#Usopp is the main character

When I tell my mother and sister about One Piece, it always has to do with Usopp. I kid you not. If my mother and sister asks a question that is outside my jurisdiction or not Usopp related, I have to think extremely hard and if I don’t know the answer I just say “Duh. I’m telling y’all the Usopp abridged version”, it’s The Usopp Show.
He’s the only Strawhat I talk about. He’s the main character, right???😂
But I’ve already given my twin sister a character to be a fan of. That character is Sanji. My sister likes to wear dressy stuff and cute pantsuits. She likes characters with his type of personality (regardless of his flaws). I even asked her how he can fight in a suit without getting it all dusty, and she was able to come up with a very reasonable answer. And she’s an INFJ (he’s an ENFJ…but still). So, I always say, “hey, if someone ever says they’re a fan of One Piece, you say you are too. And if they ask you who your favorite One Piece character is, tell them it’s Sanji.” I’ve even told her ways to defend him and his flaws. She’s a good student. I’ve trained her well. And she’s annoyed that I talk about OP and Usopp often to the point that she doesn’t listen anymore but she’s my best friend and she still lets me talk about Usopp anyway.
My mother is already biased towards Usopp. So, my job is done there. She likes the whole underdog thing and definitely puts things into perspective in her own motherly way. Especially when it comes to things like Water 7, Yasopp, and the polarizing fan reception Usopp gets. My mother’s memory is hit or miss, but when it came to OP and Usopp, she caught on quickly. She’s even looking forward to Elbaf. Plus, my mother’s military experience brings a realism to Usopp’s situation that I like. She always asks about updates regarding Usopp, and I get into ramble mode. But she listens anyway.
I love my mother and twin sis. ❤️

Sorry I'm gonna be ramping on the differences in the live action once again. This is where they just flopped so hard! It's crazy how they revamped this arc (in an actually cool way), but made Usopp a side character in his own arc!
You can see this stark contrast in the original. First off, Luffy and Zoro don't do ANYTHING and WOULDN'T have ever done anything if not for Usopp first giving his all to warn the village, being reduced to humiliation and tears for it, and STILL wanting to protect them. Usopp inspired them! And during the fight against the Black Cat Pirates, he commanded the situation! The others did as he said and moved after he moved. This example I have pictured here is when HE, despite being injured, still took command and directed the kids and Kaya away from the situation, saving them. Then we all know after this, he defeats Jango, saving Kaya's life and completely foiling Kuro's plan, and while Zoro got Usopp there, he stepped aside and just aided Usopp because he knew and believed that Usopp would win.
Luffy may have been the one to take down the big bad, but Usopp was the hero of this arc. They wouldn't have succeeded, or even begun, without Usopp. Usopp is INCREDIBLE and they screwed up conveying that in the live action!! and I'm mad about it! 😭
#op reread#one piece 35#usopp#one piece#syrup village#this isn't an opla hate account. in fact I overall enjoyed it. but man did they drop the ball on some things#and its a shame that some of those things were main characters 😭#lydian talks

I can't fight this feeling anymore
For (late) @sanusoweek || Day 7: Reunion (posting it late but posting it nevertheless!)
Relationship: Sanji/Usopp
Rating: General Audiences
Tags: Post-Enies Lobby Arc / Sanji-centric / Pining Sanji / Fluff / Reunions / Light Angst / Mutual Pining / Not Actually Unrequited Love / Teen Crush (Tagging as such bc this one gives awkward teenagers so much) / Awkward Crush / Internalized Homophobia / Nosebleed / Religious Conflict (Kind of??? Sanji's POV should be studied)
Words: 5,038
Summary:
Sanji needs to get his shit together. He knows he should. He is being childish. Maybe Sanji is just young. And stupid. And he is a teenager. And being nineteen makes him want and want and want things he should not crave or long for. Like guys. Like Usopp. So it will go away. He tells himself it will, with time. The boiling pot will stop burning and the air will come back to his lungs without needing to have Usopp near. He is back, though. And Sanji can breathe. Just not properly. Never properly when he is near enough to cut his breath away. But he can breathe. He has missed Usopp so much that his body reacts instinctively. Because Usopp is easy to love. Easy to miss. Easy to want. Easy to hold. So, so easy to hold, it seems.
Read on Ao3
More of my works!!
This fanfic was inspired by @the-orion-inexpirience's art for day 7!!
I tried to write a time travel thing but my brain just couldn't work??? Like at all?? And then I saw this masterpiece and the inspiration hit me so hard in the face I had to start writing!!!! So thank you Orion for this <333
#the only reason why there's so much religious and internalized homophobia conflict is bc i get dramatic while writing#but it's not the main plot at all lmao#this is more like a character study on sanji's crush on usopp ig???#i hope you all enjoy it tho!!!!!!!!#i hope orion specifcally enjoys it#i actually loved writing this#they're both so awkward and cute#and sanji is so down bad#one piece#black leg sanji#usopp#sanuso#sanuso week

*stares at desktop background for a minute* holy fuck i could do a sanuso witchcraft works au <- wants to redraw soooo many screenshots
for those unaware, imagine a dude who is constantly a damsel in distress, and terrified a lot of the time but still does what he thinks is right. and a girl who is his stoic and staunch protector, very much down to flirt/get physically affectionate, puts the dude's wellbeing above her own, and is a witch who primarily uses fire and bursts into flames (also they were childhood friends but for some reason dude doesn't remember it). also the dude's got his own sorta fire powers and a lot of people are after him, but dw about that :)
#sanuso#witchcraft works au#wcw au#ive never read the manga but damn would this be a good excuse to do so#obviously honoka and ayaka don't match up one to one with sanuso BUT they are close enough and it's an AU so. yknow. i can fudge the detail#wait yeah literally it's an au- as in 'what if they were the main characters instead' type of deal. why am i stressing about this lmfao#also this means usopp's gets manhandled a LOT which i love to do <3#usopp's still gonna have his slingshot though and he'll be doing his absolute best#it's not gonna work all the time bc. alas. there be witches#anyway enough about that i'm gonna be looking up screenshots to reblog this with later~#cw snake#for future one screenshot in particular i WILL be including

one of the best things about one piece is that the mugiwaras are a crew of main characters who decided to follow the ultimate main character
#like all of them could easily have their own shows and still be amazing#and they all still live like main characters#they all go on side quests with main character type development#they all have their own dreams and goals#but then they all met luffy and every single one of them went#this is the dumbass i will call my captain#no one else#but this one idiot has my respect#which just makes them the best crew#one piece#pirate hunter zoro#cat burglar nami#god usopp#vinsmoke sanji#chopper#nico robin#franky#one piece brook#jimbei#zoro#nami#sanji#usopp#mugiwara crew

I just think they didn't do Sanji's eyebrows cause they couldn't make it work with the hairstyle they wanted, every Sanji actor looks like a cosplayer, which is not a bad thing when it comes to like live performances on stage or at theme parks, but they're SO clearly wearing wigs LMAO they do not look like "real" people that would exist since that hair (wig) is not natural looking at all (and we all know that Sanji would look wacky with both brows showing, that's why he NEVER shows them in the manga), Netflix is clearly going for realism and Sanji has "realistic" hair which is kinda ironic since One Piece and realism don't really go hand in hand but lol Netflix ¯l_(ツ)_l¯
This same goes for Usopp's nose too, but they have literally NO excuse for removing Sanji's little "beard", that shit should've stayed on since it IS one of the most realistic parts of his design lol but again it's fucking Netflix
Also hot(?) take: I think Oda just designed Sanji to have eyebrows like the spiral in narutomaki cause he found it funny, I think he added the Germa stuff to it later (I think he had a lot of Sanji's story planned out from the get go but judging from his comments he decided Sanji would have siblings much later so I think he also just added more meaning to the brows later)
Anon you cannoooot say "it's just unrealistic looking, all the other Sanjis wear obvious wigs" when Nami and Zoro are wearing the most obvious wigs ever. It has nothing to do with realism, Zoro's hair is bright green for god's sake. If a cosplayer on a $15 budget can add the literal key trait of Sanji's design, Netflix could've found a way to do it on a million dollar budget - possibly even with a more natural look!
I'm not going to lie I'm extremely sick of these excuses that everyone is just making up FOR Netflix, like can we just be in agreement it was honestly disappointing and lazy to remove a physical feature a LOT of people recognise Sanji for. A feature that is so easy to add. You can be excited for it while also going "Wow, that kinda sucks!"
Removing a feature of a character that he's literally recognised for in canon universe, that he gets nick names for and pointed at for MULTIPLE times, is just an extremely disappointing move by Netflix - especially considering it is currently story relevant in the original property right now. They just wanted to make him a conventionally attractive man without any of the design choices that actually make him stand out.
Sanji's eyebrows are also literally meant to be weird, if they look uncanny then that's kind of literally the point. It's why he gets made fun of for them.
Once again, this has nothing to do with the actors at all. They do not control their costumes lol.
Also my hot take here is, if you want to make a show with physical realism, why in the world would you EVER pick one piece to adapt for that 😭
#I'm sorry anon i do not mean to be aggressive but they ALL look like cosplayers#Sanji has just been shafted to be a normal guy with Usopp for some reason#please stop making excuses for a million dollar company#i especially could never see oda just happily agreeing to remove the main trait design of a character he clearly loves#i know ppl think this is an over reaction but it's almost like this is a physical attribute of Sanji that Sanji fans have loved for years!#ask

people who actually believe that theory that usopp will die to prove he's a brave warrior of the sea is so ridiculous when oda can't even kill a giant who was in a flashback 22 years ago
#one piece#one piece spoilers#one piece 1066#egghead spoilers#if it wasnt for the fact that ace's fruit respawned i wouldve doubted all this time he was probably still alive even with a hole in his#chest#wano was kinda different but even then the characters that died were like. side ones and not as impactful#and even when they did my reaction was so delayed because i was sitting there like: ok so when does he get back up i know he's gonna#then the graves are shown and i was just like ''ohhhh you were serious. they actually died oops''#theres absolutely no way oda would kill a STRAWHAT#a main character#and for sure not usopp who has the best character development in the entire series lmao#i would say usopp's dream already came true but i think it will for sure when he goes to elbaf#that's been his goal his little garden and i cant wait for him to see it#but yeah this is a happy little pirate anime and as luffy keeps saying#he can't become the pirate king without his whole crew#ok maybe saul isnt a good example here when he's gonna be important/already is important#but i can list so many others: lolas dad; bon clay; that mudman's brother and crew; enel?? literally?? shouldve DROWNED?#kalifa by all means SHOULD be dead at the bottom of the waterfall but i think that was just an oversight by oda#(she was on the upper level of the tower of justice when it fell0#who else. i know theres more#you get it though

I’m sure they’ll going to make changes in the live action but I do hope Sanji still gets to beat that dude almost to death for spilling soup, like that’s hilarious. He almost kills a guy over soup. Me too, man, me too
#every time I see that post about floor soup I think of him and the time he bodied a man for spilling soup#he… heh heh… he full-bodied him#ha. ha ha. ha… okay#anyway I’d love to be him and beat a cop up for destroying food#i love him and I’m not even sure why still#I don’t think I would if I had found OP. like. 3 years ago instead of 10#that’s my disappointing guilty pleasure I guess#having sanji as my all time fave anime character#he was my very first blorbo. so he has a special place in my heart#he’s very cool and very kind I just wish Oda would stop using him as a vessel for unfunny creepy jokes#and usopp. and brook. and kinemon. and momonosuke. and absalom. and cobra. and drake. and-#this is why I don’t hold the characters responsible for the perv jokes anymore. because it’s like 30% of the main characters in a given arc#it’s not any of your faults guys it’s oda. he did this to you

love of one piece aside i do want to smack oda around with a very large stick for several character design choices hes made and continues to make such as [gestures tiredly at usopp]
#there is GENUINELY no excuse for the amount of racist caricatures in OP and the fact that one of them is one of the main cast is awful#you can have a very stylized artstyle without doing that shit and it makes me Very Fucking Mad#and i adore usopp as a character hes this sweet silly artist with a genuinely wonderfully kind soul and hes v brave in the genuine way#where hes scared but he does what he needs to anyway because its the right thing to do#and hes drawn Like That and its AWFUL#bless every op fanartist who fixes that shit

My Fem!Sanusona Ice Skating fic structure is extremely funny to me because it's at least 10k words of Usopp having anxiety, 5k words of Nami shamelessly flirting with Usopp and Sanji in front of literally everyone, 3k words of Sanji being all lovey-dovey to Usopp, and, Idk, like 1k words of them ice skating.
#it is a prompt not a requirement okay for all i know i could mention ice skating and then nobody ice skates fr#but they do ice skate#just- it's just not the main plot bc i don't like ice skating it's scary to me#projecting my fears of ice skating on usopp's anxious ass#also it's somehow usopp character study focused somehow#IT'S SUCH A BASIC PROMPT HOW DID I TURN IT INTO ANGST AND CHARACTER STUDY#the power of poetry babes#one piece#sanuso#bc yknow sanuso week and all#sanusona
