A compilation of favorite little Luffy things from OPLA:
- every single time Iñaki Godoy says "I'm Mønke D Luffy! 😃😃😃"
- dude just casually picking his nose during his conversation with Koby.
- putting his head on top of Nami's while she is safe cracking and Nami being annoyed (valid!) but not at all skeeved out because she can tell that there is absolutely nothing sexual about this, Luffy is basically a puppy and has no concept of personal space.
- unironically clapping for the Buggy Circus before he becomes aware of the Horrors.
- the way Iñaki moves around, all bouncy and loose, making you fully believe he is made of rubber even when he isn't stretching.
- distinct varieties of Luffy grin:
😃 - introductory grin, I'm so excited to meet new people who I will love right away!
<:3 - trouble maker grin, pirate shenanigans are afoot.
😈 - your ass is about to be Gum Gum Grass
- his "argument" with Usopp over who is the Captain, which basically consists of him plugging his ears and loudly going "I AM THE CAPTAIN, CAPTAIN ME, ME CAPTAIN" until he wins, which is low-key a microcosm of how he deals with life in general; shouting his dreams into the wind and being so adorable and so insistent (and persistent and resilient) that eventually the world is like "Oh, fine, just give it to him."
- not Luffy directly but the way Zoro goes from "I guess I'll hang out with this funny little weirdo and his delusions of piracy" to "I would both kill and die for you" and then to "I am vocally swearing to give my life to you and follow you to the ends of the earth and beyond, I am yours forever" like bitch! me too!!
- the show letting Iñaki rock his accent and not even bothering to try and explain it. Like "yes, this is Luffy, he talks a little funny. No, nobody on the island where he grew up talks like this, including him when he was a child. No, the people who raised him didn't talk like this either. What of it? You love him. Shut up." And we do! So we do
It's good show!!!
