Chapter 443 "Thriller Bark" Discussion

@Fire Fist:
WEST Blue. It's probably an Island Whale like Laboon with an island on its back. I put a theory up about that.
possible theory
did brook say someone with a same ability melted within his eys from the sun??? so there can two people have the same DF

Such a great chapter!
Anyone else thinks that Oda purposely introduced this theme around these chapters because Ch. 444 is coming up? I'm not sure about Japanese but in Chinese the number 4 sounds like "die" and is considered bad luck. Like with the number 13 there are no levels (in hotels and stuff) with the number 4. Goes straight from 3 to 5.
Haha also I have a feeling when this arc is over Brooke is about to play the violin again and everyone is really keen on hearing it but it turns out he's really lousy and everyone's like wtf except for Luffy who thinks its the best.
-
Is Usopp supposed to be Van Helsing in that get-up? I love it!
-
Doesn't it seem like they're actually inside the whale again rather than on top of it? The teeth we see appear to be the inside of the mouth. As the front of the ship points toward the teeth and aft is where the "island" is. It appears at some point the whale swam up and took them into his mouth.

Brook: "Miss, your meat is a little big. Would you like to switch with mine?"
Sanji: "THERE ARE SECONDS SO EAT YOUR OWN" -
Brook fits perfectly into the team already and he's only been in the manga for two chapters so far. I'm loving it. At first I thought he might have been deceiving them but he seems to be really truthful. Also really interesting to see him run on the water. I can see luffy chasing after him, get his shadow back somehow and ask him to join again kinda like nami's joining minus the betrayl. Brook is exactly what luffy kept saying he wanted a loong time ago a musician. I'm so excited i'm already imagining how he fights.
-
I don't think it's a whale, but a ghost or a demon. And it looks kinda like an old British-type place, with the Big Ben style building.
-
Also does brook's yomi yomi fruit make him virtually invincible in battle as in would he resurrect himself or does he have a limit to how many times he can die?. Because I did'nt understand the fruit from what he explained.
-
Is Usopp supposed to be Van Helsing in that get-up? I love it!
He's dressed as a pilgrim. (Not an American Pilgrim, but a Buddhist Pilgrim).
-
Brook: "Miss, your meat is kinda big. Would you mind swapping with me?"
Sanji: "THERE ARE SECONDS SO EAT YOUR OWN"Well, here's a least one positive thing to say about Brook joining : his tactless behavior towards Robin and Nami makes Sanji's faux pas with the females seem milder by comparison! (In fact, Sanji may even win the full respect and attention of Robin and Nami if he can shoo Brook away from them often enough!)
-
A musician
Says he's lonely
An apparent arc that deals with returning his shadow in order to be able to be exposed to lightDamn….how Oda is going to manage with Brooke on board the ship is beyond me!
-
I disagree. As with most of the crewmembers' behavior towards Luffy, I see Sanji and Brooke as an Abott and Costello team. Sanji is the straight man who plays off of Brooke's weird quirks and lines. And it won't go any deeper than that.
Brooke asks to see a woman's panties, Sanji kicks him in the head, Brooke's head goes flying and smacks into someone…. probably Usopp or Zoro.

and Brook's supposed to be a gentleman XD

Gentleman uh? Man after one chapter and three pages I already love that character. Great job Oda..
-
On the third page, in the panel Zoro screams on Nami and Sanji(bottom right): Is that an eye in the sky or just an oddly shaped cloud?
-
@Fire Fist:

I immediately thought he was dressed like Father Guido Sarducci from SNL fame, with the crosses and the exorcising of demons and what not.
-
"NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!"
(That was my first thought when I saw Usopp's costume change! :) His rosary that's made entirely of garlic bulbs is an inspired touch – Usopp must have stolen them from the fridge before Sanji locked it)
-
For a sec, I thought Ussop was wearing Ace's hat. Nice to see a new costume for him. Hope the other SH get some new clothes.
-
@Fire Fist:
WEST Blue. It's probably an Island Whale like Laboon with an island on its back. I put a theory up about that.
Why on the back? Brook [+e?] mentioned that was the only gate [though he also said you can somehow open it], and those were some huge teeth. I'd guess if an Island Whale, probably he swallowed the island or something.
Problem is that the island should have been there to begin with for that.But really, I'd guess it's a bigger/different animal. I mean, the animal should be controlled by the head of the Thriller P/Bark.
The life-span connects though. -
For a sec, I thought Ussop was wearing Ace's hat.
He even looks a bit like Ace with that hat on – specially in the close up with Choppy! :)
-
LOL zoro's getting his personality back, brooke is awesome.
-
(That was my first thought when I saw Usopp's costume change! :) His rosary that's made entirely of garlic bulbs is an inspired touch – Usopp must have stolen them from the fridge before Sanji locked it)
what if he has the awesome "heavenly garlic summoning" ability?
sanji and brooke is the flirting duo..
-
Usopp looks like he's cosplaying D.
The fact that Brook has a violin makes me think Oda's pulling something out of Danse Macabre (classical music piece that has Death portrayed as a violinist). And earlier I had the mental image of Brook pulling a Midvalley the Hornfreak and fighting using soundwaves from his instrument. It's only fitting.
-
So… the Yomi Yomi no Mi. Does this mean instant death for Brooke if he is somehow grabbed by Blackbeard? I'd say he better lay low that arc.
-
probably, i hope he dont come to close BB…
-
Only one chapter and a half of Brooke, and I already love this guy! Honestly, it's to the point I'd be really dissapointed if he didn't join.
Awesome chapter too. Lots of funny interractions and all the stuff about Brooke is very interesting and promises a lot of good stuff to come.
But my favourite part is the spread with the island. I find the image beautifull. So British! XD
I can't wait for what the SHs will encounter there!Intirgued by that mouth as well, on page 16.
On a completely different note, that's quite lovely what Oda did with Nami…hair, clothes, earrings, necklace etc.
And off course, Usopp's outfit wins all!All in all, that's the One Piece I love!
-
nami is quite sexy right now
so is robin… -
Pwnage, downloading now!
Edit: Great chapter, looking forward to the scanlations. I predict that Brook has his shadow stolen by Blackbeard, and only if the Strawhats get it back, he'll join the crew. BTW, Brook pwned hard in this chapter.
Meh, it could happen.
-
Ah, so reassuring to see Franky in the crew. He's definitely the most colourful member yet. Although if Brook joins, how will Oda top that? crosses fingers, prays for Merfolk/Fishman crewmember
-
crosses fingers and hopes for another Nami-style charecter with less clothing
-
@IT'S:

No in water living creature tops Brook. Its way to predictable. If Oda wants to top him he needs to pull something even more unpredictable.
-
I still rather wish that a Marine deserter would join the Straw Hats, someone along the lines of Saul.
-
@Fire Fist:
WEST Blue. It's probably an Island Whale like Laboon with an island on its back. I put a theory up about that.
Yeah I kind of put up this same theory in the Spoiler section before I saw any scans.
Possible true identity of the roaming ghost island… "Thriller Park" that has no Log Pose and comes all the way from West Blue. The Irish Whale which is the largest whale from West Blue.
http://apforums.net/showpost.php?p=455389&postcount=448
Although now that I have seen the chapter I'm more inclined to believe that Thriller Bark is a floating island inside of the Irish Whale. Kind of like how Laboon had an inside large enough to appear as if it were still outside.
-
There's no whale of any type. If you check page 16 you can see that there are chains and machinary bolted to the teeth. Also, Brooke tells the crew to
Right now you should hurry up to the back of the boat and rise the gate so you can somehow escape!!
So, it's just a gate controlling the entrance to the island. If they were inside a whale, brooke would have told them as he has been here before, presumably when he lost his shadow.

i totally agree! blackbeard totally took brooke's shadow, however inadvertently. maybe was even the one that killed his crew. can't be a coincidence that we just learned of BB's devil fruit ability, the sucking in of anything and everything, including shadows. brooke will totally join after they beat blackbeard (possibly save ace), get his shadow and he can go out into the sun again.
oda-san is a f-ing genius. i didn't think he could make a better character than franky, and then pow! he pops out brooke. can't wait to see how he fights.
-
So Brooke is also a musician, eh? Oh Oda, how you can constantly get away with the crew conveniently running into everything they want and not have the fans rag on your ass astounds me. But in a good way, of course.
Thriller Barque looks great. I love these little arcs that get sandwiched in between the mega ones; this almost feels like Jaya, only with Franky and a great big helping of Tim Burton. BADASS.
-
oh, and the sinker, the PROOF that brooke is going to join:
he was the MUSICIAN on his old ship!!!!
hasn't luffy being asking for a musician since day one!?
-
He hasn't played yet. It could turn out that he is a really lousy.
-
I've just cross-checked martigan's translation of the script. There were some lines missing in the Japanese script which weren't translated in consequence. Even so, alltogether it's highly accurate and very good.
–
So first of all, it really should be "Thriller Bark" instead of "Thriller Park". I'm not sure, if "Bark" or "Barque" would be the correct term, but at least I'm almost certain that it's neither "Burg" (because Burg would be バーグ) nor "Park" (that would be パーク).Page 003 When Zorro scolds Nami and Sanji for letting Luffy run wild, they say "We're abashed". So they're saying they're sorry, not admitting that Brook is a fun guy!!
Note: The kanji on Usopp's flag reads "Evil spirit dispersion" (悪霊退散), which he chanted earlier.
Page 004 Before crying for dinner I think Brook says something that's more like "Since I'm a gentleman, I love such moments as 'waiting for the meal', and… DIIIINNER DIIINNER" (The stress of the joke is that he claims to like the wait so you'd expect him to be patient but he actually isn't on the next page… just a nuance)
Page 005 After crying for dinner Brook adds "Chef!! Milk for drinks, please!!"
(also saying "Yay" and "C'mon" while making a ruckus)The last two panels of this page:
Sanji: "Well, the expelling of the skeleton is postponed. For the time being, eat!"
Luffy: "Hnmmahooo! Hey Brook, eat till you choke, Sanji's cooking is the best!!"
Brook: "I'm a little...!! Rather than choking on food I choke up my tears" (dunno, does this sound like an adequate pun? I think Brook is making a pun that involves him being emotional because of the food. Luffy says "Eat till you're full" and Brook answers "rather than my stomach, my chest is full" while trembling. Correct me if I'm completely wrong)Brook: "Miss, your meat is a little big. Would you like to switch with mine?"
Sanji: "THERE ARE SECONDS SO EAT YOUR OWN"Note: Yomi yomi no mi seems to be derived from both the Underworld "Yomi" (黄泉)and "yomigaeru" (蘇る/甦る) = "to be resurrected, revived).
Page 006 While Brook explains his past, he disrupts his speech twice by saying "Excuse me, GEPPU/BU-!!" (<- Is he burping or sneezing or something…?) and I think Sanji mentions something like "Wow you're really into this manners thing".Page 007 After Brook talks about his eyes and about wandering in the fog for one year in search of his body:
Luffy: "Wow you're such an idiot! You're just like Zoro, nahaha!"
Zoro: "Hey."In the panel where Franky states that being resurrected even as a skeleton was the scary part of this Devil's Fruit:
Sanji: "It's half a curse"
Franky: "Plus that this fruit fulfils its task in making you unable to swim"Page 008 (I'd just like to add that he still says "please" while screaming. "Cut it out" is so rude considering that Brook is a gentleman.)
Note: Instead of "DOOOON", Brook's sound effect is literally "BOOOOOONE", as a pun. If this hasn't been noted before.
Page 013 "People are happy" should be "People are happiness/joy/gratification/pleasure", and "if they wouldn't evaporate" should be "if I was still able to cry"
–
And it is noteworthy that Brook speaks a very polite Japanese, in contrast to everybody else. -

Actually, in place names, "バーク" is used as "burg", so the name is probably "Thrillerburg".

This post is deleted!

Well, there are ferris wheels and stuff in the background, so it's like a theme park or a carnival, which are considered parks, so it actually is more like a Thriller Park.
-
So is the Yomi-Yomi fruit paramecia? I don't really see how it fits into any of the categories but paramecia is the most broad so I figure that would be the best guess.
-
It's definitly paramecia. I don't see how it could be anything else.
-
Luffy's excited over a musician.
Usopp's doing his Mihawk impression.
The ultimate "Thriller" music video is now set in place.This chapter has everything.
-
Yeah, I liked how Chopper and Usopp became Vampire Hunter E so quickly, especially since they were worshiping Shinto the last chapter.
-
Actually, in place names, "バーク" is used as "burg", so the name is probably "Thrillerburg".
May I request an example?
As far as I know "Burg" is a German word (meaning "castle"). I'm living in a city named "Hamburg" myself. I'd understand if it was transliterated to "ブルク" instead of "ブルグ". Since apparently, in Japanese, the transliteration of German "g"-sounds is sometimes made with a "k"-sound. For instance: Don Krieg = クリーク. I'd have expected it to be "クリーグ", but alas it's not.
If you know more about these phonetics of absorbed words in Japanese, please tell me!
