    Wonder if he'll get to do something with the ancient robot

    General & Others Next Straw Hat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

    At this point I think there's only 1 of 2 possibilities going forward with Bonney's character. A: she joins as the final Strawhat B: she becomes a major recurring ally like Law As of the current chapter, Bonney and Kuma have appeared more this arc than Luffy has. The only non-Strawhats who...

    The way I see it, there'd be no reason for the story to go out of its way to show off that Bonney's fruit is capable of all this crazy stuff if she was just going to leave the story after Egghead. If Oda wanted her to be another arc ally like Kyros/Rebecca/Paulie/Wyper/Conis/Yamato, he could've...

    Idk the way I see it this flashback is supposed to be a tragedy, probably moreso than anything else we’ve seen in One Piece. I think Kuma dying for real would be a heartwrenching but appropriate conclusion to his story

    I agree that Kuma choosing to sacrifice himself for Bonney wouldn't change that he's so filled with love for his daughter that he doesn't even care that he needs to die. But at the same time I think that the backstory overall is elevated by the fact that we knew before it even started how tragic...

    Honestly I sorta do. I don’t think it undermines it AS much since Robin still lost a lot of people regardless, but here Kuma’s and Bonney’s relationship is so central to their flashback that I feel like their whole storyline wouldn’t be nearly as impactful if they manage to bring Kuma back Like...

    I think if Kuma sees Luffy in Gear 5 before dying and getting to say goodbye to Bonney before dying, that would be a really great way to tie his story together. My main issue though is if they manage to have Kuma return to his original self for good, then I think that it sorta cheapens the...

    I think I would prefer it if the Seraphim were treated more like independent characters rather than simply extensions of the originals. I could see S-Bear breaking free of his programming and attacking Saturn because he retains the love Kuma had for his daughter, but I would definitely prefer it...

    At this point I don't think there's any way for Kuma to come back. They've spent multiple chapters hammering home that Kuma is functionally dead and that he is choosing to sacrifice his life to save Bonney. And that's not even getting into how Akainu melted off half of his face. Vegapunk said...

    If Bonney joins the crew and the Strawhats don’t try to kill all the Celestial Dragons, that would some character assassination shit She more than anyone on the crew should hate the CDs with every fiber of her being 1699628361 So while I don't want to get, like, too deep into this shit...

    Idk man I get the vibe that Kuzan is completely serious about this shit

    Yeah I could see Law teaming up with Luffy to save them, but it’d feel so weird if he joined Luffy’s crew after coming so far with his own

    I think his crew will actually be safe. They’re established to be good swimmers and the Blackbeard Pirates are Devil fruit users

    Kinda don't like the idea of Law joining another crew after this tbh

    General & Others Next Straw Hat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

    Let's say you're Oda trying to pitch to your editor who the final Strawhat will be. This is how it would go for each candidate. Vivi's already a Strawhat so I'm excluding her Yamato: -The daughter/son of a major antagonist -Adopts the actual identity of a character who's only centrally...

    Or Wano just comes up in a cutaway sequence cause we've been doing that a lot this arc 1682112019 Luffy promised her that she won't need to go hungry anymore and he made good on that promise

    Explicitly confirmed by the author in an SBS she was only referring to Orochi btw

    Considering that Kuzan is a Titanic Captain and that the Titanic Captains are supposed to contrast the Strawhats... idk definitely looks like Smoker is probably joining

    General & Others Next Straw Hat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

    1. Kuzan is 100% serious about joining Blackbeard. I could maybe see him hesitating to hurt Robin, but there's no way he can be talked out of fighting them. 2. Sanji and Kuzan have nothing in common outside of some surface-level ice vs fire thing. The BB pirates are meant to be evil mirrors of...

    Posted this on a discord server so I figured I should repost it here 1. The title of the Chapter references Kuzan being the final titanic captain. It would only make sense for there to be a chapter titled "the tenth" in reference to the final strawhat to contrast this. 2. The Blackbeard...
