    Speculations Shanks' supposed twin

    To get to the main point right away: I find it quite interesting that almost everyone seems to agree that the guy arriving at Elbaph is supposedly Shank's evil twin brother. But why exactly? The only thing alluding to that theory is that Oda has only shown this man's right side of the face on...

    Chapter Discussion HxH Chapter 409 - Negotiation: Part 3

    Out! https://cubari.moe/read/imgur/qMi8Oii/1/1/ Well, Morena and Borksen getting super steamy and Morena mocking Borksen's "virginity" after fully exploiting her (and let's be honest - she certainly did it for her pleasure, too, not just the Nen granting ability) was not on my bingo card tbh...

    Chapter Discussion Chapter 404: Speculation

    Out! https://tcbscans.me/chapters/7820/hunter-x-hunter-chapter-404 Things are really heating up. Salkov's inner monologue about Tserriednich is legendary: "The expectations he sets for himself, his whole attitude ... it's so far removed from what an average guy like me can comprehend. He...

    Current Events Oda completely lost the plot at the end of Egghead

    Let's get this out of the way: We all complained that the last 20 chapters were dragging like crazy and could've easily been squeezed into 5 chapters from a plot standpoint. But now sth worse happened: The current chapter makes no sense in terms of logic whatsoever and therefore bombs the...

    General & Others The WG should actually give Vegapunk a pay-raise for his speech

    As I've written in the chapter thread yesterday - why on earth is the WG still trying to stop Vegapunk's speech? I'm dead serious btw - has anyone any idea what on earth the purpose of that speech was? If anything he has actually helped the WG more than he hurt them with it. Let's look at the...

    Questions & Mysteries Mother Flame and Uranus - how it makes sense

    We all saw how Ivankov, Dragon and Sabo were in theory mode this chapter and tried to make sense of that enormous shadow over Lulusia and the nuking that followed. We also saw Imu calling the Gorosei telling them to "try out Vegapunk's invention - mother flame". A lot of fans immediately...

    General & Others New Oda interview: "I want to end OP in 3 years!"

    In his latest interview Oda came up with a few interesting lines. Aside from the fact the he blatantly admitted that he - and I quote - "made Chopper a mascot character", Oda also once again came up with a timeline on the ending of OP. He said "I know I've been wrong with my estimations in the...

    General & Others The myth of One Piece being a "masterpiece"/"peak fiction"

    So in short: Where does this nonsense even come from? On Twitter, reddit & Co. it seems like you are a heretic, if you even dare suggest that OP is not the epitome of manga history. One Piece is a very fun read and certainly has its strengths (mainly worldbuilding), but it is nowhere near a...

    Character Discussion Yamato officially (!) confirmed to be a girl (and not a trans-person)

    So, I think everything you need to know is in the title. Oda's official OP staff just released several nice promo videos including one where all females around the globe are encouraged by the strong female characters we have in the OP world: Nami, Robin, Boa, Perona, Hiyori etc. ....... and...

    General & Others OP Manga vs Anime Presentation - Anime Staff: "We always make sure we have Oda's approval when animating (filler) fights!"

    In a recent interview (credit to Soulstorm on Twitter): Anime Staff: “When drawing a battle in the anime that did not appear in the manga, we will make sure we have Oda's approval, and we will express it and merge it with the manga content as much as possible.” Well, that settles the debate then.

    Speculations How the flying duck did Tama get to Onigashima?

    I'll quote myself from the actual chapter thread: "Nobody can come up with a convincing explanation how an 8-year old girl and her gigantic dog can somehow suddenly appear on the battlefield in Onigashima. She couldn't have "sneaked" on a ship, since she would've had to hide that massive dog...

    Speculations Who wields the bloody sword at the end of 985?

    At the end of chapter 985 we see someone holding a boody sword and then a crying Kiku in the very next panel. This has obviously lead the majority of fans to assume that this is Kiku's sword. There is one problem however: I just clearly isn't her sword, completely different pattern (wave form)...

    Speculations Orochi's betrayal

    So I wanted to start a thread to speculate about the exact way how Orochi betrayed Oden in the end. We know it will be a shocking and disgusting act, since we already saw Kinemon telling the story to the SHs/alliance and literally everyone was in tears and shocked, with even Luffy flipping his...

    General & Others Pacing of the anime

    Felt the need to post that here: Why on earth did the creators of the anime start to completely butcher the pacing over the course of the story? Just for a comparison - back in the old days, things looked like this: - chapters 1-99 were done in 52 episodes (almost 2 chapters per episode) So...
