If you like video games or, even better, like watching someone be bad at them while having fun with friends, consider following my channel! I'm 11 people away from affiliate, and we tend to have a good time!
It doesn't bog itself down by trying to explain or justify stuff like Garp's hat, the snails, the existence of devil fruits/devil fruit users, etc. It just says hey, this is the world this is set in, take it or leave it, and I think that goes a really long way with audiences.
two episodes in and i think netflix one piece's x factor can be summarized by garp showing up in this hat without a single character making a single fucking quip about it
I also think itโs worth pointing out that this isnโt Zoro pushing back against Luffy, itโs him pushing back against Nami. Nami isnโt part of their crew here, she says sheโs just traveling with them until after Arlong Park. So Zoroโs just reiterating that theyโre not a crew.
MIHAWK: Iโm not here to fight, not when youโre half the man you used to be.
SHANKS: I could still take you
THE ENTIRE ONE PIECE FANDOM: IN A FIGHT, RIGHT??
I know Sanjiโs love for women is mostly played as a gag but sometimes I wonder what it must have meant for Robin, whoโd been called a demon her entire life, to finally be called an angel.
this is genuinely so difficult to watch ugh ๐ all of sanji's genuine fucking fear and trauma resurfacing all at once in the worst way possible, and he can only let it show when he's allowed his few moments of privacy. he's always putting on a strong front otherwise and im so sad
Zoro and Sanji constantly bickering since the day they met and it's a mutual rivalry and that's really it until the day they part ways with Ace and Zoro asks "how come when HE flirts with you it's fine, but when I do it you try to kick my head clean off my shoulders?" and Sanji's
SANJI, while cooking: OW.
NAMI: what? What happened?
SANJI: apologies, Nami-swan. Just the shoulder stabbies, nothing serious.
NAMI: the what?
SANJI: shoulder stabbies?
USOPP: thatโs notโ
ZORO: I TOLD YOU THEY WERE REAL
NAMI:
USOPP:
SANJI: โฆโฆโฆโฆโฆIโll talk to chopper
ZORO: Oi, Cook! I need 48 onigiri.
SANJI: what? Why?
ZORO: fuel.
SANJI: ????
ZORO: *sigh* there are 24 muscles in each arm. If I'm gonna make them stronger, I need--
SANJI & ZORO: one for each muscle
SANJI: got it. Comin' right up.
NAMI: ...that makes sense to you?
I'm sorry I keep thinking about Sanji being so petty about this, just following Zoro around reciting dinner specials until Zoro snaps at him to shut up. He stops, blinks, and then continues on, much to Zoro's horror.
At night, he recites them to the whole bunk. Usopp tells him
Imagine Sanji preparing dinner for the straw hats, smiling as he imagines their faces while they eat, how happy they'll look, just going through each of their reactions, and then he gets to Zoro and just sighs bc Zoro never smiles when he eats, he never gives any indication that
ZORO: would you still love me if I were a worm?
SANJI: would YOU still love ME if I were a bath?
ZORO: what kind of answer is that?
SANJI: were we not doing fears?
ZORO:
SANJI:
ZORO: I'M NOT AFRAID OF BATHS
SANJI: THEN WHY THE FUCK WON'T YOU TAKE ONE?
Zoro was standing in that food line, hyping himself up like "ok don't say anything just hand him your plate and give him the smolder." and then Sanji smiled at him and Zoro's brain leaked out his ears.
This 2023, letโs make a concerted effort to always check the date something was posted before talking tot he author about something that happened AFTER they posted, yeah? This goes for fics, too ๐
What if after they find the one piece, Sanji returns to Baratie and finally reads Zeffโs logs about his time on the grand line, and the whole thing is so devoid of emotion, itโs all just dry facts
until
he gets to an entry that mentions this shitty kid who reminded him about
This is the first time I realized those probably arenโt toys, theyโre probably just a trowel and a bucket he found somewhere he r just really wanted to play ๐ญ
Sanji's making lunch one afternoon when Zoro practically throws the door off its hinges. The cook is irritated for only a second before he sees the excited look on Zoro's face and the crumpled wanted poster in his hand. "Did your bounty go up?" He asked, surprised when Zoro shook
Zoro and Sanji are arguing one day about god only knows what and Sanji says something about Zoroโs strength and Zorosnaps back & somehow that turns into โI could pick you up easyโ โno you fucking couldnโtโ and they go back and forth until Zoro justโฆpicks Sanji up. Startled,
I don't think Oda gets enough credit for how silly he makes One Piece like...all the time. Like...fucking Franky was remodeling himself and during this process, realized his hands were too big for some tasks and instead of making his hands smaller her just...made more hands.
You know who ELSE has a cute friendship? Luffy and Robin. Like Robin's intellect vs. her sense of humor make her the crew member who best speaks Luffy. Like everyone trying to get him to remember who Marco was and Robin was like "his head looks like a pineapple" cuz SHE GETS HIM
Great move by the trailer people showing us the lack of curly brow followed immediately by a shirtless Sanji like ok I see your apology and I accept it
Sanji: why'd you make me a cake?
Zeff: because it's your birthday, eggplant
Sanji: ...ok...?
Zeff: haven't you ever had a birthday cake before?
Sanji: ...is it gross?
Zeff: why would it be gross?
Sanji: why would you eat a good cake just cuz I was born?
Not even in a ZoSan tone, I love that basically the first thing Zoro heard Sanji say is โprovoking a cook at sea is basically suicideโ and then went on to do exactly that every day for the rest of his life
This is the most amazing picture bc it captures Luffyโs essence so well. Like look at that face. That is not a face you can trust to be sensible. But it IS a face youโll trust, even if you donโt know why or how you got here. Welcome to the crew, we all kinda got sucked in too.
I have a hc that they crossed paths when Sanji was between Germa and Zeff, and he snuck her food and she never forgot it, but Sanji doesn't recognize her, only she recognizes him. And he is just...her lil guy.
Kind of love the idea of like, Sanji getting turned into a lil kid again bc of a df and he's glued to Luffy's side, he just thinks this bouncy, loud, funny big bro is just the best ever! He constantly plays with Luffy and Chopper and Usopp.
But when he's scared he runs to Zoro.
I like to think an eye opening moment for Sanji is when he and Zoro are arguing, and theyโre just being MEAN with their insults, and at some point Sanji notices a spider on the counter and FREAKS OUT, and their argument screeches to a halt. You can almost see the gears working in
Sanji and Zoro are drinking one night and Sanji's waxing poetic about how romantic it is to receive flowers from someone, and oh how he wishes he could get flowers, just once. Zoro just looks at him, confused, until Sanji's like "what? If you have something to say, say it." And
Obsessed with the idea of Zoro and Sanji having inside jokes. Like they have their normal bickering, but they also have little things they do that they think are hilarious but the rest of the crew just donโt get. Like one time Zoro asked Sanji to pick up something sweet when he
Do you think Zeff ever forgets that Sanji left? Just storms into his room like he usually does, yelling about how the potatoes arenโt gonna peel themselves and itโs only when he sees the untouched bed that he remembers his little duckling has left the nest.
JUDGE: Sanji is a failure
SANJI, meant to take the mantle of Stealth Black: *successfully sneaks off to see his mom* *successfully sneaks into the kitchen* *is constantly just gone, making his father and brothers search for him* *teaches himself how to cook under Judgeโs nose*
Little Sanji at Baratie, nervous as he takes his first order cuz no one's ever really been nice to him so he's stumbling over his words and forgetting things. The guy looks irritated but doesn't say anything and even thanks Sanji when the interaction is over, and Sanji runs back
@CorneliusG14926
If you want a 1:1 recreation of the manga then go read the manga. The point is, this isnโt character assassination. Zoro was very wary of Nami until she officially joined the crew.
Sanji studying Zoro closely on the way to the grand line, taking note of what he seems to like and dislike in an attempt to make that one perfect dish, so good that heโll be forced to admit that he likes it Vs. Zoro undergoing the most intense mental training of his life to
My fave ZoSan dynamic is Zoro antagonizing Sanji in hopes that he'll pay attention to him and Sanji just tearing into him, calling him names, etc. etc. and then when he leaves Zoro being like "I can't believe this" and everyone's like "oh Zoro..." but then he's like "IT WORKED"
Sanji getting drunk and admitting to Zoro that he's just...really cool??? And that kid Sanji often dreamed of being saved by a cool swordsman but "I guess I'm not worth being saved, huh?"
Zoro rolls his eyes but later, when Sanji's passed out on his shoulder & starts having a
Zoro fought against normal people. Sanjiโs brothers had higher than average strength and zero remorse. They didnโt โbullyโ him, they regularly beat him unconscious & had to be physically restrained to stop bc there was nothing to tell them TO stop. Sanji was given very little
ZoSan au where they live together and they're both streamers but Zoro streams horror games and Sanji streams cozy games, so it's a surprise when Zoro hears Sanji scream BLOODY MURDER during one of his streams. He comes running and nearly takes the door off its hinges when he
Unbeknownst to him, after years of eating Sanji's food, Zoro's become a bit of a food snob. It was easy to miss; it's just food, right? Who cares how it tastes, as long as it fuels his endeavors? And really, how hard can it be to make rice balls?
The first sign was during the
that last bite, & Sanji makes a joke about how he must have found something Zoro likes finally, & Zoro nods & SMILES and Sanji serves him on autopilot cuz whoa. Whoa.
Ramen becomes a regular dinner after that, and Sanji tries his best not to blush as he remembers Zoro's smile.
Sanji and Zoro reuniting in Wano and immediately falling right back into calling each other names, antagonizing each other, etc., until Zoro takes the first bite of a Sanji-prepared meal and immediately tears up and sits next to him and drops his head into Sanjiโs lap.
OBSESSED with the idea of Sanji thinking something was going on between Zoro and Hiyori but feeling like he doesn't have a right to be upset bc he left first vs. Zoro just. wanting Sanji to fight for them, even if there's nothing actually happening between him and Hiyori...
The ZoSan reunion after WCI but it's just Zoro hugging Sanji so, so tight and saying "I knew you'd come back" over and over again, and every time he repeats the phrase, Sanji becomes more aware that no, Zoro didn't actually know that, so Sanji hugs him back twice as hard.
This moment is so precious and intimate for me.
They're back to back, checking on each other, match their breathing, and glad to be able to fight together again.
Also, okay, the way They're fighting together and the size difference got me feral as well.
SANJI: nope. but I've lived with him long enough to understand where his brand of logic leads him, and I've found that the descent into madness is a lot smoother if you just let yourself enjoy the ride.
NAMI: so what you're saying is--
SANJI: I gave up on him months ago, yeah
I can't stop thinking about Zoro and Sanji being turned into kids for some reason, and the crew is teasing them like "oh so cuuuute" but then Sanji stands up like "don't worry, I'm still the best cook in the world!" and Robin's face just goes ๐ถ when she hears his voice and she
Third time working with this young powerhouse ๐ช
@skylar_taz
/ knew he was a star the moment I met him on our film VILLAIN- we then shared the stage together in Warheads and now he smashes the Worldwide number 1 Netflix show โOne Pieceโ So Proud ๐๐คฉ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ช Our goodbye Day ๐คฉ๐
After sex, Sanji has his little existential crisis freak out, muttering like โi canโt believe Iโฆand with a MANโฆโ Zoroโs used to it and he knows Sanjiโs just got a lot of stuff going on mentally but heโs in pain and heโs TIRED so he starts getting dressed and just kinda says
I think I've said this before but I adore the idea of Sanji getting drunk in a bar and Zoro just...keeping an eye on him. Like to his face they're still throwing jabs but as soon as Sanji turns away to engage someone else in conversation Zoro's staring daggers at every man with a
I think it's funny that Sanji's such a loser and we as the viewer get to see that so much that sometimes we forget that women in OP actually like Sanji a lot. Like a lot a lot.
Thinking about the straw hats doing an interview and theyโre asked who is the strongest and Sanji tries to say Zoro without SAYING Zoro meanwhile Zoroโs like โme but also when weโre fooling around the cookโll put me in a headlock with his thighs thatโs INSANEโ
*ZoSan sleeps together for the first time*
Sanji: if anyone asks, this never happened
Zoro: I don't even know who you are
Sanji: That's hurtful, you've taken it to far
Zoro: that's a weird thing for a stranger to say
THIS IS A WRITING ACCOUNT NOT A TAZ SKYLER STAN ACCOUNT THIS IS A WRITING ACCOUNT NOT A TAZ SKYLER STAN ACCOUNT THIS IS A WRITING ACCOUNT NOT A TAZ SKYLER STAN ACCOUNT THIS IS A WRITING ACCOUNT NOT A TAZ SKYLER STAN ACCOUNT THIS IS A WRITING ACCOUNT NOT A TAZ SKYLER STAN ACCOUNT
Sanji having a bad mental health day and just asking Zoro what it's like to be desired and Zoro's just like pfft like you don't know. Sanji just turns in on himself Zoro realize he actually doesn't know, & that's genuinely confusing bc he's wanted Sanji since the day he saw him.
he's enjoying the food and as Zoro's nemesis, that's SO satisfying, but as a chef and his friend it's disappointing. How could he have not found SOMETHING that Zoro might like by now?
And then one night, Sanji makes ramen, and Zoro's asking for seconds so fast he's still chewing
Zoro and Sanji arguing like for real and Zoro hits him with โbold words, coming from someone whoโs not even HUMANโ and immediately regrets it, even before he sees the devastated look on Sanjiโs face.
One night, Zoro finally tells the Straw Hats about Kuina, and for a while after, it's quiet. Normally, Zoro's not bothered by silence, but in the wake of laying himself bare it's almost painful. Amidst the deafening nothing his words echo back to him, the admission sounding
@fedyth_
Usopp's behavior is fairly easy to read imo. He saw the decision that the Merry was unfixable as a reflection of his own skills as a shipwright, he saw her decommissioning as his own failure, and he saw himself being thrown away bc if they could throw away their SHIP what was HE?
When Zoro and Sanji decide theyโre ready to be parents, everyone assumes Zoroโs gonna be the strict one, and Zoro agreed. He would be the strict one, so Curly can be the fun one.
Itโs the first thing they ask about when they finally meet their little one a few years later.
I like to imagine that Zoro complained at every meal when he was training with Mihawk simply bc the meals werenโt tailored to his tastes. Every meal was eaten (bc we donโt waste food!) between grumbles of how Sanji would NEVER make him eat THIS.
ZEFF, trying to decide what to get Sanji for his birthday: what do kids like?
PATTY: idk ask Sanji
ZEFF: why would I ask Sanji??
PATTY: โฆbecause heโsโฆa child?
ZEFF, scoffing: only in title. Only in title.
I also love that Sanji has removed the goggles and snorkel from his face while reaching for the fishies, I like to think this is so theyโll see that heโs kind and just wants to admire them ๐ญ
All Blue, and suddenly the entries burst to life. Zeff writes about raising Sanji like an explorer recounting their grandest adventure, and when Sanji gets to the end he can hardly read the note Zeff left him, thanking him for coloring his life in countless shades of blue.
College AU in which Zoro lives with 3 roommates: Ace, Sabo, and Sanji (who he shares a room with). Zoro keeps mostly to himself and gets along well with the brothers, but tends to argue a lot with Sanji, who can't stop nagging him about "keeping his space clean". Zoro's the only
Sanji's been poisoning Zoro.
At first, he wasn't sure if that's what was happening, but after the 8th bathroom trip, he was certain. Sanji'd slipped something in his food. Zoro didn't know why the cook would want him dead but he clearly did. Unfortunately for him, however, Zoro
Sanji interpreting sacrifice as the greatest expression of love and MISinterpreting Zoro's fight with Mihawk as him sacrificing himself for Luffy. Sanji getting drunk one night and confessing to Zoro that he wished someone would love him the way Zoro loves Luffy. Is this anything
I really do love the idea of Zoro and Sanji just picking the other up. Zoro has different holds depending on Sanji's moods; if he's being a brat, Zoro will throw him over his shoulder like a bag of rice. If he's being overly romantic, Zoro will use a bridal carry. If he's sad,
ZORO: scars on the back are a swordsmanโs shame
ZORO: *glances at Sanji*
ZORO: and SCRATCHES on the back are a loverโs blame.
EVERYONE: *looks at Sanji*
SANJI: *bright red* Y-YOU MADE THAT UP THATโS NOT PART OF IT
ROBIN: *checking Zoroโs back* seems true, tho
SANJI: S TOP
All of the straw hats - save for Luffy - see Zoro as this brutish, stoic, bloodthirsty character. Some, like Sanji, are convinced he hates them. Others - Chopper - are a little scared to get close at first. So all of them are surprised when they find themselves being comforted
#AtFirstSightAU
where Sanji's never really sure if Zoro feels the same way towards him, so he doesn't act on anything. When WCI happens, he refuses to admit to himself that he hopes Zoro comes after him but when he sees that he's not amongst the rescue party, he accepts that its
