I really enjoyed the back-and-forth banter between Law and Kid this week as neither wanted to take orders from the other, despite the effectiveness of their teamwork. Most impressive was the one-two punch which seemingly brings an end to this battle, at least for the time being. Now, I don’t need to tell you how […] More
As we know Luffy vs Kaido is all about Haki, Luffy unlocking Advanced forms of Haki to even out the playing field against Kaido. On the other hand we have Law and Kid showing off their Devil Fruit Awakening and using that to even the playing field. What Oda is doing thematically is showing off […] More
While I initially was of the opinion that the Yonko shouldn’t fall here, my perspective was a bit clouded. While I still regard the Yonko as titanic, especially Kaido and Big Mom, what the parties on Wano (Straw Hats, pirate allies, samurai and minks) have pulled off is incredibly impressive. from set up… …to glimpses […] More
The “Will of D.” is a mystery surrounding some people who have the initial “D.” in their names. Let’s see the possible meanings of D.: 1 – Dawn It’s the most obvious one, a lot of people already thought about it since the first chapter of One Piece is called Romance dawn, and a lot […] More
If you have read Chapter 1017, you’ll know this is about the seemingly now important or special Gomu Gomu no Mi devil fruit. I’d like to preface this by saying I really hope the Gomu Gomu no Mi devil fruit stays ordinary. This “theory” is then more of a justification in my head about what Oda-sensei could […] More
This is just a theory that I’ve been thinking about for quite some time. I believe the Rocks Pirates got created from having a big Davy Back Fight. In Chapter 306, Robin explains to us that the Davy Back Fight is a Pirate Game that originated a long time ago on Pirate Island, a Pirate […] More
Let’s start with the Monster Trio. We had an entire arc primarily focused upon Sanji, and a good portion of it was dominated by his interactions and relationship with Pudding. Starting out as necessity, only for him to know her better and vice versa and whatnot. They (un)officially married, and parted on terms which seemed […] More
I think Shank’s goal is to maintain balance in the world either indefinitely or until Roger’s successor challenges the world to a fight. I’ve been pondering this for awhile. On the final island, Laugh Tale, the Roger Pirates found the treasure left behind 800 years ago by Joy Boy and learned the truth behind the Void Century, Ancient Weapons, […] More
I thought this before, but after Oda almost shoehorns that Whitebeard flashback into the story in Chapter 999, it’s even more possible than ever. Oda also made Old Whitebeard to pass the torch to Luffy even in the pre-timeskip battle, right after Luffy used Conqueror’s Haki. Not long ago, Ace tried to persuade Whitebeard to […] More
First off- I’m not making any claims as to where he stands. Anything that I might say is just going to be opinion/innuendo. Secondly, I’m talking about his power as an individual- particularly in the context of a dual. The reason I’ve been wondering about this is because many people really seem to rely on […] More
Oda likes to use myths, legends and fables, e.g. “Fable” backwards = Elbaf. In chinese mythology, there are said to be 4 seas: North, South, East and West. Those 4 seas are represented by four colors: Yellow, Blue, White and Red. They have also been represented by different animals over the time including a Monkey, […] More
The underestimation/downplay of old sick Whitebeard is seriously getting annoying. Yes, he was sick and old, but he still held the title of World’s Strongest Man, and according to Sengoku, he had the power to destroy the world. The “Vivre Card Vol.4” confirmed that Whitebeard attained the title of World’s Strongest Man well before the Great Age […] More
