Garling killing Rocks was just an added bonus. Honestly the reason why I believe he gained even more favor with Imu Nerona
Sanji was the one holding the camera here
The topic was about a character dying in elbaf. I added within our conversation you seem to treat the topic as if its real life people dying
I wonder what garling thinks of him today
he smiled
i don't blame 'em, i'd probably sit on my ass too if the opportunity was given to me
not voting carrot = a vote for climate change
probably strongly dislikes him since Garling said all this chaos only started with Nika resurfacing and that’s only due to his son Shanks
lol fuck the Earth then!
i think that he is disappointed in him more than anything, also a bit of that speech he gave when Mjosgard was executed definitely felt aimed towards Shanks
Kidd fans 😭
Vote for light
every non carrot vote is one day sooner i make the coral reefs barren
Probably thinks he got manipulated by the lower realm peasants and is misguided
who r the top rankings rn
yea this is what I wonder. Is it more of "I hate that scum" or "Im disappointed in my son"
I voted for Loki
this image is a war crime
i have not paid attention to that vote thingy
i think it's a bit of both, lol
Lucci is in 3 top 5s
but mainly i am disappinted
wtf
The shamrock pic at the bottom killed me 🤣
lucci.?
yes???
Loki is one of the best written characters
Yeah Lucci is him
lucci is the goat
But why would I do that in #also-manga ? Just because again, you want it to seem like that doesn’t mean that’s what it was. Thus as to why I’m like, why would I speak like that in #also-manga ?
I was being deep as you mentioned, then you treated as if it was deeper to the point it was irl. I already do not even want to ever have a debate with you. You want someone to die because people die (in op) which is the most lamest thing ever. Do u.
voting for lucci "yeah I like sociopaths without a personality"
way better than l*ffy and zoro and nami and fraudji
tbf it’s their fault for actually believing shanks wanted to help them anyway lol
I don't think he outright hates Shanks, even might have some sympathy towards him for being manipulated and might even attempt to bring him over the "right side" again, a bit like how Shamrock is implied to feel
you think someone who was raised by a D clan member is gonna want to genuinely help you CDs lol
voting for lucci "yeah i like how he beat zoro in base form"
at least give me a hot psychopath witha personality
I don’t know who to vote for
you gotta give it to Shanks he is a good actor
like zaddy imu😍
eh, i'll say Lucci is at least a hot dude
A big theme around the Celestial Dragons is about how thick they consider blood to be
carrot
he's a hot assassin
ig to some truee
hes not my type but
i can see it
Do you think the story would be good if next chapter Imu decided to stop hurting people and the world became peaceful
I am subbing for doomed Joyboy Imu yaoi
i'm more a stussy man myself.
lol a good actor for people who don’t know him , if anybody who knew shanks before had saw him acting like that , they would’ve immediately knew he was faking 😂luckily the CDs had never met him before
https://x.com/i/status/2040043277681082492
this feels pretty close to what I was seeing on the last panel
YESS PLEASE
PLEASEPLEASPELEASE
JOYBOY IMU YAOI
HURRAH HURRAH
his heels😭
I think CDs tend to asusme anyone would want to be a CD if given the opportunity
he felt pretty that day
didn’t view it that thick with Doffy lol
Hardly a good actor, the CDs are just too gullible that they believed it was legit
I gotchu don’t worry 🤝
they would’ve benefited from allowing Doffy to come back
Yeah, so it looks like Imu has a flat tail. Curious what Oda's intention are with that. Maybe it's like a flat 2D drawing and can become whatever he wants.
Doffy as a HK would’ve been there best one based off what we seen so far lol
Contain yourself!
We already have theories that something happened to Imu. And that’s what’s supposed to happen anyways, until something evil like BB comes.
if he would’ve remained a CD he would’ve
I dont expect BB to arrive at elbaf. (or mariejoa) he has ancient weapons to snatch
Doflamingo absolutely hates the celestial dragons
Mu never leaves home without them. 
welp u still got celestial dragons
But Im asking you that specifically. Would it be good for the story if next chapter imu became a good person?
he couldve chosen better shoes😭
Doffy is more villaineous than Imu
Doffy would happily kill Imu and the entire Gorosei and burn Marijoa if it meant he could be king of the ashes.
he was contempt with being a CD under the rule of the gorosei .. it wasn’t til they didn’t let him back in when he started to hate them
That's a discrepancy yeah, but the Figarlands view themselves as different. Both Doffy and Mjosgard being Don Quixotes were either executed or shunned away. The CDs probably also have hierarchies where certain families get more flexibility
The forest god himself
Big Chopp
tbh imus voice actor doesnt fit with the new design
but he’s a conqueror .. that’s already more than all the HKs we’ve seen so far lol
Chopper is too puntable
welll theyll.prob do away with the reverb
his crotch is in zoro's eye. and the other eye is scarred. zoro can't even see right now lol
Lmfao
Obs haki upscale
he can taste his surroundings
The voice actor we have now isn’t final, its purpose was to conceal Imu’s gender up until the reveal
he licks the air like a rabid beast
Again, it depends on his backstory, and where the story goes. Imu is already marked as the biggest villain, a very big threat. But I’m more concerned about BB
So, it could be good. If the story fits well & aligns well. As long as there is a different evil being. 
He could become good if he’s defeated, no?
In terms of potential yes but thst doesnt mean he'd ever learn how to use it
learn how to use what ? he knew how to use his conquerors haki
17 years old holding onto zoro like a baby gorilla holding onto its parents oh my god 
i guess itd be weird if they just randomlt swap vas for the main character after all this tension about who it is
Imu's VA hasn't really been cast
Anyone else notice Imu only effects the wooden trees and wooden buildings with that demon shit, wonder what that's about
I hate how luffy doesnt even understàd wth is going on around him, i'm sure he didn't even listen to Vegapunk's message 😭😭😭
Its a placeholder
So you want BB to be evil? Why would you want BB to do more bad things?
Eh barely, it's one of the most lacklustre uses of Conquerors considering what we know now
Kaido had a placeholder VA, Oden did, Vegapunk too
because we're evil
lmao that’s still more than any HK we’ve seen .. that’s my point
we rarely even see them use armament
It’s been marked in the credits as ??? So rn we don’t know who the current one is
Technically Shamrock too, though it was just Shanks VA
i guess
And he is far from using acoc like harald
Doffy being skilled enough to awaken his DF and him having CoC is already more than other HKs and enough for him to had become one hk self
welp lets see
lmao bruh Haralds the only HK we saw use acoc , even Gaban said that ..
you don’t need acoc to be a HK
True yeah
For a lot of the series coc was just a badge of honor
Don't doubt it, except Shamrock, none of them might have CoC; who knows what specific problems they had with the Don Quixote family though I don't think that ever gets addressed
imu, shamrock, killingham, and king are the objectively prettiest characters in one piece
shamrock gonna have coc
yall liked imu?
I'm feeling Mamoru Miyano for Imu, it has to be someone who can nail the vibe I'm getting
mpreg loki yess!
It’s a good design
I give it a 7.5 on a scale of 10
though luffys ace actually mybe i should respect that
8 maybe at peak
that settles it.imu x loki yaoi
liked is an understement
Gunkmu vs Real Imu, who clears
Spice...
Because he already has been doing evil things, and a new EVIL person would be better than someone who’s been doing it 800+ years and not get punished. (Unless there’s a reasoning for him) but, we still don’t know of BB intentions, but I’m okay with him doing it instead of Imu. Nice change of topic 
Do you think anyone can die by BB? And if so, who do you want dead?
Unironically don't mind it
i wouldve preferred a girl imu like a better dressed gunko but i dont think oda wouldve handled that well
so ig it goes to twink imu
I think that's on purpose
its the hybrid form anyway so theres acoiple other designs well see
exceeded every expectation i had

@ashen perch
#ONEPIECE1179
︀︀
︀︀Usopp realizing everyone has to fight true form Imu because of his rage bait :
Harald was the only hk with coc but he already mastered acoc, doffy having coc wouldnt make him a better hk if he doesnt know how to use acoc defense
oh what a horrendous mistake
be careful what u ask for
I disagree, it's quite in the same vein as some other designs where it's still distinctly One Piece but also does have obvious foreign inspirations
I think its definitely a very One Piece-y design, people just need to realize that Oda does these sort of designs too. He's a very modified King in essence, but probably red skinned
imu abt to qauke in his boots facing usopp of all people
I'm OK with the idea of it being "intentionally different/alien/not One Piece-like" on purpose. But in execution, it doesn't stick the landing for it. Nice in concept, not in execution. But art is subjective, so it really doesn't matter.
lmao who tf said anything about Doffy being a better HK than Harald .. did you even read what i said ?
my point was that if Doffy had remained a CD , he would’ve eventually became a HK with what we know about him
So you want evil things to happen to the world despite them happening for the past 800 years? And its okay for people to die to BB but not Imu?
And I think your last question is the problem Im referring to "who do you want dead". You make it seem like im some evil person trying to kill off real people. I dont particularly want anyone dead, but it is good for a story like this to involve deaths.
anyone else laughing that oda repeated the garling walk-in again lmfao. i think he just sits right outside the room waiting for his moment
he has just promoted Shamrock
Without the horns he does look Lunarian
Skin just seems darker
baddies
i'm still praying for Lunarian
Lmao this always cracks me up 😂 Usopp as Ishowspeed, Loki is unfortunately Logan Paul, & Luffy is Austin Theory.
He's red, devil red
His skin is closer to being Reddish-brown than actually a Lunarian dark skin
I expect him to be devil red yeah
our first dark skin character ever in one piece ? for some reason Oda is obsessed with light skinned people 🤷🏾♂️
Like the actual devil
but yeah arsal is right, he's more than likely red. which is fitting for something demoic. and i champion Demon Piece
they dont like him
This is a hybrid after all, he's going to resemble a devil.
Yea I think it’ll be the same color red as shanks hair
do you think when he first walked into the Room Of Authority, he thought "tsk, the door doesn't open inwards, can't kick it open."
red or gray
he caters to a Japanese audience first and foremost and I think that, on average, informs character skin tone. sucks, but that's what I believe is the harsh reality of it.
i think theres still.a coiple like the other lunarians since theyre canonically black but its def weird that theres not a lotta diversity in skin tones since like
Garling the type to walk in, close the doors & kick them back open just to make a point
This is what you said
u literally have multiple arcs abt segregation and racism
I was assuming that he was just busy because they've got a lot to deal with but this is funnier to imagine
yeah you probably right .. which sucks
so tuff
Which is straight up not true because base coc doesnt mean anything for combat
clearly i wasn’t talking about Harald the man equal to fucking ROCKS cmon now lmao you must just wanna argue
its def to do with the catering to a japanese and primarily east/southeast asian audience
who are pretty colorist
infamously xenophobic society. what're you gonna do except progress slowly. at least Oda tackles themes of racism using fishmen, that's a plus.
why would i think Doffy is that strong lmao
The next plush should be a topman plush
He ready to slide
tho theres alsoa big portion of readers in europe latin america notth america which ig still are pretty colorist😭
I literally only said harald because harald is the only example where coc would matter lmao
Topplush
Juba what did you think of the Imu reveal
product of its time i guess💔
Im saying coc DOESNT matter
yeah that’s sad
Facts they aint give rocks melanin💔💔💔
Usopp damn near white now
I mean the fanbase couldn't handle the POC castings in the OPLA, it's bleak
smh
Like bro WGAT us this
It's quite nice, thematically serves to separate him from the others
its a common phenomenon for fantasy stories to tackle themes of colonialism oppression slavery segregation etc. while making the main cast almost exclusively white sadly😭
Never forget ahiru
colorism is a VERY good way to describe it. I feel this topic doesn't get brought up enough, and it instead we use the word racist. but colorism is a much infectious disease that skirts by most people's radar, and allows people to include lighter skin people but not darker skinned (on average at least).
He leaves and re enters the room until people notice him
facts even when it came out that Oda himself casted Vivi , people still were like “ no they’re lying , Vivi isn’t that color “ smh
i see a similar thing play out here
Oda aint canon

Is Lysol fault we got imu in elbaf
Maybe bro was telling the truth
It's quite bleak yeah, I even saw some backlash against Brook being black which like ??
i use it because one piece isnt made by white people and colorism is a significant phenomenon domestically in many east asian or south east asian countroes
if oda was a reliable source we wouldn't need to change zunesha's height 3 times
just SAYING
But yea, as for Imu, I'm thinking he'll be red for sure. I expect him to look non human, any color that adds to the vibe is perfect
like is Kuma the darkest skinned character in the story ? damn 🤦🏾♂️
Or daz bones
I genuinely want to know whats going on there
oh yeah Daz too
thanks
i feel like thats also a significant portion of why east asians serve as like "model minority" in terms of beauty standards too but thats a discussoon for a diff day-
cutie patootie
Honestly, it's kind of a thing still in America too. Orange is the New Black had great commentary about it involving how black women are shown on magazine covers, noting that more often than not they'll use light skinned black women instead of darker skinned black women (I think things have changed a bit since then for the better though).
all father Imu
I love this image tho
they made him white in manga coloring scheme😭
If I could send a SBS I'd ask Oda "what the fuck is going on with Zunesha's height"
there's a conversation to be had about it being slightly weird for oda to cast an indian actress for vivi who seems to have egyptian or at the very furthest persian descent. kinda that he's mixing south asia the middle east and north africa into a blob of people when there's so much diversity to be had there. but i'm not having that conversation cause i'm constantly having to defend vivi's actress for the crime of being brown
trvth nvke
oda is a hack
oh hi emood
🤦🏾♂️
TRUE!
you know what fujitora once said
!oda
i can leak verysecretive info abojt you mwahahaha
maybe he grows whenever he moistens himself, and shrivels up when he gets dry
https://x.com/iS2abarai/status/2039782990692164075/photo/1
this color scheme is great
hi emood. i now have your IP. put the money in the bag.
Good show
zaddy
D:
Yeah, I had a great time with it.
The fanbase cant even handle anime Robin being not tanned from alabasta
i wont tho u can blackmail me badly too💀
oh you have blackmail? that's like, my biggest weakness!
ugh imu is so hot
I think the Vivi criticism is atleast understandable from that point of view but not many were necessarily coming from that you know? A lot of the same people were also going nuts over the inconsequential casting of Igaram for example.
no spoiler roles
watch him be piss yellow and banana green
yeah it was less a nuanced conversation of institutionalized racism and more "oh my god people of color in my fantasy pirate show???? when did netflix go woke"
Gotta take away Oda's color pens before he can even think
Imagine thinking you can judge a god.
base imu is green
You’re supposed to put a question mark first but it doesn’t work either way
Jrpg virgin
yea most of them jumped to the low hanging fruit (racism path)😭

I have fought Imu in a number of Final Fantasy games.
I saw people unironically complaining that brook's actor was black
because one piece fans dont have reading comprehension😭
is this thing on?
oml...
lmfao I love how they repeat themselves
wait brooks already in one piece live action???
that's actually pretty fucking funny
wait whut😭
But…!!
"GREAT IMU BUT..."
"we cannot stop him"
"BUT GREAT IMU..."
"we cannot do anything..."
Hey us Bleach fans have perfect reading comprehension thank you very much 😤
they want zaddy imu all to themselves
Yeah they change the narrative structure quite a bit
season 2 cameo. overall, his voice is incredible and his Yohoho is perfect. my only complaint is he's not skinny enough.
i would too
i'm a jjk fan i can't understand what this says
Brooks casting is amazing
No racism but fatphobia hmm
holg shit theyre speedeunnng this
imu reveal next season omg
U know
Now that we have imu reveal
Who's a good actor for imu LA
my boyfriend
jack black
They just tossed him into the rumbar pirates flashback during the Laboon arc
Benedict Cumberbatch
Sorry, theres no cure for that one 
i think my husband would be a good fit for imus actor
Tbf the cameo was cuz of crocus with yorki and brook came in like "if food and drink aint it, how bout music"
you have a husband and a boyfriend?
timotee chalamet is prefect for imu
Yeahhh. A conversation could've been had about the auditioning choices from the studio itself for example, which I heard was looking for South Asian and WANA folks at the same time for characters obviously not meant to be South Asian, but instead we had that lmao
yea imu nerona and i just got married
waow
WANO folks?
Was this before or after he was revealed to be hot
Yeah Wano
in the split second between messages
where my real ones from Yano Cuni at
ive been the filthiest imu fan ever since his intro okay
maybe not the best word but...
Yc switched up
ive been a fan😭
Where do we think Shiki shows up again
have been rooting for him all this time
season 2 is great, highly recommend. so many easter eggs and references. it's doing a good job with the speedrunning aspect
Ambiguous background detail in a crowd scene during the final war
Against the final battle with Imu saying dont worry im here to help
nah imma watch yachirin bitch club

Loyalty 
any usopp fans in chat
We had schizo mihawk in season 2
Not Oda.
ever since we got the revealnof a king of the world ive been itxhing to see him in action
Sup
Who's ready for schizo imu
ive beeen his #1 supporter this wjole time
always been the main villain in my eyes
usopp is pulling up on the real imu
rabid beast 
Oda no longer cares about Usopp but he's gotten a lot of attention in the movies for some reason so post timeskip hasn't completely abandoned me
Someone should modify his mouth as if hes eating War head candy and he's trying his best not to succumb to it
He cares
In LA
I thought Topman Warcury was the main villain before Imu was introduced so it was pretty funny to see em almost insulting Warcury this chapter lol

i love warheads!
he'd rock with those colors i won't lie, i think he'd work with any color
Well, I was close enough
Usopp LA soooo good. Huge props to Jacob.
He's genuinely the best actor on the show I love that guy
Topman wants to clear his report card
usopp responsible for the fall of elbaf is poetic
valid he seemed like the head of the gorosei before we knew more abt the structure of the elders
He wants to get in there and do it himself
Yeahh
so true
I thought he'd be their leader
i thought it was samurai gandhi
How’d you feel about Hiriluk’s actor?
Turns out
He just got lucky and got the middle seat
do the gorosei have a hierarchy in their group?
piss yellow, vomit green, and 13 randomly selected colors from the rainbow
He sat in the middle, which is very important!
Me an kim jong un have a mutual appreciation for warheads
peak
There's a point where he gets really serious with Zoro on Drum Island and it was like "Oh damn. This is some good shit."
topman over blackbeard?😂😂
Seemingly no
They seem to discuss things equally
Tho it feels like they're a tad more tense around garling
Don’t think so but certainly an order in which they were indoctrinated
phenomenal
hmm
i personally think theres a hierarchy in strength but they operate collectively
reminds me of when people desperately tried to rank the gorosei in egghead
He did very well, great casting
we just didn't get a lot of him and they kinda gut out the more cartoonish parts of his story so he feels like a much more sensible man than he was in the comic albeit that's not the actors fault literally at all
Gandhi has the most aura
Yes. It was the WG over Blackbeard basically.
Thats all i know
and i base that hierarchy of strength based on the planet names proximity to the sun
Hiriluk's actor having a near identical name to Hiriluk in real life is proof there is a god and he is cheeky.
We don't get a good idea of why he's a bad doctor in Netflix
Gandhi clashed with zoro
Number 2 minimum
this dynamic makes me like the gorosei a lot more, the 4 left feel all uniform but garling definitely has a secret agenda and it makes them feel less like the same character repeated
cuz its cool
garling wants imussy

garling x imu yaoi
Wow
Even if he doesnt
He was made an elder because "yo. Saturn dead. Im one of u now. Get over it"
i assume it was based on order they landed since planet names seem more accurate to me based onn how theyre portrayed
And they're probably like "oh shit..one of us died for failure"
Even if they may have cared for Saturn
Doesnt matter anymore
BADDIEEEEEE
Lowkey I glad they hate Garling cuz it gave us this panel lmao
gulp
"Oh no he's hot" moment
gasp
so much Imu art so quickly
"Guy thinks he one of us"
Lmfao I actually love these guys
it's a time to be alive
I've seen two people mention Garling's "Secret agenda." Are we reading too deeply into this?
Imu broke the internet @pine scaffold
its a funny dybamic
No Garling absolutely is vying for power
The possibility is there but nothing really strong hinting at it
I don't feel it.
the one person the entire group hates but the leader is the only reason keeping them together
I cant remember if Naruto and bleach had anything on the scale of Imu reveal
more tensions in the dynamic
He's the Napoleon in this scenario
My history of Napoleon is non-existent.
Bible sisters...
marxster😭
The elders are ineffective. Imu's a fossil who's lost sight of his own people. The capital is on fire.
What a blessed good friday
“Whose mans is this”
O ye that reminds me
Apparently the food shortage is so bad its affecting their soldiers
These are all true. Though I'm not sure about the second one. it's probably more nuanced than that. He has ruled all this time, after all. Probably more "might is right," but he was in power.
He is a king
And he's the one who has first dibs on the mother flame and Uranus once the research is complete
Bruh were they feeding their soldiers a5 wagyu
Garling shittin in America rn
you forget in marijoa soldiers are the secondary priority
Direct ju peter callout
trvth nvke
i mean
they did
i honestly just assumed he's talking about the Gorosei, this is their prerogative.
garling has that youth in him
in like 3 pages garling is already the elder that stands on business the most
Warrior god of agriculture cant grow a tomato
red imu
In terms of internet going crazy?
He's talking about himself generally but I think that extends to his own men (HKs)
on that, i don't know
OK, now this I think can work in his favor for a power grab. I had not considered this angle.
They realized they had to use basic bread
Garling a freak
well this server was in lockdown for imu reveal but not for naruto or bleach so the winner is clear
The server was in lock down for Imu and not for G5
well shippuden sucks so it's ok
Thanks rokaya
Yeah he's a snake
also had the entire server glazing Imu for one day straight
If what you say is true, how far do you think it will go?
imu is so pretty
I been glazing imu for 6 years
imussy

💀
Garling is obviously very aware the Gorosei and Knights have been disappointing
RIP king
i've been glazing Imu ever since i was born, true story
Garling's casual statement regards to Imu is sort of a firing gun of him potentially wanting to pursue the throne
Greed among his people will never stop
I like that Garling casually hyped up his son though thats funny
I glazed imu before Oda was conceived
yeah i guess that's where I got lost. I kept thinking he was shit talking only the gorosei.
i glazed Imu before the universe existed
Yeah, he really has no fear
My thoughts are that we're basically gonna see a civil war break out as Akainu, (maybe) Sword, and Garling all attempt to take control of what's left of the government while Teach attempts to plant his ass on the throne
Yeah, it did
And Imu isn't going back to the capital anytime soon
He's taken the risk and will pay for it
Left his seat open at a vulnerable time
ah, yeah I've also thought a civil war might break out, so we're on that same page.
Its moreso a double thing. It can be literal with how he's criticizing the Gorosei over inaction at this stage given what's on the line right now. However he's reassuring them so that he can continue with whatever he needs to do.
i wonder what Shamrock dealt with though
I glazed imu before the universe Bedford the shin. Ffffjlotvniuyg eEEEEEEEEEE
@pulsar timber What do you think Oda is going to do with Imu here?
What do you think about them coughing blood up too on arrival?
And is as far as we know someone that can submit authority
I think he will go back sooner than we realize, but I also think when he goes back he will be very vulnerable (i'm also assuming bb kills him here though, but I don't know if i'm in the minority here or not)
I think it’s crazy that he’s coming here alone. Like yeah, Gunko, Killing Ham, and Sommers are here, but
Ew they ai upscaled it
non WG affiliated nations should be below everyone else but above the slaves
Either Imu is about to clean house and dip out after getting pressed by Loki and Luffy, or we’re going into a portion of a story where Imu isn’t the biggest threat around anymore, which would be nuts.
Garling is Mac Tonight
I’m not sure what he will have imu do here. I don’t see imu losing or getting embarassed but I don’t see a total defeat for the Strawhats. The main arc villains are usually much more competent than their underlings
Imu coughing up blood is interesting and adds to his vulnerability and thus character
I think Imu is going to clean up shop but I think the story is lifting the masquerade that he's "omnipotent" to the point of being unstoppable
Do you think them bleeding could hint that they are weakened and won't be able to use full power
If the timer thing is true then imu will probably wreck crazy havoc and look good but be forced back to Mariejois or something
There's clearly tangible weaknesses
oh yeah Loki and Luffy are fighting!
to
oh Imu recognizes them both as Nika and Nidhogg?
to
oh Imu is coming 
Is that an Always Sunny ref?
Probably a
"Nika and Nidhogg have resisted Domi Reversi. I shall have to test this myself"
They probably smack around loki and luffy for a bit
Its going to make the antagonist dynamics a lot more exciting
i think elbaf is doomed and we'
Gonna take forever
This is what I assume.
Nah. More like it is taking a toll on his body and soul. Deal with the devil and all that
ll have to flee like egghead

Now he’s just here. In person. By himself.
yh...according to WG
I don't think Elbaf is doomed, however, since we still probably have lore to uncover.
im not even sure the giant children are safe
I will say one thing I REALLY don’t wanna see is Strawhats getting Domi Reversi’d
I just can't see Blackbeard being able to kill Imu at this point no matter how weakened Imu will be after this... if Rocks couldn't do anything then we'd have to rely on devil fruit shenanigans and even then I feel like Imu could overpower whatever devil fruit shenanigans BB has rn
imu might get the mafter all
Elbaf is top 1 arc post time skip
It already happened
In pirate warriors 2
I don’t expect it but I also really don’t think that would be compelling or fun
I don't think this will be the case, personally.
What about the hevean realm ODA
And if it is, Chopper might be the key.
my homeland theory... it is close to death
Atp young Garling just a different character. That's Figarland Onion
TRUUUUUUUE
I can't believe some people were so delusional as to think one piece would end before 2026
Me either, thank goodness
What I think will happen is Imu is going to quickly sort of try to beat everything before his timer is up.
It's clear that the trope of "If you want stuff done, do it yourself" is happening.
No, I do not. I’m catering to your thoughts because as a debater, I know what your intentions are.
I’ll explain. I don’t think people will die, unless there’s a VALID reason. You’re not giving me a good enough reason for me to understand why Broggy needs to die. Saying “people die in op anyways” doesn’t make it right. Yes, people die everyday in op. But your disagreement is “it’s good for people to die” but it’s ALREADY HAPPENING like that’s all that’s been happening. Imu has been winning 800+ years bro. A different evil entity is fine, and I believe THIS TIME AROUND justice will be served properly just not by “WG” and if that sounds boring, I think history repeating itself is boring too. Someone DIFFERENT a new evil era coming into display, wouldn’t sound bad. But what Imu has done is unforgivable and he must be punished for all that he’s done, along w his crew mates. That’s all. 
But before I wanted to speak about a different evil being, you mentioned “you speak like it’s irl” which threw me off, and I insulted. Because you basically insulted my wisdom and my love for speaking about op to our trashy world lol. 
Just had mickey ds
Its happening guys
Domi Reversi SHs
I remember when I had to argue imu would be a fighter
Imu was always going to fight lmao.
I need better reference for imus size
Dude was heat seeking Sabo the moment he dropped in
They should look VERY tiny on that castle
"Gandhis sword is for decoration"
but they are huge
appears to be about the size of a giant
maybe a bit bigger
where can i see 1179?
I used to argue with people going that it's extremely obvious the five elders are capable of fighting and aren't just speakers
Curse you meeks
holy snailed
ty
I think it’s gonna be weird if we redo the trope of “okay we just dealt with the World Government upper brass (Kizaru/Holy Knights) phew that was tough- OH NOOOO EVIL FROM THE SKY, BIG REVEAL, (Gorosei/Imu) is here now to clear house and reset the board against us.
Like we JUST did this
I don’t think Oda will hit that structure so quick
I think this is fine when you consider the opponent is also on a timer
U know what would be amazing
Imu isn't going to win, at least not in a landslide way
I can easily see our heroes stalling as much as they can
And sees imu true form
The Gorosei didn’t win really either, but I feel what you’re saying
Yeah I feel like Imu having to leave cause of time or something would make more sense than the straw hats just slipping away
how you feeling @solid stone
I really like the fact that Imu, despite most probably being the literal devil, as a lot going against it than what is going for him
one piece ends in 2028-2030 to me
Get me in the screenshot
depends on what oda drives the story to
And this will tie into how leaving his position vacant is going to give people savvy with this info a chance to take it
2033 at the earliest
Cough Garling
In my mind Oda has plans to finish in 2030 and then he'll keep adding stuff to 2036 on accident lmfao
if Garling ends up taking more of a major role in the story
that'd be stupid
2028 would be like less than 100 chapters
I already cant take this guy seriously after his terrible performance at GV
☹️
Yeah I definitely think we're 200+ chapters away
Why would Garling taking big leads in the story bad?
Hes never living GV down
It's clear he is.
I like 2037 because its the 40th anniversary
Hm, good point
epic design
bro aura farming like he piccalo
https://x.com/llaw_47/status/2040103964595618073/photo/1
this might be my favorite, holy shit i love the red ambient light around it
It’s crazy that not a single of the og 20 will match imus aura
Oda's artstyle by then
one piece is far from ending mind u over 1000 episodes for SEASON 1"
this artist missed the dots on his body, which are super sick
oh yeah
the season 1 joke lmao
We probably have a good few chapters of Elbaf left, then we need to visit lodestar(technically we don't but I'd find it wack if we skipped it since it's the end of the log pose route), blackbeard needs to be taken out, they need to go to laugh tale and learn the truth, and they need to take down the WG
We are going to Vira
oda said it is season one wym we are claiming -.- we just ignoring the authors words now
Stop the cope
this is why people should wait till better scans drop, the dots arent clear here
SO MUCH AURAAA
but they are there
Do you guys think the rooftop being visually reminiscent of a pyramid is intentional? I think it is
definitely
two more days
20-30
Oda cropped it in that way
which rooftop
yes
i might actually have to pre-order whatever volume imu is released in
I would hope everything about it is intentional
the one imu is standing on
fuck WB vira is real
bros on top of the world
everything is intentional when ure talking abt scenes heavily reliant on imagery
and if ure a poststructuralist it doesnt even have to be that
ODA IF YOU CAN HEAR MEEEEEE DROP IMU IN THE VOLUME COVER FOR THIS CHAPTER PLEASE
themes and such :))
Vira is the only thing that can redeem the blue planet
That'd be too spoilery for the volume cover imo
definetly going to have a flashback , because before imu got frozen he was trying to speak to them .... so i have a feeling he will drop some heavy lore on the devil fruits
ODA IF YOU CAN HEAR ME MLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH 😛
he will, volume 116 will have Imu on the cover
oda doesnt gaf tbh he will drop spoilers in volume titles all the time like the one with ace"s death
Oda doesnt care
he put gear 5 in the cover
Mihawk fans turning into buggy rocks fans
it sucks for spoiler free readers ig😭
yeah Oda assumes that the volume buyers are the weekly readers too
fr
even though its not true
same thing wit anime which sucks
they buy it out like crazy where he lives
he did that?! lmao
when is the new volume coming?
oh wait he did
please say it's soon
Gear 5 was revealed like 8 chapters into this volume
we are on break
its very funny
please say the new volume is coming soon
tbf
we are on a big break after this chapter
HUH????
that one's after the Akainu fist
That Imu is standing on
i heard there was a 1 month break :>
Ace was obviously dying
I think the tankobans release quarterly, but I’m kind of pulling that out of my ass based on intuition
yeah i mean the volumes i think we're on 116?
yes he needs to see his family
so trve
its true, 1043 ends with Luffy starting to awaken
Arsal do you know when the next volume drops?
they did the same with the shamrock reveal rightt
Say you swear
can we all agree this is the best anime of all time
best manga

yea im lying AHAHAHAHAHAA
crazy to put spoiler on the cover like that 😭
I am fully ready to die for Imu btw
2-3 months? a date hasnt been revealed yet I think
chill we need our goat
damn it
yeaa
oda does not care
IMU COLORING RAHH H 🔥 🔥
mind u bro will play u as a pawn before he cares for u
tbh tho i iwsh oda cared more cuz like
i want there to be like a blind reader
seeing the story without spoilers
Ifrit Jambe is unveiled in the second last chapter, King of Hell in the last chapter
ad experiencing it through tankoban
theres just so many examples like this lol
yall aint ready for the imu cover
zoro and sanji did they thing here no lie
imu zaddy😍
I have fallen in love with grey imu but I wouldn’t mind redmu
when i first started one piece i did it completely raw and didnt see the volume covers or read the titles ngl, i didnt know anything about the story either. was AMAZING
Volume covers are typically gonna be representative of the content within them. The assumption is that people buying the volumes keep up with the weekly chapter releases, I’m sure
Oda better get real fuckin creative with the imu cover
Im talking demonic circles and flames
we don't need Luffy on that one, just Imu
I think grey Imu is my favorite too
i love the little easter eggs that are our cover pages like no one does it like oda man

how much u wanna bet he'll somehow find his way in there
it's inevitable but...
I have seen various skin tones on Imu and they are all perfect its wild
one can hope
false
pinkmu is better
That is what fufils me
Himu
I’m certain it’ll be red
redmu
okay fine Luffy can be somewhere in the background
yeah me too
we know he has lunarian skin from what the leakers said tho
If you aren't ready to serve your purpose, are you ready a fan to begin with?
the leakers were assuming
the leakers are just assuming like we are, lol
Yea theres no way to know
I want it to be like the Oars and Luffy cover
you realise the leakers have the same pictures we do
I hate my chud life
oooh that could work
they dont suddenly have a coloured version
I have been in a depressive rut for the past week
Its actually a different shade. Imus shade matches shanks red hair
I hate how much of a bum im becoming and im so behind on school work
yeahh
the epithet of Oars was The Devil too... so it works
or this one
adderall
Time to quit tcb
with Imu instead of Enel
ooh another good one
Yesssss Oda please
well when his skin tones drops it is going to be wild , mind u we are on elbaph right now and this is going to happen very soon
I act so belligerently in here because i treat this server as a form of escapism and its so wildly different of a persona from how i am irl
I am such a chud
meek
I need to lock in
I am gonna hit you with something
Im sorry for being so belligerent on here
and do not mind it
BRUH
but we have a no vent rule
😭😭😭😭
is that true
imagin the 3 month break and u didn't catch up just for the goat imu to be revealed

why didn't they give Garling his official colors, lol
poor little abused translator 😢 someone help him
but we do
Imu is insane
I caught up after like half a year's break two days or so before the spoilers dropped
!vent
DON'T VENT YOUR ISSUES HERE
Rocks felt the aura of this form and ran away
its right there
https://x.com/Oakshi1/status/2039796780540232105/photo/1
holy macaroni
but yea, Imu! Imu! Imu!
The only reason I remember that command exists is a certain erased user
yoo u aloud to the BBQ big dawg
Meso?
I don't think so?
Who here remembers meso
but i don't understand why bro was hiding as a lady
that man
Meso would go crazy seeing Dark Sanji be DR sanji
was there someone who vented a lot
and bros powers like he was a giant blob thingy facing sabo
lol….apparently that’s his “gear 5” form..
Rise of Sanji
Speaking of Imu, Oars really does have the same type of horns as Imu here
is this his actual foarm or is this just to fit in with "humans"
that's what i was thinking it's a form he took
that Devil epithet that Oars has, its gonna be relevant soon
really? one horn is sorta imu shaped but the other really isnt so i assume its just the angle playng tricks on u
answers why they didn’t go after luffy pre timeskip
mind u he was so mad flashbacks of people that was a problem for him started popping up
true yeah, its definitely the angle
they didn't k ow where kuma threw them al
he turned into a robot right after he did what he did
The gorosei knew before
oh Imu's horns are curving from the very top too, just noticed
But they probably didnt tell imu
My guy did you not see redon’s hints😭
no
It's interesting to note that Imu has various features
Not just Oni horns
Which I find fasincating
various
they do have physical characteristics
imu asking who's who in the news is so cute to me
"Some weird kid with stretchy powers"
"Could it be Nika?"
"....eh, doesnt seem like it. Just a kid"
and we not taking in the details
"Ive been chilling in my room wtf is happening"
Im going to bite the bullet and say he might also have a 3rd eye.
he has a lot of features of diffrent people we already met
Retcon retcon no mi
i think so too
hes a combination of so many elements, but Oda manages to make it all work somehow
the first awakened third eye, right?
redon during spoiler hints dropped a pic of king and oars together.
but what does it mean "the first 20 abilitys"
oh that
u misread what i wrote
my guy
watch luffy s devil fruit be the first 1 abilitys
I think this is suppose to convey the potential aspect of the devil being a melting pot of different races, as my headcanon
@analog goblet no they're separate lines - this is a ss from our script
this is the first time we are getting an actual telling of the ability beinf the first of 20
One of the first 20 (monarchs) and ability are separate things
Having so many distinctive physical traits
probably would’ve helped to put it as “one of the first twenty kings”
why would the devil be mixed race...........
ok was overthinking heavy
The horns are interesting
yeah oops
3rd eye Imu incoming
I think the devil is the progenitor of these races, not necessarily a melting pot
Idk if they knew he had rubber powers
hes a combination of them because they all came from him
drop the pic of bro on the top of the house
Melting Pot can also blend into being a progenitor.
they are all aspects of him
Do you guys think Imu has a sulong form? at this point we think imu is a chimera of all the races in the OP world LMAO
He is the mother of all beings
I used a big word: Chimera.
true true
soo wheres imu's tontatta tail then?
is ''he descends'' gendered here?
no
what’s the word for that mythical being again
he has a devil tail
the literal comment just was verb only: "descends!"
Jesus?
chills
lol
Or Chimera
Imu is like THE racist, i don't think oda would base him around a chimera
oh echidna
should have translated it as descent!! then smh
mother of creatures
It’s the will of Nefertari Lili the love of his life…lowkey idk why Lili chose joyboy over him..
I do like this interpretation more. The shared characteristics people are pointing out don’t feel like they’re one in the same with the alleged counterparts
This goes hard
davy jones will right here
oh hshit thats smart
I should take your job honestly meek
Whatever you prefer
all father Imu
You should try
yupp
Shuron reached out to feeso bc Shuron wants to edit for TCB
He doesnt seem like he'd bad at it
Tbh
we need to see lili flashback it's going to hit so hard knowing or maybe seeing joy boy ans imu waa brothers
oh no I just wanted to get you out of your job specifically
Oh.
not interested in editing
Aside from the hair, which feels like an directly shared trait between him and Nika
@digital spear Do u think Imu is the final villain after this chapter
Insane hater
the light and dark ( knowing anime this might be it )
Next he'll take meeks girl
arsal when will we see shamrock again?
Also this might be a hot take, but I hope this is what Imu literally looks like normally.
in a cutaway probably
And it's a cocoon for the devil
Now that I saw his design I can confirm Blackbeard is hotter thus the final villain
that's just him taking control of saturn
I like the cocoon idea but I do feel like we will find out his true appearance at one point
That is a hot take
Im talking about the blob generally
A shell he uses to avoid the light of the outer world
This is a the coolest shot of it.
The blob is part of him technically
It might be surprising even, I could see Imu being a frail man in reality
I don't like him being a blob
a sickly frail man
So Imu took off his veil and crown?
that's what i mean when he was facing sabo that giant blob thing wrd was that his true form
I hope so too but I’m not confident that we won’t get details revealed for that silhouette
do you guys think this chapter is genuine set up for kid coming back? I think this chapter could set up his future role in the final war being fighting the holy knights: the hearts made of steel and the bodies reattach like magnets...
surely this was intentional, seeing as though kid got beaten exactly 100 chapters ago.
thoughts?
@graceful belfry @ornate tartan @fast pagoda @wet condor
was just a cover up
I think he didnt take anything off, its like what Luffy did to his Elbaf outfit
if Kid was in Elbaf, he'd just one shot all the holy knights due to them having metal hearts
I assume so
I think him being seen as something indescrible in base, something we will never fully understand is very cool generally. And his devil form being his pure form that doesn't hide away anymore.
I think thats why Oda took him out of the arc
Yeah I think thats also possible
Imu's outfit will come back when he is out of his ''Gear 5''
But I saw someone had a cool idea where the Imu that we see is not actually him. Through a soul binding pact with the devil or darkness their real form is actually "in the void"/Davy Jones Locker or something. The Imu we see is merely a projection or avatar of that
The blob just needs more details, which I feel like is the main complaint
It's possible, I see both Law and Kid fighting a knight of god since their powers are like perfect counters to their abilities
is a possibility that in his real human form he is a terrible looking man and when he turns into devil he reachs that handsome form and that's why he use the blob form
dont get me wrong i fuck with the blob form 
I 100% believe Kid is coming back and the hearts made of steel is certainly a good observation to make when considering how Kid would fare against the Holy Knights
I can see this
wtf we finna do vs that fr 
This is a really cool idea. I just don't really like the blob all that much
lol
i’d hope so bro
Its the normal look not really taking advantage of it, really.
Holy Fodder when Eustass Chad returns 😭
But I like that its something we can't see (yet)

bro u guys cant tell me kid isnt stella , ( if stella died ) how are they still alive and how is egg head still floating ? where did egg head go
theres 2 options with the real Imu form if its not a cocoon
- dying sickly frail man
- weird little creature
I am leaning towards the latter
Kidd and Law fighting knights of god would be very cool
That weird little creature is the devil
can't wait for Imu to show us more of his arsenal
I think it just looks like the Imu we saw but without the horns and tail and red skin
to weatheria, the brain is still intact
I dont mind the idea of Old Man Imu though
it went to where 
I kind of wish Imu had butterfly wings
One could argue that he was deleted for the sake of this to be a thing 
@ashen perch @digital spear thought ?
Which is another thing to mention
Would remind me of a certain villain from a classic Jump manga based on a popular JRPG
I was thinking he did have the same base design ofc, but just weaker and older in appearance
Stella is “alive” in the sense that Punk records is his brain. Also egghead is a manufactured sky island, what do you mean? VP wasnt holding it up with magic powers like Kaido
in that case i can see he eating the devil fruit out of envy of joyboy cause he wasn't as powerful and charming as him in order to try to get lily
but then he wouldn't have aura hed have sparkles
Weatheria is where Nami got her degree
Imu in the garden was always aura.
Pure aura
nah lost aura after we saw rocks in the room
The butterflies add to the aura
Imu was not fazed
I don't think he did but Imu never had all that much aura for me
we thought that place was untouchable until we saw our goat there
cap
He was giving Rocks the Sassy Side Eye
Rocks went up but Imu's just stayed the same
she has ptsd of rocks daily
Shemu in the big 26
this is still so surreal
Yeah I think Kid would have a role there
Read this
#manga-theories message
Not really tbh lol
getting bta from luffy and loki talking about rocks why we lying
I really need Imu to bring the gun back
That was funny on chapter day
Need to see devil imu with the shotgun
Comically large shotgun
He was not getting bta he let that shit happen
fuck it, give him a minigun next time
or an rpg
or why not a portable nuke
He was just embarrassed
someone should redraw that cunty side-eye panel in his current design
It pisses me off Brogy regrew his hand
giant luffy was bigger then normal full zoan kaido, should be almost as big as base loki
why we showing this like i'm a rocks fan
