japanese dudes reacting to shuggy:

Had a dream I was watching a new One Piece episode and that Corazón was alive. The scene was one of those "sit around and talk" scenes Oda's fond of. Corazón was sat in a chair, talking with some kind of nameless, faceless antagonist.

Buggy was off in the background providing comedic relief.

Corazón mistakenly mixed up Buggy's name with his favorite brand of cigarettes. (Steve Marin. Idk why but I don't want to forget that detail.) Mixing up names was his new quirk since coming back from the dead, in addition to setting himself on fire.

Shanks was also there.

So at this point I comment in the dream that I ship Corabug, one of those impossible crackships that are impossible for obvious logistical reasons. (They never met. Cora-san is dead. Romance is icky in One Piece unless they're a random man and woman in the supporting cast who don't touch much. Stuff of that nature.) And I add that Shanks is there, and that I ship Buggy and Shanks, so since two of my Buggy ships are there, might as well add some of the other characters I ship with Buggy to varying degrees of seriousness, like Alvida (in the universes where I imagine he's bi and likes women), Galdino, and Mihawk.
