[keen quiver]

Its like red said

[dense haven]

but as far as meaningful interactions go jinbe has plenty and some of them are the best of all shs

[glossy lotus]

I agree

[misty girder]

But that is the whole original point

[alpine trench]

one of the dumbest things i've read in this chat so far and i've read some dumb things here

[keen quiver]

He's more of strawhat than vivi ever was

[misty girder]

I wouldn't welcome vivi with open arms, idk why you would say that

[prisma idol]

According to my Y/N fanfic I am luffy's best friend and secret childhood friend, can I join the crew?

[glossy lotus]

Yes

[misty girder]

???

[hot cairn]

hell nah, I’m glad he doesn’t

[tranquil blade]

Dont talk about Sabo like that

[digital spear]

your WHAT

[misty girder]

Is shanks a straw hat now? He saved luffy's life

[cunning narwhal]

its a complaint i've had about the strawhats for a while, its just more apparent when you look back at someone like jinbe since he hasn't been on the crew that long

[prisma idol]

Y/N -> Your Name, i.e. self insert

[dense haven]

jinbe in mf to fmi just solidified him as the best strawhat for me, his character moments are unmatched then he's also goating in wci later

[urban kiln]

you would accept her

[digital spear]

holy shit weebcentral sucks so hard

[trim lily]

a little bit

[misty girder]

??? What does this have to do with the point?

Also I said imu brother

[urban kiln]

I misread that as "im a vivi gooner"

mb

LOL

[tranquil blade]

I remember I tried to use comick and almost got a virus

[digital spear]

LOOOOOOL

[wraith mantle]

Ok to be clear
I am not saying Jimbei isn’t a strawhat
I am just saying he doesn’t have the vibes. He doesn’t have any interesting dynamics or interactions or moments with most of the crew members

[hot cairn]

Jinbe doesnt feel like a strawhat now lol

[rare tangle]

Mosakoushi

[glossy lotus]

He’s literally the fish out of water, I think that’s the joke

[urban kiln]

wait a second.. "also..." So you acknowledge your feelings but you clarify on that particular statement

[hot cairn]

why?

[rare tangle]

Imu is gay

[misty girder]

??? It was originally a joke cuz nefertari in context

[prisma idol]

Uploads can be slow, chapters can be slow to load and its not the best design wise are things ive heard

[dense haven]

what actually consist of interesting dynamics to you?

[rare tangle]

[hot cairn]

dawg

[digital spear]

waiting for the pages to load for like 15 minutes now because I want to send something

its so over

[hot cairn]

it always works fine to me ngl

[alpine trench]

this is patently untrue like empirically untrue to a degree that's not even funny

[keen quiver]

Never had this issue ngl

[prisma idol]

So a YC skill issue

[keen quiver]

Website might be tweaking

[hot cairn]

I’ve never had that problem

[keen quiver]

Or its YC

[tranquil blade]

I think Jinbe feels like a strawhat, I just hope he gets a fair amount of "screentime" from here on. Honestly my only complaint about some of these larger scale arcs is the attention between characters get split so much some just barely get anything. Sometimes I like the slightly smaller scale arcs more for that reason

[digital spear]

GOOD FOR YOU.

[hot cairn]

LOL

[urban kiln]

turn off hardware acceleration on your browser. See if that helps

you have to fully close browser and reopen

after

[glossy lotus]

Is the Jinbe argument settled?

[tranquil blade]

I guess it just feels more personal when it's just the strawhats and a few other characters, probably my only real reason I prefer the pre-timeskip arcs

[urban kiln]

idk maybe

[tranquil blade]

but it's not completely gone now either, just diminished comparatively

[digital spear]

yes. Jinbei feels the most strawhat that ever strawhatted and whoever says otherwise is wrong

[urban kiln]

jinbe has the vibes bro his joke about brulee and the weird train guy being part of the number when he expresses how many allies they have to face big mom was really funny

[wraith mantle]

Yeah
Spice said slice of life stuff and I think he nailed it

[glossy lotus]

Realest shit ever

[misty girder]

Idk maybe its personal standards fo what people view as a valid straw hat

[hot cairn]

I think he meant vibes with the crew

[urban kiln]

yes I think that type of joke has crew vibes

[glossy lotus]

I feel like Jinbe has earned his spot. He’s gone above and beyond to earn his spot on this crew

[dense haven]

jinbe wasn't able to experience the adventure arcs from early one piece and oda will never doing that again

[urban kiln]

this one

[tranquil blade]

Which is unfortunate

[hot cairn]

that’s really funny

[urban kiln]

😭

hes holding him by the antler

[prisma idol]

Jimbei is so silly

[glossy lotus]

Jinbe sneaking food behind his back is a less known gag since Amazon Lily

I love him

[digital spear]

good enough gag ill take it

[misty girder]

He holding emergency rations in the front tho

[dense haven]

elbaf could've easily been an adventure arc tho but I'm just glad oda is rushing instead of exploring

[tranquil blade]

Hold on I completely forgot about this

lol

[trim lily]

the lego land part of elbaf feels so bizarre in retrospect

did oda just want that lego collab

[wraith mantle]

That was a fun segment

[unique lagoon]

heaven realm is real

[tranquil blade]

No I think Oda just wanted to have fun

[misty girder]

I expected elbaf to be like water 7 for usopp

[tranquil blade]

and there was some foreshadowing in there too

[trim lily]

uta urouge kid and shiki are all waiting up there

[hot cairn]

he was just feeling silly

[dense haven]

bro the lego colab it was just a big ass ad

[glossy lotus]

I believe it was a good set up to explore how a lot of the giants view the Nika situation.

[dense haven]

legoland

[digital spear]

ok it worked thanks

I wanted to say, why do people think a character who did stuff like this with the crew 15 years ago not feel like a crewmember yet

[urban kiln]

I also really miss having a strawhat that would just laugh about the antics of the rest of the crew instead of everyone being a straightman for each other.

Zoro used to find Luffy's bullshit funny and laugh like this. Since zoro became a stoic straightman, its really nice to have someone like jinbe back. Brook does it too, but brook does it in his goofy skulljoke manner.

[tranquil blade]

legoland is basically a microcosm of Elbaph as a whole, especially the underworld

[cunning narwhal]

at this rate oda's gonna explain in an sbs how its just the top of the tree and theres nothing special

[glossy lotus]

Yeah I love Jinbe man, tired of people disrespecting him

[unique lagoon]

lets talk about how high elbaf is

[misty girder]

I love jinbei too just wished we saw more of him

[glossy lotus]

We’ve seen plenty of him.

[urban kiln]

yup that too lol. A lot of good crew interactions. I think a lot of people forget fishman island exists

[trim lily]

pretty high

[unique lagoon]

yeah but i have some numbers

[misty girder]

Not compared to the rest of the crew

[hot cairn]

“Was that supreme king haki?” LMAO one of his funniest moments

[tranquil blade]

I mean can we really get much higher

[glossy lotus]

He’s the last member, no duh

[tranquil blade]

Foreshadowing btw

[misty girder]

Yeah but it's a bit of a large gap imo, I think its brook who came before him iirc? and we had a lot more time with him

[urban kiln]

one of the better crewmate jokes yeah lol. Even his willingness to laugh at the crews jokes is being straightmanned by nami

[unique lagoon]

so sky islands can only spawn at 10k meters above water not counting egghead ofc
balloon terminal was 10k and also skypiea
if theres already sky island clouds in sun realm then heaven realm is like 20k meters high

[hot cairn]

If Arsal was here he would say “forshadowing for Nerona Nami”

[wraith mantle]

That’s why some people think he feels less of a strawhat
Other members had more screen time together
Experienced crew drama moments like water 7 and enies lobby

[glossy lotus]

We’ve seen Jinbe in Impel Down, Marineford, and Post War. 3 arcs where none of the other crew members were in. In real time this was what? Like 3 years without the other straw hats or something?

We then had more time with him in FMI, WCI (where half of the crew was on Wano) and then Onigashima, Egghead, and Elbaph

[digital spear]

poor Jinbei lol

[tranquil blade]

Oh no I was making a reference to that one piece meme from the covid era

[glossy lotus]

Brook didn’t see that stuff. Is he any less of a straw hat?

[tranquil blade]

It's foreshadowing for Nami conquerors haki of course

[urban kiln]

"brook doesnt feel like a strawhat" discussion happened for a while too. Although that one feels a bit more reasonable since the crew split up the very next arc after his introduction

[glossy lotus]

Crew drama moments like Jinbe seeing Luffy’s reaction to Ace’s death? Pulling Luffy out of his depressive state? I feel like those more than make up that other stuff

[hot cairn]

LMAO yeah

[wraith mantle]

Brook has the silly crew vibes tho so he kinda fits and compensates for that

[misty girder]

I guess its also partly that jinbei never felt like a main character if that makes sense? There is at least one arc where each straw hat was kinda highlighted but it never felt the same for jinbei.

[glossy lotus]

Because we’ve gotten Jinbe’s character throughout MULTIPLE arcs, not just one. We’ve seen his origin, how he became who he is now, and what he learned from the Sun Pirates

[tranquil blade]

I will admit, I did not give Fishman Island the most fair chance the first time around. It's one of those arcs I probably do need to read instead of watching the anime at some point

[keen quiver]

That boy brook gets glazed these days

[urban kiln]

I dont think he felt any less of a main character than pre enies lobby robin, or brook.

But yeah, shirahoshi took the spotlight for Jinbe's big focus arc

[wraith mantle]

Wait was that actually a thing back when Brook joined?

[urban kiln]

it was a thing up until WCI

[glossy lotus]

being silly compensates for missing out on core crew moments?

[urban kiln]

Brook won people over in WCI

[misty girder]

This is kinda exactly what I'm saying, if jinbei took on a bit of fisher tiger's role he would feel a lot more like a real straw hat, thats just my opinion though

[wraith mantle]

See that only involved him and Luffy
I am talking about the entire crew as a whole

[digital spear]

im sure it happened for multiple strawhats at a certain point

[keen quiver]

They literally lose if brook isnt with them for whole cake

[unique lagoon]

brook also spoiled us that zoro has CoC

[wraith mantle]

Vibes ain’t an exact science
So yeah it can

[misty girder]

Prime lebron performance

[tranquil blade]

I honestly do think the anime was really bad for a lot of the timeskip arcs; definitely was not the best way to get through the series

[glossy lotus]

What core crew defining moments was Brook there for? I have some in my head but I’m curious to hear what you’ll say

[urban kiln]

idk, nami felt like a strawhat before arlong park even though she technically wasnt yet.

Its a tough discussion to have there

[glossy lotus]

That’s very inconsistent and heavily biased

[keen quiver]

@glossy lotus

[wraith mantle]

Need to reread fmi because I am sure Jimbei shined there

[keen quiver]

Literally there

[willow pollen]

Of course Ida gets the backstory mother disease

[misty girder]

True but thats because nami already had a strong camaderie imo

[willow pollen]

Like of course

[keen quiver]

His entire side quest to get the rubbings

[tranquil blade]

Yep

Tbf there was poison involved too

So at least it's not JUST disease

[willow pollen]

And Mosa is shirahoshi that theory was actually right

Amazing call

[keen quiver]

Also now getting focus again because of gunko

Since he's likely to snap her out of it

[misty girder]

Brook has a lot of thriller bark to himself to define him and then also had way more time than jinbei in terms of character interactions. he also has his classic laugh and gag, but that might not be relevant to what you are looking for.

[digital spear]

Fisher Tiger is a legendary figure that dies in a flashback and inspires a strawhat

[wraith mantle]

Sabaody
WCI
Binks sake but that may not count

[keen quiver]

https://tenor.com/view/soul-king-brook-one-piece-edit-anime-brooke-blox-fruits-roblox-gif-15610555480255388762

[misty girder]

I know, but I wish jinbei was a bit more involved in the flashback than hordy or fisher

[keen quiver]

Now elbaf

[glossy lotus]

What crew defining moments happened at WCI that’s comparable to the entire crew arguing on the Merry at W7?

[misty girder]

For example, luffy being inspired by shanks was cool, but his other backstory with asl made it way better

[digital spear]

I guess its hard if the flashback isnt about childhood

[keen quiver]

Brook getting a 2nd flashback that sanji treatment

[wraith mantle]

And tbf
Nami for example feels more of a strawhat than brook because she a strawhat longer and was there from the very beginning

[keen quiver]

You know oda loves your ass

[misty girder]

W7 was the pinnacle lowk nothing is prolly gonna get close from here on out in sheer character building

[keen quiver]

At that point

[digital spear]

im so ready

[glossy lotus]

I agree

[tranquil blade]

Well Brook has quite a lot he can offer with him being technically insanely old

[glossy lotus]

So then longevity is what constitutes how much of a straw hats you are?

[keen quiver]

Who the hell even hates brook

He's one of the most likable on the crew

[unique lagoon]

brook will clearly clash with nasujuro
both ice swordmen

[misty girder]

No she also had the arlong park arc

[keen quiver]

The panty joke is the only issue

[tranquil blade]

People who dont like the panties joke and define him as that joke

[misty girder]

I think every straw hat should have had at least one arc heavily about them is my point

[tranquil blade]

I dont love the joke personally but I know there's more to him

[misty girder]

Jinbei was overshadowed in his own flashback, felt like Oda was tryna go in too many directions

[wraith mantle]

Longevity
Being involved in important crew moments like water 7 and EL
Vibes

It’s a multi variable equation

[glossy lotus]

Brook only has vibes then. That’s an inconsistent thing to base how “worthy” someone is to be a crewmate

And not fair to Jinbe

[unique lagoon]

crazy how yall gate keeping what a strawhat is

[glossy lotus]

Jinbe is as much of a straw hat as Brook is

[misty girder]

No one is gatekeeping anything, the point is that jinbei doesn't feel as straw hatty as the other straw hats

I like jinbei more than some of the straw hats in fact

He just doesn't feel much like a straw hat idk

[glossy lotus]

I think you should watch Melontee’s video on Jinbe

I think you’ll see what I see

[misty girder]

Ok i'll do that when I have time

[wraith mantle]

What’s it about

[misty girder]

jinbei probably...

[wraith mantle]

Just jimbei or a specific thing about him

[misty girder]

Probably a character analysis

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1w7YFnZL2Uk

is it this? @glossy lotus

[glossy lotus]

Yes

[misty girder]

alr

thats 33 mins imma watch it later bro

[glossy lotus]

I think it does a good job at explaining how I feel. Jinbe’s backstory and focus, while it may not be directly in one arc, is told over a series of arcs in preparation for his joining of the crew

[wraith mantle]

Hmm

Will bookmark it

[glossy lotus]

I know, it’s long. But I think it’s very put together

[keen quiver]

We love brook

[glossy lotus]

I love all the straw hats equally

[wraith mantle]

Yeah she’s a pretty good content creator

[willow pollen]

He has not don’t shit for the past 500 chapters 😭

[misty girder]

Yeah I don't personally share that view

[glossy lotus]

L take

[misty girder]

as characters

[keen quiver]

Don't come back when he saves everyone via soul music

[wraith mantle]

I like Luffy more

[keen quiver]

Don't come back when the 2nd backstory hits

Unlike ussop...these things will happen

[misty girder]

Praying on second backstory

[misty girder]

Usopp getting his character dev stolen in his own arc

[urban kiln]

seems like hes gonna start getting a bit more focus soon because of recent hints

from how whats her name is a fan etc

[tranquil blade]

Gunko

[misty girder]

Completely forgot gunko was a fan ngl

[tranquil blade]

Well she's a fan and it seems implied that she met Brook during her childhood

Even a small chance Brook is her father

[misty girder]

How would she be a cd then?

[tranquil blade]

Though probably not by blood

[misty girder]

I'm p sure her dad is a manmayer

[misty girder]

Oh ok

[willow pollen]

Completely forgot about that story line

[urban kiln]

easy to forget with a year of flashbacks

[willow pollen]

Yes and everyone thought it would show up now

[tranquil blade]

Longest flashback in the series yet

[willow pollen]

Maybe there’s another flashback later

[misty girder]

And it's so peak imo

[willow pollen]

It really is so good

[tranquil blade]

I think this flashback is gonna end with the castle incident. Idk if Oda will show everything Loki does after until later

[willow pollen]

How long ago was the castle incident

[tranquil blade]

14 years ago

[urban kiln]

its only been like 14 chapters tbf but there have been more breaks this year than most years iirc

[willow pollen]

Lokis been chained up all that time right? I forgot

[tranquil blade]

No he was gone between 14 and 6 years ago before being beaten by Shanks and brought back to Elbaph

He's been chained ever since he was brought back to Elbaph though

[urban kiln]

actually, this flashback passed the oden flashback

with literally this chapter

[tranquil blade]

Yeah it just hit the longest, I was anticipating it when I realized Oda was actually gonna show the God Valley incident in almost it's entirety

[urban kiln]

very funny how many people were hyping up the cliffhanger of roger and garp vs rocks. I said "its gonna fastforward to his death next chapter" like oda often does with flashback fights

and lo and behold

[misty girder]

Goda for showing as much of the fight as he wanted to, hope the anime does it justice

[tranquil blade]

I knew it wouldnt be a long fight at least, Oda is never gonna do a super drawn out fight in a flashback to the degree of say Luffy vs Kaido or something

[urban kiln]

this is the only downside of oda intentionally leaving fights out of flashbacks

toei doesnt understand scaling bro...

they fill it in with bullshit..

[misty girder]

Yeah I hope toei gets it right this is actually important

[urban kiln]

I dont think its actually important

its jsut annoying for discussion more than anything

[tranquil blade]

I mean it's kind of fun sometimes lol but toei does a lot of crazy shit too, Zoro vs King looked like a clash between emperors in the anime

[sage temple]

Loki breaking records with his flashback

[urban kiln]

I hate arguing with people that use the anime as evidence

for anything

[misty girder]

Yeah I just want to watch the anime to get hyped about the fight

garp vs aokiji was cool for example, but I think they changed garp's attacks for anime

Garp was using shockwaves in manga and in the anime they had him dropping actual explosive looking power

[tranquil blade]

It's really funny when the actual animators of the episodes start putting in their two cents as well

[sturdy steeple]

Oh yeah, this flashback is a long one

[tranquil blade]

Like I think Vincent Chansard was talking about Luffy vs Kizaru and said something like "I'm pretty sure Luffy didn't use conquerors haki in that fight" or something like that

[ruby moat]

yea he said the only time he uses aconq was white star gun

[sage temple]

Didn't Vincent say he was excited for Loki and Rocks

[tranquil blade]

Yeah

[sturdy steeple]

I wonder if it’s gonna be the longest or void century gonna surpass that

[sage temple]

Nice I'm glad we got something cooking

[sage temple]

Yeah there are some other potential longer ones

[tranquil blade]

Animator headcanon vs regular reader headcanon

[keen quiver]

Best sitting animation money can buy

Followed by getting stabbed

[sage temple]

Fr

[tranquil blade]

Void century I feel is pretty likely to surpass it

[keen quiver]

I wouldnt get hyped till after the flashback

[sage temple]

Followed by summoning a bolt of lightning at 1hp

[keen quiver]

For loki atleast

[sage temple]

Followed by destroying an entire village singlehandedly

[keen quiver]

Oda just has him talking

[tranquil blade]

I could see the Void Century taking upwards of 25 chapters to cover

[keen quiver]

After all of GV

[sturdy steeple]

I also think that but who knows

[sage temple]

Yeah

[keen quiver]

Which i think most anime online will see as tame in comparison

After the rocks fight

😭

[sage temple]

Followed by Loki basically killing someone with the Abyss powers

[keen quiver]

Who ?

[sage temple]

Harald

[keen quiver]

Domi reversi doesnt give you regen

From the look of it

[sage temple]

It gives you an undying body

Read the story

[tranquil blade]

lol

[keen quiver]

So not regen

Ok

[sage temple]

Immortality

[keen quiver]

Literally saw Brother's hand never grow back

[urban kiln]

void century will pass it. The current flashback has a lot of established lore and characters filling in the blanks. Void century flashback will be constantly introducing new things exclusively. And even the returning characters will need their stories individually fleshed out (zunesha, joyboy, robot guy)

[keen quiver]

Just pieced back together

[sage temple]

Domi Reversi still gives them some Abyss powers

[keen quiver]

Arm still just floating

[sage temple]

Imu calls it the power of evil or whatever

Thats basically abyss powers

[keen quiver]

Yeah I just dont think its regen

Abyss power a separate thing

[sage temple]

If the Mural actually shows the Void Century instead of the future I'm excited to see the Loki look-alike back then

[tranquil blade]

Void century will already have a lot to cover with just Joyboy, Davy and Imu. Let alone Joyboy's crew and the ancient kingdom and Lili and the 20 kingdoms

[sturdy steeple]

Well, it works the same way

Seems so at least

[sage temple]

Is it tho?

[keen quiver]

To regen ?

Considering domi reversi doesnt give you regen

Id say its different

[urban kiln]

we dont need lookalikes for everyone. We dont need everyone to be reincarnations of existing characters from the void century. Inherited will is enough alone

[sturdy steeple]

It does though?

[sage temple]

This is definitely Abyss related

The Abyss powers aren't just regen

[keen quiver]

Id say it is but your arm doesnt grow back

[sturdy steeple]

He got his arm shot before regeneration so it didn’t regenerate.

[keen quiver]

Which is why I'm saying they dont get regen

[sturdy steeple]

I meant before he got his powers

[sage temple]

Well his hand regained function

[tranquil blade]

The thing is that idk if any of the regen powers can heal wounds dealt before they are actually granted immortality

[sage temple]

It was able to be used by him

[tranquil blade]

Which might be why Brogy's arm is just floating there

[sturdy steeple]

The same way Gorosei still have scars

[keen quiver]

Rocks had a haki force field

So hard to tell wtf was going on with his body

[sage temple]

Injuries just don't affect them

It's kinda like Buggy

[alpine trench]

https://x.com/pewpiece/status/1994367076048527698?t=woCrx6l-nnjfMW4CCHLayQ&s=33 have you all seen this

THE OFFICIAL COLORING FOR HARLEY MURAL

X · Nov 28, 2025, 11:25 AM

[sage temple]

Peak

[sturdy steeple]

Yeah, it’s amazing

[urban kiln]

what do they mean official

[tranquil blade]

It's official merch

Idk if it means Oda colored it tho

[urban kiln]

then its not official coloring

[tranquil blade]

Probably not

[alpine trench]

It’s from an exhibition iirc

[strong wadi]

I mean, looks like if you blow them to smithereens, they'd be down and dead

[urban kiln]

not that it matters anyway

its just a glowing light on dark ink

[strong wadi]

Well, clearly we see the robotic figure is in 🇺🇸 colors which represents franky, so that's a confirmation

[sturdy steeple]

Okay?

[tranquil blade]

There's really not much color to talk about there I guess, but it's interesting

[sage temple]

Wait Domi Reversi does grant regen

What am I thinking

Rocks regenerated

[sturdy steeple]

Well yeah

I thought we established that lol

You don’t regenerate your injures that you got before abyss powers.

Hence Dorry’s hand did not regenerate.

[tranquil blade]

Insteresting he can still kinda use his hand at least

[sturdy steeple]

Magic

Quite literally

[sage temple]

Yeah

So his injury basically didn't affect him

[sturdy steeple]

But it sucks knowing we have yet another armless character lol

[trim lily]

dorry’s arm is just that mighty

[sage temple]

Even more of a feat Loki killing Harald is

[tranquil blade]

That mighty ass arm

Imu really took it off

[sage temple]

The mightiest some might say

[sturdy steeple]

Oh wait, my bad, it’s Brogy

But yeah, his duel with Dorry is over

[tranquil blade]

At least it wasn't Dorry who lost his arm...

[sturdy steeple]

I agree….

[trim lily]

i wonder if dorry has any mighty appendages

[ruby moat]

wehat?

[sturdy steeple]

Tbh if I were Brogy I’d make a cool ass axe arm in the future

[tranquil blade]

Well since Brogy has his mighty arm, surely Dorry has his equivalent

[sturdy steeple]

So not everything is lost

[trim lily]

stealing captain morgan’s whole flow

[digital spear]

Leg

[royal latch]

Anybody else notice this suprise zombie from thriller bark look 😒 familiar

[tranquil blade]

Dorry's mighty knee

[sturdy steeple]

Wait??? Two 56????

There’s another fruit that fits the 5-6 pattern as legendary as Gomu fruit? Goda??????

[trim lily]

add 2 to 5 then swap the numbers…

[ruby moat]

franky??

[digital spear]

Inu and Neko are Dorry and Broggy as minks so Dorry lost his leg like Inu

[tranquil blade]

He hasnt lost it yet

[digital spear]

He did offscreen

[sturdy steeple]

Dorry is fine aye

Don’t talk shit about him.

[digital spear]

?

Im just saying what happened

[tranquil blade]

Dorry was the toughest giant we had for decades

[digital spear]

*Broggy

[sturdy steeple]

Loki or Hajrudin might take his leg sadly

[royal latch]

i was thinking someone else

[trim lily]

toughest giant was mr 3 level

[ruby moat]

oh buggy

[strong wadi]

I mean, mr 3 can no diff seastone handcuffs. I'd like to see Luffy do that

[tranquil blade]

It looks like Franky when he got his face blown off

[trim lily]

i feel bad for the photographer of this

they for sure died shortly after taking the photo

[tranquil blade]

What was the point in hiding Xebec's bounty

There had to be a reason surely

[digital spear]

Oh yeah lol

[trim lily]

oh yeah we still don’t know it

[tranquil blade]

Maybe his bounty has a meaninh

[digital spear]

Oda sometimes really just hates and despises us

[tranquil blade]

Some number pun thing

[misty girder]

Nah it might be a bit more serious

[strong wadi]

He can't powerscale xebec too early

[misty girder]

Sengoku didn't show rocks's bounty either to the marines when he showed rogers and whitebeards

[royal latch]

him too

[misty girder]

It's a bit suspicioous

[digital spear]

"You DONT get his bounty because FUCK you"

[tranquil blade]

Well he can always just pull the bounty inflation excuse

[trim lily]

i don’t think he had it on hand lol

xebec kinda got erased from history

[misty girder]

I mean I guess

But for such a major figure I'm sure the former fleet admiral could scrape through some data

[tranquil blade]

Could you imagine if adjusted for inflation Xebec's bounty is like just 3 billion

[digital spear]

Yes

[misty girder]

inflation scaling 🥀

[trim lily]

500 million bounty xebec

the WG was very stingy back then

[misty girder]

Yeah oda can't win either way

if he makes it ultra low ppl wouldn't understand and might think hes a fraud or something but if he makes it too high, the inflation would make it higher than rogers

[royal latch]

Buggy lookin' more like nika than rocks tho

[misty girder]

After this flashback i doubt buggy is rocks's secret son

[trim lily]

oda desperate to show off his cool dance every dozen chapters

[misty girder]

Rocks doesn't seem the type to abandon his kid no matter what

[digital spear]

Buggy is Joyboys descendant now

[tranquil blade]

Find out that literally every single Rocks pirate that did not die like a decade after GV surpassed him

[tranquil blade]

Even Wang Zhi

[trim lily]

wang zhi w

[digital spear]

Streusen became stronger than Rocks

[tranquil blade]

I mean at one point

He's pretty old now

[trim lily]

i bet rocks couldnt make a cake like him

if he ever challenged streussen to a davy back fight and it had a bake off hes done for

[tranquil blade]

Okay maybe we can make an exception for Streusen

[digital spear]

Stussy > Rocks
Gloriosa > Rocks

[tranquil blade]

Okay maybe I didnt think this through

[digital spear]

Its too late

[misty girder]

If rocks's bounty comes out it should be around whitebeards imo

around 5b, maybe with a classic oda number pun

[trim lily]

he definitely did enough to warrant it

[digital spear]

69

[alpine trench]

It’s probably wiped off

[digital spear]

Rokku means 69

[misty girder]

😭

[alpine trench]

Rocks no longer exists in record so his bounty doesn’t either

[misty girder]

True, but I'm sure higher ups have access to rocks's info

by higher ups I mean top ppl in the navy or wg

Like if akainu wanted rocks's bounty value I don't see why they would deny him

[digital spear]

[unique lagoon]

so where do you guys think this place is

[trim lily]

probably a deeper part of mariejois

[dense haven]

any shanks haters in chat

[tranquil blade]

Somewhere on the red line but probably a fair distance away from Pangea Castle

[trim lily]

funny to think even mariejois probably has its own class system too

[misty girder]

😭

[unique lagoon]

thats what i think its somewhere else in the redline

[tranquil blade]

Do we know how big Mariejois as a whole is

[misty girder]

Yeah garling seems to be higher than the avg celestial dragon

[unique lagoon]

not really we dont really get a proper shot of marygeoise

[misty girder]

Even before his gorosei status

[trim lily]

the knights in general seem better educated and trained

[tranquil blade]

It seems collosal either way, like maybe one of the biggest countries on the planet

[misty girder]

In the future when the straw hats fight there or whatever we'd prolly get one of those situation maps

[tranquil blade]

Maybe THE biggest

[unique lagoon]

i think even during revos attack we barely saw the place

[keen quiver]

God this guy got no promotion at all for those years ?

😭

Wtf

[tranquil blade]

Yeah we kinda just saw a generic neighborhood being destroyed

[misty girder]

Harald such a fraud

[trim lily]

i hope we get to see more of mariejois when its not being attacked later

CD culture seems interesting

[keen quiver]

"I want slaves wah wah wah"

[misty girder]

I don't think they rly have a culture

[keen quiver]

Is what it is mostly

[tranquil blade]

I mean he probably is treated as lesser than the others tbh, since he's not only not a celestial dragon by blood but also is a giant

[keen quiver]

Let's be real

27 years and its mostly about slavery

And exploitation

[misty girder]

cd culture is just hedonism

[trim lily]

yeah but we've already seen some interesting quirks like them treating the Ds as horror stories to scare kids

im curious how they get raised or the education they get

[tranquil blade]

Like despite Harald being of the god's steel rank I could still see even a regular celestial dragon be treated better by the knights or gorosei, just cause he's not of their blood

[misty girder]

Unfortunately I doubt this happens cuz its not relevant to main plot like will of D was

[trim lily]

harald seems to be treated decently well here

[misty girder]

Harald strengthwise is way beyond his actual rank, they just wanted to appease him imo

[misty girder]

Only cuz he's the king of elbaf and immensely strong on his own

[keen quiver]

We literally catch the average person saying they want him as a slave

[trim lily]

well

[dense haven]

their education is mostly propaganda to keep them brainwashed

[keen quiver]

The knights are just being cordial and paying lip service

He already bent the knee

For years

Even Sommers is baffled

[misty girder]

Nah but knights dont usually pay lip service, he's def being treated better than what others might expect

[tranquil blade]

I mean he's not treated badly per say, but I feel he probably is being looked down upon behind closed doors and he's clearly falling for the world's most obvious ruse

[keen quiver]

"You'll listen to us even if you're king of elbaf"

[dense haven]

the holy knights are picked from the buffoons based on their aptitudes

[keen quiver]

You can tell he's just confused

[trim lily]

yeah after a reread its kinda obvious

[keen quiver]

A slave is a slave

[misty girder]

Yes but celestial dragons treat their slaves horrifically usually, and harald isn't exactly a slave

[keen quiver]

So in the end any perceived treatment is just that

Perception

[misty girder]

One of the celestial dragons said they want harald as a slave, implying he isn't currently a slave

[keen quiver]

Slave to the world government

[misty girder]

Yeah true

[keen quiver]

And the will of the gorosei

[dense rapids]

I didn’t even peep Gaven

[keen quiver]

But a slave regardless

[misty girder]

I wonder if oda is making harald look bad on purpose to make his death a bit sympathetic

[tranquil blade]

Like the knights consistently question why it's even happening. Garling asks himself what Imu is planning with it, and Sommers is even a little confused by his obedience. They're just going along with the plan so he doesnt crash out and leave

[misty girder]

I expected harald to be headstrong against wg and assasinated via domi reversi cuz of that

[trim lily]

its meant to be a bit tragic for harald

[keen quiver]

I have zero sympathy for harald

He a grown ass man

He knew what he was getting into

[trim lily]

he had good intentions but he was too desperate to get it all done

a bit too good for this world and the people hes dealing with

[keen quiver]

He's a naive fool that got himself killed and almost destroyed the culture of his country.

[tranquil blade]

I thought last chapter he was pretty pathetic but this is definitely an even lower low for Harald

[trim lily]

i wish we got some more introspection from harald

it feels kind of weird hes just ignoring anything bad the WG might do

[keen quiver]

If it wasn't for loki existing harald would have wiped out elbaf and they'd all be slaves to the celestials

[dense haven]

the smartest and most loyal cd are the ones who climb the ranks

[unique lagoon]

all this flashback and herald still haven't mentioned the DF

[trim lily]

like surely hes seen slaves here

[keen quiver]

Absolutely zero sympathy

Everyone forgets if loki isnt there the domi reversi sticks and all of elbaf is conquered

[dense haven]

most cds are inbred dumbasses so it's quite easy to stand out

[misty girder]

Harald is so frustrating to watch cuz he prolly thinks he's doing the right thing too

[crude trellis]

Possibly Harald wanted a doctor for ida

[misty girder]

He's on the celestial dragon kool aid himself despite rocks warning him

[keen quiver]

Rocks told his ass and harald has seen how evil they are

[trim lily]

harald doesnt know shes sick

[tranquil blade]

Rocks would literally be sick to his stomach seeing what Harald is doing now

[trim lily]

gonna be in for an unfortunate return

[keen quiver]

But it seems he wants to get fucked over himself before he realizes

[dense haven]

harald is a fraud

[tranquil blade]

Yeah they're the few competent celestial dragons

[keen quiver]

Harald is just naive to a fault and way way way too trusting

Of people thinking him being genuine means anything to celestials

Or the government

[tranquil blade]

Harald should know how bad these guys are is the thing

[frozen aspen]

ida will die while harald is busy doing tge wg dirty work

[keen quiver]

To them he's a fool and a good slave to sick on pirates

[tranquil blade]

Like does he not see them dragging slaves around?

[trim lily]

i think ida's death will be the tipping point for harald to realize he's sacrificed too much

and then that leads into the castle incident

[frozen aspen]

nah i bet he'll continue after she dies too

[keen quiver]

"That won't happen to my country once my work is done. We will be free to live and not become slaves"

[dense haven]

his naivete is weird because he instantly noticed something was weird with shanks

[keen quiver]

He thinks they wont fuck him over

[frozen aspen]

loki gotta put this guy down asap

[misty girder]

"Bro we elbaf the world government won't possibly hurt us" terrible mistake

[trim lily]

we could really use a few panels of introspection from harald

[frozen aspen]

i think thats bc he has seen shanks before

[trim lily]

like its absurd he isnt aware of his situation at this point

[tranquil blade]

"The leopards wont eat my face but they'll do it to everyone else"

[keen quiver]

THIS

[dense haven]

oda will not skip roger in elbaf

[frozen aspen]

so he was confused when he met shamrock tgere and then shanks aswell

[dense haven]

new flashback soon

[strong wadi]

Dw it's all an act, that's why he can see through Shanks' act

[misty girder]

wdym?

[unique lagoon]

roger landed in elbaf

well ofc he did

but spice wants to see it

[tranquil blade]

If it's an act it's a pretty good one

because it's fooling even us the readers

At least it fools me

[misty girder]

"It's an act" and he's breaking ppl's ships on panel

[frozen aspen]

i doubt its an act

[dense haven]

adam give up

take the L

[strong wadi]

The event of 14 years ago sadly happens because they finally saw through harald's act

[trim lily]

an act so good hes even fooled himself

[keen quiver]

Harald is killing people and doing things

[frozen aspen]

we see hom act like this outside interacting with tge wg

[dense haven]

shanks is HIM

[frosty saddle]

How long will be king harald backstory , it's been 15 chapters now

[keen quiver]

He's not faking shit

[trim lily]

we've got at least 2 more chapters

[frozen aspen]

16 more

[trim lily]

its not harald's fault rocks hijacked it for half of those

[unique lagoon]

https://tenor.com/view/hand-on-shoulder-cooked-don’t-worry-i-got-you-i-gotchu-gif-4936672249793081179

[keen quiver]

Minimum 5 more chaps of this

[strong wadi]

Sometimes double agents have to do bad things to keep up the act

[keen quiver]

Keep up the act lmao

[surreal flame]

It's prolly gonna stretch to 3 more chapters

[strong wadi]

(Unfortunately I am joking and dont believe the past few comments ive typed)

[misty girder]

He's doing bad things only to get no promotions

[unique lagoon]

not wrong

[dense haven]

https://tenor.com/dSty1LND41W.gif

[keen quiver]

Smart man

[frozen aspen]

yeah 2 at least and if oda gets into what loki was up to after his death it could be 3/4

[trim lily]

we better see loki's life

we've come this far you can spend a few more chapters

[unique lagoon]

herald might just die next chapter

[keen quiver]

Nah

Way too soon

[frozen aspen]

idk about that

[unique lagoon]

what else is missing

[tranquil blade]

I think two chapters from now the incident begins

[trim lily]

the incident is gonna happen at the end of the next chapter

then he dies in 2

[surreal flame]

wasn't the flashback supposed to say how loki killed harald🫠🫠

[frozen aspen]

we skipped to one year before his death

[dense haven]

rip bozo

[misty girder]

harald should take a few chapters to die, we need to see aftermath of village, harald returning, and then who kills harald and why

[unique lagoon]

well herald will come back and see 2nd wife dead

[strong wadi]

If we see Shanks 1 shot Loki on screen, i'll be so conflicted. Good because Socrates will be in shambles but bad because it means shanks is getting more hype

[formal wagon]

the incident = eggheads well lets just say.... basically.... well........ decmber basically end so yeah

[tranquil blade]

I just realized he really did never go up in rank over 9 years

[frozen aspen]

I wouldn't be suprised if next chapter opens up with the castle incident

[trim lily]

shanks has proved himself finally interesting so i wont mind him getting a bit more hype

[formal wagon]

hardstuck bronze 💀

[unique lagoon]

im still waiting on heralds prophesy of his son killing him
did he got that from fish man island?

[dense haven]

shanks is HIM

[unique lagoon]

[formal wagon]

this reminds me of a tyler one clip

[tranquil blade]

I dont get the reference sorry

[surreal flame]

That's a thing..?

[trim lily]

vaguely

[formal wagon]

rank like in video game

[trim lily]

but it was probably just something estrid's village made up

theyre like that

[tranquil blade]

Oh yeah

[unique lagoon]

yeah the people said it was prophesized that his son will kill him

[frozen aspen]

estrid was the one saying that...

[tranquil blade]

It's almost 3

[trim lily]

3am gang

[unique lagoon]

but loki did kill his dad

sooo

[frozen aspen]

wtf go to back

bed

[sage temple]

This could be it

[trim lily]

i already messed up my sleep schedule

so no

[sage temple]

I remember people saying that was just a coincidence 🙄 people hate to see Loki win

[trim lily]

it was

[tranquil blade]

Ughhh maybe I should I'm starting to really feel it

[misty girder]

I'm ngl its feeling like a domi reversi murder

[trim lily]

estrid can not in fact see the future

[misty girder]

Harald prolly switched up and got slimed out

[keen quiver]

@tranquil blade

Yeah its a fact

[sage temple]

Estrid isn't confirmed to have made that prophecy

[unique lagoon]

well there is a giant circle in the throne room so sure

[trim lily]

but she fully believed in it, thats enough for me

[tranquil blade]

Ugfhhhh he's so shit

[frozen aspen]

estrid just made rhis shit up the plot is why it happens anyway

[sage temple]

That doesn't mean Estrid can see the future

[surreal flame]

Umm...I just wanna see sanji get some kinda buff atp

[sage temple]

She just believed in someone that can see the future

[strong wadi]

Dw, im sure there are some readers that think toki saw the future with her prophecy

[frozen aspen]

but she was in fact not having a prophecy when she shouted that nonsense

[sage temple]

Why would Estrid say "there was a prophecy" if it's her prophecy

[unique lagoon]

maybe herald and estrid went to FMI one time

[sage temple]

Sure she said it while shouting nonsense but the prophecy itself came true

[keen quiver]

I'm clowning on harald but the chapter was great tbh @sage temple

[sage temple]

Harald deserved to die

[trim lily]

i like to imagine they pulled a "dont worry harald just one more pirate and we'll up your rank" for 15 years in a row

[keen quiver]

Seems this mf oda got some sleep finally

[sage temple]

There's no break next week

[unique lagoon]

herald def one of the greatest blunder in OP history
next to ace and oden

[keen quiver]

I meant sleep as in he's writing better again

[sage temple]

Oh

[misty girder]

Just reread it and funnily enough they never even offer to actually induct him and raise his level, they hard capped him at 'right hand of the god's knights'

[sage temple]

Yeah I fw how he's been doing the silhouettes this flashback

[blazing depot]

Bets for next chapter?

More Loki suffering I think

[trim lily]

shiki will be in it

[sage temple]

Lol

As per usual

[misty girder]

ofc

[unique lagoon]

im almost numb to all the depression oda keeps throwing at me

[trim lily]

kuma flashback moment

[strong wadi]

Well, Ida should die and we'll probably start the Harald throne room part

[blazing depot]

https://tenor.com/view/shiki-golden-lion-dr-indigo-gold-lion-one-piece-gif-20290971

[trim lily]

i cant wait to not learn about the legendary fruit

[blazing depot]

Brother knows how to dance

[unique lagoon]

loki lost his idol
lost his mom
lost his dog
give the man a break oda

[prisma idol]

[blazing depot]

Hannyabal had the saddest backstory he got played by that lady prisoner

[trim lily]

woah its wide

[surreal flame]

Bro lost his hammer too

[unique lagoon]

well he got a better one

[misty girder]

Oda had loki chained up for years and cooked by shanks too lmao

[blazing depot]

It’s filler but it’s PEAK

[unique lagoon]

oh right got denied by lola also

[prisma idol]

Sounds like a skill issue

[strong wadi]

He still gotta hit a couple more sad beats if he wants to attempt to be a top 5 flashback

[sage temple]

Next chapter predictions:

Harald comes back to save Ida
Loki reaction to Ida's health getting worse and eventually dying
At the end we get more context on Harald and the WG as the castle incident is about to start

[trim lily]

i swear we better see that lola interaction this flashback

[prisma idol]

[misty girder]

Just realized the celestial dragons might not know shanks was on roger's crew at flashback point

[unique lagoon]

thats the only way oda can make a flashback "good"
make it depressing

[blazing depot]

Oh yeah I think we’ll see Harald’s “mistake” next chapter

[misty girder]

Can't even refute this lowk

[prisma idol]

Dolfius my hope for more extended Loki stuff post Castle incident keeps going down with each chapter

My hope is almost gone

[blazing depot]

Who had a happy flashback where nothing bad happened

[formal wagon]

I CANT FIND IT

[sage temple]

Lost his Idol
Lost his mom
Was forced to kill his own father
100+ giants died around him at 16
Lost almost all his pets
Lost Lola
Now Mosa is at risk of being lost

[tranquil blade]

wow

[formal wagon]

its a clip where he's playing overwatch and some guy says "well i think i'm a lot better at video games than i am at life" and tyler ONE says "well that sucks cause you're silver"

[blazing depot]

Is it the one where he’s like “I’m addicted and I can’t quit”

[unique lagoon]

oda literally a 1 trick writer

smh

[misty girder]

closest is prolly katakuri lmao at least compared to others

[prisma idol]

Not really

[formal wagon]

its so fucking funny someone in silver said that 😭

[blazing depot]

I mean he got bullied and his sister got beat up too

[sage temple]

Tradgedy = better flashback is the dumbest rule the Op community has made up

[tranquil blade]

what does he even do now i havent heard from him in years

[misty girder]

Yeah thats why i said better than others

[formal wagon]

i don't know. i don't watch him i just like that one clip..

[frozen aspen]

The flashbacks all ending tragicly makes sense if you consider that they are usually tied to a situation where things are pretty bad in the current day

[blazing depot]

Maybe Don Krieg had a happy and normal childhood

[formal wagon]

but its gone and so is joy in the world

[unique lagoon]

oden started out as feel good
then went depreso mode

[misty girder]

Yeah oda uses flashbacks exclusively to inspire luffy to act in a certain way

[unique lagoon]

why not reverse that oda u bum

[tranquil blade]

Oh…

[blazing depot]

Wow it’s almost like they’re a narrative device that serves a purpose

[formal wagon]

i... didn't... mean ... to ellipses.... i just... accidently... clicked.......... the period tice...

[prisma idol]

Also Happy flashbacks arent really important

[frozen aspen]

its basically background lore. Luffy ends up in a situation where the entire country is getting cooked and oda goes "let's turn back time to see how it got cooked"

[prisma idol]

As they dont really do much for the conflict of the arc

[formal wagon]

she device on my narrative till i serve a purpose

[blazing depot]

Yeah writing 101 is that conflict is the center of any story

[formal wagon]

okay please pin this 🥹

[prisma idol]

I cant tell if this is sarcasm or not

[blazing depot]

It’s true

I learned it in English class

[misty girder]

wdym

Sounds pretty standard to me

[formal wagon]

theres no one to bm with sarcasm there

[trim lily]

no big moming

[surreal flame]

Love the lore though

[prisma idol]

One piece has mid lore

[unique lagoon]

its too late now to make a happy flashback
the readers are already addicted to being sad

wtf oda i wanted to feel bad reading this

[blazing depot]

I mean backstories provide conflict

[misty girder]

what purpose would a happy flashback serve?

[trim lily]

we need to up the tragedy stakes with each successive flashback

[strong wadi]

Skill issue on your part

[blazing depot]

And character motivation

[surreal flame]

elaborate

[prisma idol]

I dont think i will

[sage temple]

No yall just think like cavemen bro

[blazing depot]

How would a happy flashback enrich the current story?

[sage temple]

Ooo his family died good good

[unique lagoon]

i just want to see if oda can make a good flashback thats happy

[prisma idol]

My steaks.... they've returned

[sage temple]

Ooo wow was he slave? supa nice amazing #1 flashback ever

[misty girder]

I'm sure he could but like whats the purpose?

[unique lagoon]

for my own satisfaction

[formal wagon]

gill bastar had a bounty of 87 billion

[trim lily]

yeah

[formal wagon]

tbhats real btw

Who suffered the most in their flashback

[formal wagon]

usopp

[ruby moat]

Mailbox SPITTING

[formal wagon]

on my tuah shit ig

[unique lagoon]

luffys flashback was so close being happy
then sabo "died"

[trim lily]

usopp is like the kuma of zoro-likes

[blazing depot]

Kuma probably had the most painful flashback

[formal wagon]

im sorry i said that i think

[prisma idol]

Sabo isn't real

[misty girder]

Unpopular opinion but kyros is up there, if it wasn't constantly spammed in the anime

[formal wagon]

no one ccalled him a liar though

[blazing depot]

Kyros is underrated too

[unique lagoon]

sabo is imus demon sleeper agent
this is real

[prisma idol]

Thats Oda's OC and he made him for his Post TS fanfic, one where luffy didn't die at msrineford

[formal wagon]

the bad ending

[dry hamlet]

based off brookes life and his unexplored past and trauma, probably him sitting on that boat for all those years thinking of nothing but that, only having music to occupy him

[ruby moat]

This reminds me of the meme from back in the day where it’s like

In the bad way?

[strong wadi]

I’m too lazy on mobile but just find fatsumo’s challenge account by searching “tournament” in events and then clicking his username on that site and searching by tournament. You can see what the server voted as best flashback

[sage temple]

There is no bad way

[prisma idol]

Wait do you mean meek or meeks

[sage temple]

Meeks plural

[blazing depot]

Funny thing is that I saw that the Law making up his flashback meme is mainstream

I saw it on a fallout shitpost today

fake law flashback was pretty funny tho

She's a bit special

[sage temple]

Neither has Saturn

[formal wagon]

maybe she's old as hell under that mask i guess

her being a brook fan already made her the goat

He's a gorosei

[ruby moat]

Crazy we got a pipe from Chicago

[sage temple]

Oh you're right

Silly me

Lol we gonna see more of her

[late compass]

Could be that she has a deep deep sea contract like the elders probably do

[sage temple]

Sommers looks to have aged since then

Shamrock too ngl

[ruby moat]

Go bears amirite 🙏

[formal wagon]

yeah but gunko likely doesn't have the deep deep contract. It seems like she just has the same kind shanks and harold have because they're all called god's steel or wtv

[blazing depot]

He gives middle aged hippie

[sage temple]

What if Gunko has a secret deep deep sea contract

[unique lagoon]

power of brook music and nika drums
gunko snaps out of it

evil shanks was cool

Twitter anything’s are never to be believed

[sage temple]

Another mighty arm gone

[prisma yacht]

Nami's dad
Trust

[blazing depot]

Lilith has orange hair

Is she the father?

[strong wadi]

If shanks can escape, so can Gunko

Trust

[blazing depot]

Too late

[formal wagon]

he seems upset here

[ruby moat]

His hammer looks like usopp’s

👀

[prisma yacht]

We dunno how deep gunko's bond is

[unique lagoon]

foreshadowing

[formal wagon]

i just realized the stupid coat makes him look like kaido 🤮

[ruby moat]

Goda…

[unique lagoon]

mf did it again i cant believe it
chills

[strong wadi]

The soul king will free her soul

[prisma yacht]

[sage temple]

Holy aura

Loving that stance Loki

Keep it up

🥹

[prisma yacht]

[prisma yacht]

How do u feel Socrates we finally going to see more about loki

[prisma idol]

Is ragnir more square

[prisma yacht]

Yes

[sage temple]

Yeah

[prisma yacht]

Like in the current timeline it was

[sage temple]

Also it has gold enhancements

[thick mango]

Loki gets two chapters then we cut to teach as a child

[sage temple]

Amazing

[thick mango]

So one more loki chapter

[sage temple]

I predicted this since it's Loki's flashback after all

[prisma yacht]

Theres still time for teach

[blazing depot]

[blazing depot]

Bro predicted it

[prisma idol]

Where is this stated

[unique lagoon]

hajrudin will arrive with the best doctor

[prisma idol]

If you dont mind informing me

[sage temple]

I thought you were talking about Loki from 14-15 years ago

[thick mango]

Loki is pretty good but I kinda wanted the shilouette more than a hypelord

[forest light]

Ida is cooked 💀

Realistically

[sage temple]

This is very obviously gold

[unique lagoon]

true oda just cant help himself killing moms

[thick mango]

I thought he was gonna be kinda fat

[ruby moat]

looks more silver to me.

[sage temple]

You're performative asf ngl

[thick mango]

It's true I love designs like vp

[blazing depot]

My crackpot theory is that he’s gonna meet Lola after letting himself go and becoming fat 😭

[sage temple]

Wanna bet

[thick mango]

I like character designs that are unique and weird

[sage temple]

Yeah I don't like that you like that

[forest light]

What is this beef

[sage temple]

Change what you like for me twin

[forest light]

Most pointless argument

[thick mango]

Haha I'm sorry you feel that way?

[forest light]

Hating to hate

[sage temple]

Lol

I'm jk

[thick mango]

Kaku is another high tier design

[prisma idol]

Once the fb ends I'll reread all of elbaf

[ruby moat]

facebook

[forest light]

Elbaph before the flashback was mid imo

[prisma idol]

FALSE

[forest light]

The early Rodo chapters were genuinely hard to get through

It has good moments (Elbaph double spread, Robin & Saul, Shamrock arrival) but nothing crazy

Sorry but I do not care for Gaban

[sage temple]

Loki really carried pre-flashback

[forest light]

Primarily Haki users are boring hot take

[thick mango]

I liked it. Being in a weird Legoland is exactly the kinda stuff I like

[alpine trench]

good for you lgreat

[forest light]

Thanks harsh

[sage temple]

Yo what is this argument bro

Just hating to hate bro

Why would you do that bro

[forest light]

😭

[alpine trench]

who's hating to hate here

[sage temple]

I digress

[prisma idol]

The rodo chapters were literally just 4 chapters

[ruby moat]

for about a week i got to believe that a large part of elbaf will be made of lego and i was rly excited

[forest light]

Too long (also I’m an Usopp fan and he got no diffed by a cat and that pissed me off)

[thick mango]

I like the feeling of not knowing what's going on with the setting that Lego land had

[prisma idol]

Running from 1127-1129 actually so it was like 3 chapters

[thick mango]

Skypeia has it too, long ring long land

[sage temple]

I'm thinking about the Loki and Luffy bull parallel

[prisma idol]

Then we are put of the castle and in the main elbaf land

[forest light]

See I love Skypeia

Best arc

[ruby moat]

i was so hype we had usopp and we had lego what more can u ask for

[sage temple]

Maybe a medium sized cat that no diffs Ussop

[ruby moat]

peak

[prisma idol]

Yeah I got reminded when you mentioned usopp

Lmfao

[sage temple]

Where is that Observation Haki

[thick mango]

It's hard to imagine what kind of focus usopp could get when loki and gods knights have so much gravity demand so much focus. Usopp just seems kinda outclassed and unrelated to the current problems

[sage temple]

[forest light]

Lifting Loki’s hammer

Yepppp

[sage temple]

This is simply just not his arc

[urban kiln]

usopp had aura for 1 panel

[forest light]

yep.

[ruby moat]

thats why hes the GOAT

[sage temple]

If he lifts the hammer, Loki lifts the sword

Equivalent exchange

[prisma idol]

I keep forgetting how good volume scans are, I went back to scroll through some of the last egghead chapters now that we have the English volumes for them and the chapters look better than I remember

[ruby moat]

what program do u make these in

[sage temple]

Gatekeep

[prisma idol]

Thats all he gets for the arc

[ruby moat]

i promise im not gonna make agenda collages

i got photoshop anyway

[sage temple]

The program

I make these in

Is...

[prisma idol]

He uses Google slides with custom fonts

[sage temple]

Yeah right

[unique lagoon]

every shitposter use paint.net

[dense haven]

socrates are you not afraid of oda glazing shanks at this exact moment

the timing

it's close

[sage temple]

Oda glazing Shanks would just go to Loki

Since Loki vs Shanks is an extreme diff match
