Best Death

[Poneglyph420]

Whitebeard's Death for sure. He died like the famous warrior monk Benkei, and that's just beyond reproach.
IF none of his grisly attitude, conviction or power didn't qualify it.. his death made the man more than a legend..

 

[k-dom]

Merry Death was certainly the one which touched me the most. Whitebeard one was badass but that's all. Well that's hundredth chapter of Merry against a few chapters of Whitebeard, I guess it can't be compared from a reader point of view

I am nominating Dr Hilluk's death. His dying speech was really good and really this award could do with more variety considering Oda's death scenes are quite good.(Norland, Tom, the rumbar pirates, all these still have not been nominated yet)

 

[M3J]

I nominate "Merry-Go" ... Almost crying for a boat ...

This. I actually cried for a boat... Oda did so well personifying it that I couldn't help but feel for it. Though it could be because of SHP's reactions more than anything else.

Jaguar D. Saul. He died to save Robin and give her the hope to carry on.

Whitebeard death

 

[mattiaildivino]

WB's death,because it's the only important death aside from Ace's ,which was very bad. WB dies standing,and it was very good for that!

 

[NarutoNamikaze]

Roger´s death/execution. Everyone, especially the WG thought that Roger´s execution would scare all pirates around the world but that guy started a whole era with just a few words.

Truly, Jaguar's and Bon's made me the most sad, though we can not be sure about Bon-chan, still, it was something that was extremely emotional, it even made Buggy cry! Though I would go with Marry Go here, it was a bonding moment, the death had a lot of meaning attached to it and a death of an "object" was portrayed so strong due to it's SPIRIT!

WB
That man was something else. His death will remain forever in my memories .
Merry's death deserves also the 1st place but since i have to nominate between the 2 i choose WB though i also cried my eyes out for that boat RIP for both Merry and WB

 

[BlackHair]

Merry Go and many other flashback death's were rly sad. Including Ace's. However WB's death is just freaking baddass epic. I mean the most time I always read sad death's, but that was the first time I felt this awesome vibe. Damn!

 

[Josef]

Hehe, yeah there is a difference between thew death being sad and epic, and even a greater difference being tragic like Ace's. Marry's was sad, but the ship was reaching it's final days, WB's death as well, epic in that it was a needed death for the new generation and of course a badass pirate legend does not go down even in death, and Ace died young, protecting his little "brother", truly the most tragic one, there should be three different categories I suppose, sad death, tragic death and epic death.

 

[Ratatosk]

Why isn't Roger on this list?

 

[k-dom]

Maybe because Roger is not a very appealing character so far

 

[Akainu]

that's probably the underlying reason - or he was too obvious or omnipresent or whatever, in any case, no one nominated him ;D as far as I can tell

 

[Kukriblades]

I was about to vote WB's death, then I saw Hiluluk.

So yeah I nominate Dr Hiluluk. Dude deserves it.

 

[k-dom]

I would have though Merry would do a bit better compare to Whitebeard (he almost twice her score). On the contrary Ace score is really small.
I must be to romantic, I found the way Ace die with the vivre card vanishing really more touching than Whitebeard badass death.
