[haughty saddle]

Splitting the work between two people is the way forward imo

One day we’ll look back at the workload that singular mangaka (and their editorial staff) did every week and we’ll be like holy fucking shit lmao man what were these guys thinking

[hot cairn]

I never watched the anime

[pulsar path]

Yeah read ultimate excorcist kyoshi it's literally peak and oda ex assistant! Forget kagurabatchi!

[hot cairn]

just some clips here and there

[pulsar path]

First season is great

[haughty saddle]

ONE OF US, ONE OF US

[hot helm]

oda should release 1000 chapters a day

[brittle basin]

[pseudo gulch]

We already do that to be fair

[brittle basin]

it still wouldn't be over.

[haughty saddle]

Yeah but it’s like a modern thing

[pseudo gulch]

The Kagurabachi army will get bigger and bigger

[haughty saddle]

It’s contemporary right now

[hot cairn]

I've heard great things from kagurabachi, idk if it's the memes or if it's actually good

[hot helm]

would take 2 days

[pseudo gulch]

Is there another way to shorten Kagurabachi that isn't KGB? It fels weird to say stuff like "Man I love KGB"

[hot helm]

isn't kgb the russian cia

[haughty saddle]

I feel like in the future even Japanese people will hold the majority opinion that it’s probably bad to work yourself to death for the 5 minutes of pleasure that teenage boys get a week from pogging out at cool guys doing beam struggles

[hot cairn]

Kagura?

[pseudo gulch]

Yeah that's why I'm looking for another way to shorten it lol

[haughty saddle]

Bachi is a popular one

Or KB

[pseudo gulch]

KB it is

[hot helm]

kilobytes

[pseudo gulch]

Kenny Beecham

My goat of basketball youtube

[hot helm]

kentuckyburritos

[rose rune]

This was the moment johto got on the list

[hot cairn]

I'm just more surprised that so many people read it LOL

[haughty saddle]

I’ll never forget using DDD for Dandadan and someone being like hey change that someone may mistake it for (series I’ve never fucking heard of in my life)

[pseudo gulch]

As long as it's not the Epstein list I'm fine with that

[haughty saddle]

Like no man, we win in sales numbers, we get the acronym now

[hot helm]

dead by daylight?

[haughty saddle]

It was some manga series that never got an English release

[digital spear]

What would it be

[haughty saddle]

That did well in Japan like 15 years ago

[hot helm]

disekai do dmonogatari or smt

[haughty saddle]

Probably

[rose rune]

Noob

[digital spear]

I only found Devil Devised Departure

[hot helm]

one piece > dddddd

[haughty saddle]

Yeah nobody has ever heard of this shit

[digital spear]

maybe they were trolling

[rose rune]

More D's means better series

[haughty saddle]

It may be the greatest manga ever written

I’m never reading it and nobody has ever heard of it

[rose rune]

Actually pretty good

[digital spear]

thats wrong

its not the manga anyway

[hot helm]

will of D

[pseudo gulch]

I refuse to read any series whose name is longer than 4 words

[rose rune]

So no isekais

[hot helm]

one piece?

[pseudo gulch]

"that one time that I got reincarnated as" - wrap it up bro

[digital spear]

Its a well known manga and people call it Dededede so no complications there

[haughty saddle]

Okay no american who engages with the medium on a casual level has ever heard of it

[pseudo gulch]

2/3 words is the perfect number

[haughty saddle]

THERE YC ARE YOU HAPPY

[pseudo gulch]

Absolutely not

[hot helm]

so you're telling me "My brother turned into my sister" is not a banger title?

[pseudo gulch]

It's probably popular only within the family of the author

[digital spear]

Im trying to tell you thats not the manga youre looking for anyway it didnt come out 15 years ago

[pseudo gulch]

And I bet his aunt hates it

[digital spear]

you dont have to defend Dandadan from Dededede

[hot cairn]

are the raws out spoiler readers?

[pulsar path]

I'll be finding out soon! But kiyoshi is really fun and has a lot of heart! Characters do remind me of one-piece characters and it is serious but can deff get goofy in a good way please try! Lol I will be so sad if this doesn't get a damn anime

[pseudo gulch]

These sound like new yugioh archetypes

[haughty saddle]

Oh this isn’t a defense

This is an offensive

I’m taking that damn acronym

[hot cairn]

I'll see after KB

[digital spear]

Thats cool, the manga Thigh posted didnt claim it in the first place

[haughty saddle]

Gotta give that shit a try

[digital spear]

THATS what im trying to say

Its named Dededede

Not DDD

[pulsar path]

Ultimate excorcist kyoshi! Two words and a name go!

[fallen meteor]

i think names are also words

[haughty saddle]

Dedede???

[pulsar path]

Less chapters too right now only 60-70!

[outer flax]

I don't feel excited by any new series of shonen jump now

[haughty saddle]

https://tenor.com/view/king-dedede-kirby-red-eyes-bloodshot-eyes-tired-gif-2263408066553856536

[outer flax]

I miss the era of long running series

[hot cairn]

I agree

[outer flax]

Those were the days

[hot cairn]

they're all too short now

[pseudo gulch]

I ain't reading that

[haughty saddle]

Right now is so much better than 2008 I can’t lie lmao

[digital spear]

Yeah youd have to defend him from it if anything

[pulsar path]

I mean tbh it always been mixed it just seems the age of bleach and Naruto made Evey one aim for 400

[rose rune]

Dededede is the better series anyways

[haughty saddle]

Jump is chock full of really good series and talented artists

[pulsar path]

Why !

[hot cairn]

what series were active in 2008?

[outer flax]

Jjk, mha and all other new gen are inferior to old gen manga

Imo

[digital spear]

tell this to Cam

[pseudo gulch]

Doesn't fit the 4 word title rule

[digital spear]

Cam vs Thigh the epic duel

[pulsar path]

Bleach Naruto, hitman reborn torkiko I think

[haughty saddle]

Bleach, Naruto, One Piece, Hitman Reborn, Slam Dunk(I think)

[pseudo gulch]

Epic rap duels of history

[pulsar path]

It's less!

[outer flax]

Toriko was so good man

[haughty saddle]

Blue Exorcist was still in WSJ

[thick mango]

So it's getting to be about chapter time right, what's up with that

[haughty saddle]

Toriko yeah

[outer flax]

Beelzebub

[digital spear]

They just start stuttering Ds

[pulsar path]

It was weekly at one time?

[urban lodge]

Hitman reborn flashbacks, that was one of my first anime

[pseudo gulch]

Still not reading it

[hot cairn]

arent all of those good?

[rose rune]

I love cam too much to have a real fight

[haughty saddle]

If I recall correctly

[pulsar path]

It's getting remade I hear anime

[fallen meteor]

no way they are remaking reborb

REBORB LMAO

[urban lodge]

Yeah I saw, I'm thinking of reading the manga

[pulsar path]

But it's good and oda!

[outer flax]

Nothing beat the old gen

[hot cairn]

last week it came out at 7pm for me, and it's just 1 pm

[pulsar path]

Old gen in fist of the north star lol

[outer flax]

I read kagurabachi 10 chapters . I dropped it. Literally fast pace of hell..

[haughty saddle]

That came out in like 72 Ill

[outer flax]

[rose rune]

I love me some fat people with six packs

[pulsar path]

That's old gen lol

[haughty saddle]

insane take

[pulsar path]

That's at kinikumen and Dr slump

Than dragon ball and Yu Yu tore shit up

[haughty saddle]

You know what, no it isn’t. That’s what they all say.

[digital spear]

Manga fell off after Astro Boy

[outer flax]

My opinion. I didn't feel anything for any character

Fast pace

As hell

[fallen meteor]

i need to read kagurabachi again

[outer flax]

But alas, that's how manga are now a days

[digital spear]

Same

[fallen meteor]

that and finally starting ichi

[rose rune]

Back in my days

[pulsar path]

That dude is like the father of manga can't really argue that lol

[haughty saddle]

Of all the things to criticize early Bachi for, it’s pacing is certainly one of them

[haughty saddle]

My second fav series in the magazine rn ❤️

[fallen meteor]

ichi i read one chapter and was like 'ok so this is peak' and just never read ch 2

lmao

[outer flax]

Pacing and story telling

Not a fan

[haughty saddle]

Yeah I just disagree entirely

[digital spear]

My friend couldnt get past the start

[haughty saddle]

It’s early pacing isn’t bad at all

Other things certainly yeah

[strong wadi]

Excuse you, it fell off after Ashita no Joe

[haughty saddle]

But pacing??? Goddamn??? How slow you wanna go baby???

[digital spear]

Pretty much the same for me, like I got to ch 5 or something but that was it

[pseudo gulch]

And art

[rose rune]

Adam with jojo slander??

[haughty saddle]

50 chapters in before the characters do anything memorable like the old days??

[outer flax]

We jump to fight too quickly. Should have made character interaction more meaningful and emotional

[haughty saddle]

It’s a tight market out there. The axe is heavy.

[outer flax]

And also it's way too edgy

[fallen meteor]

manga fell off after Chōjū-jinbutsu-giga

[fallen meteor]

anything after is mid

[digital spear]

Manga fell off aftee Azumanga Daioh

[strong wadi]

Ashita no joe is an honorary jojo part 0.1 because the main character’s name is Joe 🧘‍♀️

[haughty saddle]

Notoriously 2000s shonen weren’t edgy

[pulsar path]

Ichi the witch will be for me after kagura

[urban lodge]

How can manga fall off if it was never on

[rose rune]

Good save adam.... good save

[pulsar path]

But dead ass ultimate excorcist is the best new jump series

[outer flax]

Even a lil bit more mature shonen like hxh , that wasn't edgy

[haughty saddle]

Jump’s full of them dawg

[fallen meteor]

kyoshi?

[pulsar path]

Yes

I love it

[digital spear]

Bro I cant take another exorcist series

[haughty saddle]

Bachi, Ichi, Kiyoshi (so I’ve heard), Akane Baneshi, Ruri Dragon

[fallen meteor]

maybe i should try it

[digital spear]

Let the damn spirits ALONE

[outer flax]

I did like chainsaw man
But chain saw man 2 is the definition of why does it exist?

[pulsar path]

Please. It has so much heart and oda coding

[haughty saddle]

CSM, Dandadan, Sakamoto. The list goes on.

[haughty saddle]

Jesus

[pulsar path]

He's one of Oda x assistance along with Akane and crap one other

Ichi?

[strong wadi]

All it sounds like to me is more of you need to be regulars of #other-series

[rose rune]

"We call them akuma/oni/demons/ghosts/whatever"

[hot cairn]

Pluto is peak

the anime is so good

[digital spear]

Theyre too lazy

[haughty saddle]

I had one too many embarrassing slice of life manga recommendations

[outer flax]

I did like to be hero x Chinese anime . It was good

[pulsar path]

I go to other series all the time

[haughty saddle]

I’m not reading Anxious In The Grocery Store man

[digital spear]

Japans hatred for those creatures must be studied, they made like a billion manga about how to hunt them

[hot cairn]

the first chapter is so unbelievably boring

I was surprised

[outer flax]

Manga is dying, so is Japan population, it's correlate perfectly

[hot cairn]

holy peak (I never finished it)

[digital spear]

Yeah I read the first 10 chapters when they came out

[brittle basin]

Do something about it. Be the hero you want to see in the world.

[urban lodge]

Lol that's dramatic

[rose rune]

Sounds like more people should read sanctuary

[haughty saddle]

My nose is never wrong

I’m a bloodhound man I swear

[outer flax]

They need me in shonen jump

[pulsar path]

Tbh you guys are all wrong read zatch bell

[outer flax]

I will give them the new one piece

[hot cairn]

what

[outer flax]

Ah the memories

[digital spear]

So glue

[outer flax]

Now kids will grow up watching kagurabachi

[pulsar path]

It's still ongoing!!! In catching up!

[rose rune]

Heard from a trusted source that while it's not great, it is underrated

[outer flax]

[outer flax]

Yes I haven't read the sequel

[pulsar path]

Eh it's pretty good so far I'm on 231

[rose rune]

Well... at least it's not demon slayer

[pseudo gulch]

Peak childhood

[pulsar path]

It feels like kagura is taking up jjk mantle

[outer flax]

we will never see demon slayer like anime explotion ever again

[digital spear]

Demon Slayer has to be one of the most successful psyops in the world

[digital spear]

I have so much nostalgia with Kagurabachi

[brittle basin]

slop 2004 vs slop 2025

[outer flax]

It's insane how well the movie did

It's ridiculous

[pseudo gulch]

The anime should go to jail for making millions of people think it's a good series

[rose rune]

He recommended it as a proper fun nostalgic shounen

[strong wadi]

Your sources are wrong because in #other-series, we are all Zatch bell fans. Its like One Piece but with much less adventuring.

[brittle basin]

that manga was a fucking letdown

holy shit

[haughty saddle]

Yeah dude. Much better than slogging through months of bullshit filler arcs for series who outlive their inspiration.

[pseudo gulch]

Straight up lied to them and lured them into buying that fuckass manga

[digital spear]

The gaslighting is so good I have to respect it

[brittle basin]

you can borderline argue Demon Slayer is a genuinely bad story

[pseudo gulch]

Game is game yeah I can't even hate it

[pseudo gulch]

Borderline?

[brittle basin]

and proof that the general anime audience are smoothbrains who just want unga bunga

[outer flax]

Demon slayer would be cool if it was your first anime which seems to be the case for most

[pulsar path]

Demon slayer is fine it just ant it like people say

[latent hamlet]

Demon slayer gets by with a lot of its animated fights
Story wise
Its not crazy

[outer flax]

Don't hate it, understand why it's popular

💯

[rose rune]

Trusted source as in he and I share a lot of opinions on what's good or not

[pulsar path]

Also I'm pretty sure the mangaka for sailor Moon is secretly the artists

[haughty saddle]

It’s the Friends of the medium

[hot cairn]

I cant believe demon slayer is so popular

[pseudo gulch]

You're not ready for Coruto, the new Naruto universe series where we follow the adventure of Naruto's great grandson

[strong wadi]

Well if you think one piece is good, then you should think Zatch bell is good.

[pseudo gulch]

TELL EM

[urban lodge]

Zoruto when

[haughty saddle]

500 more chapters. Length is what makes a series good.

[brittle basin]

my first animes were DBZ, Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Ninja Scroll, Vampire Hunter D, Armitage III, Street Fighter 2. We are not built the same.

[latent hamlet]

Wdym
Its not ruto its waki now

[hot cairn]

you for real? I might start it right now if that's true

[haughty saddle]

Not quality or art or storytelling or narrative cohesion

[strong wadi]

Yes I’m being for real

[outer flax]

Demon slayer popularity need to studied .
Like the movie almost earn a billion dollar.
A billion freaking dollars

[latent hamlet]

People like the characters the art and the fights

[haughty saddle]

Just shit out another 20 year long Dragonball knockoff that loses its inspiration by the 6th tournament/raid arc and bobs your uncle

[latent hamlet]

Its that simple

[brittle basin]

Demon Slayer was a psyop

[haughty saddle]

Manga is saved!!!

[strong wadi]

It’s literally just One Piece with less adventuring

[digital spear]

So you watched DBZ and then hit your emo phase

[distant vine]

One Piece?

[brittle basin]

Frieza sent me down the edgy path.

[pseudo gulch]

The animation (which was very good don't get me wrong) carried the story so much

[brittle basin]

yeah

[latent hamlet]

I feel like demon slayer was kinda slept on until the episode of tanjiro's first hinokami kagura with that animation

Then people were like ITS PEAK

[haughty saddle]

No, that at least has really good narrative cohesion

[latent hamlet]

GOD TIER

[digital spear]

It does WHAT to my uncle

[outer flax]

Demon slayer mangaka did some sort of black magic cause ain't no away

[brittle basin]

when you read the manga you see just how not good Demon Slayer is.

[pulsar path]

Characters and mangaka are so on point. Dude is my favorite character ( mangaka ) and not because of lack of other great characters lol

[mighty shell]

my first anime was mha

[haughty saddle]

If one piece does anything well it’s narrative cohesion

[hot cairn]

mine too

[latent hamlet]

MHA had a huge comeback ngl

[brittle basin]

MHA is fine for what it is. But its story is also lackluster as hell, but not as bad as Demon Slayer.

[latent hamlet]

It was basically slept on in season 4-5 ish

[fallen meteor]

my first anime was frieren season 2

[cold steppe]

I think its popularity is due to people who discovered anime for the first time

[pseudo gulch]

Why did you start on season 2

[strong wadi]

But there’s only 1 season

[hot cairn]

I never watched anime as a kid because of the bullying people did to anyone who watched or read anime and manga LOL

[outer flax]

Only thing I recently dislike about one piece is use of haki

[fallen meteor]

https://tenor.com/view/minion-rain-sofela-gif-884905725896610874

[latent hamlet]

Bro time traveled

[pulsar path]

While reading early on I keep saying to my self this is a much better shamen king as well 😂

[hot cairn]

also edgy shit isnt my kind of thing

[pseudo gulch]

Remember when watching anime and reading manga got you bullied?

Now everyone does that

Honestly that's great

[hot cairn]

but I started my hero cause I love capeshit and I had nothing to do

[brittle basin]

But hell, even DBZ is just the ultimate unga bunga. I have too much nostalgia to even critique it

[prisma yacht]

I love this gif

[latent hamlet]

U would still get bullied probably
But for shit taste

[pseudo gulch]

We hate gatekeeping

[latent hamlet]

[pulsar path]

You should try zatchb

[haughty saddle]

Reading manga is still very bullyable

But that’s because it’s reading lmfao

[pseudo gulch]

At least this time it's deserved

[outer flax]

Db is good

[haughty saddle]

These kids would rather die than try to read something

[strong wadi]

I don’t remember which I read first but yes, I had the same thoughts that either “zatch bell is a better shaman king” or “shaman king is a worse Zatch bell”

[latent hamlet]

"Nobody watched dragon ball"

[fallen meteor]

i think my first anime was dragon ball

[brittle basin]

I've read DB smh

[hot cairn]

I do, literally the only reason why I never got into it

[outer flax]

In anime, you read the subtitle unless you watch fub

Dub *

[hot cairn]

that and my mom not letting me

[pseudo gulch]

A friend of mine refuses to read any manga and I want to strangle him

[outer flax]

[haughty saddle]

I don’t watch subs if I can help it

[frail kindle]

What's ur favorite color

[muted hedge]

there's so many people i've met who think that reading manga or watching anime is the same as watching hentai, they don't know that there's a difference between the genres

[brittle basin]

Too many wordy words. No moving pictures. 😔

[hot cairn]

I prefer reading a manga than wathing the anime

[outer flax]

Blue

[latent hamlet]

I read cuz its faster

[pseudo gulch]

At least now you're reading One Piece

[urban lodge]

Mine was Pokemon but that's like cheating, so other than that idk, I think it was Bleach?

[hot cairn]

the anime's designs are always worse than the author's art

[haughty saddle]

Same 100%

[pseudo gulch]

Where animation and sound

[fallen meteor]

oh wtf pokemon yeah maybe my first anime was pokemon

[frail kindle]

Good answer

[haughty saddle]

I’m just speaking on the cultural connotations associated with the hobby in the US

[fallen meteor]

but i think it was dragonball

[brittle basin]

If they told me that I would just own up to it and say "hey you want to read some of my manga right now? together?"

[hot cairn]

oh WAIT

[pseudo gulch]

Yeah the manga art of characters just hits different

[hot cairn]

my hero wasnt my first anime

[haughty saddle]

manga is a loser hobby still. Anime broke out of it for the most part.

[strong wadi]

Reading manga is still an uphill battle for most people in my class, but watching anime isn’t too bad

[brittle basin]

no color??????

[muted hedge]

is that what people call rizz

[hot cairn]

it was freaking Dino Rey

[outer flax]

I definitely prefer watching an anime more

[fallen meteor]

watching anime fucking sucks

[hot cairn]

https://tenor.com/view/dinosaur-king-chomp-ace-paris-happy-dance-gif-15145110443896350778

[muted hedge]

i'd say it depends on what franchise it is

[pseudo gulch]

AND I have to read and not consume the media passively??? Hard pass

[outer flax]

Disagree

[fallen meteor]

manga all the way

[muted hedge]

for example some i vastly prefer the manga compared to the anime and vice versa

[outer flax]

Y'all just used to manga

[brittle basin]

I'd offer to read Death Note with someone. With a bag of potato chips.

[outer flax]

Anime better

[haughty saddle]

If we’re counting pokemon than it’s my first for sure

[fallen meteor]

i just dont have time for anime

[hot cairn]

the adaptations dont do the art of the mangakas justice

[muted hedge]

i'd say when it comes to One Piece for example, the manga is superior

[pulsar path]

I like shamen king some too but damn it didn't age as well at zatch by far and totally lol it was just like this hits where that one didn't for sure but I get the feeling they both become really different by the end from each other

[outer flax]

Just say that

[hot cairn]

I really wished I read naruto instead of watching the anime

[urban lodge]

I have a hard time watching anime nowadays, manga is just more comfortable because I read at my own pace

[muted hedge]

but then when it comes to let's say Demon Slayer the anime is superior

[fallen meteor]

i just did

[haughty saddle]

You’re just a treasure trove aren’t ya

[hot cairn]

million times better

[frail kindle]

I did both and yeah, manga better

[cold steppe]

I prefer anime too, since it's supposed to be a better version of the manga. But one piece managed to debunk this

[pseudo gulch]

Some series have adaptations that are way better than the manga (DS), some have way better mangas (Berserk), some are mixed (OP)

[brittle basin]

Um, I don't want it if I can't also scroll twitter on my phone while watching my favorite streamer.

[strong wadi]

I’d say anime is generally better but anime can have certain elements that make the anime annoying, but tbf manga can too. Although for anime it’s things like animation, VA choice, music choice, etc while manga it’s literally just “man this typesetting is ass”

[outer flax]

If I read instead of watching naruto, j would have missed all the beautiful soundtrack of anime

[haughty saddle]

NARUTO????

[brittle basin]

BELIEVE IT

[outer flax]

[haughty saddle]

Of all anime?!? NARUTO?!

[pseudo gulch]

A friend of mine doesn't even read one piece, he watches tiktoks about the latest chapter and then he discusses with me

I started with the Naruto anime then transitioned to Shitpoopden with the manga.

I'm not a big fan of anime tbh, I'm just a huge One Piece fan

[fallen meteor]

when i was a kid i watched the dragon quest anime too but they named if 'fly' here for some reason

[muted hedge]

i think they remade it

Dragon Quest: Adventure of Dai

[fallen meteor]

yeah i watched a few eps

[muted hedge]

nice

[upbeat yarrow]

oh you know what anime i digged back then?

the viewtiful joe anime

that was so peak

[hot cairn]

One Piece was with the manga (thankfully)

[fallen meteor]

i remember when i was getting into anime and when i googled it NOBODY knew what the fuck 'fly' was and i got so mad and started thinking i made it up
but its just dragon quest

[hot cairn]

also anime movies >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> anime series

[hot cairn]

I have it on my list

[steel stirrup]

This must be a recent opinion

[brittle basin]

Masterpiece, you can't go wrong. And if you hate it, to the gulags!

[hot cairn]

every dominican kid grew up with that shii for real en Disney XD

[hot cairn]

old anime movies are better too

[brittle basin]

I didn't remember that game got an anime.

[steel stirrup]

Yea the get better the further you reach back imo

Ninja Scrolls is still one of the greatest anime movies ever

[upbeat yarrow]

man, i sometimes wonder what kind of person i would be without cartoon network and disney XD

[steel stirrup]

Came out 500 years ago

[distant vine]

There is a simplicity old OP movies have that the latest ones dont

[hot cairn]

deadass me too, those shows all changed my childhood

[hot cairn]

movie 6 is so good

[distant vine]

But the latest ones feeling more...clinical make them written better so I'll take it lmao

[hot cairn]

and what do they have in common? Oda's involvement

smh

it's all Oda's fault

[upbeat yarrow]

yeah it got a whole 24 episode season, i believe it followed the exact same story from the games

[distant vine]

Going from Pre Strong World films to Strong World is interesting

[brittle basin]

i have seen movie 6 and gold

oh and film red

[distant vine]

Cause before Id say the older OP movies are kinda like fanfiction but starting with Strong World the characters and world felt like its true self

Of course it helps that Oda wrote Strong World but even for the ones he doesnt script I notice that

[upbeat yarrow]

ive only watched movie 6 and strong world, planning to watch film z this weekend

[iron oriole]

I should watch the others, only been Red & Stampede so far

[brittle basin]

Film Red for OST
Film 6 for style and animation
Film Gold for Robin

[upbeat yarrow]

aight film gold it is

[iron oriole]

I wish CR had the OP films ngl

[hot cairn]

they're on netflix

[iron oriole]

Not in the UK, at least only Red is

[brittle basin]

LK

[iron oriole]

Stampede was but they removed it iirc

[brittle basin]

Can you use a VPN?

[iron oriole]

Not atm

[brittle basin]

darn

[distant vine]

Going from Movie 5 to Movie 6 is so funny

[iron oriole]

Looking to treat myself & get a laptop either for xmas or after the new year so might watch them then

[brittle basin]

Decent price range

[prisma yacht]

Cutee

[hot cairn]

guys I cant wait for the chapter

[pseudo gulch]

How many more flashback chapters do you think we're getting?

[strong wadi]

just depends on how much oda wants to show post harald

i think it's 3 chapters of this, so that'd be my minimum, maybe 2 more of post-harald stuff

[pseudo gulch]

I don't think we're gonna see much post his death

[urban lodge]

1 chapter speedrunning everything past the Harald incident

[pseudo gulch]

Maybe some random reactions all over the world from major characters

[hot cairn]

1-2 for the castle incident and 1 for Loki's travels

we return to the present at the end of Loki's travels

[pseudo gulch]

That's reasonable

[hot cairn]

but yeah the flashback is def ending in January

[hot helm]

roberto firminho

[prisma yacht]

Do we have another chapter after 1170 ?

this year I mean

[hot cairn]

1170 is not coming out this year

there's a break next week

[prisma yacht]

It's so over

[strong wadi]

1170 could theoretically come. The first january chapter is always super super early

[cosmic hamlet]

Tcb will come out this year

Official next year

[prisma yacht]

Ah

[hot helm]

https://tenor.com/view/crying-death-sad-bradpitt-gif-11039784

[prisma yacht]

Good for us

[urban lodge]

Idk about that, they haven't done that in ages

[cosmic hamlet]

They do

[strong wadi]

it means the 2nd chapter of january feels like a break week inbetween chapters lol

[hot cairn]

no chapter came early this year when we had a wsj break so

[urban lodge]

They always say we'll get early spoilers and scans and it never happens

[hot helm]

why is brad pitt so dam hot

[hot cairn]

I dont think it's happening

it's better if 1070 doesnt come out this year

[urban lodge]

The last time I remember that happening was Zoro vs King

[hot cairn]

we'll have to wait two weeks for the next chapter

[prisma yacht]

Anyways I was saying

[cosmic hamlet]

Yeah either way we getting only 1 chapter in next 2 weeks

[strong wadi]

y'all just be saying shit smh

[hot cairn]

they havent come out early in a long time

[cosmic hamlet]

Adam literally posted above

[prisma yacht]

So the flashback ends early Jan

Finally

[distant moat]

Watch oda decide to immediately go into a brook/gunko flashback after 2 chapters of being back with the crew

[prisma yacht]

https://tenor.com/view/orange-cat-smile-cat-smile-orenge-cat-smiling-gif-23133369

Im good with that

[urban lodge]

Oda would never do something that good

[upbeat yarrow]

nah gunko/brook flashback will be left for the end

... of the series

[hot helm]

https://tenor.com/view/jadeyanh-skibidi-skibidi-toilet-bike-nike-van-dijk-gif-7400281754972605941

[hot cairn]

fuck, we waiting for 2 weeks

[hot helm]

that's for SBS

[prisma yacht]

https://tenor.com/view/speed-ishowspeed-speed-stream-ishowspeed-stream-speed-nod-gif-1082323842437565509

[hot helm]

manga is over chat, it'll be weekly SBS starting from 2026

[cosmic hamlet]

6 more chapters for flashback to end

[urban lodge]

2

[prisma yacht]

Hellnaw

2

1172 at max

[hot helm]

2 most likely

[cosmic hamlet]

We have to see loki journey after the incident

[distant moat]

Im scared hes gonna end up putting a lot of backstory in sbs. We got so much between now and the end like shanks and bb’s backstories each of which i can see being as long as this flashback has been

[urban lodge]

Oda will speedrun it

[cosmic hamlet]

Like he did for kuma?

[urban lodge]

It will be like the Oden flashback travelling montage

[prisma yacht]

Can be covered in some panels

[cosmic hamlet]

We will see about that

[prisma yacht]

We have been thru this

[urban lodge]

Yeah that one also had a montage of him visiting the various islands

[distant moat]

Shanks vs loki guaranteed offscreen😔

[cosmic hamlet]

Oda has to make us cry on how elbaf treated loki after the incident

[cosmic hamlet]

It took 3 or 4 chapters

[urban lodge]

Him visiting the places he sent the straw hats to was only a couple pages

There really isn't that much we need to see, it's only the Lola stuff and his encounter with Shanks, which will definitely be offscreened

Like 100%

Oda won't spoil Loki's fruit in a flashback

[cosmic hamlet]

I was a bit exaggerating when i said 4. Its 2 chapters, 1101 and 1102

[hot cairn]

6 chapters is crazy dawg

[hot cairn]

that will probably fit in 1 chapter

[cosmic hamlet]

There is so much left in loki flashback. We have to see his 14 years of journey that lead to this day

[urban lodge]

8 years

[distant moat]

I think itll be minimum 4 chapters. This upcoming to see the event at the castle. 1 to show him setting off to sea/adventures at sea, 1 for the lola stuff ending on his encounter with shanks and 1 to wrap everything up and how he got in his current predicament

[muted hedge]

i think it ends when Harald dies

[urban lodge]

And it really only needs a few pages

[hot cairn]

it's 8 years

[cosmic hamlet]

You don't wanna see what he did for 6 years after tied up? Maybe he talked important stuff with mosa

[urban lodge]

Lol

I don't think much happened

[hot cairn]

bruh he was tied up

what do we need to see besides Shanks visiting

[cosmic hamlet]

He made friends with animals

Talked with mosa

[urban lodge]

Those animals were always his friends

[upper rose]

I think loki’s getting another flashback with lola and big mom and shanks later

[cosmic hamlet]

But tbh, i hope oda shows atleast a glimpse of shanks vs loki and give clarity on loki proposal to lola

[prisma yacht]

This isn't happening 😭

[wraith mantle]

Where chapter at

[distant moat]

Honestly i could see the lola stuff getting talked about in an sbs now that i think about it

[cosmic hamlet]

Why?

[prisma yacht]

I just know it

Trust

[upbeat yarrow]

what if oda transitions from harald flashback into loki flashback INTO KID FLASHBACK, then we return to kid saving the crew from imu-gunko

[urban lodge]

Ew

[upbeat yarrow]

hold on im cooking a buffet here

[distant moat]

What if instead of kidd flashback its urouge flashback and him and enel roll up to elbaph

[urban lodge]

I like Kid but there are limits you know

[distant moat]

Accurate source he was right last time i asked

[cosmic hamlet]

[distant moat]

I really hope we get to see urouge soon of the worst generation he always interested me the most (other than that fraud with a peak character design)

[cosmic hamlet]

I think you might like my theory.

Shanks mother is from eustass family

[cosmic hamlet]

Dead

[digital spear]

Peak but doesnt work because Kids hair doesnt have the same shading in the manga

[distant moat]

Is he? Has this been confirmed? Im rereading post timeskip rn but i dont remember anything like that

[digital spear]

No

[hot cairn]

is this a good source?

[distant moat]

Yes may be off by a little but last time he told me chapter was coming today he was right

[digital spear]

Name is scratched out ... looks trustworthy

[ashen perch]

no

[cosmic hamlet]

He died offscreen

[hot cairn]

true lmao

[cosmic hamlet]

Why did you ask where chapter then? 😭

[iron oriole]

Kids mother has the same red but then his father had lighter coloured hair which made Kid have a different shade... solved

[hot cairn]

we have no reason to believe you tho

[wraith mantle]

I didn’t ask you

[distant moat]

Only fine with this if it was enel and he comes back

[cosmic hamlet]

but its up to you guys to believe or not

[prisma yacht]

[cosmic hamlet]

Okay

[prisma yacht]

https://tenor.com/view/sad-cat-cat-in-front-of-sea-gif-16930437336998530733

[cosmic hamlet]

So its either urouge or enel huh?

Joe rogan shorts

[distant moat]

They both are coming to elbaph trust

[muted hedge]

i hope that Enel returns, but at the same time i don't know what purpose he'd hold

[hot cairn]

first world stuff

[thick mango]

I'm not an enel returning fan

[iron oriole]

It is now

[muted hedge]

wasn't Enel quite disinterested about history in general though? maybe it changed

[distant moat]

I think if he comes back it will only be for the final war. Maybe using the arc maxim to help people escape the immenrnt flood. Regardless the arc maxim has to return to earth from the moon i think as its in the mural so obviously holds great importance

[wraith mantle]

This last week of work is such a slog to go through

Goddamn

[hot cairn]

not at all, he found out about the moon stuff from history in his homeland Birka (also Urouge's homeland)

[digital spear]

On EVERYONES soul Enel will return and be god buddies with Luffy

[cosmic hamlet]

Bro literally everyone coming to elbaf.

1. Big mom
2. Kaido
3. Kidd (although he already sunk near elbaf)
4. Carrot
5. Yamato
6. Enel
7. Urouge
8. Shanks
9. Blackbeard
10. Akainu
11. Dragon
12. Ace

Anyone else?

[hot cairn]

tweakin

[thick mango]

Isn't this completely out of character though? He was misanthropic, genocidal

[distant moat]

That treasure chest dude from east blue

Gaimon or something like that

[digital spear]

Top 12 people who will come to Elbaf (as a start)

[iron oriole]

Gaimon yes

[digital spear]

Then the next 88 people come

[wraith mantle]

What does misanthropic mean

[urban lodge]

I need an Enel and Imu interaction

[iron oriole]

Con D Oriano will appear & make G8 canon

[olive sigil]

Kidd above carrot is crazy

[alpine trench]

Hatred of humanity

[wraith mantle]

Damn

[thick mango]

Hating humanity

[cosmic hamlet]

[cosmic hamlet]

Order is irrelevant, I just wrote as i remembered

[iron oriole]

How did you leave out Vivi though or is it just meme returning list

[olive sigil]

Ok but specifically for carrot it should be #1

[distant moat]

Need don krieg to fight franky in the war🙏🙏

[cosmic hamlet]

Wait, I'm sorry. Vivi has chance to arrive

[cosmic hamlet]

||988||

[muted hedge]

you're right i went back to re-read a bit and he also notes what Robin says to be very interesting which is regarding an ancient thing

[hot cairn]

yep

[cosmic hamlet]

Why? Isn't she supposed be on zou? Unless you want zunesha to come to elbaf

[digital spear]

On EVERYONES soul EVERYONE will be on Elbaf

We will be there and watch the arc live

[muted hedge]

yeah, i'd believe so too i just hope that he doesn't return only to be fly swatted as soon as he appears

[cosmic hamlet]

Elbaf is the final arc

[olive sigil]

Vivi won’t come. At least not until Karoo comes for her

[olive sigil]

Because she deserves to come

[iron oriole]

Foxy should return in Elbaf & he dies fighting Imu & in his last moments he hands Luffy an afro & tells him "go get 'em champ" & then we get G5 Afro Luffy

[olive sigil]

She’s worked really hard as new duchess now she can go on an adventure

[cosmic hamlet]

Deserve is a strong word

[distant moat]

Yall think gaimon soloing imu if he ever gets out of that chest?

[cosmic hamlet]

Its not even been a month probably

[hot cairn]

are you @grand flower 's alt

[olive sigil]

That’s fine

[digital spear]

Zunesha comes and eats the tree

[cosmic hamlet]

Who is he?

[hot cairn]

wolf I'm so sorry but

[olive sigil]

It’s not how long, it’s how hard she worked for it

[olive sigil]

You better not say anything bad

[cosmic hamlet]

Bro he has kidd pfp, how can i be his alt 😭

[hot cairn]

Karoo isnt coming with Vivi

[hot cairn]

LOL

[olive sigil]

That would be so stupid

[cosmic hamlet]

Yamato has more chance

[olive sigil]

Like what’s the point

[hot cairn]

why? he's not with her right now

[urban lodge]

Yamawho

[olive sigil]

Yamato had her chance and blew it

[hot cairn]

nahhhhh

[olive sigil]

Terrible cover story

[iron oriole]

Karoo sadly wont be with Vivi, the emergency food spot is filled

[cosmic hamlet]

Really terrible

[alpine trench]

You guys would hate the other cover stories earlier in the series

[cosmic hamlet]

Who has the highest chance then?

[hot cairn]

Vivi 100%

[alpine trench]

“What is Enel doing waaaaaaah” ass shit

[ashen perch]

REAL List of everyone who is actually coming to Elbaf/already in Elbaf:

Kid
Urouge
Vivi
Dragon/Sabo/Revolutionary Army
Shirahoshi
Big Mom

[olive sigil]

Because the whole point of having Vivi is that she brings Karoo with her

[cosmic hamlet]

Germa cover story is very good

[digital spear]

Yamato has the BEST coverstory in the series

[hot cairn]

that's absolutely not the whole point of Vivi coming back lol

[thick mango]

Everyone who's coming to elbaf is already on elbaf

[muted hedge]

poor Katakuri

[cosmic hamlet]

Where is she now?

[distant moat]

Aint marigeoise burning rn? I assume thats the revolutionaries

[digital spear]

Yamatos coverstory > One Piece itself

[ashen perch]

its Lafitte

[distant moat]

So probably no dragon

[hot cairn]

trying to get in contact with the crew via the newspaper

[olive sigil]

Me looking back to every cover story I’ve read over the years and didn’t hate any other one

[cosmic hamlet]

Even yamato fan will not say this

[iron oriole]

True, without Yamato cover story we don't get Tama oneshotting Holdem & without that we don't get all the canon events of Tama clashing with top tiers

[digital spear]

So glue

[cosmic hamlet]

She is probably saying she is safe

[ashen perch]

also I am not sure if Imu even means its actively under attack atp, because he seems to be in no hurry

[prisma yacht]

What's whimpyhoshi gonna do?

[ashen perch]

maybe he is just referring to the state that we know it is in

[digital spear]

Finally meet Loki and get the Noah repaired??

[cosmic hamlet]

Wdym he seems to be in no hurry? We haven't got much of it. Imu arrived in elbaf and we went to flashback

[olive sigil]

The crew didn’t recognize her message. You know who would? Karoo

[distant moat]

Yea i just dont see why theyd need shamrock back so urgently if it wasnt under attack

[iron oriole]

If it is under attack, its not a major priority to Imu clearly

[iron oriole]

Possible promotion to Supreme Commander

[distant moat]

The strawhats on alabasta havent seen it yet

[thick mango]

Who knows. I don't assume imu acts strategically at all

[olive sigil]

But Karoo has and he’s on his way already

[hot cairn]

then why is she trying to find where are they?

[cosmic hamlet]

Because she cares about them

[hot cairn]

the crew that saw that message has no idea what the x mark is for, they werent there for that moment

[cosmic hamlet]

But tbh she probably is far away from elbaf

[ashen perch]

he is choosing to stay and watch how giants will be using their strength after Domi Reversi, while very slowly walking towards where Jarul is. Its clearly not something ultra immediate if he is willing to stay for possibly hours here.

[hot cairn]

LOL cmon now, this is literal proof that she wants to meet with them

[iron oriole]

Vivi obviously wants to meet up with the SHs

She knows she cant return to Alabasta

The safest place for her is with her friends the Yonko crew

[cosmic hamlet]

Fair enough but do you think imu will personally go and fight if something happens in mariejois?

[prisma yacht]

I see
Meeting loki hellyeahhh

[cosmic hamlet]

That was a joke, however my honest answer was below that

[digital spear]

Exactly
(I explained it a bit here)
#also-manga message

[olive sigil]

And oda knows that. It’s to buy time for Karoo to make his way back to her

[hot cairn]

I dont think she's coming to Elbaph but I do think she's meeting with the crew eventually down the line

[ashen perch]

I am thinking it really is just about the state of Marie Geoise that the Revos have already left it in with the blockade, nothing more

[hot cairn]

I dont think so

[cosmic hamlet]

That i can agree so there is nothing to argue

[prisma yacht]

Lesgoooo whimpyhoshi

[iron oriole]

I really really really want it to be the CDs fighting eachother for the last bits of food etc but idk if Oda will do it

[olive sigil]

It would be very weird if she’s not with him

[hot cairn]

no it wouldnt

[olive sigil]

I really don’t see the point

[digital spear]

W whimpyhoshi W speed

[cosmic hamlet]

Food crysis?

[hot cairn]

Vivi can exist without Karoo

[ashen perch]

if it was Dragon or BB then yeah

[hot cairn]

I dont see what's the issue here

[olive sigil]

It’s like if sanji suddenly decided he wouldn’t be a cook anymore

[ashen perch]

yeah I can see it, maybe a full blown civil war even

[olive sigil]

That would just go against her whole character

[ashen perch]

yup

[olive sigil]

She exists to take care of Karoo

[hot cairn]

what? what is that comparison wolf

[digital spear]

He hates Vivi so much he doesnt think she is worth anything without Karoo.

[cosmic hamlet]

I don't think its time yet for BB to target mariejois. He was never straight forward. He sneaks in and grabs what he wants

[hot cairn]

huh? no she doesnt lmao. Vivi is a very independent character

[cosmic hamlet]

However dragon is very likely

[hot cairn]

bruh

if that's the case then conversation over

[digital spear]

Yeah I just wanted to spare you the time

[hot cairn]

thanks

[iron oriole]

Yeah, Shamrock gets called back & told if he quells the CDs he will be promoted to Supreme Commander, i think theres a good chance of it since the HKs are presumably the ones who punish/pass judgement on the CDs

[ashen perch]

I agree, it isnt the time for Dragon either though, his blockade is working really well, going in there to attack Marie Geoise when he can get wiped out isnt smart at all

[olive sigil]

I don’t hate Vivi. I wouldn’t want Karoo on his own either. They just work together as a pair. What’s Vivi without Karoo. It’s like dorry without broggy. It’s like Johnny without Yosaku. It’s like cow without piece

[cosmic hamlet]

i think its probably another sneaky stuff like food

[olive sigil]

I really don’t hate the character. Just some characters are meant to be a group. And it’s weird to keep them apart

[prisma yacht]

What if bb goes after whimpyhoshi

And since she is supposedly coming to elbaf

Bb makes an entry at elbaf

[hot cairn]

if that would be the case they wouldnt be split up right now

yet they are

and Vivi cant return to alabasta

[cosmic hamlet]

To add to that, we also saw dragon saying he will only make a move once god knights make a move. He wouldn't advance first

[olive sigil]

I’m really weirded out by the fact they’re separated. It still doesn’t feel right

[ashen perch]

yupp, makes perfect sense, he would have the authority to quell all protests from the Celestials and punish them if they are behind all the chaos.

[ashen perch]

yupp

[cosmic hamlet]

Karo will find vivi like going merry found strawhats in enies lobby

[olive sigil]

See this makes more sense

She needs to reunite with him first

[iron oriole]

Theres not a realistic way for them to meet up though

She cant go to Alabasta, Karoo cant fly.....

[olive sigil]

We know he knows about the x

[olive sigil]

He can learn

[cosmic hamlet]

Karoo doesn't have to unite with vivi alone. Ingram and karoo might try to find vivi

Maybe even pell

[olive sigil]

Pell can carry him on his back

[ashen perch]

Going back to how Sommers mentioned it, the way he talks about it is also more like "oh the Celestials are going insane over there" rather than "WE ARE UNDER ATTACK". Been thinking about it lately and this really is the option that makes the most sense lol

[olive sigil]

And fly him over there

[cosmic hamlet]

[hot cairn]

I agree with this, this is what I've been saying ever since that chapter dropped

I dont think Marijois is literally under attack

[prisma yacht]

Oh yeah makes sense and all imu said was why is it taking so long

[iron oriole]

Another thing that makes me think its not under attack, Sommers is just casually on his sofa chilling about to get ready to go to Elbaf, if it was really that dire due to an attack from an outside source... you'd think he'd appear like Killingham did (mid run)

[ashen perch]

true true yea

[cosmic hamlet]

I don't know if the "sea of flames" is metaphor or literal

[distant vine]

That is possible. As of Egghead it seems the CD's are starving of premium food rather than food in general

But maybe theyre just that spoiled, or the basic food is running out too

[prisma yacht]

Ok I was mistaken

[ashen perch]

it might be literal depending on how far those Celestials are willing to go for their food

[iron oriole]

All food should be getting effected tbh

[stone terrace]

I think its just that they dont have options

[distant vine]

Useless ass Marines doing nothing to end the blockade

They would naturally have huge stores of food

And not being able to eat what you crave is their version of starving

[cosmic hamlet]

Oh you mean celestial dragons throwing fits and putting flames in the cooking area

[ashen perch]

yea lol

[cosmic hamlet]

Does weebcentral upload official?

[iron oriole]

Idt they do because they have consistent shipments of food etc

[cosmic hamlet]

Where can i read official for that panel

[iron oriole]

If you were keeping food in massive quantities, you wouldn't need as many shipments as often

[cosmic hamlet]

I just got it aswell

There is a difference between "in a sea of fire" vs "is a sea of fire"

[cosmic hamlet]

You think celestial dragons eat any food which is not fresh and new?

[stone terrace]

Some things literally are meant to be stored

Rice for example

[cosmic hamlet]

I doubt they eat all those, they only eat premium stuff

[hot cairn]

also I think people are jumping on the holy land being under attack because the TCB tranlation said "We need greater numbers" but in the official it's just "THOU seems to require additional military force" talking about the holy knights in Elbaph

@ashen perch

[ashen perch]

yeah, also other way around actually, TCB got it right on this one

[hot cairn]

yep

[cosmic hamlet]

Official also uses "thou"? I thought its a tcb thing

[iron oriole]

Do we know how long the blockade has been a thing from the Revs?

[hot cairn]

I got confused, the one you sent first was the tcb one

[hot cairn]

post reverie it seems

[cosmic hamlet]

I remember it was mentioned when sabo came back from lulusia

[iron oriole]

So its been like a month or two?

Max

[cosmic hamlet]

Yeah mine is tcb, the one arsal sent is official

[hot cairn]

looooord how long til we get the chapter

[hot cairn]

yea

[cosmic hamlet]

You really don't wanna believe mine?

[stone terrace]

Meek is busy with school

Friday chapter it is

[cosmic hamlet]

Trust in mine

[hot cairn]

I hope it's true cause that means it's soon but idk who your source is

[hot cairn]

he said someone else is translating

[cosmic hamlet]

Ideally average people, even nobles can survive but celestial dragons need specific food. We can see how they kept shouting at akainu

[fallen meteor]

new TCB translator Week

[cosmic hamlet]

My source is above feeso and meek

[stone terrace]

Theyre doing rations so they have enough food rn yeah its not urgent urgent

Its a siege basically

[iron oriole]

I was just thinking how long its been because if its only been like a month & they're already feeling the effects of it then they don't have large food storage

[hot cairn]

true, you guys cant blame meek for this week

[stone terrace]

People whove never struggled are gonna overreact

[hot cairn]

Okok, I'll believe you, in how many hours from now is it supposed to come out?

[latent hamlet]

'WHERES MY KING CRAB AND A5 WAGYU. THEY ONLY GAVE ME SHRIMP COCKTAIL AND RIBEYE"

[stone terrace]

But yk i just thought of something

The holy knights

Literally

Can teleport

[iron oriole]

Ayy ribeye nice though...

[cosmic hamlet]

Yeah, they usually get fresh food

[cosmic hamlet]

He said 3-4hrs like 1 and half hour ago

[stone terrace]

Like cant they just bring food through the abyss nullifying the siege efforts lmao

[hot cairn]

okok

[latent hamlet]

It is, but they want the premium fatty cuts

[latent hamlet]

They might be needed elsewhere

[hot cairn]

I'll hold you up to that

[blazing depot]

Chapter better come out soon

[latent hamlet]

A food "shortage" isnt the most pressing concern

[blazing depot]

I’m watching the new Avatar in a couple hours. That shit is 3 hours long

[iron oriole]

Its not their job type shit

Whats the point in having a Navy if they wont be the delivery boys

Akainu about to go fetch some lobster

[cosmic hamlet]

[runic dock]

This book talks about a theory in story writing called the death of the author , once a work is published it becomes separate from the author and any additional comments about it from the author are seen as just another interpretation and not the de facto objective narrative

Given that , I wonder how much sbs we could dismiss

[iron oriole]

"FOR MEN!" on the bottle too

[dense haven]

CHAPTER OUT
