Thoughts & Prayers

But, I’ve just hit chapter 54 I think, and they’ve introduced this secret society/illuminati thing going on, and it instantly took me out it. Secret societies planning coups just really……idk feels out of nowhere unless it’s the whole point of the story.

And, just to add to my frustration, this fic is well beloved. All the notes are raving about it, and there’s not a single comment maybe questioning it, maybe showing a little “hm, that kind pmo”

I read the tags, I did, I knew so I can’t really complain, but the suggestions from other people? That was misleading. The summary? Misleading. That was not happy. There was no happy ending, and if you think that ending is feasible in those circumstances then you’re wrong. And stupid.

You’re trying to tell me, that she got kidnapped, beaten, humiliated, put on display for the whole village, he forced himself on her (making her beg for it btw which was labeled as dub-con), and it’s a happy ending after all that?

She gets constantly degraded, and humiliated by him and the whole village, and it gets a happy ending? She gets broken down, and loses all her fight, but it’s a happy ending? She has no idea if her family is alive, but this man can do all this to her, and get a happy ending?

At one point, she has the chance to let him die, and she saves him?

He goes and gets her family, and maybe just the whole remaining living members of her village for their wedding, and that makes up for everything? That one action? Which is basically just more kidnapping?

Oh, and everyone around her, including her family and friends, are completely okay with all of this. They just arrived after being kidnapped, are immediately seated at a wedding (literally immediately), and everyone is okay with it? Her father is walking her down the aisle to the man who has completely tormented, and broken her. Right….and that’s the happy ending? I’m supposed to believe that she wanted any of that? None of that was happy.

In no moment was there ever a moment that clearly, or even very subtlety, suggested that she began to like this man. And who could? After all that?

The only one who got a happy ending was the terrible, horrible, no good man, and maybe not even him, because it’s stated that he took her for her pride and fire, and now it’s left her. Because of him. So, whole lot of good that was I guess.

This was a horrible experience , honestly, and all I am now is mad, and lacking sleep.

Ep 6

Did I just see someone with a serrated nose???

His earrings are so…..independent

ZORO!!! STONK!!!

ClOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN

Luffy could move the cage this whole time?? And he just let Zoro hurt himself like that?

SHE HAD THE KEY THE WHOLE TIME!!

Oh she stole it

Luffy vs dog is hella funny. Only thing that actually made me chuckle

Furrys?? He’s totally a furry right?

This feels like nintendogs

Luffys face freaks me out

Nami stfu

This is actually a really weak bonding scene between Nami and Luffy

Buggy….he literally beat you too what do you mean?

The mayor has a wack crazy fit. Brown barrel vest suit over a yellow tattersall button up??

Boodle???

I feel the need to preface this one. I would like the 2.5 of you that read these to know that I am not a clown *enthusiast*.

Buggy was hella hyped up to me as a selling point in watching this train wreck, so I forced myself to gag and choke through these episodes until I got to him. Idk why it worked.

- Berries?? Is that their currency?

- Tangerines?

- Nami is a hella player

- Luffy is way too dumb

- I love Buggy

- This animation is awful, but I like it because of nostalgia

- His shoes are ridiculous!

- “why am I in a cage” Luffy are you really that dumb?

- Are those tassels or his hair? There’s only one right answer so you better get it right

-WHAT?! ZORO NO

-Chop chop fruit seems peak ngl

- If I actually end of searching for Fanfiction for this show. Just kill me. The sickness has spread too far.

- Aw cmon you guys. He’s just a funny clown, don’t shoot him with his own buggy ball

Finally, I’ve reached the end. It’s been a long ten years guys, but I finally got to Buggy the Clown. It’s been an ordeal.

My timtum hurts

Gold Roger looks like a mix of Wario and Waluigi

CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN

No clown?

These guy are literally terrifying

STEAL THE SHIP!

Sucks to suck. Think more

How heavy is he to pull the boat that much????

Zoro is so cool

It’s a stupid hat. Let it go

This guys voice sucks

I love the music they use in this

What an ugly beard

That meat looks raw

WHY IS HIS HAND SO BIG???

Makino is so pretty!!

Why’s this guy smiling? They just got dissed

Luffy stfu

This is a really lame backstory

It takes away your ability to swim?? What a random side affect

He’s so cringey as a kid

Why is Waldo the mayor?

Pulling up with some goofy poses. Ew

Wtf is lurch doing being a pirate?

THAT WAS COLD!!!

wtf are these proportions??

If there’s anything that big in the sea, just kill me now. I don’t want to find out

How’d he get all the way out there???

He lost an arm?!? And he’s not even reacting??

You just lost an arm saving this dumb kid? And you’re in “his” debt?? No

Do not snatch that bird

THATS A BIG BIRD

Knowing Luffy??? You’ve know him for a few hours bro

CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN CLOWN

Oh no. That voice doesn’t sound very clown like

Final thoughts are muddled. Didn’t like the lore drop, didn’t like that there was zero clowns. I did like that Nami stole those freaks’ ship. Obviously Luffy is dumb af, and Zoro is walking a tightrope rn between ew and cool. Still not totally sure where Nami stands. Probably somewhere in the middle of the sea.

What collars?

So her mom was just as dumb and insufferable as she was? Great

Why did she shoot them? And why wasn’t it as big of a deal as when they got attacked.

She’s so cringy

What is the logic here???

Maybe if she didn’t suck so bad, she wouldn’t be so lonely

I don’t like these weird little cockroach things. They feel like a bad omen

The lake scene was stupid

Is she wearing a cringey bat wing backpack??

Bugs can communicate??

What did that arrow just turn into?? How can she do that??

Death doesn’t hold much meaning, when they can just come right back

Why are Vs feet traffic cones?

N being concerned for Oozi is kind of cute.

When did Oozi become a zombie???

When did she get wings and a tail??

This is probably a noncanonical scary story being told

How could that not be what you meant N?!? That is the most pressing matter atm!!

Please tell me that fall killed her

Dang

Didn’t V get stabbed in the head?? And did the mean girl get blown up? Why does no one stay dead??

V keeping oozis secret was nice.

Why does she have vampire traits?? I thought she was a zombie

SHUT UP DUMB BOY YOU’RE SO ANNOYING

Luffy. His arms are tied. How can he take his swords

So, is there only one kind of each fruit?? Like. Is Luffy the only one who can stretch like that?? Or are there more?

That is the stupidest sword technique I’ve ever seen. That’s so impractical. There’s no way that could ever work.

STOP TALKING WITH YOUR MOUTH FULL

First time I’ve actually seen his metal jaw move lol

Maybe it was an animation error last ep?? It’s moving when he yaps now

Why was his torso so thick???? He’s as big as a crate

Now he’s huge?!??

Is he always going to fight with three swords? And is he always going to talk while he does??? Can he just be normal?

WTH is this girl doing?? Always on some random side quest i swear

BUGGY?! THE CLOWN??

Ew put the bandana back on. Now

PUT THE BANDANA BACK ON

Entire budget went into that hand pivot

You could literally just change your mind zoro

Gold Roger is Luffys dad isn’t he?

Gay gay gay

Please stfu dumb boy I’m begging

He’s like 9???

This is such a stupid scene. Could’ve just lied for him

Omg. Someone gets this dumb gaybo off my screen

I hate his earrings

They never even encounter nami why did they elude to it in the title??

I forgot my final take away from this episode, but I do know that I did not enjoy this antagonist at all. Was also super disappointed that I didn’t get to see Buggy. I was promised a clown, and I have yet to see him. This is bs. Get. On. It.

Yeah, no Buggy= bad episode.

I like how it doesn’t continue straight from where it left off, it does a little opening expo

I hate oozi so much

Why are Vees hands bubble wands?

I like the mean girls, oozi needs to be bullied a little

N gets his head cut off a lot

The mean girls and Vee teamed up? When did that happen? When did they even have the chance?

Completely changed my mind, I don’t like the Russian anymore solely because of that stupid “as they say in Russia” joke.

This show is so painfully unfunny.

………is this a romance????

Oh! Mean girls for the win!

Never mind; that was not what I thought it would be

Why are they saving V??

I hate oozis catch phrase

The prom fight was actually pretty cool

I can’t tell if I’m missing hella plot points, or if there’s a ton of stuff happening off screen that they’re not explaining

Do they go crazy/become a murder drone by consuming oil??

What the hell just happened? Why did it all suddenly change up? She was trying to kill them, and now she’s apologizing??

New antagonist??

23 SEASONS?!?!? Fml

This op is cool, it sounds a bit like some Nintendo game I don’t remember

Luffys power is hella weird. Why would anyone choose the gumgum fruit?

I thought they were on a raft? Where’d this boat come from

RoRo Noah Zoro?? What kind of name is that?

Dumb boy speakin’ some facts. Being locked up generally means not good

Caption Morgan? lol

Dumb boy has terrible posture

He’s crucified?!

Piccolo!!!!

Wtf is this girl?

Omg she’s so cute. She better be a big character

EW WHO THE HELL IS THIS UGLY BLONDE

WHAT A JERK! They better kill this guy

Omg her hands are huge

This gaybo better die

Yo what is that stance

Those are the dumbest uniforms I’ve ever seen.

That’s disgusting. I can’t believe he ate that

Three weeks without food? He would be dead already

Luffy tweakin

What is that elbow? Lololol

Why does he have a metal jaw, when his actual jaw obviously works just fine?

Why’d he say traitors like that??

His name is nepo? HAHAHAHA

Oh never mind it’s not nepo

So dumb boy still joins the marines after seeing how they actually are?

He’s so gay dude

How the hell can he deflect bullets?????

Confused. Don’t remember the other mirderdrone being with them.

Playing solitaire during ptc was funny

She’s just bored and the other kids suck was funny

They survive off of oil, is this going to be some weird vampire knight thing?

When did this kid in the baseball cap join them?

Why do them have shuriken?

N looks like a girl, and I love that

Why is she super good at improvising and fighting??

Gives off derp vibes. I hate that

Weird red bug thing reminds me of code lyoko. Love that

Russian girl is freaky, hope she becomes a big character

Uzi is certifiably insane

I really did not want to watch this. Like, I hate this more than anything in the world, and I can’t believe I let them badger me into watching it.

Anyway

Ep.1

Why tf is he in a barrel in the sea?

What is this girl doing? Was she an undercover pirate?

I hate this goofy looking kid. Why doesn’t he stand up for himself?

Luffy hella right. That kid is stupid

Me too Luffy, I hate that stupid kid

This captain is brutal, what is her problem??

This kid should die

He sounds like mineta, and Bart Simpson combined.

Marines??? Wtf?

Do I really have to deal with this kid for over 1000 episodes?? Might as well kms

Their mouths are pretty funny

Sound effects are dopey reminds me of the GameCube pokemon game

Luffy = marysue? Op?

Was this animated in mspaint??? Tf Ew

The art style is kind of growing on me: reminds me of being a kid and staying up late to watch a show while it’s snowing heavy outside.

Zoro seems intense.

Kinda cheesy

Animation looks really good, almost so good that it annoys me a little bit.

The characters are too explanation based. Nothing is left to interpretation.

Characters are total tropes.

Definitely something I would’ve loved and made my whole personality in middle school.

The hand thing was weird

Her dad just leaves her!!??

If the muderdrones have such an op move, why don’t they use it first thing?

Nothing is serious. Everything is made into a joke, or had some sort of comedic kick.

Crazy wack way to end the first ep. Didn’t really make sense, felt out of nowhere
