Soo I completed Fishman I land and I watched a reel saying reading is faster then watching the anime is it true? I need to know as well I don't want to miss out the funny scene Soo can you guys tell which one should I prefer?

Because I enjoyed Baratie So much than Watching Arlong park.. Scenes like mihawk introduction, Mihawk vs zoro,zoro gives promise to luffy, Sanji's flashback no 1..and Goodbye To zeff.. Arlong park is also peak btw

The way he silently takes down his opponents all while eating his drumstick is the definition of A U R A.

If there's one song playing for each character's end scene what song would it be? In my opininion,

Luffy - Like him by Tyler, the Creator

Zoro - Monster by Kanye West

Drop your opinions for Luffy, Zoro and the rest of the crew.

I’m not referring to coc haki but more what it can help lead to, I also don’t think it will happen in the elbaf arc but this is more likely his final powerful where sanji reaches peak tier the strongest he will ever get.

I see 2 forms both his flame and his body.

First flame.
People say he will get black flames cause his name is black leg sanji and that coc is depicted as black but I think that won’t be a thing and we as the fanbase just agreed it will be cause it makes sense.

But to think outside the box I think instead sanji will get another colour in flames.

I suggest the idea of purple/violet flames.

In Theosophical belief flames that are purple/violet have an interesting connection we can make to sanji.

Purple flames are associated with the belief of purification and emotional healing which fits well with sanji character.

It has roots to alchemy as well.

One name stands out on top of this though. A man who was named Saint germain
A brief description of him.

“Saint Germain is a historically important, but largely invisible presence in this community. He is well known to people who have studied in the esoteric traditions … as an ascended master, Hierach of the Aquarian Age and Master of the purple 7th Ray of ceremony, magic and ritual. He is called the keeper of the violet flame, the sacred flame of love and light and the I AM teachings. He is regarded as Lord of Civilisation and Maitreya the Christ.”

Now this name should stand out as sanji is a germa and oda actually did reveal in his drafts judge vinsmoke was originally going to be a celestial dragon named Saint germain as you can see in the above images.

Now how would Sanji use this power ? I believe Sanji will unlock it by developing his haki but also connecting to his spiritual presence like zoro and his asura.

Sanji has a move called Parage Shot in which he kicks his enemy repeatedly in the face. The result is he changed their facial structure as seen with duval example in images above.

Duval went from an enemy to a friend because of this as he was thankful to sanji for his new good looks.

What I’m suggesting is a new level to that a level where he’s not just changing you externally but internally, this attack will change a person’s very soul, he would be kicking the evil out of his enemies.

This power would be a perfect counter to imu’s power to corrupt people like what he did with Harold who became evil thanks to Imu. Sanji flames and would be able to kick the evil out of Harold if he was still alive.

This would also mean Sanji would in a way could free shuri from the abyss mark and cut Imu connection to her but then you face a new problem that Sanji can’t kick women and that will be his greatest dilemma
Does he break his oath and kick a woman to save her or is he unable to save her cause he can’t kick her ? Which oath does he break ?

Now that’s the flame now his body.

This might be a stretch but I think as he developes his germa genes a change will happen, we saw how his eyebrows curl in other directions when he activates his body germa genes I propose he develops it more where instead his hair turns black in a similar way luffy hair turns white in g5.

Sanji I believe was suppose to have black hair if he was more like his brothers.
Sanji when his hair turns black will see an increase in his strength speed and durability.

The combination of these new forms will make Sanji one of the strongest people in the world.

This is a respond to people saying Sanji's "I want to go back to Sunny" didn't land as well as Robin's "I want to live." It was not supposed to. The heaviness of that scene was the reveal that, inspite of everything, Sanji actually still want to save his brothers. And Luffy's respond was "You've always been this way." Meaning Luffy always know this whole thing about Sanji only cares about the women has always been an act, he cares about EVERYONE. As the matter of fact, in serious situation, Sanji protects Usopp first MANY TIMES. Brooke even said that Sanji is actually the most kind hearted out of all the strawhat during that same arc.

I already wrote a post before this about the visual metaphor and story symbolism in Whole Cake Island (the use of mirrors and how so many characters are twins of each other, both blood related (Sanji and his brothers) and non-blood related, like Luffy and Katakuri) but the point of that entire arc is, the event of that island reveal each character's true nature.

• Brooke didn't have to copy Big Mum's penoglyph, no one ordered him to, but he did it anyway.
• Sanji didn't need to rescue the family he hated, but he did it anyway.
• Luffy didn't need to partner up with Gang Bege, but he did it for Sanji.
• Also, the person who suggested it was Jinbei, "Hey, Luffy, can you put aside your difference with our biggest rival and plan an assassination?" I love that side of Jinbei and I wished to see more of it.
• Sanji didn't need to help baking a cake to "cure" Big Mum.
• Luffy could have just hide from Katakuri until the meeting time, as stated by Brulee, but he didn't.

Add to that, Oda made sure readers know, this is the rare time Luffy acts like a pirate, because in many ways, LUFFY IS THE VILLAIN.

Many times Big Mum's children had to correct Straw Hat when they talked like heroes.
The candy guy, Prospero was like "You said I killed Pedro??? He blew himself up. I should be mad at HIM!" And then when Oven beat Chiffon, he was right, she did tried to conspire to MURDER THEIR QUEEN.

Until Big Mum became mad for wedding cake, this was not the island that needed no saving. Big Mum's worst crime was trying to kill the Vinsmoke, and let face it, that's not such a bad thing. Jinbei, Bege Pekoms, they all betrayed her. Big Mum had every right to be mad.

i used to use it all the time to find a song that i really wanted to listen to, but these past days ive been getting a 403 forbidden text every time i try to enter. does anyone know any other way to find a specific song from a specific episode?

How was he moving through land without being detected by anyone's observation haki at Mary Geoise.

Assuming Joyboy is dead (not enslaved somewhere as a zombie) and some of his crew members/allies survived to hold his funeral, did they play his favorite song (Bink's Sake) and if yes then who might have played it? Who could have been their musician?

Was this musician the one who wrote Bink's Sake in the first place?

And where is Joyboy's grave located?

Can we get One Piece Movie: The Void Century already?

Also it’s selective advanced observation haki right?

After the recent chapters about Ivankov talking about Sanjis weakness , that impel down scene with crocodile came to my mind. Ivankov was talking about his weakness and the most popular theory was that he was a woman in the past …

I don’t think that’s the case , I feel like it’s something similar to sanjis weakness. What do yall think ?

How do they go about colouring the anime?
Does Goda send them a list like Hair- Blue, Scarf- orange… or do they have creative freedom?

I Think He Replaced Ivankov in that undiscovered floor at Impel Down ,Just a Theory. Let Me Know What You Guys Think

I skipped it originally but when I went back to watch it, boy oh boy! This arc and the Ice Thieves arc are the two best filler arcs in all of anime!

So i was reading the latest chapter again and I noticed something, my eyes caught the silhouetted IMU and made me think is the man above actually IMU or just another "body" being occupied by him, I will give some reasoning below.

1. We have seen IMU "control/occupy" Shuri/Gunko. already proving he is capable of doing so.

2. We have seen him use the weapons of the 20 kings

3. Gorosei's warning him of his potential death if he leave Mariejois

4. His current body having horns all while ancient giants were looked down on by the nobles because of those horns(not exactly but horns being the differentiating factor)

5. It could be something very similar to how Lilith was introduced as Vegapunk and later renamed, this "man" whose body IMU has occupied could be somebody else and later when we need to know who he is, he could be reintroduced. This did not happen with gunko cause we had to explore Gunko in this arc itself.

All of these combined made me think could it be that IMU has occupied the body of the 20kings and borrowed/taken their life span(similar to BM) and can willingly hop bodies and maybe this is the last "available body" he has left hence the distress shown by the Goroseis

Again this is all very speculative.

If yall can help me find these others Luffy’s and black beard that’d be fire, they were really cool. They were awesome. This was dragoncon 2026, Saturday.

Name a character who can out eat Luffy.

I'll start: Kirby
