    Beautiful video👍 Your insight into this story is a quality I rarely see. One Piece is a story with more depth and complexity than some are willing to admit.
    Luffy not only embodies Freedom and Liberation, but also Childlike Wonder and Imagination. He does not judge people on their appearance or background but on their actions. For actions speak louder than words.

    Water 7 also shows they really really wouldn't have gotten as far as they did without the Ninja-Pirate-Samurai-Mink alliance. It shows how much they really would not have been ready for the New World with the mentality they already had then.
    If they had trouble accepting Franky, they'd have trouble accepting many of the Minks at hindsight. Look at Carrot's first introduction, and how open they became to one's who weren't apart of the original cause.
    They defiently grew more trusting, and I feel like that initially all starred with Law.

    I'm surprised no one else has complimented you on the perfectly worded ending. Luffy vs "The King of the World", something of which clearly implied Imu or at least his role, but since this video was released we have learned is EXACTLY what Blackbeard wants to be for himself. We can often forget how subtly in our faces Oda can be with his interconnected nature of everything. While Imu is at least a top 2 endgame villain, it seems like their role will eventually (at least temporarily) be usurped by Blackbeard.
    He'd probably usurp all the power that Imu has at the moment (including the WG & Marines), and rein down an even more hellish nightmare than even Imu could've ever concocted. With that, the message here remains exactly the same, but it's expanded on even further to fully accommodate the man who will undeniably be seen as the "ultimate" One Piece villain when all is said and done.

    Whitebeard, Garp, Rocks. Luffy is now on the same power level as these legends.
    Whitebeard may still kick his ass and defeat Luffy. But it would still be a mid-diff fight as a MINIMUM. High-dif fight at worst.
    Last War Luffy was essentially just a background character. Now he stands in the same shoes as Whitebeard. I know this happens all the time in Shounen, but this time feels more special simply because of the time taken to do so in real life. It took 12 years after Whitebeards Arc for Luffy to reach the same heights. Meanwhile, other characters each the same power level within 1-2 years. Look how quickly Goku unlocked SS1 in DBZ Kai from Ep1 of DBZ Kai. Look at how quickly Ichigo reached Captain level in Bleach. Within a few months of real life time , most shounen protags get to "Final boss" levels of power. But One Piece took 12 years to do the same basic thing.
    If you want to be critical, maybe that means OP is less "efficient" compared to other series? Longer time to reach the same point. But you could instead take the view, that taking your time makes it seem more worthwhile. And you get more story before the rule breaking power ups.

    • @daddy_1453
      @daddy_1453 Рік тому

      P.S. Luffy also likely on same level as: Kizaru, Shanks, Dragon, 5 Elder Planets, Akainu, Shiki, Big Mom,Greenbull etc
      I'm not saying Luffy is stronger than these guys. I'm saying he's in their league of power. He has a legitimate chance of beating them, and it would take them a LOT of effort and sweat to defeat Luffy.
      No one shots here.

So I guess I'm just asking to mot stop doing Naruto all together assuming your not planning on doing more but no matter even if you never do again I'll always be a fan thanks for the videos

    • @HotBoySpicy
      @HotBoySpicy  Рік тому +6

      You're conflating my stance. His selfishness is a direct part of his journey as a liberator. I've talked about luffy being anything but selfless in previous videos. You must be new. What I'm saying is that his disposition of hating the sight of chained bodies actively affects his actions. You see this in ANY scene with luffy. Even before post-tumeskip, when luffy saw a slave in saboady about to be killed in front of his eyes, he tried to intervene despite not knowing them. You have to look at the bigger picture.

Luffy's dream will happen and Imu will fall alongside the rule of the Celestial Dragons, but while whathever it is that he wants is going to free the world I think it's because of him emboding freedom from his core instead of being his aspiration...at least I see it this way, Luffy is simple-minded but also quite complex when you think about it, Oda has written one hell of a main character.

It's only that more recently in the story has he taken a more active role because it's more than just the immediate people around him that matter to him. This combined with the fact that, I'll say again, Luffy hates to see it if it's before his eyes in general, which has been demonstrated to us numerous times throughout the series.

      That has changed, though. As I lay out in my video, Luffy has progressed post-timeskip to be more aware and more concerned about the broader problems. Especially because his backstory is directly tied to the state of the world. How can you read/watch wano and see luffy literally say he wants to make it a country where people can eat as much as they want and not get the fact that he's doing this for more than just his closest friends. He didn't ever bother to hear out stories even about his closest friends before, but he does for Oden. Explain that, Mr. Emperor. He was concerned about the state of the country enough to hear it out. Because he knows that's a requirement to help a whole civilization.
