Why Buggy Can't Ever Be Defeated

[@haydenpetersen7066]

Buggy achieved a feat no other character has so far, he made Dragon do something

[@Kaisona2017]

A feat he shares with Smoker.

[@kingaki1116]

OHHHH NO WAY THATS INSANE DRAGOB DID SOMETHING?!

[@GodspeedNRGgaming]

He's also one of the only villian who has damage luffy hat in the cannon storyline(excluding the movies)

[@RunieRuse]

It’s always felt significant to me that when Buggy talks about how ‘brightly’ Shanks shone, the panel doesn’t show a memory of Shanks doing anything cool. He’s not fighting, he’s not exhibiting any skills or prowess- he’s being patted on the head by Roger. I think Buggy’s real dream was inheriting Roger’s will. He perceives that Shanks inherits it, because of the straw hat and the way Roger treats him. Buggy can’t achieve his dream because it’s been given to Shanks (or so he thinks.) That’s why he is willing to follow and support Shanks- because it’s through that inherited will that Roger will survive past death. When Shanks refuses to go after the One Piece, it’s not just the sting of him throwing away what Buggy wanted most and didn’t feel capable of- it’s the sting of seeing Roger’s will thrown away. The way he speaks during this scene points to it too. He doesn’t say ‘Didn’t you say you would’ to Shanks, he says ‘Didn’t you tell Roger you would.’ It’s not so much about Shanks himself as it is about Buggy’s love for Roger. I think that’s why it hurt Buggy so deeply, even though I doubt he understands this consciously.

[@Ray_D_Tutto]

This further hits when you realize how much Buggy copies Roger. Doing things in the flashiest way possible, calling Rayleigh/Mr 3 partner, even his look. Chin growth, cravat, bandanna, tricorn hat, sash & pirate captain's coat (fair enough most people wear a sash and coat but still.

The fact that Buggy's healthier and happier relationship to his crew is because of a run-in with Gaimon is one of the top 10 greatest thing I've ever learned about this series

[@ActualHumanMigz]

Also Luffy growing from fighting fair to fighring dirty is a neat little detail I hadn't noticed. Luffy was so naive but after learning that pirates don't necessarily all have a code of conduct in battle, he's accepted that as a trutth and lesson learned for years to come.

[@Jayzor92]

It was actually Croc that drilled that into him with the fight down in the poneglyph chamber.

[@binkssake7282]

that is only half true tho. Luffy's enitre stance on fighting fair/dirty only applies to his opponents. he doesn't hold them to any standards of fairness. but Luffy holds himself to the highest of standards when it comes to fighting fair. And it's not a matter of morality, Luffy wants to be the strongest so when it comes to besting an oppononet he sees as someone he NEEDS to beat to become pirate king (Katakuri, Kaido etc), he fights fair. That does not mean Luffy wouldn't be pragmatic in high stakes situations, he did not reject Kid, Law, Zoro and Killer fighting alongside him against Kaido (although they were all competetive about it) but if Luffy had a choice in it, he would have chosen to beat Kaido by himself (which is what the fight eventually turns into, barring the few interruptions from Momo & Yamato) even if it meant certain defeat (which is exactly what happens not once, not twice, but thrice) because if he couldn't beat the likes of Kaido and Katakuri fairly, he would never become pirate king.

Liam upranking Buggy from D to B solely to avoid the Buggy D. Clown joke is peak tier listings He’s definitely an oddball of a villain, in that everything that makes him incredible has almost nothing to do with his actual villainous character actions

[@AeneaSXI]

I disagree that Buggy was a joke as villain. He completely dominated the strawhats, defeated Zoro quite handedly giving credit to his claim that he is not afraid of any swordman, he also gave Luffy a run for his money and would probably have won the fight if he wouldn't have his body parts bound. He was a solid villain. Much more threatening than lets say Hody for example who was a complete joke, getting completely clapped by Zoro instantly in his own element even and then only relying on drugs for more power. And even then he accomplished nothing noteworthy except tanking alot of damage due to being drugged and backstabbing his own ally Vander Decken, without whom he couldn't even have posed a threat to fishman island with Luffy & Jinbe opposing him. Did he turn into a joke at the end of Orange Town arc? Sure but he certainly wasn't a joke during the start or middle of it. Even right up until his body parts were bound he posed a real threat to the strawhats.

[@theprosonicgamer2011]

1:20 I don't think anyone noticed this but, in between Buggy and Shanks you can sort of make out a sort of early artwork for Spandam. I mean, look at the metal face and shape and everything, it kinda looks like spandam if you don't look at him too much or in a close perspective. This just shows how early he was thinking about future villans in One Piece.

It might be a coincidence but Buggy is also the only one who has ever damaged Luffy's strawhat. He stabbed it and left 3 marks on it which are still visible in some recent panels which reminds me of Shanks' 3 scars that Blackbeard left on his face offscreen. All of those four guys are the current Yonko...

[@MoostachedSaiyanPrince]

3:30 - I'd like to think the inconsistency of Luffy saying "There's no such thing as fighting dirty in a battle between Pirates" to Karakuri is character growth. When he complained about fair fights in East Blue, he was still a naive rookie that expected other Pirates to hold themselves to his standards and how he perceived Shanks. But by time he reached Whole Cake Island, he's much more weathered and experienced, and knows full well that many of his enemies will take every advantage they can get to kill him, so he doesn't really see enemies playing every card they have as dirty tricks amymore. Either that or his morals have shifted to the point where he's more accepting of people thay don't fight how he would.

[@AlecMarron-kv5we]

I was about to comment the same thing lol

[@levijennings7918]

I started reading One Piece in 2003, shortly after it was published in Shonen Jump here in Canada, and even then, at 7 years old, I loved Buggy. He was so scary at first, but Luffy being able to turn someone so intimidating as Buggy made me love Luffy even more. Seeing Buggy's chibi adventures was one of my favourite parts of every chapter. And then his return in Loguetown!! I don't think I'll ever forget the feeling of seeing Luffy grin before Buggy executes him. His return in Impel Down! Slowly amassing former villains to his side. For me, that was just as exciting as the return to Sabaody. Oda has created a villain and a rival for Luffy so likeable that some of us want him to beat the main character to his goals. That is a remarkable feat of writing.

[@exoticbutters2781]

It would be wild if he somehow gets the other warlords to join Cross Guild. That would basically be the Rocks Pirates 2.0. Matter of fact, it would be insane if Buggy inherited Xebec's will this whole time. It would sure be one heck of a joke that Oda played on us.

@@KingKazon99 Luffy would totally give up the title of Pirate King the moment anyone tries to ascribe significance to it. He simply desires the freedom that comes with the title of Pirate King. On the other hand, Buggy views the title of Pirate King as Roger's legacy and therefore aims to uphold it. So Luffy relinquished the title to Buggy, everyone doing the shocked Enel face and the Strawhats laughing while they race back to their ship is the way I see One Piece ending.

[@James_Wisniewski]

To be fair to the government on the Impel Down thing, Buggy was the first person to join Luffy's breakout squad (albeit reluctantly), and he was directly responsible for releasing half the bulk of the final army that aided in the breakout, who then went on to be full-time members of his crew. So, calling him a ringleader isn't exactly wrong.

[@itzcrazydan]

I just realized that other than the cross guild chapter between wano and egghead, we havent checked in with buggy at all during the events happening on egghead

[@Rubberman202]

Buggy is my favorite non-Straw Hat Pirate character in One Piece, I just can't get enough of this guy! I get the feeling Oda liked him so much that he keeps finding excuses to keep him involved in the plot, even when he doesn't do anything involved with the Straw Hat Pirates. Given how much he keeps failing upwards, I wouldn't be surprised if he actually does find One Piece first, by some miraculous piece of dumb luck. What sticks out about him, for me anyway, is how he was introduced vs. what he became afterward. While he was still comedic in his introduction arc, Oda still tried to make him seem menacing and cruel, and had him use his own men as shields when Luffy bounced one of his Buggy Balls back at him. He's mellowed out considerably since then, and I'd like to think it was his misadventures immediately after being defeated by Luffy that gave him character growth and taught him to value his crew more, especially after seeing they memorialized him when they thought he was dead. There are also some odd continuity things regarding involving his flashback, but that doesn't impact his character all that much, it's just a bunch of weird contrivances. That said, I DO like how Oda managed to keep the whole "I hate Shanks because of this one treasure he prevented me from getting (even though it was mostly Buggy's fault)" thing despite Buggy and Shanks seemingly still continuing to be friends after this flashback years later, when it's revealed that Buggy is using that as a cover for the real reason he's resentful of Shanks: he thought Shanks (as the clear favorite of the two with their captain Gol D. Roger) would want to uphold Roger's legacy and go to Laugh Tale and was offended that he didn't want to immediately do that. It's details like this that make Buggy feel like a richer character than I initially gave him credit for, and again, he was already one of my favorite characters before this, and I just find it super impressive (and flashy)!

I, with absolutely no shred of irony, want Buggy to become King of the Pirates. Not as like an accident or a gag or a figurehead or whatever, my man deserves the W.

[@Nephalem2002]

[@joinmarch76]

For who to review next as a villain, I personally wouldn't mind Hody Jones being one of the next ones up. At first glance, yes, he's essentially Arlong's worse self, but like most of Oda's characters, there's more to what he says and does than one would think given how the Fishman Island Arc was handled.

[@NikoKun]

I had a theory a while back, that if Buggy trained his powers hard enough, or awakened his fruit's full potential, he could probably divide himself down to nearly an atomic scale, turning himself into a deadly mist that could selectively recombine within his enemies and destroy them. Or maybe his power would extend to things around him, enabling him to disintegrate anything.

[@AeneaSXI]

At the very least he could dodge every attack by splitting into atoms. How his offensive power would look like is another story I don't think it would fit well into the One Piece way of fighting powers to just creep inside someone and explode them...

[@HiHi-eo8cr]

Tbh, I kinda like the way that the live action version portrayed buggy. He is shown as a lot more dangerous and very cunning, but still keeps up some form of comedic relief to come.

Also thoughtful and intelligent coz he knows who to get a loan from and who to leave alone (could have joined Doffy), and in accepting Warlordship (could have rejected if he wanted). He is above the others bcoz of his Luck factor. Luffy lacks brains (bro needs to plan his moves atleast now that he is a yonkou, BB makes his own luck(goes for shit he needs, gets it and leaves doesn't push it), Shanks has brains no luck (lol who loses an arm to a sea king when u can defeat Fleet Admirals with one arm😐).

I think so as well. Question is just how does he get there? He still needs to find the Road poneglyphs or get copies of them. So either he backtrackts to Alabasta, BM Territory etc to get them or defeat Shanks/BB/Luffy or just gets them handed to him somehow... I wonder how he plans on getting those. Not to mention he'd need someone like Robin to decipher them as well. (Which I think generally is a plot hole in One Piece, why is noone thinking about the need to translate/decipher them except for Big Mom with Pudding? Like how did Law/Kid except to read them? They made like 0 effort to aquire anyone who can read them)

We all know buggy will get credit for finding the one piece when luffy finds it

I liked what they did with the Netflix Buggy, but I really really wish they had kept the ball kick scene from the manga

OG Buggy on chapter 16 looks like Crocodile with clown make-up on

When Buggy D. Clown will awaken his DF he will be able to split atoms at will, creating first ever nuclear weapon in OP universe. Noone will be able to stop him after that. During Marineford arc Buggy unleashed his new secret weapon - Muggy Ball. I think this was a great foreshadowing to his final power up, when every single atom within Buggy's reach will became like Muggy Ball but thousands times stronger.

The mother flame is pretty much looking like a nuclear reactor by the way it's portrayed so that would mean the wepon imu uses is a nuclear powered wepon

I respect the decision to not give buggy a special tier outside the system.

[@karatexperience]

I wouldn't call the change in Luffy's mind about fighting with honor inconsistency but rather a total understandable evolution of his character after his adventures, fights and, you know, witnessing his dear brother being killed in cold(?) blood.

Hello, CEO of Shanks Corp. Buggy was removed from office because someone found his nose in a panty drawer. Thank you.

I think luffys outlook on fights changing shows his growth, he probably learned partially from buggy that not everyone is gonna fight fair and thats just how it is

[@bratfettlp5512]

This was a great video in my opinion because it touched on all the right points about buggy as a villain. Over the years of watching, reading, listening to one piece I grew from not liking buggy/hating him actually to me growing fond of him and being excited about buggy as a true rival to luffy.

[@miketiplady2052]

Can we get a video on the greatest villain in One Piece? I’m of course talking about anime Count Chocula, the man who simultaneously had a beer belly and 6-pack abs, the master of disguise with more plans than Kuro, Foxy the silver-fox! We all know he’ll return in the 11th hour to noro-noro-beam whoever reveals the One Piece and take it for himself, so let’s get this S-Rank giga Chad on the board!

Reading old one piece kinda makes me respect Oda's growth as an artist over the last 25 years.
