Robin's power was always multiple. First it was ears and arms, but she's been expanding the repetoire the whole story.

I dont think giving her ability some flavor with the devil thing is anything to gat mad over lol. Not like it added power to it.

Her devil horns should’ve been arms tbh, like all of the devil bits should just visibly be body parts, it’d be clean and awesome

I think the devil version is just the armament coated version of her prowers...
I really wanted a bigger opponent, like Nate Marquardt, or King Neptune, or Zeus, or Zeus and Fedor, or Fedor on Zeus's shoulders, and they can both punch but only Zeus can kick.

Spawning hundreds of small body parts and combining them together into one perfectly smooth big body part? Makes perfect sense. Spawning dozens of arms and turning them into functional human-size wings? I see nothing wrong with that. Spawning hundreds of small body parts and combining them together into a slightly non-human body? Garbage writing, Oda should retire.

I think the problem with it is that it doesn't really do anything she couldn't just normally do? Is she more powerful in the devil form or was the only point to continue to throw back at Enel's Lobby?

Well it allowed her to apply a choke hold on an 8 meter tall opponent so there's that.

Yeah but she didn't need horns, fangs and wings to do so, did she? She could have done that with her new full body summon she showed at the start of the chapter.

To clarify I don't mind the new power and am happy that Robin got a fight in which she pulled her weight. But I think like Zambrah I would have preferred her new power to be a bunch of smaller body parts combining, which was how her other powers so far worked. I'd also prefer if she used her power in a way that enables her to do new things and don't see how wings and horns do that, I much prefer her net or hand-wings f.e..
That being said it was mostly shadowed, so there's a chance it's just built that way and Oda wanted to keep us guessing.

King has fire powers? I thought it was just aesthetics, but nope, looks like he's a fire bender. Jesus, how many characters are there with fire powers in Onigashima now?

Marco, Black Maria, Luffy, Franky, Sanji, Kinemon, Kaido, Yamato, Big Mom, and I think also Zoro? Did I miss any? And what was even the point of the Mera Mera again?

Didn't Zoro have every bone in his body broken or something? These "healing methods" sure feel like an asspull. There is no actual tension when our protagonists take grievous wounds, someone will come along and heal that shit up.

I've always felt that these shonen stories should be really careful with the power scaling. Someone with devil fruit powers/physical abilities should start really small and build up very gradually. But since this is not so, we have these random powerups happening every arc. Haven't seen fight tactics in ages either, just heroes outwilling villains.

Anyone else gonna tell this man One Piece has been going on since 1997. How is 24 years not a gradual enough power scale... You could've knocked someone up, raised a child and they could be a full grown adult by now. There's more power creep irl than in One Piece.

I’ve seen some people take issue that we went from Sanji losing to Virgo and luffy struggling with doffy to fighting commanders and kaido in “3 weeks” manga time but whatever we are in arcs way longer now and we’re near end game. It’s a kid’s story at the end of the day. We aren’t going to have another time skip for them to be at Yonko level it’s just going to happen

I mean, it was 100% set up by Raleigh anyways with his "Haki blooms in battle" concept. Oda pre-wrote zenkai boosts into the rules.

Yeah it doesn’t really bother me. There’s no point in trying to rationalize power scaling in these stories. Characters will always be the strength they need to be for the situation

We all know that going in

I mean people do become better at things by doing them. Growing extremely mid fight fairy tail style is the thing that bothers me, not dudes getting stronger while headbutting a lot. Imo OP was always one of the better shonen in that regard.

Eh, what I'm saying is why do things need to escalate to the point of mowing mountains down with single punches. The same goes for tanking absurd amounts of damage and standing up just because you've got dat willpower. How far can you go with that?

I wish intelligence still played a part in fights. I'm rewatching the Arabasta arc just now, several fights are determined due to people using their head instead of just being more badass.

Other than Luffy (who's Kaido interaction kind of is mirroring what happened vs. Crocodile, and I'm not close to the first to point that out) who else is getting power ups? I mean, also haven't you had something "click" while doing a thing as well? Like I distinctly recall a wrestling match where I was close (and lost to the same guy earlier in the season), but losing until the 3rd period and then I realized the way to set him up for a takedown and then it was all over! Also, Luffy did the same vs. Katakuri. He's like a battle genius, learns faster than anyone else in the story.

Alabasta is a masterpiece, and definitely better than anything post-timeskip, but that is such a high standard...

One Piece power levels make no sense and I will cite the example I always cite: crocodile stopping mihawk in his tracks in the middle of the summit war.

Story > power rankings. Every time.
