Oda is kinda wrapping this arc up in a rather unconventional way. Usually an arc reaches its climax with a notion of ambiguity; the Commanders are defeated but the main anatagonist is still looking like he is going to win, or is at least ignorant towards his eventual defeat, while there is still a sense […] More
According to Kaido, Awakening is when the mind and body are able to haness the ability. This I think, sums up awakening, because this implies that it’s a natural procedure, which means it be might possible to force, or stimulate it. In natural circumstances, the devil fruit awakens when the coditions are complete, when the […] More
What is Dragon’s secret and why is he being held back? I think the answer lies with his tattoo. It’s actually quite an easy tattoo to understand if we take the most flashiest part out of it, the lines. We actually have seen these lines on many occasions and they symbolize “containment”. We see this […] More
Let’s summarize the recent cover pages in Chocolate Town: Oven and Pudding are staring at Niji and Yonji in Chocolate Town. Oven is leaving the city with Brulee through the mirror. Oven and Brulee are arriving on Whole Cake Island, mysterious black silhouettes on sight. Not buildings, drawn just behind, not trees, drawn on both […] More
-It’s already known that Gear 4 Bounceman shares the same pose as Enel’s ultimate technique MAX 200,000,000 Volt Amaru transformation. -Now, in his Gear 5 form Luffy has white clouds floating around his neck, just like Enel when he uses his MAX 200,000,000 Volt Amaru transformation. -Luffy recently unlocked Gomu Gomu no Gigant, a technique […] More
I want to say this right from the get go: Nico Robin will never be someone like Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Chopper, Franky, or Jinbe in terms of raw, physical strength and fighting skill. But I believe that with the power of her Devil Fruit, she has the potential to be the strongest of all of them. […] More
In Dressrosa, the Revolutionary Army was investigating the weapons being sold by Doflamingo. They specifically said they wanted to find the source of these weapons. Kind of a weird detail if there is no pay off. This investigation is going to take them to Wano. The source of the weapons. And when they arrive, they […] More
Recently Luffy unlocked a new Gear 5 technique, Gomu Gomu no Gigant, where he expands himself to the size of a literal giant, as if activating Gear 3 on his entire body. I was thinking about that, and then I remembered that the World Government has done a lot of failed experiments in attempts to […] More
My speculation is that Ryokugyu does not actually have a plant based devil fruit but instead is a master of a power shown earlier in the series. Kumadori (funny pink haired guy from CP9 that Chopper fought) had an ability we have not seen since called “Life Return” he said this power, not any devil […] More
Kenbunshoku Haki was introduced as something simple to us by Rayleigh at first: However, ever since then (and even before then but it was proved later) we’ve seen one exception and irregularity after the other, which I’ll mention shortly, but we’ve treated them as special occassions. The thing is though, once those special occassions start […] More
So fun thing I’ve been working on is the theory that all the Straw Hats are actually based on monsters from various types of media. Some are quite obvious, others may be more of a stretch. Monkey D. Luffy – The Monkey King. The monkey king is the antagonist of the Buddha in Buddhism. This […] More
I have a theory regarding Mihawk being Rayleigh’s disciple. Both being very good swordsmen (one of them even the best in the world) is kind of a hint for me. And it would explain two still unknown things: 1. How the friendship between Shanks and Mihawk developed (Shanks, too, being a swordsman) maybe they were […] More
