My Mom Reads One Piece - The Mammoth Tragedy of Zou 

Cat Viper = Garfield Dog Storm = Odie Possibly my favorite joke in the series.

Pssssssssst it’s me Mama Drawk. I finished the whole damn thing today. You may see me in here, I may talk to you if I feel like it.

I don't know why, but Mama Drawk trying to use the castle castle fruit to finagle extra food is hilarious to me. Very Luffy of her.

I dearly hope drawk and mama drawk get a spot at the reverie. I really want this channel to blow up its honestly my favorite one piece channel right now and I have been in the OP YT community for 10 plus years

BIG NEWS : Elephants are Fighting. A Castle shot a turtle. and a whole country of liars

PRIDE MONTH IS EVERYDAY WHEN YOU LOVE BON CLAY!!!!!!!!!!

Watch Grandma be the former Rocks Pirates navigator.

i think one of the reasons why he wrote the Gaimon ark early in the series was to say that the treasure is not gonna be the friends you find along the way, because i already did it with Gaimon

My favorite part is that they didn't even need Ryunosuke. Robin could have just made a staircase of limbs or something, so the dude's existence was just to suffer.

i remember watching the vod for this and being frustrated i couldnt share my inca/aztec/maya knowledge (i have had a hyperfixation on native american cultures for like 3 years now) first: It actually WAS aztec cultures who had canals for irrigation. the system is made of "chinampas," which are woven islands that float upon the lakes that they lived. (in case you dont know, mexico city, which is the modern day city containing the old tenochtitlan and teotihuacan, is pretty much entirely located on a lake basin. these aztec cities were built on lakes! thats how chinampas worked, with fishing in the lake and farming on the islands) The mayans, if they were next to lakes, may have done similar practices, but the vast majority of mayan settlements were deep within the mountains and jungles of the yucatan. They would slash and burn jungles to make way for farmland, and use terrace farming in hillier areas. Many cities of theirs werent even on freshwater; they would actually build their cities in the shape of a basin to catch rainwater in these cases. Its because of this that water lilies became a symbol of Mayan health, wellness, and wealth, because they could only grow in fresh water. (do with that information what you will) The incans were fucking AWESOME (as awesome as a miltary empire can be, at least) They did HEAVY masonry and terrace farming, and knew how to manipulate water and earth to AMAZING precision. Incan masonry was made in an interlocking way so that even the common earthquakes of the andes could not knock down their houses. If your entire house is built like a jigsaw puzzle then an earthquake cant do shit, it will just rumble around the giant blocks of stone for a bit. Their terrace farms were also made in an interesting way: a lot of them used soil taken from further down the mountains, since the andes are incredibly rocky. Also, they used the different elevations to create microclimates and grow different crops at different heights. There's even at least one site at which the incans used to selectively breed crops to be hardier by slowly increasing the height at which they could grow over generations. Literally an agricultural laboratory. its AWESOME. They even invented freeze-drying foods by storing long-term foods on the mountaintops! One of the few quechuan loan words in english is "jerky" from "ch'arki" which was partially made and preserved this way!!! I have a lot more info but ill keep this related to Zou: The way i see it, the buildings are inspired by the incan architecture because being on the back of a moving elephant is prone to tremors. They do NOT use chinampas in the same way that the aztec and mayan lake peoples would have, but rather have a kind of mixture of the mayan "basin" format to keep water and canals to spread said water. Since they can count on zunesha spraying his back every day, however, they have no need to preserve the wayer the same way mayan basins did, so its reversed! There are no terraces, but it is done in the form of a terrace farm, where water drains down zunesha's back into all the farmland from high elevation to low, however there are no terraces so its more like a reversed basin, with the convex shape combined with canals/aqueducts to help with irrigation. anyways YEAH!! i think its pretty cool and very intentional

Jaya is so loaded with stuff because the series was going to be shorter. As the series was extended, the information was more drip fed throughout the arcs.

I love Drawk's analysis. This is indeed not a story where the treasure is the friends you made along the way. And i love it even more because of the fact that "to get the treasure, you need to be the kind of person where the friends you made along the way, matter more [to you] than the treasure" These types of quotes are why I keep tuning into Mom Piece. I love this series, thank you for creating a space where we can learn just how deep one piece goes

New chapter drop AND mom piece upload? Sign me in!

"Zow" sounds like how Franky would pronounce it.

Oda isn't really big on biological connections but on emotional bonds so it makes sense that luffy and his dad who have not met since luffy was born have no real concern about each other.

Its so funny that i found the first episode of Mama Drawk on a flight months ago, and all these months later here we are ❤

RYUNOSUKE will never be forgotten

Where did Garfield get the cheese for his lasagna when the minks only have reptiles for livestock? This is the most important mystery in One Piece.

Mr Prince being a prince is a phenomenal reveal

Yes Kanjuro definitely used Momo’s dragon as his inspiration for Ryonosuke ❤😊

Ryunosuke was a Japanese writer active in the Taishō period in Japan. He is regarded as the "father of the Japanese short story", and Japan's premier literary award, the Akutagawa Prize, is named after him. He took his own life at the age of 35 through an overdose of barbital.

I heard "Pom-Pom" for Peckoms nickname, and immediately had Homestar Runner flashbacks.

"Raizo is safe" is definitely top 5 *DON* moments in the story, such a heart breaking reveal

The best part of this is how she talks about stuff and he draws.

She's so close to Whole Cake Island lol can't wait to hear what she has to say about Big Mom's antics

The Minx not revealing the Ninja even in the face of death is a Samurai Loyalty Trope

"Raizou is safe" is one of the big series moments for me. I was so fooled watching this in the anime. After feeling the fatigue of the Dressrosa anime adaptation I had put the series down for a while but this captured the wonder of One Piece all over for me again. 3 Moments I have fallen in love with the series - "Luffy Help Me" - Nami "I want to LIve" - Robin "Raizou is Safe" - the Minks

I like the idea that the 3 ancient weapons have 3 things to operate. A human, a creature, and a ship or a vehicle. And if you are up-to-date with the manga it totally make sense. For example: spoiler -shirahosi( poseidon) , the sea kings, and the ark. -momonuske, zunisha and the pluton. and what if pluton is not actually a ship but a vehicle like a chariot or a kago. -uranus, possibly the giant loki and a bird I guess I'm just making up these stuff but you get the point. Or what if uranus was the giant egg in Roger's ship?

As a Japanese person every time you say Zow my soul aches It’s pronounced Zoh because Zou means elephant It’s like purposely mispronouncing Elephant as Elep-hant Um you probably don’t mind though so carry on I guess

I liked franky’s cannon hair, i think most people, or at least myself hate the buzz cut he has right after time skip, his standard hair style reverts to his pompadour, like Ace Venture, but most game outfits and extra material media put him back to the Buzzed cut. His joshi braids on dressrosa’s early bit pre battle mode is good too

Omg I'm glad Mama made that connection that's exactly the feeling I had was that sense of discovery like in the old Indiana Jones movies, oh those were amazing, my favorite is Temple of Doom but of course it is, but Zou being as big as they were with the whale tree and Raizo and the Poneglyph and the alliance, Cat Viper is probably the best part though I love his prosthetic he gets, Ryonosuke is a G, he'll always be remembered!! 🥹

Imagine talking Nami outfits and not putting Water 7 with the tie and mini skirt in top 2 at least

Isn't there a theory that there are more enormous creatures like Zunesha hidden in the fog of the Florian Triangle? There was like one line about it from the narrator at the very end of Thriller Bark, with some giant silhouettes and eyes peering through the fog, and they haven't been referenced since. It would make sense since Shirahoshi can control all sea kings, that Momo could control all these enormous beasts, not just Zunesha

Just opened RU-vid and saw this. I am pumped! Next arc is my favorite

I also want to add that not only is Nekomamushi basically Garfield, he's dubbed by _SungWon Cho,_ better known as ProZD.

Theres a stone formation off of Iceland that looks exactly like Zunesha

She is incredible. She got the Zunesha - Momo/Wano -> Pluton!

Ive finally seen a few twitch videos and they are long and now i always appreciated the youtube editing but damn cricket you put in so much work. Seriously. If bon clay became a youtuber, you would be their first pick as editor. Bless you cricket

mamadrawk needs to listen to the nekomamushi song from the anime its so good

God I would love for Mama Drawk to do analysis on the Discworld series.

Bege's fruit is really good

This is kind of like a reverse Whiskey Peak. They climb to the top, maintain their trust and teamwork, the lying town deceives to their benefit, they stand atop a giant animal and not within it… A lot of Part 1 foreshadows Part 2, and you don’t appreciate that until you go through a reread like this.

39:06 Btw im so glad i watch these Vids since i wqs here live. its so nice to see what GETS EDITED in. W EDITOR!!!!!

This “friends we made along the way” conversation makes me want to see y’all watch Gokaiger.

For reasons that I wish I knew, the talk about Law replacing Cat Viper's hand made me think of the episode of Futurama where Robot Satan gave Fry robot hands.

the discord sounds driving me crazy just listing to this passively

I’m so happy I didn’t have a copyright strike for our ending song, it’s perfect! Effervescing Elephant!

A month late, but I think Dragon is invested in Robin a a symbol of surviving the governments unfair destruction as the face of Ohara.

You gotta have Mama Drawk check out Castle In The Sky

I have the same birthday as that alligator that tried to eat them!

Yall this was nice

There needs to be a snailsnail fruit. Also there are saltwater snails.

Don't worry the dragon drawing lives in our hearts as he made it to sniper island and is with Segoking.

Funny thing to think about : if law were to use it's power around zunisha. He could talk about the big elephant in the room

Really I always thought kizaru are looked like Adam Sandler

- We felt the feels for a drawing OF A DRAWING of a ficticious creature. It may be best to think about constructs like Ryunosuke like Mr. Meeseeks: born to serve a single purpose and wink out of existence, prolonged life would be torment - It's not accurate to say the Japanese think of blue as the color of newness instead of green; rather, traditionally Japanese hasn't distinguished between green and blue. Much as we consider Cyan and Lapis to both be shades of blue, blue and green are conflated in Japanese somewhat (they have a word for green specifically, midori, but it's relatively new, like our word for orange).

1:15:46 Now i finally know what the Opening Of Laverne and Shirley is talking bout! um Shamil Shamazel!!!!

23:09 Mama Drawk does not know her dinosaurs

My dude said wrestling heel and I marked.

So hyped for the future reads!

So I know mama drawk doesn’t know this but does her son know that Big Mom’s son survived? They gave him some of the lifespan souls that were collected as rent from the citizens to give him back what was stolen

when is drawk gonna do the reveal that mama knew everything all along? These prediction are wild

1:15:00 I've heard people pronounce that word a million ways. Since we're all about the literature here, it's should be pronounced "Sheh-Myel". It's based on a character from a book whose clumsy and gullible.

Like the confidence with which Drawk says Wano is four videos minimum

One reason you might need all four poniglyphs is that chord-nets might a be relitive to each island so you would need all 4 of them

SWEET I MISSED THIS STREAM I'M SO GLAD IT'S FINALLY UP

I wonder if Zunesha's legs were always that long or if it is part of their curse to be able to roam the seas.

ZOE it’s pronounced Zoe lmao love you guys great video 💙

mama keeps bringing up the Franky hair situation and my problem with it isn't the cool new forms he can put it in, its that the default that appears in all the promo and games and merch is the shaved head look, which I'm not a fan of at all.

If anyone else is looking for the song at the end it's called effervescing elephant apparently: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-smVYvnnqewA.html

The jack discussion also has another component after halfway through wano

I hope mama hears big moms laugh ngl

Aztecs also used a similar water irrigation system...

37:11 Why Bear? and Talk? Top tier Questions

When you finally get to Kaido and his son's backstory, play 4th Chamber by GZA. That sample from Shogun Assassins is his ideology

I don't know why but Inuarashi always felt like a scruff mcgruff reference to me

MY FAVORITE ARC IN THE ENTIRE MANGA. Yes, please! (I'm with Law and Zoro....the dragon drawing thingy wasn't sad.) Conversely: I Hate Whole Cake Arc. Start to finish, I Hate It. Personal reasons. It's an awesome arc and maybe one day I'll be able to read it without being angry. After some therapy.

Which is more Garfield: Cat Viper or Who's Who?

When she starts Wano she should be shown the Arc intro from the Anime. It’s a joy to watch.

Outro (funny)

I'm surprised she didn't catch some of the smaller details revealed in wano. But then again, neither did we.

Hi mama drawk, idk if this has been brought to your attention yet or if I missed it, but this is about Sabo telling Luffy that he hasnt changed. I was watching a OP reaction video and found myself reacting to Ace and Luffy's meeting in Alabasta, and Ace says the exact same thing.

Drawk saying Kaido is his favorite arc villain = based

You got lost in the sause on jacks tattoo and race when you already know he is a fishman

With the idea of the Klabautermann we can have Pluton the ship and the creature

Blessed be thy mom piece 💖

Wait, did y'all not talk about the Sanji and Bege part at all? Or did I miss it somehow?

Nami's German dress is amazing, my favorite by far, not that I think the others are bad, but I just love this look on her.

Dummy's who don't know one piece "luffys not political, one piece has no political alignment." Literally luffy: "I want all my friends to be free in their own countries, free from oppression, with as much food as they want"

Oh that Dragon.. Those drawings.. I wonder how will she will react when she found out why Jack was so sure that the ninja is on Zou.. 😮 And the Dragons that's coming! 😂 How many tears will drop when it's Wano? 😢 Will she like Momo in the future? ❤ And lastly will she be blown away by Momo back story? 🎉 Go go go Wano!

Justin Timberlake? Kizaru is obviously Adam Sandler.

btw the jiddisch term is Schlemihl, not Schemil. (l after the first h)

Alright, whole cake is next, and cant wait for her thoughts. Also, her killing her son isn’t the worst thing she did.

Schlemiel, schlemazzle, hasenpfeffer incorporated. Sorry. Okay, I'm not but… figured I had to pretend I was. Right anyway… One piece not political? What are these people watching?

I thought Noland could hear Nola

Probably the single thing Mama Drawk has been the most wrong about is defending seagulls. I'm not gonna say seagulls aren't *impressive* in a lot of ways, but that doesn't translate to them *not* being monstrous demon birds. Not even for anything they do to humans, look up what they do to baby seals and whales (actually DON'T, it's very messed up and graphic).

It's leviosaaaa

Woot! For the algorithm!

I wonder if Mama would like the Avatar TLA series🤔

Little thing on the Free Mason idea It would only work in English, since the original German word is "Freimaurer". "Maurer" can be translated as "bricklayer" or "mason", but those two words are not interchangeable in German. The Kozukis are masons, but not in the "Maurer"-sense. People who carve stone are called "Steinmetz" in German (Stone mason, Steinmetz). A "Maurer" lays bricks and builds walls and such. But I don't know which version is used in Japan. German words are almost als prevalent in Japan as English ones.
