    This is something I was hoping for ever since chapter 1101 when Bonney said she wanted a "Nika like future." It's such a beautiful moment for her. Every sacrifice Kuma and Ginny did was worth it. That being said, if someone disliked this chapter, that's totally fine. You are free to feel that way.

      This chapter was horrible and it makes no sense. You take the most broken ability in the series that the main character trained for over a decade to master and has to consistently fight the top tiers of his verse for the past 3 years and give it to a 10 year old that knows nothing and does nothing. Where is the logic? Given the description of her powers, she can literally give Gear 5 to everyone she wants to and there’s nothing stopping her. If she doesn’t then it’s a plot hole. I don’t understand how you can’t see a problem with this fairy tail bs writing. Having busted powers in one piece and anime in general is not new, but there’s always going to be ways to go about it. Randomly making a child who was irrelevant to the story a few months ago the strongest in the verse for no reason and giving her one of the most iconic anime transformations of the century is not one of those ways. It’s distasteful and an eyesore.

Where TF did you think it was going to go. Saturn even hints that Bonney's power is linked to her imagination my God and she's not even the strongest in the verse. Man, you're stupid. You act like her achieving this power automatically makes her some God. Gtfoh and actually read the story.

  • @thestudentofknowledge
    @thestudentofknowledge 6 місяців тому +29

    As a person who hates on this chapter, here's my 2 cents.
    First, if you like this chapter good for you, you are allowed to like that chapter.
    As for me, I never liked Nika as a concept. It feels like all the tension in the fights go down the drain.
    Slapstick looney tunes comedy is not my thing.
    It doesn't matter if it makes sense, I'm entitled to dislike what i dislike.
    Edit: Since some people seem to misunderstand me, I'll continue.
    I like One Punch Man, I like Dragon Ball Z and I like early One Piece. Nowhere did I say I dislike goofiness, I said "Slapstick looney tunes comedy is not my thing."
    When it comes to the goofiness of One Piece I enjoyed but it's like adding salt to food. There's such a thing as too much.
    DBZ had always been a martial arts gag manga from the beginning. As the show became more serious there were less gags (They were still there but like I said *less*) and the series did this slowly.
    With Luffy's G5, it's a big jump from the seriousness of all the prior arcs to Tom and Jerry levels of goofiness.
    One Punch Man had always been goofy from the beginning which what I expect from it and it's why I can enjoy it.
    Toriyama's Goku had always been goofy but it's the fact that despite that he still developed as a character becoming much smarter to the point where he demonstrates high levels of EQ is amazing to see.
    At no point was One Piece Tom & Jerry levels of goofy. It was a mix of seriousness and goofiness. Perhaps if each gear made Luffy's personality slightly more Goofier it would've been easier to digest but it's actually the opposite.
    Every time Luffy uses a gear he is harming himself. He is stressed, because of the fact that he knows he needs to beat his opponent quickly or else he'll have to deal with the drawback and were stressed too cheering him on.
    G5 Luffy is just enjoying himself.
    TL;DR: I dislike the "Nika" concept in the latest chapter because it introduces slapstick comedy, which I feel undermines the tension in the fights. I want to clarify that my issue isn't with goofiness as I enjoy early One Piece, One Punch Man, and Dragon Ball Z, but with the excessive goofiness akin to "Tom and Jerry" levels introduced by Luffy's Gear 5. I appreciate a balance of seriousness and goofiness and find the sudden shift in tone with Gear 5 unpalatable.

      Did you hate his fight against Arlong? He was being goofy then. He used Arlong's own teeth to bite him. That's not tension or serious at all. And as the other pointed out, you can go read other series for high tension, edgy, fights. I take it you're not a fan of DBZ either since there is no tension or anything in their fights given they can just be wished back with dragonballs. No tension in OPM either since Saitama never even get injured.

    I really don't think G5 Bonney is going to be doing as much as people fear. Certainly not anywhere near as much as Luffy. She may be able to use some toon force sure, but the endurance and strength isn't going to come even close to Luffy. She also already started changing forms throughout the arc, she even asked for a Nika-ish future at the end of her flashback. Now that she knows for certain that Nika exists she can really fully transform. I think people are worrying a bit too much.
    The chapter was good. JoyBonney was super cute too.

      @@TWYOP The problem with that is that there’s no point of contention. There’s no need for discussion about if it’s broken or how broken it is because we’ve seen the destructive capabilities of gear 5 first hand. It’s like you don’t remember how mad some people were when Luffy’s true powers were first revealed because it so far tips the scale of the entire verse power scaling wise. People thought that giving the MAIN CHARACTER -who actually had 24 years of writing put into him getting what he got- reality warping powers was a bold move 3 years ago, The you give that same thing to a 10 year old that’s done diddly squat that was literally irrelevant to the story a few months ago?

      I mean this is badly written, Nika was horribly retconned in to the story out of nowhere because Oda told so, and it even puts a lot of stuff in the past in question (not in a good way). Same with Bonney given she has seen Kuma during sabaody arc (Kuma was a warlord for a long time) but had no reaction to it, vice versa. Also Bonney's devil fruit at first was implied its her power to manipulate her age (this was first time we got to see her), then made in to she can manipulate ages of other objects (okay so she is kinda like Sugar to a degree), then retcon in to being able to mimic awakened form of a mythical zoan.. No just no this is horrible writing and actual makes one piece in to a sunday cartoon show. I am not sure if you know this, but other shows have been cancelled for something far less stupid things than this (fairy tale, naruto with zetsu, etc). I think one piece fans needs to be honest and call out when bullshit like this are published. Other manga/anime reviewers calls out the flaws with their show, but for some reason the one piece reviewers are so fricking biased and is literally a cult following.

    People make it sound like Bonney cheapened the power of Gear 5. Instead to me, this looks more like a further testament to how powerful Luffy's awakening is. He AWAKENED the spirit of Nika in someone else! Just like how his awakening makes the world around him rubbery, his awakened power stirs up the spirit of Joyboy in people around him. Bonney transformed because of him, not because Oda wrote this as an asspull.

    Before Egghead my impression of the Elders was that mostly they were just oldman ruling the world goverment and that probalby some of them could fight like Samurai Ghandi but nowhere near Yonko probably around admiral.
    Now with the reveal that they are all literal monsters I was pleasantly suprised, they are still bellow yonko and the fact that they are seemingly imortal means that they dont have to worry about defense so even the weaker strawhats can damage them, because the elders know they will just regenerate.

  • @dracoblizzard7944
    @dracoblizzard7944 6 місяців тому

    I didn't get any sense of confusion from the elders' power level, maybe it's just because I started reading recently and haven't been waiting, having them build up for years, but I always figured they would be either around this level or have no powers at all. To me, they are threatening because of their political power. The navy was always supposed to be the powerhouse of the government, the government itself doesn't need to be physically strong.
    Them being weaker than the emperors also makes way more sense from a logistical perspective. Think about it, if each elder was as strong as an emperor, or even if they were strong enough to take out an emperor's crew together, why wouldn't they just do that? There would be no point in scheming over years to maintain control of the world if you're stronger than everyone else and no one can challenge you. The government could simply kill anyone who gets in their way. The reason they can't do that is because the pirates and government are supposed to be in a balance of power, where neither can easily destroy the other. If the elders were that powerful, there would be no balance of power.
    Honestly, Oda does a far better job being consistent with character power levels than most other Shonen authors. He just gets a bad rap.

    2: luffy has also beaten awakened fruit users without awakening so boney copying awakened powers means nothing especially when considering that prior to this theres atleast 3 other fruits SUPERIOR TO THE NIKA (yami/quake/imus). another OP fruit isnt somethig new.

    It's kinda the same as what happened with Luffy.

Bonney had the "age" fruit, but then it got changed to "future" instead, which gives her the ability to imagine any future. So if you hate one of these power-ups, you gotta hate both.

      Luffy isn't meant to be the New Joyboy. Just like how Luffy isn't supposed to be the new Gol D. Roger.
      Joyboy is someone who used the Nika fruit and failed. Just like how Roger became the Pirate King, but failed overall. Both Joyboy and Roger was waiting for someone to succeed where they failed and that is Luffy.

      And that's why Oda make this. Being a human with Nika power isn't exclusive for Luffy only. Bonney can be Nika too shows us that being Nika isn't that special. Having Nika power isn't enough for Luffy to reach his dream. After all, the previous Nika power user a.k.a Joyboy even failed to do what he wanted. Luffy needs to go beyond Joyboy and Nika, who is only a legend. Luffy really need to be special.
      I've written this somewhere. This chapter actually shows that because being Nika is not only Luffy's thing, and this proves that Luffy will still be Monkey D. Luffy in the end. Not a reincarnated Joyboy or Nika's personalization. After all, technically, everyone can be Nika too.

Bonney doesnt have charisma like Luffy that surrounds him with allies, bonney isnt respected the same way Luffy was, luffy doesnt have a sense of vengeance for Ace against Akainu that Bonney has for kuma against Gorosei.

    That doesn't appy to how they can handle opponents objectively better than Sabo! They weren't even hyped up like the Samurai and actually have our expectations sunverted. The Straw Hats already survived their forces many of times, from Buster calls, Admiral attacks, A war against the Navy.
    Already proving even then at their weakest. They can survive the World Government.
    So for anyone to expect them to be capable of fully stopping an unexpected interference from the Straw Hats, with solely their own abilities. To complain about that, has utterly failed education.

    The story never emphasized the power that makes the Gorosei end game antagonists was their personal abilities and combat power, no! It's their intelligence aka information, and why they fear others obtaining it. for so many factors this is what makes them the most fearsome enemies.
    If y'all don't know that even in Reality, information is the strongest weapon and a major one that ends wars!

    Power scaling community always ignores the content of storytelling, as you can see I'm a diehard akainu fan, I know old ill wb with no advance haki beats my fav character in 1vs1, but power scaling community would never accept the fact that same WB is officially the strongest character in pretimeskip, old ill wb > kaido/big mom > shanks ... They would says anything they can to downplay both akainu and wb, because they wants to glorify their fav character like kaido/shanks, but the truth is in the story itself both yonko highly respect old ill WB for his strength and global influences ... Not even after wano ended we actually saw kaido/big mom/ shanks shows their individual power equal/greater than island splitting blow WB did against akainu, as WB single handedly defeats a top tier with no adv haki, only DF + basic haki was needed .... that's how overpowered WB is written

      1. Her devil fruit power allows her to access the alt timeline for a brief period.
      2. No, because Bonney power is special in a way since it comes from a freakish human experimentation by the Gorosei that almost cost her life. She should not survive if not for Vegapunk intervention, that's how fk up the experiment is.

    My person views on the chapter fall in 2 pillars:
    1) if this power is granted by bonneys devil fruit, I dislike it, as it feels like it dose not fit her thematically
    2) if this power is granted by luffys words of “ you can do it, you can be free too” I like it, since it makes sense since luffy has been shown to share “freedoms”
    In conclusion, next chapter will decide how i see this chapter

      @MFDavish You're right about what you typed being her story, but she can have more than one story. one's piece is all about passing on the will of others. Bonny's dad dreamed about Nika's Freedom, and now Bonny has claimed that freedom symbolically, by turning into Nika. I hope the rest of her story about her problem with her dad is resolved soon.

      @MFDavish I think either way, her becoming a Nika is cool, and luffy being able to give his powers to others is cool. I just thought that if i had to take bets on why she became Nika, it was because of her devil fruit that can turn her and others into whatever she believes is possible.

    This isn't about power scaling and to simplify it that way is wrong. Luffy isn't the strongest in one piece so why would Anyone be upset about it? Stronger characters than the strawhats appear and disappear all the time.
    The issue is in fact that it undermines the value of the gear 5th transformation. It's really that simple. Who cares about power levels in this context? Almost no one.
    Oda could have also simply made a different design to show her own theme of liberation instead. It doesn't matter if it was foreshadowed at all. Just because something isn't an a$$pull doesn't mean it's not bad. It's bad.

    Well, we can disagree on the kaido vs elders
    Yes luffy escaped,but they didn't really attack him that much, and luffy escaped, didn't win
    Because he was very much losing
    Luffy is without a doubt over saturn, and probably over Peter, but there's a clear gap between him and warcury, and it's obviously not even close
    And I'll be honest, warcury is definitely above kaido, kaido didn't walk out with zero damage against any of luffy's attacks
    While warcury took no damage,and it damaged luffy himself, even in gear 5

    Oda has been setting up Bonney to get Gear 5 powers. I am not sure why people are upset and surprised. For me, I thought this was wonderful since it basically gives Kuma his dream. He has been beaten down so much, and his sacrifice over his life was for two dreams, 1. For Nika to return to bring peace to the world. and 2. For Bonney to be safe and be able to reach her dreams. Giving her Gear 5 is perfect for this. Maybe others may worry about the mechanics of the story with respect to power scaling and such but for me, One Piece has always been about the heart and souls of characters and I was very happy to see Bonney reaching her and her father's dream after so much hardship.

    One piece.....has never had good powerscaling. Actually no, it was decent pre timeskip when we had the strawhats having the Monster Trio being highlighted more in each arc. Post??? Nah.
    Among the big 3 or just shonen in general, power scaling one piece never crossed my mind and didnt feel worth it. Especially when Luffy pulled second and third gear out of nowhere.
    I havent kept up with one piece, but this doesnt seem to be a case of powerscaling. Its how this new power is obtained is what i think the problem is.
