Luffy’s biggest rivals are usually the Emperors (Yonko), the most powerful people in the world. But there are other characters in One Piece who could give him trouble, so let’s look at those who many fans think are currently stronger than him, excluding the Yonko.
We often think of the best games of the year as defining that entire year, but games are constantly being released and replaced. If a highly anticipated game like Grand Theft Auto 6 delivers, it will likely push another game off the “best of” lists. I think it’s more helpful to view these lists as snapshots of specific moments in time. A year might have many excellent games, consistently scoring high on review sites, and those naturally get the most attention. These top games might temporarily overshadow others, like Pokopia or Resident Evil Requiem, but even a short time in the spotlight deserves recognition.
It’s tough to recapture the magic of a great anime arc when you rewatch it. Knowing what happens beforehand diminishes the emotional impact, making it hard to feel the same way you did the first time. These truly special story arcs often lose some of their power on a second viewing.

Although Borderlands 4 started strong, it quickly lost players. Within two months of release, the game’s player base dropped by 96%, despite generally positive reviews from critics. Player feedback on Steam was more critical, resulting in a “Mixed” rating. Many players, especially on PC, reported performance issues like low frame rates, stuttering, and crashes, even with powerful gaming computers. Fortunately, the developers at Gearbox have since worked to fix these problems.
Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure is a famous series that artist Araki began creating in 1987. Although the manga was always well-liked, it didn’t receive a full anime adaptation until 2012, when David Studio brought it to life. Since then, fans have enjoyed a new part of the Jojo story adapted into anime every few years.
Similar to the first two Subnautica games, Subnautica 2 will feature a variety of underwater areas for players to discover. Last year, a developer video shared on the Subnautica YouTube channel unintentionally revealed some of these environments. A Reddit user, gamegeek292, noticed biome names within the video’s files, and combined with other promotional content, this gives us a glimpse of the diverse underwater world Subnautica 2 will offer.
I remember when Battlefield Hardline came out in 2015. It was a bit of a departure for the series, being a spin-off developed by Visceral Games – sadly, they’re no longer around. Instead of the big military battles we were used to, Hardline went for a “cops and robbers” vibe, and honestly, it felt a lot smaller in scope than the other Battlefield games. It was an interesting idea, but a lot of critics weren’t so sure it worked, feeling like it lost some of what made the main series great by trying to be different.
Initially planned as downloadable content for Dying Light 2, Dying Light: The Beast was released as a standalone game last September on PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S. It received a generally positive response from critics, earning an 81 from top critics and an 80% recommendation rate on OpenCritic. Reviewers particularly enjoyed the game’s improved parkour and intense zombie combat, though some found the missions to be repetitive and the story inconsistent.
Abilities were added to Pokémon games in the third generation as a way to give Pokémon helpful, automatic effects during battles. While some abilities aren’t very strong, eight of them were so powerful that they significantly impacted both casual and competitive gameplay. Some of these abilities have been weakened over time, but others remain incredibly strong, and are feared by experienced players.
