Character Discussion (TCB translation) Worm God is Wyrm God

[ArturCantSpeakJapanese]

" Wyrms (alternatively wurms, worms or orms) are serpentine dragons, normally of European origins. The word (derived from the Norse 'ormr') used to mean all dragons (or all dragons known in Europe/European dragons),

but in modern use it is reserved for dragons with 'wormlike' qualities:

a long body shape which is either legless or with small legs "

It's not Wyrm in Japanese. Wyrm like a dragon is ワイアーム or ウィルム, worm like it's written in the raws is ワーム. This is just TCB coping because they don't want to admit it's a straightforward Dune reference

Loda enjoyed Dune 2 a little too much.

the guy's the god of agriculture, worms are pretty important for that makes sense.

and I'm gonna lose it if luffy uses him to dildo slap the other gorosei, Oda would do that

Just an FYI theres no way TCB would have known it was spelled Worm or Wyrm. The katakana doesnt specify a difference, so that was absolutely just flavor text.

there's an established way to write "wyrm" in katakana already from earlier fantasy works. i posted the kana in my last post. "waiaamu" (ワイアーム) or "uirumu" (ウィルム) vs "waamu" (ワーム)

Truly the best and most interesting Gorosei. The seeming youngest but also the rank #1 and also the only non Yokai out of the group and named after the largest planet.

Oda is really trying to single my man out among the Gorosei.

He is not the strongest they are ranked by age

Yes they do their hire Japanese people to translate don’t look down on Japanese people kid you would think they know their own language

 

[Natalija]

Biggest question is, did Oda watch Dune


I want to be part of the Worm cult.
