User blog comment:Sentomaru/Are Devil Fruits too common?/@comment-3563898-20121029213802

No, devil fruits are not that common. Think of the entire One Piece world, only a very small percentage of them have devil fruits. The fact that were following a character who wants to become Pirate King means we'll encounter others who want to as well, otherwise there would be no conflict in the story(this means strong characters who will also have devil fruits). I think we all have to take a step back sometimes and realize that Oda is writing a fictional story here. He puts all these DFs in for our entertainment and people are gonna complain about it. Unbelievable.
