@damnstrawhats don't apologize for rambling that's what these kinds of posts are meant for! And ty you are so right about everything you said. Especially the fact that Oda does actually hit you in the face with the kind of character Ace is and people still don't get it or don't bother to actually think about it. And I don't think you have to analyze every character deeply (it's fiction we are trying to have fun here) but if you are going to form an opinion with confidence and share it you either have to actually think about it a little more or hear out the people who understand that character better/care more and get more out if that character as a result.
Having Ace as a fav is weird because the takes I see on him are either the type I've always wanted on my favs, digging into his character despite the low screentime and sharing fascinating views or the most brain dead, disappointing, shallow takes known to man
There is no in-between
#you are also right about op being treated basically like a fight bracket#you made so many good points in general#also consider sharing that meta post when you feel like it 👀#I'm also curious about your view on Ace's pride since you mentioned that specifically and it's a topic people do NOT agree on#I think people either go: Ace was not prideful at all or his whole issue was his pride#whichis funny because the line: “it's not just about pride” exists#is it partially pride? yes#is it simply just that? no#at least this is how I see it#I do think Ace was a little arrogant when it came to fighting#partially because it was one of the few positive things he saw going on for him#also I love characters with concise and effective screentime ty for pointing that out too#the last thing you said also..#the way he never considered asking Garp to free him#tells you a lot about the kind of relationship Garp built with him#but then you have people saying he should have just ASKED#like he wanted Garp to pass him the salt shaker over the table or sth#it's 5:30 in the morning help#(I did sleep and I'm gonna again)#I was considering deleting this after posting it last night because I felt like the way I just can't shut up about this guy was embarrassing#I'm glad I didn't because of your tags ty haha
