Mr. Fantastic’s New Form Seems To Be Inspired By Monkey D. Luffy

Marvel Rivals is one of the most played video games in the world. There were some doubts before the launch, but it didn’t take long for the game to erase them. Upon release, Marvel Rivals quickly climbed the charts, reaching a peak of over 440,000.

Players have praised the game for the mechanics and the character designs. Mr. Fantastic is among the many characters in Marvel Rivals. He is a well-known character, but his popularity has taken off because of Marvel Rivals and his powers. In the new trailer for Marvel Rivals, Mr. Fantastic could be seen expanding his body, which is reminiscent of Monkey D. Luffy’s Gear 4th. The latter blows air into his body to increase its size and become a muscular balloon.

After seeing the trailer, One Piece fans immediately noticed the similarities between the two. Obviously, Mr. Fantastic is not based on Luffy, but his newest form seems to be inspired by the main lead of One Piece. Most One Piece fans have taken this as a sign of Eiichiro Oda’s and One Piece’s growing popularity. It has reached the point where even people who have never watched the anime know about One Piece and the characters in it.

One Piece’s popularity has been on the rise. It has been involved in multiple collaborations. In 2024, Puma released four special sneakers that were inspired by the Four Emperors in One Piece. Each sneaker had the color scheme of an Emperor. They were such a big hit that they sold out within hours of being released. In fact, Puma announced that it would re-release the sneakers for fans who couldn’t grab one.
