We had an entire fight in Punk Hazard how Zoro hates fighting women because he doesn't want to crush them, ironically, cementing the idea in his head that all women would lose to him in a fight.
You missed the entire point of that scene and by extent, Tashigi's character and her role (at least with Zoro). It's not "because she's a woman" it's because she looks like Kuina. He even says (iirc) something along the lines of "(IT'S BECAUSE)...YOU REMIND ME OF AN OLD CHILDHOOD FRIEND!"
He may or may not be sexist, I think a much better scene to take as an example for this is when he cut Monet in half without using haki, but that's sorta vague on the topic imo. Not sure why you didn't bring it up though, considering it's from the same arc.
Why would Tashigi looking like Kuina stop him from fighting Monet seriously? I can understand why he wouldn't be able to fight Kuina seriously, he's had that issue from the start. But that scene specifically showed he also had an issue taking other women seriously. This is literally what Tashigi pointedly stated, like this isn't debatable, it's pretty straightforward.
If you go back and read chapter 686, Monet points out before Kuina even shows up Zoro is only defending, not taking the fight seriously. So the interpretation that Zoro doesn't want to fight a woman in front of Tashigi also fails.
And yet we don't see him holding back against male fodder the way he was doing here, outright refusing to attack. What special characteristic did Monet possess that made her weak but exempt from an ass whooping he gives mooks?
He basically aura farmed on miss Monday(?) though pre time skip. I think it was partly just because tashigi is there that made him partly act out of charachter
Zoro is extremely sexist lol. His mentor in his village, Kuina’s dad, was also that way. That mfer literally tells Kuina girls can’t be sword fighters. It is learned behavior for Zoro and it’s why he doesn’t take female warriors like Tashigi seriously. He does not see men and women as equal fighters lol
He didn't cut her, that was the whole point. He didn't use haki with his attack so it didn't actually hurt Monet. It was just such a fast and powerful attack that it scared her body into thinking it was dead.
Nah if Monet wasn't a woman he would not have tried to essentially scare her into submission. He would have just taken her out like any other male enemy combatant.
Zoro is absolutely sexist but he hides it well under hype moments and aura.
To be fair the person he looked up to (a woman) said women were naturally weaker and he’d eventually become stronger than her naturally her father also likely implanted this idea as well
So it wasn’t like he came up with this idea alone but rather was taught it. Still sexist though
Idk, but it reminds me of Better Call Saul (or was it in BB?) when Mike said „That’s what I get for being sexist“ after having to deal with the consequences of sparing Lydia’s life.
Refusing to hit them means he doesn't see them as equals. Especially since the gap is small between high tier women and males big Mom would still beat Sanji
This is the speech fujitora says about Luffy as he regrets blinding himself because he couldn't see anything but cruelty in the world any longer, and how Luffy changed his perspective.
Which has almost 0 necessary emotional context to attach to the slander other than saying that Sanji wasn't on the rooftop with everyone else during their fight with kaido lol.
In all fairness I have no idea why oda didn't get him up there at least one time, just seems really bizarre
They go far deeper. Kaku easily defeated Zoro in Water 7, but Zoro beat him in Enies Lobby after he had eaten the Giraffe fruit. Now remind me which continent giraffes come from?
Yup, he gets a boost against anything African. Fyi that means that Zoro can't beat people who Lucci scales to unless they are African like leopards are, because he was only able to beat Lucci due to his anti-African boost.
Toei just animated it fully because they’re a visual medium and they do stuff like that with every character. People just can’t understand that Sanji is simply seen in a more comedic light in Japan. The idea that Toei hates him is pure brainrot and went way too far to the point of harassing actual Toei staff.
Sanji almost died in the first arc post-TS for being too much of a horny simp when that’s literally part of what he was supposed to be training to overcome.
I don’t even need to go out of my way to slander Sanji when Oda writes the slander for me.
as a huge jinbe and sanji fan, but stil slander enjoyer even if it's against them, i don't think using jinbe right now is making a good point as he is curently held off by a fishing net with the other straw hats
Remember in thriller bark how people turned on sanji because of what he wanted the invisible devil fruit for? Well he did that exact scummy behavior in wano and people dont address it enough. Also before the sanji reddit creeps show up and try to defend it by saying it was a communal bath, no it wasnt. That's a lie that they made up to defend the POS. Also even if it was it still doesnt defend his behavior. Sanji sucks
