| there are bigger problems in one piece than this, still, I agree with you, some random characters can die from time to time but they don't even when the odds are 100% against them |
    |
| Yes, there's definitely a problem with fake deaths. There may be some dead characters, but they are rare compared to the amount of characters that should have died. Plot armor in one piece is really bad, but at least there are other positive aspects... just try to accept it without giving it much thought if you want to continue one piece and have a good experience. I know it can be hard |
| I get your point , but after all One Piece is still supposed to be a fun adventure like Anime where you just enjoy the ride and enjoy the journey instead of permanently worrying about who could die . Death gets used here and there but they prob wont kill Main characters , since the uproar and so on would be too much . |

| Maybe the show is intended for teenagers so death isn't common. Also, there are some deaths at the marine ford. |
 |
| Yes there are deaths but compared to them there are many many more people who've escaped situations that would've led to death. Now where the anime is currently at, the situation has slightly changed because of higher stakes, but their deaths haven't been confirmed yet. It's very true that it's noticeable, since after binging the whole lot before, any other anime seemed to kill characters a lot easier than OP. |

| One Piece mostly kills people...but in flashbacks for the most part, the main story barely kills someone and fake deaths are consistent. I suggest watching other shounen like JJK and Demon Slayer, the tension is better and people die without being forced, i mean everyone can die, random or not. One Piece plot armor is similar to other older shounen, its kinda outdated. While Naruto and Dragon Ball choose to kill and revive dead characters, One Piece is similar to Fairy Tail in some aspects, fake deaths and almost every main character has plot armor, One Piece kills random characters sometimes but not so much as Fairy Tail. You can try modern shounen to see the difference. |

| I'm not talking about a main character either. I'm saying that an insignificant pirate character has a bomb set on his neck but after bomb blows up his head is still there and he's still alive. This was a bit too much for me[/quote] Ah . well still i guess bc its supposed to be a "kidsshow" somewhat ? They dont wanna promote death ? idk , never bothered me that much but i can get why some people get annoyed by it |

JJK and Demon Slayer kills people without issue, its a bad habit of One Piece lol |

| Why would you need insignificant characters to die? They aren't insignificant enough to you that you want them to cease existing completely? |
| I was also slightly irritated by this thing. Don't worry. There will be deaths ahead. Not a lot tho. Naruto did a good job in killing off characters. While I don't remember if any character died in Bleach (except villains, of course). |

Yik69 said: Hrybami said: he had bomb on his neck that exploded. I don't want them to cease completely but that was obvious for them to die.Why would you need insignificant characters to die? They aren't insignificant enough to you that you want them to cease existing completely? I'm asking for what reason should they die. What would be the point of killing random insignificant characters other than just shock factor? Also, characters staying alive doesn't mean they can't be badly injured and receive irreversible consequences such as losing an arm, an eye or being arrested and kept in prison... It's not like if everything is fine as long as they can breath. Dying is not the only way to bring tension into a story. It's also a series about super power. An explosion is not an uncommon thing in the world of One Piece and many characters suffered from heavier damage than that. If characters were to die in a realistic way in One Piece, then I don't believe any of them could survive from a fight in One Piece. |
_GinpachiSensei_ said: Maybe the show is intended for teenagers so death isn't common. Also, there are some deaths at the marine ford. That's a fair point but I think if an author don't tend to kill characters then he shouldn't constantly put them in insurvivable situations then not give any reason on how they survived. |
| Broken bones, explosions, millions of volt, they survive everything. Characters in One Piece are just built different and apparently tougher than rock or metal lol Bullets have been the most deadliest so far. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| That character use was only to show the readers and straw hats how vile the celestial dragon are He satisfied his purpose to the story and now what happens to him doesn't impact the story in anyway So I don't see it as negative |
 |
| Maybe you watched the 4kids version. Also, why don't flashbacks count in your view? |
on 
| yeah its kind of a problem oda doesnt even kill insignificant characters sometimes. but i am not into non meaningful deaths. so I dont mind |
  Click for a anime mashup! Still not gone bandwagon u, keep crying. Here u are welcome to CRINGE at my EXISTENCE |
|
| One piece world human bodies are different from rl people they even live 200-300years But I get your problem yes characters don't die in one piece oda said himself there are kids reader too and luffy don't kill people and about insignificant character not dying his purpose was only to show cruelty of celestial dragons like for instance some random pirates have angered luffy and he used gear 3 attack on them logically speaking they will die only top people of one piece world can fight g3 But will never know or just isn't important |

Yik69 said: ohk so property would die. I'm not going to click on spoiler. But people would die. That's fine Yes, not clicking on the spoiler is indeed a wise decision if you're still in sabody. But you can rest assured that more people will die, not only in flashbacks, but also in the present of the story. |

Yik69 said: flashbacks count in my view. Who said that they don't count. I'm saying people aren't dying in the worst case scenario currently. Flashbacks are meant to be emotional(they are very very emotional TBH) and they do there purpose. But people not dying seems a bit unrealistic. I know it's a fiction but still. You did. You said people don't die in the series, mentioned the flashbacks, but then dismissed them. If the entirety of Ohara (sans Robin) is "no one", then Oda would have to kill pretty much the whole cast for it to count. Don't get me wrong, maybe Pell should've died after carrying off a freaking nuke back in Alabasta, for example, but I think people exaggerate a but when they bring up this "problem". I don't believe that One Piece has that much more "plot armor" or characters that "should've died" than other shonen. Hell, even a bloodier series like SnK, has kept characters around even if it seemed they should've died. |
| maybe bc one piece isn't that one anime who commonly have people dies |
Yik69 said: yarwe said: Yeah i know that but still people should die. They are destined to diemaybe bc one piece isn't that one anime who commonly have people dies I was addressing your first post where you say no one dies (or that Oda doesn't kill anyone) , but how do you define "currently"? A dude kills himself during the auction. Either way, it's silly to say this is that much of a problem when you'd have to ignore flashbacks and everyone who has died up until that point. |
| Keep watching. But yeah, fake out deaths annoy me |
 ManWild |
| Ignorance is a bliss. You'll wish it stayed that way |
| I dont think its a problem sinc it dosent affect the story or my enjoyment. But I argree that sometimes it takes bit of the emotional impact, for example the Pell case in Alabasta |
| This is definitely one of the biggest problems I've had with One Piece so far. I just finished reading Dressrosa and the fake outs for deaths has been something of a consistent issue throughout the entire series. I get Oda wants to keep the series relatively light-hearted and not have deaths happen constantly, which is fine but its the fake outs that get me. I won't say who in fear of spoilers for anyone, but the ones that during Alabasta and Impel Down are the ones that bugged me the most. |
