Rewatching, everyone praying to God to save them... the foreshadowing is something.
I agree in the sense of realism but considering this is an anime about magical pirates.... I try not to worry about it much. Death is used in tragic backstories. I won't say he never kills a character off but he does it so infrequently, it makes an impact
Don't worry people don't die in one piece, until they do, and when you are least expected, and no they don't come back, so yeah, good luck!
You should def read through Enels Cover story, it isnt spoilers or anything at this point, just manga stuff that has kept tabs on him and his journey to the moon lol
Since no one said it short and concise yet yes Eneru's endless vearth was the moon
I don't mind it when important characters live, but honestly I do kinda wish the smaller scale characters would die to add story weight. Like Conis dad is obviously not important overall to the story but would have left a feeling of more consequences. However I'll admit that even knowing oda rarely kills characters, his "fake out" scenes are so damn good that alot of times I mourn anyways lol
It's a very fair criticism that no one died, it kind of makes the stakes seem fake in retrospect. I think Oda must have wanted a happy ending to this arc, because if those people had all died this would be more of a tragedy than a victory worth celebrating around a bonfire. Oda also seems to like keeping characters alive so he can potentially use them at later times as I'm sure you've noticed, which is why I'm ok with it. There are good arguments on both sides for whether they should live or die basically. That being said I have no clue how Conis' Dad lived Eneru's blast. He's a normal ass dude, unlike those powerful Shandian warriors who survived.
his plan was most likely to make them watch him kill them with deathpiea
Hello! 196 to 206 may be considered as a filler but I recommend watching it, since it will answer your other question beside the big shadow clouds and its kind of connected to the main story line. As for 207 it's a filler but the start of that episode is also related to the main story. We don't have the same time stamp but the filler for 207 starts at 8:41 at bilibili!
Re-watching these first few sagas, it's becoming more and more clear to me that there's probably an in-world canonical reason that people don't usually die in this story. One thing that Oda loves to do in his storytelling, is reveal something that re-contextualizes everything that came before it. He's an amazing writer, he obviously knows his shit in that regard. He definitely knows that fake-out deaths in stories are almost universally considered unsatisfying to their audience, but he puts them in anyway. I would bet money that he's going to reveal something that re-contextualizes all of the previous fake-out deaths, but only time will tell whether or not he'll be able to pull it off in a satisfying way.
I will say, the cool thing about the manga is that on the chapter title pages, Oda will tell side stories for old characters in the show. For example, Buggy finding all the pieces to his body after his first encounter with Luffy and how he reunites with his crew so he can go pursue the Straw Hats in Loguetown. Eneru also gets his own side story where he goes to Endless Vearth (the moon) and finds little robots that he accidentally awakens with his powers. After helping them defeat Space Pirates, he actually becomes their leader and he is able to rule over the moon with his little robot minions lol. All of the cover series are really great. I would highly recommend looking into them.
A fun fact that Oda has said, if Nami had Eneru's Devil Fruit, she would be able to use way better than him.
yeah... people don't die in one piece might want to keep that in mind 😭
I will say that up to skypeia a named character usually won't die. Either they'll just be healed or they'll "somehow survive". But it isn't always this way, later the show becomes a bit more willing to show or imply death and darker concepts. Still, there won't be as many character deaths as something liked AoT. Which is fine, but I wish it made a little more sense lol. Like yeah irl people sometimes survive lightning strikes, but Eneru's are way stronger so average people like Conis's dad should not survive.
The handling of death in this show is really bad and you just have to get used to it...
Oda once confirmed that enel's bounty in terms of strength would be around 500 million if he were a pirate on the grandline, what a shame to meet luffy :D
Oda has said that one of his favorite things to draw in One Piece are the party scenes at the end of arcs, and that he thinks those wouldn't be enjoyable if characters had died throughout the arc. Which is unfortunate but makes sense.
Gotta admit, i had to get used to oda not killing people. But then again.. yeah. Let's go G8!!
I love one piece but why is it the only anime we get double episodes would love that with hxh
3 for one piece 2 for hxh would be peak
But if youre a mother in the one piece world gl living past 25
Oda only kills people in flashbacks outside a handful of exceptions its constant guessing game of whose dead and who isn't. I typically call sus til explicitly shown dead. It can def undermines a lot of the sacrifice it took to get that far.
One piece is definitely my favorite anime but I agree with you that people just dont die. It is Oda's one shprt coming as a writer imo. Still, Im very exited for the next arc, its my favorite :)
