We need flashback to end first! While Harald's WG lapdogging is still questionable, the sad backstory for Loki is actually shaping to be one of the saddest, he got rejected by mom1, his idol beat him up and died, partially because of his dad, his mom2 was poisoned and he didn't even get to say goodbye, he had to kill his father to save his country from Imu, and got imprisoned due to misunderstanding.... Yeah, a whole lot to unpack here.
Still....

I still think Loki has a Shapeshifting Devil Fruit that will let him shrink.

Two reasons I've come up with recently:

1. It makes Lola x Loki make A LOT MORE SENSE if the dude can shrink himself.
2. Jarul has stated that both Harald and Loki were trying to be Nika in their own ways. Loki introduced himself as the Sun God, after all, and is clearly referenced on some level in the Harley Mural. Nika/Luffy can use Gear 5 to grow into the size of a Giant; Loki being a Giant who shrinks would be a nice parallel.

I need Loki to be able to shapeshift/shrink so I can ship him with Nami, come on, Oda.

If Loki DOES end up with Teach, though, Teach can just... build him a giant ship as a Titanic Captain.

I think Loki will join up with the coming Teach/Cross Guild Alliance first, then become a Straw Hat later on. I think Kidd will join this Alliance, too: Loki pairing with Xebec's son makes a lot of sense, and Cross Guild would allow Loki to keep his agency as an independent pirate, since it's a business alliance, with Croc/Mihawk having equal roles despite their power level difference.

Kinda wanna see Loki punt Sengoku they way I always wanted Charlie Brown to kick that damn football

Any Smoker for nakama fans left?

I'm in "no one joins" club, but I wouldn't mind Smoker joining! Cool logia DF, mid-tier fighter after M3, parallel to Kuzan, might bring some interesting knowledge, fits personality-wise and already has a good chemistry with the crew. The only question I have is where Tashigi goes then.

I think the funniest thing about this thread is the title has "Grand Fleet" in it and like no one here gives the slightest shit about anyone joining the Grand Fleet.

With that being said, I really hope Vivi rejoins the crew, soon.

I can 1000% seeing Oda bring Vivi back in the manga around the same time she appears in the Live Action to drum up hype.

 

[vikas]

yeah, but in giant years loki supposed to be in his late teens around 19 or so.


since they live longer.

In that case, I am pretty sure those big fishes also live differently than human years

I wouldn't mind having Vivi back! The team needs more ladies. Also, there's good potential for exploring Vivi-Robin relationship.

I think Vivi is one of the elements holding Robin's Will back when it comes to her Haki; Robin must feel horrible about what she did to Alabasta, especially after working with the Revs for 2 years, and seeing first hand what a revolution looks like from the other side.

Vivi forgiving Robin should do a lot for her character.

Really want Vivi to get Kuma's Fruit, but after he "survived" Egghead, I really don't want to see Kuma die.

Between Imu and Sommers, and Garling possibly showing up, I'm ready for it, though.

I wonder if Vivi and Kuma ever met in Marijoa, when he was a Shichibukai/before he lost his mind.

harald wouldn't force his son into that arrange marriage crap.

mato offering loki a drink. she already kind like ida. And ida knowing smile at the two.

I feel to ask this:

If Yamato is just going to be some guard manager for Momo and not sail with Luffy, then why didn't Oda make this clear in the SBS, so as to not give anyone's hopes up

 

[moreha9685]

Back to the Lamato cope?

 

[Electricmastro]

Back to the Lamato cope?

You mean how people "coped" Jinbe would come back, or how people are "coping" Vivi will come back?

I mean, for all we know, Vivi will get killed before ever reuniting with Luffy again, just like her dad, and will thus NEVER sail with the Straw Hats again, right?

Not Vivi

Yamato is guaranteed to leave Wano at some point, her dream of 20+ years must come true.

 

[AverageBuggyEnjoyer]

Almost 2026 and folks are still posting about Yamato joining. Just let it go Oda already broke our heart once don't fall for it again

At this point I wish Oda would focus on existing SH more rather than adding new ones. What did Brook and Usopp do in Wano? I genuinely struggle to remember, I think Brook did a taxi service for Robin after her fight, and I recall Usopp running away from Ulti I guess? And don't even get me started with Egghead where Robin got injures out of nowhere with no explanation just to relive her childhood traumas.

 

[Loki D. Terror]

Wamato reigns supreme even if she doesn't joins
