      So I was thinking about where that possibly could have come from if anywhere at all and as it turns out in the 1980's there was a animation (a quite popular one) called Muteking. (The joke being on muteki) and the theme song even has the long absurd extensions. Here he is folks, Muteking in all his 80's glory.

      No matter where you go, there you are.

        Oh, that's interesting! I like finding out about Oda's inspirations.

        (The most bizarre one to me is Spiders cafe/Bagdad cafe)

        muteking? I wonder if that's foghorn-king or invincible-king . Oh wait, that's kind of obvious. 🙂

          That looks somewhat like a cartoon that you watch when you were a little kid…did that Muteking guy have any powers??

            Well he is muteking ^o^ I dunno, I found a huge summary page about the show but didn't read about him. It came up with a Google image search so have fun. I doubt any of his [sogeking's] attributes come from this though.

              does sogeki mean anything? or is it just soge for sniping?
              well, it is highly possible that Oda thought about that muteking when he created sogeking.

              btw, sorry but i don't know what means muteki at all…

                狙撃 そげき sogeki - means sniping

                無敵 むてき muteki - means invincible

                    this guy looks nothing like the sogeking.

                    even the mouseking has more similarity:

                      That's right Gunther. We're talking about the Japanese used in naming and the theme song. :rolleyes:

                          We're entering spam territory so I'll just say, I'm not sure if you just didn't get across what you wanted to say in English, but coming up with:

                          this guy looks nothing like the sogeking.

                          would suggest that someone inferred he did resemble Muteking. Ok? 🙂

                            i just said that the mouseking looks more like sogeking than the muteking.

                              So you're suggesting that Oda should've deliberately ripped off the design if he wanted anyone to get the reference ? 😛

                                Damn, he's going far back. I've figured it out. Eichiro Oda is insane. One Piece came about from a drug trip, there's no other explanation possible.

                                  I think Guenther just had that funny mouseking picture and wanted to make a joke. You guys take stuff way too seriously.

                                    general internet rule: the ':P' smiley typically means you're not taking the subject seriously. It's hard to tell if someone's being serious or not if they don't slap one in their post…
