Great-looking cover. I like Koala's brown hair more, though.
Volume 75 Predictions/Discussion
-
-
It could be funny to troll a new One Piece reader: "This is how Nami's gonna look like after the time-skip". Hell, it's actually plausible with the way she dressed in the early part of the series. One thing is turning Koala into another Nami face (her eyes used to be fully outlined, now they're half outlined, and what happened to her distinct mouth wrinkles/cheeks?), another thing is giving her the exact same hair color. It isn't dangerous to make a female character a brunette, Oda.
Oh, that was today's petty complaining (except for the fact that it's also about time for Robin to appear on a cover after 11 volumes, but maybe volume 76 since she isn't really that important in this one). Otherwise, I'm actually really fond of the cover's composition and choice of characters. Some of the best we've had in a long time.
-
Burgess and Pica do not have the same body or hair. Pica doesn't even have a haircut.
Their outfits aren't even close to being the same. Literally, the only thing they have in common is that they're both wearing speedos and gloves.
Pica has a helmet. That's standard gladiator wear.I don't recall Oda coloring Burgess before.
I think you're looking too hard to find similarities.

[/hide]Let's see…
They totally don't have same huge-torso-super-huge-arms-very-small-legs bodytype, aren't wearing similar huge belt with abodoment protection and gloves/sandals, not hiding their faces behind mask/helmet and aren't spotting same length long wavy hair. Nu-uh, not at all. -
I'll just say I'm in love with Kyros' color scheme.
-
awesome cover.. i love that kyros' cape is red.. as well as pica's color scheme.. he looks like he's brother from another mother with burgess.. :p
-
I thought Pica was Burgess at first on the cover. I'm not making some "clever" remark about how they look similar; I genuinely thought he was Burgess at first.
I thought Pica would have blonde hair and Koala would be wearing darker colors. I do like the orange dress, though. It reminds me of orange creamsicle flavored desserts.

Is it just me or are the covers a bit… uninspired lately? I mean they look good, but compared to...

Nu-uh, not at all.LOL no. Gee, they're both muscular with armour and purple hair - I guess they must be identical!
Law and Luffy are also twins, they both wear hats and have black hair.Anyway, don't agree with Koala's hair colour but otherwise love the cover.
-
Just realized with this cover. Law's handcuffs shouldn't restrict his arms like they does now.
!
The chain seems quite long. Well I might be seeing things…
More importantly, Burgess is Pica's long lost brother. What's the matter with it ? -
i got myself a copy of volume 68 simply because of its cover!
-
Is Law sulking in this cover?
I need this chapter just for the cover.
And rofl at Burgess and Pica being bros.
Sabo SUCH BLUE MAJESTY <3
I like Koala's colour scheme and anyone saying she's basically pretimeskip Nami NEEDS A KICKU TO DA FACE because she's more of a mega cutie than Nami ever was >:U Sure Nami had her qt moments den but srsls. Koala is just. More Qt and more badass in my eyes. And dat colour scheme. Hggnnn. They seem to like their colour schemes in the Revolutionary Army huh? Blue Sabo, Red Koala, Green Dragon, Purple/Pink Ivankov… what next? -
@Al!naJames:
huge-torso-super-huge-arms-very-small-legs bodytype, huge belt with abodoment protection and gloves/sandals, behind mask/helmet and aren't spotting long wavy hair.
I forgot about that cover.
Even then, there are dozens of characters in the series with that structure of body.
The bodies themselves look completely different.Their hair isn't the same length. Pica isn't wearing sandals. Anyone can wear gloves. You're grasping at straws with the helmet thing. You're grasping at straws with everything really.
You're crying because 2 characters have the similar hair color.
In case you didn't know, that actually happens.What are you going to do next? Cry because Sabo and Sanji have blonde hair and wear fancy clothes?
Go bang on Oda's door because Kuma and Franky are cyborgs who also share the same structure as Pica and Burgess?
Law and Luffy are also twins, they both wear hats and have black hair.
Law actually has blue hair.
-
Law sulking on the cover just makes it perfect, even with the odd choices in some coloring. While I like the red on Koala, it wasn't expected, and her hair color was even less so. Thankfully she doesn't look like our other orange-haired lady, but it's still hard not to make the comparison either way.

I dont think Oda would include Burgess and Pica in the same arc for no reason anymore. I mean, of all the blackbeard crewmates, all Burgess really had going for him in this arc is the coliseum/gladiator thing, but we've already seen that all of the crew could have worked in this kind of battle royale with such strange fighters, so why Burgess?

I think that maybe they are same race of people - Burgess and Pica
They both have abnormal bodies proportions and same hair colors. We have long legs, long arms, so maybe we can have big chests-small legs

Because "fighting champion" is Burgess' gimmick?
-
Burgess's arm-to-leg proportions really disturb me. Like, he has these huge arms but fairly average legs. It makes it seem like the growth of his legs has been stunted, and I just wonder "How can you walk like that?" It's disproportionate in a scary way.

ok maybe not as appropriate,
look up

Except it's pronounced " Gee-Zus" not "Hay-Zeus" and Burgess is an English family name. The only thing he has is the Luchador theme.

your sword pose looks good Luffy

Hey no need to spout nonsense. The problem isn't that they look alike. There isn't any character in the entire serie that looks more like Burgess than Pica. They do look alike (to the exception of the face, the voice and the spikes, which is already a lot alright) but again it's not the problem.
The problem IMO is that many guys consider their resemblance to be a flaw. Why ? I don't know, for me it isn't an issue.And Law's hair aren't blue. Or was it a joke ?
-

They don't look alike.
Their faces are completely different.They have a similar archetype to their bodies but so do dozens of other characters in the series. Like I mentioned before, the bodies themselves look completely different.
!
Pica is much more muscular, his shoulders are much bigger, he has spikes, his arms are longer, his hands are much bigger, their attire isn't even remotely similar.
And yes, the person who complained about it literally wrote in purple that they have the same hair color.
It appears that he doesn't know that everyone doesn't have a special hair color.
This is just as silly as getting upset that Luffy and Kyros have black hair.And Law's hair aren't blue. Or was it a joke ?
His hair is blue.

Sabo SUCH BLUE MAJESTY <3
I like Koala's colour scheme and anyone saying she's basically pretimeskip Nami NEEDS A KICKU TO DA FACE because she's more of a mega cutie than Nami ever was >:U Sure Nami had her qt moments den but srsls. Koala is just. More Qt and more badass in my eyes. And dat colour scheme. Hggnnn. They seem to like their colour schemes in the Revolutionary Army huh? Blue Sabo, Red Koala, Green Dragon, Purple/Pink Ivankov… what next?Yeah, you know I thought about Super Sentai when when I first saw the color scheme of the Revo's on the cover and to add on top of that is Hack, being yellow. I'm not sure about the Dragon thing but everything else is spot on. Super Sentai = Real Justice pfft.
–---------------------------
If I might add my 2 cents on the Pica and Burgess similarity though, I both agree and disagree.
I said this before that it's not just females who have the same body type, which most males in the series are buff. Males do have more variety but having the same size however, does not mean they have the same body type.
Pica has broader pecs, their abdomens are different, his legs are more toned, his forearms are wider and his shoulders are like boulders ().To help explanation, I'll put these two here.
Rolling Logan
[hide][/hide]Orlumbus
[hide][/hide]So what people are seeing are the hair style, the hair color, the mask and of course the body size/ratio.
It'd be quite absurd to say they have the same body though, you might as well go to the gym and tell two buff guys that are the same sizes that they have the same body.

But please try to read between the lines. You even start your post by telling what I wrote in the part you've quoted.
No one said that the resemblance is uncanny. They just look alike, that's it. And like I said, I don't think it's a bad thing anyway.
No need to list a second time all your arguments. You're trying to prove me that they aren't clones. I never said they were. They just look alike.I can recognize them without any problem bro. But Pica looks more like Burgess than any other character in the serie. Again I don't consider this to be a flaw, and I'm not complaining. So no need to defend Oda like you do. Nami and Burgess don't look alike. Pica and Burgess look alike.
Not because they are clones, just because they share a few similarities. -
It's a great cover, and I expect volume 76 to have a Donquixote Family cover, since they are so colorful and distinct.
Koala and Sabo are great, and Kyros' color scheme looks weird. -

It's worse on Kuma

Clean Volume 75 illustration.
-
The literal Birdcage in the background. Thanks for posting this redon. Can't wait to get a copy with some massive Pica action.
-
Didm't expect lavender clothes for Fujitora.
Even though the color lavender is closer to wisteria (fuji) than actual purple.
Can't wait to get a copy with some massive Pica action.
Hahaha…
-
well i like the cover
-
Man, the whole "Koala looks like Nami" thing really sticks out here.
-
Thats not nami? Lmao wow
-
Koala and Sabo look like Steampunk-Universe Nami and Sanji :O I'd love such a colorspread
-
Law is nearly positioned like a romance novel heroine.
-
This is my favourite volume cover in a while, it feels a lot less cluttered than some of the recent covers and the art is really good. It's also nice to finally get Fujitora coloured by Oda.
-
Law is nearly positioned like a romance novel heroine.
I thought dressrosa was all about the romance between luffy and law? I mean he's been carrying him like a captured princess for who knows how many chapters.
Also i do like the colour scheme for koala and sabo. Sabo is blue, Koala is red and hack is yellow
-
Nami secretly came back to Dressrosa dressed as Koala.:ninja:
-
Ok so this is what's going to happen in the next few chapters.
First Law and Luffy will fight against Trebol and DD, then Trebol will catch Luffy with his sticky stuff and DD will take a control over him with his strings.
Then it will be Trebol, Luffy and DD against Law, but Cabbage will come and take on Trebol.
After that DD will control Luffy and use him to defeat Law.
The last moment before getting knocked out Law will manage to cut the strings and set Luffy free.Then Luffy will defeat DD, extreme diff.
Source: Oda is my uncle.
-
Yeah, Koala's more roundish eyes and her mouth are less emphasized there (also, because of the angle I think), but it's still a pretty cool cover. Also, the cage in the background is a cool touch.
-
Big quality cover.
-
Clean Volume 75 illustration.
This is really cool. Is there a place I can get illustrations like this for other volumes?
And I suppose since this is a prediction thread and there's not really much left to predict I say this'll have chapters 743 - 752. Based on the pagecount it's prettymuch a given though. The Law flashback teaser will be a good cliffhanger for the book readers.
-
Cover from Shueisha website.
-
randomly checks batoto's OP page
wtf it's Fujitora <3 Finally, FINALLY that chubby bastard makes his long due appearance on a cover. Consider me a happy Enzeru now. -
Sabo looks great on this one… Still do not like his face...
-
I hope that there is something precious in Volume 75
We do not want more foolish questions -
you know you gonna get some silliness either way, so just try to enjoy the few good stuff.
