Behold that beauty of his...!! He resembles a being that has only been described in the ancient texts!! The Warrior of Liberation, whose foolish antics brought a smile to everyone’s faces — also known as, Nika, the Sun God!!

Dragon giving Luffy to Garp with the assumption that he's going to take care of him until he's ready to meet his son (because it's dangerous to have a child while he starts a fucking revolution, thank you very much) and then Garp just- Leaving Luffy on a village where he spends 24/7 alone waiting for the pirate he now considers his role model (because he doesn't have anybody else and Shanks is the only father figure around and he's just that nice) to come back from his adventures, and only being taken care of by Makino who has no responsibility over Luffy but still takes care of him because otherwise the kid would probably die from starvation, and lucky for him she's a sweetheart. And then he loses Uta, his only friend (with no explanation at all), to then carry the guilt of Shanks losing an arm for him and suddenly his legacy as a pirate. And then he's sent to another place with other people he doesn't know, because Garp thought "oh, yes, wonderful idea to leave my grandson with this depressed kid and some bandits" and Luffy luckily befriends Ace and Sabo because they're good people. Luckily. And luckily, Dadan is a good mom and loves them. But then Sabo fucking dies because nobody with authority was protecting these kids (I wonder who could've done that). And now Luffy has to carry both guilt, a legacy, and the biggest abandonment issues I've ever seen after losing his best friend and his brother when they were just children.

And I'm not saying Garp has made horrible decisions but he has made horrible decisions and Dragon should hit his own dad with Sabo's metal pipe.

luffy is such an interesting character because while his idiot/silly boy act does hide how dangerous he is, it’s not intentional. he IS smart (emotionally intelligent and has good observation skills ie figuring out crocodile’s weakness in one fight). he IS dangerous. and especially before he made a name for himself, he was constantly underestimated. but it’s not a cheap ploy to get peoples guard down. luffy just genuinely finds so much joy in the world around him that he can’t contain himself. he chooses to see the best in things and embrace them until someone or something tries to force him to not to

It's a shame I couldn't color this

Apologies, madam, I didn't see you there. Would you care for an apéritif to start? We have several rare Micqueot vintages in stock. Or perhaps you'd like a glass of Umeshu?

Sabo’s not being serious though he’s just forwarding from Garp (who is not being ironic) . But in all seriousness Sabo would probably say “GOOD MORNINGGGG” and scornfully demean Ace’s lack of energy and the fact that he said good morning at 1:37pm in the afternoon. Anyway, this continued for about 2 years before Ace realised he was not in the family group chat and was not receiving these from Garp anyway. Suddenly everything made sense.

Walking out of the theatre after watching two hours of Dev Patel kick ass, fueled by grief for his mother, the power of trans people in India, and his own righteous fury:

*sobbing* "I forgot movies can be good."

sabo being adopted by the Monkey D. family THREE times is so funny to me with luffy being sure we’re brothers now :))) garp being oh you’re the brother of my grandsons? catch this fist of love!! and dragon being i found this traumatized boy i’d rather raised him than my own son

[muffinlance]

Do you get the impression the live action is treating us like utter morons?? Like I thought that making it aimed at an older audience would open the doors for more subtle story telling, but no, they're just using monologues to tell us eveything! Like in the second episode Katara's like 'oh his power isn't that he's the avatar, it's that he ~connects~ to people'. Girl we're not idiots we can see that!! And the first episode with Aang's goddawful 'I don't want this responsibility' monologue

THIS, YES. The word that keeps coming to mind is definitely "subtlety". The show for literal children? Had it. The remake for adults? Not so much.

lmao a moment of silence for Lucci who thought he was hot sh*t in the face of a Sun God 🙏

I think this is the design I'll stick to when drawing the Destined One, a mix of his 2020 gameplay design and the tiger loin cloth 

Still gauging how I wanna design my OCs outfit, gonna have to sit down again when I have time and do a proper breakdown — I do wanna incorporate modern clothing in her design as a nod that she's from "our" time
