YMMV / Dead End Adventure

Go To

  • Complete Monster: General Gasparde was a former Marine who turned to a life of piracy out of boredom. Eight years prior to the movie, Gasparde attacked the town Elena, murdering the majority of its inhabitants, attempting to drown the 3-year-old Adelle, and enslaving two of its survivors. During the Dead End Race, Gasparde has the bookie of the race give all competing pirate crews a fake Eternal Pose that leads them to a Marine stronghold, leading to dozens of crews being sunk. Soon afterwards, Gasparde does the same thing to the bookie who helped him rig the race. When Luffy points out that Gasparde was more than capable of winning the race normally, Gasparde reveals that it was primarily done to cure his boredom.
  • Ensemble Dark Horse: Shuraiya Bascùd has gained something of a fan following, thanks to having a cool character design (done by Oda himself) and plenty of badassery.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • Robin's massive hand attack wasn't actually meant to be canon, it's something the filmmakers came up with for the movie with Oda himself even mentioning that she could only sprout about 200 hands at best. After the timeskip, managing to make massive parts of her body with her powers is now a part of her skill set.
    • As of the Egghead Arc, Luffy being in shock at Gasparde’s 95 million berry bounty being higher than Crocodile’s is this now that Crocodile’s bounty is just shy of two billion berries.
