One Piece

What year do you think Oda peaked as an artist?

Was Akainu stronger than Sengoku when he became fleet admiral?

2013 obviously, he didn't even bother coloring after that

2006

2004 or 2006.

2003 or 2004, probably. Best mixture of his distinctive artstyle with minimally exaggerated anatomy.

2005. Thought it was 2004 at first, but then I realized, I was dead wrong, and it's definitely 2005.

Basically this

artwise, I feel like enies lobby was when oda started drawing less dramatically, and more comically

someone pls shop them smooching

Around 2005 definitely.

They all look like shit, so I guess I'd say he peaked before he started drawing.

Skypea
art wise, best arc by far

>peaked as an artist
>post color version made by another person

there's a difference?

I don't know if I'm just a purist or something, but I could never get into the digital coloured version. The original black and white just looks better.

Yeah, op has no idea what he's talking about.

Who cares, it's shit.

I still stand by 2005, although 2004 and 2006 are fine.

If those pics are generally representative of the character art in those years, then 2013 was shit and at least 2016 is a moderate improvement. There's still something off about the way he draws everyone now that really puts me off slightly, but I honestly could not tell you what makes me feel like that.

2005-2008 is the only right answer here.

Something weird happened to Robin in 07-08. Her hair or something, she looks younger and it's offputting compared to previous years.

He hasn't peaked yet, what he's done is evolve his style. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's worse than what is was before.

Is there a character that could even possibly EVEN TOUCH Marshall D. Teach? Let alone defeat him. And I’m not talking about Shirohige kaizokudan Marshall D. Teach. I’m not talking about Saiaku no Sedai Marshall D. Teach either. Hell, I’m not even talking about Shichibukai Marshall D. Teach with the Yami Yami no Mi, being able to use Kurouzu. I'm talking about Yonko Taisho Marshall D. Teach with the Yami Yami no Mi, Gura Gura no Mi, being able to use Kurozu and Busoshoku Haki.

Prime Sengoku? Similarly strong at most.. He is most likely stronger than old Sengoku though.

when will this meme die?

He completely wet his pants when he saw Justice was coming for him

>still having shit tastes

Luffy, Zolo, Usopp and Vivi were always good.

Sanji is the best from 2001 till the timeskip.

Nami is good until the timeskip.

Choppa is the best till 2005.

Robin was always a cake but she is at her best from 2004 till the timeskip. She became very good again in 2016.

2005 Franky is the best but he is very cool until timeskip.

I'd dare to say Brook became better after the timeskip

2009 Jinbe is the best

Law was always a faggot but if i have to choose, it would be 2008.

So Oda's peak was 2001-2009

Nami is really getting that chopper treatment.
Recent Vivi looks much better.
