are like the Rothschilds and Rockefellers of today. The fact that the Rothschilds are Jewish might suggest that the World Government in the past faced persecution. They maintain a slave system and claim to uphold justice without actually being just. It's said that Freemasonry, originally a group of stonemasons, is also a model for the series. This connects to Wano Country and the Poneglyphs. Oda-sensei draws inspiration from world history, names, and various works like Disney and Anpanman. One Piece is packed with Disney elements. Oda-sensei enjoys wordplay, so names, bounties, and everything in the series have a hidden meaning. Learning Japanese will make you realize just how amazing One Piece truly is."
I actually never got the impression that One Piece is about morals or being a good person.
It's always felt like it's about being the best version of yourself and sticking to what you truly believe.

This guy is talking like we can define what's wrong and what's right in literal sense.
Still, how you broke it all down was pretty cool and even though I don't agree whatsoever with the solution
I subscribe anyway to challenge myself and my beliefs (sort of) to be fair not really, but in some shape or form.
Though I'll probably be coming back to listen to this analysis again to try to catch any wisdom I'll accept as valid,
through my developing beliefs as an Anarchist (Anarcho communist leaning*) Jesus was a communist
Additionally being Anarchist doesn't refer to chaos its about the active fight against hierarchical power structures in order to create a space where, "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need."
Though naturally I can agree with Oda's idea that we should/could not kill the idea of competition, it is a apart of us
but it should be voluntary (probably just for fun) and you should be subject to its harshness
unless you choose to be apart of it. It is their right to chose what they want to do, without subjugating the freedom of others.
I follow Oda, follow Luffy towards their vision of what the world maybe could/should be like
Fundamentally your right in your conclusion, but because of those over arching fundamentals of the story
Your wrong in your solution. Everyone's trying to control to the world, but by putting it in an unnatural state
That will only force something to break, Authoritarians try to mold us into something we are not,
but our will is eternal due to the fact that it is born inside of everything that lives,
everything that lives desires to be free, to express their Will as they please.
Buddha's will was to leave and be unchained, others chose to stay believing that,
"because this may be all that their is" THEY MUST FIGHT FOR IT
"if (we) I don't save us then who the fuck will?"
Everyone should be free to choose because why should the world be unfair?
We already didn't choose to be born into this mess. It should be their right to choose.
but we must still accept that we cant control it all, we were made this way, and unless we choose a way not to
we will die, rough for our livestock who probably wouldn't get to have the chance to choose.
I guess thats why its "Haki above all" that is the final word, more reason to build a more fair world
no wonder Buddha wanted to leave, that really fucks with a person
good thing we've developed a way to grow meat in a lab (like bacteria in a petri dish, same concept)
I really appreciate your honest perspective and willing to see out my view :)
The promise of prosperity and evolution is not all and is definitely not happiness. Do not FORGET!
i don't know man, Zorro can't still beat his minority allegations.

Nope
So your book is titled poorly, because all the hits bring up is a peer review about Chrisitanity in sports. Good luck with that I guess.
(Imagine thinking you're going to sell me a product on a video about.... pirates?)

No right winger would support oppressing of fishman 😂
They may be against mixing of the races but not straight out oppressing them
Humans vs fishmen is just a basic concept of both sides having good and bad people
This theme is very common
You can see this
in
Naruto , in pain arc
In black clover , between humans , elves & devils
In aot , between eldians and non - eldians
In the dragon prince, between humans and elves
And many more
I really dislike the bible thumping in this video
"One Piece is an anime that depicts the hidden side of the world. The Gorosei and Imu-sama are like the Rothschilds and Rockefellers of today. The fact that the Rothschilds are Jewish might suggest that the World Government in the past faced persecution. They maintain a slave system and claim to uphold justice without actually being just. It's said that Freemasonry, originally a group of stonemasons, is also a model for the series. This connects to Wano Country and the Poneglyphs. Oda-sensei draws inspiration from world history, names, and various works like Disney and Anpanman. One Piece is packed with Disney elements. Oda-sensei enjoys wordplay, so names, bounties, and everything in the series have a hidden meaning. Learning Japanese will make you realize just how amazing One Piece truly is."
