The Reasons Behind Oda's Design of Gear 5 That Grossed Out Fans Finally Revealed!
Despite being the current pinnacle of Monkey D. Luffy's strength in the One Piece anime, Gear 5 turns out to be a joke that Oda created for the fans.
Gear 5 of Luffy is currently a hot topic of discussion among fans of the One Piece series and anime enthusiasts alike.
The hype surrounding Gear 5 is truly extraordinary, with Luffy's transformation becoming a global conversation.
Gear 5 itself represents the culmination of the power of Luffy's Devil Fruit, at least for now.
This transformation appeared in episode 1071 during Luffy's battle against Kaido.
In this new transformation, Luffy becomes an unbeatable figure because the power of Gear 5 is known to be limitless.
However, there is an interesting fact about Gear 5.
It turns out that Oda Sensei deliberately created the Gear 5 transformation as a joke to make fans feel disgusted or less pleased with the transformation.
This was revealed in an interview with Eiichiro Oda and Detective Conan creator, Aoyama Gosho.
In a tweet by One Piece fan account, Sandman_AP, it was explained that Oda intentionally made Gear 5 a joke for his readers.
This was because he felt that fans were taking the battles in the One Piece series too seriously.
Oda stated that fans would definitely feel displeased or disgusted with Gear 5, whose inspiration came from the Tom and Jerry cartoon.
Oda mentioned that he felt the element of humor from cartoons like Loony Tunes is no longer widely used in various media, making it a moment for him to incorporate that comedic style into Luffy's Gear 5.
The creator admitted that he enjoyed drawing Gear 5, especially after many serious moments in the Wano arc.
Despite the comical and humorous side of Gear 5 that Oda presented, there is another important aspect revealed in its story regarding Luffy's latest transformation.
By using Gear 5, Luffy is finally able to match the incredible strength of Kaido.
As mentioned in the episode, this represents the pinnacle of power that he currently possesses.
