As BB invaded Impel down, I remember as
even Ohana confirmed the spoilers, many called it
fake (me included). A la "pics or fake. Because at that time it was simply surprising and unexpected. That's something I would call unexpected or a plot twist. Thus I agree with
Kuma making Zoro disappear and my own vote
Poseidon. Since they made a similar impact on the discussion threads. I also understand Ace death.
As for the rest of the nominations I don't rly see how they can be considered surprising, shocking or even a plot twist:
- As Kuma made the rest of the SHs disappear in the following chapter, it was much less surprising and it was clear by now that Kuma saved the SHs by his act.
- As Oda revealed Ace to be Rogers son, I thought of that nothing more than an asspull. For me it was rather clear that at time Oda created Ace and Roger, he didn't think this through. I mean this whole Mom carrying the child for 20 month was touching, however from the perspective of a writer, it seemed to me too forced to create a father son relationship. Therefore I wasn't surprised or anything, just disappointed of Oda's weak writing.
- As for the "Monkey D" family and Luffy picking a fight with BM, not something I would call shocking/surprising much less a twist.
Anyway, I don't intent to create a discussion with my post, just writing my thoughts. I hope there will be more nominations. Just saying I expected more from this Thread. True I nominated myself just a recent twist, but this twist made a huge impact on my theories, therefore I nominated Poseidon. I mean before Poseidon was revealed to be a living object
and on FI, I was expecting it to be just another man made warship. Something like a submarine, since Poseidon in the mythology is related to sea. Also since the ponoglyph was found on SkyPia, which was originally part of Jaya, I expected Poseidon to be sleeping/sealed off in the waters around Jaya.
