As a 24-year-old female college student, I am always on the lookout for the latest news in the entertainment industry. Recently, my radar picked up on a rather shocking piece of information: Eiichiro Oda, the creator of the popular anime and manga series “One Piece,” is planning to replace Monkey D Luffy as the main protagonist and replace him with Vinsmoke Sanji.
According to rumors, Oda Sensei, as he is often referred to by fans, is making this change to add more excitement and hilarity to the story. Luffy has been the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, but his role will gradually decrease, and Sanji’s will rise. The signs of this shift are becoming apparent as Oda Sensei is creating more plot twists to keep his fans guessing.
In an effort to achieve this, Oda Sensei is directing the story to focus more on Shanks, making the story revolve around him. The information we received from a close source shows that in the next chapter, Sanji will be seen defeating Admiral Kizaru with his famous “Ifrit Jambe” move. Afterward, he will challenge Gorosei Saturn, who has previously defeated Luffy.
It appears that Oda Sensei is trying to make Sanji the new hero of the anime, evident by his plans to make him lead the remaining Armada and escape from the Government’s clutches and Blackbeard’s threats in the coming future.
At this moment in the story, as stated by Basil Hawkins, Luffy and Zoro’s chances of survival are only 19%. Hawkins has miraculously never been wrong about his predictions up to this point. The ultimate fate of these two characters is still unknown, but it seems that Oda Sensei is playing with his readers in an effort to divert attention towards the new protagonist.
Fans have grown to love Luffy as the central character of the series, but the re-branding could spell success for the story. After all, the title of the manga is “One Piece,” not “Luffy’s Adventure.” If this change does occur, Oda Sensei could go down in history as one of the few mangakas who dared to make such a move.
In conclusion, as fans of “One Piece,” we should support Oda Sensei’s decisions, be they bold or unconventional. As the story progresses, we will undoubtedly witness more significant changes, and the characters we once thought we knew so well may take a different turn.
