Looking at the official... - I still can't read Capone's bounty :chirstsad: - Divine Depature, that sounds okay. - Lodestar Island, huh? The lodestar is a guiding star used by navigators, I guess it it leads you onto the next phase of the journey into chasing poneglyphs. No one before Roger ever...

Here is a better translation by Artur until Sandman comes out: I don't see any language about "sacrifices", just some stuff about the meaning behind Luffy and the Strawhat's fights becoming clear. Also, no suggestion Wano will end in 2020 or else Oda would hype something like Luffy vs Kaido...

This is Artur (with EtenBoby's help) translation: This one says Wano is "reaching its core". I think it's pretty clear at this point that Oda doesn't plan on finishing Wano next year. The main draw of his comments is Sabo, Vivi, and Hancock, characters that appeared only in the Act transition...

A complete translation by Neni: So maybe Wano will reach a climax? But the arc can't end in tragedy, WCI ended like that because Big Mom couldn't be defeated yet. Maybe it only concerns the fate of those side characters. Very interesting to see what Oda wants to do with Wano this year.

Thanks EtenBoby. Yup. That's Act 3, looking like WCI's Tea Party. Nothing close to hinting at Wano's climax much less its resolution in the next year. I don't think this is related to Wano at all. What's going on in the background in between Acts with these characters is going to lead up to...

Not as cryptic as last year. I'm not even sure if Wano will end in 2020. The "final stages" of the series is a bit broad to refer to OP entering the final arc, he might just be talking about hinting at Laugh Tale again. Good to hear about Sabo, Vivi and the Warlords. They might get tied up in...

You gotta keep in mind pirates in real life rarely walked the plank, it's more of element of fiction. I guess that's one more way Oda could kill fodder. I remember Luffy being tied up and thrown into the sea in one of the Romance Dawns. The end of WCI was pretty much a sea battle: - Carrot...

Very much loved this one even more than last week. Not as many big hit animators, but I can't complain when there was more action and less running around and the fight reaches its climax. Shida's Bagua raised the whole thing to another level. So good how they finished up the flurry of Gear 3...

Right now it's 2 AM Japan time. The panel will end today at 11 AM Japan time, so a little after that when its finally translated.

Big Mom from the most recent arc: There is no way this phrase is unique to Roger and Luffy. Furthermore, we've seen Luffy tell everyone from Mihawk to dragon Kaido that he's going to be King of the Pirates. They give all sorts of reactions to Luffy. Why was Luffy cut off back then? Why is...

This chapter gave us an easily overlooked blurb of missing dialogue from Roger. It causes Whitebeard to laugh and call him a kid, while Oden is left with his mouth open. It's a reference to this scene. A missing proclamation from Luffy caused the same kind of shock and confusion. I imagine...

What a hell of a chapter. Amazing end to the year, amazing end to the decade. Shame about the loss of Jamini's and Mangastream's translations and having to make due with lower quality translations on Fridays. Viz/Mangaplus being free is the best thing ever and all that, but I loved comparing...

Outright giving swords their own abilities crosses too much into Devil Fruit territory, I definitely wouldn't want things ever taken that far. We have seen high technology from Vegapunk, Germa, Lindbergh, etc. to mimic such effects so I don't see why a sword couldn't electrify or set itself on...

The thing with Zephyr is that he served as Admiral for a very short period of time. He became Admiral at age 38, then 3 years later he retired after his family was killed by pirates. He's served as mere Marine instructor for decades since. He may as well effectively not exist on the timeline...

Oooohhh, that was a great. As a whole, the best animated episode since the beginning of Wano and it comes as a pleasant surprise. I don't mind if any chapter or any fight gets drawn out as long as it looks like that. Kaido shows consistent animated movement the entire episode despite how hard...

Imagine a Mane Mane user touching Kaido and Big Mom. You get their near indestructible bodies and the raw strength to swing around Queen. It wouldn't even be hard to do. You pose as their goons and bring Kaido and Big Mom their food and drink, making sure you touch some skin. You become...

Agreed. There is still an open possibility that she works for Cipher Pol. Ever since before Wano began, there has been a significant amount of focus on the fact that the World Government does not control Wano. CP0 agents visited Orochi personally. They protected Doflamingo and arrived in...

Nice. You nailed it on the head, this slipped right past me. Those eyebrows and lips remarkably look like Shiki's. The old lady told Orochi to build up gold and manufacture weapons in the hopes that he can be backed up by someone powerful. That's a direct tie-in to Kaido and gives him every...

Rakyo and Fossa switching from Commanders 1, 3, 4 or 5 to 7th and 15th currently doesn't make much sense. All divisions are equal according to Oda. You could argue division work became specialized (medical division, scouting division, carpenter division, etc) and they consequently switched to...
