Tekking im not sure if you'll find this comment, but you are the person who got me into One Piece. Without your videos on Chapter Reviews and One Piece theories I don't think i'd still be watching and even reading One Piece today. I just want to say thank you for the years of content that you've given us all this time. ❤
I am in the same boat. I discovered Tekking from his coverage of MHA, and then I saw videos talking about One Piece, and I thought back to the old 4kids show I watched as a kid, and didn’t realize that the series was still ongoing. Watching some of his videos about One Piece lore and the chapter reviews was what inspired me to start reading the series, andI managed to catch up before chapter 1000.
I got that same feeling, the first things were the scythe and pants, then having the robotic hands and the face look kind of similar as well as his entire outfit the more I looked at it looked really punk rock so I know exactly what you mean
Disobeys the fleet admiral, finds a loophole in the orders of the fleet admiral, knowingly endangers the lives of corrupt non humans he is supposed to be serving, doesn't give a f*ck and uses one of the 12 strongest blades in the world as a cane. Truly a badass.
@alfredhinton8792 Most likely the man marked by flames. He was a former warlord who fought Ace & don't see Ace killing his opponents. Can see him being a conquerors user too.
Given Zoro’s Wano heritage and Kidd’s backstory existing solely in Oda’s desk drawer, and by extension, the SBS, Oda definitely has tons of materials for things that he’s considered and created, but won’t show off.
@davidortiz3094 your reading comprehension is awful mate... the man marked by flames is definitely a character that is more prominent to the story than random shichibukai that nobody cares about 😂
Like Tekking said, Oda has tons of character designs unused laying around, he probably just grabbed one for the SBS, don't think he created the design just to put on a SBS, Oda usually just makes sketches for SBS drawings
No way he isn’t tied to Kaido especially with the ancient zoan hobby. His defeat is about the same time as punk hazard incident and Caesar making SAD and the smiles
Maybe he used to be part of Kaido's crew and left in bad terms or something. Or he was just jealous of Kaido. Kaido is quite old so having some former crew members is possible.
What if Toritoma follows a pattern and we can guess who her lovesickness was for? Gloriosa: a rocks pirate, possibly whitebeard. Shakky: a Roger pirate, Rayleigh. Boa: a strawhat pirate, Luffy. What’s in between Roger and Luffy? The red hair pirates…
Toritoma was around late 30s when she died. At that point the strongest pirates around were the OG Yonko though Shanks wasn't a Yonko yet. So maybe the Yonko that Shank replaced was the one.
@@arugono honestly I hadn’t even considered the Yonko factor, I was more so just thinking about plot central/notable crews generationally! Interesting call
I think it is Rocks. We don't know what happened to him after God Valley incident. He may still have his ship and it might be coated in black and he might have whirlpool powers. We don't know.
no hate, but u think its rocks for no reason? ur reason is that u simply dont know anything about him? just seems to lack substance to be posted as a theory and a bit silly u decided to explain it with statements of uncertainty@@muhammadfaisal5Y5
Fun fact about the cover: oda shows his progress on the cover he drew kuma frowning, then drew bonny and changed kumas frown to a smile :) so wholesome
@@leolegendario1 where I saw it it only said that he died, not that it was when they were children, but maybe you're right and that wasn't mentioned where I saw it
@@leolegendario1 I too have thought about this. But if would make sense if Hanafuda was their older brother and he killed their father to take over the crew. He could also have pulled a Hamlet and be their uncle that killed his brother.
i always assumed, given Yamatos white hair, that Granny Nyon got the love sickness for Kaido but that might also just be me wanting to characters in this series to have mothers who are alive
So I have a theory. Blackbeard defeated ace to become a warlord (Spade pirates). Blackbeard beats Law at winner island (heart pirates). Following this pattern I believe Blackbeard will possibly target and defeat the Barto Club (Club).Then I guess we'd be looking for the representation of the "diamond pirates". 4 major wins for Blackbeard all represented by the suits in a deck of cards.
Interesting thought. Maybe Whitebeards flag design, where the bones are crossed horizontal and vertical instead of diagonal, and Diamond Jozu was one of Whitebeards captains and was beaten during the time skip by Blackbeard.
Or he might have been building an Ancient Zoan crew to fight against the Beast Pirates, which would put him in a similar league with Gekkomoria with both wanting to defeat Kaido.
In the time lapse of Oda drawing the cover, you see his thought process amidst the frames and the cutest thing happens. Oda goes through a few ideas, like the Saturn sketch, but then he tried the Kuma in the middle and stuck to that. Kuma was frowning at the start, Oda drawing him running and everything but then he drew Bonney, and after a moment of thought he changed that frown into a smile and that dictated the final design with the dance. All of that because Kuma would never frown or cry with his daughter nearby, he would always smile by just being near her, it's a fact of life that Oda couldn't deny.
18:20 About Boa: She became the empress of Amazon Lily at the age of 18 as well as the captain of the Kuja pirate. With 1 expedition they put an 80 million berry on her head and offered her a Warlord position. Which is somewhat wild. if you don't believe me check chapter 522 of volume 53. it's on the 4th panel on the 5th page of the chapter.
@@alfredhinton8792 it is but I think oda said it doesnt work the same nor is the back story of her and luffy but she is shank's daughter. But apparently didnt want a pirate to float and fly I guess its just too strong if it isnt powered flight/floating
Oda could always just retcon the fruit to be different, create some limits or change the mechanics of the fruit. at least thats what i would do if i was in his shoes.
Imagine how cool shiki would have been if he stood on two sword legs and had to fight like that as well now we won't even see him standing since it's just more convenient to fly (also 4 sword style would've looked way cooler if he decides two wield two sword in his hands)
Hanafuda is definetly a design Oda had in mind for one of the Tobi Roppo. I mean his name is a pun on a card game, and he is obsessed with ancient zoans. Maybe he was the father of Ulti and Page One since Kaido took them in because they are the children of a dead friend of his that was a pirate. Maybe Hanafuda being Kaido's friend and a warlord is how Kaido first got in contact with Doflamingo and Caesar Clown
OK hear me out: A mostly canon one piece movie: Film Ace (pending title): We have a separate side story about his early days in the Whitebeard Pirates, up to his Wano detour, but the main villian of the movie is Hanafuda and his crew of ancient zoan elites, and Ace, Deuce, and some others would go up against them in a big climactic series of clashes
Pretty sure that Ace beat Hanafuda before he joined White Beard's crew. And if they do an Ace movie I really hope that they use Boichi's artstyle from the Ace chapters he drews
@@adoniscreed4031 ah, prior to him getting beat by WB, right, well a good lead in to a new pirate ace and taking on a warlord would still be a good concept for a special or movie
I always figured since he was constantly touching the swords, it allowed him to push himself and the steering wheel in his head gave him control over his direction
@@saeedabdo2083 that doesn't mean they weren't part of some sort of grand fleet under Hanafuda. I think he's the man marked by flames personally, Ace definitely gave him burn scars if he is still alive.
I mean, it's not a big deal but I still feel the need to point out, Hanafuda is NOT the name of a game itself but actually just the name of the type of playing card used in Japan for not just one specific game but for various games, generally for gambling.
It was ALREADY implied Fujitora is from Wano but now this sword is the literal PROOF. -- 52 years 25 people left Wano -- 10 people stayed and founded Shimotsuki village while the other 15 wandered the world That means that any and ALL characters with any link to Japan (Wano = Japan) via hobby, aesthetic, or design is 100% from Wano That included: -- Fujitora, he's definitely in his 60s so he likely got it from his dad, also aesthetic wise, it's pretty damn obvious -- Akainu, he is 55, that means he was either born outside of Wano or came as a baby. His link to Japan: he has an irezumi (Japanese yakuza tattoo) -- Kumadori from CP9 and his mom, obvious Kabuki aesthetic -- Tashigi, she's obviously another Shimotsuki cousin thanks to obvioius "ANIME GENETICS". We all thought Shimotsuki Ushimaru would be Zoro's dad but he turned out to be a great uncle, they're still related AND look alike, so it's 100% sure Tashigi is another cousin. Also the "sword geek" is the link too.
just because fujitora has a sword made in wano doesnt mean he is from wano and definitely not a proof enough to say 100% so we need a bit of more information to say for sure
@@anhtuancao4167 Occam's Razor, the ovious answer is the correct one Why would you NOT think Fujitora is not from Wano? It's like seeing that South Park episode making fun of trans and there's Randy Savage dressed as a woman calling himself "her", would you believe him when you can see otherwise? Fujitora is 100% from Wano UNTIL proven otherwise, it's right in front of us Thank you for your devil's advocate comment though
@@n1hondude what's occams razor ? can't say anything to the southpark comment xD have no idea about that back to Fujitora that's just my opinion calm down haha I get that there are a lot of hints like his looks. but as long as we have no confirmation I ll stay on the neutral side. kinda also depends how u define someone from Wano. like is it enough if only relatives were from wano but you yourself have been raised outside like Kuina and zoro or do u have have to actually lived there to call yourself from wano.
I don't think I'd call Buggy's foot hitting Zoro in the LA a mistake (unless it was both at the same time?) Yes it was technically stated that his "feet" need to be on the ground for him to fly, but one foot seems to be enough because we have seen his feet walk before
7:06 I just figured Hanafuda works under Kaido and collects ancient Zoan fruits for him since he has a pirate license from the WG. He's named after a card game and his nickname suggests he uses the tyrannosaurus fruit
Honestly the whole travel aspect of kuma’s fruit reminded me of how the key “components” of instant transmission and flying raijin techniques operate in that there has to be a connection of some sort to use the technique being the aspect of locking onto a familiar energy signature for the instant transmission and the formula seals that minato and tobirama both had when they used the flying raijin and ironically enough they could use each others unique raijin formula seals
Hanafuda looks like his design eventually became aspects of Kid, Killer, and X Drake. His name being based on a card game, and him collecting ancient zoan users he may have inspired the concept of the tobiroppo too
Tekking, I’m not sure if you’ll find this comment, but you are the person who got me into #BRINGBACKBARRYSDAD. Without your Christmas miracle introducing him into the Tekking101 verse, I may have never truly understood what happiness really was. Now I see him in the beauty of all things; I see his smile in every child’s eyes, his kindness in every laugh we make, and his selflessness in the gentle breeze I get when walking to the nearest corner store for that missing gallon of milk. Until the day I die, I will always be wishing and praying to finally #BRINGBACKBARRYSDAD and I could never do so without your help. Thank you, Tekking!
I could totally see Hanafuda being the man marked by flames, since ace did beat him, and ace has the flare flare fruit. Hanafuda was a warlord so he wouldve been a pretty big deal. 😮 I bet you 10$ tekking!
Toritoma si Luffy's mom, and the Love sicknes was for luffy, because he was a boy so he could not live in Amazon lily, "mothers love" Kind of relates to ace?
Surprised shiki and Fuji haven't met yet. Sword user who can float/levitate they'd be great buddies. Also lost parts of their bodies. Fuji eyes shiki legs
@@mr_moose0368 like oda said in this sbs, reading comprehension, his fruit is canon, he didn't want anyone to have it but after the movie gave him this fruit oda has to use it in story if he uses shiki
I think hanafuda was secretky working for kaido and collecting ancient zoan devil fruits for him, and after his defeat, Doflaming stepped in like : hey Kaido, i can give you an infinite amount of zoan fruits 😃
Tekking! Ive been watching your videos for years and i just wanna thank you for being the one guy that picks a part my favorite anime and get in depth on topics like this and the devil fruits and everything your really great at what you do and i love watching your vids. Ive never commented before i just wanted you to know how awesome your vids are i watch everyone you post and i cant wait to see one piece to the end with you in the future 😊😊
Bringing up the limitations of what Dr Kureha can do makes sense in the grand scheme. I remember people asking why Corazon didn't take Law to see her to get the White Lead Disease cured. It might very well have been that even Dr. Vegapunk couldn't have been able to do it, and only the OP-OP Fruit was capable.
How cool would it have been if Hanafuda was part of kaido's crew and he hated so much that he would even try to hurt loofy. Kind of like with don chinjao And garp and lyffy would have been annoyed That's someone hates him for that And because it involves ace it's emotional.
I literally thought about this when I saw it haha, I was like oh tekking coulda just waited for Oda to say what the cane sword was called instead of looking it up lol
Tekking I know your just a guy making videos but I’ve been watching you for YEARS now, you are my comfort RU-vidr and I watch your videos the night before every big exam to go to bed and you have got me all the way to the point where I graduated with my doctorate and I still watch your videos for my licensing exams. So in short I know you don’t actually know me but thanks for always being there tekking.
My best guess is why hanafuda got a full design is because he might be shown in the live action one piece as a cameo simliar to the orginal mr 7, nothing to major just a cameo apperence i could see
The info is cool dont get me wrong. But it's so dumb to learn Fuji has one of the 12 supreme blades in an SBS. Why cant Oda be bothered to add a tiny box in the manga that says its rank? Out of the 5 supreme, 3 were revealed outside of the story.
I interpret Kuma as "marking" islands he visits, and that's how he's able to send people to where he's been, including Weatheria, a *wandering sky island*
Couldn't Shiki just make his clothes float? Like... I know that him having the double sword peg legs is badass and it's how he escaped I.D but like, he could just make his clothes float and not the swords
I feel like with the bonney question. She has to be able to stay whatever age she wants either for longer or permanent. She was always shown in her older form till we learned the truth about her age, and really the only time we ever saw her change forms was when she turned into an old lady (as now we know that her turning into a kid at sabaody was her true self) It'd make sense If the user could game the system but would revert to their actual age when they're knocked out or have sea stone cuffs on
I would not be surprised if Toritoma had a sister that now goes by the alias Crocodile. Croc wanting to see Roger's execution could be how Toritoma met Dragon. Would also explain Crocs trust issues.
Maybe not in the live action but in the anime since it is in Egghead arc right now. They could show briefly the battle between Ace and Hanafuda in the anime when it reaches the Kuma flashback episodeds
@@lordfreezer5631 maybe but that would be a first, I don't remember oda designing a character that would only be seen in the anime (not counting the movies)
Tekking is great because of how chill he is compared to the rest of the One Piece fanbase. He's not obsessed with agendas, powerscaling, or complaining when a plot point doesn't go in a direction that he predicted.
This sbs is such a w, info on a new warlord & possibly the backstory and father of ulti and page one and the fruits kaidos crew have not to mention now know 1 more supreme grade blade
I think they were young children when their father died, so he's probably not their father, but I could definitely see him being their uncle that killed their father to possibly take over the crew.
The way I always take the movies is that any events outside the movies is Canon, like Zephyr is real, and a warlord took his arm, he is somewhere in the world, Tesoro exist, his backstory actually happened, it's just the events in present movie day that aren't Canon, I say this because Chapter/Episode Zero shows Shiki planing his Merville Project which is Canon but his plan never comes to fruition. Uta is shown in the Manga so she Exist, her and Luffy had a Childhood together, and Shanks took the blame for Tot Musica but Uta never plans to enslave the world.
If I remember correctly Oda didn't originally intend to have the warlords, just going straight into the Emperors, so maybe Hanafuda is the proto Kaido that we would have gotten?
Something I just thought regarding kuma's devil fruit limitation, could Oda made him visit mariejoa in order to be familiar with the location for future teleportations in the final war? Imagine the entire grand fleet and the straw hats and allies just appear there to wreck havoc
With regards to Hanafuda, I have a question (to any who may have the answer): I read or heard somewhere that Oda plans out the stories of several characters before deciding whether he should incorporate them in this story and before choosing how to incorporate them. Then, he decides if it adds to the narrative. Are these statements true? If so, what are these sources?
15:50 she may be not Hancock biological mother but she clearly take care of her as an adoptive mother. Boa Hancock and her sisters marigold and Sandersonia were in the Kuja ships before being captured by tenryubito’s agents then turn to slavery. They were child not adult pirate . She clearly raised them with the idea to make her the new empress she saw Hancock talent and willpower
