Questions & Mysteries Do the new arcs still mirror older arcs? What will Elbaf Mirror?

[Gear5PhoenixMan]

Whole Cake Island Mirrors Water 7, Wano Mirrors Enies Lobby and return to Water 7/Post Enies Lobby, Does this mean Elbaf mirrors Thriller Bark or does it mirror the filler arc before it: Ice Hunter Arc? After Elbaf will be a mirror of Sabaody and then Marineford? Though Wano also has similarities with Impel Down, Marineford, and drum island.

I also believe Skypeia mirrors Laughtale Arc and just like Luffy was immune to Enel's devilfruit power he will be immune to Blackbeard's earthquake power in Laughtale.

Maybe Oda just does callbacks from any random arc and I'm just overthinking.

Maybe Elbaf will mirror something else but I feel like it will be pretty original this time

Wano felt kinda like MF

Eh... maybe Jaya? I expect Elbaf to be short, and then lead directly to the route to Laugh Tale, the same way Jaya led directly to Skypiea.

Elbaf fascinates me, there's so much that could happen.

Skypeia my best bet

Skypiea?

 

[BakiDou]

Elbaf will mirror Nika, its all nika and joyboy, did you know about JoyBoy? Culture yourself if not.

Skypiea?

Most likely it will parallel multiple arcs like Wano.

But I think the main one will be Dressrosa.

Dressrosa:

- Dressrosa has a villain that goes by the name Joker, Elbaf has Loki who is a trickster
- Dressrosa had one of Usopp's best moments. Elbaf will be an Usopp focused arc.
- Usopp was worshipped as a God by the giant Hajrudin, Usopp will be worshipped by the giants of Elbaf
- Luffy met an old face Sabo, Luffy will meet Shanks


Punk Hazard:

-Law and Luffy form their alliance against the yonko Luffy/Usopp will form an alliance with the giants
- Giants kids in Punk Hazards, Giant kids in Elbaf
- Flying clown scientist Ceasar, Trickster loki and may meet vegapunk in Elbaf
- Punk Hazard is snowy, Elbaf snowed in the big mom flashback.


Dressrosa and Punk hazard connections:

- Doffy appeared in both arcs
- Ceasar clown, Doffy the joker
- Marines helped in both arcs
- Giants in both arcs

Usopp will be a great thing in there so there's no way it will mirror trash arcs like WCI or Zou:cheers:

Orange Town - Punk Hazard
Syrup Village - Dressrosa
Baratie - Whole Cake
Arlong Park - Wano
Logue Town - Epilogue

Little Garden - Elbaf
Drum Island - Luffy vs Blackbeard 1st fight
Alabasta - Final War
Jaya - Laughtale
Skypeia - Laughtale/Epilogue

Elbaf - Punkhazard/Dressrosa
Beehive - Whole Cake
Final War - Wano
Laughtale - Post Wano?

Elbaf - Water 7/Enies Lobby
Beehive - Sabaody
Final War - Marineford
Laughtale - Return to Sabaody/ Fishman Island. So Laughtale is somewhere they've already been hiding in plain sight.

Gonna make this a new post.

It's not really the arcs that mirror each other but the sagas.

Fish-Man Saga = East Blue Saga
SMILES Saga = Baroque Works & Sky Island Saga
Yonkou Saga = CP9 & Florian Triangle Saga
Final Saga = Whitebeard War Saga
