So... I've been thinking and I feel Oda is going to kill off Sanji.

It makes me sad but I've realized why this is the reason Sanji has been getting the portrayal that he has been giving (btw I really hope I am wrong) hear me out.

point 1:Back in PT1 he was hailed to be in the same he is 2 strongest people of his crew (luffy and zoro)

point 2: Majority of the fights that Sanji has had in the new world has made has painted him out in a negative light (there are some instances that are situational but still if anything they are poorly explained excuses) which in turn, affected the overall image of powerful he is. This also made the gap between him and zoro/luffy grow even bigger, enough to have the majority of viewers think there is at least a tier between them. Thus creating a separation within the main trio. :) I believe oda has planned this starting back from the first showing of the supernova system.)

He is not getting any resolution in any of the arcs post timeskip. Think about it Everyone is gaining something from their encounters except for sanji. In fishman island arc Sanji had found the all blue within the mermaid land... but didn't do anything about it. In the punk hazard arc he doesn't really shine at all or even an objective tbh. And honestly punk hazard ****ed Sanji up real bad. Hes supposed to he an observation specialist right? Well for what ever reason he couldn't see where the other half of the fire splitter samurai (guy who makes clothes ) through murky water (This part of the chapter ****ed him up)

4. Dressrosa was the worst arc for him aside from the current one. Here he pretty much got owned by doffy. He actually finds a love who would love him, but he doesn't convience her to join him at all. In fact he pretty much forgets about her completely (as shown when he happily moves to pudding). Law has to save him from doffy, which isnt that bad but its also i also noticed how zoro and doffy never interacted. Isnt that weird? He always interacts with the main villians, but why not doffy? I believe it is to further imply the gap between the supernovas and sanji. Then Zoro then I hate to say it pretty much outclasses Sanji in his own specialization while simotainously flexing his. Yes folks I am talking about when zoro cut picas mountain in half, and then what it seems like used observation haki to see exactly where he needed to go to cut down pica.. whereas Sanji couldn't see through murky water.. Every main fighter except for Sanji got highlights in this arc. Luffy (g4 etc.), law (His part in bringing down doffy), zoro (got new strength feat)
This is also contributes to the ever growing gap that is growing within the monster trio.

5. In here is a theory. This is not full thing message me if you want to talk about it some more. I don't think mihawk is a ardament haki beast. I think hes observation. And if you remember Hancock' s description of his eyes in the war I believe it said something about not being able to escape them. How he swings his blade and how he cuts with it. His cuts are so precise (when he tried to cut luffy etc). I believe zoro somehow has made his own eye (the one that is closed) to be similar to this.. meaning zoro had gotten trained in observation (in addition to ardament). Zoro has formed a bond with Sanji. I do believe the two care for each other. Sanji death will show luffy terror once more (referring to are and also when kuma started separating the straw hats.. luffy literally thought they died and it broke parts of him, however he finds out that they are alive. So the damage didn't really sink in. But here shows luffy' s weakness, it shows how powerless he becomes at the thought of losing someone in his crew (think back against kuma and also when ace died he really can't emotionally handle battles, he cracks) Sanji' s death will teach him this. Everyone else is still in development
Zoro: best swordsman
Robin: needed for plot related reasons and also wants to find hidden history. Btw guys robin has had the strongest plot shield since since we first met her.. because as far as we know she is the only one who can read the ponygrphs
Nami: needs to make a map of the world. Embodies the true essence of being a pirate (ehh in provocative way). Luffy' s longest relationship with a crew member. I also think she's gonna write a ledger full of the crews adventure
Ussop: giant island esblaf (can't spell) not finished
Brook: honestly.. brook also big plot armor. For one hes essentially immortal. And his reason for being alive is making up for all the years he spent alone. He litteraly deserves to live, and there's also the fact that he still has to reunite with laboon (a moment I really cannot wait to see makes me tear up just thinking about it lol)
Chopper: plush toy. Honestly was always oda's personal and longest running gag (perhaps aside from buggy) and hes a doctor luffy needs him (law isn't always going to be there.. Oda if you take him away too.. damn.. His fruit is really heavy foreshadowing)
Franky: is hyped up to be a genius. He has so much to explore with his intellect. Also I am pretty sure franky is needed for kuma's resolution (kuma is the only one who beat the straw hats as a whole twice even once saving them. There is def going to be a rematch. Kuma also seemed to be watching over them as well.

Sanji in my personal opinion loves the hardest out of all straw hats. I'll show you why

1. I mean the dudes emotion literally ignites his body.
2.He has saved robin and nami numerous times.
3.He in my opinion fought the hardest in trying to get robin back. Also fought against luffy in the whole usopp situation (yes zoro played role but his role was more about himself and luffy Sanji was thinking about the crew as a whole and what it would do to them if luffy crossed that line)Sure luffy defeated the strongest. But it was sanji who acted to follow them in the train.
4.It was also He literally instantly got to places in the nick of time by hearing a women's tears.
5. Literally gave himself away once nami and chopper were captured no f**ks given to his own life.

How much he cares for women seems to extend for how he cared for his mother. Don't you think it's weird that Sanji never finds true love? He wants to fill a gap In his heart for losing his mother. Oda shows this through Sanji' s numerous attempts at trying to find that special someone, but that special someone does not exist anymore in this world. Which is why he will never find it. Sanji' s love parallel's luffy' s weakness. Sanji I believe that was the glue of the crew. He always is the one to protect them as a whole and I believe that stems from how much he loves and his intelligence.


Lastly I want to talk about the destruction of the monster trio. If jinbe does indeed join the crew. That ****s up the monster trio short and sweet. It's literally gone. It will not matter if he dies but it will change up everything we all know it. Not to mention Oda has single handedly to take away sanji's observation haki specialist and give it to zoro. I hope the bond that zoro and Sanji had will make zoro reflect and change his fighting style to something more agile and cunning obviously mixed with his destruction


I'm pretty beat from writing all of this but thats for most part majority of it.

In conclusion, Sanji is going to be used as a catalyst for luffy' s final transformation. Sanji s death will ensure he will have to go through with the anguish of his worst fears coming to life at the cost of Sanji's own life. Sanji's love that he showed throughout the series has been reflected in all of his actions within the story, he will be the eye opener that will make the straw hats Wok. But this will also show how much they care for one another and what it means to be a family. That's only ever truly learned until you lose something you love and you yearn for it as long as you continue living. I mean look at Sanji he is living proof of this never being able to find true love after it's gone. I really do however hope that oda will give resolution to Sanji (like his char) by showing him reunite with his mother during death. That is my only wish.

Ps: even Sanji's character goal (all blue) stems from his mother

Sanji is as strong as Luffy and Zoro. If he dies, smh, One Piece's quality will go down otc
Everything that oda has done post timeskip save for Sanji jumping out of a bubble and zoro not doing it, has showed otherwise

Idk why but all of this came to my head piece by piece I hope I am wrong about it all
Sanji has not showed anything new aside from the walks, it's stated that he learned so many recipes with Ivankov but idk what would even mean tbh. At first I thought maybe his food will have status effects and maybe how he montabolize it might mix with his burning will but tbh Idk

I think his pirate king crew portrayal will not end that way for him. Like for Rogers crew people recognize the captain (rogers) and the first mat (rayleigh), but they still had that treasure currency trio thing in there group like Gol D (rogers) Silver (Rayleigh) and Scooper (Gaban) so I think their conditions will be the same as their predecessors. But if Gaban is dead then my argument is thrown out the window.

Oda isn't going to kill off Sanji.. at least not in this arc, that's for sure.

Idk about who's going to be alive by the end of One Piece, but most likely all the SH's will be alive.. (if any SH dies it will be Luffy and that's it.)

Sanji is a Strawhat, that alone makes it almost 99% sure he isn't going to die during the course of the series. That pretty much all your arguments are in the very best of cases highly questionable and subjective, and in the very worst of cases either weak or plainly wrong, doesn't make that percentage go down.

To be honest as I see it you personally are simply displeased with how Sanji has been portrayed so far post-time skip and you are trying to find reasons to justify this portrayal. Eventually you came up with the idea that if Sanji dies like a martyr for the sake of his friends, his character will be redeemed and become saint-like. As a result you are seeing omens that foreshadow his death everywhere.

Truthfully though you really need to force yourself to see things the way you are interpreting them as despite that I'm not that positive either about every single thing involving Sanji, that's worlds apart from thinking he's being led to the slaughterhouse for the sake of developing the characters of the other Strawhats.

So even you are finally starting to admit it. Lmao one by one I'm seeing people pull a 180 and accept that Sanji has been shit on the entire post timeskip. That's cool though only stubborn people don't change their views.

I won't lie, Sanji was in my top 5 pre-timeskip but how he went about during Fishman Island and his attitude with Pudding made me throw his ass even below Nami smh.

I feel you guys.. I mean, I still love all of the StrawHats.. but because Oda just had to do this story line the way he did, and how everything has played out so far, I've really lost respect for Sanji's character and the decisions or choices he's been making..

BUT, like I've been saying this whole time, I'm going to remain optimistic and patient, because Oda is one of the best (if not THE best) at redeeming characters and making fans go from not liking a character, to respecting them or loving them in the end..

So I'll just wait to see what Sanji does/says by the end of everything..
