    One Piece Episode 928 - The Flower Falls! The Final Moment of the Most Beautiful Woman in Wano Country

    I've got to say I'm not too happy considering this episode marked the climatic action of the Strawhats meeting Orochi. Last week was mere build up, but here the art and animation quality should have been better. Besides Kyoshiro's beautiful cut, the rest was rather forgettable. Why was Orochi...

    General & Others Next Strawhat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

    Definitely the strongest Carrot for nakama hint ever. Good day for her fans. Personally, I saw it as Oda spoiling the first all-Strawhat panel by throwing Carrot into the mix. He must be saving the moment for an epic double page spread during the war. Here you can't even see Chopper's body or...

    Chapter Discussion One Piece - Chapter 977 : "The Party Won't Start Now"

    Funny how Queen is waiting for his soup while funky dancing with his people. You can even see the musical note next to him.

    Break Week Kaido Jr

    Strength -- Nothing in between. He's either YC level minimum or to be written off like Momo. Design -- Probably just a subjective Oda design. I don't think he will be purposely ugly like Weevil since that cuts into his role. Character -- Building a Katakuri or an Oden would require loads of...

    Questions & Mysteries How is Killer back to normal?

    Killer was suffering because he was separated from his crew. He was just a madman killing in hopes that one day he would reunite with them. I don't necessarily think his problems came from the SMILE itself. The SMILE doesn't allow him to express negative emotions, but that doesn't mean it...

    Chapter Discussion One Piece - Chapter 977 : "The Party Won't Start Now"

    Very nice segue chapter. Capone's cover story just about reaching its conclusion as Wano segues to Kaido and Big Mom's side of things. This is why I'm glad Jinbe is back, even if premature. All these little wholesome crew moments now include the big fish. Wonderful to see Franky be enthuastic...

    One Piece Episode 927 - Pandemonium! The Monster Snake, Shogun Orochi

    Slow build up, some tension in the middle, then climatic action at the end. Very natural feeling flow. Orochi with the speedblitz that almost one-shot Toko! :zosleepy: I'm impressed with how deep and manly Komurasaki's voice became. Looked like that was her impression of a brave Samurai who...

    News Volume 96 coming on April 2020

    Not easy trying to break this one down. - 28 total members, 26 pirates and 2 apprentices. Bullet/Oden/Inu/Neko not included. - 1 non-human (Sunbell). - 0 women, but Spencer was confused for one in the flashback. - 11 Sword/Knife users (Roger, Rayleigh, Spencer, Issac, Momora, Jackson, Gallant...

    Chapter Discussion One Piece - Chapter 976 : "Allow Me To Introduce Myself"

    Lovely little color spread. Looks like it's one of those where half the Strawhats appear in one, the other half are in the following spread to prevent crowding I suppose. Hoping Boss Jinbe finally joins the Strawhats in the next one. Kanjuro just keeps getting scarier and scarier. Kamawatsu...

    Powers & Abilities DFs the BB Pirates should be realistically hunting?

    Blackbeard sailed the New World for two decades with Whitebeard, was part of the Shichibukai, participated in Marineford, then we've seen bits and pieces of his own journey where he takes out people like Jewelry Bonney. They know a lot of people with amazing Devil Fruits. Maybe they don't know...

    Current Events Kozuki Oden – The Man Who Stopped The Flow of Time (A Character Analysis + Final Arc Buildup)

    Oden really does seem to epitomize Wano in many ways. Oden is a badass top tier Samurai. The outside world regards Wano as a powerful and dangerous country so much that even Akainu is wary of sending in men citing the Samurai. Oden never sought his own followers or even his wife, they...

    General & Others Details you may have missed in One Piece designs

    Diamante is one of my favorite designs in the series. In the Spanish-themed Dressrosa, he's the matador of the Colosseum who performs as the champion of the crowd. Destined rival to Kyros. He's dressed in crimson red, like the red cloth a matador uses to attract the bull's attention. Fights...

    Break Week Apoo's role and Power

    The most surprising thing was how good his acting was. He entered Kid's base by taking out his snipers, a reasonable concern for anyone but Apoo who should have been trying to set up an alliance. He also kept the bad blood between from Sabaody. Kid is on a short fuse, that could have easily...

    Powers & Abilities DFs the BB Pirates should be realistically hunting?

    Think of all the powerful and useful Devil Fruits as well as their users. Which are abilities that the Blackbeard pirates should realistically know about and be capable of hunting down? Here's a set of criteria: 1) The BB Pirates have to know this person exists and what power they posses. For...

    Speculations Why did mihawk join the shichibukai?

    Well the thing is that we don't actually know that. The Vivre Cards say Mihawk has sailed far and wide in search of worthy challengers until he couldn't find any one else. But in the actual manga? Mihawk has most likely not challenged a single Admiral or any Yonko. He challenged Shanks before...

    Future Events When will the grand fleet first be used?

    I expect the events from Punk Hazard all the way to Whole Cake Island are all culminating in Wano. Just like Marineford brought all the threads of the pre-time skip saga since Whitebeard was introduced together. The major exception being Fishman Island, which took place before the Yonko saga and...

    One Piece Episode 926 - A State of Chaos - Fearsome Snake Shogun Orochi

    Robin going to work and getting the leaks from Orochi himself. Love to see her getting involved. Those were some nice flips while wearing the geisha outfit too. More action Robin please! And Robin gets the rope. Well, not really, it wasn't that brutal here. She just got sliced up by some...

    One Piece Episode 925 - Dashing! The Righteous O-Soba Mask!

    That was so sick. A good 80%+ of the episode was on Sanji vs Page One and it looked so focused and clean. Stealth Black is amazing to see come to life. Sanji in black looks way better than his brothers. I love the cape, I love the belt, hair looked good, I'm not a fan of the Germa footwear and...

    Chapter Discussion One Piece - Chapter 975 : "Kinemon's Plan"

    Wonderful to see everyone coming together. The Strawhats all one ship again. The alliance is looking so good. I'll miss Brook's Samurai armor and katana, but Franky, Nami, Usopp, Sanji with the gloves, and Luffy with the coat look incredible. On Kid's crew, Killer is hiding for now but it...

    General & Others Where would you spend your vacations in One Piece world ?

    Fishman Island and Skypeia are stunning otherworldly environments, but probably impossible for regular folk to access. Tottoland, Thriller Bark and the Boin Archipelago are also personal preferences, but obviously you can't simply stroll into such dangerous territory owned by pirates. Sabaody...
