The One Piece comic series is currently in ARC Elbaf and has caused a controversy about something that the series has done for 27 years.
Until now, Eiichiro Oda – the author of One Piece has not hidden use Fanservice to retain young audiences. Therefore, the designs related to the female character are always the topic of debate between fans.
Egghead Island in particular, witnessed a number of revealing outfits for female characters, even Bonney only 12 years old, and 16 years old York. Now, Oda continues to do it with a holy monk.
In chapter 1134, when the giants were organizing a party to welcome the straw hat pirate to their land, two mysterious characters used a summoning circle that appeared on Elbaf Island.
Chapter 1136 revealed a mysterious person who was a woman, Gunko and introduced us to her incredible power. She went to Elbaf to recruit Loki to become a holy monk. They are the official law enforcement of the land of Mary Geise and rank higher than other world nobles. However, Loki rejected Gunko's offer and the two sides had a conflict.
Although Gunko's face was still hidden, Chapter 1136 revealed her full character design, accidentally controversial.
One Piece fans argue about Gunko's outfit
It can be seen, Gunko wears a solemn outfit, but fans believe that the upper and lower parts do not match each other. Her design reminds us of Smoothie and every female character in Egghead except Lilith. However, unlike the usual outfit before, ODA chose to make her outfit look more formal.
There are fans who commented: “Gunko wears Gakuran, traditional Japanese student uniform. In some cases, especially the anime culture, Gakuran is associated with the offenders, as well as wearing short skirts. … Although Oda is clearly exaggerated here. “
“Anime often thinks Gakuran with short skirts (and thugs, like Jotaro), but basically ODA has exaggerated this a lot, even Japanese fans also find this design weird.” , this person added.
This asserts that although the initial idea of design is really interesting, fans are not satisfied with this unnecessary fanervice. Gunko's design is criticized by Japanese and international fans. Although some fans are protecting it, the controversy seems to not settle soon.
Another reason for them to be dissatisfied is the status of Gunko is a holy and a natural dragon. Loki is an exception, but the holy martyrs often come from the world noble, the highest power holders in the world. However, her outfit does not create the presence as people expect from her noble status.
Moreover, although her age has not been revealed, she seems very young. ODA has faced past criticisms because of young characters like Rebecca and York wearing unsuitable costumes.
One Piece was the best-selling comic book in history and its popularity continued to increase thanks to the anime and the live-action adaptation. Therefore, many fans also believe that the series does not need Fanservice anymore.
