@@ShutUpDenny It's also almost indestructible, if a devil fruit user is touching it, they wouldn't be able to muster strong enough haki to break the sea prism stone. (exceptions apply, I'm sure someone like Kaido could probably do it)
Caribou's full story after Fishman Island is shown on one of the many manga cover stories, which is a way for Oda to draw fun scenarios without filling out the weekly 15 main pages. Starting back in East Blue, after Buggy's defeat, these cover stories are a way for Oda to show events that'll impact the main story later on, or to check what previous characters are up to after their departure from the regular pages.
I disagree with your take on the Ashura Doji subplot. The Ashura Doji subplot was to show the differences in how the 20 years and the decisions that were made 20 years ago have affected the akazaya 9. Ashura Doji was one of the characters unfortunately not time travelled, and has witnessed the increasingly absolute state of hopelessness in wano gradually making him more jaded as he was fighting head-on towards orochi and kaidos forces all this time unlike some of the other akazaya. I think this subplot was a very interesting look into a lens of realism, giving depth to the loyalty of the akazaya. Kinemon couldn't just ignore and brush away the fact that they have been gone for 20 years and expect everyone to have the same fiery will and confidence to take down orochi and kaido.
I wonder if he'll ever hold a supreme grade that isn't ranked up via kokuto I was so excited that he would take shodai kitetsu since fisman island arc (god that was like my highschool, time flies) but no he kept sandai kitetsu, I was also given false hope when nidai kitetsu is introduced
@@sbjoka56 my prediction is enma and wado ichimonji turned into kokuto and became supreme grade, sandai kitetsu exchanged with shodai kitetsu once it got revealed or something so like 2 kokuto and 1 normal sword his endgame is the greatest swordsman, having 3 supreme grades is a must
I think "The Twin Fire Birds mating under the Waning Crescent Moon above the curled Habu Pit Viper" is maybe my favorite One Piece joke I just love how everyone other than our crew immediately completely understands the message
Moria living was actually not a false death flag, when Domflamingo was discussing it with the navy dude after he said that he disappeared into a shadow (so likely did the body swap with his own shadow to get away) but that he wasn't worth worrying over. That was when the navy guy tried to browbeat him and Domflamingo gave his you think I care I will burn you all if it is more convenient line. It was a little hidden of a thing but there that he wasn't killed and escaped.
He didn't body swapped he was saved by absalom since he said he was disappeared and we see here him finding absalom means he knew he was coming and other reason is you can see his shadow being there when being attacked
6 years Denny. 6 whole years in our time Zoro and Sanji were separated. We waited 6 years to see them together. 6 years it was. Twas a night woven of 6 moons or whatever. 6. Years.
What king hide behind his mask is as hot as the fire around the back of his neck and i mean it he could be a protagonist of romance novel and no one would complain
We already knew Doflamingo didn't kill Moria, when he was talking to that CP0 member he was like "hey, he just vanished right when I was going to kill him, weird lol". It's implied that Absalom helped him escape by turning him invisible.
Quick note about Asura Doji. He didn't simply change his mind to help with the raid. Kinemon just came to him, taking his participation for granted, without understanding or appreciating the suffering that Wano had been put through over the last 20 years. It's only after Kinemon sees the execution of an old friend and the devastating effects of Orochi's rule that he breaks down and begs Asura Doji for help.
Sanji is "Stealth black" cuz of his lack of ability as a child. His father made it for him with his weakness in mind. Hes not yellow cuz Judge is yellow.
Oda confirms what happened with Onimaru (the sword fox/monk). It ate the Human Human devil fruit model Onyudo (Big Monk). Also, even though where you are at they haven't explicitly told you yet, but I find it amusing that you didn't lump Kaido under the mythical zoan devil fruits category.
about whether enma is a cursed sword, there's no mention about it so far the confirmed cursed swords are: shodai kitetsu nidai kitetsu sandai kitetsu kikoku (law's sword, mentioned in SBS vol.71) and one from a movie I forgot which one (though you can technically ignore this since it's not canon?)
To me, Moriah possibly teaming up with Blackbeard sounds like it could mean that he could bring back Whitebeard and Ace as Shadow Zombies later on and that would be so scary to see Luffy react to. Mud Boy was given a good Cover Story in the Manga. After Fishman Island, he was rescued by this old lady who thought he was her Grandson cuz they looked alike. So he goes along and takes advantage of her kindness, and just as he was about to rob her and leave... The village was attacked and he ends up Saving them cuz the old lady was so kind and he was guilty. It then turns out that She knew all along that he wasn't her Grandson, since he was a Revolutionary Soldier and died in Battle. He's still a creep but i genuinely feel he isn't a big threat. But You know how Oda be.
Aside from Marco, Orochi, and Devan, we do know of at least two other mythic devil fruits. Former Fleet Admiral Sengoku ate the Hito-Hito (human-human) fruit Mythic variant Buddah, and Kaido ate the Uo-Uo (fish-fish) fruit Mythic variant Azure Dragon. But yeah, Mythical Zoans are going to be somewhat the new hotness, though they are hardly insurmountable. Hell, even the lowly paramecia can become extraordinarily powerful, especially if awakened.
@@jeffreymeehan3567 No one knows the fruits name nor confirmed it is a mythical type yet at this point. It is revealed later during roof piece. And it also a cool reveal for it to be a "Fish fish" fruit instead of dragon-dragon fruit. And you just spoiled that.

I'm all done with Wano now. I haven't read anything afterwards until I finish up my last script on Wano which should be any day now. So probably next Sunday I'm a week to week kinda guy
seastone doesn't nullify haki. in chapter 400 fukurou states that seastone is as hard as diamonds so breaking out of it would just be really difficult even with haki
I thought that Kiku's introduction as a trans woman was awesome. Oda does a really good job of making it feel natural. I didn't think it was anti-climactic, I love that she's a normal trans woman, in the end we're just that, normal human beings. ♥
I agree, especially with oda's hit and miss record with representing members of the LGBT community. Im glad we got a rep thats just "oh yeah im trans" and then the story moves on.
It definitely feels natural and I have no issue with it, my commentary was moreso on how it was teased as this mystery since Act 1 and then paid off all the way at the end of Act 2 so I assumed there would be more to it than a simple statement of fact based on how the narrative has historically dealt with gender
Spoiler. The story behind the Smiles being fed to those villagers is one of the saddest things I have ever heard... Imagine, not being able to mourn and cry at the sight of your own fathers death?
You just don't know how bad Smile fruit effects will get. There is no positive reason to eat those bootleg Ar Jerdon shoes artificial devil fruits. In the end you lose your ability to swim, you will either be stuck smiling for the rest of your life or a dog grows out of your belly button. How Kaido expects to conquer the world with these mistakes of Goda, I will never know.
I’m curious what would have happened if zoro did successfully kill orochi I think there wouldn’t be that big of a difference between killing him know then later. Spoilers… The guy that defended orochi from zoro’s attack was Odins attendant and ally from the beginning and hated him like all the other allies in wano, so just bone his expository ass leaving only kaido to deal with.
The Kidd pirates was going after the Red Haired pirates, so it is safe to assumed that the Red Haired pirates gave them a beating and took off Kidd’s arm because of his own ego, bro, not his son or are you joking🤔🤣😂
Kiku being a man was revealed from the get go, for japanese readers: he introduced himself with the term "Sesha" which was only used in ancient time by male samurai when they presented themself. The Fox that posed as the monk bears a striking resemblance, both in appearance and with ability, with Katarina Devon's new Devil Fruit; that implies that every mystical Zoan is based on a creature that does exist, or at least existed at some point in time in the world!
@@ghulamfalah Exactly: because of Little Garden we know dinosaurs exist/have existed in the One Piece world, and with this we have seen an actual mythical being in present time.
Oh that is an interesting tidbit. And also good point about the fox. At this point I wouldn't put any creature out of the realm of possibility to exist in this series
Important plot points happening offscreen became a regular fixture in this act, probably one of my least favorite aspects of Wano. Just strange decision making when it comes to what stuff to show and what to offscreen
That did happen somewhat with Ace between PEL and Amazon Lily. I don't mind it so much now, but if it continues to be a trend beyond Wano I can see it getting annoying
Yeah, I agree with you with this Seastones Conundrum... but the answer is Luffy a Devil Fruit makes him kinda drawn out. Maybe Oda will make an excuse in The SBS part of the manga.
I guess that makes sense. I do wonder what the plan would've been for a non devil fruit eater then, since in theory there would be no way to prevent the use of haki
I know it's a joke, But imagine reading Whole cake island and then calling out Sanji for having an inferiority complex. Yes. Yeah, No shit. Did you skip the backstory?
