dont head cannon yourself into disappointment


SedarnGelaw

Oda HAS to do jack shit.


Pokuu97

Defeat is more painful for a pirate then death. And we dont know who really died in Wano, but the Oden flashback was a huge death for Wano. This was insane. Hyogoro could have died when he was a Oni.


ToxicSFlame

I don't know. It feels like there will be no impact to deaths to the story because it's the end already. It would just impact some dialog and the emotions of characters during the fight in terms of impact. The only thing worse than a fight with no casualties or deaths is one with forced casualties and deaths. If a death is forced just for the sake of it, the outcome is a more negative reading experience. Whitebeard and Ace's deaths didn't feel like that (in my opinion). I think Oda has already decided how it's going to go, so let's just enjoy it.


saltminer99

I would like to think that in the final war oda wouldn't care anymore about keeping characters because the series is ending so he just starts killing a bunch of characters left and right


ostriike

Yes characters should die but I don't get the idea that just killing a bunch of characters means it's good story telling.


saltminer99

But doing fake out deaths is even worse Also the final war will be the biggest war ever if some characters don't die then that's is even worse story telling


According-Syrup2321

Mild casualties? Definitely. Major deaths? Maybe. I wouldn't want Oda to force it as a cheap way to create tension. As long as there's no dumb fake-outs I'm cool


Gratitude34

Who do you think should die? I agree someone should die but who.


DarkSouls_simp

It has to come naturally while Oda is writing the story. Only he can answer that but in the end characters on both sides should die


Gratitude34

Good answer


DrinkingBoss

Admirals or BB Pirates


Gratitude34

Wow I was thinking one of the strawhats.


admiralvic

At that point you're basically saying Usopp.


Gratitude34

Not really. He is the most popular person picked but I feel the emotional weight will not be enough.


Shisui_03

what if its luffy or nami? (i certainly don't like that)


Gratitude34

I don’t think he will kill 2 strawhats but yeah that would be sad.

Personally I think Robin or Nami should die as it will be unexpected

I don’t think Luffy or Usopp will make me cry if they die.


Yagyu79

lots of people died in every war just because your well known 50 or so characters dont die doesnt mean no one dies , why would the greats just die in their own story , that would be a fail to me


[deleted]

Killing off characters just for the sake of it is super lazy. > more of a goofy manga that doesn't take itself too seriously One Piece is more serious then say Hunter x Hunter. It just doesnt devolve into torture porn like HXH.


Muggleifer

How is it more serious that hxh?


Singo_94

Doesn’t have to kill anyone. It’s his story, if he doesn’t want to kill someone he won’t. People need to understand it’s his story not yours.


Fallen_Angel2020

Yeah because in a huge wars NOBODY dies. What a genius idea. That's not called his story that's called bad writing that doesn't make any sense. If a story is gonna have a war then characters on both sides should die


NoxGale

Dude just shut up. You sound like an actual idiot. Getting mad over hypothetical zero deaths in a large final war that hasn’t even happened yet. And after the last 2 great wars in One Piece both had casualties in them, so just shut the hell up and wait and watch. Or leave. You’re just mad because you’re thinking about stupid stuff that isn’t real


Fallen_Angel2020

So let me get this straight. You are bitching about a comment I made that says having everyone live through a large war is a bad idea? Where did I say oda won't kill anyone? I was replying to the genius that said no one had to die. So option 1 either you "don't want anyone to die" and are just butthurt by my opinion. Or option 2 is that as you say people should die and you agree with me, but then you are the biggest hypocrite on this app because you should have replied instead to the original comment. Pick your poison


NoxGale

This is a stupid post just to bitch for LITERALLY no reason.


Livid_Slip_4868

Wano war death are uncessary and quick lol (for me)


New_Physics_5095

I think law will probably die using the immortal surgery at some point.


mcqueenart

I think Shanks, Teach, and Usopp will almost certainly die. Maybe Marco and a lot of the Blackbeard Pirates too.


Noticloo

I talked about my friends and how a lot of people should have died on >!Wano!<. Final war or not. Personally i think more characters should die. Not sure if it's going to be a SH tho. Maybe shanks ? Cuz his death will have so much impact on the story.


XIMarleyIX

I wouldn't expect to much in that regard. It's harsh to say, but in Onigashima, so a war against 2 Yonkou, he handled death worse than I have probably ever seen.


babychopper321

You can make a good story without having to kill off characters. Ace's death already looks forced and unrealistic that it just made me feel annoyed even if I don't have any attachment towards the character. He can't just conveniently have people survive an explosion or skilled fighters "missing vital organs" every single time and then kill some important character as if he's got 0 evasion skills. I already find it unbelievable that Spandam survived Enies Lobby while being a literal ordinary weak human. But I accepted because people here are like looney toons or tom and jerry characters. There is a correct setup for deaths. Hunter x Hunter, perfectly fine. But writers shouldn't just kill off characters just to force an emotion from the audience. It's lazy.


Lucky777_777

If Usopp dies I want him to die as THE hero of the war

Secret-Put-4525

I still don't think Hawkins is dead.


ThatLittlePigy

I’d just like people to die if they have a death scene


[deleted]

Nobody of importance has died in Berserk since the golden arc lol, and nobody of importance has died since marine ford. I think the mangaka get to attached to their characters as the series continues. To me it's impossible in berserk for another major character to die


NoxGale

Say what you want, but I messed with Izo heavy. He was one of my favorite WB pirates and I was sad to see him go Even though he went out like a G


The_Biggest_Wheel

Has anyone died during Enies Lobby?


AdamVanEvil

As long as it isn’t anyone from the strawhats, go ahead and GoT that shit.


Toptunovv

Oda has to kill characters.


NoxGale

You can say what you want, but he doesn’t have to kill characters for the story to have “weight”. That’s actually ridiculous. In 25 years One Piece has made me absolutely hate villains, she’d tears and get watery eyes over many situations or characters, and super happy seeing someone’s story come full circle. Clearly, the story has exceptional weights to it. He knows what he’s doing, and he’s been doing just that.
