who needs enemies when you got friends like Harald, wtf

I thought they were cooking with the VAs until I heard Number 5's :saitahu:

Does KND even have a Japanese dub? Oda was like in his 30s when that was airing; that'd be a pretty obscure thing for an adult Japanese person to watch.

MF Akainu wasn't a villain thoever He was right.

I rule this out as a possibility because Oda had that line in the Shogun Momo glaze chapter about him being revered as the future best shogun of Wano ever. Kinda future proofed his life.

None of this is demonstrated, hence why effectively his existence, and the CIC position in general in OP, is purposeless. It's phantom responsibility. Sound of a tree falling in the woods. Oda manifests all the important Marine material through the Fleet Admiral position. Hell, even the...

True, just wish Oda showed him actually commanding any of that. Instead the only time we saw him active in his role as CiC was when Sengoku went up to collect his pension checks.

I don't even really understand the point of the Commander in Chief role here when ostensibly Oda only gives a shit about the Fleet Admiral as the leader of the Marines. Usually a CiC is the president/premier/dictator of a country, but Kong doesn't fit that role neither electorally nor...

1. I assume, on no evidence except for the voices that talk to me in my dreams, that Smoker and Tashigi are in SWORD. I will believe this until proven otherwise. 2. non-sequitur: wtf was Smoker hauling here

The canon answer is "they're pirates so we don't know if they'll honor their words har har har" Realistically Oda just wanted to save his reveal as the last of the seven warlords.

She's unreliable in that she seemingly has no personal witness to it nor anything conclusive to provide proof that she died, simply her word. And her word has already been contradicted by Shakky being out and about unfettered. She only referenced herself having survived it, she simply may not be...

"Zatoichi" is also a double entendre. Historical fun fact: a contingency of blind people in Japan use to have their own traveling congregation, they often served as wandering masseur as those were usually one of the few jobs they could take on given their disabilities and the general distrust...

Shakky when she rejected him and broke his heart :doffycry:

Yeah I think me and @SkySanji just disagree to what level it takes to qualify to be an Admiral both in power and prestige.

My point is there's a limit to how many spots you can cycle before you run out of powerhouses that even exist. I disagree fundamentally that there's Admiral-quality fighters out independently in abundance. There's a limit to how many powerhouses with potentially world-affecting power can exist...
