As we all know, the "Kingdom of Peace" in One Piece is based on ancient Japan, and not only has the same customs and customs as ancient Japan, but also has traditional Japanese occupations such as ninjas, samurai, and geisha. For example, the main characters, the Nine Heroes of the Red Sheath, are made up of samurai and ninjas from the Kingdom of Washinoku.
When it comes to samurai, most people think of the "Bushido spirit" for the first time, which is a concept based on the realization of lifelessness, exerting as much of their abilities as possible, and then realizing value for the group or the collective. In the "Bushido Spirit", the samurai needs to maintain his reputation and must perform cruel "cutting the abdomen" if he fails.
Although the "Bushido Spirit" also emphasizes positive energy such as "righteousness, courage, benevolence, courtesy, and sincerity", it is actually a very extreme, even cruel idea. Although the "bushido spirit" has become obsolete in Japan, its spiritual influence on the Japanese people has always been there, and there are still many people in Japanese society who advocate this idea.
In the latest 1036 episodes of the One Piece manga, the author Oda questions and criticizes the "Bushido spirit" of Japan, and the words are very sharp. In the plot, Usopp comes to the place where Kinweimen and Aju are injured and prepares to take them away, but Nishikiemon and Aju push each other back, and neither wants to drag Usopp down.
At this time, Usopp was very angry at their behavior, and he angrily scolded, "Is that how you samurai want to die?" What is Gao Jie? What is blame! I don't like your culture at all! ”。 Moreover, Usopp also said that even if he has a runny nose, he must cling to the expectations of life, even if it is ugly, he must live to live, that is, to live to live now.
It is clear that the author Oda used Usopp's mouth to attack the "Bushido spirit" in Japan and criticize the "Bushido spirit" for disrespecting life. Although Oda's view is very reasonable, it should cause great controversy in Japan, after all, the volume of "One Piece" is there, and any remarks by Oda will become the focus of discussion.
Many Japanese literary works, film and television works are still promoting the "spirit of Bushido", and Oda's remarks are likely to cause fire, and even be sent blades. Of course, I believe Oda has also considered such consequences, after all, "One Piece" has never been a simple adventure work, which contains a lot of humanistic spirit and criticism of social phenomena.
