By my count the Strawhats have foiled no less than three of their GMs planned BBEGs, to the point where he gave up and made the big bad something Luffy's player couldn't just beat to death with his minmaxed bullshit stats.

Robin strikes me as someon who's alway reading at the table but still somehow follows everything that's going on.

Chopper is obviously someone at the tables little sister, and them agreeing to her kooky bullshit character opened the way for Franky and Brook.

Buggy was when he relized that Luffy and Zoro were busted ass combat monsters and he'd have to step it up.

Crocodile was when he relized that nothing he could do would keep Luffy from trying to derail the plot.

Enel was when he relized his villain to survive it would have to not be a single entity, but something big and nebulous that couldn't just be beaten into submission. It's also when he realize how potential for plot there was in Luffy inevitably trying anyway.

Is there a character that could even possibly EVEN TOUCH Madara Uchiha? Let alone defeat him. And I’m not talking about Edo Tensei Uchiha Madara. I’m not talking about Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara either. Hell, I’m not even talking about Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and Rinnegan doujutsus (with the rikodou abilities and being capable of both Amateratsu and Tsukuyomi genjutsu), equipped with his Gunbai, a perfect Susano’o, control of the juubi and Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju’s DNA implanted in him so he has mokuton kekkei genkai and can perform yin yang release ninjutsu while being an expert in kenjutsu and taijutsu.

Since you asked kindly.

I’m also not talking about Kono Yo no Kyūseishu Futarime no Rikudō Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan (which is capable of Enton Amaterasu, Izanagi, Izanami and the Tsyukuyomi Genjutsu), his two original Rinnegan (which grant him Chikushōdō, Shuradō, Tendō, Ningendō, Jigokudō, Gakidō, Gedō, Banshō Ten’in, Chibaku Tensei, Shinra Tensei, Tengai Shinsei and Banbutsu Sōzō) and a third Tomoe Rinnegan on his forehead, capable of using Katon, Fūton, Raiton, Doton, Suiton, Mokuton, Ranton, Inton, Yōton and even Onmyōton Jutsu, equipped with his Gunbai(capable of using Uchihagaeshi) and a Shakujō because he is a master in kenjutsu and taijutsu, a perfect Susano’o (that can use Yasaka no Magatama ), control of both the Juubi and the Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju’s DNA and face implanted on his chest, his four Rinbo Hengoku Clones guarding him and nine Gudōdama floating behind him AFTER he absorbed Senjutsu from the First Hokage, entered Rikudō Senjutsu Mode, cast Mugen Tsukuyomi on everybody and used Shin: Jukai Kōtan so he can use their Chakra while they are under Genjutsu. I’m definitely NOT Talking about sagemode sage of the six paths Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Super Saiyan 4 Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, Rinnegan, Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, and Geass doujutsus, equipped with Shining Trapezohedron while casting Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann as his Susanoo, controlling the Gold Experience Requiem stand, having become the original vampire after Alucard, able to tap into the speedforce, wearing the Kamen Rider Black RX suit and Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju’s DNA implanted in him so he has mokuton kekkei genkai and can perform yin yang release ninjutsu while being an expert in kenjutsu and taijutsu and having eaten Popeye’s spinach.

Everyone in that game is playing their cliches in earnest, except King and Saitama.

Saitama is a newcomer to the group, and his player is fucking the GM.
It's the only explanation. I mean, really, 100 km, 100 pushups, 100 situps every day for a year leads to beating every encounter in a single punch? I was born at night, but not last night.

his facial hair is top tier tho

You do realize Hercule beat Cell, right?
I mean, those other guys from the tournament provided a nice distraction with their flashy lights and smoke machines (their production staff must be well-paid) but it's not like he needed it.
>>
What other characters are there like Sasuke uchiha that are antihero not Heros? Most other edgy loner genius anti heros I feel like are ultimately good, whereas for a large part of naruto sasuke isn't really a hero or villain. He's kind of the ultimate that guy to me. Plus he fits into middle school age psyche perfectly by being a misunderstood genius loner prodigy who's parents are dead.

Actually, amendment: Vegeta was a mass murderer for his entire tenure in DBZ.
He killed millions of aliens as Frieza's employee.
He killed an entire village of Namekians to get at their Dragonball.
He did not give a single fuck about collateral damage when he fought 18 on a crowded highway.
And he killed hundreds of civilians at the tournament just to fuck with Goku.

Sasuke never actually develops as a person throughout the entire series. He makes friends, has adventures, but he spends all of his time trying to get revenge on his brother for killing his family, and when he finally does, he conveniently learns some "truth" that gives him new people to get revenge on. And when he gets the guy responsible for that? Oh, he acts like he's gonna help save the world, until he can get revenge on some helpless leaders. Why couldn't he just fucking bleed out at the end? Sakura is a terrible little bitch and she's still too good for him. Holy fuck.
>>
>>44883834
vegeta is a little different (or maybe i'm misremembering dbz or naruto, its been a while) in that he was a villain who eventually comes back to being a good guy.

sasuke starts out "a good guy" nominally but hes an asshole, and in the end he comes around to helping naruto kill whatever the last guy is, pain? no whatever that guys name is i can't even remember but otherwise hes just wandering around being somewhat bad but kind of just doing what he wants and not interfering in any of the good vs evil parts of the manga/show.

Vegeta was a villain who eventually warmed up to fighting the good fight. Still an asshole, though.
Sasuke helps them beat Kaguya, Naruto gets Kakashi to pardon him, now he's busy doing black-ops missions for Konoha and not meeting his daughter until she's 12 years old, and then leaving again immediately afterwards.

>>44884377
Also, Orochimaru and Kabuto got away with everything.

>>44884296
He came and helped beat the last bad guy, but the moment that was done and everyone else needed to be freed from the Infinite Tsukuyomi he was all like, "Okay, I'm gonna go kill all the Kages. Because reasons." He couldn't live without wanting to kill someone.

Also he got his wife knocked up and then abandoned them for like 13 fucking years.
>>
>>44884413
But they let him go, because he said he was sorry
>>
>>44884438
Didn't he and Naruto have to have a fight first, where they punched eachother's hands so hard their arms blew up?

It's escapism! Can't you see? It's not healthy!

Sasuke's Daughter's Father was never there for her when she was growing up. She will get him back, somehow.
>>
>>44884472
Yep. The powerlevels were literally god-tier at that point. Naruto had Kurama under full control, and Sasuke's Susanoo was basically Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.
Speaking of which, the following was written before that fight was even close to starting. It's hilarious how hopeful this guy was that Kishimoto would stick to his themes.
