Dylcor, gotta question about em?
How about that 984? Love it so much.

Greg do you think that there might be a chance that Sanji will unlock his DNA powers somehow
Greg, or anyone who can give a quick recap of it as it seems like I wasn’t paying attention.
What is the deal with Oden’s journal? Is it something more than the framing device of the flashback?
Given how the flashback was presented, and specifically skipped over basically everything relating to getting to Laugh Tale, if Oden has any sort of in depth stuff on that or the story of Joy Boy or prophecy, that's… stuff.
It could ultimately be a very helpful narrative shortcut for skipping over some things and tying some threads together with minimal fuss.
Nope no questions!! I just finally got my hands on the luffy one, and thought it would be neat to see the process behind making them.
So far we only know that Chopper DF is Hito Hito no Mi, but never knew which model is unlike Sengoku is same type of DF but stated Model Daibutsu.
is there any possibility that Chopper DF got any special model of?
by looking at the Chopper human form, is not so much HUMANE to me. And his Monster Point, more likely is his DF Zoan pre-awakened form.
I've thought about this before. The big difference between people and Chopper in human form is his pronounced philtrum and how hairy he is. While other Zoan users do typically retain some resemblance to their non-df self, none do so as much as Chopper (though his hairiness isn't so far off from Page One and Queen having hair in their dino forms, I'm sure there are other examples). I figure it's more of an artistic choice than anything else and my presumption has been that he has the most basic Hito Hito no Mi.
What I do wonder if whether there are models for Fishmen, Tontatta, Mink, and other races in One Piece.
We aren’t other species of animals, we are human, so for us telling a reindeer from another would be hard. While it is much easier to tell people apart.
While I can easily see chopper being so strange in his full transformation an artistic choice, I think that the devil fruits aren’t capable of a true transformation and there has always been something uncanny valley with the full transformations of zoans, but we are only able to know it for human transformations. After all haven’t all zoans retained human speech in their full transformation? That is already a huge departure of the capabilities of a giraffe or a wolf.
Chopper is not interested in becoming more human, he identifies completely as a reindeer, so it seems unlikely to happen, but maybe there is more transformation possible further into the full zoan creature, tied to the self perception of the user.

So is the book of spoilers? I hope Oden was sensible enough to not leave the dangerous parts written down.

Oden? Sensible?
Uhm….
Oh, what about Momo eating a rumble ball? They should only work on chopper, but considering that momo is not a true devil fruit user, any number of excuses could work.

Oden? Sensible?
Uhm….
I know, there are huge levels of sense, but even Oden wouldn’t leave the secrets of the world in a dingy notebook, right? (Or that is just wishful thinking) If Yamato wasn’t an Oden Stan, the age of Kaido would have come a while ago.
With Robin's reading of the 3 Road PG, the other 2 reg. PG from Totland and the 1 in the capital, plus Oden's journal, the end of this arc can go really bad. Then again, Luffy can say fuck all that and just continue on with the journey.
I'm guessing Franky and Brook might run into the PG, since we're not caught up with them. Or will Yamato know where it is and show Luffy? He can't read it, so that wouldn't be immediately addressed. The Onigashima Road PG was brought up, but not exactly part of the raid plan, so that just might be skipped until the end.
Dylcor, gotta question about em?

Love it and Yamato.
Any plans to do a livestream about it?
Greg any reason Hitetsu doesn't play a role in the war ?
Manga has been on fire WB's appearance in the flashback aside from the Kaido-Oden fight. Onigashima chapters are incredible.
Greg what do you think happened to Sabo?
Sabo died again, he won't reappear for another 10 years, claiming amnesia.
Only if we’re lucky.
Jean Ango .
Remember the face he made when he saw all the thrown weapons in Chinjao?
I want Jack to make the exact same face during this raid.
It does feel that sabo is going full ace. But the difference will be that luffy will manage to save his brother this time in the final war, unlike ace.
I can’t wait for the moment in the manga when Usopp tells his enemy he has 8,000 soldiers with him, and then it turns out to be true
@uniaka:

Oda is often repetitive,but i hope this wont be the case. It would feel too much repetitive.
Hi Greg,
Do you think this scene below which was also referenced in the manga is the clearest indication from Oda that Zoro has CoC?
I don't think there was a scene like this in the manga.

Urashima does comment on Zoro's intensity at one point, but that's about it.
I don't think there was a scene like this in the manga.
There was, but mostly implied.
This could be a case of Oda telling the anime staff that Zoro will show conquerors haki later.
The scene was different in the manga so I don't know.
Couldn't Enma snitch some stuff about Laugh Tale thru the VOAT?
Greg any reason Hitetsu doesn't play a role in the war ?
Perhaps.
If Oda is holding him back due to some Tama connection/use, then yes. He's being held back to keep the reader distracted from any Tama development.
Greg what do you think happened to Sabo?
Hopefully not captured?
And if he is captured, please….PLEASE let the Grand Fleet handle it?
We had a Robin rescue.
And Ace rescue.
A Sanji rescue.
I dunno if my contrivance-o-meter could handle another rescue at this point.
Hi Greg,

A fair question thanks to stuff like Laugh Tale etc.
It could very easily be the anime running with something they know to be a fact but keeping it ambiguous or (in the same vein) knowing something to be complete BS but running with it because it creates discussion among fans. Both results are….kinda childish but due to the trollish nature of them, I get the feeling Oda gets a kick out of that ambiguity.
The Monet intimidation before the slash w/o Haki and the filler moment w/ Yasuie seems more like hints at CoC than that moment that Toei chose to expand on. If he was born with it, there are moments to look back at where his disposition being highlighted as above the rest.
Well, I see Sanji's indifference to his family's royal ways + his sensitivity to women as strong disposition as well anyway.
Zoro has or will have CoC for sure.
Hopefully not captured?

At this point, I think there might be a Hancock-Vivi-Sabo rescue arc, perhaps as the trigger of the final arc.
I aleays picture the last arc being a rescue Luffy or Robin thing where the government get them as a desperate attempt to silence the truth and we Marineford 2.0

Why? Zoro's ambition is to be the world's greatest swordsman. Do you think Mihawk has it? I'm not sure. If Mihawk has it then I'll be sure Zoro will have it.
If sabo is captured, I don’t see luffy going to save him. Sabo was gonna declare war on the world government. Revolutionary army probably is gonna attack marijoa and end up rescuing, or at least attempting to rescue, him.

After marineford, I imagine luffy understood that he is not ready to take on WG until he becomes pirate king. Or news won't reach luffy.
@uniaka
When people told Luffy to stop and just go to the ship, he instead went straight for Fujitora at the end of Dressrosa. I don't see Luffy refusing to take on the WG for the reason that you stated. Yes, Fuji is just 1 Admiral, but Luffy's reason for going to clash with him makes it seem that he doesn't think the way that you feel he does
Greg any way New Onigashima Project is based on the video game of the same name ? Found some interesting similarities
Only thing I know about that game is that lead girl was in Captain Rainbow.
Greg, how moved were you when you first realized that Luffy’s punches are finally like pistols?
That was more like an explosion and Yamato also had something to with that; clearly.

He’s added explosive firepower to his armament. Firearm, pistol, tomato, tomahto.
Check out his kick in 981. Remember? Eustass Kid remembers.

I already responded to this in the other thread; I think the cause of that explosion was the projectile.

Fair enough. Example #3 :)
I think there’s strong evidence.
That was Ulti…it's straight up said in the last panel of that page.

Maybe. But interestingly enough, no credible source has pointed to the origin of that powerful blast. Weak henchmen assume Ulti but they lack credibillity — they clearly can’t sense haki.
In fact, the headbutt triggered Ulti and Page One’s transformations despite trivializing their encounter with Luffy moments prior.
Luffy’s sheer strength / ambition put them on alarm. The Tobi Roppo realized who they were up against; his rep had nothing to do with their assessment.

A big part of Ulti's characterization is that she is headstrong like Luffy; she becomes a "Pachycephalosaurus"… need I say more?
That sounds terrible.

What has the ambition to do with it?
And I think it's not about the ambition but how much he is into it.
But hey what was Katakuri's ambition?

If you look at the characters that are/were confirmed to have it; they are/were "leaders".
I'm not trying to say I'm convinced Zoro wont get it but going by the type of characters that have had it so far… I wouldn't bet on it.
ONE PIECE editor Takano revealed in live streaming that he was moved to tears after he read next chapter (986).
It was the first time for him to shed tears since he became OP editor.
OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
Hope it isnt just a classic way to hype things and something big will actually happen. And i also hope that after this break we come back to the regular schedule,because i am tired of these breaks.
Hopefully something really tragic or big is shown, otherwise I might feel this is just a hype up lol
well I'm already hyped
