I just realized Mihawk is a legend comparable to the PirateKing, Right Hand of PK, and Dragon himself

and 1000 is Luffy the next PK

Mihawk > Big Mom, Koidu, Lakainu, Lizaru

Then if they knew it’s a pity. Editors did cry at 986... :lusalty::kriwhat::gonope:
turned out to be Momo stuff
I think it was the scabbards cutting down the clown

The newest editor is much more vocal and it is pretty annoying.
I think they felt threatened by OP losing the top space and wanted to create artificial hype.
It backfires since people believe in that hype instead of simply following the flow of the story.

Its been established long ago that interviews by editors and also by oda should be disregarded in many circumstances

ch 986 is quite good, the determination of the samurai is great, with the current spoilers for me 986> 1000
 
How many of still believe in act 3 ending in alliance defeat?
Don't think the alliance loses, but I think the 5 v 2 that's about to happen will result in the 5 losing against the 2 yonkou, and that drake, marco, and hawkins will replace zoro and killer in the fight.

Honestly im kind of exciting to see zoro fight someone strong for once
It's just unfortunate that Drake can't be there to carry him anymore.

Turns out the chapter is only about the shitty character who only happens to be MC, blabbering his old rubbish once again :/
 
Failed marketing. There is no internal necessity for chapter 1000 to be special, since it would underline that you artificially work around that so something specific is part of it, instead of having the story flow naturally.

But even worse, WSJ made a huge deal out of it, Oda still worked around it and in the end its a prety common thing that happens in every arc.

By itself there is nothing wrong with the chapter, everything else external though...
Yeah this is definitely a Jump issue and not an Oda one.

All he did honestly was celebrate 1000 logs as they call it and really nothing more. Jump decided to do a whole countdown, promote it on their covers, had tons of advertisements about it, etc.

Tbh, the chapter seems great to me as if its read as another chapter. Luffy finally seems to have gotten one clean blow on a Yonko (maybe, we gotta see how Kaido is next chapter). It also initiates battles truly starting
 
In Oda's Festa Jump statement he hyped up Volume 100 which would come next year and would be from Chapter 1003 to 1012



Any expectations or thoughts ?

I feel like it might be mostly outside of Wano as I feel like Act 3 is ending at 1003 (Act1 : 15 > Act2 : 30 > Act3: 45) and it will have the Shanks stuff in it


or maybe it's a Rocks flashback
this maybe why there are no rox flashback yet?
volume 99 end at chapter 1002

kinda strange to see that the volume doesnt end at 1000 knowing oda and his borderline autistic detail about chapter number

His "old rubbish" isn't the importent part of the chapter. Its this mystery goal Luffy has and Roger has. Which only seems like it can be achieved by becoming PK.

Its definitely not ending on 1002, not sure what that user is saying. Thats only 8 chapters from 995, which is where 99 is starting. Volumes are 10-11 chapters long, always. There are very few exceptions and most of them are earlier on in the series.

Well blame Kaido...he "specifically" asked Luffy to say it again.....:kayneshrug:
besides, it has been very long since we heard that phrase isn't it ....I haven't heard since chapter 923. :myman:
 

Reborn

Throughout Heaven & Earth,I alone am d Honored One
Tbh, it's not oda's fault if 1000 doesn't live upto the expectation.

Many of us already knew this is entirely possible because there was no official statement.


More so, 1001 could be better than this.



But, this is huge milestone so I don't know why oda doesn't feel like giving more impact in the chapter. There are many ways to make luffy saying "I will be PK" more impactful
