Since One Piece features underage drinking, why can't Oda

Because underage drinking isn't as stigmatized as drugs in Japan

he could, he's just not interested in doing it...
>but cmon man, weed is the best man

>>137836539
Didn't he get a lot of butthurt for drawing his young heroes getting drunk on high powered sake?
Especially early on when he wasn't such an untouchable monolith.

>>137836651
Yes that doesn't mean that deruga aren't still worse. He git backlash for that he obviously isn't trying to get worse

Are ages in One Piece really defined?

>>137836711
Yeah in SBS and you can guess Luffy's age from the story too.

>>137836489
The possession of cannabis is punished quite severely in Japan. You can get up to 7 years in prison.

That would be a stupid move from Oda.

>>137836977
But I thought pirates were free?

Is this the extant of Oda's artistic integrity?

>>137837058
You've brought up a non-issue no one but you has thought or cared about, then claimed the author has no integrity for not somehow reading your mind and including it. Also depictions of drugs are extremely regulated in Japan, especially in a comic for children. Maybe Oda doesn't have the same weed crusade you do, also maybe not everyone in the world cares either.

>>137837058
he's a mangaka he isn't a pirate. are you confused?

Weed doesn't exist in the one piece universe

Most pirates consumed hallucinogenic herbs who were easily found in tropical seas in addition to being hammered down by alcohol when they had nothing else to do.

He got the alcohol part right, why is he pussying on weed.

>>137837251
He takes his manga very seriously and likes to rub the free meme in our faces whenever he can.

>>137837367
>He takes his manga very seriously and likes to rub the free meme in our faces whenever he can.
that doesn't mean he's a literal pirate/outlaw, or are you too high to understand the difference between fiction and reality?

>>137837367
Because the majority of his readers are kids.

Glorious nippon doesn't need potheads.

>>137837367
Jesus Christ, it's about magic people on ships fighting each other. Oda's not a fucking historian, and it's not like the hallucinogenic herb thing is common knowledge. You act like it's this big thing he's been avoiding, but you are literally the only one who has even thought about it.
Also, if you want him to start being more realistic everyone should have scurvy, pirates should be attacking civilian ships, and there shouldn't be giant fucking monsters that are mind controlled by a mermaid.

are you retarded?

You saying this on a country that gets national attention if a college student gets caught with weed.

>>137839232

thats because weed makes you lazier and nips are workalcoholists?

>>137839297
>What is sativa?

>>137836489
You're expecting this in a country that barely touches weed or other drugs due to intense stigma. At least be fine with smoking tobacco still being acceptable over there. Toriyama smokes three packs a day and I can't think of a manga that didn't have at least one person smoking or mangaka that didn't smoke. Meanwhile its one of the biggest health sins in the west nowadays for some reason.

>>137838755
Act like what?

Luffy did take some shrooms tho.

>>137836489
I'm pretty sure underaged drinking is legal with a guardian's concent, whereas weed is just always illegal.

>show intense violence in manga against women, children and the elderly
>show animal torture and slavery
>glorify stubbornness, short tempers and fighting
>show underage drinking, self mutilation, magic fruits that give power

But oh no don't show smoking weed, the kids won't be able to distinguish between fiction and reality.
Who cares about the rest of the things? Kids will start emulating smoking pot, don't worry about the rest.

>>137839971
Why are you so angry there's no marijuana references in your mangos

>>137836489
>weed bro xd
Kill yourself.

>>137840053
Image not, I'm just pointing out the double standards anon.

What I'm angry about is Trigun not getting a sequel / remake and Akumetsu not getting an anime.

>>137840053
Because retarded potheads worship their stupid drug and can't spend more than a second without spergling about it everywhere. The cancer of society and why living in the US is absolute shit.

>>137836489
The answer is pretty simple.

Oda thinks smoking and drinking is cool as fuck. He doesn't think that about weed.

So what if he does add weed? What would that change or add? Oda doesn't get political in his work, and we already had a plot with illegal substance with that Dance Powder back in Alabasta.
The only thing adding in marijuana would do is piss off some real life soccer moms or editors.

Why did Oda had to make Jack so big?

Shit would have been more original than just big evil ogre turns into big animal.

Now what?

>>137840200
what is he reading?

>>137840376

>>137840310

"Now what", what? Congrats you put some words in my mouth that had nothing to do with my question or stance.

>>137839297
No, you're either lazy or you're not.
You're born that way. Whether you like to admit it or not.

tell me about jack! why does he wear the mask? lotta loyalty for a calamity!

you do realize the time setting One Piece is in. Also none of those things are encouraged.

>>137838755
Well, some people are so boring that the only personality they have is derived from smoking weed.

>>137840200
at least post this in the real thread you niggerface>>137835993

I do wonder if Jack will go back to Zou, i hope not i'd rather not see him get gang raped by the SHs and Minks, plus it would just drag things on Zou.

>>137840524
but this is the real general >>137828584

It tends to mess with your mind like religion so you're compelled to spread it to others for some reason or other.

Where the fuck did Jack learn to read?

>>137840200
At least he's not too beat up after being BTFO by Fujitora. I doubt he's going back to Zou anyway.

>>137840693
Fuji and Sengoku tho.

Even if he got older he still packs a punch.

>>137840693
Depends if it was naval combat or not. If Jack never boarded their ship then it would have been Fujitora's solo doing with his gravity power; if he boarded then likely would have been both of them.

smoke weed

>>137840571
Why would a samurai smoke?

Name one.
You're just a degenerate faggot

>>137841688
Usopp. He's scared all the time, so the crew tells him to chill out so he goes and smokes some buds he collected from the jungle.

>>137841688
Zoro
Kizaru
Moriah
Dofflamingo

Any character that likes to chill sometimes and reduce cancer.

>>137840200

Marines claim they killed him.

>>137841712
>Usopp
Oh no please, he is already quite retarded, don't make him even more retarded.
>Kizaru
While I agree that he sometimes looks so absent-minded that could pass for a stoner, he firmly believes in NG (中立正義). If it's illegal (and it fucking is), he would not use it.
>Doffy
He is a fucking king. Weed doesn't really fit kings
>Zoro, Moriah
meh, nothing to say about these two.

>Kizaru
>mafioso smoking weed

100 rounds of .45ACP should be dumped into your body.

>>137842008
Kizaru doesn't really obey the NG to the letter. See I'm fairly sure he could not blow up half a town with his antics but he seems to be doing it causing considerable property damage. Besides no reason to think the NG cares enough to prohibit it.
>He is a fucking king. Weed doesn't really fit kings
Getting over his ptsd. Also dealing in a number of exotic substances seems to be his thing.
>meh, nothing to say about these two.
Zoro has nothing to do all day and likes to chill. Moriah has ptsd and nothing to do either.

He is bigger jobber than Sanji.

>>137845623
You still don't know what jobber actually means. All the things that Jack did and happened to him even prove that he is a tough as fuck mofo. He actually is the pure defintion of an anti-jobber

>>137836489
Drugs are a taboo subject in Japan. Shit would not fly well with the general audience there.

>>137845833
doesn't shindol make all those doujins about girls becoming drug addicted sluts? those seem to be pretty popular.
