    I like to think that Yassop is scared of Usopp because he's heard these tales. He subjugated giants and Kaido's beasts, his face transforms into a demon that possesses an entire population of Dressrosa, declared war on the World Government, scared ghosts himself, he was once kicked out of the group for challenging the captain, and can transform into a superhero to hone in his evil side.

    In retrospect I loved the moment from Dressrosa for Ussop. He suddenly felt so much fear after Robin turned into a toy and was forgotten since because she was forgotten he also forgot his reason to go to Enies lobby and become brave. And because of that he made a massive stride in his bravery, like on enies lobby, however this time it was without the mask of Sogeking, as if he finally let sogeking go

  • @hirudinaria

    I thought the Brave Warrior thing was defined by Honor on little garden. Usopp has always been a liar, trickster and coward. His plans are often sneaky and illusion based. But what he wants is a life of honor, being able to stand his ground without running away and face any problems life may throw at him. That hasn't happened because he was literally a snake oil salesman at Wano and kept running away from Ulti

    • @riduanaqil1452
      @riduanaqil1452 9 месяцев назад +2

      Ussop is always like that because deep down he is always a coward but he also always strive to be brave just like with Ulti and Trebol. He WANTS to be a brave warrior but he is not brave (which is a good struggle for his character)
      But i get it tho.. 1000+ chapters and he barely had any character development especially after ts. So, if Elbaf doesn't do anything for his character he is gonna have a problem.
      (Just to add, after ts he does have more confident in himself but he is still rightfully afraid of the higher ranking officers. I think he is just being realistic but i really want to see Water 7 Ussop back in action)

  • @xNamikazeSamax

    If Usopp does get a norse based attack, it should be something like Gungnir. As a sniper it would fit. Odin's spear Gungnir is a magical spear which never misses, maybe something to reference his observation haki?

  • @TheBigE9999
    @TheBigE9999 9 месяцев назад +179

    I feel like Ussop's big Elbaf moment will be a declaration/fight defending his friends and their pride. His source of admiration towards the giants isn't just that they defend their pride and way of life, but that they actively seek out defending it. It doesn't matter where they are or what's happening, this is their way of life and they will gladly throw away those very lives defending it. In comparison, yes, Ussop has had his big "My captain will become king of the pirates" moment, notably against Miss Merry Christmas and Ulti, but he was already fighting them and he was already losing. Imagine if Loki or Shanks makes fun of Luffy and his dreams, and Ussop, knowing he can't win, knowing he'll get his sh*t wrecked, still challenges him and refuses to back down

    To this day I haven't seen anyone discussing how Yassop is the exact same as Ussop (they're both "cowards"). You can see Yassop, on the chapter or the episode where Shanks was near Wano, shaking and saying he is not ready mentally to meet Ussop, and it sounded ALOT like Ussop's chronic disease of "not going to that Island" before every arc. You can even see Yassop sweating and holding his heart before Shanks decided not to go to Wano, then he breath a sigh of relief 😂.
    To go back to Ussop, I think he already achieved his dream (sorta) I mean look the Islands they've visited, alot of them had planted a Statue of Ussop (skypia, Dressrosa...) And if that dosen't say "Brave warrior of the sea" I don't know what will.
    And as you said internet man, Bravery is to feel the fear and to do it anyway.

      I have to respectfully disagree.... While I whole heartedly want him to have his moment in Elbaf; he isn't going to be the worst Strawhat without it. He already has more growth than almost any other member; and being one of the core 5, it already has provided him huge screen time. If you really want to complain about someone doing nothing; complain about Brook. If you want to complain about someone being weak, Nami is as weak if not weaker than him. And if your point is just that you don't like his attitude or vibe, that's totally subjective. And on bad shenanigans and antics and being unbearable; Sanji is hands down the leader there.

  • @EK24z
    @EK24z 9 месяцев назад +19

    The fact that you've pointed out that Usopp tends to fall into positions of respect from Giants gels surprisingly well with one of my favorite Usopp theories: that he has (but does not realize) or will soon awaken Conqueror's Haki (see also: him lying about using it on Dressrosa and Wano, and having seen Perona and Sugar foam at the mouth during their defeats).
    If he faces off against Loki, Haki-infused ammo would probably be the way to do it - overcoming Loki's giant power and physique with willpower befitting a true warrior and leader.

      Imo the issue is that Oda isn't good at handling multiple character plotlines at once. He just wants to get in much for everyone, either making the pacing a mess or stumbling when he notices how much time already passed without anything of the corepoints in the arc happening, then cutting of some edges, giving the feeling that someone got a lackluster story. There should be less splitting up the SH and more teamup moments (like with Oz). Would help to give every SH a moment to shine.

    I think something that is often forgotten about the Sugar/Trebol fight is that Usopp ran away only after Robin got tagged by Sugar.

    It makes sense on other levels that Usopp ran away on Dressrosa, too. Sugar had just turned Robin into a toy and therefore, Usopp, or any of the Straw Hats, would not remember her. So, Usopp never has any reason to go to Enies Lobby and save Robin, which, in turn, never meets Oimo and Kashi and earns the right to go to Elbalf from them. It makes sense, then, that he never has one of the biggest brave moments before the two year skip and would run away from danger like before.

    I don't think Luffy and the Straw Hats will be "soundly defeated." They already did that at Sabaody but I do think Egghead will end with the Straw Hats having to make some retreat, to Elbaf, where they will learn of Kidd's defeat and learn that they are only around a half-day behind Shanks. But Elbaf will be all about Usopp until they learn that info. I also think Usopp will end up leading a brigade or division of Elbaf warriors during the final war, and those soldiers will total 8,000 men.

He's scared and he's in over his head, but I think what I really enjoy is the banter between him and Luffy. More than any other crewmembers, Luffy and Ussop act like best friends. Boys the same age, enjoying the same goofy stuff. There isn't a huge maturity gap, or personality difference, just two guys being buddies and that really comes out in Sonny's performance, especially post time skip.

    I don't think Usopp will ever be a strong physical fighter like Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji, but I feel he will get upgrades in Elbaf that improves his abilities as a sniper. Stuff like refining his observation haki and potentially learning how to use armament to alter or empower his sniper shots. I've theorized that a big event for him on Elbaf might be him fighting his father. After how his father abandoned him to become one of the greatest snipers in the world Usopp challenges him to a duel to get him back for that abandonment and show how much he's grown. I feel it's been too long since we've seen a Luffy vs Usopp type fight for Usopp where he gets to showcase how his tactical skills can make up for his lack of strength.

    I think Ussop will not really get an upgrade strength wise. Rather, I think he'll gain a following of giants that equates to the strength of 8000 men and 'lead' them in battle.
    I'm also rewatching the series, at Enies Lobby rn, and was talking about a Ussop upgrade and the next day... GLR Ussoo video!! Perfect timing 😊

  • @noahcarmicheal1239

    The Elbaf vikings are based on Norse mythology. Ergo there needs to be a hammer based weapon. It would make sense that Usopp could use it because he actually shows fear. He is the champion of fear, something most Giants and a few strawhats don't show.

So much so that you could say, if Usopp isn't in full body bandage at the end it's not a real arc. that might not look significant compared to say Luffy or Zorro, but is noteworthy since he normally is not one of those "wow he is a monster of a man that can smash everything" type of characters, he's mainly in the realm of normal human strenght.

      How much hits he’s willing to take remind me of this Taiwanese movie, “Achoo”.
      Basically, the main dude lives in a world where everyone has superpowers and he’s the few in the population that don’t. Therefore, to impress a girl, he tries to develop a power or some type of strength that might impress her since she has a boyfriend who’s pretty much Superman. So, he meets a retired superhero who makes the protagonist realize that he can take some powerful punches. And the mentor trains him in taking even more powerful punches. Soon enough, he gains notoriety in the boxing ring for being able to not KO. He is extremely hard and difficult to knock out, and his opponents aren’t so satisfied when they win. People start coming to matches to see the protagonist (even if he always loses).
      And Usopp is that protagonist. But he wins.

With Yasopp being an observation specialist his weak points would be his emotions of seeing his son again. He would be to nervous to see Van Auger's shot resulting in his death. That could be the reason why Yasopp left in the first place maybe he had a vision dying in front of his son and he wanted to protect Usopp from such a cruel fate.

    I do hope Elbaf will be a mix of Wano and Whole cake island in terms of character arc. Sanjis arc had the main focus on his character albut no power up, and Zoro in wano was the complete opposite. It would be nice to see him a development. Not a 180° but something that helps him fight more like a warrior. It would be a shame to see Ussops final battle be another comedic type. What if the giants give Ussop, at the end of Elbaf, their secret treasure which is like Mjörnir? A powerful weapon that works only if you are "worthy". In this case, "worthy" could mean "brave". When Ussop becomes frightened or cowardly, the weapon becomes extremely heavy and useless, but once he get's brave in a fight, this weapon will become unstoppable.
    You could even make the case that the power of that weapon is equal to the difference between your "fear" you are feeling and the braveness you are acting. This would give an explanation why giants are not using this weapon since they don't fear nor are cowards.

    The entire point of Usopp is that he is weak, him being super strong would ruin the point. Usopp never fails to show up when he has to. He stood up to Luffy because of what he believed in, he is the one that burned the world governments flag and did so being very weak and squishy. Real bravery is standing up when you're weak, it's easy for Luffy and Zoro to be "brave" when they are invincible monsters that can steamroll 99% of the top 1% of fighters in the world. Turning up for Usopp is much much harder but he always does it when it matters, every single time.
