The case for 5 Acts is too strong. The Jump Festa message was about Sabo, Vivi, Hancock, intermission content. Even if you think Wano ends this year, there is enough time to go over post-Reverie drama, all achievable in 2020 with Oda's breaks, why would Oda jump into that stuff right away? Wano...

What a banger of a chapter to return to the present with. The art is simply gorgeous with all the ships, the stormy atmosphere, and all those chaotic Wano waves. Perfect weather to pull a traitor move lol. It looks we finally get an answer to Kaido's motivation for hunting down the time jumping...

A 1v1 duel between Kin'emon and Kanjuro would be pretty intense. They're the two Scabbards we've known by far the longest, both of them jumped through time, they're the only two that use DFs (unless Shinobu is a Scabbard now), and it's a battle over Momo with Kin essentially acting as his fake...

I like how the Kurozomi family members all posses Devil Fruits that specialize in trickery. Higurashi - Tricks you with her appearance using the Clone Clone. Semimaru - Invisible barriers with hax in the sense that they've never been broken or even cracked. Kanjuro - All sorts of fake creations...

So happy to hear nothing is going wrong with Oda's health! This chapter felt very cinematic the way it cut out scenes we've already experienced but threw in the ones missing. It serves to tie a bow of sorts over all the holes between the past the present. I guess Oda could have just flashed back...

I always though the Energy Steroid was an amusing twist on the Hero Water from Alabasta. These four elite warriors drink a potion of last resort for the sake of their country. In exchange for their lives, they gain superhuman strength for a few minutes (don't ask me how they survived the trek...

This is tricky, because you have to consider what abilities are good for espionage that would help "Ace" reach the level of a Calamity and not stop at mere Tobi Roppo/Headliner. Keep in mind Kaido collects Zoan users, Paramecia belong to Orochi's Samurai camp or Worst Gen members like Hawkins...

In terms of strength: Top: Ashura, Inuarashi, Nekomamushi, (Denjiro if alive), Izo. They trained for 20 years, maybe Izo is below the others. Middle: Kawamatsu. He spend half the time in prison. Bottom: Kin'emon, Kanjuro, Raizo, Kiku. They time jumped. Kinemon as the de facto leader is probably...

Kin'emon has been very well characterized as the centerpiece of the Scabbards. He and Momo and have tagged along with the Strawhats longer than even Vivi, bestowing the unofficial Strawhat label on them wouldn't be that shocking. I adore the concept of his design. Foxfire Kinemon. The...

She will be missed. However, Orochi is the true MPV for me. Orochi got Oden to accept the 5 year deal. Without that deal, none of this works. The Beast Pirates are defeated by Wano's combined military forces, the Kurozumi high tail out of there before they get another dose of Wano citizen justice.

Some surreal pacing here. The first half is slow to a crawl, and then Page One steps in and like six important scenes happen one right after another. In my opinion, they eat away at each other. Kid fought a Big Mom Commander and lost his arm to the Red-Hair pirates, but between Brook finding a...

This is not a prophecy. This is an educated guess. Oden and Toki are not on the level of Sharly or the Sea Kings's knowledge of Poseidon. Oden knows what One Piece, that One Piece will flip the world on its head. And yet he can't even be sure if this will lead to a terrible war, a peaceful...

What a magnificent chapter. You could feel the ambiance the entire time that Oden was bowing out of the story. The "legendary hour" wasn't just Oden boiling but all of Wano waking up from their slumber. When you have scenes of Oden killing himself to save a few lives on top of everything he's...

I'm sure the flashback is done, but it doesn't look like we're finding out why Neko and Inu started hating each other to the point of death. The 9 ran after Oden ordered them to. Ashura and Denjiro most likely stayed behind and distracted Dragon Kaido. The journey to Kuri is long one so after...

Orochi's voice was easily the highlight of the episode. I love how he switches from low to high pitch depending on what he wants to emphasize. Almost like he's a maniac with a split-personality. Because of his appearance, he doesn't have keep a cool or intimidating aura around him all the time...

Pretty good chapter. Oden is insane and I did not expect such a big moment from Shinobu. Orochi's backstory takes a lovely dark twist. Orochi and his clan were persecuted and wiped for the crimes of his grandfather. A similar character like Doflamingo was strung up somewhere in the North Blue...

https://scantrad.net/mangas/one-piece/971 French version is out. This should get translated to English in mere hours.

Great post. Haki functions as the great equalizer. You can be born with a weak scrawny body, a strong oversized body, a non-human body, a Devil Fruit cursed body, as long you master your haki none of these things is limiting your dreams, hindering your willpower, anyone is just as capable of...

As always, the full chapter is needed for context. Next chapter too. He might have something to say next week. Regardless, I don't resonate with your idea here. Actions always speak louder than words. Oden making a big speech about I WAS TRICKED does not have anywhere near the impact of the...

That's intense, that's definitely not the baptism the Impel Down prisoners went through. I like how even though Kaido made a deal with Oden, he gets chained to the bottom of the pot anyway. Kaido and Orochi are no fools.
