Marvel Rivals has become one of the most popular video games globally. Initially, there were some concerns prior to its launch, but the game swiftly put those to rest. Once it was released, Marvel Rivals soared in popularity, hitting a remarkable peak of over 440,000 players.
Gamers have expressed their admiration for the game’s mechanics and character designs. Among the diverse cast in Marvel Rivals is Mr. Fantastic, a familiar face whose popularity has surged thanks to the game and his unique abilities. The latest trailer showcases Mr. Fantastic stretching his body, drawing a parallel to Monkey D. Luffy’s Gear 4th transformation, where he inflates himself to become a powerful, muscular figure.
Mr. Fantastic’s New Form Shows One Piece’s Growing Influence
After watching the trailer, fans of One Piece quickly pointed out the resemblances between the two characters. While it’s clear that Mr. Fantastic isn’t modeled after Luffy, his latest transformation appears to draw inspiration from the One Piece protagonist. Many fans see this as a testament to the increasing popularity of Eiichiro Oda’s work, as even those who have never seen the anime are familiar with One Piece and its characters.
One Piece has been gaining immense popularity lately, leading to several exciting collaborations. In 2024, Puma launched a collection of four unique sneakers inspired by the Four Emperors from the series. Each sneaker featured the distinct color palette of an Emperor, and they were so popular that they sold out in just a few hours. Due to the overwhelming demand, Puma decided to re-release the sneakers for fans who missed out.
