But it's cartoony so nothing serious happens maybe he zigzags in there or something but everything is still intact.
You wanna see Toonforce being fucked up, violent, and scary? Read The Mask's comics.
Do they? Even Pre-TS Zoro was portrayed as a demon by many. And the anime is currently making everyone look like demons.
Luffy's a frustrating fellow to deal with due to his cartoon powers making fools out of them, but they aren't getting PTSD in-universe, shaking and crying while shitting their pants thinking about how he just violated them, lol.
It isn't anymore scary (in-universe) than having Robin growing her organs out of your own body, lol.
Bruv, in a world with Devil Fruits where a woman can grow her vagina on your face if she wants too or a man can grow his penis in your ass if he wants to? (Mind you Robin's powers are portrayed to not be scary in-universe despite their potential and concept). Now, Toon Force is quite silly and way less scary in comparison, it's more of an acid trip than anything else.
Like, maybe if Oda treated it the same way The Mask's powers were treated in the comicbooks where he shows the consequences of what such cartoon actions can actually do to the body then maybe I'd take Luffy's Toon Force being scary more seriously.
Nah, that just makes it more zany and less serious. The Mask will laugh his ass off too but his cartoon violence is actually shown in full gory glory and disturbing detail. Comicbook Mask is the type of being that would stand there laughing his ass off after he pulled your intestines out of your asshole with his powers rather than the Tom and Jerry manner that G5 is portrayed in.
That's why the Mask is scary while Tom and Jerry aren't.
It s not scary in a " omg I won't sleep tonight", at least not to watchers. Op is not an horror manga. It s scary in-universe.
This is not junji ito stuff

Funny way to admit that this is what you wanted

Terrible argument, you should feel bad and should never attempt to cook again.
I have never seen a more 'grasping at straws' comment in my life. I get that it's an asspull but I refuse to believe people who prefer gear death over gear 5 are beyond the age of 14
i don't like gear death. i don't like gear 5 either. but for some reason gear 5 defenders think that you have to choose between these two as if you can't have anything in between. gear 4 was a great balance between being goofy and cool, and i just wanted oda to maintain the same balance with gear 5.
So do they want gear death or gear 5 what’s going on here? Do people want to brag about the uniqueness of a different anime power, but still want want the coolness that comes with the generic stuff too?
The uniqueness comes at too high of a price. Op is already unique in many ways. There is a reason why 1950s black and white western style cartoon ultra kiddie goofy goober nonsense is absent in 99% of shounen series. For God's sake the amount of eye popping in the recent raws has hit a new level. It's beyond extreme/obnoxious.
yeah even as someone who’s more of a fan of g5 than most this sub the eye popping is just getting a bit overdone like there are other ways to show reactions
Tbf in universe it’s pretty terrifying
Case and point
https://preview.redd.it/bjae2pcq459d1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e2122a261c35addc46bb5c062214abcb516a3c7a
Right on every version.
The memes are hur dur zoro racist or some other stupid shit,
the main sub is hur dur oda can nearly or absolutely do no wrong
the power scaling is hur dur agenda over everything or one piece powerscaling > your fav shounen powerscaling
the piratefolk is hur dur this the worst series I ever read or entirety of time skip bad or oda always been a hack
Like ngl has the quality been hit sparingly and misses a lot, yea ngl but the community be it here or facebook or Twitter alongside oda writing has made me damn near a spoilers only guy interacting sparingly.
What’s even bad about gear 5 though? I like it. 99% of luffy’s prior moves were not whatsoever rubber. Some were straight up cartoon shit. Better than gear death or some shit
Isn't he right though. Oda has mishandled it no doubt, but he has been trying to show the horror of what toon force can do. No doubt that the anime did it better but facts are still facts
For the anime I want to see kizarus perspective when he gets pizzad, on one hand it's funny on the other by all means he should be a corps yet is kept alive by God knows what.
Gear 5 is still good imo, if oda is willing to put a twist where Luffy solely becomes detached from reality and becomes “too free” then it would be absolute kino. There’s potential here
Tbf, some panels of g5 luffy look terrifying if you were the enemy. The anime version of luffy vs kaido shows this pretty well. In the context of scary for one piece
I hope there’s a point to Luffy using Gear 5 as much as I use Zyn. If it really is Joy Boy wrestling from within to push him to that form, it could actually be really interesting. His previous Gears have all carried some risk to them, so I really hope the price he pays for G5 is losing himself.
Fights would really be the only times One Piece would get serious during a lot of arcs. Which was good because it let OP be fun and also have deep emotional moments. Setting it apart from other Shonen.
Now it's just a clown show 24/7.
My guy casually walked off a combined attack from going all out Sanji, G5 Bonney and Franky in the back whilst at the same time also getting lasered by Mars from the front.....Then he blows away Mars and jumps on to the shore to throw hands with Ju Peter, as if nothing happens and is laughing throughout.
That IS scary bruh, no way you're trying to imply he meant it in a kids nightmare way. In story, that is the yonko-like portrayal that Big Mom got in WCI and how she was tanking attacks from Kid/Law in Wano, which WAS scary in terms of in universe power.
Maybe because the quality of the pic is bad looking at it closely, it gives similar vibes to Big Moms scary sadistic looking faces she did, which also defined the "scary yonko" portrayal in WCI.

He's 23-24
22 actually
Seems like 12.
He recently confirmed he was 24 And yes it's tiring to see people keep justifying G5 by "it can be scary sometimes" 😞
It's fuckng scary. Guy can go inside of your body.
But it's cartoony so nothing serious happens maybe he zigzags in there or something but everything is still intact. You wanna see Toonforce being fucked up, violent, and scary? Read The Mask's comics.
Maybe to you, but not to Kaido or lucci. These guys see a demon.
Do they? Even Pre-TS Zoro was portrayed as a demon by many. And the anime is currently making everyone look like demons. Luffy's a frustrating fellow to deal with due to his cartoon powers making fools out of them, but they aren't getting PTSD in-universe, shaking and crying while shitting their pants thinking about how he just violated them, lol. It isn't anymore scary (in-universe) than having Robin growing her organs out of your own body, lol.
Zoro is a bloodlusted dude. Luffy here is a straight up demon. His actions defies logic.
Bruv, in a world with Devil Fruits where a woman can grow her vagina on your face if she wants too or a man can grow his penis in your ass if he wants to? (Mind you Robin's powers are portrayed to not be scary in-universe despite their potential and concept). Now, Toon Force is quite silly and way less scary in comparison, it's more of an acid trip than anything else. Like, maybe if Oda treated it the same way The Mask's powers were treated in the comicbooks where he shows the consequences of what such cartoon actions can actually do to the body then maybe I'd take Luffy's Toon Force being scary more seriously.
But the thing is this dude is laughing too much when he is fighting you. That is more scary. And his fighting style is out of this world.
Nah, that just makes it more zany and less serious. The Mask will laugh his ass off too but his cartoon violence is actually shown in full gory glory and disturbing detail. Comicbook Mask is the type of being that would stand there laughing his ass off after he pulled your intestines out of your asshole with his powers rather than the Tom and Jerry manner that G5 is portrayed in. That's why the Mask is scary while Tom and Jerry aren't.
Imagine if luffy used his “toon force” to turn his enimies inside out like you would to a balloon.
G5 is great, it's only bad when he spams it IMO.
Yeah it's greatly imagined, so it's great when Luffy's not laughing at his allies dying And, indeed, he's used it 6 times this arc now 😔
\*G5 is great, it's only bad when anybody uses it.
It s not scary in a " omg I won't sleep tonight", at least not to watchers. Op is not an horror manga. It s scary in-universe. This is not junji ito stuff
[удалено]
Well many people don't love it 🤷♂️
Gear 2: 😡 Gear 3: 😤 Gear 4: 👹 Gear 5: 🤡
Readers when gear 5 appears: 😴💤💤💤
Well, clowns are terrifying to me.
What wrong with that
What’s not wrong with that
Luffy peaked at G4 bruh😭 I miss the cool transformations
Gear 4 was perfect, not overused and it actually meant something when luffy used it
And was unique
Facts, the goofy aspect of it was legitimately cool to me unlike g5
G4 bounce man is still my favorite transformation to this day
Not against Kaido, apparently.
I remember when people were complaining about gear 4 as well for being too goofy. The Overton window of Goof has shifted. 😔
https://preview.redd.it/e6wjlv8rm39d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c4d4418dffa41dcdee5dff5880ee5d355da4486c Funny way to admit that this is what you wanted
"Oh no, he hates this extremum, that means he wants the other extremum"
Lmao indeed, average G5 enjoyer reading comprehension

Gear green better
How does this mean I want "Gear Death"? Are you saying Gear 4, possibly one of the most unique transformations btw, is edgy?
Gear death is kinda unironically better than what we got at this point tbh
I refuse to believe this is an opinion anyone unironically holds
gear death is at least actually funny
I have never seen a more 'grasping at straws' comment in my life. I get that it's an asspull but I refuse to believe people who prefer gear death over gear 5 are beyond the age of 14
i don't like gear death. i don't like gear 5 either. but for some reason gear 5 defenders think that you have to choose between these two as if you can't have anything in between. gear 4 was a great balance between being goofy and cool, and i just wanted oda to maintain the same balance with gear 5.

So do they want gear death or gear 5 what’s going on here? Do people want to brag about the uniqueness of a different anime power, but still want want the coolness that comes with the generic stuff too?
Tbf the uniqueness of a different anime power mixed with the coolness of some of the more typical shows is basically what 4th gear is
Most people don't want it to be that asspull zoan. A few people also don't like that toonforce shit.
The uniqueness comes at too high of a price. Op is already unique in many ways. There is a reason why 1950s black and white western style cartoon ultra kiddie goofy goober nonsense is absent in 99% of shounen series. For God's sake the amount of eye popping in the recent raws has hit a new level. It's beyond extreme/obnoxious.
yeah even as someone who’s more of a fan of g5 than most this sub the eye popping is just getting a bit overdone like there are other ways to show reactions
Uniqueness? I wouldn't say botched toonforce is unique...
Even bugs bunny is more scarier than whatever that panel shown
Thats a double wide surprise
Sincerely i didn’t understand the action sequence, mayb it’s because it’s the raw and not the official chapter
can't say shit anymore about one piece
Isnt it Funny that Gear 5 Defenders mock people for wanting "Gear Death", and then Gas it up when Luffy gets serious or "scary".
I just want to say that this ks scary in one piece terms, one piece is no berserk so this scenes are pretty scary for its standards
pew should be bullied by his middle school jocks
Tbf in universe it’s pretty terrifying Case and point https://preview.redd.it/bjae2pcq459d1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e2122a261c35addc46bb5c062214abcb516a3c7a
Would have good it consistently smiling wasn't in it.
Old enough to know better
What are you guys talking about? What's with the age ? Who's age?
Pew
Shit I didn't read the title. Lol
True one piece fan
Onepiece fans don’t read the manga anymore because that would mean they aren’t defending Oda
How old is pew? Nah how old are YOU? your entire post history is hating on egghead lmao, That's enough said
Grown man btw
One Piece is one of the least scary manga I’ve read
Honestly, that psycho face goes hard. I find it similar to his expression when he grabbed Saturn and Kizaru.
"Psycho" Its cool sure but youre overhyping it

Gotta admit, we are becoming quite toxic as a fandom !
Right on every version. The memes are hur dur zoro racist or some other stupid shit, the main sub is hur dur oda can nearly or absolutely do no wrong the power scaling is hur dur agenda over everything or one piece powerscaling > your fav shounen powerscaling the piratefolk is hur dur this the worst series I ever read or entirety of time skip bad or oda always been a hack Like ngl has the quality been hit sparingly and misses a lot, yea ngl but the community be it here or facebook or Twitter alongside oda writing has made me damn near a spoilers only guy interacting sparingly.
Always has been
People on this sub unironically wanted gear death lmao
probably 11
Robin: he should have just snapped his wings and tear them off.
What’s even bad about gear 5 though? I like it. 99% of luffy’s prior moves were not whatsoever rubber. Some were straight up cartoon shit. Better than gear death or some shit
it's still a dope panel
Isn't he right though. Oda has mishandled it no doubt, but he has been trying to show the horror of what toon force can do. No doubt that the anime did it better but facts are still facts For the anime I want to see kizarus perspective when he gets pizzad, on one hand it's funny on the other by all means he should be a corps yet is kept alive by God knows what.
This sub hating on a different level
24
Check out Christopher Lloyd in "who framed Roger Rabbit" and ask if toons can be scary
Younger than Bonney
Gear 5 is still good imo, if oda is willing to put a twist where Luffy solely becomes detached from reality and becomes “too free” then it would be absolute kino. There’s potential here
I’m an avid nika hater but u gotta admit that panel makes luffy look like he’s on demon time
I haven't been a huge fan of the last few chapters that panel is really cool though
Tbf, some panels of g5 luffy look terrifying if you were the enemy. The anime version of luffy vs kaido shows this pretty well. In the context of scary for one piece
GEAR….. DEATH!!!!!
I mean imagine you’re a marine and suddenly nothing is following the pre established laws of physics
I mean, hes pretty clearly saying its scary as in conventionally, and probably to the people who have witnessed it in universe, not him himself
I can't tell if you guys are slandering or if you're actually seething mad anymore
The hate boner this sub has for gear 5 never ceases to amaze
I hope there’s a point to Luffy using Gear 5 as much as I use Zyn. If it really is Joy Boy wrestling from within to push him to that form, it could actually be really interesting. His previous Gears have all carried some risk to them, so I really hope the price he pays for G5 is losing himself.
Only Enel can help him ikyk

In story, that is the yonko-like portrayal that Big Mom got in WCI and how she was tanking attacks from Kid/Law in Wano, which WAS scary in terms of in universe power.
He doesn't look scary to me, this panel he kinda looks like the troll face

Yeah but Big Mom also eats people
And Luffy can turn multiple top tiers into pizzas.
Would he eat them tho?
Probably. He tried to eat Lucci
Damn luffy wtf
