Thinking About Luffy From The Perspective Of An Everyday Schmo In His World Is Hilarious. And I Don’t

thinking about Luffy from the perspective of an everyday schmo in his world is hilarious. And I don’t mean “I heard he was 20 feet tall” etc., though that is still really funny. I mean think about what’s public knowledge on him.

this guy comes out of nowhere, declares war on the fucking government, blows up the centre of their justice system, commits basically the biggest crime you can commit by punching super-royalty and somehow gets away with it, breaks into the most secure prison in the world, and breaks right back out again just to jump feet-first into the biggest war in recent memory, during which you find out oh hey his dad’s also trying to overthrow the government, his grandpa’s a war hero who works for said government, the pirate king’s kid is his adopted brother, and one of the freaking Four Emperors gives him his hat back. A few weeks later he breaks into the headquarters of the world’s biggest military (which is actively hunting him btw) just so he can ring a bell, and Roger’s right hand man is there helping him.

And then he fucking disappears for two years.

Suddenly he comes back, teams up with a Warlord of the Sea to save some country you’ve never heard of by beating up a different Warlord (who was also Pablo Escobar) and he’s being publicly hailed as a hero?? then he joins forces with Al Capone, a bunch of mermen and the villains from your comic books to try and assassinate one of the Emperors at her own tea party, and then he runs away and takes out a completely different Emperor while his friends take out the first one. Here’s his crew:

a guy who used to kill pirates for a living

a woman who studies ancient deadly superweapons and blew up six ships when she was eight

actual royalty

a world-famous rock musician

some kind of fish monster

God

also he has a pet raccoon or something and apparently feeds it cotton candy

and also his other brother is Ché Guevara. absolutely buckwild. how do you cope
