GER never stood a chance against Red Dog Papazuki
 
what you guys thing of the fan letter?
I really liked it! I hope they do another one for the rest of them. I do think the Brook one was a little low on substance, though. The Nami one was an objective improvement over the novel version. A young girl being a inspired by Nami and a fan of the other Straw because of her is way more sympathetic than a dude who doesn't shower and wants to meet Nami as a member of her crew or as a marine for some nasty-ass reasons.
 
Question for everyone in this thread: Who's your favorite Straw Hat?
Mine is Franky. Second favorite is probably Luffy, as plain as that may seem.
Would put Sanji up there but the pervert gags really bog him down imo, he'd be a nearly perfect character if those gags were toned down.

The Sanji gag kinda works in the manga since it can take up a panel or two and be done with, but in anime form it's always worse since it has to get stretched out by nature of the medium, and it just makes him look... yeah.

That dog scene in Egghead was diabolical.

Seems like you've forgotten the mermaid nose bleed thing.
That's the type of stuff I'm referring to. I'm fine with him saying stuff like "Oh you're so hot Stussy let me be your slave my queen", that's weird but it's admittedly a little funny. How ever, him using the Raid Suit to try and stalk women in the bath house is just.. Ugh.

Oh yeah, I definitely erased the Fishman Island stuff from my memory until now lol. Fair enough, that should NEVER be a thing again.

Thankfully I get to experience it all again in modern animation during the Anime hiatus.

1. Jinbe
2. Zoro/Robin
3. Luffy/Franky
 
Is there anything that has a similar vibe to the fan latter? Maybe like film Baron Omatsuri? Or is it a whole new vibe?

For me, Sanji's gag ranges exhale chuckle funny to eh at most. It almost never affects the plot in significant ways and when it does it always has a net-positive result. Even in Fishman Island the gag was hilarious and without it we wouldn't have been introduced to the fishman-human blood transfusion plotline.

Again the gag it self is typically funny/well done, I do not mind it most of the time, but like I said before sometimes it goes too far. Again the bath house thing, and the whole invisibility fruit fiasco.

Same here, and also i didn't like some of his stuff in the last arcs. like giving him the raid suit and then taking it away and giving him a new power up, it was like Oda couldn't decide what kind of power to give Sanji.

The train trio will always be my favorite.

Pre-Timeskip rankings were
Usopp>>Franky>Sanji

Now it's like

Usopp>=Sanji>Franky.

Usopp >> Franky?? That's very bold.
I love Usopp but he's one of my least favorites of the SHP tbh.
Zoro
Luffy
Franky

I actually think him trashing the Raid Suit and deciding to beat Queen with no help from the Germa tech was fire writing. But yeah he definitely should have given it to Usopp or Franky or something.
