Usopp is just so bro-tier. He never gives up on his friends, even when they're just a ship.

 

[Moaradin]

Nooooooooooo my Adult Swim stream stopped working. It's constantly asking for my service provider after I put it in

 

[Amikami]

I respect Ussop resolve and stuborness.

 

[Rewrite]

Plz punch Usopp, Franky. Keep doing it until he dies.

 

[Korigama]

He really just can't accept it.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Pathethic, usopp

 

[BassForever]

First episode of Final Act covers 12 Chapters.

Imagine Bleach at that pacing.

That's almost enough time for one character to finish explaining his power

 

[Mik317]

Ussopp stahp

;_;

 

[789shadow]

Yep, he's insane.

 

[Shard]

I guess I would find this more heartening if Usopp hadn't pushed you know all of his friends and allies away for that ship.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Usopp...

It's time to put the hammer down.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Usopp gone cray.

 

[Order]

Usopp is gone

 

[slightconfuse]

give it up

 

[Jintor]

nail split the ship plz

 

[Crocodile]

This isn't heart warming, this is idiocy. SMH

 

[Raxus]

Sonny Strait earning that pay check.

 

[Crayolan]

I'm pretty impressed that Usopp gives more dedication to fixing this ship than to caring for his own life.

 

[Dr.Palutena]

Usopp Usopp Usopp Usopp no pls not like this *BibleThump*

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Usopp isn't here anymore.

Leave a message after the beep.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Sonny earning dat paycheck.

Plz punch Usopp, Franky. Keep doing it until he dies.

Hey, man, ill kill you.

 

[Levyne]

it's just a boat

 

[TheChits]

 

[BatDan]

Someone give Sonny Strait an award.

 

[789shadow]

Sonny Strait be like "I want a fucking Emmy."

 

[Rewrite]

Can't even say that this scene is sad. It's pathetic.

 

[BassForever]

Sonny Strait said doing this part caused him to actually cry while recording it, the man deserves all the awards

 

[Man God]

This is when they'd play that music in Phoenix Wright.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Nigga, its time to grow up

 

[Jintor]

denial is badass

 

[Dr.Palutena]

There There Usopp, let it all out.

 

[Zonic]

Just checked & going by the original manga, they got the ship in 1998 & this arc happened in 2004, meaning the ship's been around for about 6 years. Dang.

& YES STRIDER.

 

[Shard]

This really doesn't absolve Usopp of anything.

 

[slightconfuse]

then why did you acy like a madman

 

[Amikami]

Oh Ussop. Then why are you trying to sail her.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

This is some of Sonny Strait's best voice acting to date.

 

[MikeBreezy92]

Yeah it got so pathetic that its not even giving me any feels.....

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Strider, neat

 

[B-Dubs]

it's just a boat

It's a metaphor for himself. He thinks the only use he has is keeping that ship going, so now that he can't he has to come to terms with his own uselessness.

 

[bigkrev]

Oh, Strider review!

I thought the game sucked

 

[Raxus]

I ALWAYS KNEW!

*strider review* mood whiplash. Would have been even funnier if we got to a hot pockets commercial.

 

[UltraGunner]

It time to learn when to let go Usopp

 

[BatDan]

The Usopp hate disappoints me...

Spoiler

He redeems himself

 

[MikeMyers]

This is some of Sonny Strait's best voice acting to date.

I always liked his Bardock.

MY SON

 

[lazybones18]

great time to stop really being stubborn Usopp

 

[Schadenfreude]

You guys are stone cold. Probably laughed when they had to put ol' Yeller down too.

 

[VariantX]

So he quit the straw hats and got in a fight with the captain because...

I think this is what people seem to not understand.

It really does. Sure he's stubborn, but he's got a reason.

So he quit the straw hats and got in a fight with the captain because...

Because he felt the only use he was to the crew was in keeping the ship in working order. When he couldn't do that anymore he was faced with his own uselessness. It's not easy to come to terms with something like that.

This

Usopp's childhood friend gave the crew the ship, and he joined with her. Up till this point he's always been the one "fixing" her and keeping her afloat. This whole arc is about Usopp confronting his weakness and perceived uselessness. He felt his one job was keeping the Merry going, and now that she's "going to die" and they're "going to get a new boat" to Usopp that's like telling him the one thing he does is useless and it's "his fault" the ship is going to die.
