Post Enies Lobby Reaction Vlog - All My One Piece Theories Were Wrong :-( 

"All My One Piece Theories Were Wrong :-(" now you're a real one piece fan

Okay, just gonna say this: the whole Sanji bounty thing was just a joke. The head marine asks the subordinate "was the cap on?" and the guys says "no..." like it was actually on but he didn't wanna embarrass himself haha

A Devil Fruit that lets you revive after death? Now that's just crazy talk, yohoho

I love that even though Zoro is the one to say, "If the first words out of Usopp's mouth aren't an apology, he's not coming back on the crew", HE ALSO pretends not to hear Usopp until that apology happens. Zoro wants Usopp back on the ship just as much as anyone else. ❤

About Sanji's bounty image, you should reread that section, because that was definitely a joke. The cameraman really did forget to take the cap off.

Small detail on the Usopp rejoining scene. Luffy extends his arm but doesn't grab him. Usopp has to make the choice to grab Luffy rejoin and accept the choices the captain makes. Minor detail but important for character development

I think my favorite part of watching these is when he says that he is so excited to learn about something acting like it’s gonna come soon I just go ‘hey me too!’

29:10 The narrator has an omniscient, out of time view of the story. That's the driving force behind many theories about who the narrator is. One of the most prevalent, because of his character as a storyteller, is that's it's Usopp telling the story to his and Kaya's kids, or even grandkids

One small detail that I like to point out - when Usopp left Syrup Village, there's no way on earth he'd have jumped down dozens of metres unless it was a life or death situation. When he was trying to talk his way back onto the ship, he jumped down that far to get to the scrap heap Sunny was setting sail from without even registering it as a concern. Usopp may not be as brave as the rest of the crew, but he's grown notably stronger.

When Whitebeard and Shanks were first shown face to face, Whitebeard said something very interesting. I'm sure Oda wouldn't keep us in suspense about what that could mean for well over a decade though, right?

About the ship's name, Thousand Sunny is correct (to the point that it's literally just the direct English words pronounced in Japanese), but the stuff about 'Going Merry' vs 'Merry-go' is just a quirk in the translating process. The "-go" is a suffix that gets attached to the names of ships (among many other assorted meanings) so the full name of the ship would be "Going Merry-go" so calling it "Merry-go" is simply shortening the name because it's faster to say, the English equivalent being calling her "The Merry" or just simply "Merry". The Thousand Sunny's full name would be "Thousand Sunny-go" so it'll get shortened to "Sunny-go" with the English equivalent "The Sunny/"Sunny". The "-go" has always been there, it's just not in the English version because it's not something the English language does, so it gets left out.

The best way to explain Haki at this point, without spoilers would be simply to explain the Kanji. The Kanji used for Haki in the manga is 覇気. It is made up of two Kanji: 覇 ("Ha") meaning Supreme (among other things, but Supreme is what we want here,) and 気 ("Ki" meaning Ki, Chi, energy created by the mind, body, and spirit or will. Thus Haki is the "supreme ki" or in better One Piece terms, the Supreme Will.

I don't know how Oda does it but (and you'll notice that in the future too) every time he dumps a tone of information on you, you end up with even more questions than before. You are satisfied, confused, and want more at the same time.

If you noticed during the usopp rejoining the crew scene.. zoro said “he can only come back if the first thing outta his mouth is an apology” and when usopp was saying that other stuff first zoro and luffy pretended like they couldn’t hear him so that when he did finally apologize they could count it as “the first thing outta his mouth” lol

when you want to say things about things but don't wanna spoil things so you just enjoy the things being said about things

16:55 No, that was the problem, he forgot to remove the cap, and apparently, since he was asked that question, it's happened more than once. As a fun fact, since this doesn't play any role whatsoever in the story, it's later revealed on an SBS that the photographer was fired from the Marine after that, and ended up working for the newspaper

I am not sure if you catch that or not, but Shanks and Buggy were on Roger's ship. So both of them have literally seen the tops and bottom of the worlds. Buggy had way more experience of the world than we thought

Going Merry and Thousand Sunny are the correct names. In Japanese, you can hear them say, "Goingu Meri-go", "Meri-go", and later "Sanni-go" so I believe "-go" is just an honorific for ships

I think you misinterpreted the gag about the camera lens, it was supposed to hint at that yeah he forgot it on when trying to take Sanji's photo and thus had to make a drawing lol

I'm loving your way of reviewing! Coming back to us every few chapters is not only unique, but also allows us to know how you feel, and see the rolercoaster of emotions that you're going through almost live. keep it up

Maybe you correct this later in the video but i feel i should mention that i think you read the part about Sanjis wanted poster wrong. The cameraman did in fact just leave the cap on when taking his photo.

The next arc is a nice reprieve before going full throttle for the next 3. Can't wait to see your reaction.

Cool that you noticed the similarities of Haki and Mantra from Skypeia immediately. You'll eventually get the explanation :)

I think that was the first time Dadan's mentioned so you're not forgetting anything.

Oda is really good at making a world that things happen even when the straw hats or even our perspective isn't focused on it. Ace v Blackbird is certainly a trigger for things to come. Keep an eye on background information that will be dripped fed almost like throwaway lines.

My guy, the worldbuilding youre about to experience in the next 700 chapters will blow your mind. You have seen some amazing stuff and probably one of the greatest arc/saga overall (water7) but there is so much good stuff coming up. I really love the way youre reviewing each arc so detailed while really thinking about everything shown or mentioned in depth. Most people would do this type of analyzing on their second or third read. I cant wait for you to experience the highs of these coming adventures. One piece is the greatest fiction ever created, spread the word with your amazing content

One of the things I love about following someone's One Piece journey are the theories they come up with. One of the charms of the series is being able to take the info that Oda has given thus far and try to make sense of what you think is coming next. It's a lot of fun! Almost anything can go as long as you're using the breadcrumbs Oda is leaving behind and it stays within the realm of "One Piece logic." So keep on with the theories, you haven't given anything that someone, somewhere hasn't already thought of at one point or another during the series. 😂

I don't know if you've picked up on this detail yet, but Robin doesn't address any of the crew by name prior to her rescue. She had always addressed them by their position like, Captain, Doctor, Navigator, Cook, etc. Since then, she does call them by name.

he didnt say "no", he said it like "No..." knowing full well he did have it on xD Luffy and Usopp's reunion makes me cry everytime. You can see even Zoro was happy to have his lil Bro back.

It's always fun to see how right the reviewers theory and also how wrong they were at the same time.

Oda always makes sure to put lots of world building in after major arcs. It's one of the best bits.

"Please just give me answers [about Shanks], not more questions!" Hahahaha! *breathe in* HAHAHAHAHA! That's a good one.

When I heard your theory about Roger I was like “*evil laugh* Ohhh, just you wait!” Love your reaction! It’s like I reread One Piece with you)) I feel all this emotions again and I’m so excited ❤

It’s a good day when I get a notif that Merphy uploaded a One Piece related video and then DTM follows it up with Post-Enies a few hours later. Can’t wait for your reaction to Thriller Bark. It’s a comedy arc and always makes me laugh 😅

I agree Going Merry has a better ring to it, but I think you'll come to appreciate Sunny's name more with time. At the very least the ship names are very intentional by Oda.

"Shanks is just more mysterious everytime he's on the page and that's great but it's like...please give me more answers, not just more questions." You've managed to perfectly capture my feelings on one of my most favorite characters in the show. Also! Now that you've finished Post-Enis I can bring up a theory I formed back then. You pointed it out but it's REALLY WEIRD that chapter 441 ends with this sort of 4th wall breaking narration. We got it in the beginning of One Piece but haven't really seen it in the 400+ chapters since then. It could have just been a flair for the dramatics by Oda - but I think it's something much bigger. A key component of the story of One Piece is the story of Roger. It doesn't matter the medium - manga, anime, live action they all have a narrator telling us about how this man plunged us into the Grand Age of Piracy. That's so common a story theme that one would never question a story starting that way. But having a narrator show up AGAIN makes it really seem like there is some 3rd party telling this tale. The perfect way to bookend a story that starts with Roger is by revealing this was all just a tale to a new group of adventurers about a Pirate King named Luffy. So, I think we're going to end with an old Nico Robin in a new "Ohara" teaching history to a group of kids from her log books about her journey with the Pirate King. We're gonna end on some kid asking what Luffy did with the One Piece or what ever happened to him or something and Robin being herself gives the perfect non-answer. But then maybe we pan to several more volumes of logs she's written and in that way we're left with the feeling that the journey for them didn't end even if the story we know did.

The next arc is one of my favorites. I just had so much fun with it: comedy, suspense, mystery and drama, all wrapped the next arc in its own little package.

You'll find out who Garp's friend is in about 3-4 hundred chapters. :))))) In fact, all the questions you had in this video will be answered in 7-8 hundred chapters. MUHAHAHAHA

Drip of sweat is just showing shock and bewilderment (in most mangas, it's a universal thing, same as a little cross like thing to show anger), don't read into it too much. It's just a quirk of a medium in this instance. Same with Sanji. The photographer just didn't took the cap off (basically he is not the sharpest tool in the shed and didn't want to get fired). Tbh I thought it was quite clear that photographer was at fault when I read that part. The best part was Sanji's and Chopper's reactions, I recommend watching the episode in the anime. It was hilarious.

as always an awesome recap and i still love hearing the theories you come up with. brings such a fresh take to the story and i get secondhand joy from it. i really loved post enies lobby 👏

For me personally, about how you have structured your videos, the first couple of seconds when you come back from reading is my favorite part, the immediate facial expression tells me how much you loved or disliked what you just read. and it's such a visceral moment! thanks for making this channel honestly, you really have a way of digging deeper about the manga :D

Reliving this story through you has been a highlight for me everytime you post man keep it up

Luffy sleep eating is a running gag that started in drum island where luffy was depressed that he missed a bunch of meals becasue he was sleeping, then in alabastaa he was able to calculate how many meals he missed because of sleeping really quickly. then in skypia he talks about a way not to miss meals when he sleeping and then finally post enies lobby where he actually eating in his sleep.

You will be delighted with the speculation you made now in future arcs

what a great review, keep up the good work. I am really interested what youre gonna think about the next arc

Lol what a way to get spoiled. Just when you were about to get out of the woods. Being impatient is something 😂

I’ve been waiting for these reveals! Your theories are always fun

I’ve been excited about this post! Watching it now ❤

I've been waiting for this really love following your journey and hope you keep enjoying

"all my theories were wrong" Yes! And that's okay! We've all been there buddy

I enjoy your enthusiasm for the story, and your insight too. Great stuff

I love these so much!! Your passion for one piece melts my heart ❤️ tytyty

Awww man. I’m so hiped for you!!!

Absolutely love following your journey and hearing your theories, no matter if they're accurate or not!!

I look forward to these so much!

You gotta remember that the red line goes across the whole world so to get to the second half of the grand line they will come in contact with the red line again. Love your review format it keeps your watch so fresh

It’s been so much fun watching how you analyze this epic series. I can’t wait to see your reaction for Thriller Bark!!

I love these videos, it reminds me of my first read through

Amazing vid man really loving this channel

Im so glad you got into One Piece. You're reviews/reactions are great and makes it so nostalgic. Thank you so much for doing these!

I loved your reaction and your energy hearing one piece explanation is joy to watch

OH I'M SO EXCITED FOR YOU. I LOVE THIS NEW SET UP OF U SHARING UR THOUGHTS RIGHT AFTER U READ EM

25:06 It's been unofficially confirmed by showrunner Matt Owens. JLC has been lobbying for that role for years already, and she sort of recently posted online that as soon as the strikes come to an end she would resume her campaign to get the role, and got a reply from Matt saying she didn't need to, that them sending her merchandising was because they want her in, and that they would put everything on paper once the strikes were over

Another great vlog, Water Seven and Enie's Lobby was such an amazing story arc, and the reveal of Dragon being Luffy's dad and Garp being Luffy's grandpa were jaw dropping moments for sure. I love Sanji's wanted poster. The weird face on it and his reaction to it was hilarious. I know a lot of people didn't care much for Thriller Bark but I enjoyed it a lot and I hope you do too. Excited for your reactions to that!

You and Mom Piece are my favorites right now. Fun to see you enjoy this

I'm so looking forward to your reaction to the next arc. It isnt generally seen as one of the better ones, but it has several moments that are just amazing

some of these theory's are great at least 1 of them was bang on.

😂 it's impossible to outsmart Oda, u can make assumptions but not forecasting 🤣

I was just watching your theory about Roger and bro, I laughed so much, of course it was because a know the story already, but the thing is: your theory is something that could really happen in One Piece, the heart is in the right place here, keep going hahaha

Man it's great that you won't have to wait for some of the answers. Years of waiting was painful 😂

How great to see you enjoying yourself this much! And please keep theorizing. Like others said, it's part of the journey of us fans, but also, it is highly entertaining for me, while I read it. It is both reminiscent of all the stuff I came up with, but it is also very funny to see you go all over the place, while I know where the story's going. Enjoy!

Awesome stuff

I'm thrilled to see the next video

The "post" arcs tend to hit you with the lore until you're dizzy, that's for sure. I love it, but I also think that Oda paces them out really well so that you are always left wanting more. The next arc, Thriller Bark, in contrast, focuses much more on the immediate adventure. Not that there is no lore or worldbuilding at all, but it's definitely not mainly about that. I love your point of the Monkey family being planted one in each of the three great powers, and I think you're right about that being deliberate. I think it's fair to say that Franky has inherited the WILL of Tom, if nothing else. The way of looking at the world and the same drive to create the same sort of wonders, maybe? One of the great things about One Piece is how familial bonds don't need blood relations. Iceberg is great, I love him. And Franky. Your first try at Haki was the best! (Generally, in Japanese the first syllable is slightly more emphasised, you could say. The Japanese "a" sound is closest to the "u" sound in the word "under", for English speakers.) I love how Haki was "officially" introduced here, and how it made the world even more interesting. Yeah, we've seen traces of it up until now, but from now on it's kind of been moved into the limelight, so to speak. I love Robin so much. She looks so serious, but she isn't really. She has a wonderful morbid sense of humour, and is very often on the exact same wavelength as Luffy, only with a serene surface. And she knows the exact right time to grab a man by his balls, which is something to aspire to. And I laughed so much during that whole sequence, the chase was hilarious. The Usopp stuff in all of these three arcs is so great. Everything he does is so relatable, even while you see how much of a mistake it is. But he really, really, needed to actually see Luffy as his captain, to acknowledge that. He HAD been playing at pirates in a lot of ways up until then. But to me it also felt really good to see someone make a terrible mistake and then being able to change for the better from acknowledging he'd been wrong. I love the name Thousand Sunny, but I'm not a native English speaker, so I just think the combination sounds cool. Also because of Iceberg's comment about how he thought of the name. The glimpses of the people of the crew's hometowns and friends (and Vivi is totally still a crew member). Dadan has not been mentioned before, that's all I'm saying. About the catalyst moment, that's something I think One Piece does really well: showing a world that works independently of the main characters. Like you said, the Straw Hats weren't even involved, but it will trigger so many events within this world. Looking forward to Thriller Bark! It has some truly great moments, and I love the sort of adventure it is.

So excited to see how you handle the next couple arcs😂

Glad you can continue on the LiveAction now, that was actually great, not perfect regarding Usopp's portrayal, but great...can't wait for you to talk about Sanji in it. That man is smoooth.

Can’t wait for the next arc, Yohohoho!

Been waiting for this.

Don't worry about Manga/Live Action spoilers. The only one was the Garp thing and I think live action did it good. Garp wasn't really much at this point in the manga, just came out of nowhere and was like "Hi, I'm your grandpa". Him being Luffy's grandpa up to this point is meaningless and doesn't affect story at all.

hearing you disappointed about all ur theories are wrong is legit a true one piece fan moment.

LOVE THIS

I’m so excited for these upcoming arcs 😭😭😭

Jamie Lee Curtis has been unofficially confirmed to play the role of Dr. Kureha. I say unofficially because the people behind live action adaptation have told her the role was hers, that they had to wait for the end of the strike to start talks with her and make it official.

I’m a little ahead in the show but pretty close to here in the manga. Fun to hear all your thoughts as I don’t have much more knowledge than you! Ennies Lobby/Water 7 is so good! The Usopp/Going Merry story line was rough in the best way possible 😢😊

First off welcome to the fandom mate. Its gonna be a heck of a ride. Second, I'd put Fishman Island in the back of your mind for now. It'll be some time before they get there but I assure you, its coming. Just enjoy the adventure for now cause its about to get real.

Post enies lobby is so good. This whole saga is not just well written and a great read but I feel like it has so much character development for the crew. Luffy has to level up in power and in his definition of a captain and I love how Zoro helps him do that both in water 7 and in post enies. Just good stuff.

"I wonder how strong Garp was back in the day" brother you have no idea 😂😂 im so in love with these reactions. Watching people fall in love with and catch up makes me so happy

Happy to get another video. Sad it’s only 30 min 😢.

I like hearing your theories.

“was it from a devil fruit" he used it while swimming 😂

remember zoro said if the first thing out of ussops mouth is not an apology they cant take him back so they acted like they couldnt hear him until he finally did

Other name to call the Thousand Sunny is either Sunny or Sunny Go. Btw just so you know (this isn't a spoiler cause it was mentioned outside the manga volumes we usually buy) but Shanks became a Yonko 6 years ago. And yes, Blackbeard was indeed trying to go after Luffy. Because he has a significant bounty. Remember Jaya? Blackbeard was after Luffy then. Why he wanted Luffy I believe was also hinted at in Jaya, however I don't want to spoil you, so it'll be obvious later on.

One more thing about Garp you may know, but missed to mention. He is not simply a Vice Admiral. He is the "Hero of the Marines" who captured Gol D. Roger. This is a very big deal.

re: worldbuilding, Merphy Napier, who I know you know, said something along the lines of that it is a travesty Eiichiro Oda isn't in every single "top 10 world building in fantasy" listicle out there alongside the greatest fantasy novelists and I could not agree more

9:50 You already know what the divide between the first and second half of the Grand Line is called, if you think hard enough. We already saw it once (and remember the world is a sphere after all).

The fact that unknowingly you ended up getting to Thriller Bark so close to Halloween... must be providence.

Numero uno One Piece reviewer CONFIRMED! 💯

To the Second half: As the World is a ball, it has 2 significant lines. Nami mentioned them when they drove onto reverse mountain. The Red Line: A red rlly HIGH line of Rock going around the entire world. Grand Line: a line of sea going Orthogonal to the Redline Araound the World. Due to the Red Line and Grand Line crossing each other there is reverse Mountain and the Other side of the Planet is the second half of the Grand line. The part were we are atm is called Paradies.

cant wait for your reaction to the best arc thriller bark! look out for some of the best comedic moments in piece as well as imo the best villain (:

9:50 it was already said that the red line goes around the globe. so you could have guessed that the grandline is split in 2. But now we have a new name for it
