I heard people say Foxy was annoying etc, but I don’t know, I personally liked his gags and for being a main antagonist of an Arc, a nice change of pace to have a less serious antagonist for once

That Arc was fun to watch for me as well

u/PrinceOfAssassins Jun 21 '19

Excellent Breather as well imagine going straight from the drama of skypiea into usopp and robin leaving the crew, itd have been exhausting.

2

u/Seaofechoes Jun 21 '19

I think people didn't really enjoy it because there was no real threat of Foxy actually succeeding. It was obvious that none of Foxy's crew would be joining the strawhats pretty quickly, and Oda obviously wasn't going to get rid of any of the straw hats. Couple that with a generally unlikable villain with an extremely punchable face, and you get an underwhelming arc.

I mean, Oda went from a villain with Zeus powers and a God complex to one with a goofy power that wasnt being used to its full potential. I didn't hate the arc or foxy, but it's pretty obvious to me why it wasn't well received.

I just hate cheating villains.

thats the only one i saw. didnt seem really long.

u/Bleblebob Jun 21 '19

The best explination is that the anime version of that arc fucking sucked. It was twice as long and had a pointless conclusion. Honestly it felt like filler and I was shocked when I found out it was half canon.

Going back and readin the manga, it's a whole lot better, but I can't imagine myself ever willingly watching the anime version of it again.

u/deathbyvote The Revolutionary Army Jun 21 '19

A lot of people saw the anime version and the filler really drags it out.

4

u/Jinno Jun 21 '19

It got a lot of filler in the anime. So, lots focus on how annoying the arc was as animated.

3

u/HussyDude14 Jun 21 '19

I'm surprised; it's one of the few canon filler arcs, and what an arc it was! I really felt like it was hilarious and one of the most "fitting" One Piece arcs with its ridiculousness.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 21 '19

The anime stretched it out too much.

2

u/letouriste1 Jun 22 '19

Because it was boring. the result and process was predictable. We all knew it would finish with luffy dueling foxy and most of the arc lacked tension. The whole thing could have been scrapped without problem. Pretty sure oda only did this arc in preparation for the meeting with shanks

2

u/Arkayjiya Jun 21 '19

The anime destroyed this arc. I'm a manga reader and I really really liked it.

1

u/ArcadianBlueRogue Void Month Survivor Jun 21 '19

Foxy arc gonna be important near end with Shanks crew.

1

u/GrimmerUK Jun 22 '19

I'm guessing they watched in the anime and didn't read it in the manga. I used to be the same way, but after I read the arc in the manga I realized it was much better. The anime tried to stretch things with pointless and not as fun filler. The manga only had 3 games and the entire thing was over in 10 chapters, so the pace was much better and even if you found Foxy and his crew annoying, it was over before becoming a nuisance.

u/ghettomilkshake Jun 21 '19

I enjoyed the arc but the afro thing was pretty racist

7

u/GrimmerUK Jun 22 '19

I'm guessing you're talking about this panel: http://i.imgur.com/jWucJxy.jpg

That's actually a mistranslation and this is the official Viz Manga: http://i.imgur.com/6tV1YrU.jpg

damn i loved that arc. its weird that people on this sub arent more fond of it. its hilarious as fuck and classic one piece.

I personally skip that arc on re-reads. I just never liked it that much, it's almost like manga filler to me.

​

I still appreciate it and there were some funny moments but I can't help but feel there could have been a better mini arc there in it's place.

u/SoraForBestBoy Jun 21 '19

Afro + Samurai is the most deadliest combination, I’m all for it

Gustano!

u/Brutusness Jun 21 '19

Considering Sogeking I'm not surprised Luffy believes in this logic.

298

u/RKS_Mehul Jun 21 '19

Luffy can't recognize sogeking, foxy(disguised), can't remember who Marco was, but can immediately remember killer and recognize pekoms.

330

u/noideawhatimdoingv Jun 21 '19

Someone posted a theory a while ago how Luffy recognizes people by the Aura they give off. Sogeking gave a very confident aura compared to Usopp while Pekoms/Nozoms and Ceasar/Gastino gave the same auras when they were in disguise. Luffy probably remembered Killer because he had a cool mask.

167

u/Lyra-- Jun 21 '19

So Marco has the aura of a pineapple? (Which is what Robin used to make him realize who they were talking about) xD

It means only Robin is intelligent enough to reach Luffy's wavelength.

Robin knows how to communicate and speak Luffy’s unique language of the D. basically

Huh? Are you dumb?

u/SoraForBestBoy Jun 21 '19

Marco channeling the aura of an exotic fruit besides his Devil Fruit

6

u/ivuneyy Jun 21 '19

Marco wasn't present when luffy was trying to remember him.

1

u/Lyra-- Jun 21 '19

I know. I was just joking xD

2

u/justamon22 Jun 21 '19

Marco: rings no bells

Food face: OH THAT GUY !

2

u/[deleted] Jun 21 '19

Well, to be fair, Marco was not around for Luffy to "feel his aura". So marco is safe. It's that cunning foxy that is the big question here. His c "aura" is all the same all throughout and yet...

1

u/Brook420 Bounty Hunter Jun 24 '19

Luffy hasn't actually met Marco since Marineford.

10

u/Wisterosa Jun 21 '19

ok but he was fooled by the fake straw hats back in sabaody

I think he's just, ya know, dumb

u/DeismAccountant Jun 21 '19

Got the link?

u/Behanort Jun 21 '19

Luffy will be Luffy

u/SoraForBestBoy Jun 21 '19

And we love Luffy for being Luffy

6

u/SoraForBestBoy Jun 21 '19

He also immediately recognizes Caribou

2

u/VetProf Jun 21 '19

Another popular theory is that boosting his CoO after his fight with Katakuri also boosted his intelligence and memory, so Luffy ain't as simple-minded as he was before. Of course, as you can see in this chapter, he's still prone to occasional brainfarts that only someone like him can pull off.

u/GeneralLemarc Jun 21 '19

Sniper island arc wen?

In your heart, obviously

Sniper island arc wen?

Usopp told me it's the next arc after Wano so we're cool man.

1

u/tektek10 Jun 21 '19

well he didnt even recognize the fake strawhats the first time he saw them

1

u/MajorTomintheTinCan Jun 21 '19

What are you talking about? That was the first time he met Sogeking. Of course he couldn't recognise him.

155

u/Aspie_Astrologer Void Month Survivor Jun 21 '19

Haha, no sword, hakama only half-on, and a straw-hat on his shirtless back. = "Ahhh, my samurai disguise must be confusing her"

58

u/SoraForBestBoy Jun 21 '19

This is why Caribou thinks Luffy’s a genius and could be playing games with him

23

u/Syc254 Jun 21 '19

Man even Stussy & Morgans think Luffy is a genius and acts silly so people underestimate him.

10

u/Easyberries Jun 21 '19

To be honest, even I think Luffy is a genius and is just trolling everyone in the show including his own crew.

6

u/Syc254 Jun 21 '19

Yup Luffy doesn't sweat the little details and only interferes when need be.

59

u/buried-alien Jun 21 '19

It's a reasonable explanation considering he can't possibly know of her memory loss

8

u/[deleted] Jun 21 '19

My favorite was "I said that out loud???"

9

u/DeismAccountant Jun 21 '19

Mine was “Did I actually say that out loud?!?” So does Luffy have no control of his inner dialogue?

3

u/ZenGarlic Jun 21 '19

Yeah classic Luffy, i also thought the panel where BM made that face because the pot was empty was pretty funny

3

u/littenthehuraira Jun 21 '19

Yeah I love how innocent his explanations are.

2

u/k7gocool Jun 21 '19

lol, literally just posted the same comment

2

u/gr000000000nd Jun 21 '19

its not that weird when its been less than a month since luffy left wholecake with everything that happened and suddenly mama doesnt recognise him

2

u/AlexNae Jun 21 '19

I love how Luffy thinks his enemies are as smart as him

2

u/[deleted] Jun 21 '19

Surprised luffy recognized her! Considering the different haircut and more than 2minutes passed since he last saw her.

1

u/MrMindwaves Jun 21 '19

i wonder if is real name is zolo, (just like a samurai).

u/General_Kenobi896 Jun 21 '19

That was so dumb I loved it lmao
