Gay one piece character
No one does queer visibility quite like One Piece.
Allow me to elaborate in great detail.
I’m going to talk about the queer rep in Impel Down, and you’d best buckle up generate it’s rant time.
Impel Down is one of my favorite arcs because I love the story line, it’s downright hilarious, and Luffy’s struggle to rescue Ace is incredibly compelling.
But there is another reason why I passion Impel Down so much, and that’s the gender non-conforming rep that utterly knocked me off my feet.
Now, I’ve come to accept that queer voice in anime (not touching on any other media in this rant) is generally nonexistent or extremely rare… if you’re watching anything other than a BL.
On the rare occasion that we do locate some LGBT rep it is usually extremely subtle, and shown exclusively in convoluted subtext and minuscule details that are easily overlooked. While this advocacy is so incredibly meaningful to everyone who’s qualified to pick it out, the subtly makes it all the more straightforward for homophobes to dispute that it was never in the first place.
Keeping all this in brain, I finally picked up One Piece several months ago after refusing to watch it for a long-assed time (It was too
There are various studies and statistics done on the subject. While the results vary, especially when it reflects distinct regions or when the definitions vary (for example, some only include people that are 100% queer, while others include people with homosexual inclination to varying degree), they vary in the order of around 3% to 20% from what I've seen. No statistic or analyze that I know of has produced a outcome close to 50% or the majority.alakazam^ wrote:Not really sure why "minority" is a valid argument when I'm adorable sure no one can prove homosexuality is one, but whatever.
I really doubt that. Tenshinhan's next to relationship with Chaoztu, his seclusion and the reality that him and Lunch never go anywhere, would make people find that not so surprising at all. I've already interpret jokes/speculation among the fanbase about that, so...alakazam^ wrote:I'd wager that if Toriyama pulled a Dumbledore on us, you'd be among those complaining there was nothing pointing to it.
But Dragon Ball doesn't really emphasis at all in matters of relationships and it doesn't develop it at all. It only shows the bare minimum to give a sense of time going by and people having children
What One Piece can teach us about lgbtq+ identities
Eiichiro Oda took 26 years to write and illustrate One Piece. Had I read the whole thing in one sitting, without eating or sleeping, it would only contain taken me just over a week, but I still had a being to live. So, given its 1091 chapters and counting, I would contemplate the eight months it took me to peruse it a reasonable amount of time.
One Piece is a manga about Luffy, a boy made out of rubber, who decides he will claim the titular “One Piece” treasure and name himself King of the Pirates. Throughout his journey, Luffy assembles a motley crew vested with different specialties and superpowers. One Piece’s unreal universe is rich with its own geography, cultures, lore, and magic, and yet, what struck me the most was a message that Oda had not intended to convey: lessons on the complexity of trans identity and the position of homosexual identities in society.
There has been much debate on the prevalence of queerness in One Piece. While some think the voice is meaningful, others watch aspects of it as highly problematic. Furthermore, many of these analyses arrive from a Western perspective that the author—a hete
