Day 1: My two favorites are Luffy and Robin
Day 2: Arlong
Day 3: Luffy one-shotting Bellamy. It was obvious that Luffy was stronger than Bellamy but I at least expected him to put up somewhat of a fight. reading that scene for the first time literally made me yell out oh shit.

I liked episode 8 a lot. I found your different theories to be really interesting.

Setting: Water 7
Flashback: Robin's on Enies Lobby
Action: Marineford
Adventure: Skypiea
Characters: Sabaody
Humor: Buggy at Marineford and whenever zoro gets lost (alabasta, and enies lobby in particular)
Villian: Crocodile
Drama: Water 7 before the strawhats found out that Robin was planning to sacrificing herself

Very interesting chapter, Sinbad is amassing more and more territory and it looks like a war with Kou will happen in the future. I guess Sinbad can also literally hypnotize Kougyoku which will probably come in handy for him later. I honestly have no idea what Hakuryuu is up to but if I had to make a prediction I think that he is being manipulated into cursing his fate/increasing his hatred by Gyokuen so that he will become a strong "core" for Al-Tharmen

you know you're obsessed with one piece if you try to use conqueror's haki on people that annoy you

For me in no particular order

• Shanks ending the war
• Luffy using conqueror's haki on 50,000 fishmen
• when luffy first meets arlong and punches him into a wall because he made his navigator cry

I got the feeling that mogamett's warning about not submitting yourselves to another person because they are powerful/charismatic could also be referring to Sinbad and his role in the future. There have been many examples foreshadowing the possibility of Sinbad becoming an antagonist later in the story and I think this is another one.

Top 5

1. Sabaody
2. Skypiea
3. Water7/ EL
4. Alabasta
5. Arlong Park

My favorite is Garp. I really fell in love with his character during Marineford when you could see him struggling with whether or not he should place family over duty. Also, the fact that he took in his arch enemy's kid shows that unlike most of the marines he follows his own moral code which is a nice contrast to followers of absolute justice who blindly obey the government.

I always believed that Uranus has the ability to control weather and was found by Roger. If you remember the Strong World prologue chapter, Shiki mentions that Roger knows the whereabouts of a weapon that can destroy the world. The two fought and Roger and managed to induce a draw because the harsh weather allowed him the opportunity to escape. The storm that saved Roger was the result of him using Uranus.

Eventually, I believe Uranus was then found by Dragon after Roger's death or given to him by Roger personally which would explain how he was able to create storms in Loguetown and in Goa. Also, as others have mentioned, him being in possession of one of the ancient weapons would obviously justify his position as the world's most wanted man.
