Zero the Crimson True, I mean in a series like that an intelligent and tactical main would be relatively dull, since it doesn't have the right build for the main character/s to stay at the sidelines until they want to prove a point. True. There is no plot armor in real life. Well in One Piece, smart and fun don't tend to mix well. Frankly you can only have one yet not the other. However the story is written well enough which balances both concepts. Not unless you count body armor, back-up, or being very well prepared.

Not unless you count body armor, back-up, or being very well prepared. Well, Robin's smart and funny....at times, but I guess that doesn't entirely count, so yeah you have a point. Yeah, but if the military broke down your door, defeated your men and had you surrounded, there is less than a 1% chance that something would happen to either turn the tides to your favor or allow you to get away.

Well in the case of Robin, she has a dash of deviousness that binds those two concepts together which makes it work for her. Well plot armor is generally for people not to die in the series. Never said anything about being defeated or captured. But then again it depends on your rank of importance amongst the protagonists. If you are literally at the bottom of the food chain then yeah don't expect much.

Even if we're background characters, we should survive longer that way. A new chapter for Denpa Kyoushi is out, and damn Kagami insists on doing everything the hard as hell way.

A new chapter for Denpa Kyoushi is out, and damn Kagami insists on doing everything the hard as hell way. Agreed, I'd like to survive....a background character or otherwise. True, but you gotta admit, he was pretty awesome.

Doesn't seem like it, but now we're back to Rebecca who's doing awesome I might add and all the losers being dropped in a pit...money bets they'll be turned to dolls...or at least that's the whole point of them being dropped.

More then likely yeah. Though I wonder what the exact purpose of the toys are. Cheap slaves perhaps?

Zero the Crimson It's getting epic, but still not quite..there, if that makes any sense. In that moment, I just thought of a perverted joke. But I'll leave that be. Anyways there is still Madara left to deal with. So there is still time for something epic to occur.
