    Chapter Discussion Explain me this manga panel

    The thing about the WG erasing people/places from history is that everyone eventually just stop talking about them. It's kinda similar with the real world: can you name every president/prime minister/king your country ever had? Or all of the most relevant individuals in the world from 40 years...

    Questions & Mysteries Does Blackbeard take Buggy seriously?

    Certainly. For now, BB doesn't know that Buggy is just the figurehead of Cross Guild, so he has to respect him, as CG is a big threat even in the eyes of the WG. There has been instances of weak leaders of powerful organizations in the past (e.g.: Spandine/Spandam to the CP9/CP0, Orochi to Wano...

    Future Events Will we ever see a Marco flashback?

    We saw it already, it's called Oden's flashback. If we ever see Marco's past again, it'll be in someone else's flashback too. For example, a very small Marco (about 5 years old) could appear at the end of the Rocks' flashback we're seeing right now (he was possibly WB's first recruit, so he...

    Character Discussion Are The Gorosei 100% Loyal?

    They kinda need to be very loyal, since Imu seemingly can just off them in a snap, but it's clear since Egghead that they might have their own agendas. Saturn, for example, decided on his own to preserve Emeth to study its technology after it attacked Mary Geoise 200 years ago (there was already...

    General & Others Some one please explain why Ryuma is so highly regarded?

    It seems that he single-handedly protected Wano from pirates and (apparently) even celestial dragons who desired it. (Not sure if this translation is correct though, I remember that I initially saw a version with just "nobles" on it. In any case, in terms of hype he's at least bigger than Oden.)...

    Break Week How did you feel about Rob lucci and the other Former CP9 members going back to the World Government?

    People who watch only the anime also don't read the cover stories. We can make some sense out of it if we take into consideration that Spandine was on the verge of retirement, putting Spandam's position at risk (that's if Lucci himself didn't "make he fall ill"). That's Lucci's revenge, I...

    Break Week How did you feel about Rob lucci and the other Former CP9 members going back to the World Government?

    It was explained on SBS Vol. 109: D: Hello Oda! I am writing to you from France because I would like to know how the members of CP9 joined CP0. Good luck! P.N. CATELA Valentin O: Yes, the Japanese is a bit weird because of the translation lol. I've included it as-is. Let's go back to when CP9...

    Break Week How did you feel about Rob lucci and the other Former CP9 members going back to the World Government?

    I liked it, the CP-9 were amazing villains and powerful assets to the WG. Rob Lucci was lauded by the Buster Call Vice Admirals as a prodigy, it didn't made sense to just dump him (especially when Spandam was the one blaming him for everything). He was akin to a top Supernova. Maybe the thing...

    General & Others Rate Every One Piece Arc Post Timeskip so far

    Return to Sabaody: 8.0/10.0. Solid introduction arc for the "second half" (actually not really "half", but it can be considered it in a storytelling sense) of the series, it shows that the strawhats are more than ready for New World (not really to face the Yonko, but at least to not die or face...

    Powers & Abilities Where could the first logia awakening be shown?

    I think it was already shown back in Arabasta: Smoker would be a tough one. His powers are just smoke, so I doubt that he would be able to create a sky island (maybe Caesar would be the one capable to do it), but if he could change the surroundings into smoke, he could make people fall...

    General & Others Are Marineford , Enies Lobby, and Sabaody One Pieces 3 Best Arcs?

    Among the long arcs, my personal favorites are Enies Lobby, Water 7 and Skypiea. (Or Water 7, Skypiea and Arabasta if you consider the whole Water 7 saga a single arc.) The 2002-2007 period was the pinnacle of One Piece IMO. Marineford is a bit overrated IMO, it might not even be the best arc of...

    General & Others Would One Piece Be Better if it was a Seinen Manga?

    Even then, 43% of the readers were young adults (19-29). And things possibly changed now with One Piece on Netflix, the live action series, etc. Here you can see recent data about the % of each age range in terms of traffic on the One Piece's japanese website...

    General & Others Would One Piece Be Better if it was a Seinen Manga?

    You're mistaken about the One Piece's demographics. Most people who read it/watch it are still young (more than 50% is 5-29 years old, if I'm not mistaken). Yes, due to it being a (extremely) long running series, a lot of the audience is old now, but there are still a lot of kids/teens who start...

    Controversial Aspiring to be the pirate king is not impressive for a top tier

    Although it isn't the hardest dream of all, it's one of the hardest without a doubt. You need to be able to get the Road Poneglyphs from two Yonko (Kaido and Big Mom), plus get two other "lost" Road Poneglyphs (Zou's and Hinokizu's). You'd need to be at least emperor level in terms of strength...

    Character Discussion Why did Jinbe not attend the Warlord meeting during Jaya?

    It was probably due to some bs reason. I mean, he didn't join the strawhats right during FI arc to basically save a sea kitten and give a sermon to Wadatsumi. Crocodile's downfall didn't exactly affect him or FI too, so he probably considered it a worthless reunion. Could've even missed it to...
