Unfortunately, I've been dwelling on Garp's character.... fuck that nigga, I'm sorry.
Like I try to give him grace sometimes but like... I just rewatched some of Marineford... he's truly just a govt dog bro.
He was always roaring on about Luffy and Ace becoming marines but it's like... nigga you dropped them off to live with BANDITS. IN THE MOUNTAINS. What in the blue blazing fuck made you think they were going to turn out to be admirals??
And Garp RARELY visited them, and when he did, he was just punching them upside the head. I think it's very telling Garp's son, and both his grandson's turned their backs to the marines. And it's telling that Garp would rather stay with the Marines than Join his boys in making things right.
Garp was at God Valley, he knew what the fuck the WG was doing, and he stayed. Dragon saw that shit and DIPPED. I think Oda does a good job with making Garp this loveable grandpa to hide that fact that he's actually terrible lmfao.
He risked his life for Koby but not his grandkid? Hell, even Kizaru and Kuma spared your grandson's life nigga are we fr. How is everyone rallying behind your grandson's but YOU?
Then you got nerve to get mad seeing Akainu put a hole through Ace... don't get mad now fuck nigga, YOU LET IT HAPPEN.
He sat there and berated his grandson, laughed in his face and put the blame of an entire war on his shoulders like?? Excuse me?? That's the last thing he fucking needs.
Ace was one of the few GOOD pirates, him and Whitebeard both just wanted a family, and they used their strength to keep an ENTIRE race (fishmen) safe from humans/the world government. They genuinely protected people and what, stole some treasure here and there? God forbid.
Your grandson is begging you to kill him and your response is "it's too late we made the King of the Sea mad. War is inevitable"?? NIGGA YOU COULD'VE FREED HIM??? THAT WOULD'VE STOPPED EVERYTHING.
You can make the weak ass case that he was just doing his job, yeah that seems to be the case for every admiral/vice admiral, every time they "do their job" innocent people die, that's not an excuse.
So many people suffered and grieved because Garp couldn't get his mouth off that government schlong.
Dadan, Yamato, Luffy, Sabo, Marco. So many people could've been saved.
Then when he got to the execution block you want to KEEP berating him, calling him a fool, asking why he didn't lead the life you told him to lead. Making him feel even worse...
HOW?? HE WAS BEING RAISED BY BANDITS? Why didn't you bring him into the Marines WITH YOU??
Garp has no right to grieve. He didn't try raising Ace or Luffy, there was absolutely a way for them to be raised on a marine base. Garp didn't even try.
I'm so glad Garp is fucked right now. His loyalty to the government absolutely needs to bite him in the ass. You did all that bootlicking just to end up in chains, put there by someone you trained, someone you basically raised. Shit came full circle.
Just like Kizaru's loyalty bit him in the ass on egghead.
Even Aokiji has suffered since he left the marines. Sengoku suffered when he lost Corazon.
Only fuck nigga we aint see suffer is AKAINU
ODA !!!! PUT AKAINU THROUGH HELLLLLLLLL
