explain why u ship zosan to someone who doesnt know anything about one piece
is it similar or different to cyphmen?
Starting with the last question: Very different. asdufhafs. Maybe I could stretch it and say that theres teasing in zosan as well, but zosan is less teasing and more like mutual ragebaiting (violence is their love language) (im mostly not joking).
One piece is a shounen so characters usually are a bit exaggerated with emotions, though I think character writting is def one of OPs greatest feats so...
Why ship zosan? Number one reason is: Its fun. They have a very heated rivalry going on and can get on each other's nerve so well it's almost an art. It's funny how they just NEED to one up each other, and call each other silly nicknames, and fight over the dumbest reasons. And I enjoy it bcs they are friends, more than that, they are equals and often have very similar moral positions and push each other to strive for their goals and be better. Its like the right and left side of the brain, the heart and the body, they are called "The wings of the pirate king", they feel great apart and greater together.
And theres sooooo much canon stuff to go off of, not to mention the piles of merch. Hell they got an official magazine just about them I am so fed. I loved cyphmen and loved playing pretend bcs basically they had nothing going in canon so everything was free game, but sometimes having a lot of canon interactions to go off of is kinda awesome UASHUSHSA
They are 2 weirdo guys and they deserve each other <3
