Thinking about Usopp during Thriller Bark
Just saw a post about his depression especially with it being right after Enis Lobby and Water 7. His depression was so bad that Perona's ghosts didn't affect him.
I don't blame him. He fought against one of his best friends, got mugged and beaten to a pulp by someone he now considers his friend and crewmate, lost the Merry, the only thing he had from his home, a gift from Kayla, his best friend, and they were almost betrayed by one of their crewmates who had been with them for a long time at that point.
And no one seemed to notice nor care. Yes, they resolved their issues at Water 7. Usopp apologized for attacking Luffy. They made up. But that doesn't take away those feelings.
That feeling of helplessness after all that happened. The feeling that maybe you don't belong in the crew because you had to put on a whole persona just to go help your friend who you thought betrayed you but was actually being forced to do things against her will.
And after all of that, you end up at this mysterious island, get separated from the rest of your crew, meet this weird girl with weird ghost things, and find out that you're so fucked up that the ghosts who who make you feel fucked up have no effect on you. And she's the only one who asks what's up with you.
