Straw Hats design -- post timeskip

[ahill1]

Do you like the Straw Hats' designs post timeskip? Or do you prefer how they were showcased initially?

I myself think some of them got too "flashy".

Luffy and Sanji's aren't that much different from before, so they're fine. Zoro's new look is also fitting when he has obvious ties to Wano, though it may have been better to wait until that arc to give him an obvious ronin inspired design. Franky's major change is also fine when he incorporated Pacifista designs into himself, so you'd expect him to be unnaturally more bulky. Usopp is okay, not really anything to say about him one way or the other, though I do personally prefer how he looked pre-timeskip.

For the rest of them, I'd say they're solidly inferior to their Part 1 looks. Nami and Robin went from having reserved designs to looking like a couple of thots, as though Oda thought the only thing fans saw in these characters was a pair of breasts. Brook is, as you said, too flashy compared to how he used to. Chopper is by far the worst change in design out of the entire crew with how any of his realistic reindeer traits have been thoroughly discarded and each of his designs is meant to highlight a cartoonish cuteness that was far more reserved prior to the timeskip, which causes each of his points to feel far less distinctive (not to mention Kung-Fu Point is a meaningless abomination).

I'm fine with all of the designs aside from Nami and Robin. Robin had the best design in Alabasta imo, the perfect mix of thottery and classiness. Now her and Nami have been degraded to sexual eye candy for simps.

I also prefer Nami and Robin beforehand. Not only due to the way they dress now, but their hair seemed more fitting and stylish.

Heh, I enjoyed Chopper's kung fu form tbh. It's kinda unwarranted but I thought it was well thought out. Resembles Kung Fu Panda a little.

Zoro is considerably more muscular too. While I don't mind it, I liked the part he wore the suit the most.

To be fair, Nami is totally the type of person to open up an OnlyFans account or sell her bathwater for a profit .

...And Sanji's exactly the type of person to simp so hard to buy either in an instant .

Sanji seems just retarded with the way he talks to women. I know that this part of him is kinda gag-ish and supposed to be fun but he needn't be so overblown.
