User blog comment:Staw-p/Luffy should have a weapon./@comment-1595565-20120101053554

Straw-p, just because the idea of him having a weapon might seem cool doesn't mean it's not completely retarded. "Because it would be cool" is not a good basis for an argument and in the end will just make you seem foolish. You're trying to make him invincible, which would ruin his character by making him completely overpowered and broken. Yeah, they'll encounter a lot of tough shit in the New World, and Luffy and his crew will get through it the way they always do, by fighting the way they know how, which in Luffy's case does not involve a weapon. In case you haven't noticed, Luffy has been able to sustain a shit ton of damage in all his fights. That being said, a few cuts shouldn't be an issue. You act like he shouldn't get hurt ever, which is illogical and impossible. In an even fight both sides take damage. That's just the way the world works. If you can't see that then it's a crying shame.
