This chapter and the feels is insane man, jump rope with kaido and the way luffy got to reshape his body in response to the uncoming blow is incredible or was it more along the line of his body reshaping after the impact. But all the excitement aside, was momo's haki always this good before we got to see him use it on onigashima…his feat of being able to feel the previous rooftop battle to the extent he did and its range considering which floor he was on is right up there with the very best...yamato could nt tell what was going on, on the roof, even sanji had to ask how luffy was doing when he got broken bones zoro from law. Now recently we saw Marco, law, hyogorou nt sure the spelling, sanji and again momo feeling luffy heart beat..the kid is great, plot wise what ever happens from here or even when the climax and impending doom arrives right before kaido is put down for real, the resolution of what he chooses to do will be such a fascinating turn to his characterization.

RE: Chapter 1,044: Warrior of Liberation
Luffy is not an underdog and has never been an underdog. /QUOTE]
Crocodile, katakuri and kaido to me are the only 3 fights I would say he was the under dog…every other opponent seemed to have been held back by either circumstance or conviction.

RE: Chapter 1,044: Warrior of Liberation
This chapter is unbelievable, super excited for the next. Luffy is one of the best protagonist in fiction to me at least not even so much because of any ideals or ambitions but just as a result of who he is and how he goes about in his goofy goodness, the comedy to one piece was always what I enjoyed the most and the theme of freedom so intimately intertwined with comedy that makes sense to me as far as the alternate name reveal and nothing about the other name of the GGf makes it any less stretchy….names are given based on what abilities are given by the fruits, well until we learn more about the fruits anyway

RE: Chapter 1,040: Wasted Words On Young Ears
Perhaps the way the war unfolded and in particular the display by the flying six and calamities is a reflexion on the growth of the strawhats on the premise of battle, but everyone has grown case on point chopper and his medical expertice as im very interested in what more chopper will do medically, usopp is an excellent cowardly marksman but an out and out war is not going to be his niche unless he can find a high place to snipe mooks. I get the feeling that the performance of the strawhats in particular might be a stage setter for other massive conflicts about to unwrap in the new world involving, the strawhats. I look at someone who had such expectation and promise in X drake who lost to the CP0, at Apoo who ran away when he figured they were serious, if those are the people who are to be the next set of opponents the strawhats face then where they are makes sense.
The pirate world entered an age of chaos following whitey's death but the status quo as law mentioned back in Punk Hazard had been stagnant….kid went out and fought as much as he did....but the established order were all seemingly just building up forces mostly numerical (Beast pirates) or on promise big mom and science ; giantification and germa tech) with exception of BB(battles, wars, devil fruit hunting). They (the status quo) are strong but how challenged were they? This was also a surprise attack, an ambush, lot of things went well for the protagonist allied forces. If they did not no way they would win and would any reader really be satisfied, this is fiction not everything need to be thoroughly explained or explainable. Even in the real world more things are left unresolved and shrouded in mystery than those things that has been figured out. Still its amzing that Kid and law actually toppled big mom in an actual battle, and similarly to their first win over her when they were able to send her in free fall towards the sea. This is excellent for characters like usopp amd nami who will never be as powerful but will be as capable...and validates Joker's advise to law about ways to defeat a stronger enemy. In one piece its seemingly always the hungriest, most stubborn, most persistent folks with that will to do and the never die attitude always conquer especially the arrogant powerful, croc in alabasta, big mom in Wano. What next for big mom will be something to see but i believe what next for sanji and his body and zoro and his current situation will both be more fascinating to see and read. Luffy's state post kaido is yet to be seen if he will be only as tired as law and kidd or as damaged as zoro or as tired and damaged? Repercusion and its impact on the story, Momo and the scabbards, yamato, and marco, as i think all of these characters will have a big role to play in; keeping the straw hats safe from world gov agents and, showcasing to the world that wano is powerful enough to stand their ground.
One piece critism has it reasons but to me, what it stands for still echo that sentiment from its earlier days....freedom and the exercise of power in an oppresive world where pathologies of power is dismantled in multiple ways including physically and at times mentally, emotionally...a fictional story where you can see that there are elements for everyone....those who focus on the aspects where they critic, some the battle and the battle prowess of various characters, some the mysteries, some the plot, many the puzzle, trying to figure it out before it reveals it self and still others the adventure of it all. The way it is relatable to our world, places like Nami's home, like Alabasta, set ups like WCI as far as the soul payment goes and the "price" people pay to live in some places in the world, the setup in wano. The villains too WCI its up and downs like most places...Orochi that snake, his childhood and his character...can he be empthasized with? What will momo and Hiyori decide with him? Will he be left to view the entire beast pirate organization crumble and burn to the ground as Onigashima itself burns?

RE: Next Straw Hat Crewmates (Vol. 9 - Yamato vs. The World)

RE: Next Straw Hat Crewmates (Vol. 9 - Yamato vs. The World)
[the mere thought of Vivi as a villain could shift the main culprit of kingslaying from the government to "the Princess who wanted to usurp the throne with the help of pirates".[/QUOTE]
But would the world buy that considering said princess is next in line for the throne, only child which is way different from stelly's rise. And her father being seeminly very sick unless dr kureha had a look before the incident. Framing sabo would be great on their part as painting their enemy, (revs) as this evil set of people who just crazily goes about overthrowing governments etc but why frame the princess whose motive to kill her father is to usurb a throne that is already waiting on her, seems too weak but who knows…the rest with wapol seems fine saying vivi and dalton is in league with the strawhats etc.
I look forward to seeing the diplomatic side of one piece which i believe vivi is going to be a major player with momo and some of the others...wano opeing its borders to the world.. deals with fish man island etc

RE: Chapter 1,027: Danger Beyond Imagining
"Yamato once remarked she learned of Ace's death by reading Oden's journals…which would entail Oden somehow had explicit knowledge of future events related to Ace's death. "
Do you remember chapter and panel? From my memory of the way she learned about Ace's death from a news paper or so, i am convinced you are mixing up something here. Mixing up her knowledge on strong new characters showing up and thinking the leader would be ace till he told her the same line roger also said and then later his death confirming luffy to be the one to lead the new strong, young pirates. Chapter 999 and 1000.

RE: Next Straw Hat Crewmates (Vol. 8 - Onigashima)
Might be cause I got stronger memories from the anime about EL, but I vaguely recall Franky disliked piracy in general because he was abandoned by his pirate father.
He did say something like that and he was asked by oden when Roger and his crew were there in water seven.
-
RE: Chapter 1,007: Mr. Raccoon Dog
My wild card for the oden part is the work of Hawkins. He could have fit the silloute seen before and his voodoo cards/ devil fruit could be at play here, with the recovery of the 9 scabbards and the appearance of oden. Could be one of his wild cards. How he knows what oden look and sounds like might be an good question but what if its a case of only the 9 scabbards seeing this oden. Afterall all the real oden in flesh and spirit might have gone to rescue momo from danger after hearing the transmission, or fight off Jack or head directly for the roof. He does not seem to be the one who bandaged up his men.

RE: Next Straw Hat Crewmates (Vol. 8 - Onigashima)
seemed to me like you were drawing comparison between carrot and tama, carrot who up until jack arrived seemed to have lived pretty secure and worry free.
you also forgot when drake attacked her village, ruined it and slaughtered the samurai protecting. I'm pretty most citizens of wano are constantly fearing for the life, either by starvation or by the gun.
Slaughtered?? XDrake looks too much like a pacifist (Diez Barrel if i recall correctly described him as strong but soft), to go around slaughtering. If his handling of caribou says anything perhaps these 5 samurai might be apart of the udon group.

RE: Chapter 1,004: Millet Dumplings
People see things based on how they are conditioned to. So while its been surprising the way some have responded to Tama's ability and her decision to be proactive, its fascinating to see their reasons although i can't bring my self to agree with them. I give credit to Oda, willingly or not, the way he consistently gives the one piece community substance to analyse and
argue, and nit pick this is just amazing. I am really enjoying the war, its perhaps not as intense as could be but heck… the strawhats n worst generation are not such green horns...they are, that "disaster" to their enemies, the "miracle workers" as law described the strawhats back in dressorosa. Its also the first time the strawhat's in particular gets to actually band together fully in the new world, since fishman island and they have grown so their performance is good, they are keeping up, franky can hold his own against sasaki, although it will be tougher when he goes hybrid....nami n usopp knows all about ulti n pay pay. Robin, jimbei, brook. Doctor chopper. And its crazy, what will be Hawkins decision, he was checking on that man for a reason, the last five numbers, Jack, and queen n king..who actually deals with the worst of the worst of the beast pirates, as well as who is the person actually in charge of security in kaido's crew as far as the eye sees? Kaido and bigmom as good as the 5 superstars have done... they still gonna have to push aside their mountains to win this. Its all crazy. And its going to be even crazier come the dawn of the new day in "Wano". The ciper pol surely not just gonna wish that pirates weaken each other if they can't capitalize on it, but what will they do, go after the weapons?? What will they do? -
RE: Chapter 1,001: Battle of Monsters on Onigashima
Nezummi or what ever his name is called, the rat marine captain from arlong's arc who is the reason the marines even got wind of Luffy to give him his first bounty and said luffy will become big, after 1000 chapters and this monumental arc and saga, it would be cool to see what his reaction is seeing how big luffy have gotten in all truth.

RE: Chapter 995: A Kunoichi's Oath
This usopp and nami duo still in the fight. Im impressed they have not lost consciousness after a few headbutts. This war is shaping up nicely to me. Queen trying to eliminate the number two's and three's should be something else. The explosions everywhere. This ladies and gentlemen is war unfolding. Luffy did not make an appearance. The fact that so deep into the series, the debate and conversation details…speaks volumes about oda's work. Tama introduction and marco's role is something im looking forward to.
-
RE: Chapter 990: Army of One
I just heard someone mention that Drake was the one who destroyed Tama's village. I had forgotten that detail. So Luffy might actually start next chapter by punching him in the face and require more convincing to accept him.
With bege it was the matter of hurting his friend, pekoms. This time its just for destroying a village. Not sure about that. Its different this time.
-
RE: Chapter 990: Army of One
This wano war is the biggest event the stawhats have taken part in the series. To me going after their first yonko, in a very luffish manner head on. After starting the assualt all the way back in punk hazard. The scope of this battle is immense, and its repercussions on a already chaotic world.
The crew and the crew's perspective which we are viewing is pretty cool but the big bad is relishing the challenge as he said to luffy bring it on few chapters back. He and his top two are yet to actually flex.They the alliance, are still out gunned, and this could get worst when the big mom pirates do make their entrance. Big mom might have been temporarily pushed to the side but a yonko infront you and a yonko behind you is daunting.
The shadow of the world government is also in the shadows. The cpo demand for weapons has to he important. They were willing to come directly n sit and talk with orochi. This certainly to me seem pretty cool. I don't see the strawhats losing but they could come out the losers in certain scuffles within the war. The war is not gonna have any pauses. It does not make sense. Although the writer could do it if he chose to. To meOnigashima seems as big as marineford with at least two layers. And big enough for the battles Looking from where queen n king was n the two numbers that luffy n drake knocked down. I can see danger spilling to wanokuni mainland via king and kaido… but i don't see any reason why the war it self needs to move to wano, that is the battle field. Onigashima is going to be the battle field. We have the representatives from wano on onigashima. Both those loyal to Oden n those who served orochi. More than that.. i see no reason why video den den mushi can't be turned on eventually for the mother land as luffy and kaido finished off the war. Which might be over the flower capital. Im looking forward to this war. And who will stop who. How kid n law will make it to the top. When they will. How much of a role drake will play.

RE: Chapter 985: The New Onigashima Project
I believe big mom is gonna be handled by the supernovas with help now and again from marco, but they won't defeat her. Only her pride. The strawhats will be the one to take out bigmom if she goes down this arc.. The supernovas who face big mom will do so in part due to pero pero. He is going to be cause of discord with the beast pirates. Luffy, kid, yamato and law will be the four going against kaido predominantly.
This war will extend to wanokuni, luffy will lose some more round or rounds but the war is not gonna break off. Only battles will be lost, won n paused temporarily.

RE: Chapter 985: The New Onigashima Project
I haven't been able to reply to everyone (Wagomu being one) on the spoiler thread but since Im on the train I may as well say put this here.
Oda while very knowledgeable on a broad range of topics in the real world cannot be expected to know about psychological research done by mainly American researchers in terms of gender, misgendering or it's effects on people. You cannot expect someone who works in Tokyo 20 hours a day to have read academic research on gender pronouns. It is unfair. Regardless of the research being accurate or not.
My next point leads to, what you see as an issue in this chapter is only an issue for English speakers, not Japanese speakers. Japanese speakers do not have any issue whatsoever when it comes to "misgendering" or "Using an incorrect pronoun" the same way we do.This is why:
Words like "you" aren't commonly used and instead is replaced by the persons name. When referring to a person or character you dont use the word 彼(he) or 彼女(she), you instead use the name of that person. So when Japanese refer to Yamato, they say Yamato. Genius right?
We use he or she but using it in Japanese the same way we do is unnatural, even though it is not entirely incorrect.If you do not know the person, you do not call them HE(彼) or SHE(彼女. You call them THAT person. (その人). If you know the person you call them by their name. Its sort of rude to say "You" in Japanese. Example:
He is sitting outside.
"彼"は外に座ってる。(Sentence using "he" which is unnatural and no one uses this rather, they use the one below).
"その人"は外に座ってる"。This is using "that person" (Literally translated). That person is sitting outside.When a Japanese person reads the manga and they see that someone like Kiku is a woman at heart but then see that Izo and Kiku are brothers, they say in their head "oh that's interesting". But when they go to refer to these characters they dont talk about whether they are a he or she or what pronoun to use because Japanese IS NOT English, they use the persons name instead. People fail to understand this and blame Oda for not being a good author.
Misgendering is a subjective linguistical issue that does not affect Japanese when using he or she. Everyone here on the this chapter thread is worried about using he or she or which is correct or worrying about the characters feelings. Japanese do not feel this an issue for reasons stated above.
What I take from the Japanese: Use the persons name.Nice, im now picturing you like shanks and his speech's impact at marinford.

RE: Theories That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread v.2
Yamato is an escaped level six prisoner, Who was among those whom did not go with blackbeard. He did not see luffy when, luffy came looking for ace but heard it all and then disliked blackbeard way but appreciate the chance to escape. He kept an eye open on the accomplishments of luffy and started what ever he was planning since punk hazard.

RE: Chapter 973: The Kozuki Clan
Nobody should be certain of the fact that Raizou made it to Zhou. Kinemon and co. lost sight of him in the shipwreck. Those on land, who saw the event could only hope that Raizou made it. But the way Jack was so sure of Raizou being there, it strongly implied that he had Raizou's vivre card.So, again anybody can be the mole( including Raizou).
Well certainly we don't know everything as yet, but the ppl chasing the samurai might have been jack n his cronnies. Any vivre card of Raizo, n the other 3 would lead jack directly to that person. What we have seen up to now has been from us n the strawhats seeing n hearing what happened from the point of view of the samurai, but from the beast pirates point of view who knows what they saw. What happened to the ones chasing kin and the others after that shipwreck did they just turn around or what? Im just saying that a possible reason why Jack seemed so sure, might be because he or some one trusted enough under his command might have seen Raizo drift towards the elephant or maybe seen him climbing it. Ofc the mole could be anyone, but does nt mean he has to be implicated here.
-
RE: Chapter 973: The Kozuki Clan
Was it not said by kinemon that they was chased before the shipwreck that divided them? If so the traitor might not be responsible for that info being public that raizo made it to Zou. If there is a traitor i doubt he was in that group. The traitor if there really is one could be someone who was kidnapped and made to submit to kaido kinda like killer.

RE: Theories That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread v.2
@.access:
Ok, ok, ok, I think I got it. I think I got it.
You know, one thing I never understood was why Teach wanted so hard to get to Impel Down. We were told everything he did in the manga was so he could get there. He wanted to become a Warlord so he could have easy access to one of the Marine vessels and go to Impel Down, that's why he hunted down Luffy first and then changed his target to Ace: so he could get in good terms with WG and be granted the Warlord title.
The problem is we were told the reason why he wanted to get to Impel Down so hard was to find some strong crew members.
I mean… really? It's not even like he was after some specific names, he just went there and had them fight among each other and took the strongest with him. I don't know, but that sounds like an awfully weak reason for all that, just to get a bunch of non-specific strong people under him. There was no reason for him to go through such a roundabout plan instead of just seeking strong free pirates.
So what was Teach really looking for in Impel Down? My guess is that he was looking for a former member of the Roger Pirates. Not one specifically, just any of them.
As we saw in Oden's flashback, all the RP members know Laugh Tale's location, so any and each of them is incredibly valuable. The problem is, with the exception of Shanks, all of them vanished. Rayleigh, Gaban, Crocus, even Buggy disappeared after the crew disbanded.
Shanks was the only RP that remained, but there was the minor problem he was an Emperor. He was way too poweful, way beyond the level someone like Teach (or anyone really) could simply force to comply. Actually, it's likely Teach tried that at some point but failed, with Shanks scar being the only proof of the attempt.If you wanted to find one of the remaining guys, where better to look than Impel Down? If the WG had one captive, sure they would be kept on Level 6. So Teach did all that not to get some fine crew members, but actually hoping his living map to Laugh Tale would be waiting for him inside that prison. Well, he was wrong, even the WG had no idea where the Roger Pirates went.
Obviously, that was true only until Marineford and the reveal this nobody pirate the WG always knew was acting in East Blue (but never bothered about because fuck East Blue) was actually a former member of Roger crew.
That was big news and the WG instantly made they move: we saw they sent Buggy an invitation to become a Warlord as soon as the fight in Marineford was over. They called dibs on that as fast as fucking possible - I suppose locking him didn't seemed like a good option now, after multiple pirates invaded Impel Down and Buggy himself supposedly orchestrated a break out, so the best second option was to keep him under their surveilance.Suddenly another former Roger Pirate was found, but if Shanks was unreachable due to his power, Buggy was unreachable because he had the World Government supporting him.
That managed to keep Teach at bay for two years. Until now, when the Warlord system was disbanded. Immediate action from the Marine was to send a fleet to capture each former Warlord. On that same chapter we had Teach saying he was going to get "it" before the Marine did, and we assumed he was talking about one of the ancient weapons or something related to the Alabasta or Sabo... but what if he was talking about Buggy?
Obviously Buggy would gladly welcome the protection of an Emperor and telling him the location of Laugh Tale in exchange for his life would be just fair.
And all that would be revealed by the end of Wano. After both Linlin and Kaido have been taken down and it seems Luffy is at the top of the world, we'll find out Teach is already marching towards Laugh Tale and Shanks is on his way to fight
and be killed byhim.There you have it. Don't tell Oda or he will change his plans. If things don't happen like this, I will just assume you people leaked it to Oda…
This was a good read but buggy did not seem to be in the room when Gaban n the others was finding the exact coodinates in chapter 967 cause he got that illness. He also did not actually go to that island. If he had the info on where it is, he would have gone and get that treasure already is what i believe. I wonder if shanks actually knows where it is?

RE: Theories That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread v.2
The most that Luffy would do is beat a Fleet Admiral and that hardly makes him win a war against the WG. That is what the Revo is for.

ok…... why do you think that?

RE: Chapter 843: Vinsmoke Sanji
There is more to sanji stance than meets the eye. but how nice would it be if luffy told one of his nakama stop with the shit…im strawhat luffy.., you are part of my crew...lets f..k up those in our way.
-
RE: Theories That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread v.2
I got a new idea for Sanji's power up.
Instead of using his hands, he could develop his "outer skeletons" and other genetic features (more flames :p ).
We got a late developing experiment and some development utilities and liquids in one room together.
His brothers might forcefully seal him in one of the units to hurt him.That would allow him to overtake them in terms of strength.
while this chapter raises the plausibility of sanji getting this exoskeleton… atleast withing the minds of the fan base.....i think Sanji will not go down that route... sanji brothers spirit seem so weak.... imo and that limits their exoskeleton. considering how valueable spirit is.. somehow cracker's speech to luffy should have been given to the vinsmokes..... about someone always being stronger...
there might be more to his(sanji) genetic makeup.... but power up...sanji most likely has yet to show what he can really do... i think our idea of strengh sometimes reflect the vinsmokes... they will be shocked when school teacher luffy is done with WCI. so much recalculating to do. similar to that scientist in one punch man.

RE: Chapter 835: The Nation of Souls
I think luffy will need his fleet's aid to come out in one piece from big mom territory, unless there is a rebellion in mom's territory(would be a joy to see the fleet riding the ocean waves with the sunny leading, as lesser pirates tremble, the authorities sweat… big mom by all accounts have been crushed and the strawhat fleet is heading towards the location where scouts are keeping an eye on kaido... the reactions on world leader faces... Germa and the vinsmokes was part of the collateral).
But regardless of how insanely powerful big mom is, i feel sorry for her... she's antagonising the worst person possible in the Op verse... things look bad for the stawhat... but it will be interesting to see how things get flipped and the ones with their backs against the wall reversed.....

@.access:
I don't know what to expect. Luffy is going to enter a route that "only BM kids know". If it is an exclusive route, so you expect they will be taking it and they are more than 80. With the wedding about to happen, you would expect this route to be crowded with BM daughters and sons, so there should be plenty of opportunities for fights. Problem is, Luffy aside, who in that group should be able to hold their own against a Yonkou officer right now?
Unless her kids are not that strong and her top officers are not of her "blood relatives", but Pudding comment this chapter suggest they all have high ranks in the crew.I will go with ALL of them holding their own.

Big mom and her crew seems badass. Almost reminiscent of doflamingo's when they pillaged before dressorosa takeover. And the intel. Don't know about others opinion but big mom gives off a chill. But advantage Strawhat. With pudding withing their grasp. Jimbei betrayal(soon to be) and what ever fate germa and ceasear will have. Even if luffy don't beat her she will be significantly weakened and give luffy and chopper enough time to get hungry and i fear for those islands. Wonder what the chancellors will be like since pudding is not one apparently can we rule out the other daughters?

@Rob, if the world government, blackbeard and luffy fractions fought during the final battle any idea what each respectively would be fighting over? There are to many pages in the threads to read in a short period of time, but i am curious, Don't know if you have explained those in yours or maybe MK's past opinonated "outlook" on the final villain or what not.
Do you foresee, this is if it actually happens, the battle to play out similar to marinford cause to me i have a hard time picturing blackbeard trying to overthrow the world government; which leaves our protagonist and his reaction then, would he not concentrate on blackbeard as he since the defeat of ace always seem pretty heated when blackbeard in person or even just his words( Dressorosa) makes an appearance in his presence and what would stop the government side from withdrawing and then eliminate (Try)the last weakened pirate fraction left standing? or will blackbeard be the one to do what burgess attempted on derssorosa while luffy and the government fights? will eigher of the two rivals as i see black beard and luffy, ever really hold a candle to the full force of the government?i always thought luffy and blackbeard( and maybe though unlikely Kidd) will unite the pirate world under their selves respectfully, but eve then the world government seems so much stronger, hell the marines plus pacifista would likely stale mate eigher blackbeard or luffy if they unified the pirates so what would result when we add in cpo and the armies of the countries that would remain loyal to the current world power and unknowns like kong and any cards up their sleeves?
ps the location should have great influence on any possible battle in this fashion as well imo atleast, so do you all think its raftel a marine base, maybe blackbeards base, marijoa?

RE: Chapter 825: The WE Times' Comic Strip
My point is that Oda created the News Coo back in East Blue. It is well established that the world government controls this newspaper and that everyone around the world reads it.
Sora's adventure could have been published in the News Coo.
Kids are more likely to read the News Coo than a newdpaper about economics. I don't get why he came up with the We Times.we times: world( as In world government), economics times.
The sora and germa(german) 66 could be a reference to WWII comics with american propaganda of superman fighting the nazi(Germans).As noted by Artur on an alternate forums.

RE: Chapter 824: Little Pirate Games
I fear for sabo and dragon. Hope Blackbeard did not capture either. Cause those devil fruit would be his nakama snack. Epic epic Kaido.
