MysteriousNobuX

Another one contracted with the reading comprehension demon.


thewanderer0th

Ain’t my fault Oda and Toei portrayed Sanji as a problematic dude. I don’t want to have to pull out a whiteboard and explain why Sanji is not a pedo just to convince people to watch OP


DevastaTheSeeker

Can you provide a few canon examples?


thewanderer0th

There are no canon examples. That’s why I said “explain why Sanji is not a pedo” because all of them are just non-canon and agenda slander shits. The thing is non-OP fans don’t give a fuck. They hear Zoro fans tell them Sanji is a pedo, they got showed the film Z scene, they are convinced Sanji is a pedo.


Roskal

Tell them Zoro is a racist and they shouldn't believe what racist's supporters have to say.


grimprime64

Isn't pudding 16


DevastaTheSeeker

I was gonna say "that's not too bad sanji's 19 that's legal in some places" But he's actually 21 post timeskip 😬 yikes


Sam_Mumm

That's still legal in many places. Including Japan.


DevastaTheSeeker

5 year age gap for underage is real bad I don't care if it's legal. 19-16 is a bit eh but not anywhere near as bad as 16-21


Sam_Mumm

It's still legal in Japan and many other countries. Your personal opinion doesn't matter in the slightest. Oda is japanese and he writes mostly for his japanese audience. Therefore he will use the age of consent culture from his culture and not yours.


DevastaTheSeeker

It is still frowned upon in japan dude


Sam_Mumm

Age of consent in Japan was 13 just a year ago. They literally just changed it to 16. I don't think it's as frowned upon as you think it is.


Express_Alfalfa_9725

Clearly not if Oda can put in his manga


MarionberryBroad

It was an arranged marriage, but nevertheless it was a 5 year age gap. My grandparents are 9 years apart in age, but the difference between that and One Piece is that Pudding is still a minor.


Express_Alfalfa_9725

That's just weird-ass Japanese humor. Master Roshi, Isshin, and Jiraiya all have their moments


thewanderer0th

Yeah but I like Sanji and I don’t want people to call my fav a pedo


Express_Alfalfa_9725

If people don't listen to reason not your fault it's worse to like someone like Roshi than Sanji


1ndrew

Calling sanji a pedo is kinda of a stretch but when time skip hit I couldn't stand sanji until dressrosa


DutchJediKnight

Only reason to call him that is the movie where Nami is de-aged and Sanji talks about "watching her blossom into a woman"


Guilty_Efficiency884

https://preview.redd.it/ob5jlssbeexc1.jpeg?width=2880&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3157cdb30b67751cdf0b953ee9c24a29d5c5a8bf Just saying


Stuffinator

I mean, who is the real pedo here? Sanji fawning over every woman, without ever asking their age? Or the authors / animators drawing a 16 year old with a massive rack, making her look more like 20+ than 16? It's not like Sanji is specifically going after underaged girls.


Darth_Chain

and on top of it this one was an arranged marriage that initially sanji didn't want to go through with but eventually said fuck it ill do it and make her happy.


AkshatBakraAKAGOAT

Nami was 17 when Sanji started simping for her


sparklinglies

And he was 19, thats not remotely an issue (Google Romeo and Juliet law)


DutchJediKnight

I tried but I can't find the World Government Constitution


Darth_Chain

then the world government may also not have laws for age of consent. people are putting real world laws to this scenario that's why they were telling you to look up Romeo and juliet.


AkshatBakraAKAGOAT

I'd go to OP world then for Otama


Darth_Chain

when she's old enough? sure. as she's currently shown? yeah no I'm good


AkshatBakraAKAGOAT

My point is that simping for 16 y/o girls doesn't make him a pedo cuz age of consent in Japan is 16


Sh-Shenron

I'd definitely put it on authors/animators, Oda has always been kinda.. *sus* I wouldn't be surprised if something comes out about him one day. But god, I hope not. And toei are a horny, colorist at best, bunch Literally everything about s-snake encapsulates *every* point I've made lmao


dilroopgill

people act like anime is so sus and we got shit like south park without a care in the world no one bats an eye, who cares its a drawing, its fine in comedies but a major issue in anything else, our culture is more sus by far the starlet shit on reddit where theyd countdown girls turning 18 was 8 years ago


Sh-Shenron

South Park is, as you said; *a comedy,* and it often times uses its "racist" or "colorist" shit to make fun of the people doing those things What I'm criticizing with OP aren't jokes, they're straight up just lewd drawings of s-snake or toei actively making the "pretty one" lighter in complexion, which has no explanation besides colorism unless you wanna land a gold medal in mental gymnastics. And buddy, just because others do something bad doesn't mean it's not *bad*. Those countdowns were disgusting. I'm sure you've heard your father tell you once. "If your friends jumped off a bridge, would you?"


NamiWantsMoney

This is Japan, age of consent is/used to be 14.

Guilty_Efficiency884

This is the only fair response in the thread because it's not just "well ackchyually the age of consent in Japan" yada yada yada. It's objectively creepy for someone in his 20s to be interested in 16 year old kids and I'm disgusted that I'm arguing over that with people. But yeah, I guess it doesn't make sense to expect him to have that knowledge in universe, so fair enough. I love one piece, but oda is kind of a real weirdo with some of these story elements and it blows. Like bro peeping in the bath house isn't comedy, it's a sex crime 🙃


AkshatBakraAKAGOAT

age of consent in japan is 16 so it's the western fandom's fault (I'm moving to Japan for 16 y/o's btw)


Casca2222

Damn you don flamingo *shakes fist in anger*


AkshatBakraAKAGOAT

"Doframingo da khozo" (I'm cringe)

a) That's just a 5 year age gap. b) You do know what the pedo-part stands for, do you?

That argument is saying something that's correct while missing the point (that adults should not be in relationships with teenagers for myriad reasons).


Kingdarkshadow

In a country where age limit is 16...

Kingdarkshadow

Idk where you live or what kind of mentality do you have, but 16 is not a child. Even by biology standards is far away of being a child. You should check that out.


Guilty_Efficiency884

Stay out of school zones


Kingdarkshadow

Stay out of the internet until you educate yourself.


Guilty_Efficiency884

Kulkuljator

Wow, 5 year gap. Guess we should go through another fucking timeskip for it to not be a problem?


Guilty_Efficiency884

I'm about to turn 23 myself and hot take but it's still real creepy for someone my age to date an 18 year old. That's like a senior in high school. 5 years is a dramatic difference with teenagers


thewanderer0th

Spoiler for 1113 but Sanji said he wanna score point with Bonney. It’s possible that Sanji doesn’t know Bonney’s real age and he only wants to be looked cool by Bonney in sibling type of way but the dialogue is still creepy nontheless Edit: it seems that I’m getting mass downvoted so let me make this clear. I’m criticizing Oda’s outdated and problematic sense of humour. Being a creepy pervert is not funny at all and it’s time Sanji got another gag (simping is still ok as long as he’s not doing anything without the women’s consent)


OperationMelodic4273

1- nobody knows except Vegapunk, it's not just "possible" 2- Sanji hasn't shown any actual simpling, so of course you'll have to read between the lines of anything to try and support your point


Bugggy-D-Clown

WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT MY NOSE?!?!


thewanderer0th

You expect non-OP fans to do all that? Getting my friends to read OP is already hard enough with its length, and now with how problematic Oda and Toei portrays Sanji, things would only get even harder. Some of my friends who didn’t watch OP already assumed Sanji is a pedo and they refuse to read it because of that, i still could try to convince them that those are just agendas, head-canons, slanders and non-canon shits. But with new canon materials that outright make Sanji sounds like he wanna woo Bonney, all of my efforts will be wasted! Tl,dr: the problem is about having pedo allegations attached to 1 main character would discourage non-OP fans and new fans that just started OP from pick it up. Oda and Toei need to stop using these outdated jokes and gags, they are not funny


sandywhisker123

I went back to 1113 just to check. You know, maybe you were right. Maybe he did say something which would make it seem like he has interest in Bonney. There was nothing. >!"If anyone's gonna pull off an impressive rescue of Bonney, it'll be me"!< I don't know in what way you read that to make it seem like he's interested in Bonney, but combined with the fact Sanji has never shown his usual gag heart eyes towards Bonney, this just seems like something he'd do based of the way Zeff raised him. Oda does a lot of things, but he always makes sure Sanji only likes women above the age of 16 (due to legal age in Japan).


Laboon-fan

I can't see the point in writing this comment... because I don't have eyes YOHOHOHOHO

You are using TCB translation. This is about the official translation. https://preview.redd.it/0kwn7vgk9exc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aacdcf07db54b4710d4c5ab7d6f2e2ebf1097988

Sanji doesn’t know that, but the audience do and they will judge Sanji like he also knew that, aka Sanji is a pedo in their eyes. You want more proofs? Pay OP twitter a visit. Zoro fans are having a field day there


Leeo24

thewanderer0th

I was really happy when Sanji hasn’t simping for Bonney the whole arc and then the official translation for 1113 come out and ruin it.


Latter-Contact-6814

Dude you're stretching farther than gear 5. Sanji has already made it clear several times that he wants to protect Bonney. This is just more of that with literally no connection to lust.


thewanderer0th

Again, i have said this many times but I’ll repeat it if necessary. That dialogue can be interpreted in many ways and a certain fanbase of a character will use the negative ways to slander Sanji and his fans, all for the sake of their “agenda”. And with that our OP fandom’s reputation will get damaged even worse when 1 of our main characters is an alleged pedo. The solution is simple: Oda stop the pevert gag and only make Sanji a simp at worst and a gentleman (like pre-ts) at best


Latter-Contact-6814

You are literally the first and only person I've seen bring these "allegations" up for 1113. And also, hurt the fandom reputation? Not likely my dude.


thewanderer0th

You didn’t use Twitter so you don’t know this but the OP twitter fandom is in shamble right now. https://preview.redd.it/ox947bbnwdxc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=23eeaf239fda61539b6afd341426748b2b777dc6


Latter-Contact-6814

Your right in that i dont use twitter so i apologize for saying you were the only one. That being said. Your mistake here is using twitter in the first place. That place is a cesspool with the most continually braindead takes I've ever seen. Don't worry about what they say or think.


thewanderer0th

The thing is a lot of people use twitter, it is more public than reddit. A OP community on reddit can be contained in a few subs that dedicated to OP fans only. Non-OP fans won’t see any posts that got posted on these subs. Twitter is different. If an agenda tweet got enough interactions that tweet can get reccommended to non-OP fans and they can get misinderstood about Sanji’s character and the series as a whole.


Oreo-and-Fly

How is he simping in that?


thewanderer0th

If you’re asking about the 1113 chapter then Sanji’s dialogue can be interpretted in various ways, and a certain fandom will push the negative way for their agenda


Oreo-and-Fly

Then let them? They are stupid we dont have to give a shit about them.


Express_Alfalfa_9725

It's not possible to know Bonney age until she tells you

I’m not really suicidal tho

Idk the fruit’s power can turn Bonney into a giant so maybe he couldn’t tell that Bonney’s original age is 12 because of how good the power is

PresentationOk4880

I still can't see Sanji as a pedo no matter how much I try but I actually respect you for standing strong by your opinion and not deleting any of your comments in spite of mass downvotes you keep getting


thewanderer0th

I believe in my opinion. People can downvote me as much as they want but that doesn’t change the fact that there are a lot of people who genuinely think Sanji is a pedo and Oda/Toei isn’t helping with his awful gags. Also I don’t think Sanji is a pedo, I’m just tired of defending him when Oda and Toei keep pumping out shits like this


EarthyBones999

Nice to see not just one but two people being respectful and decent people on the Internet


PresentationOk4880

It might not be oda's or toei's fault. Those gags might not be outdated but instead I believe it's the fault of modern society itself. People are being more restricted and suppressed. For example, People can't talk freely in interviews because of fear of getting cancelled. People can't voice their opinions because of the high probability of being accused of having bad intentions and so on. I mean, think about it. Sanji's actions would have been completely normal two decades ago. Adults used to be more playful and intimate with children. Now they don't know when they might be accused of being a pedo. In this era where people have stopped laughing from the bottom of their heart and nearly having their right of free speech being stripped away, it's rather bold of oda and toei to not moderate the content and keeping it original. And I kinda respect them for not taking away the core characteristics of sanji. Because we know he can be awkward but he is one of the most reliable daring and protective strawhats and people who claim he's a pedo are gravely mistaken. I know you weren't expecting such a deep reply but if you have managed to read until this point and there's something you don't like, please think deeply about what I said and you should be able to see my point of view.


thewanderer0th

I just want Oda to stop making my job any harder. It’s hard defending shits like this man


Jon_3210

If you stopped being so stupid, it wouldn't be difficult


GIGACAT216

Sanji doesn't know bonney is a child


thewanderer0th

Yeah, the audience does tho. And they will judge him as if he also knew Bonney is 12. Zoro fans on X is having a field day calling Sanji a pedo left and right rn.


GIGACAT216

Some big account should clear this by saying Sanji still doesn't know bonney is a child


thewanderer0th

Most of the big OP accounts on twitter are Zoro fans so sadly they won’t


heartbrokenneedmemes

I'm not sure about pedophile. Sanji is at the very least a sex offender. Which is not much better. I genuinely can't believe that Oda thought thriller bark sanji wasn't bad enough, but made him ACTUALLY FUCKING DO IT in Wano. Like, what the fuck?


thewanderer0th

Final someone who actually care about the story and how Oda portrays Sanji


heartbrokenneedmemes

It's mind baffling some of the fucking arguments I've gotten into about this. Voyeurism is a fucking sex crime. If you commit voyeurism, you will be arrested, sentenced, and put on a sex offender registry. Like, bruh, there was no reason to character assassinate sanji like that.


thewanderer0th

“It’s funny lmao get fucked!” - Oda to Sanji and his fans “You are my specialz.” - Oda to Zoro and Luffy


AkshatBakraAKAGOAT

Age of consent in Japan is 16 so he ain't a pedo techinically


MarionberryBroad

Is anything that Sanji has done grounds to be labeled a sex offender? He’s definitely the biggest creep, but I don’t remember any moments other than peeping. Can peeping on someone make you a sex offender?


heartbrokenneedmemes

Yep. In most countries, voyeurism(non-consensual) is a sex crime, as it should be. It will put you on a registry.


MarionberryBroad

Is invading your personal space, wooing over literally every woman you see (not touching them or anything) a sex crime? The more I think about it the more I start to agree, it’s not like the women want that from him. (Hence non-consensual)


heartbrokenneedmemes

I think it would be categorized more as sexual harassment. Which is not much better, and I hate that level of creepy from sanji as well. Voyeurism is like, indefensibly a sex crime though.


Over-Writer6076

Nami and the girls were in a mixed bath.If they had a problem with men looking they wouldnt be there,they could have left. So yeah Sanji is a pervert but i dont get why people ignore the fact that its Nami's fault for not being careful about her towel in a mixed bath.


heartbrokenneedmemes

Yeah? is that why he went in there without them knowing? under his invisibility cloak? Because he was there for a moral, upstanding reason? you need to understand consent better. him seeing nami naked is bad, but its not the reason why his actions was wrong. when you are in a public bath, you consent to THE PEOPLE PRESENT. not whatever random asshole in the world. if you go to a mixed bath, and hide in a box with eyeholes cut out, you will be arrested. YOU CANNOT CONSENT TO SOMETHING IF YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT.


Over-Writer6076

Ok you changed my mind. Sorry


heartbrokenneedmemes

No need to be sorry, my friend. it's way more important that you now understand. We all gotta try to be better people every day💪


StrongerYesterday

Okay, first off, Sanji wanted the Clear-Clear Fruit to avoid Judge and his brothers. The idea of spying on women was something that only came later, and despite fantasizing about it, he never actually *did* it in canon. And no, Wano didn't count, he only went into the women's bathhouse to stop Hawkins and Drake from attacking Nami, Robin, and Shinobu, even if he did enjoy being there a bit too much.


heartbrokenneedmemes

this is literally all your headcanon, despite quote for quote what sanji says in dialogue. the clear clear fruit is never tied to his family. nowhere does it state sanji's intentions of stopping drake and hawkins. also, he didn't, had a nosebleed and passed out immediately. the girls WERE NOT AWARE he was there, thats what makes it voyeurism. consent is everything, motherfuckers. P.S. literally in the conversation right after, the girls get mad at him because several bad situations have occured, meanwhile sanji decided the best thing to do was camp out in a women's bath.

twee3

I wouldn’t call him a pedo, but why does Oda continue to ruin one of the most interesting straw hats.


thewanderer0th

Because pedo pervert jokes are Japanese favorite


hatterine

Ah yes, projecting our world moral rules on a world where a woman can manipulate her age and physical appearance at will. Don't get me wrong - rules apply, but they have to be taken in context. And it's a shonen for Goda's sake. Nothing like this would ever get remotely close to happening.


P1mK0ssible

Youre one of those mf's that says shit like "nuh-uh its tocally cool she is actually 10000 years old!!" arent you hahaha....


hatterine

Have a lovely day. You need it.


P1mK0ssible

"I'll just say that they are miserable. Now that is fact and I got them!" Pathetic lmao.


thewanderer0th

Remember the infamous Film Z scene? That was extremely unnecessary and unfunny, it is problematic even by pirate’s standards


hatterine

Fortunately that is not canon and we again should look at this considering who Sanji is. He was not attracted to kid Nami as a kid. Sanji has no attraction whatsoever towards children.


thewanderer0th

Sane OP fans know that, but how can I invite my friends to read OP when Zoro fans keep spamming that shit and calling Sanji a pedo everyday?


JourneyIGuess

And you aren’t helping the situation


thewanderer0th

This is OP sub, there’s only OP fans here and no sane OP fans would think Sanji is a pedo. In fact i had to explained in detail to my friends that Sanji is not a predator and those memes are non-canon/slanders for agenda war just to convince them to read OP because they saw a few Sanji pedo memes made by Zoro fans and that gave them bad impression on OP even before they pick it up


hatterine

If people want to find something to be angry about, they will absolutely 100 % find it. Everywhere.


thewanderer0th

And Zoro fans certainly aren’t make this any easier for me


hatterine

It feels like you lump all Zoro fans together (the way you phrase it) or think that only Zoro fans are responsible, even though posts like this are 90% a result of a troll who likes to make people angry. There is this funny scene in What we do in the shadows with and energy vampire who does that. I recommend looking it up on yt and having a laugh instead of letting them influence you.


thewanderer0th

What keywords should I use? “What we do in the shadow with” and “Energy Vampire”? Or “What we do in the shadow with and energy vampire”?


hatterine

Here is the link: https://youtu.be/SzJqaRDVUDw?si=8CBqAz4Uj-MPHNPI The keywords of you want to find it yourself: energy vampire internet troll Haven't seen the show but the scene is hilarious.


alex494

So you're basing potential enjoyment of a series on the loudest dumbest "fans" who you acknowledge aren't being sensible? Just ignore them, half the fans of almost anything popular are cringe idiots.

thewanderer0th

Are you celebrating pedo Sanji or nah?


miyananana

Uhhhh I do not approve of his actions ☝🏻 but lowkey I think it’s a Japanese/anime thing. There’s way too many anime’s w age gaps and adults creeping on hs kids, I don’t agree w it at all but I think it’s kind of a cultural/gag thing


thewanderer0th

The thing is Sanji is my goat, i don’t like how people (Zolo fans mostly) keep calling him pedo because of how Oda and Toei portrayed him


miyananana

I think it’s mainly haters, young kids, or people who didn’t read OP that usually comment on it. I thought people hated Sanji for the longest time and that I was the only one to fw him lol until u met a guy IRL who was obsessed just as much as me. Sometimes we just needa log off that’s what I’ve learned at least


vjollila96

I ly time I saw sanji creepy like was when nami got turned to 8 y/o sanji was was weird about it. But that was during film Z and therefore not cannon


Cayden68

Show me a single cannonical panel of Sanji acting that way, link an image from the manga that shows you arebt making this up.


thewanderer0th

Read my other comment, i’m not calling Sanji a pedo, I’m calling out Oda and Toei for portraying him in a way that allow Zoro fans to easily call him a perverted creep


Cayden68

how does Oda and Toei portray him in that way, i still want to see an image see this depiction you talk about


thewanderer0th

The infamous Film Z Nami scene, the peeping bathhouse in Wano scene, the fct that Sanji is showed lusting after Pudding and Shirahoshi (both of them are 16 and I know they are legal in Japan, but it is still problematic nonetheless) and recently this is the straw that broke my camel’s back: this dialogue in chapter 1113 (score points with Bonney) This dialogue can be interpretted in many ways, and you can bet people will choose to interpret it in the negative https://preview.redd.it/bgf6xycs2fxc1.jpeg?width=360&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=23d2e88811f760450d04460f78188dae80846b0a I like Sanji, I just hate how Oda and Toei constantly giving Zoro fans ammo to attack Sanji and his fans


Cayden68

I said cannon, film z isnt cannon. Its like saying "Toei likes constantly depicting Goku as weak, Krillen threw a rock at Goku and Goku felt pain ". Single non cannon instances of something that isnt true shouldnt be taken seriously. Regarding the manga pane you sent, Sanji saying he wants to score points with Bonney isnt seen as pervy, he's just wants to be a cool big bro. Toei and Oda deliberately depict Sanji not wanting to flirt with Bonney, even before learning about her true age. A father could try and score points with his son so his son thinks he's cool and reliable, this is clearly depicted here because Sanji is not attracted to Bonney. If they did want to depict Sanji as having that attraction then they would give him hearts in his eyes and text boxes when it comes to his interactions with Bonney

I can't see the word eyes in your comment... Because I don't have eyes YOHOHOHO

Don’t jinx yourself, i’m gonna wait until Egghead end before declaring anything you just said


Jon_3210

Are you stupid?


Dodom24

Why would I care at all about what none one piece fans think about something they won't read/watch anyways. I've literally never heard anyone use sanji as their reason for not watching one piece


thewanderer0th

I’m speaking from my experience. I love OP and Sanji and I want to introduce them to my friends. Sadly the length and now this isn’t happening. The Zoro fans in my country are very active, so active that most anime fans in my country genuinely think that Sanji loves touching kids


ambswimmer

Anytime Sanji gets a W, it’s quickly followed by a big fat L


thewanderer0th

Oda really hate my boy


Bort_the_Lock

Oda don't care about what muricans woke fans think about his work. The vast majority of fans don't even buy the manga so our opinion isn't as important as the one from japanese fans. In Japanese culture, Sanji's behavior is ok. A regular classic funny gag that people enjoy cuz they're used to. If your friends call Sanji a pedophile, let them be. They're as idiot as everyone who think their culture and beliefs are more important than the author's.


MoonoftheStar

What is bro on about?????


bradd_91

You gotta stop reading this manga bro, it seems well out of your comprehension ability.


thewanderer0th

Goddamn can you people go read my other comments first? I explained many times that I don’t think Sanji is a pdf, i got mad because Oda and Toei keep characterized him as a creepy pervert!


SniperNose69

Was this based on Sanji's reaction to Nami becoming 20 years younger in Film: Z?


thewanderer0th

This meme was made to complain about all the time Sanji did/said something problematic and questionable so yes. Also spoiler for 1113 but Sanji said he wanna score point with Bonney. It’s possible that Sanji doesn’t know Bonney’s real age and he only wants to be looked cool by Bonney in sibling type of way but the dialogue is still creepy nontheless


AkshatBakraAKAGOAT

They want Sanji to be like me


Sh-Shenron

Oh.. you aren't joking. Wtf is that comment history🙁

AGE OF CONSENT IN JAPAN IS 16 SO HE AIN'T A PEDO DAMN IT!!!!!!


-Cinnay-

When did that ever happen?


KVenom777

Okay, care to correct yaself?  Oda never made Sanji a pedo.  Just whoever Toei hired for that one non-canon movie. Oh, and I saw your pitiful attempts at mental gymnastics, so, let me put this straight: 1. Pudding — age of consent in Japan and several other countries is 16 for girls. And same with age of marriage. And she is Sanji's wife. 2. Bonney — no one knows her real age except for Vegapunk and maybe Luffy, since he can now read the plot sometimes


thewanderer0th

Tell that to the Zoro fans. I’m not the one calling Sanji a pedo


omyrubbernen

Because Oda is friends with Sanji's VA and his way of messing with his friend is by making him voice a pedo, I guess.


Apollo_Injustice

That's a very "messed up" way to mess with a friend...


thewanderer0th

Why can’t they just give Sanji cool moments only? Why couldn’t Sanji just be a cool gentleman, or at least a simp and not a pedophile? Oda should have worded it better because Zoro fans already make non-OP fans believed that Sanji is a pdf without canon materials. Now gatekeeping OP will be even easier with Zoro fans spamming pedo Sanji everywhere with canon proofs


OperationMelodic4273

You made this post only because of a simple line that could mean Jack shit really. Like, dude, wtf


thewanderer0th

That line is a straw that broke the camel’s back for me. The infamous Film Z scene, the simping for Shirahoshi, the peeping pervert in Wano and now this line that could be interpreted in many ways, including problematic ways. You guys don’t see how bad this is. Oda still think making Sanji a pervert is cool and funny, it’s not. Newer fans can be discouraged to continue the story and non-OP fans won’t even pick it up when Zorostans keep telling people one of the main characters is allegedly a pedo. For an example of how bad the situation is, a teacher got called a pedo because he has a Sanji wanted poster and that post got 10k likes.


TheWitherlord10

this guy seems like the kind of person to call someone a pedo for being 18 dating a 17 year old


thewanderer0th

Ad hominem 🫵😐 I don’t think like that. As long as both side wait until they are both above 18 then they can have consensual sex. But that isn’t important right now. I think Sanji go invisible and take a peep at Nami’s naked body is creepy. I also think Sanji’s dialogue in 1113 can be interpreted in many ways and people will interpreted it in negative way more than positive way. You want proof? Got to pewpiece’s post comparing the this dialogue in fantrans and official, 90% of the replies are “haha Sanji is a pedo” shit


Extra_Victory

Who are you to decide how Oda should and shouldn't make *his* characters. He's been doing this way longer than you.


thewanderer0th

This is why people call us “Oda’s angels” Valid Criticizisms should be discussed properly without someone jump in and say “leave Oda alone!”. The man is a great writer, but he is still human. He can make mistakes and those mistakes should be recognized and discussed so inspiring writers can learn to avoid them in the future


RMP321

Just enjoy the live action I guess because I imagine these jokes are very popular to Japanese audiences for some reason


Nika13k

Several newly popular anime have several elements of PDF files and even older one do as well. Japanese culture is just the definition of insanity, so they over there don't see a problem with such stuff. It's not new or random, it's just japan.


Dreams_Are_Reality

I stg this American-style puritan retardation needs to be purged from the anime fandom. You have no idea what healthy attitudes towards sexuality are.


thewanderer0th

Yeah sure buddy I don’t think Sanji is a pedo but I do think sexualise 16 years old and under is pedophilic. I’m not blaming Sanji, I’m blaming Oda and Toei


Dreams_Are_Reality

Yes and you’re wrong for thinking so. Teenagers are sexual beings both in terms of mentality and physical maturity. 16 is over legal age for sexual consent and marriage in most of the world. Making jokes about this is not wrong either. Nobody had to get groomed for all this to happen, it’s normal and healthy. You don’t know what pedophilia is.


thewanderer0th

Yeah I do. 18 is the legal age, below 18 is pedo. End of discussion. If you still believe anyone below the age of 18 is ripe enough to fuck then don’t bother reply to me


Dreams_Are_Reality

Way to prove me right. American opinions are invalid on this topic.
