“Reminds me of the old days”
Look, if we’re meant to believe that anime shanks or heck manga shanks raised uta from being a baby to a 10 year old why wouldn’t we assume the same happened for him?
Ray had watching duty, gaban had diaper change duty and Roger had waking up in the middle of the night duty when shanks cried
if they did raise him then i guess oda will just retcon this
i mean if u REALLY wanna break it down, Shiyankusu is 4 8 9 2/3/4, and Shiyamurokku is 4 8 6 6 9
Or shanks was able to go there
he won’t tho
Nah he’s right it’s from god valley , this isn’t retconned in the least bit
God valley sake
feel like it sunk
It’s just wiped off the map lol
Maybe Roger could have easily hauled in some booze on the way out escaping
Kuma saved 500 people
The sake could still be around
And gave it to shanks when he was older
Doesn’t need to be physically gone 🫨
This isn’t hard with imagination man
Hometown isnt always where u were born btw
Did Roger give baby shanks alcohol
Thats what "ages" would imply in that context yes
A while ago
exactly
its the town he was raised in
Perhaps when shanks was a baby, just a thought
Kuma saved 500 people the sake could still be a commodity
Nah he could have saved some for shanks when he grew up
Hey here’s some epic booze from the island we found you at we saved you a bottle
Thanks dad
My theory is that Uranus is a tool the moon people used to cultivate water from the blue planet
It displaced Lulusia, the island where Enies lobby was, and Me Valley were all transported
Shanks had access to wherever it was when he went to Marijoa maybe
I’m 50–50 on this
Shakky let baby shanks pop a cig
It’s literally not that hard to figure out how it’s possible
You save 500 people someone may have a recipe for the sake
roger kept sake from an island he looted for 40 years in case shanks might want it
That too
Ye that’s very pirate like , in the hopes that shanks could share a glass with him
And then Roger died
I imagine god valley survivors dont exactly talk about it
It’s tragic
to each their own i suppose
But shanks is resourceful so fair
We won't know until we see what actually happens to God Valley? Was it just erased from maps, or was it erased Lulusia style?
I mean if you wanna shut your imagination off yes
@grand flower where do u stand on “Mosa is trans Shanks”
What’s wrong with a dad pirate saving a glass for his son when he gets to be of age
And then it turning sad when he dies early
If they didn't have a Mother Flame back then im inclined to believe the former
Oh my god my story
Ranma 1/2 reference
I think its Shirahoshi
Haven’t seen it unfortunately
no shot in hell
U heard them
Then I'm left wondering if there are zero people still on the island. And if there are people still there, have they not sailed anywhere and have people not made contact?
Could be
since oda really wants to show us how evil the WG is, imu is going to erase god valley lulusian style, everyone on it, pirates or marines will be destroyed
now the question is, how could imu power up the ancient weapon without the mother flame? how did garp roger kaido wb and big mom survive
I swear to god yall can’t handle break weeks

mc turns into a girl when he touches hot water, his girl form has red hair n he catfishes his opps with it
Knowing Shakky she probably did
I don’t think Oda is gonna retcon it because he kept it consistent that Me Valley and Shanks’ hometown are both in the West
also a reference to Vampire by Osamu Tezuka where a guy named Rock cross dresses to manipulate a rage-feuled werewolf into doing his bidding
Unless the God Valley = Thriller Bark theory is true i doubt that
Yeah so far there is no need unless drastic plot developments happen
Me Valley is so corny ihy
Lmfao
Well, shit, you got me there.
God valley doesnt seem cold but the west blue also doesnt have grand line climate variation
its damn near the first manga i read its a classic
Doesnt say much basically
Love you, Shuron. Keep it up, buddy.
imma do Shuron like Caesar
That may be some kind of Japanese idiom thing
It is in West Blue
Even if Thriller Bark isn't GV, it being anywhere near that area could explain why its been left alone i guess
Yeah we don’t know anything about the climate , also spring lakes that have water coming from high mountain tops can be very cold as described
Whyre you calling it me valley
Mountain tops that seem like in god valley
Booron
Huh
No he isnt
Praise be.
Wait who’s god
Me
Rocks
Whoops
I've now officially starting the Cult of Shuron. Line up, everybody. The Kool-Aid will be blue-flavored, today!
Not rocks
I think I’m starting to lean to assuming Roger must’ve dropped off shanks now after a while of having ti deal with him as a baby
best panel
lovely
Top 5 one piece lines
holup
But that means we have a whole story of how shanks rejoined the crew to look forward to
Where tf is gloriosa and stussy btw
oda sure is writing them to be redeemable
God bless Saint Roswald
Stussy was shooting at some people in the last chapter
gilfs for me
I think if Roger had raised shanks from a baby WB would’ve mentioned it
more like ballswald
Garling when he knows he’s about to actually lose and die fr: oh no , it seems I have made a lapse in judgement , won’t you ever forgive me? I have been so wrong
Gloriosa is basically Hancock’s overbearing mother figure
Stussy meanwhile is running around trying to prove she’s Whitebeard’s baby mama
But when he reflects on Shanks’s time with Roger he just thinks of him as a kid with buggy
i regret killing all these slaves for sports 😢
He says as he just finishes stabbing one in the background
Here's Stussy idk where Gloriosa is
hunting Roger
Meanwhile gloriosa probably had Roger in her cross hairs but never fires ever just likes looking at him
Probably
Serial killers accepting jesus into their heart right before they hit the electric chair switch
anybody else find it mad interesting that Oda is off-screening Rocks’s fights the same way as Blackbeard’s
I just thought about how sad she must have been when he got executed
Yeah you can tell they’re related
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree
That’s probably her moment when she turns ugly and old
Right there
Exact moment
Does this mean Zoro and Meringue are gonna end up together
It’s not ZoSan but I can get with it in time
thinking about how Brook’s crew supposedly fled the Grand Line but didn’t seem to die from Sea Kings
awaken your heart to Zoku
nah K*ku
oh kaku
Kaku and Zoro is cute ig…
Kacci is cuter tho
unfortunately for zoro, kaku already has another in his heart
truu
How tall is she
ykw i just realized
shes like 12ft
9’5
poor izo
god
Kiku vs any other Zoro potential love interest is a sweep I’m afraid
Except Sanji ig
But she actually Negs Sanji bcuz woman
yeah zosan is the most powerful
im thinking about the parallel between Kaku / Stussy and Killingham / Gunko where the former seems to have a soft spot for the latter, what if Killingham has sympathy for Gunko since he’s a fishman and she’s enslaved
both women also got ringed eyes and bat wings
are secretly older than they look
both have a Halloween vibe
mummies n vampires
I hope Killing Ham is like Disney evil
Bro gon break out into a song
I don’t want him to have any redeeming qualities other than being extremely hot
Can't wait
Exactly
that’d be nice but he’s been showing signs of a facade
literal propaganda. it's not Sunday.
being more merciful when Imu isn’t around, defending Gunko from Sommers’s dickness
It's Kiku Tuesday!
it is now
Broadway Villain type beat
If we all choose to agree it’s Sunday, it will be Sunday. That’s how the world works! Collective belief
but what about the world outside this server
how will we face the non sunday believers
with torches and pitchforks?
Well we have to convince most of the world ofc
Take the punk hazard approach. Gaslight
Let's collectively believe that the chapter is out
Wow I can’t believe Gunko killed Rocks
Finally this flashback got good
@hasty sable lol
We discussed in vc yesterday
Whitebeard likely figured it out later
Kaido didn’t
The only person there that can realize that's Imu is Rocks
Cause Roger told him everything
He didn’t tell kaido shit
Also Rocks doesn’t tell his crew shit
But I doubt Imu got there in the same form she's usually in in the Pangea castle
They’re all left in the dark
That as well , but even later on , we have the scene of Roger and wb
None would know they’re looking at a gorosei , at a king of the world , at an imu
Yeah rocks would know , but he may not tell them cause he dies here lol
HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT.
I am a visionary
MY THEORY WAS RIGHT
MY THEORY WAS RIGHT
As I said, Rocks is the only one that could realize that's Imu but it depends on what she looked like in God Valley
Lukewarm
I mean the chance isn’t very likely despite how powerful those people are
That's impressive tbh
its not likely but it isnt zero
Yeah depending on how much the current transformation changes her , but it’s likely he did know, I just think he didn’t have a chance to tell them anything besides “the world”
You miss every shot you dont take
GLAZE ME, #also-manga !
10 wrongs do make a right
"Even a broken clock is right twice a day" ahh
I only glaze the man up there
Feels so good when you call it
Goda??
Poda
A broken clock is right twice a day
the birdcage parallel
Ok
Oh someone said it already
On the nostril even
Sorry
Thats a decent pull
I called this while I was in romance Dawn so quite similar! https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1427611333787910218/1427760164555067422/image0.jpg?ex=68f008c5&is=68eeb745&hm=a7ca56ed78134c96c634503f5c7e0413bead69b8873133e670c71257e3cd09f9&
Ppl dont factor that into their eos predictions much still
this is why yall gotta start reading my theories
Imu very much is gonna start sinking islands left and right
Sea level rising with each shot
Not global warming bro… ancient weapons!
So cloooose
I still don’t get how filling a hole with water causes the surrounded water to rise
I wasn’t even at the grand line yet 
Alright meek give us your ultimate theory, if it doesn't work you're getting banned FOREVER
I already did
its kinda silly since we got the hints of flooding very early
I dig it
He's going to Laugh Tale with the SHP
I don't dig it anymore
we have a literal noah's ark in fmi, mariejois is in the one place that wont be flooded
He got Domi Reversi'd
I definitely don't dig it anymore
this is why we dont read your theories meek
A broken clock
Xebec and his wife’s souls are chilling in Teach’s body
If you shit out a million theories about four of them will be right
Luffy = God
Imu = King
Natural disasters = Imu
Making them happy = Luffy
but its not imu's power
This is a stretch
But I'll give it to you
Every theory is right if you believe in yourself
Ignore the first two messages.
The third one is ON THE NOSE.
I literally predicted Domi Reversi
Holy fucking shit
no meek youre right, dragon WILL die to imu
You just spit out theories, eventually some will happen 
Youtuber strat
because she has the blood line element of Lily?
(random character) will (random action) to (random character) x719308293
I mean….now you said it
So either she is or isn’t

i mean yeah what if she is
thatd certainly be something
Vivi is immune to Domi Reversi because she is Lily's descendant.
Nami will conquer uranus
HOLY SHIT
WOW
how tf did u do that
I'd let her conquer my anus whenever she wants
Who's with me
I'll take one skull react
i called a bunch of Imu’s powers but the server i was in banned me 😭 including the HK regen
#also-manga message probably
"you don't know my girlfriend, she goes to another school" ahh
yea let me get my one piece reddit discord clout n lie rq
mhm
You are the best translator, Meek. I loved your work on the most recent chapter!
wholesome also manga
Meek you are a better translator and more handsome than Stephen Paul
wow my chapter 1000 prediction was so bad
you got it
0/7 is crazy work
How would any of these things have tied into the Wano storyline? 
Greenbull -> 1053(?)
Vegapunk -> 1063(?)
WG secret weapon -> 1059
Imu -> not yet
Sabo -> 1053(?)
Vivi -> 1053(?)
Hancock -> 1059
But joking aside, i started with Skypiea as the template, assumed Imu is Nika’s opposite, and the opposite of freedom would be contracts
lowkey, I was off by only about 50-60 chapters...
I don't. Now crown me.
wait - when did we find out about what happened to sabo/vivi?
I know hancock was in 1059
oh
sabo was the flame emperor chapter + same as greenbull
what about vivi
Honestly I have no idea
1070 or something
I forget the chapter as soon as I read it
it was that late?
Yea
oh wow
One day, I want to have every chapter of OP memorized
Down to the page
Not down to the panel
That's a bit too unrealistic
Install one of Elon’s brain chips to spam your vision with one piece chapters
FACT: It's impossible to remember every single chapter of One Piece because reading FMI affects your memory
Hell no
Fuck Elon
I wont be getting into anything more political than that, Bloodthighs 😉
What happens in chapter 368
should i actually try to figure this out
well I know chapter 363 is aqua laguna
One piece be prettty political tho
so
nothing political about hating a guy tbh
Sea Train - Sanji vs Ramen guy
am i close?
I wouldnt know

Tekking would probably know at least half of every chapter on a hunch
Good for you meek
HOW
GOD DAMN IT GUYS SHUT THE FUCK UP AND CELEBRATE FOR ME
I GOT THE CHAPTER RIGIHT
@vital heart chill. this is your last verbal warning
be humble about it
This server should track and preserve both failed and successful predictions. Like a museum we could go visit for a bit
too many to count 
nah
hell nah
im banned in the next 2 years
unironically
bc im getting banned at the end of elbaf
lol
dr hiriluk bet is still funny to me
?
oh
man
why wasnt hiruluk and zeff apart of the rocks pirates
@oda you fucker
oh right people thought he was Xebec who was dropped on his head or something?
what
who
oda would never remember some random old guys
chopper's dad and sanji's dad
Wait what’s the bet?
silly meek
O
The whole reason why I have this as my PFP/Name is because of this bet
ricotta mining is a noble profession
"its right behind me isn't it"
only the One Piece fandom comes up with this
hahaha the 'im not joking'
someone was preaching this last week
Hiriluk not being on rocks is a little disappointing but he is weak tbf
tragic
Okay listen, I too think Hiriluk was on GV >.> waiting to be proven wrong still
their evidence was... the poses they both do
Kureha, Zeff and Hiriluk all deserved expanded backstories
ah, just like how people thought Xebec had the Ope Ope No Mi because he gestured with 2 fingers
I don't think they found many enemies capable of dealing enough damage to Xebec / Kaido / WB / BM / Silver Axe / etc all on the same team
If One Piece was good
They dont need 1
If some1 needed a doc
They just died instead
And say 'skill issue ngl"
peak theory I can't lie
Op fans exposing that they cant count to 2
it would be cool if Kureha was their doctor ngl, but alas
we got Gil Bastar, Don Marlon and Silver Axe instead
Kureha's old ass was 103 during GV lmao
probably physically peak for her
What you mean old
snail
An attempt was made
Proof she was with rocks
wonder if the live action will adapt this scene, lol

Kureha picking up Chopper and chucking him into a cabinet
Netflix is too woke to do that methinks
there is Komi in the GO game, its similar to Reversi.
Komi = 6.5 points, the exact opposite of 56 = Gomu
I still think its so funny that Jamie Lee Curtis chose Borderlands over this role lol
the gifs are going to be viral, lmfao
especially if they adapt the crying Chopper scene
oh no
such a loss smh
Based on her decision making, was it?
based on my personal feelings towards it
fuck her lmao
cough cough
man i'd be so shocked if they even get past Alabasta atp
At least they didn’t try to cram the grand line adventures into the first couple of episodes to rush to Alabasta
Skypeia would be very hard to do probably
hmmmm
Most arcs post alabasta would be imo
and Zoro is a "king of hell"/ Enma-Daioh
it's an investment from oda to bring one piece to another branch of viewers, I'm not the biggest fan ever but I know a lot of people liked it
the kanji is Devil (Ma) and Oni/ Ki
i'm sure that it's appreciated by a lot of people, i just don't see it being stable in the long run.
it's very hard to adapt One Piece specifically, lol
The live action got my parents into it when they wouldn’t even give it a second thought
the farthest POSSIBLE thing I can see them go to is Sabaody pretimeskip
Now they’re like “where is he gonna go next” , as long as those kinds of people keep watching it’ll keep going
that's why i want it to continue, i just can't shake the feeling that it won't last long
Idk how long it’ll last either because after a certain point whole seasons would have to be mostly cgi lol
Imagine impel down
yeah, or even Thriller Bark
Maybe they’re taking it as a let’s see how far we can go with it and expect to hit road bumps at those points
i hope it does continue, since a lot elderly folk are picking up interest in it like you said
or, older, i should say lol
it would either be mostly CGI or they'd blow their budget on making the props and backgrounds etc.
can only imagine how much that would cost in the end
and then they'd also need Kuma, Perona, Oars, Moria, Absalom, Hogback, Cindry and Lola
whom some of them have extremely unique powers
I like Wano
OPLA ended so far with arlong park right?
Yeah
didn't it end with Garp and Luffy "fighting" sorta
I didn't finish S2
right right
Next season is expected to stop at beginning of alabasta
S2 isn't out yet, so
oh wait it's just one season so far I must have misremembered
just like how we got a Smoker tease at the end of this season, we'll get a Crocodile tease at the end of the next I assume
We were originally going to get 10 episodes but they cut it down to 8, maybe if they did Loguetown in season 1 we could have covered Alabasta in season 2
I think way more than a tease because the actor who plays him seemed to be heavily involved in the season
From his own hype
Season 3 alabasta's the correct move anyway
It's a big arc, imagine squishing it to 2 episodes? Horrible
i think you could handle alabasta in 4 episodes
could be a Garp scenario then, that they introduce Crocodile way before Alabasta?
i dont know how they can possibly stretch it out to 8
A whole season though feels like it could have the opposite problem
Yeah I expect a lot of shifting around like the garp or even krieg stuff
they dont really have a good stopping point in s3
wonder if Mihawk will be relevant, due to how the fans loved his performance in season 1 lol
even if it's just a side-segment
they could always go the 4kids route and end s3 with the jaya ship falling on the strawhats and killing them
Not if the arc itself can be handled in 4 eps like some are saying
Season 3 could end with them punching Bellamy
Meaning season stopping point would be later
and then season 4 starting Skypiea
I genuinely think ending the series at S3 Alabasta is the best possible move
yeah
So, end S3 on the shot of arms in the air
now that i look at it, s2 will be covering roughly the same amount of chapters as alabasta is long
Ideally , but show running wise , that’s giving too much time to alabasta with their pace
I'm looking at how many chapters the episodes cover
Not least of which future looking, what even the hell kind of stopping point is there after Alabasta
right now s2 is set to do 59 chapters of content (plus whatever original stuff they add)
I guess Skypeia maybe, but after that there are no breaks
alabasta is 63 chaps
i'd say the place where Montblanc lives
Worst case scenario they could always invent a stopping point lol
Season 3 Alabasta and Enel
they could do all of the skypeia saga in season 4
with them luring the audience of the thrills of sky islands etc
Season 2 should just be all of Baroque Worls imo but it is what it is
Frankly I just don't wanna see live action gear 4
That’s a concern for you 15 years from now
I hate that they limit themselves to 8 episodes
sounds reasonable to me
They did the sets and casting and even recorded some stuff for loguetown in season 1 but ended up cutting it
didn't find a lot of info I give up
better to do that, instead of releasing something they aren't proud of
I remember the Dragon actor was pissed so they ended up replacing him
wasnt he only playing young dragon
I don't think so
dragon getting mogged even in the live action
i couldve sworn thats what it was
maybe the actor wasn't "good enough" so they decided to remake it with a new one?
I don't know the name of the old actor, but yeah he never ended up in the show anyway
this was the first casting, right?
Yeah
tf you mean good enough it's dragon you don't need gary oldman to play him
rigo sanchez is the new one
it's not like dragon's doing much
he did hold a pretty impactful scene in Logue Town
i think it's important to nail that scene
Rigo fits definitely
hard to say if he is better or worse given we didn't see the first guy
Yeah it's Rigo Sanchez
very good casting if you ask me
Agree
season 2 will be 59 chapters
i've never seen the first guy, what roles does he have?
No idea
minor roles in some tv shows
i search him on gifs and get nothing that looks like him
I’m disappointed in live action Roger and shanks tbh
yeah.. he probably didn't cut it then
second one is a movie actually
I thought they were good
what opla needs is someone really famous
i think the Roger actor is great, though of course i'd want someone like Johnny Depp but that's unrealistic
They’re not bad actors necessarily but they don’t have that primal masculinity I like in Roger and Shanks
Especially Roger
Shanks actor is... Well he does his best
They should be beef cakes
Timothée Chalamet as post training koby 
i mean you can't expect that physique lol
Johnny Depp can suck ass and die
I mean like Roman reigns maybe
Or the dude in the new running man
plus i don't think Roger was that fit at his deathbed
@wet heron https://x.com/AkrowArt/status/1978088459936927840?t=Nj33U8nnwkKnXO6JnHzaZg&s=19 this is art
Dwayne Johnson could work as Akainu lol
I like that they went for the more crusty look for Roger
I can see that
Or Batista
He's supposed to be sick and dying anyway so I think it fits
Fast Five Dwayne yeah
however if they do a flashback where Roger is shown, then he needs to shape up definitely
you know greasy ace
now get ready for greasy roger
Terry Crews as Kaido is my dream pick
with his mustache nose hair
Shanks is very different but I like that softer version of him too
Shanks actor just needs a makeover
I couldn't stop looking at his fake slippers
Lmao
I mean in live action Roger looked like shit
And looked pretty sickly
With his yellow crooked teeth
Temu Ryan Gosling
i don't know why they didn't just do a 1:1 for his outfit
I sail
like it's a simple outfit to replicate
I don't think I had any issues with the casting tbh, they all look the part, but some of the costume designs need improvement, and the acting was questionable at times
The wigs...
definitely agree with the costumes
they should be more accurate
https://x.com/opmangart69/status/1978133325270106510?t=z2sZ1oejqArMrCzqMBQKJA&s=19 davy family rules @wet heron @wraith mantle @steel stirrup
The wigs were so bad
Mihawk's outfit was great, i just wish it was a bit more vibrant lol
Buggy was great
his fit is great too
A very different take on him but it worked
Buggy was great yeah
Nami’s wigs were atrocious yeah
they went full jonkler
Which is sad cuz Emily Rudd is very beautiful
Mihawk stole the live action show
Isn’t his actor an agenda poster
He was posting Mihawk painting memes on his Twitter for a bit
why do queerious -the woker
Emily's natural hair is pretty much perfect already, it's kinda tragic that they gave her that shitty wig
afaik the only thing that Mihawk actor said was "Before I was a Shanks fan, now I am a Mihawk fan"
helmepp ass cheeks are essential to the plot
or something like that, lol
he looked fine
Nah
he looked like a normal englishman
maybe when ben actually does something
not the most 1:1 I guess
Rofl
bro looks like his name's Sam
Ben Beckman is a hard casting in general tbh
Ben Beckman is the strongest character because if he gets into a fight he just shoots the other guy
divorced beckman
he has yet to ever fire said gun
does he even know how to use it
On screen
i've seen people say Ben Affleck would be a good Ben Beckman, lol
i don't see it personally
Honestly
they are both named ben
I always forget these actors
i guess so
He was the star of the AMAZING movie Gigli
does Ben Affleck look good with long hair tho?
oh uhh wasn't he daredevil in that spiderman movie from a year or two ago
he was
people have suggested Scott George as well as Ben Beckman
hmmm
That's a 70s look
maybe if he had a slickback like Ben
Give him a low taper fade
okay, i could see him as a good Ben Beckman ngl
Yeah cuz that movie Argo is in the 60s I think
It checks out then
Yea it’s a true story
Smoker and Crocodile got really good actors
True
why did he do that
Furio da goat
he was cast for croc?
Yes
I find it funny how the biggest name in live action is fucking Mr 3
Played by David Dastmalchian
that picture of croc is so scuffed
He’s a huge nerd so he will take a role like Crocodile very seriously
being a nerd is the best you can be when you're an actor istg
I think in an interview he said he studied and talked with Oda about Crocodile’s history to play him best
SOPRANOS

Like specifically how he lost his dreams by losing to Whitebeard
Gabagool? Ova here 👇
How did it went today amico ?
Oh this is from th LA
I did not know that
I thought this shit was just a meme lol
It went great, thanks for asking 
Some guy did a cosplay or something lol
He kinda looks like Joaquin Phoenix here
I never doubt in you so proud like i did it myself
If you were cast in the live action, would you shoot your shot and ask Oda for the goods?
Always believe in yourself
What're the "goods" here?
only if it was necessary for the role, otherwise i wouldn't privy
I'm good on that
the buggy episode is nice
So the joke where they look similar would work
Whatever you’re most curious about. Someone would definitely be an Usopp and ask what the one piece is, calling that now

He wouldn't answer that
Oda: ...!
But I may ask him something about a particular thing lol
i feel like it would be disrespectful to ask such a question, lol
Yeah
the most agenda filled question you've ever seen:
And he's obviously not going to reveal anything big
ayy I'm walking here
he'd probably think you were dumb, like "did he honestly think i'd answer?"
I want to hear about the motherfucker who gets cast and instead of asking Oda for info, they drop their craziest theories on Oda
Silvio vs Kaku
Paulie vs Jabra
Chrissy vs Spandam
Zoro’s greatest defeat
get rusted zolo
rusting your entire body is fucking scary ngl
scary ass fruit
sadly mihawk is from iowa
my guy's power is oxidization of any material? busted
Shu is still alive
zoros worst nightmare right here. becoming a person of color 
Arthritis Man would absolutely body Zoro
he was leaking coc so he counteracted the effects of the fruit
Zoro and Sanji would be best friends if he was White Foot Sanji
Does anyone here remember when people hated the Xebec design
you might be onto something
only the first chapter. i was sold the minute he stabbed an annoying kid
I think people didnt like that Xebec looked like BB but.. yk 💀
i definitely prefered the sillhouette, lol
Oda is capable of making father and son designs without copy pasting their faces
me after the soup
its not really a big copy and paste
Maybe it’s an anagram and Imu’s real name is Dr. Low
next chapter will be divisive
it's usually very divided in pages yeah
nice
like 15 usuallt
this is either gonna make people love GV or hate it
Rocks is gonna get rocked
ngl Domi Reversi is just too overpowered if that happens
Rock = Lock; Davy Jones' Locker
Rocker = Brook
It needs to be overwhelmingly powerful imho
G5 counters like a Pokémon battle
Rocks that booty
Once everyone is free, Imu will have no power
Imu will be a raid battle anyway, who cares
kita kita kita kita kitaaa
ngl if Imu can just domi reversi people, I dont think so
it will literally be the world against them
how can it be a raid battle if everyone becomes demons 💀
a quote by Harald
Imu very well may not even be the end boss. That’s still up in the air
Imu can just switch up anyone who challenges
the story would crumble if they aren't tbh
Well there'll definitely be a way to reverse it
all those 800 years for nothing, lol
Rocks killed demons
but the davy family seemed dead after
if Yami Yami can suck the devils, maybe it can to the Supreme Devil Imu 
so idk if u actually can
He's not nika
Not necessarily. We still don’t know jack about Imu and based on Oda’s track record it could go either direction
without gear 5 u basically lose the possessed person
which is kinda crazy
Dorry and Broggy would be dead
Luffy has to be the one who defeats Imu, given all the Joyboy stuff
It’s like a game of Go where you flip the pieces. Imu can flip the pieces to black. Luffy will be able to flip the pieces to white
it would be very, very, very weird if it wasn't Luffy who defeats them in the end
I expect it to be Luffy, yeah
honestly the regeneration stuff is a bit tiresome already, if you ask me 
I'd be surprised if it wasn't Luffy
oh don't you worry we're only gonna see them from now until the rest of the series
I don't think I'd care though
I think there’s a real chance we get Marineford 2.0, with Shanks in the place of Ace, and BB at the helm. That’s kinda where my head is at atm
I just don't care that much about Imu
nah we're already figuring out the counter to it this arc
Luffy not having a confrontation and kicking Blackbeard's ass would be something that would actually bother me lol
why Shanks? he already has Garp if he wants to do that
then we're never acknowledging it again except for one or two moments like future sight
Precisely!
i mean he'll do that too, lol
but i think that Imu is a larger threat
if they all get gear 5 powers then yeah they can jump Imu
Stop
That's not gonna happen and it's a stupid idea
We know that the white pieces are just their regular selves
didnt people say that about gear 5 in general
man i hate that bb is probably going to be involved with whatever happens with imu
I'm already lowering my expectations because chances are I'm gonna hate the final battle
He left Shanks alive when he scarred him. That’s a curious thing. And Shanks is Luffy’s weak spot, since the running theme of family being an exploitable weakness has been in the story since the first chapter
Imu just isnt the main villain, we have been following BB the entire story like Luffy
Why do you say that?
yeah, i feel like it's very much so divided into two parts
people will hate it if it's Blackbeard and people will hate it if it's Imu
there's very much so two camps atp
oh are you back to blackbeard being the final fight
I have been for like 5 months now
he has been ever since Xebec was introduced, lol
ah
I LOVE BB FINAL ARC VILLAIN 
I HATE BB FINAL ARC VILLAIN 
Huh? 
Well... Blackbeard will be more involved than I'd like him to be, it's basically inevitable at this point
my main hope was for blackbeard and imu to be two seperate conflicts, one thats a personal one for luffy and another thats to take down the world government
Dolfius has only just got back here, the Dolfius we have been talking to was an illusion the whole time

I used to state all the time that gear 5 can be a universal thing on this world. And then we got the Bonney moment. I’m ride or die on this train now 
Yeah same
the ideal one is that Imu is the wordly threat and Blackbeard is the pirate threat if you know what i mean
i wanted imu to be the final conflict cause that fits the story structure (in my mind) better
blackbeard goes down at laughtale, imu goes down with the WG
I just want them both to get their own dedicated individual time to shine
And not to sacrifice one in favor of the other
i always just viewed imu as more or less the physical form of the WG's corruption and evil, it was always going down but now it gives luffy something to punch
i just feel like, if Imu isn't the big bad at this point then what was the 800 years intrigue for?
More likely that whoever the victor is will also inherit the WG
Davy D. Jones is the REAL big bad
like, why didn't someone else defeat Imu in those 800 years if it didn't require Luffy for example
so true
Imu isn’t the only linchpin in that equation, not by a long shot
God the Davy clan stuff is so dumb
definitely feels like Nika will be the linchpin to defeat Imu, lol
i just really cant bring myself to be excited for or care for imu much more than this right now
I CARE
i care about Imu a lot more just because i think that Imu has much more mystery to be resolved
imu would blush if they heard that
like Imu is a seperate entity from the story we know atp
they've experienced so much, within such a wide gap
im interested in the mystery of what made them like this but thats about it
the biggest mystery with Blackbeard atp is just why he can eat two fruits
Domi Reversi also gives a practical answer to why the Navy puts up with the WGs evils
eh i dont really like the idea of the navy being forced into supporting them
Reminder that we go back to the 40 year old reindeer , bumsopp and the pervert in a couple chapters 💔
i prefer them falling for one big lie or its own natural corruption
All militaries are just the tools of the class in power. No different here
This flashback is top 5 one piece runs
It’s v good
GV > current day
thats a popular opinion right now yeah
And a nigga named Usopp 💔
and its not even close
Nah nah lemme stop
i wish i could be excited for rocks as you all are
Usopp is a future goat

I think people need to lower their expectations for the Elbaf finale
remember Eggheads?
Eggmid
It was fine
Usopp gonna end this arc with an 8,000 giant strong army under his command
GV is going to be the best part of Elbaf
ive got no clue what to exepct from the rest of elbaf now
mark my words
What has ussop done in the past 10 years irl
it already feels like we're at the climax
Thats why i said future
Future goat
Anything can happen
i haven’t brought this up in a minute but Usopp is still fs getting Kilingham’s fruit
you need the ancestor weapons
Saved the straw hats singlehandedly multiple times?
smh if its not a powerscaling feat it didnt happen you should know this
Just to STILL get negged by some fodder 😭✌️
maybe you need to be pure for not being domi reverse'd
Now this guy gets it
I expect 5 acoc clashes at minimum
Partner up with the commander in chief of the ninja samurai pirate mink alliance to turn the tides of the war by freeing the gifters from kaidos oppression
Usopp has done stuff since then, he just wasn't like the main focus, which I do think it's fair to think of as an issue, presentation matters too
I think it has to come at a moment of intense negative emotion like anger or despair
looking back at before we entered this flashback, it was too abrupt for me
the whole Gunko Imu thing
My guess is freedom counters, and Oda really emphasizes childlike freedom, so pureness tracks
like looking back on it
Just say he done nothing bru 😭🙏
This will fit nicely with needing to stay calm to use Haki too
binge reading elbaf will be interesting
yes i think so too, they are not mutual excludents
Elbaf will be peak on reread
yeah my opinion will probably change once i reread
“Yeah I’m an underwater ceramic technician” ahh
I never truly understand a character until I reread an arc
it'll be like Egghead where the outside world stuff is the highlight
I think
but Roger was pure too, Garp said... what did he not have?
the equiv of outside world content here is GV
We haven’t seen Roger v Domi yet
