I wonder The Wedding Between Sanji and Pudding on One Piece WCI Arcs can considered be a "Child Marriage"?

The Wedding is Flop and The Bride Side wants to kill Sanji and his family.

But Pudding (The Bride) is 16 Year Old (From Design I thought she is around 20)

I Know/Heard Japan Girls can marry if she is 16 years old and the parent approves But I don't expect Oda to make her 16.

Pudding is only 16?!

No wonder Oda has no problems still associating with convicted pedophile Watsuki...

I just checked, even Vivi pre time skip was 16. Not nearly as bad as these two but still, goddamnit Oda.

Most of the crew was in their late teens pre time skip. Chopper was 15, Luffy and Usopp were 17, Nami 18, and Zoro and Sanji 19. You realize this is a shonen. The crew, aside from Franky, Robin and Brooke are all really young

I read this post thinking that you were talking about Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro. I don't know if Oda was "paling around" with Watsuki; Watsuki was his boss. But Shimabukuro was just a friend.

I mean, there are still places in America where this is possible as well.

We should be aware this isn't just a problem in fiction but still a real world problem that needs to solved.

Not sure if it's what you're asking, but Oda was Watsuki's assistant and worked on Rurouni Kenshin. I think his most prominent effect on that series was convincing Watsuki to include a (sympathetic) crossdressing character.

Kamatari, who wields a kama (scythe) and is an okama (crossdresser).

For what it's worth, Eiichiro Oda was also big on cross-promotion Toriko because he's a close friend of the author of that manga. The creator of Toriko was supposed to be in prison for two years for hiring a 16 year old prostitute but the sentence was waived.

Now that you mention it, it does sound like I accused Oda of being a pedo too. I actually just meant it in reference to him still being friends with his former boss Watsuki and helping promote Rurouni Kenshin stuff even now (there's a Kenshin 25th anniversary interview that Oda and Watsuki are doing/did)

You guys went from 'Huh, this forced marriage is kinda funky' to 'Oda is a pedo' in 3 posts. Wow.

I always wonder where the outrage at every YA show is when I see these topics.

I mean, all those characters are always 16ish, they're in highschool and shit. And yet they are out there fucking vampires and whatnot.

Because Oda is big on T&A these days, which is a shame. The anime makes it even worse than the manga already is.

This thread is filled with template statements like "yikes", "sus" and exaggerated reactions to things that dont really warrant it (Sanji and Pudding come nowhere close to being married, and it was a political one set up by a psychotic and impossibly power hungry individual that goes by the name of big mom)

Don't even want to touch the leaps to "Oda is pedo friendly" which are statements that are laughably made in bad faith

Hit Ctrl+F, check for yourself. It's really weird to me when people misrepresent a thread that they're posting in.

Um, I think the problem is not really the crew's average age but rather how Oda chose to depict a minor character in such a... sexual way. I mean Rebecca might as well be naked with what she wears.

Except the point I was trying to make was the overuse of template statements, not the quantity of them.

It doesn't detract from the point i'm trying to make
