Once again, Sawyer comes up with analysis that really brought out interesting points that none of the other reviewers did. I hope more people listened to Sawyer.
Yup i just mentioned that too, he hit on stuff with kizaru to have me like "hey im surprised i heard this point from sawyer first" this is why sawyer is goated
*2 possibilities I see for Kuma:* 1. He is trying to reach Vivi, who is above Egghead, to pass on the Paw Paw fruit as she's the rightful owner to Lili's fruit. 2. He is trying to put his memory bubbles to the entire world, somehow through punk records synchronisation, and let the whole world revolt against the WG
Sup kingjay, kuma was very close to vivi during the reverie flashback from sabos pov so i dont think its option 1, option 2 sounds fire tho, imagine little kuma bubbles spreading over the world and going into ppls bodies with info from punk records
I always thought he was going to Egghead...Either possibility you presented imply the destination is Egghead. I agree more with the second possibility and I also think Kuma might sacrifice himself to slap the Sunny into Elbaf...Obviously there is also the possibility Egghead has a self destruct mechanism, so yes, the Straw Hats would need a way to safely get away from the island and pass through the fleet. I'll say this about the incident at Egghead: it will be a sum of several minor incidents and it will be unprecedented and at the same level as God Valley. Akainu even said Kuma attacking Pangea Castle alone was an unprecedented incident...
I think this is a good opportunity for Luffy to meet Dragon soon because of the "inherited will" way back in Chapter 100. I also have a feeling that Chapter 1094 will be huge because of Chapters 94, 194, and 491!
Maybe the drums of liberation only activate in near death experiences which is why the giant robot only awakened now. Luffy mentioned that he nearly died going through the barrier twice. In contrary, when fighting Lucci, he was not struggling at all.
I think the first activation of the drums of liberation is triggered by death with a certain level of haki attained and then every activation afterwards is triggered by feeling the most alive cuz death cant be the trigger everytime as luffy went into gear 5 agaisnt lucci right away when he went to clash with him or maybe luffys fight lucci is purely a plot device for vegapunk and it doesn't count in how gear 5 works at all
Where did Luffy v Lucci take place? My sense of direction is screwy but I feel like people are overthinking it? Maybe the robot didn’t awake simply because it wasn’t close enough to hear it?
You by far have the best chapter reviews. The amount of depth in each review really shows how much research goes into these. Your perspective and ability to articulate your thoughts so clearly is also top notch. You’re doing a great job dude
@15:10 maybe Vegapunk is going to reveal how devil fruits are fed to objects- they need to escape the Marine fleet quickly... so Vegapunk needs to speed up the Thousand Sunny, for his own sake. They made a point to have Franky explain that they can make the ship fly for a whole mile, and Vegapunk was impressed. But what if it could be... better? The Thousand Sunny could theoretically be fed the Paw Paw fruit by Vegapunk himself, and literally push itself from Island to Island, Coup de Paw. Edit: Literally Fast Travel Unlocked for the final saga of the story. It could even be written so that the skills of Nami as a Navigator, Jinbei as the ultimate helmsman, Franky's ultimate ship, and even Usopp for aiming the trajectory could be necessary to make these kinds of jumps, to show that no other crew would be able to manage it. Edit 2: ah fuck, I just remembered literally the important downside to devil fruits.... people who eat them can't swim. Does that mean a ship that ate them can't float? Or maybe it would be immune to that downside since it's naturally buoyant and doesn't need strength to float. Or maybe they can't use the Paw Paw unless they Coup de Burst first to stop touching the water, so it's less like a teleport and more like a double jump, air dash. ....or maybe they'll just feed something else the Paw Paw fruit, like a cannon or something.
This is a really cool idea, but I think so far all the examples of feeding a devil fruit to an object have only been zoan devil fruits? Otherwise the object wouldn't have any personality or living will to activate the ability with
Of course. Most of the Marines don't even understand the World Government or how it works, they're just doing their jobs. Once they find out about Imu it's revolution time.
@@ezpz6479Even he doesn't seem totally on board with how the marines do things. Thats why he wanted to become fleet admiral and yet is seeing that he still doesn't have total control.
It‘s such an irony that Akainu said to Kuma „You‘re just a damned puppet now“ although Akainu and also Kizaru are technically the same, obeying to the celestial dragons.
That Akainu words is deep. It could be said that to himself. It could be Dragon was his friend and left fleet admiral position because no matter how high you rank in navy, you are nothing but just celestial dragon puppet
My first time watching your videos, you make some of the best connections I’ve ever seen. Thank you for shedding light on the Oda breaks as well, I’m praying for his health to improve. You’ve earned yourself a new subscriber!
I'd be happy to see Vivi get Kuma's fruit as a way to justify her rejoining the crew, but I honestly think it would be cooler if the Thousand Sunny got it instead. Here are the reasons why: - It would match the theme of the ship (considering the lion figurehead) - The Straw Hat's ship having fast travel would be mighty convenient for the story. - Vegapunk, the person who discovered inanimate objects could 'eat' devil fruit is currently with the crew. - While only Zoan fruits have been 'eaten' by inanimate objects in the story so far, I don't think it's been explicitly stated Paramecia or Logia fruit can't be. It could be the case that devil fruit users need to have a will of their own after the consumption of the fruit, which would be possible for a ship with a Klabautermann. - It would make the Sunny more important within the story (I feel like it hasn't really been notable when compared to the Going Merry). - It would give the Straw Hat's a quick way to Elbaf.
Why the hell would the ship get Kuma's fruit. That's ridiculous, the ship is supposed to sail on water. How can it do that if it's a devil fruit Eater 😅
@@gothgrrl8711 I don’t think so, but I could be wrong. Brook has eaten a devil fruit but is able to run on water so I figured the Sunny floating on top of water should also be fine :/
I've read an interesting comment on reddit regarding Kuma: What if the reason why Bonnie was so happy is because she found out, that her Fathers soul is no longer in Kumas body but instead it got replaced with the soul of the ancient robot which climbed to Mariejoa 200 years ago. Maybe the soul reacted to Joyboy and therefore started climbing the redline. And now that Luffy is close to the ancient giant the drums of liberation "refueled" the robot, which we will soon find out was implanted with Kumas Soul
I really appreciate Sawyer pointing out that the breaks Oda has been taking lately is also because of health reason. I was so pissed when twitter folks acted so entitled whenever we had chapter breaks lately, because Oda deserves rest more than anyone, like I know we haven't seen the man's face in forever but that doesn't mean he doesn't age yknow. Aside from his eye surgery issue, his health in general, there's also his age factor. He's nearing the age where everyone else would've toned down their works, instead he can't, because it's literally the last final saga and he couldn't let the quality drop. I wish every One Piece fans can take the time to understand this because this is extremely important. I'd rather One Piece chapters become biweekly if it means more time for Oda to take proper rest.
After all this years, Sawyer you are the only well known and serious One Piece story/theory commentator. You always make interesting points, and that's shows just how much immersed you are in the story. The great majority of other YTers just throw a video fast, they shout and act like children, just for views and subs. You are the only one I'm subscribed, and the only one I will remain a sub until we reach the finale.
Certainly Kizaru is not aware of the true nature of Luffy’s fruit. Whatever he knows from Sengoku may cause confusion by comparisons but it should not be outright knowledge for anyone that the fruit isn’t the Gomu Gomu.
It should be for kizaru. He just took a whole cruise ride to egg head, if the Elder didn't tell him about the Nika fruit then they deserve every L coming their way
Ngl I really miss Sawyer's proper manga chapter reviews, I didn't care when they came out, it doesn't feel like a chapter is complete without his review, but I totally understand why he's not doing them anymore. I wish unofficial release was not out that much earlier.
I gotta say that the breaks you brought up are very valid and it kinda took a little bit of the annoyance I've been having for the repetitive breaks into perspective. Thanks I needed to hear that. Hope Oda recovers well. Cheers Sawyer
I feel like Vivi is gonna rejoin the straw hat and get the paw paw fruit since I feel like she the only real new member that can join without needed to much development. If she get the paw paw fruit her power will go up and well as I see a lot of people who don't belive she would be a member saying it because she is too weak.
@@indradiana Vivi cannot become the Queen of Alabasta as she puts her people in danger since the world government is after her, so her only option is to sail with the straw hats. By the end of the series when the straw hats beat the world government, I feel like the straw hats will disband, meaning she can become Queen of Alabasta while for the final sage she stay with the straw hats as a permanent member.
I think this is my favorite video on this channel and I really hope to see more videos on this channel that mentions or even better full videos explaining everything about my three most favorite races in the OnePiece series being that of Giants and the Fishmen / Merfolk and the combination of the two races known as the Wotans please
Yeah i was also thinking the same thing, because if the giant robot was awakened due to gear 5 then it should have awakened during luffy vs lucci fight.
8:21 This is a great point that nobody is talking about, good job there. KIzaru didn't even seem too surprised to see Luffy's big form like everyone else was.
The fight over Egghead isl.: The Yellow Monkey vs The Monkey of NIka When it comes to the quality of recent of chapters, I believe that these were drawn before Oda's eye surgery? Its because one of Oda's assistants or editors says that Oda is 5 chapters ahead of schedule?
Given the closeness of Sakazuki & Dragon in the past and considering both Hibari & Sakazuki speak with Hiroshima accents which are likened to the US accent I believe that Sakazuki's mentor is the elusive Bogard whom is based off famed American actor Humphrey Bogart.
Thats a interesting theory, no wonder bogard is in the background so much, mans power level is too op to utter a word But in all seriousness kong was probaly akainu's mentor, he may have had a bias in recommending akainu being the next fleet admiral
Fire analysis sawyer, u made points other reviewers overlooked, i wouldnt put too much stocks into gohdroger's end of one piece theories as hes vauge when reiterating popular theories that have a high chance of being true but very specific when detailing his headcannon. I got a sneaky feeling that lilith will inheirit the paw paw fruit as her name and kuma got biblical things in common and her having the bubble gun might be forshadowing it too as nami no sanji now has the bubble gun
A Straw Hat inheriting the Paw Paw fruit means the 1000 Sunny will have the ultimate Coup de Burst, truly the flying ship of Dreams. This is one of the most exciting theories I've heard in a while. Cheers Sawyer.
If kizaru was trained by sengoku, and kuzan was trained by garp, it begs the question of who trained akainu, as it feels like we should know of them. My bet is definitely on Kong. Edit: also love the theory about luffy restarting his heart there, hadn't considered that but it makes alot of sense
At least in the aineme luffy stats that his heart stopped during his fight with kaido, I can't remember in the manga and would have to go back and re read it, so it's definitely something to do with a near death or actual death to awaken the true powers of the hito hito no mi, which is why I think during the fight with luchi nothing happened but with kizaru it affected the iron giant, because luchi is not a threat but kizaru is
Especially since Vivi needs to hide. There is no way she is going back to Alabasta. The strawhats is the only safe choice in my mind and she is around the corner.
Thank you! I’ve been saying Kizaru is fighting with a handicap considering how destructive his powers are, can’t exactly risk destroying things his boss told him not too That being said I still think Luffy overcomes him, but it’s a helluva a lot closer than people think
your videos are one of the rarest where I have to watch it without skipping it. Thank you for your content. Btw on an sbs some one asked once Eiichiro Oda about the paw paw fruit being in straw hats crew is getting more logical now after sakazuki vs. bear.
You do good reviews man. This week had a lot of thought put into forming many complications that will factor into this upcoming conflicts. Powerscalers good luck lmao
I agree with the second theory, the drums of liberation did not appear with Lucci, maybe because Luffy wasn't pushed to his limits with him. I think Gear 5 and the drums are related but not necessarily synonymous. There's a lot about this transformation that we still don't understand
A counterpoint to Luffy reactivated the iron giant: What if the robot’s memories got switched with Kuma’s? We know for a fact that VP can extract memories but what if he can put it into something? Luffy also told the Iron Giant to move in 1066 and at the end of 1067 Kuma was starting to move. Only when Bonny got hurt did it reactivate.
agreed, and i hope the theory of Carrot and Yamato joining the crew to be the final crew of the straw hats (the sunny 13, see the youtuber "Gabiru D. Rat"'s theory about the final straw hat crew, some points get disproven in that video and he revises points as things go along and adds other theories that connect to it as it goes along too, his stuff sounds crazy but it makes sense, he is an underrated theory youtuber so seeing at least one of his theories be true would make me and him extremely happy)
It seems in OP, There is a close connection between the shadow and the soul, and Kuma revolting maybe on the lines as Cindry revolting in thriller bark
The Straw Hats have abilities which make up 1-10 in Japanese numerals; Luffy - Go-mu (5-6) Chopper - Hi-to (1-10) Robin - Ha-na (8-7) Brook - Yo-mi (4-3) Kuma (Vivi?) - Ni-kyu (2-9) I think someone will definitely inherit the Paw-Paw fruit, and with Vivi stating the next time she sees them she will be a crew mate, and with her ancestors being tied into this, it will be her!!!!
I mean, the theory about kuma dying and someone getting his fruit, that theory i heard years ago. A lot of people have thought that might be the case and it makes sense judging from the story. Guessing luffy might have some connection to the ancient robot is not that difficult to guess, especially not after his gear 5 and joyboy reveal. If that guy had made those theories before wano or at least before gear 5/ joyboy reveal, it would have been impressive, but he didn't. Anyway, great video!
I just realised that if Bonney is lying about her age then she can’t be Katarina. Katarina can only copy someone but not their devil fruit so if she pretended to be Bonny she’d show her actual age and not the age Bonney has been pretending to be.
Is this the case though? Isn't Devon just a shape-shifter? As in she can just adopt the appearance of anyone, I don't think it matters what they really look like. Like theoretically couldn't she just copy gear 4 luffy's appearance even though that's not his base form. Even Bon Clays fruit could copy Bonneys face from whatever her appearance is at the time he touched her face. She adopted Absolams appearance even though he was dead at the time.
@@SolersRobur Luffy requires his devil fruit and haki to go into gear 4. If Katarina tried to copy that she’d probably just pop from the air in her muscle. Someone who’s dead would be frozen in time to when she had copied them, but copying a fruit ability seems impossible.
@@awesomeavis7861 but she's not copying Luffy's abilities though, she doesn't need haki or to be inflated to adopt the form, she just decides she's gonna have black colouring all over her body to mimic the visual. Like granted we don't know anything about the conditions for use, but the nine-tailed fox/kisune legend is just that they're shapeshifters - e.g. it's very likely not based in 'i touch this person & my appearance changes into them 1-for-1. Like Kanjuro's clone/drawing off himself, he's freely able to make the clone as similar or different to the real version as he likes just based on his choosing.
About the giant theory, when zunisha recognized joyboy, Luffy wasn't in giant form. But if you look at the panels of Zunisha responding and iron robot awakening, you can see the sound cues of drums. So I'm assuming there is a particular rhythm at which luffys heartbeat or his body resonates which the ancient beings recognize. Some kinda anime version of string theory.
Thanks your theory on Oda sensi’s breaks, sometimes we just want what we want now but there are other more important things than our need for instant gratification the need for Oda to take care of himself
The goat of all review. Sawyer. I love you ..... Ok now i want to just put my imput. Lunffy getting bigger or, plot twitst have you noticed. Luffy being gear 5 has always lead to new revelations. With this in mind i feel sun god nika each time needs more panels to reveal more. As i feel. Thr is lot to nika. After all luffy is oda's fav
The rumor I've heard about Kuma is that there are height limitations to his fruit. So he can propel someone basically along the ground/ocean but not vertically, and the Red Line is a tall wall that's 90 degrees with the ocean, hence why he slammed in to the side of it and then climbed up. He had to get to the top before he could use his ability again to get to the New World. He's probably trying to make his way to either Bonney or the Straw Hats, but as for why I don't know. I do think that what's going to happen with his fruit is that, since Vegapunk is the pioneer of giving devil fruit powers to inanimate objects, he's going to give it to the Thousand Sunny itself. In regards to the giant robot not powering on right away, with the rumor that ancient technology was actually powered by Joyboy himself somehow, that it needed Luffy to be in Gear 5 for a while so that it could charge back up.
Sunny can't use df even if vp feeds it and sunny will sink underwater Are u guys really dumb sunny is not getting df and it's parmecia type not zoan so it be useless 100% it's Vivi who will get the devil fruit
Man I didn’t know you were still around Sawyer … I used to watch all your naruto vids back in high school… and ironically I just got into one piece soo we meet again lol
I think it's more apt to say, "Awakened fruit users are unaffected by the area effects of other awakened fruit users." I think that awakened devil fruit users CAN be affected, but only through direct contact, unlike anyone else. One important question I've always had. "Was Kaido's devil fruit awakened?" Didn't seem like it to me, but then again, he did have an extra hybrid form. I also think that having a strong will would be enough not to be directly affected. Kaido didn't have a strong will when he was grabbed. He was about to swallow another fake win, and got caught completely off guard. Once he collected himself he was normal in appearance, and that rule only broke whenever Luffy actually grabbed him.
I’m predicting Usopp gets Kumas devil fruit; And that Skypia’s the blueprint; That the dials we’re a precursor for Usopp eventually getting Kumas devil fruit powers; That Kuma will die on Egghead and Usopp will eat Kumas devil fruit on Elbaf;
No, part of Usopp’s charm and his character is that he doesn’t have a crazy DF power, Usopp’s appeal is that he’s just a regular guy in this crazy world
The end of the series and the events that will lead to it can be deduced by the inspiration: 1) The "Void Century" is based on the Black Legend. 2) The "Ancient Kingdom" is based on the Hispanic Empire. 3) The "World Government" is based on the anglo-saxon hegemony. Are are other inspirations related to the Hispanic Empire :^3
Imagine zorro taking kama fruit... They have connection form thriller bark...lol But for zorro to send someone to a completely different location than intended... 😂😂😂
12:07 u remember when luffy restarted his heart he kinda acted like it was a different beat maybe that’s why it didn’t active the first time wasn’t the right heart beat
