Mikasa said: Fantasee said: I said that's the probable scenario. The key word is probable, which means I wasn't talking in absolutes. Nice attempt to spin my words though. I wanted you to list them so I could attempt to refute them. I'm not just going to look at your list of supposed plotholes and plug my ears. I'll try to explain to you why I believe they aren't. But if you don't want to name them, that's fine too I guess. Doesn't change the fact that your behavour was dismissive fanboyism. I'll list one and see how you're gonna act: Kuma sending SH to exact locations, knowing the exact coordinates, means not only that the world has been charted, but people can actually navigate via coordinates. Not only does that render the Log Poses useless, but it contradicts with the idea that you can't go around without them. It always existed the eternal poses! It was never said that it didn't existed any chart of parts of the world/of the grand line. In reality it was never said that there wasn't a chart of the world. The only thing said was that Nami wanted to chart all the world. Kuma ability was presented as the ability to send people to a place of his knowledge. How is that harder to believe than a guy with rubber body? He did something like that way in Thriller Bark, did you thought that was a plot hole when he sent Perona to her "Vacation"? Also you're confusing location with navigation. You may know where someplace his, their exact coordinates, but when you're navigating with a vehicle that can go astray due to external forces, like ships and planes, you need to have a reference all the time, and so that is why a compass is needed and used. Not because the coordinates aren't known! There was never said that the coordinates of the places weren't known. In reality the countries of the world government have close relationships, they even have a meeting every some years(I believe is 4, but I'm not sure). Is hard to believe that the countries don't know the locations of each others. The locations are only not known to the Strawhat and to us the readers. Not to the rest of the people. Given that Kuma ability doesn't go directly to the place and it doesn't go astray, than it doesn't need any kind of compass, to send somebody there. |

| @big I know and agree, but while Nami stated that the GL cannot be simply navigated by coordination due to said forces, now... if it were a matter of reference points/levels, and Kuma's ability can defy said external forces and accomplish such great accuracy, then he could really send people anywhere. Including... And are calm belts really charted from the inside? Skyislands too? Not to mention the Cross-Redline sending. And sensing Perona from a ship, how did he know his exact location, the ship did move iirc, does he have GPS or something? Nami has drawn many maps, she must know some coordinates. There must be some books and maps over the years concerning SOME islands at least. Not all books were in Ohara you know |

Still today people use compasses(normally the computer automatically makes the calculations and tells where the boat is and where is going) even when knowing the coordinates. Crocus(not Nami) explained that Grand Line can't be traveled with a normal compass because it uses magnetic field and the Grand Line is full of them. That has nothing to do with coordinates. The reason a compass is used when traveling by boat is not because of location(coordinates), but because of the direction of the vehicle. Kuma could send people anywhere. Anywhere that he knew about! And the important word here is "could". I don't see the problem of Kuma discovering where Raftel is and still not sending nobody there. You know, a person ability to do something doesn't mean he has to do it. Also note that the only people that know where Raftel is, only people that said that it existed, are Gold D. Roger and his crew, something that Kuma didn't made part of. Saying that is a plot hole that Kuma can send people to Raftel and doesn't do it, is the same to say that Rayleigh, Shanks and Buggy(Is possible that Shanks and Buggy didn't know the place because they were apprentices and maybe didn't went with crew at that time) know where Raftel is and not going there or sending somebody there is a plot hole. Note that Kuma was only helping the Straw Hat to escape from Kizaru. About the calm belts. The Marines travel trough them, the Kuja pirates too and probably the World Government as well(including the tenryuubito). Rayleigh knew where the Amazon Lily was, he even went there swimming and he and Hancock knew where the island Luffy trained Haki was. Most certainly there is a chart, and if there isn't one, isn't hard to make one. Some Sky Islands certainly are. Not only in Skypiea people knew where others Sky Islands were, but when Nami was with that old guy, he knew where other sky islands were. It was shown in the SBS and maybe even in her section of the story when she was there. What the problem of sending somebody across the redline? You know that it isn't indefinitely high right? Fisher Tiger climbed it with his bare hands. Also the specificity of how Kuma would send somebody across the redline isn't known, because we didn't saw him doing it even once. You're nitpicking. Thriller bark was stopped at that moment just drifting, they were in the Florian Triangle(known location) and to had to it Kuma is a Pacifista. Even without that there wouldn't exist a problem. Do you know with is suspension of disbelief. Kuma has a devil fruit that permits him to send people to a certain location. The way of how he sends them is not described. So we readers just believe it works. he doesn't even need to know where he is right now. Discussing the degree of precision and the kind of information that he would need to send someone to a certain place is certainly nitpicking. Coordinates of what? She lived all her life in the East Blue, an Ocean. Are you saying that she should have known coordinates of the Grand line? You know that the Grand Line is inhabited by a lot of countries and people right? Like Drum island, Alabasta, Water 7 and connected islands, Sabaondy Archipelago. Of course there are maps and coordinates for the islands of the Grand Line. Robin when she was villain she even knew maritime routes to go to Alabasta, and even knew about Little Garden. Also, During the Timeskip she was studying in the Sky Island about the islands in the New World. She studied at least about the island that rained permanent Thunders, that was shown. |
| this thing again? don't you have another more interesting plothole rather than this make-believe plothole? |

| Pre TS One piece is more enjoyable than post TS imo, at least for the moment. Arcs have become unneccessarily long and the pacing is mind numbingly slow ( this is particularly true for the anime). However, the thing I like the most about one piece is still well executed (world building). I liked the comedy in pre ts op ( the best of any shonen I know) but lately it's become very annoying like one infamous Sanji moment. Overall It's still enjoyable and will probably pick up soon. As for the Plot hole discussion, well Oda should be given credit for creating such a long manga with not too many of them. I can't think of any major one but if we're talking about smaller ones then off the top of my head, there are several I can list: 1- Sanji didn't know that people that eat DF can't swim when he first meets Luffy, but in TB saga he said that he used to read a book about DFs and that he knew about the abilities It gave and weakness they had. 2- Zoro knew in the TB saga what a Samurai is, he doesn't know it anymore.( haven't read this since so it maybe a translation mistake or memory loss or something like that) 3- Pell survives the explosion of a nuke.(the biggest one) 4- Mr.3 floating ( Oda retconned this in an SBS and the anime included a piece of "super floating wood" but the manga has no such thing so it's a manga only plothole). 5- Sanji's diable jambe. This is a plot hole as well as an asspull. The explanation given to it pre ts is that Sanji spins his leg at high speeds which causes their ignition through friction. I know that One piece's world has different laws of Physics but my problem is that there were characters much faster than Sanji back then ( like luffy) so why don't they ignite due to friction too? Post time skip, his power doesn't even make sense so I will just wait for Oda's explanation.( the real explanation not the joke he said about "Sanji's heart"). 6- Where does Nami keep her climatact? Absalom's zombie tailor didn't see it when he undressed her but later she pulls it out of her wedding dress. ( I'm not sure if this is a plot hole. etc. I don't think the Raftel one can be called a plot hole right now for reasons mentioned as well as for the fact that Oda will probably explore it again later. |

Also, During the Timeskip she was studying in the Sky Island about the islands in the New World. She studied at least about the island that rained permanent Thunders, that was shown. I guess you're right, except for 3 points: 1- The major difference here is not the ease of access but necessity. Without the Log Pose it would be near impossible to land on the islands of GL by navigating, by calculating speed, direction and relative distance. That was the point emphasized. 2- Kuma, if his power were to be as we described it, then he's have to know the exact location. 3- general follow up to #2, for coordinates, they need to know the relative distance from one point to the other, if all these islands so far apart were charted, it would mean the a great portion of the world has been detailed very well, that in itself is not a plot hole, but the fact goes against what was establised so far; great connections like these would minimize the distance (metaphorically i.e globalization), there would be no time difference as we's see in Little Garden, and such. The entire establishment of the GL being this untamed place seems off with that in mind. As for Nami, she doesn't gave access to any info about GL? Hasn't any passed somewhere? Redline's issue, it's about being able to send them both(or four)-ways. The traversibility of the world is very shaky, is it almost completely charted? Is it Not at all? Or almost there? Etc? |

RedRoseFring said: Agafin said: 9/10. Now you can "Smiiile againnn!!! Thank you ;-) On a more serious note, I think that you should stop with this stuff, I don’t know what problem you have with me but if you consider me to be a troll, you can always ignore me. Believe it or not I like One piece very much but this thread asked about our opinions on current one piece compared to the previous one so I gave mine which was mainly made of negative points because I like it less than before. Of course if I’m asked to tell my general opinion or the things I like about it then I will. I know that One piece being a popular series is a magnet to troll/haters but discarding someone’s opinion just because he/she criticizes something in One piece is not the thing to do but makes you look like a fanboy( I’m not saying that you are one but judging from your arguments in the thread about One piece’s rank, I’m not the only one to whom you do this and you even called someone immature there). Also, the sarcastic/superior/condescending tone you use is not the best for discussion. If you are still bitter about that hiatus discussion then I think I already apologized for it. Rather than throwing baits everywhere, I believe the right thing to do would be to either counter my points if you believe they are wrong, acknowledge their truth if you can’t disprove them or completely ignore them if you believe I’m trolling. That’s what I would do. But of course you are not me and so you can do as you please. |
Dahaka_ said: Agafin said: When people try to list One Piece plotholes and all they can come up with is this petty stuff - it really makes me proud of Oda. - So… you agree that they are plot holes? - You being proud of Oda is normal since he created your favorite anime/manga. However, if the reason for that is the smaller number of plot holes then I can definitely not share that sentiment due to the way the one piece world is designed. There are absolutely no rules in one piece. Any thing that looks like that would be changed whenever the plot demands it. For example, the laws of the devil fruit have been changed so many times I wouldn’t even be surprised if at one point Oda introduces a user that can swim. Also, One piece uses the trope called nonesensoleum which makes things that would have otherwise be plot holes as just bullshit like Usopp taking a 4 ton hit without dying despite his low durability. This greatly cheapens it in my opinion. Let me ask you this question: You have two manga, the first one has very strict rules and takes itself seriously by limiting gag feats for comedy purposes only and you discover that it has 1000+ chapters and only about 10 plot holes. Would you be amazed? I certainly would. The second one is about a sleeping boy and takes place in his dream. He has to find a way to wake up and that is the goal of the story. Given that this story takes place in a dream, you can have houses dancing and singing, clouds being made of popcorn, cars moving upside down etc and none of these would be a plot hole because, well it’s a dream. You then discover that it has only two plot holes after 1000+ chapters. Would you be amazed? I definitely wouldn’t. The first is an analogy to Naruto and the second to One piece. That’s why I consider that Kishi gets too much undeserved criticism/hate for his plot holes compared to Oda since his world is more complex and serious, hence more prone to plot holes even with the same amount of effort.(There aren’t even so many to begin with, just haters inflating the numbers) - Sanji is a crew member and so a plot hole involving his power is not what I would call “petty”. By that logic you may just consider any plot hole petty. Maybe that’s what you do with One piece anyway. - The fact that Oda always tries to hand wave these issues/plot holes in interviews/SBS shows that he definitely doesn’t minimize them( like in the mr 3’s example above). At least, it shows that he cares for his work/fans which is indeed something to be proud of. |
Drunk_Samurai said: Agafin said: 1) Mistranslation. 2) Mistranslation. 3) Just because somebody survived something that they should have died from does not make it a plot hole. That's ridiculous. 4) http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Kuuigosu 5) Not even close to being a plot hole. 6) Same as above. 1 and 2 are mistranslations? Hmmm I would have to check them back, I’m sure the Sanji one is also in the anime as well. 3- The fact that it doesn’t have an explanation shows that it is a plot hole. It makes no sense for a fodder character to survive a nuke. 4- The wiki source you linked clearly states that the wood was not visible. The fact that the kuusoigu or however it’s spelled never existed in the show before shows that it was retconned. That’s why the anime version included a table iirc. If you see a df user swimming, it is a plot hole. Even if 500 chapters later Oda says it is possible for some to swim, it just means he hand waved/retconned but it’s still a plot hole. The same applies here. Anyway, the explanation was pretty funny so I would let that slide. 5- The power doesn’t make sense within the OP world so I think it’s a plot hole. How does Sanji’s leg not burn? If the fire is caused by friction due to high speeds, why does luffy not ignite as well since he’s faster and hence should have more friction exerted on him. 6- It’s a minor one but I honestly can’t think of an explanation. So unless otherwise proved it’s a… plot hole. So, I agree with your explanations of 2 and 4(kinda), I will check 1, 6 is somewhat insignificant . 3 and 5 are still hanging though. I have a couple others if you have the time to disprove them for me: 7- The devil fruit users are weakened by sea stones and generally anything that has to do with sea. Even sea salt has been shown to weaken them since in Thriller bark when salt is thrown into zombie’s mouth, the shadow moving the corpse is detached and the zombie is purified hence nullifying the devil fruit power of Moria. My problem is how can Luffy and other devil fruit users consume food stuffs containing salt and not be weakened? If this is really a plot hole, then it’s arguably the biggest one alongside Pell since enemies could easily use this weakness against/to poison them but not only do they not use it, it also never weakens devil fruit users. I even remember Sanji specifically using it in one of their meals and Luffy complemented him that it tastes better. So what am I missing here? 8- How did Akainu defeat Ace? Lava can’t do any thing to fire. Are lava and fire in One piece different from our world? If yes, source please. 9- This is not a plot hole but something that I don’t understand. What did Shanks use against the sea king in chapter one? I always thougt it was the death glare trope like what Zoro used to do to fodders back then but I hear a lot of people saying it was haki. My questions are: if it was haki why didn’t Shanks use it to knock down those villains back then? I know he said to WB that he offered his hand to the sea king as a bet on the new generation but even before that he could have prevented that incident from happening. He was surprised when that pirate flew with Luffy and not using it could have cost Luffy’s life. Also, if it’s haki, then what type of Haki is it? People say that it is CoC but conqueror haki ‘s power is to knock out enemies and has never been shown to make them run away like it did to that sea king. So is there any part of the manga where it’s specifically said to be haki or is it just a fan made theory? An unknown type of haki? Or a simple death glare? http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PlotHole |
| 7. Kairoseki is a 'special' mineral stone that contains the power of sea to weaken the devil fruit power. and it's not like Salt or Sea Water literally weaken DF user, they're only weakened If the lower half of the body is inside the water. 8. Haki. 9. it's Haki, the same feature that always occur on people that under effect of HH is either they're sweating out of fear or Pass Out or sometime both. |

Yes, with sea water you need to be half immersed but that is not the case with sea stone and salt from the example I mentioned as well as others ( like the fact that df users can only use sea stone weapons if they are not in contact with the part of the weapon that has the sea stone) 8. Haki. ??? 9. it's Haki, the same feature that always occur on people that under effect of HH is either they're sweating out of fear or Pass Out or sometime both. Which type of haki is it then? |
| Armament Haki, the one that able people to touch Logia Type DF user. |

tr1ckst3r said: Not only that but DFs themselves have their own weaknesses and strengths against the others.Armament Haki, the one that able people to touch Logia Type DF user. "As noted by Crocodile, there is no way to tell how Devil Fruit powers will fare when pitted against one other.[11] A Devil Fruit user who normally dominates all other powers can sometimes be brought down by a power considered "weak" in comparison; one such example is the Gomu Gomu no Mi unexpectedly withstanding the Goro Goro no Mi's powers, the Doru Doru no Mi unexpectedly holding back the Doku Doku no Mi's powers and Akainu's Magu Magu no Mi dealing a fatal blow to Ace despite his Mera Mera no Mi due to an order of superiority. Another surprise also came when the Mera Mera no Mi clashed against the Moku Moku no Mi, equalizing with each other, and then later against the Hie Hie no Mi with the same results.

| The "fairies" had the same objective as the Straw Hats so what's the matter? shimolis said: But I bet that Luffy will give the Flare Flare fruit to Rebecca, which will be disappointing This is why people should read the manga, I'm not even going to bother myself replying cuz this is not worth it. This is what I find disappointing. One Piece is still the same One Piece we've always watched. |
| I enjoyed One Piece more before every arc had to be super long. For instance I loved East Blue One Piece and pre Albasta. Of course the long arcs are amazing too, I just think the show needs to fit in a couple smaller arcs here and there, for example the smaller arcs before Alabasta. Time-Skip One Piece is pretteh good. I'm not getting the same emotions and nostalgia feel but its good nonetheless. I do not like Nami, Chopper, and Robin's new character designs. Robin's is incredibly generic, Nami looks like a slut, and Chopper needs to stop getting damn smaller and cuter. Am I the only one who enjoyed Chopper's old fugly look? |

Remember every DF power is unique in its own way depend on how one use it's power. Isn't the power of the sea what weakens devil fruit users? Sea water weakens them because it has this power, same as Karioseki since it's said to have the same "wavelength as the sea". Yes, there are different DF powers and in this case purifying the evil spirit=weakening devil fruit power. You don't expect Franky to say that it will prevent Luffy from stretching when he is talking abuot Moria, do you? I don't see what I'm overanalysing here. Brook didn't say that it works because they are zombies but because the source of the power is the devil fruit. He also said that it works because salt has the power of the sea not because "it's just magic" which is what you want me to believe. You are the one saying it works only on them without backing it up with up with canon evidence. That's pretty baseless. Maybe it's just me.

Like Sasuke being able to summon Manda when he was fucking flat out stated to be out of chakra. I agree with you that it was quite ridiculous but more because of the ridiculously short time Sasuke took to do all that. But that was kind of my point. One piece has just as ridiculous things ( like a FREAKING SKELETON being alive) but it is not absurd due to how the world is designed. That's the trope called "running on nonesenseolum". Now that I think about it, it takes some amount of cleverness to do that since in he made his world in such a way that nonesense makes sense. Props to him for that.

Since the source of their power is a df do you think they will cease action? bigivelfhq said: The thing with the salt is one of two things: - That is Brook conclusion and he his completely wrong.

Not every salt is originated at sea. So only "Sea Salt" works in Moria zombies. They were lucky that Moria kitchen had sea salt. Moria and/or his underlings are stupid for having sea salt in the ship. Nice explanation. I am almost convinced except for three little things: 1- I know the myth about salt and zombies. However, assuming that the world of One piece has the same rules as our world is like assuming that they have the same laws of science which is of course wrong unless otherwise stated by the autor / in the manga. 2- An author can only make a character lie/ be wrong only if it serves a particular purpose. That arc is finished and what Brook said worked so it is true by default. By that logic of a character lying then we could say that Luffy swimming and using his power easily in the sea is not a plot hole because for all that we know the rules of devil fruits is wrong which as I stated above is simply a retcon and bad writing and doesn't prevent the plot hole fom being one if it has happened. 3- Luffy has eaten sea foods that should contain sea salt so that is still a moot point. Anyway, I will take your advice and from now on I will consider this a loophole rather than a plot hole until Dr Vegapunk's explanation if any. OT: Another thing that I like less about Post time skip One piece is the character designs. I prefer their previous ones :/ |

It was kinda out of nowhere. No, it was explained! Haki is the will(Literally, Haki means will in Japanese), and with Armament Haki you hit directly at others "presence/will", even if their body isn't solid or has a strange quality about it, it doesn't matter to armament Haki that is a physical manifestation of Will. Is not that Haki is specifically made to fight against Devil Fruit powers, but in essence it doesn't cares what happens in the "material realm" so that advantage of devil fruits is nullified. Note it isn't only good to use Armament Haki to Logias, but also other types like Paramecia. Luffy is rubber and so attacks do a lot less damage than normally, but with Haki an attack makes the full damage. |

| The skill of Armament Haki is to be able to hurt a DF owner with physical hits ignoring the protection/intangibility brought by their DF. Hitting Logia is the most clear and commented benefit simply because a permanent Paramecia like Luffy's is quite uncommon. |

| End Zionazism |
| People interested about Haki should read this post by one of the guys at AP Forums, it explains a the cultural basis of Haki and how it works in One Piece: Rayleigh explaining what Haki is. It exists within every single human being. "Presence"... "Spirit"... "Aura". It is no different from these basic concepts with which anyone should be familiar with. However, the vast majority of people go their whole lives without ever noticing they possess it... or else try as they might, never succeed in making use of it. To feel no doubt... that is true strength!!! If we took what Rayleigh said and the translation very literally - Haki is ALL "Presence", "Spirit" and "Aura". His explanation mentions that Observation Haki is "Presence" felt to an elevated degree. Sovereign/Conqueror Haki is the user's very "Spirit" manifest, but of course not everyone can do it. From there, I presume we can take that as Armanent Haki being the "Aura" that is something like wearing an invisible suit or armor.. and naturally stronger armor also results in more powerful attacks. In that 4th page, that was explaining Armanent Haki, when Luffy asked Rayleigh, if with it, he can attack Smoker or even Aokiji? - Rayleigh was silent. It might just be me but knowing what I know about Haki, I think he answered in silence to mean "That depends on you". --- This is the best explanation I know of Haki. The credits go to C.A. from Animesuki. This is the third or fourth time I'm quoting/crediting him/her but I'm just amazed how s/he tried to explain Haki and how much it matches with the way Oda portrays it, especially considering s/he wrote this back when the manga was only in Amazon Lily arc and so on. (Full thread here I only copied up to half of page 12) I just copied what was posted but organized it a bit and made it easier to read. I apologize in advanced for the length as well as any repeated statements and explanations. Introduction: Relations and Differences: Rarity: Sakki: Application and Growth: The breath of all things: I sincerely hope this helps your understanding of Haki and/or the series in general, as well as your future discussions and arguments. |

Mikasa said: That's not answering the question of how can it just counter it. Most likely Oda didn't really have a way to creatively handle the situation. You can't demand a show to answer a question it never aimed to answer. The why is the existence of a power that through an advanced state of concentration allows the user to create an armor; an armor that can pass through the DF power and reveal the tangible body of the user. Questioning why does this power exist is the same as questioning the basis of its worldbuilding and context, a treatment that not only this series but any piece of fiction doesn't deserve. |

| That is why I don't watch anime anymore. I really don't like how animation looks, for me the Enies Lobby animation was the best. Anime is now full of fillers (I mean filler situations, filler camrea rolling, filler running there and here) and it is really boring, and there is a lot of not so funny things which weren't in manga. They also alternate some things a bit. Yeah Fishmen arc wasn't the best even in manga but when I was watching it as anime I was awfully bored. So I watch some episodes just because of my favourite seiyuu's now not for the story because the anime is worser and worser. |

-Klad- said: I thing those arcs are a disappointment more than being bad because we were expecting some great things after the TS and for the NW,I agree that those arcs are of the weakest in one piece,but they have some strong points about the future story and the progression of it; for example the vision of Luffy destroying FI,we got to know more about the ancient weapons,Noah and the introduction of two members of Big mom's crew or in PH about Kaido,what happend to Law,a little more insight on Vegapunk and maybe some stuff that I don't remember right now.What you said is really true. Pre-time skip OP was better than now. Many of you might counter this argument with the Dressrosa arc, which is really good and one of the best OP arcs, but you cannot judge the whole New World saga with just one arc. Think about the other two who were completely bad, in my opinion. Fishman arc and Punk hazard were one of the worst arcs in the series. So in the new world we have two bad arcs and one awesome arc. This is the exact reason why I think pre time skip OP is better. But nevertheless I hope that Oda shan't disappoint with the rest of arcs anymore. Anyway theso arcs have a weak story for the arc itself (not much interesting characters,the villains were average and etc.) but not as a whole for one piece. |
