After Kaido killed all of his crew he literally became a shadow of his former glory

props to him for trying to save his crewmember/friend

He’s literally the definition of a powerful man losing everything

Moria is what Luffy would have become if Kuma actually killed his entire crew.

One of the only villains that seemed to genuinely care about his crew, or at least respect them

the fact that he was able to attack Kaido and steal the sword indicates how strong he was

The absolute definition of 'peaked in highschool'

Kaido: *gets humilliated by Luffy* Moria: Now I can rest in peace

Gecko is such an underrated monster. It took Luffy to consume 100 souls just to take him down.

If you really think about it, Moria's life is so sad. He's literally coping with the loss of his former crew..

As i remember, he said that lost most of his power by depression

the fact moria was considered kaido's equal and rival until he got all of his crew killed 💀

I fucking love skinny buff tall gecko wearing a leather open jacket, it’s literally one of my favorite looks for any of the warlords

Miss him, he cared for his crew so much, worth respect, just hope he's alive

After he lost most of his crew after fighting Kaido he probably gave up on getting stronger in fact it probably broke him mentally and physically and went into hiding with the survivors and made undead soldiers so he wouldn’t have to lose anymore loved ones 😢would have loved to see his full potential

Imagine Gecko took whitebeard's shadow and brought it out at war from ace's death

My respect for Moria being loyal and standing by his friend📈📈

He faced kaido and still came out of it strong enough to be a warlord. This man is a true legend

I low key hope Moria is alive and makes a comeback

Moria needs to hit the gym again and start fighting with his sword again.

I really hope Moria get a glow up, even if it’s not as good as his old self, for the final war, his old design was so cool.

Man went from clashing with kaido to being a government doll

His backstory his awesome and offers a way to see what could have happened to luffy if he went unprepared in the new world. He is surely one of my favorite characters in One piece

I wish Oda writes a prequel to One Piece, with Roger as the main protagonist. It will definitely show us the strength of the old generation pirates like Whitebeard and Gecko Moria in full and in their prime.

Gecko Moria has my respect he pulled up on a yonko to save his crew member without fear

Kaido didn't just beat Moria, he broke him.

Moria loves his crew that after they died he went into a depression but crazy to think he could go toe to toe with Kaido

gecko moria is now just a fat vampire

Moria is like Hanzo of Naruto. Used to be a legit almost top tier character

i really want Moria to make a come back

He went from a badass metalhead to a giant shallot.

As someone who hasn't gotten this far in the anime, dude has strong "Our vampires are different" vibes with his character design.

I'm calling it. Moria was a cabin boy on Rocks' crew just like the first children of Big Mom

Its interesting to think about how the writer said that dreams make you beautiful in One Piece. Koby grew taller and completely changed his image because he was actually working and trying to chase that dream. Moria is the exact opposite, he used to be bro of Giga-Chad proportions until he met Kaido. Kaido didnt just kill his crew and nearly destroy his body, he completely shattered Moria's dreams and took away any hope he had of chasing them.

Bro had that chad jawline.

In another timeline where his crew didn’t die, Moria is an emperor whose direct rival is Kaido-at least in my head.

Imagine Kuma's daughter turns him young again 🥶

Moría is the exact case of what Oda call "future if things go wrong" when he draws the future look of characters He was a strong warrior, but after a loss he lost his ambition. And what we see now is what is left of him.

I'm waiting for moria to get absolutely jacked while he is stuck in black beards prison like how uncle iroh did in avatar

I hope Blackbeard helps him come back relevant in the story as crocodile is now

If it weren't for the depression, Moriá would have easily turned into a younko

A broken crew a broken mind a broken man a broken soul Did none of you even realize that when he realized he was losing he didn't care anymore he was telling Luffy he will lose everything just like he did his final thought wasn't about winning it was just a man letting out a dying wail of his soul telling this young boy barely a man the horrors that awaits him Do you even understand what real strength is he lost EVERYTHING and still chose to try to save Luffy from the same

Moria is the definition of falling off

They need to bring him back to how he was it would be so interesting

Moria was the only enemy which took all of the straw hats to defeat

Shame he’s not a more prominent villain. His fruit is one of my favourites. Really op. Very versatile

Gecko moria back then looked like a Cool strong gangster(flashback) now he's just a walking L+Onion but yeah props to him for having the guts to fight a yonko to save his friend

They really did Moria dirty. I mean, just look at him clashing with Kaido! Same height and everything!

He seems to be the only character in the setting who actually let himself go instead of working to stay in shape as he got older. White Beard in particular stayed a monster even when he got whammed by both old age and generic shonen illness.

fun fact. moria has PTSD. at least According to the wiki. what interests me the most about him, is how much potential he had. and technically still has. I really hope to see him redeem himself. don't know how but I honestly believe out of all the evil pirates we have seen. he is the most loving and maybe even chaotic nuetural of Them all. I really have high hopes for him. he fought against kaido in his prime. I wish he could see the battle. he has such an interesting devil fruit.

Can’t express how much I like moria and adore his love for his friends. He went by himself to yonko lair knowing what he won’t be able to defeat not him, not his powerful commanders, just to save his friend. I really hope what perona saves him and he will return to his former glory

Bro is a definition of a glow down and a walking L, but props to him for being a chad and trying to save his crew mate

moria then: went toe to toe with a human giant who was also part dragon moria now: loses to human rubber band

I always liked gecko moria

I really love his df power and his old design(before he down so bad) he literally "The Ruler of Shadow"

Moria is underrated, he wasn't scared of kuma and telling kuma he knows about his powers suggesting he knows how to fight him, plus during thriller bark arc he was just toying with the whole sh crew and luffy before nightmare luffy appeared, i think that's what really beat moria the rest was just him barely standing up.

Gecko moria is so underrated gecko moria went toe to toe with kaido when he wasnt to fat

You have to give him credit for trying. Remember kids, be like Crocodile and never give up on your dreams.

Bro, Gecko Moria went from a beast who could go band4band with Kaido, TO THE PILLSBURY DOUGH BOY

Cant wait to see old Moria's spark back now that he's free from Blackbeard. Moria's face after they said they killed Absalom was anger and hate.

I wish to see a redemption story for moria. I wouldn't want a tragic character to go out that sad

his laugh is soo legendary 💗

as an guy suffering from depression and anxiety,I gotta tell you ,morias fighting skill depleted since that day his subordinates was killed,

Prime Moria sends chills down my spine

Minor spoiler! There is a chance that chad Moria will return! Because now he is imprisoned in beehive island, because he didn't joined Blackbeard's crew. Maybe he trained again during the time that he got imprisoned! 🤔

Damn. Prime gecko moria got that drip

I just finished the episode last night where gecko got defeated and everyone got their shadows back :) I really loved this arc the Halloween vibes were everything plus I finally got to meet Brook!

Moria completely lets himself go, he had six pack, now he has one pack 😂

His back story is quite sad I mean it’s luffy if kuma actually killed his crew , a downward spiral into the depths of depression and despair …i so wish to see him rise again n finding new ally on Luffy

Thing is: In a world where willpower is the source for the primary most powerful abilities, once your will is broken, you're done. I bet prime Moria and Crocodile both at least had powerful armament and observation haki, but after their defeats at the hands of Kaido and Whitebeard they lost that ability. I bet Crocodile has regained it by now though. Would explain that almost 2 billion bounty.

Yeah he was literally kaido level Editttttt:Why are y’all fighting 😭😭😭(btw oda literally confirmed that Moria was kaido level in his prime😭😭😭😭

I'm convinced Moria would've been either an Emperor or Emperor-level threat if he had defeated Kaido and hadn't lost his crew

Moria is one of the most overpowered people in the series if they gave him any sort of redemption. His power are actually insane, imagine the possibility of awakening with such insane DF. He could probably be a god of death

Moriar is still one of if not almost my favorite character. He's just so strong, full of theme, and was such a badass before losing his OG crew to Kaido. Everyone calls him a walking L but that wasn't by far the case before. My guy was a Warlord for a reason, and had the world's largest ship for a reason. Aside from Dofi, I feel like with his motivation, maybe even beyond Dofi, like he had before Kaido, he could've been a 5th Emperor, like Luffy was.

Kaido bodied him so hard he became one of those always-stand-up clowns.

Bro really went from a hot goth to a leek

Everyone thought the lyrics was "It ain't the same way" even though it was "Me in the same way" 💀

He be Kaidou kick from near Yonko level all way down to the Warlord

If his original crew werent killed, he'd probably be a Yonko.

Always loved him, the only reason he turned into a lazy bastard was because he loved his crew so much and he lost them, yet even though he tried to convince himself “I don’t need any crew, they can all be dead people who won’t die again”, he still loved his new crew with true heart, even going to the extent of going to a sea emperor’s territory alone to rescue one of them

It was confirmed that kaido was a beast since he was a kid, so gecko moria clashing with him as an adult shows how strong he was. Something must have happened for him to lose his strong will, I can imagine that losing your will may weaken or even make you lose your haki. Someone needs to ask Oda in a SBS. Depression could be the biggest killer of your own Haki.

I Kind of want him to come back with a powerup/goal to never lose his friends again and actually becomes strong

Considering how big gecko moria was. He sure can run pretty fast

His devil fruit is really strong. But his laugh makes him really crippy.

Really looking forward to his continued storyline. Dude is either gonna pull a Hawkins or some epic Moria and Moria pirate ish. Parona is also included. She was distraught about her crew and captain right before leaving Mihawk.

man moria my boy got nefti

Not gonna lie I was about 3 days old to discover that Moria clashed with Kaido💀💀💀💀

Man used to be a menace and now is a hollow shell

50 Year Later A group of young boys and girls were playing pirates on an island. Suddenly one of the boys stop. "Hey, you guys hear that?" "Hear what?" says another kid from the group. "Shhhh...listen" They all pause and listen. They hear a faint but clear violin echoing from the top of a hill near the shore. It is a familiar tune that Pirates used to sing long ago. "C'mon let's go!" says the first boy and everyone else starts running towards the direction where the music was coming from. They finally reach the top of the cliff and they find a tall skeleton with an afro sitting alone and playing violin in front of some tombstones. The kids walk towards him when they saw the tombstones clearly. There were no names. Upon looking closer, they saw there were some items placed on each on the individual tombstones. One had three swords, one had books, one had a long slingshot, one had a metallic rod, and so on. The kids came quietly and stood behind the skeleton who was sitting in front of a tombstone which was bigger than the others and placed right at the center. That tombstone was also unmarked but there was an old straw-hat on top of it with a jolly roger of a skull and cross-bones with the skull wearing a straw hat. One of the kids who a bit older than the others, gasps. "Mugiwara no Luffy..." he mumbles. The skeleton stops playing and turns around. "Oh hello there" the skeleton speaks with a gentle tone raising his hat with his hand to greet them. "Did you know him? The P...Pirate King?" gasps the kid. The skeleton becomes silent for a few seconds and lets out a gentle yohoho. "Yes, he was my Captain" smiles the skeleton. All of them gasps astonished. Their eyes widen and smiles. "Did you really sail with the Pirate King!?" one of them exclaims. "Well of course I did little one, I was blessed with the honor to be the ship musician because every pirate crew needs music you see!" "What were they like? The Pirate King and his crew?" exclaims another, all excited. "Oh where to begin! Well for starters, our shipwright was an eccentric yet brilliant cyborg who only ever drank cola. Our archeologist was a young lady who was troubled by her past yet found friendship with all of us. Our ship’s doctor was a tiny raccoon-dog, reindeer fellow. The marksman of the ship was a coward, but also noble and good-hearted. Our navigator was a foxy young woman with a nasty habit of stealing. The cook was a hothead and constantly tried to one-up with our first mate, who became the World's Greatest Swordsman and...." "And the captain? The Pirate King?!" interrupts the older kid. "Our Captain was the glue that held us all together, or should I say the rubber band? Yohoho! He was a spirit as free as the breeze that filled our sails and pushed all of us from the East Blue to the Grand Line, and on to Raftel where he found the One Piece." A gentle wind blew across the cliff tousling their hair. They were all speechless. "And if I were to say any more, I would say they were my family, and I miss them very much" smiles the skeleton. Suddenly they hear a sound coming from the ocean. The kind of sound whales make. The kids looked from the edge of the cliff and saw a huge whale with scars all over its forehead crests, and shooting water through its blowhole. The skeleton looks at the kids and laughs. "Yohoho! How about a song? This one is Laboon's favorite.. (Violin Plays Bink's Sake)

If only moria had haki and kept training he would’ve been strong asf

It’s kinda ironic that Gecko Moria the zombie guy is probably in top 5 for caring about his friends

my man had one of the worst glow downs in history

Just imagine the elite combo of Kaido's shadow being inside the body of Oars

I HOPE MY FAV CHARACTER EVER WILL MAKE HIS BADASS COMEBACK 😭😭😭😭 ODDDAAAAAAA

He literally looked like James Bond now he looks like a traumatized Ronald mcdonald

Moria literally has the biggest balls of the former warlords. Up there with Jimbe or higher. You don't just go at it with a yonko and expect to get away with it, and he did it twice... he failed at both though

My brother and his class vs me and my class: 0:42

Bro lost his chin

Tbh he had one of the biggest glow downs in one peice

They really turned Gecko Moria into Nickocado
