Reminder that if Sanji doesn't get a good fight this arc he is done for as a character.
His fanbase will fall apart and Jinbei will take his place as the crew's warrior and his rivalry with Zoro will fall apart. Cooking just isn't that important to warrant a spotlight. It's not even like Nami, chopper, Franky or Robin who have life saving or game changing skills. And his personality is too bland to stand out like Usopp or Brook.
Being the second strongest fighter was all he had and if he loses this he'll just become a gag character
inb4 Katakuri fags shit up the thread with their retardation.

Why is it not surprising that Katakurifags are literal homosexuals?

There's literally no complexity to it, chocolate is literally children's palette shit.
Colton Ross
Literally the majority of Luffy's opponents that he's beaten have looked tougher than him, and guess what? He's beaten them just like hes about to beat Katakuri.

after tengu-kun pulled his mutiny he was given a big redeem in thriller bark so even if easy bake oven just makes a cake this arc i'm sure he'll pull another "master strategist" sanji moment in wano.

Any Katakurifags here? I want to kick your asses
Blake Robinson
>Luffy worshipper gives no solid reason as to why luffy will come out of this alive remember one thing: When ace died luffy mentally broke down. If his crew dies he'll go back to being a husk of a naive child, realizingthis is the real world. There is no niche G4 variation thatcan out do katakuri because mochiman is advancedon every level.
Sanji bakes a cake then leaves firmly assuring all his fans he is USELESS. Couldn'tbeat washed up old dad and dad was raped by big meme EZ.

Guys I'm in the middle of Skypeia right now, I don't know how much more of this I can take. They just discovered the island was split, and I still don't care about anyone or what they're doing or why, please tell me it gets better.

Chapter 880: The Ex-Minister of Cakes Cover: Sai and Baby 5's wedding, Chinjao crying tears of happiness, empty chair between Chinjao and Boo as Boo flirts with Uholicia being restrained from stopping the wedding by nearby friends Pudding Sanji Chiffon set down outside Pudding's cafe Some of the nearby towns people confusedly celebrate her marriage, and Pudding angrily plays along, something about a honey moon (getting ready for it?) Inside we see Pudding's impressive collection of chocolates and cooking gear Sanji complements it and Pudding is momentarily love mode and runs behind Chiffon Chiffon: "This is no good. We have the tools and materials but not the man power. Why did I let my dear husband stay behind?" *Knock on the door*
Luffy stumbles up from the rubble. Katakuri: "Did you really think you could take on Mama? You don't need my foresight to see the end of this story." Luffy wipes the blood from his mouth on his arm with an evil grin. Katakuri is extremely shocked: "Everybody get back!"
Chiffon: "Father?!" Pound: "I came as fast as I could. Do you know what your husband has done?! We need to get you out of here!" Chiffon: "No, this is destiny. Who better to help us than the Ex-Minister of Cakes?!" Pound is frightened as he notices Sanji is here too.
Nami: "She's already catching up!" Chopper and Carrot and Brooks are freaking out as Big Mam charging in the background. Jinbei: "Keep going. Get the ship ready for another burst. I'll try to keep her back with the currents." Perospero: "He's slowing her down. I'll to deal with him myself." Charges out in front on wave of candy. Jinbei closes his eyes meditating with all his concentration. Perospero lunges forward laughing maniacally at Jinbei. Carrot blocks his attack with a flash of lightning. Flashback: Pedro motivates a training Carrot "You must become strong so you can protect your friends!" Tears in her angry eyes as she stares down an amused Perospero.
Dylan Wood
G4 is based in compression tech. It has far more destructive/speed output than something Katakuri can imitate. If Luffy is hiding a speedform of g4, then Kata would not be able to keep up.

I thought Luffy not fighting back against Sanji was noble. Why is it a bad thing again?
Austin Cox
>i'm sure he'll pull another "master strategist" sanji moment in wano.
You realize Wano will have too many characters to focus on Sanji who just had his very own arc? 4 Supernova if not more and their crews, Marco and his crew, The entire country who's just as massive as any seen so far, Kaido and his immense crew, The Samurai and Poneglyph clan, Robin, Zoro most of all, possibly Moria and other schibukai/Marines...
Sanji needs to do something this arc or he's done.
Jaxon Long
I bet there's gonna be a hint of Awakening in the Katakuri fight.
Like the floor around Katakuri is going to become rubbery and he'll lose his footing giving Luffy an opening or something.
James Anderson
So what's the texture of mochi really like?
Cooper Ramirez

Alexander Nelson
When is he gonna use okama/newkama techniques? He had to have learned something from them aside from the cooking.

Michael Gray
I would be okay with this, I would not be okay with having an extended fight using awakening all the time.
Dylan Jackson
so is it just me or has this whole arc basically been carrot's job interview? even zou was foreshadowing that "minks are fiercely loyal and trustworthy", and then WCI is basically Carrot's test run, and so far she's saved others as often as she's been saved, even taking down high ranking yonkou pirates. Then we get to see her reaction to a close friend "dying": she pulls herself together quickly in order to do her job and keep a lookout.
how is carrot in any way not qualified to be a fully fledged member now?
Aiden Wood
What time did the spoiler pics come out last week?

Tyler Davis
I would be okay with a magellan like escape, but the situation does not look like Impel Down. Luffy is 1v1 vs a Commander, surrounded by fodder. Luffy will win this fight.
Gabriel Sullivan
Fuck off, Luffyfag.
Katakuri will make the floor sticky instead
Zachary Green
Why do people want this useless whore in the crew?
Landon Martin
Characterfagging is the worst thing to come out of these threads.
Levi Fisher
Only until Brulee wakes up.
Best idea for Luffy is to isolate Katakuri in Mirror World and leave him behind since the Sunny is under a more dire situation and Sunny already got parts of it chewed off by Big Mom
Julian Lopez

Hunter Sanchez
Characterfagging will be at it's best during interactions with Kaido in Wano. Once Kaido shows up I will shitpost in every thread.
Kevin Diaz
This.
Cancer ranking. 1. Jobposting/"[character]fags BLOWN THE FUCK OUT" 2. Shipping faggotry 3. Hackposting. 4. "Nothing happens" 5. "[New character] for nakama!"
Brandon Sanchez
Luffy won't leave now. He had a dramatic farewell which means he won't see them for a while.
Colton Ward
There are no qualifications to become a strawhat. However Carrot is a bad choice from a storytelling perspective because her character is bland, her and her goals are too generic.
Adam Bennett
>When is he gonna use okama/newkama techniques?
Would be akin to character assassination and piss off half the fanbase. Oda won't do that, his editors won't let him.
Camden Martin
But I want him to do it so my hackposting can further be fueled.
Jace Jackson
Its like these people dont even care about the story...oh wait they probably dont. Honestly dont even know why I come here anymore cause the memes are stale and the discussion is consistently shit.
Andrew Thompson
Pre 2012 One Piece Sup Forums threads will not come back anymore. Time to accept that.
>daily threads since fucking forever running out of material to discuss what a fucking surprise.
Justin Rogers
fuck you, actual spoilers here
Pudding manipulates the memories of the cooks and under Sanji's leadership, they began making the cake. In the mirror world, Brulee finds another mirror connecting to the Sunny. Luffy tries to break it but is prevented by Katakuri. Luffy contacts Nami from one of the fragments of the fallen mirror. He orders her to break all the mirrors on the ship.
"Hurry and break them! All of them! The enemies will flood in! I can't stop them all by myself! Let me concentrate just on this guy!"
Nami receives Luffy's order and just as everyone is about to break the mirrors on the Sunny, the situation quickly changes. Big Mom imbued the sea with a soul and directed a large wave to swallow up the Sunny.
"Hello? I'm sorry Luffy... We are... probably already doomed..."
Ryder Sanchez
>i want to be a brave warrior how bland can you get? >the whole planet is a sea, but i want to find the sea with fish from all over the world! that was literally fishman island, clearly sanji did not give a fuck about the biodiversity there, so idk why he would give a fuck about all blue >greatest swordsman really gonna talk about "generic"? maybe you should just admit your mistake that generic was poor word choice, and you meant something else instead
Jeremiah Ward
she has big bunny titties
Levi Diaz
Agree. People are just overreacting over anything she does because she's a girl. I'd rather have Pekoms if a mink had to join.
Benjamin Gray
>how bland can you get? Ussop is one of the most complex character on the crew. A mix of cowardly but brave, and adds humor to the crew. His skills make him an all rounder and his fighting style is actually unique. We know other minks have carrots style of fighting.
>that was literally fishman island, clearly sanji did not give a fuck about the biodiversity there, so idk why he would give a fuck about all blue
FIshman Island isn't all blue.
>really gonna talk about "generic"? maybe you should just admit your mistake that generic was poor word choice, and you meant something else instead
Zoro was a much needed member of the crew and his initial distrust of him as well as his flashback doesnt really make him a generic character.
Carrot's characteristics are essentially mimics of Chopper and Luffy. She is not really a unique mix to the crew and does not add anything new to crew interactions. This is evident when she is shown copying Luffy and Chopper's reactions.
She can still join but I'm giving you reasons as to why it would be bad from a storytelling perspective.
Chase Brooks
problem is that the market wants more titties. 1 dude per tit minimum should be the counting system they use while solving this equation.
Joshua Foster
>because her character is bland And yet the first recruit has been Zoro. Who is still bland as fuck. >her goals are too generic This is dumb as fuck. No one has complex goals and they should not be.

Even a couple years ago there were threads with good discussion in them. Just don't reply to shitposters and start decent conversation instead. What are your favourite fan theories? Mine are Crocomom and "Luffy is Roger"
Nathaniel Scott
Jimbei had an entire arc backing up why his dreams are important. It's not really as generic as ADVENTURE!!!. especially considering thats essentially what Luffy's dream is as well.
Austin Rivera

Blake Morales
You said Carrot's goals were generic. In your entire post, you did not once explain how her goal were any more generic than various strawhat members, you simply bring up their fighting style and personality, which are literally the most easily countered arguments to her not joining.
>I'm giving you reasons as to why You haven't given me one.
Asher Nelson

Bobbins will fix BM after she eats the cake by waking her up allowing her to chase the SH's in a sane state.
Levi Bailey
Let's see, as far as "fighting styles" go, there is: >haki >devil fruits >weapons >gimmicks
Usopp does gimmicks so that wouldn't be unique. Zoro and Franky use weapons so that wouldn't be unique. Robin and Brook use devil fruits so that wouldn't be unique. Luffy is the haki specialist, so that wouldn't be unique either. What is unique again? Something that we have never seen before in one piece?
Benjamin Rodriguez
I find it's bullshit Luffy lived in the jungle for most of his life yet doesn't know how to cook.
Oliver Wood
Reminder that Ace died cause he stopped running and got himself fisted for it. Reminder that The Will of Running is the most over powered ability in One Piece. Sabo and Luffy are the only ones who are still continuing the will of R and still alive to this day. Never give up running towards your goal in life or you will fail like Ace had.
Evan Ward
>he thinks this is an argument

He cooked in Amazon Lily. He only knows how to cook meat with fire and that's it.

Dude, no one thinks Carrot's fighting style is "unique" the argument is that it shouldn't matter whether it is. If that's what you think this is about, you're hopelessly retarded.

Does the person posting this think that everyone is under the delusion that Carrot is the only claw-glove using mink?
Pedro literally gave her the gloves, of fucking course if it's a viable weapon there will be other people using it. Carrotphobes truly are the bottom of the barrel when it comes to logistics.
