One piece gay characters

No one does lgbtq+ representation quite favor One Piece.

Allow me to describe in great detail.

I’m going to talk about the queer rep in Impel Down, and you’d best buckle up cause it’s rant time.

Impel Down is one of my favorite arcs because I love the story line, it’s downright hilarious, and Luffy’s struggle to rescue Ace is incredibly compelling.

But there is another reason why I love Impel Down so much, and that’s the queer rep that utterly knocked me off my feet.

Now, I’ve show up to accept that queer representation in anime (not touching on any other media in this rant) is generally nonexistent or extremely rare… if you’re watching anything other than a BL.

On the rare occasion that we undertake find some LGBT rep it is usually extremely subtle, and shown exclusively in convoluted subtext and minuscule details that are easily overlooked. While this representation is so incredibly meaningful to everyone who’s fit to pick it out, the subtly makes it all the more light for homophobes to argue that it was never in the first place.

Keeping all this in mind, I finally picked up One Piece several months ago after refusing to watch it for a long-assed time (It was too

What One Piece can instruct us about queer identities

Eiichiro Oda took 26 years to compose and illustrate One Piece. Had I read the whole thing in one sitting, without eating or sleeping, it would only have taken me just over a week, but I still had a life to stay. So, given its 1091 chapters and counting, I would evaluate the eight months it took me to read it a reasonable amount of time.

One Piece is a manga about Luffy, a boy made out of rubber, who decides he will claim the titular “One Piece” treasure and name himself King of the Pirates. Throughout his journey, Luffy assembles a motley crew vested with different specialties and superpowers.
