Is he a good protagonist? Is he a good character?

zoro should've been MC

He's still a retard after timeskip

He was, once upon a time.

*hes an even bigger retard after timeskip

its probably what killed timeskip for me. luffys character got butchered and we were left with an incompetent dickhead

timeskipped fucked everyones character up and the manga become a big merchandise machine

I miss old Luffy.

It feels like Oda makes every new character around a single character trait/gag/quirk and then beats that to death with them.

Goku 2.0 he'll become too strong and too got damn stupid and eventually become a threat once the treasure is revealed to be nothing and litterrally every pirate in the world can accept that besides him

>>153185078

He's just another Goku.

>>153185078
He's alright but he's literally just Goku.

Cant like him anymore. Has had too much mainfocus for the last 400 chapters. Luffy only arcs are hell.
Haha look he likes food that is relatable and muh nakama of course

Dunno why I don't like Luffy post timeskip, he seems a bigger retard than before only about muh fun, muh food and muh kick your ass.
The newest example would be Reiju's introduction I know that it was supposed to showcase her power but Puffy looks like retard that would die there if she don't appear.

>>153188808
You would think that after the fiasco of Whitebeard vs Marine and training under Rayleight he'd learn what to do but no Luffy just fucking tried to take a vice admiral head on.
This arc better teaches him something, also being Sanji is suffer.

Just imagine how much better Luffy would have been if he was more like pic related. It's basically Luffy without the retard aspect

god i wish i could pretend timeskip never happened and live in a world where one piece is the greatest anime

i really wanted to believe that oda cared too much about his manga to completely sell out like other shonen authors and milk it with lazy writing and flat one dimensional gimmick characters but going back to the old one piece is probably just a pipe dream now

>>153185078
He was till 2 years passed and he still have the emotional stability of a newborn.

I really need to get my Gamecube fixed, I wanna play this again.

He's just another Monkey King clone so the answer is kinda. You just can't go wrong replicating a legend.

>>153190754
Skies would also make a more enjoyable anime than One Piece.

>>153191009
agree, skies is the (only) reason I decide to watch One Piece, expecting it to be as ADVENTURE (at least I was before Thriller Bark)

>>153185078
he's alright

>>153185078
Not bad.
Not really.
