the cutest
>>290860853Gunko after swallowing lord Imu nut
So what's Oda putting in 1200? Not all '00s are huge, but he's really been stalling lately. It's not enough to get to Imu's defeat with mere 7 chapters and plenty of sideplots that need to concude by then. Zoro and Sanji's fight will be either 1 or 2 chapters each. Hybrid Loki vs. Imu is also at least 1 more chapter. Then there's the Gunko plotline. I'm not sure if we'll even see Biblo before it ties into the Imu fight. I say 1200 could be the start of the climax of the arc, maybe after his henchmen are defeated, Imu orders Elder to send Uranus Elbaf's way?
>>290860817My King
Jinbei's group could do more but at least they're doing something while with Bonney I'm not even sure why she's in this arc--just to be useful again when it's over? She can turn characters into toddlers; she could at least try helping even without fighting directly. She could make Jarul young or Colon a top tier which would be fun to see.
Can you take it all away?Can you take it all away?Well, you shoved it in my faceThis pain you gave to me
>>290860817But he just exists to job and can't kill anyone? Imagine not being able to kill anyone when Usopp is right thereShit character, shit arc
>>290861041>when Usopp is right thereand a depleted luffy who was lying on the ground for minutes and a one armed gaban and a low tier giant and nico robin who the world government seems to be after but stops caring about when they could just get her
>>290860817>Brook runs off on his own>doesn't tell the others why>Usopp runs off on his own>doesn't tell the others whyPeople say SHs are coworkers, not nakama, but now I suspect they are even less than that.
Does /opg/ still love evil women?
>>290861027For a manga all about funky abilities OP likes to sideline them way too much with the "erm, willpower says no" excuse
>>290861027>no baby Imu
>>290861066body of a child, vile
>>290860817idk he's kinda weak for having thousands of years of training. imagine luffy having this much time
>>290861027>She could make Jarul youngGaban
>>290861089>child imu vs giant baby loki vs grandpa luffyi want fun piece back
>>290860817This is my OC donut steel character.His name is IMU (which is umi backwards. tl note: umi means SEA in japanese)He has THE devil's fruit. it's like a devil fruit, but it's the FIRST one, and it has ALL the devil fruit powers within it.he is IMMORTAL and has BLACK ANGEL WINGS and WHEELS WITH EYES like biblcally accurate angels.he is the secret KING of the WORLD government which means he is even HIGHER than the FIVE ELDERShe can summon 19 SWORDS from the CREATORS of the world government and each sword is SUPREME GRADE tierhe also has black flames that can't be put out like ITACHI from NARUTOand he was a good friend of JOYBOY
>>290861183Donut steel character wouldn't have been sent flying like 5 times including at the hands of a jobber like hajrudin
>>290861183And he is a flamboyant pretty boy like Madara and so many anime villains
>>290861201if it's just for them to shrug it off yes they would
Umi backwards is Miu
>>290861077Oda isn't nearly as creative as one would think and his assistants don't seem to help much.
love these two niggas
>>290861234Shrugging off would be the admirals taking whatever luffy threw at them at marineford or kaido during his first encounter with luffy. Imu is already in his weez weez white eyes phase.
>Oiiii... Saint Sommers, I didn't hear no bell.
>>290861105Shut up, woman
>>290861077Because it's not a manga about funky abilities, it's a manga about punching/kicking/slashing hard. These other abilities are just for flavor. Think about Thriller Bark. You had hax Perona. Was the main problem of the arc "how to overcome Perona hax"? No, it was a side mission for a quirky character on the good guys' side, the main fights were all about powerlevels. Even Dragon Ball did something like this early on, having side enemies with quirky abilities like Chaozu or Invisible Man be taken out by side characters, but then Goku was the one to fight the main antagonist in a more traditional duel.
>>290861066Shuri is a good girl, mean for sitting her on your lap and patting her head.
>>290861308>"how to overcome Perona hax"Nowadays the answer would be strong haki
>>290861126In OP you got stronger by challenging yourself. Once you're the strongest, there's nowhere to go. I think that Roger's generation might have kept growing until their ages caught up to them because they had each other to bicker with. Roger would be much weaker if there was no Whitebeard or Garp.
Is it break next week?
>>290861353yip
>>290861331To be fair, it's not like the real answer was much more refined, one of the heroes just turned out to be immune. Kinda like when Krillin defeated the smelly guy because he doesn't have a nose.
>>290861308>Because it's not a manga about funky abilities, it's a manga about punching/kicking/slashing hard. These other abilities are just for flavor.Now this goes a bit far, OP is overrated with a ton of wasted potential but I wouldn't say DFs are that irrelevant
>>290861492They are. Kaido literally spells it out. Roger and Whitebeard were equally matched on haki, but WB had an OP fruit on top of it. Did it matter? No. They were equal because their powerlevels were equal. Almost every arc comes down to Luffy out-powerleveling a guy, and very rarely he has problems more complicated than "how can I punch this unpunchable guy".
>>290861027tbf we just got story relevant age manipulation stuff with momonosuke. what's a bummer is how much fruits repeat themselves in how they are used. still can't believe oda basically just decided that bon clay's fruit would be too useful for the story so he made a quick clone
>>290861625>just>170 chapters ago
>Zoro casually practicing CH on Sommers
>>290861353Yeah, a magazine one so no chapter of anything.After that we should get a chapter and then a real Oda break most likely.
It's crazy how shit the anime is and that Oda allows them to shit on his characters.
i love lilith
>>290861473It fit the comedic nature of one piece and required oda to be creative to come up with workarounds for hax power such as this or certain logias. Plus it gave side characters more chance to shine whereas nowadays any strong character could tank perona's powers with sheer haki alone if oda willed it without having to provide further explanation.
>>290861780Queen was a way better character than king at least. Still hard to believe he is Franky's father and Oda apparently does nothing with it lolProbably the biggest wtf in the series for me
>>290861126Its called PIS retard-kun
>>290861809In a way refreshing because not every anime parent needs to be an amazing person with some special relationship with their kid, but yeah it's odd.
>>290861809>>290861850King was portrayed as somewhat sympathetic, so they'll most definitely both help the Straw Hats in some way during the final arc.
>>290861780It's literally a mistranslation. Sanjifag victim complex is something else.
>>290861809>70++ chapters building up the scrabbards just for them to have their screentime taken by kaido's ""son"" who popped out of nowhere at the beginning of the raid>tama being a korozumi being hinted in a cover page near the end of the arc and confirmed in an sbs>zoro never visiting ryoma's grave and him being revealed to be a descendant of ryoma... in an sbs>marco joining the raid only to have like 5 pages of fighting>izo and ashura randomly dying>after a decade of hype the new admiral was made to look like a pussy in three chapters by a guy who came to promote his movieIt's clear that oda bit much more than he could chew with wano idk how he will be able to handle the final war which will have like 5x as many relevant characters
Sanji is about to be the King of Love
>>290861960You forgot kaido's most loyal and most bestest subordinate JACK THE DROUGHT being almost offscreened
>>290860959good body shape, a shame it is ai dogshit and wont be getting saved
Wororororo... You are a good boy Jack... The best that ever was...
>>290861807Gunko outplayed the SHs with her fruit early in the arc, Apoo neg-diff'd Luffy on Onigashima, Hancock hax annihilated half Blackbeard's crew, Killer's Onigashima fight was about saving Kid from Hawkins' power, Stussy took out Lucci and Kaku temporarily, Elbaf kids couldn't just be saved because of combination of Gunko's and Sommers' abilities. It's not like these things don't happen anymore. It's just that as always it's relegated to side characters or used to prevent Luffy from getting to the boss early, whereas the big boy fights come down to who has the bigger hammer. Overcoming logia's weaknesses is also overrated by the fanbase, Luffy only had to figure it once, the other time he just so happened to be the perfect counter. His real problem was Enel's mantra, and while he had to try to figure it out in their original duel, the final resolution is Enel just deciding not to use it in their last clash making the whole subplot moot.
Btw did jack make top 300 in the latest poll
>>290861807>required oda to be creative to come up with workarounds for hax powerthat's letting the tail wag the dogOda came up with Perona specifically as an opponent only Usopp could beat
Luffy's next buff is developing a hybrid gear 5 form that he can sustain for a long time. It will contain the traits of every gear so far and it will be his ultimate formt. scholar of shonen tropes
Bi-Weekly Piece!
>>290862138>yfw gear 4 was already his hybrid
>>290862138Gear 5 can already do everything other Gears can. And Gear 4 already made both previous Gears obsolete if it wasn't for stamina drain.
>>290862151I wouldn't mind bi-weekly piece if Oda could just lock in to compensate. Like, what HAS actually happened since Imu came back? He knocked over a few guys who then got up, and also freed his minions resetting the kidnapping plotline that still hasn't move an inch. Also teases of Gunko and Biblo that are still to move anywhere.
Finally a chapter that isn't just characters throwing themselves at Imu
>>290862186Yeah but he's just freestyling it. He'll manually control the gears, I'm calling this mechanic Gearshift. OC donut steal
>>290861282I love how they just drive a boat towards her like they just hijacked a truck and ran it off a bridge in GTA.
>>290860817reminder that Gunko's body is forever 15
>>290862213>what HAS actually happened since Imu came backThey dropped a new god, unveiled like 13 weapons, showed the mechanical heart mechanic, cut off an arm and introduced the knight buffs
"One Piece is political" crowd is going to be real quiet about this trvke
>>290861943>doesn't know how Japanese works>think it's only the singular that's wrong with it>insulting straw hat members and thinks he is an OP fansubhuman post
>>290862296What is Oda fearing, China or Africans?
>>290861960>>70++ chapters building up the scrabbards just for them to have their screentime taken by kaido's ""son"" who popped out of nowhere at the beginning of the raidStill the biggest trash character of all time since she made even the characters around her look bad by reacting in a stupid way to her mental illness to not offend troon readers.
>>290860817>>290860853The funniest.
>>290862296Why? Oda doesn't beat you over the head with morality except with obviously evil stuff like slavery and genocide, in regards to culture he is always nuanced about it.Like how he on one hand pointed out how the Shandorians were retarded but at the same time how their beliefs were also important in the Noland flashback.
>>290862267So it's a pedophile manga just like Oda's friend's
>>290862296But that's a political stance anon.Anyways I can't believe that we're still arguing about this, the last talk between Harald and Ida already told us everything for Elbaf's future
>>290862267Expired honestly
>>290862267When did she become immortal?
>manga about pirates>almost no sea adventures>tiny islands and fun quick treasure hunts>running into bounty hunters>threatening sea monsters>sea battles>morally gray stuff and actual piracy from the protags
>>290862430Oda's creativity is a myth, he just draws a lot of freak characters
>>290862424Very early, Imu probably locked her mind right away and gave her the same pact as the Gorosei.
>>290861066She flaunts her cunny like she's proud of it
>>290862430“When you’re at sea you fight pirates” was kewl
>>290862430>>290862444nice samefag, resident monkey
>>290862355>>290862403>WhyBecause "One Piece is political" crowd is mostly leftists and this message goes directly against their own narratives. Which means that they'll ignore it just like they ignore the 89 monarchies that Luffy supports
>>290862430Literally all things that happened in the East Blue
>>290861353It'll always be a post chapter break from now on.
>>290862479Putting the strawmen and phantoms in your head aside, are you implying it is or it isn't political?
>>290862151>2 weeks just for a 20 pages of Zoro and Sanji beating up fodders>then break again
>>290862498>fodders
>>290862493that's why early one piece is peak, especially with all the filler episodes
>>290862505you must have missed all the chapters talking about how they are surprisingly weak. just because they got some undefined "power boost" doesn't make them more exciting
I miss Rape Piece...
>>290862493Shame that for 15 years now it's just some shitty edgy JRPG arcs back to back.
>>290862479I consider myself pretty left leaning and I could care less about those viral posts about people hailing One Piece as a communist manifesto. What Oda wants to say with this manga's clear so just ignore larpers.>>290862520East Blue is only good for Baratie and Arlong Park
>>290862296>genuflecting to colonial powers was a mistake because they never sought anything less than our total subjugation and every concession we made was just making it easier for the monotheists to conquer us whenever they felt like itVery political. A pattern seen in history time and time again
>>290862430oda's main influence is shit like dragon ball and viki the viking, dunno what you people expect
>>290862535If they are weak, Sanji and Zoro are even weaker
Lmao this spic panel got a good chuckle out of me
>>290862554>East Blue is only good for its two biggest arcs!But no it's also good for all the little stopovers and worldbuilding and obviously the meeting and recruiting all the characters in the first place which doesn't seem to matter to a fake fan retard like you
>>290862577but they are obviously beating them?
>>290860817Thought this was Darth Vader's helmet at first glance.
>>290861126he's been playing with butterflies in a flower room for 800 years
>>290862763I coom
>>290862763jinbe is so lucky
I haven't posted here in like eight years. Is Monet confirmed alive yet?
>>290862887Sanji’s malewife needs to be corrected
>>290862972She's dead as shit lmao
>>290863024Well, time to ask again in eight years. She'll be alive by then.
>>290860912I don't care about popularity poll. Tashigi is still my queen.
>>290863100She's so plain, I feel bad for Zoro
>>290863194She is perfect.
just caught up, holy shit nu piece is slow and bad
>>290863249then why did you bothering catching up
>only ~6 chapters left for the entirety of 2026
>>290863322wut
>>290863322>"I swear, One Piece is ending in 2027 with the 30th anniversary."
Zoro Oden memes fully canonically accurate as many scholars had predictedZoro's lucky Oden let Enma give him his ACoC just to defeat King. Now Zoro must learn to do it himself.
>>290863336There's 15 weeks left of the year.Next week is a confirmed break so really only 14.At his best Oda does 3 chapters / 1 break, so that brings it down to ~9 chapters left assumming Oda doesn't have any health scares.Not sure how many WSJ breaks are left this year but that would bring it down even further.
>>290862151it's bi? that's just like me frfr
>>290860817I'll be honest with you guys, I understand hating zorofags because they're obnoxious fightfags, but all this week it was people crying about the chapter but it was a pretty good Zoro chapter all things consider.
>>290863358Enma gave Zoro cock? sounds hot
>>290863498Zoro's always been a decent character. It's just his fans are annoying as fuck.
the solution is to stop reading weeklyI read OP in batches of 3 or 4 chapters (depending on how many breaks BUMda decides to take) and it's much more enjoyable
>>290863443There's always an end of the year break in December (though we usually get the chapter early). So there's 13 more Jump issues left this calendar year. One Piece will be in the next one (the one after the current break), and will almost certainly skip the one after that going by his patterns. So that leaves us with 11 issues after 1194. But if he went for 3 chapters -> break -> 3 chapters -> break -> 3 chapters, his next break would come right after the Jump break, and he always avoids it, so he'll likely take a break earlier to avoid a double break. So going up to 1202 would be the realistic-optimistic scenario.
>>290863644no we're not, it's just that sanjicucks are insufferable
>>290861960you forgot:>carrot being built up since zou to be at the very least a good dependable ally only for her to job, even WITH wanda, to perospero who was obviousy set up for HER to solo at some point>neko and inu, as part of the same problem, not teaming up to take down Jack which would've been way cooler and made Jack seem stronger>Jack in general, after being built up as one of the coolest characters in OP history during zou, just being clowned on and doing nothing for the rest of his time in the manga for literally no fucking reason>meanwhile asura dogi, built up to be strong as FUCK able to solo him, doing nothing at all notable and fuckin dying from slipping on a banana peel or some shit -- you didn't forget this but i'm saying it again for emphasis cuz what the fuck>no MEANINGFUL deaths ever sticking, even though Kinemon had the absolute best death scene fucking ever, even better in the anime in a rare toei W, only to come back as a farting butt again immediately after. What the fuck.> cp0 being built up to be so fucking cool and mysterious only to do absolutely nothing but die like fools and we never even saw any of them unmasked or named outside of sbs>then the 'real' relevant cp0 is literally just cp9 again, ALL of them DESPITE their cover story giving them an extremely strong 'out' from the government, despite Spandam being a failure etc. >the promise for Jinbe to get toasted and officially join the straw hats after the battle... which never happened>the promise for Yamato joining the crew also being weirdly dodged at the last possible second (this is a good thing, but still)>the entire post-onigashima part of the arc feeling strongly like it was intended to have way more and cover a lot of these problems more elegantly and allow for stuff like zoro visiting the grave erasing some of them completely, but it just didnt happen cuz ????, even with the film red shit it doesn't make sense why they had to leave so fast and skip all this shit
>>290863723despite all this i still enjoy the series and think Egghead and Elbaf have been a really great return to form, best arcs (other than Zou) since pre-TS for sure, but man, Wano was such a fucking mess. Dressrosa and WCI to a lesser extent too, just Oda trying to cram WAY too much shit into one arc and not really able to give it all the attention it needs to work. I like his attempt to worldbuild so much but my God it feels like the manga needed to be YEARS longer than it already is to make all this shit work.
>>290863774Egghead and Elbaf while overall much better than the preceeding 400 chapters have the same problem every post-TS arc had, once the climax starts, instead of it going smoothly, it just keeps dragging. Vegapunk's message was 14 chapters and the only notable thing he said was the world sinking, characters kept running around clashing with Gorosei, but the only notable thing that came out of it was Giants enter and Bonika (whether you like it or not, but it was important). Similarly, Imu has been on Elbaf for 15 chapters now, and basically nothing happened.
>>290860817And the future strongest:
>>290864035Ragnir
I liked this chapter. Sommers is a cool villain and Zoro just cutting all the talk and just immediately stabbing him in the heart was pretty funny; he had good reactions. If Sommers is spooked and tries to escape or something that would be a funny inversion of the formula. I don't care about Sanji and don't know why (name i can't spell) was huge in the panel he got kicked, i thought these guys were human sizedI want more lore and the bait with Ginko and the owl was annoying, maybe its all the breaks, i'm tired of getting blueballed
>Loki get your ass ready boy, I am going in raw
>yes we might lose everything but would you rather have been called a racist??
>>290863358It turns out Zolo was YC3 tier all along... he was just lucky Emma activated his ACOC for that single attack to King.
>>290864201>Imu pretending that nothing happened after getting his ass ruptured by Vivi's massive weapon (he loved it)
>Leave KekMU to me.
>>290860912>Big Meme and Kaido lower than Enellol
>last chapter Usopp denounces Nika, Joyboy and Roger comparisons and says Luffy is his own person>this chapter giants actually question Haralds goals and his pacifism may have actually led Elbaf to a dark path I like these two chapters
>>290864307There seems to be an unintentional morality to the last few arcs which is, if you're a coward you deserve to lose and only the powerful get to succeed. Kuma, Oden, The Giants its all the same. If you're a slave you get trammelled. The morality is just kill all your enemies
So this is strongly pointing in the direction that we'll actually see Zoro kill Sommers. Which would be unusual for One Piece as the straw hats have never killed a named antagonist on panel beside maybe Kaido.
>>290864654Thats been Odas way since forever. His idea is not to kneel to your oppressors, but to punch them, real fucking hard.
>>290864655Even if they are dead if it wasn't for the lava tube opening up both kaido and big mom would have just landed on the ground.... and idk honestly it's probably why oda had them fall in lava to avoid dealing with them.I can't see them being put in jail, the joker would last longer being put in arkham then either of those two in prison... but at the same time would oda have had them being executed?
>>290864421>SilhouettedGod fucking dammit Oda
>>290864655Paving the way to Imu's own weak point.
>>290864655Old news, we know Sommers and KG will be killed because that will weaken Imu. Defeating them without killing them wouldn't.
>>290860817All the BBsissies seething in the replies
>>290864654>unintentionalOda is a hyper socioleftycuck. If anything, Harald is likely his ''literally me'' guy.He actually can't imagine nightmare scenarios like the west. He's childish and sheltered from the world which he allegedly loves so much.
>>290863498It's a redo of the Pica/Monet/Guy from fishman island fights where the only point is to make Zoro look cool by insisting on how much stronger he is than his enemy and how he could have totally one shoted him at any point. Kinda boring at this point.
>>290864751Still odd beccause Oda is a very formulaic writter and he hasn't had straw hats kill any bad guys on screen for nearly 30 years.
>>290864654Except he already used Hody to say that that is bad. He tried to kill the WG and human-sympathetic royal family and then take over the world government. And unlike Kuma, he's the bad guy.
goodnight /opg/
>>290864655All the GKs and CDs will get away with just being scared straight.
>>290861183This reads like a Space Funeral quote
>>290861105what? americans are mind broken
>>290861066I love evil women and hags
>>290860817>swordsorry, Mihawk is stronger
>>290865206same
Oda really sucks at writing consequences/tension. He doesn't want to sacrifice a single one of his characters
>>290865601>Oda is a Good GodDamn, you really like Oda
>>290865657Problem is, because of this, Imu doesn't feel menacing. What if Imu just straight up killed Gerd, instead of slicing her fingers?What if Imu critically wounded Zoro and Sanji?What if Imu actually left Luffy for dead and blew up Elbaf?Imagine a manga where the remaining strawhats had to desperately struggle against a powered up Killingham and Sommers?
>>290865695We're long past the point of complaining about this
>>290860817its amazing just how fast Oda made me hate Imu.female Imu would have way better than this dogshit
So what is in ze box?
>>290865831Hopefully Oda's editors
>>290865831the long lost weapon of the nefeltari family that can severely hurt imu
>>290865831It's a poneglyph
>>290865886what did they mean by this
>>290865831This arc's version of the haki knot is the only right answer
>>290865886Crop out the lanklet
>>290861774Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me, but apart from Oda's surgery break, I can't remember such a bad streak of Oda breaks and magazine breaks in recent years. Being stuck in this slow fight might also have also exacerbated that "nothing's happening" feeling I have, together with the frequent breaks.
>>290865831Hopefully letters from Douzan and a first world artifact that somehow counters Imu. Aka more first world lore, more void century hints, and a Loki buff.Imu mentioned that Douzan was forced to work with the 20Kings for a while and later betrayed them. The whole Gallelyla gigants geting frozen for sure was part of his plan to help Elbaf future generations.
Now that is confirmed Zolo doesn't know how to use COC... the SH tierlist.Luffy > Sanji > Jimbe > Zolo > Franky > Brook > Nami > Robin > Chopper > Usopp
>>290861788
>devil fruit possibly taking over luffy cause zoan shit>joyboy used the same fruit>vegapunk told us that he cannot assume who was good or evil during the void centuryIMU WAS THE GOOD GUY
>>290865831Alright /opg/, next chapter you can either seen the continuation of the fight against Imu, or you forego it and instead see what's inside this box.
>>290860817I hate the way he talks and I his design, it should have made him look more out of place
>>290862430>almost no sea adventureswe had them all the time, we even had one fighting a vegapunk, like are you a goldfish?>tiny islands and fun quick treasure huntsbruh wasnt alabasta like the size of Earth? but yes, a flooded world thats full of islands having island adventurers, what a fucking shocker>running into bounty hunterswe just had like 1000 of them in dressrosa, even harjudin was a bounty hunter>threatening sea monstersliterally egghead, the arc before this one were on, and the entire arc point of fishman island>sea battleswe just saw law get whopped by blackbeard while laws crew fought in the water, we just saw kidd get turned into fishfood, how short is your memory?>morally gray stuff and actual piracy from the protagsHAHA I WANT MY MC TO KILL A LITTLE GIRL HURR DURR. Meanwhile being friendly and helping struggling islands in a cruel world awards the Straw Hats with gifts constantly and they are always fucking loaded with cash. Why pillage when being a kind person is more rewarding? Also the entire point of the series is Luffy just wanting to be free and do whatever the fuck he wants. If you want an edgelord MC that murders people for the sake of murdering, go read korean slop.Also your pic directly inspired Skypeia. It had the same exact path like clouds for ships.
>>290866497WHAT'S IN THE BOX
>>290865831THAT thing
THAT thing from THAT man from THAT time in THAT place to be used at THAT event for THAT person
>>290863443Sounds about right. Not sure where the 6 chapters came from.

Call this cope or whatever but I thought of a way for Usopp to have his moment: Luffy, Loki, Gabban, Hajrudin, all of them keep throwing themselves at Imu but nothing does anything to him, Imu keeps getting back up. Eventually Imu keeps taking them down until Usopp is the only one left standing, and instead of running away, he decides to bullshit and ragebait Imu to stall for time since he doesn't know what else to do. We already saw that Usopp knows how to get under Imu's skin when he yelled Gunkimu to fight his own battles and that caused Imu to personally arrive at Elbaf. Also Imu is fairly emotionally unstable. So Usopp wastes Imu's time with bullshit and ragebait and outrages Imu and right when Imu is about to actually strike Usopp, the time limit runs out and he's sent back to Marijoa. Usopp then claims he scared Imu off.

The real question is how did Zoro lose his eye? It was a big deal back in Alabasta that a swordman only cut what they mean to cut. Zoro couldn't have lost his eye to the baboons, he already suppressed them all, that leaves Mihawk, a sword master who would never accidentally maim Zoro due to his skills, it would have had to be intentional.Once you think about what Growlo said about mixed eyes being able to awaken, the two known black blade creators being Ryuma and Mihawk, Imu having the same eyes as Mihawk, Imu and being able to imbue "maki" which is an energy of all things just like Breath of All Things can read, and Zoro's swordsmanship being descended from Ryuma's, you'll realize what's needed is an ability to see Maki if you want to imbue it; and Mihawk likely took Zoro's eye knowingly to create the next Ryuma. Joyboy is also likely the Eyepatch pirate that Oda mentioned showing up at the end of the story.
Is it worth it to start watching one piece again?I stopped right before timeskip and curious to know if it's worth picking back up yet or if I should just wait till last arc to finish it.>inb4 those recommending black and white comics, don't care for manga

>>290867721The first arc after the timeskip feels a bit like a slog. Animation and pacing hit rock bottom in the first couple arcs. You'd have to work through like 4 arcs (hundreds of episodes) until it improves again.

>>290868094>>290868171>C-can I watch?
>>290868138Oda always drags the last part of the arc right before the climax. It happened in Alabasta where they had to find that bomb. It happened in Skypeia when Enel put the gold ball on Luffy's fist. It happened in Thriller Bark when Moria did Shadow Asgard. This is not new, it just gets less problematic on reread.

Does post timeskip feature the same rehashed story plot of a damsel in distress getting rescued like pre timeskip did?Haven't watched since whitebeard war arc and didn't like how nami to vivi to Robin all were copies of the same tropes for an arc.
>>290870621To clarify, my favorite parts were from sabaody till whitebeard war
>>290870191you mean the thing loki never even bothers trying against imu even though it would help him land a hit even if it lasts only 5 seconds? oda a hack
>>290870621Not really outside of the fishman arc which has a cliche mermaid princess but other shit definitely repeats itself.
>>290870621Nearly every arc has either a princess or some other kind of damsel that needs rescuing.One particular arc is pretty much a mirror image of Alabasta. The core structure of the plot feels repetitive but some of the characters make up for it.
>>290866583>we have sea adventures ALL the time, we even fought an ugly robot for a whole chapter before moving on to the next arc, right after spending half a decade on a weeb islandOne line in and this post is already a banger>bruh wasnt alabasta like the size of Earth? but yes, a flooded world thats full of islands having island adventurers, what a fucking shockerWhat even is this brainfart? Someone criticizes the lack of smaller islands and you bring up Alabasta?>we just had like 1000 of them in dressrosa, even harjudin was a bounty hunterEither simply not true or not remotely a defining aspect of their role in the story>literally egghead, the arc before this one were onThose were robots and 1% of the arc>HAHA I WANT MY MC TO KILL A LITTLE GIRL HURR DURREven a child should know better than to make such a lazy strawman>Also your pic directly inspired Skypeia.

>>290870705that's another reason elbaf is the only good post timeskip arc, it doesn't do this
>>290870705>>290870691Are yall niggas fr?Another question, does this shit still follow the same sequence where sanji beats the 3rd strongest, zoro the 2nd strongest, and luffy beats the main villain for each arc?Or do they finally switch it up and have a different character inside (or outside) thr strawhats beats the boss of an arc for once?
>>290870781>Loki and Shuri are damsels in distress>the huge strong initially villain coded MAN and a female villain that beats everyone upok you just want to complain for the sake of it because you are an old unfucked roasty

>>290871109She was also all mental illness and actively making the arc even shittier.
>>290870828>>290870851Oda is too old and japanese to let Loki give the final blown to Imu but at least I expect it to be a combo attack. Egghead ending was a decent arc in that regard, for the first time the climax of the arc wasn't about wanking Luffy in 1v1 but about Bonney getting revenge of Saturn. Reason why I have high expectations for Loki and Elbaf ending. After all Loki was introduced as the one that will destroy "the world".PD: A lot has to change to convince me Sommers is stronger than KG. So this time we may get Sanji beating the 2nd strongest villain of the arc.

>>290871270So everyone was a retard autist in the first age?
>>290871051>Gets mad cuz he read the truthlol>>290871109Being a "damsel distress" just means you are the important character of the arc that needs help from Luffy, it doesn't mean the damsel is completely powerless. For example Shirahoshi saves Fishman Island from getting destroyed by the Noah. Something that Luffy couldn't do.
>>290871301Shirahoshi stopping Luffy from destroying Noah is not comparable to Yamato freezing the bombs, taking out Kaido's men, and fighting Kaido himself. Dumbass.
>>290871301the truth: >>290871051
>>290871178>the climax of the arc wasn't about wanking Luffy in 1v1 but about Bonney getting revenge of Saturn>by larping as Luffy and still needing Mary Sueffy to assistLet's not give Oda too much credit
>>290870828Sometimes other characters take part in defeating the big bad but it's pretty much always Luffy who finishes the job. There’s some exceptions here and there but they hardly matter.Aside from that the hierarchy of Luffy > Zoro > Sanji still stands but in terms of fights we don’t see it as often as in the pre timeskip.Sanji doesn’t really get any meaningful 1v1 fights until Wano which is the first arc to sway back to the formula of Luffy fighting the main boss while Zoro and Sanji deal with the 2nd and 3rd strongest goons.
>>290871301>important character of the arcmomonot yamato who wasn't introduced until onigashima
>>290871300A lot of them were autistic but their wills are not strong to reassert themselves through the fruit.Certain ones like Nika, Nidhogg, etc... are not only strong enough but both reassert fully and are world-changing in their power.That's why Imu doesn't care about some shitter fruit respawning but cares about the Nika and Nidhogg fruits specifically. Likely the other "gods" as well.
>>290871178>>290871038Does luffy ever lose post timeskip or does he always macguffin beat the last boss of every arc like he did skypeia onwards?Haven't kept up since pretimeskip ended.What I liked about naruto and bleach was that the MC would lose often or how we often saw a stronger secondary character do the heavy lifting instead of ichigo or naruto every time.
>>290871329>Shirahoshi stopping Luffy from destroying NoahLol.>not comparable to Yamato freezing the bombsCalm down tard, lots of damselss were key to save the SHs and or their island, Yamato isn't special.>>290871333Ok schizo.

>>290871440Way to cherry pick you shitposting tranny. Name a single arc damsel in the past who's fought against the main villain of that arc for several chapters by themselves.
>>290871301>Being a "damsel distress" just means you are the important character of the arc that needs help from LuffyWano is all about Momo not Yamato you stupid bastard.
>>290871439He still loses or gets captured at least once nearly every arc.
>>290871359Its way more compelling when Luffy guides and inspires others towards finding/fighting for their own freedom (Egghead/Bonney) rather than him just punching harder while the arc character stays undeveloped (Wano/Yamato)>Let's not give Oda too much creditTrue. But compared to Wano, Egghead is 100 steps in the right direction.
>reddit spacing
>>290871528>while the arc character stays undeveloped (Wano/Yamato)yamashit was just a last minute afterthought rather than some key character of that arc. you could easily remove her keeping the arc 99% the same
>>290862555>>290867786>colonialWorld government isn't colonial, it creates vassal states rather than colonies. Vassal states are technically locally run, meanwhile colony has no independence and is run by the empire directly. World government runs the world the way US runs Japan, everyone is technically independent but if they do something the empire doesn't like they'll get nuked. That's not a metaphor for British control over India, guys
>>290871566this but carrot
>>290871439>Does luffy ever lose post timeskip or does he always macguffin beat the last boss of every arc like he did skypeia onwards?The later, post-time skip doesn't have a Sabaddy but its also true that he runs away from certain islands without defeating the big bad a couple of times.>Haven't kept up since pretimeskip ended.If you are here you are probably quite bored so I think you should read it. Its a solid 7.5 most of the time, with some peaks and valleys along the way.
>>290871478>Name a single arc damsel in the past who's fought against the main villain of that arc for several chapters by themselves.Now this is a great example of shitposting cherry picking. And even tho you tried very hard, Loki also applies here.
>>290871633>reading comprehension >n-no uI accept your concession
>>290871466>Is there aspects you'd say post time skip do better than pretimeskip?Its difficult to pinpoint some particular aspects because Oda writing style is basically the same, but in terms of quality, lets say that in my top7 arcs, 3 are from the post-time skip. .
>>290862430the fact that rufy is a fucking saint is also a shame. the few lines about him being """"selfish"""" just don't hold up when he's ready to sacrifice himself for literally who every week
>>290871633He hated this one, captain.
>>290860912Very happy to see both Rayleigh and Drake poll in the 100s, but it's still a shit poll that wastes all the opportunity and tech available for something with 0 real insight. Of course, if you reduce it down to "just your no. 1 fave", Luffy will top the poll. Meanwhile making it about cumulative votes over time adds 0% info except who is corrupt enough to attempt to bot the survey.When they ask us to give a top 10 faves, as well as specific favourite heroes, villains, moral greys, males, females, paramercia zoan logia fruitless, cyborg fishman giant etc. etc. then we'll be getting somewhere.

>>290865831A Poneglyph
>>290872517I mean, as a writer you can justify it, but if Oda had this planned the correct thing to do is to left some kind of hint or implication about Shirahoshi being connected to someone else.
>>290872594Then where's the man marked by flames?
>>290872594A Poneglyph is one of the few thing I would discard. Biblo wants them to open it now so whatever its there it can help to win the fight, and the letter is already there for information, so the "tool" is something else.Maybe even a devil fruit.
>>290872651It's not a Road. Poneglyphs come in variety of weapon info, messages, or locations.
>>290872579No, and he drew a cover of a critter taking it from him, so you can theorize him hiding a Davy nose.

>>290873176Is it really worse than Monkey?
>>290873176It's just a silly retcon because Oda didn't come up with the "will of D." stuff right at the beginning of the story.Also, a lot of people name their children with a nickname in mind first over the full real name. Literally every culture ever has had trashy people like that.
>>290865831I thought it would be a parallel to Ragnir that Harjudin can have since they're brothers, a metaphorical shield to Loki's sword.Since the lore crew are there, it's probably lore related though and it'll help them somehow
>>290873241>It's just a silly retcon because Oda didn't come up with the "will of D." stuff right at the beginning of the story.Is there any evidence to that claim?

Nika derived joy from young boys. Imu is saving children from gomu gomu no rape gatling, which is why hes trying to get all the kids off elbaf
So in the end nerfed base Loki outperformed peak G5 Luffy.
>>290873447Luffy hasn't even moved the needle here, all he did was get like two lucky punches and distracted him a bit. Even Hajrudin's punch had a bigger impact lmao
>>290873447Loki is supposed to be like 3 tiers above Luffy so yeah, makes sense.
Urogue is the cloud traveler. Avoiding petty squables over poneglyphs, hes already found laugh tale and is doing laps at this point.
>>290868392Luffy
>>29086876721 and 16, this is normal
>>290873447As was expected
>>290873381And yet he'd give all his buddies the most op DFs to awaken anyways? Please
>>290873060Luffy and Ash both have hatsThey've been doing their thing since the late 90sThey're protagonist of a long, world-wide popular anime seriesThey were both dubbed by 4kidsa tiny, rat-like mascot character follows them around (and they share the same VA)
>>290874019Their dads are nowhere in their livesThey set off on a world charting adventure
>>290874019>>290874036Both are friends with cvnnies who have been raped (Misty & Bonney)
>>290874019I meant urouge and luffy my guy
>>290872543pirates
whatever it takes, i will suck imu's dick
>>290874601Akagami...
Zorobros…the pipeline has been struck
>>290874601Marshall D. Teach...
>>290872783Godro has always been stronger than these bums althoughever.
>>290874601Red dog...
>>290860912Remember when tamafags (singular) saw this and had a week long melty? Good times.
>>290874000The powers Imu gave to his underlings are different. They are introduced in their boxes as "devil powers" not "devil fruit powers" so the are the first to have that power, ever. They are not inherited powers.
>>290874601Rob Lucci...
>>290874601Killingham...
>was worried I'd automatically like all openings after loving all of Wano and Egghead's>feel meh on Elbaf's first onePhew
Can Nika Bonney make a difference here?
>>290874997Bonney's fruit would be in another tier of BS if it also allows her to have ACoC for free.
>>290867797Who is the strongest Charlotte that Page1 could beat
>>290875099Daifuku or Oven, they hold similar roles.
>>290868555This is the best chapter in a while because of all those things, it actually feels like the arc is moving forward now
>>290874997Yes, her devil fruit is broken beyond belief
>>290874642Not in Wano. Elbaph he will finally surpass them.
>>290874642>>290875242You now realize that Zoro has been closer to Luffy than Sanji in strength since the timeskip
>>290874997She can only do one big attack before exhaustion gets to her.
>>290875293Sanji then finally got his surge in Wano. Now both are on equal around once both use CoC on command and Luffy creeps them.
>>290874997>luffy doesn't make a difference>somehow the weaker version will
God I cannot wait to experience Sanji's CoC...
>>290875301>>290875320Where is Petan
>>290875474Recovering from the rape
>>290875467Pudding...
>>290874614strawman comic in 2026?
>>290875499Is there a med shortage in your village or something?
>>290875644Were these villages promised to you 3000 years ago?
>>290875484how could Nami do that
>>290874997yeah she couldve turned gaban and jarul into their prime
Bonney kinda sucked and us no wonder she flopped
>Zoro comes within 2cm of killing Sommers and only failed because he's using the wrong haki>"shit I missed"I mean I get it, Sommers is designed to be humiliated before he dies, but it's a bit frustrating when the only reason he hasn't lost is because his opponent doesn't know how to properly fight him.
>>290875467
yeah grrrrl that's AMAZEBALLS!!
>>290875499>>290875670Calm down, Abdullah. Don't blow up now...
>>290875923The fact that ALL that is needed to kill one of these guys is an ACOC attack in ther hearth is deeply retarded anyway.Roger pirates IQ massive downscale.Imu IQ huge downscale.
>>290874601Topman...
>>290875979I mean you also have to hit them directly in the heart which is counterintuitive as most people would aim for the brain
>>290875923On one hand I get it, holy knights probably are just the strongest in their family but not the world and the regen plus devil fruit are doing heavy lifting. Also they've been looking down on the straw hats the whole time and see them as worms to squash On the other, these holy knights should be deadly instead of the same as gag characters after the introduction of shamrock and the ones on god valley despite them getting beat by rocks
>>290876004>Also they've been looking down on the straw hats the whole time and see them as worms to squashThat's more because they've been raised their whole lives being told they're better than surface dwellers than anything having to do with power. I mean it took extraordinary circumstances to break Mjosgard's conditioning
>>290876004>after the introduction of shamrockHe didn't DO anything other than use his sword's DF on a Loki that couldn't fight back. Just because he's Shanks' twin doesn't mean he's his equal in power (please ignore that that's exactly what this means and there's no point in him being revealed if the two aren't going to have a duel in the final arc)
>>290876031>I mean it took extraordinary circumstances to break Mjosgard's conditioningMore like near death experience combined with mermaid pussy to change his ways
>>290876073Yeah which is pretty extraordinary circumstances
>>290876072I still don't know what Oda wants to even do with shamrockIt feels like he only exists to just existThe only thing I can see him doing is have luffy meet shamrock thinking he failed to become a great pirate before seeing him again only to get excited knowing his journey isn't over
Sommers was always a worthless comedy jobber
>>290876072Still though it's the same as the beast piratesOda putting comedy over menace ended up hurting them as a whole
>>290876122I see where you're coming from, like none of the beast pirates had heat from any buildup other than Jack and they had Jack job to some fat dick head no one cares about so that was wasted, even though he kind of should have died since the big elephant whacked him, well not that much there was just Queen standing up to big mom and King kicking the boat off the waterfall, little stuff like thatand it seemed like the Authur thought character quirks alone would make people care about these guys
>>290875467Killingham…
>>290876101SUPA Sommers solos Onigashima and all of the Beast Pirates (THE Kaido wins extreme diff)
>>290875997Ok aim to the brain, fail, what is the next usual weakspot you would try?... yeah.
You just know...
>>290876072>>290876099Watch as it's something super predictable like Shamrock reveals his Cerberus to Shanks saying something about how it's sword he inherited from his father, and at the end of the fight Shanks give a line about this is the sword he inherited from HIS father, Gol D Roger, before he unleashes the Divine Departure that kills Shamrock.
>>290876196Let's not forget that Orochi ninja squad that did absolutely fuck all and ate more page time.
>>290876369Sommers jobs to Ulti
>>290876474Nah, I'm thinking it goes like this>Shanks fights Shamrock but they reconcile>Shanks gets killed by Blackbeard (so Luffy has personal beef with him at the end)>Shamrock kills Garling, to avenge his motherThe mother thing is likely something that Garling lets slip towards the end. That's the point where Shamrock "switches sides".
>>290875582nah that's strawhat. strawman died in wano
tfw drunk and come here looking for thinking zoro.jpg so i can have a good LAUGHwill report back in a minute or three when I have revered from busted sidesgod post-TS is so fucking gay like triple quintuple mega queer gay
>>290876474kino
>>290865859fucking LOL'dWHAT THE FUCK NOBODY POSTED ZORO THINKING NOW I HAVE TO GO FIND IT FUCK YOU NEWFAG LOSERSZoro thinking is on the same gravitas as Kenpachi using both handsRetarded fun silly shit
>>290876508epic, you should screenshot and post it on Reddit it would do numbers there
I have to admit I like seeing Sommers get his shit kicked in. He’s such a fun to hate villain. He’s probably going to be killed by Zoro here so the straw hats learn the people empowered by Imu can die
>>290876506>Shanks gets killed by BlackbeardI think Shamrocks existence plotarmors Shanks from dying, at least until Shanks and Shamrock subplot happens. And honestly I think the BB vs Shanks will happen first (next arc) and then Shanks vs Shamrock in the final war, that can end in them 2v1 Garling or something like that.
Who do you think are the most likely candidates to board the Sunny and visit Laughtale among the SH?I think Yamato, Vivi and Pudding are good candidates.
>>290876602Has Oda made any of the SHs kill anyone yet? King was arrested at the end of Wano and all.
>>290876711Not for a lack of trying. I guess you can maybe count Ryuma but he was already dead.
>>290876711Zoro is the only one who straight up tries to kill people. This was lampshaded back when he first joined the crew, he casually says he killed Mr. 7
>>290876620Nah, Shanks vs Blackbeard comes at the very end, just before Luffy bs Blackbeard.That way Luffy finally meets Shanks at the culmination of the story, since it's a big "event" kind of thing where Luffy returns the strawhat and all that. That has to be done as Shanks has his last breath etc..Then Luffy is extra energized over this for the brawl with Blackbeard.That way it's maximum hype for that final fight.Shanks essentially only exists as a death flag : the person. He's like Kenobi. Only there so he can be struck down.
>>290876761>Nah, Shanks vs Blackbeard comes at the very end, just before Luffy bs Blackbeard.Nah, the pirate war that will decide the new PK happens in the next arc. And BB will be there too.After Luffy becomes PK and the OP is found, and we learn about the VC truth, that is when the final war happens.
>>290876738Also people post Luffy punching the Tenryuubito but memoryholed Zoro about to rape another Tenryuubito, if it weren't for Bonney.
Sommers and Killingham were basically confirmed to die when they went after children. It’s pretty obvious that they aren’t coming back from that in a shonen like One Piece
>>290876887caesar
>>290876924He was a main bad guy, not a Redshirt during his arc
>>290876924What does Julius Caesar have to do with one piece?
Please dump TCB
>>290876711By all metrics, the Straw Hats fight to kill. It's just that everyone they fight ends up surviving.
>>290877422Nami and Usopp killed Page1
>>290876602Zoro's reaction to information will never not be funny to me.>hey wanna see me do somethings I've never done before?>ah shit, I missed slightly and didn't murder you, my apologies
>>290877500Oh no, but did he die?
>>290877650yes they killed kim a lot
>Imu went to get the giants personally because of Dragon’s attacks on the Holy Land >Imu is clearly too bitch made to appear and 1 v 1 him>”the most dangerous criminal in history”>world nobles fear the rain godDragon is basically confirmed top 1
>>290877740>smoked Smokers ass which means he's either a stronger fruit and/or has CoC
>>290877812There’s zero doubt he has conqueror’s haki. He’s presumably top 3 in the world for haki, likely top 1.I could see the straw hat final battle being against Blackbeard while he fights Imu
>>290877847to me he's Gohan if Frieza went straight to earth instead of Namek and enslaved Earth for 30 years
>>290877740
>>290877740Time flows differently on Elbaf so it's possible the attack ov the holy land ended then I'm went to Elbaf.
