One Piece fan uses Monsters Inc to predict outcome of Egghead Island While we await the next entry of One Piece, a fan presents a theory that could reveal how the Egghead Island arc comes to a close – and it somehow involves Disney Pixar’s Monsters Inc. One Piece rarely uses outside source material to inspire the story directly, similar to Dragon Ball being inspired by Journey to the West. Though series creator Eiichiro Oda has stated that Dragon Ball Z was a big inspiration for the series, fans consider that the case for most anime, as DBZ seemingly paved the way for most modern shows. As we wait for the next exciting chapter, fans have done what they do best and used the time to wildly speculate what’ll happen next. One fan may have taken things a bit too far with an oddly applicable theory involving a Disney film. One Piece fan uses Monsters Inc to figure out Egghead Island arc On the One Piece subreddit, u/quickhelmets brought a wild theory to the table that predicts where the Egghead Island arc is heading. The strange part is that it includes the Disney Pixar film Monsters Inc. While this theory oddly makes sense, fans in the comment section are a bit more skeptical, believing the wait for each new chapter may be driving people a bit crazy. We’re not agreeing with it, we’re just saying it makes sense. This may seem pretty whacky, but fans have made even weirder stipulations because of the long break between chapters before. Hang in there, One Piece fans; a new chapter will be with us soon!

One Piece fan theory about Gorosei reignites after Chapter 1119 – Dexerto
One Piece fan theory about Gorosei reignites after Chapter 1119 CrunchyrollA key moment in One Piece Chapter 1119 has reignited a long-running fan theory about the Gorosei in relation to Devil Fruit. One Piece delivered one of its best chapters of the Egghead Arc with Chapter 1119. It shows the Gorosei dividing their forces and the aftermath of their fight against the Iron Giant, whose name is revealed to be Emeth. After they blow Emeth into the sea, they turn their focus towards destroying the Elbaf ship. Following this, Mars and Ju Peter have a brief clash against Luffy’s Gear 5, as well as Bonney, Sanji, and Franky. But it’s Warcury who’s helped reignite an old but plausible theory about the Gorosei. At the end of the chapter, Warcury leaps into the sea to destroy to ship. However, before he can manage, he’s punched in the face by Emeth. Since the reveal of the Gorosei’s monster forms, a common belief is that they’re all Mythical Zoan users. Otherwise, such monstrous transformations make no sense. At least, that’s how it seemed at that time. However, there have been several clues since then that suggest the Gorosei aren’t Devil Fruit users at all. Not only are their transformed forms very uncommon and strangely overpowered, they also have an unexplained magical summoning ritual. Warcury jumping into the sea without any fear fuels this One Piece theory all the more. The sea is the deadliest for all Devil Fruit users since the fruits take away the users’ ability to swim and can lethally weaken them with just a touch. If Warcury isn’t afraid of the sea, that means he doesn’t suffer from the same weakness as every other Devil Fruit user. So, he and his fellow Gorosei may not be Devil Fruit users at all, and their powers could come from something else. However, that’s just speculation at this point. There could be something else behind Warcury’s behavior. But until we learn more about their abilities, this One Piece fan theory makes the most sense. For more interesting fan theories, check out our pieces on the tragic reason behind Iron Giant’s apology, the existence of the World Government, the Joyboy Roger wanted to meet, and the Fourth Road Poneglyph.

One Piece fan spots “two random dudes” in opening – Dexerto
One Piece fan spots “two random dudes” in opening CrunchyrollWe all know the Straw Hats aboard the Going Merry in One Piece – but does anyone recognize these two stowaways? Openings in anime are often one of two types: full of scenes that could spoil the incoming episodes or a video with fantastic animation mixed well with action relating to the series, both containing catchy music. One Piece utilizes both of these types, with the former being most common since the time skip. One Piece houses a wide cast of memorable characters introduced naturally as the series progresses. In comparison, the One Piece anime often tries to expand the cast within filler episodes, giving the show some breathing room with mediocre episodes. Teasing an upcoming character is understandable, but you wouldn’t guess they would introduce new characters through an intro outright, would you? Fan finds unknown characters in One Piece opening Reddit user Jmdin83 has found a pair of unrecognized characters among the Straw Hats during this intro and rightfully asks, “Who are they?” Although they ask it more colorfully after being surprised with something new in an opening they’ve seen tens of times at this point. At first glance, any reasonable person would think this scene is purposely edited for a joke, so someone in the comments would play along. Saying: “That’s just Jim and Bill the best Straw Hats!” This would be par for the course because they look like relatives of Nami and Nico Robin, who are just out on a field trip with their distant family. Thankfully, a simple search can answer the question of who these mystery men are. Who are these guys? Apparently, these characters are supposed to be the singers of the eighth One Piece opening song, “Crazy Rainbow,” by Japanese idol duo Tackey and Tsubasa. They were added to the intro of episode 303, a filler episode during the Enis Lobby arc of One Piece, to celebrate April Fools Day and catch fans off guard. One Piece contains a lot of episodes, so it is natural to want to skip an intro once in a while. With that said, if the animators start adding unique easter eggs in their openings per the day an episode is set to release, fans may find themselves on the hunt for secrets in One Piece intros for episodes that release on holidays.

One Piece fan creates amazing pre-time skip art for your phone – Dexerto
One Piece fan creates amazing pre-time skip art for your phone Toei AnimationLuffy may be on a quest for the One Piece, but we’re on a quest to find a new wallpaper for our phones! Thankfully, a talented One Piece fan saved us an adventure by creating fantastic pre-time skip artwork. One Piece‘s story has evolved over its 25-plus-year ongoing run. It’s so long that author Eiichiro Oda needed to keep upping the stakes and included a two-year time-skip for the Straw Hat crew to get stronger so they could stand a chance when they take on the second half of the Grand Line, the New World. While the post-time skip era has brought One Piece to new heights, fans sometimes long for the more simple nature of the series before the two-year jump; the long plot of Arabasta getting the crew wrapped up in their first big adventure on the Grand Line, the stakes that came with Water 7, and the simple island hopping and facing the danger that comes with it. One Piece fan creates amazing wallpapers before the time skip On the One Piece subreddit, u/SirensbyZel has created an amazing collection of phone wallpapers based on scenes from the pre-timeskip era of the series. From Luffy recruiting Chopper to the Straw Hat crew to Zoro’s epic stand against Bartholomew Kuma in Thriller Bark, this fan has encapsulated some of the greatest moments in the pre-time skip era of One Piece. What we especially love here is the inclusion of scenes from the openings that are often inspired by the chapter cover pages, which sometimes contain an ongoing story told over many chapters, one cover at a time. This fan clearly has a thing for Nico Robin, the archaeologist of the Straw Hat crew, as she makes an appearance more prominently than other characters in the wallpapers. Whether it’s the Going Merry calming resting on the sea at night or Whitebeard attacking Marineford during the Summit War, this One Piece fan has got you covered for your next phone wallpaper.

One Piece fan is training like Zoro – but people are worried – Dexerto
One Piece fan is training like Zoro – but people are worried CrunchyrollGetting exercise to get stronger is a great goal when you’re being safe. Replicating Zoro’s training from One Piece, on the other hand, may bring more than just workout questions to your gym sessions. One Piece, and anime in general, house a lot of outlandish training methods so their characters can pull off their amazing feats of strength. These are fictional animated series where the creator leans on the most impressive-looking and impactful ways characters can get stronger over down-to-earth training. This school of thought alone should discourage fans from recreating what they see. Our favorite anime swordsman, Zoro, puts in the work for his dream to become the world’s greatest swordsman, often in the background of scenes doing some larger-than-life gag-based exercise that no one in real life could come close to performing. By that logic, you shouldn’t even try to start working out like him, right? Well, one fan may be taking Zoro’s inspiration too far. One Piece fan’s Zoro-based training methods pulls in concern Reddit user FitQuit1977 has shared his workout session, including unsafe lifting techniques heavily inspired by the three sword-wielding swordsman Zoro from One Piece to much concern from onlookers. Maybe One Piece needs to come with a “do not try this at home” warning. While they’re not the massive anime-logic-sized weights Zoro swings around to increase his strength, One Piece fans still call out the impractical and dangerous methods this person uses to work out. In the comments, a personal trainer shows their concern, going into great detail about what’s wrong with this picture and letting them down easily without discouraging someone from exercising. “Hey buddy, Personal Trainer here with 16 years experience. “I wanna encourage you to keep working out and using Zoro’s training as an inspiration. However, a few things to keep in mind: Oda isn’t drawing based on exercise science/ what’s legitimately effective, but on what looks cool. – Even should his initial drawings be ok, the movements done in the anime may not be. – Even should the movements be correct from both sources, it doesn’t make it the best plan/most effective work.” – They go into further detail, mentioning specific lifting methods, inspirations for more alternative workouts, and encouraging more realistic goals. While Zoro is very inspirational on his journey to become the world’s greatest swordsman, fans must remember that this an anime and style and “cool” factors come first over realism. More One Piece fans gave their two cents that the wrong workout methods can lead to injury, especially if you’re swinging heavy weights around your living room, holding them loosely above your head and arms where they can fall and damage, well, everything on the way down. “Don’t wanna be that guy because well done for finding the motivation to work out and better yourself, but you should definitely lower the weights you’re using, more don’t mean better if it means risking injuries, your body movements are way too unstable for that amount of weight, be careful bro,” said one commenter. Others continued saying “Slipped disk incoming” and “Risking injury is not worth the anime clout,” but we can only hope this well-meaning fan figures out their best safe method for exercising least managed to catch this one before severe damage was done; even if it came 73 days late.

One Piece fan finds hidden details in new “Assu” opening – Dexerto
One Piece fan finds hidden details in new “Assu” opening Toei AnimationAn inquisitive One Piece fan may have found some hidden details in the new anime opening “Assu” tied to the Egghead Island arc The Egghead Island arc has finally kicked off in the One Piece anime to much excitement, as we’ve entered the “final saga” of One Piece, and with a new arc comes a new opening, showcasing what to expect for this new season. Although looking closer, fans think it includes major spoilers for those who don’t read the manga. As is tradition with anything new in the world of anime, fans try to analyze every single shot they see on screen. Usually, this trend of overanalysis rarely bears fruit, but this time, fans believe there are genuine secrets hidden in the intro and that too much is given away in the opening. Warning: this contains spoilers for One Piece’s Egghead Island arc. New One Piece Egghead Island opening “Assu” Watch the new Opening for the Egghead Island arc in the One Piece anime below and see if you can spot any secrets. Hidden details in One Piece’s new opening Reddit user Wild_Ad_3071 has taken it upon themselves to discover any secrets hidden within the new “Assu” opening. Their investigation has seemingly paid off with hidden symbols appearing during a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment. The “Assu” opening itself actually contains a fair bit of spoilers for Egghead Island, including showing the real Dr. Vegapunk, Rob Lucci appearing for a rematch, and Crocodile, Mihawk, and Buggy the Clown are in cahoots up to something. While spoilers in the intro are a common practice for anime, it isn’t for One Piece, and it’s rather excessive. Up to date, One Piece manga readers will recognize these symbols as Nika, the sun god, possibly the outline of one of the Five Elders, “Saturn,” the symbol of the Celestial Dragons, and what looks like a target, respectively. Though that last one is more up for interpretation, the others are fairly standard and may spoil what to expect coming during Egghead Island. If you think that’s a lot to take in, remember that’s just the opening. We’ll have a lot to look forward to since Egghead Island is just starting. In the meantime, you’d like to revisit an older arc with our rankings for the best One Piece arcs, or if action is more your speed, check out our picks for the best fights in One Piece.

One Piece fan branded “evil” after lying to friend about Ace – Dexerto
One Piece fan branded “evil” after lying to friend about Ace One Piece may feature some genuinely evil villains, but a fan has given them a run for their money after lying to a friend about Ace’s fate. One Piece is a relatively innocent series compared to other anime when you look at how the series handles death. Characters definitively dying doesn’t occur very often in One Piece; series creator Eiichiro Oda has even gone on record saying that he doesn’t like killing characters off, so when it does happen, it’s extremely impactful. The evil villains of One Piece might be spreading their dark influence on a particular fan after a comment reveals their scheme to shield a fellow watcher from spoilers, only for their efforts to result in the pain hitting harder when one of the most emotional moments in One Piece befalls them. Fair spoilers: ahead for One Piece up to the Marineford arc! “Evil” One Piece fan compared to Blackbeard after prank on friend Reddit user u/boobywara asks an important question: who’s more evil, the embodiment of darkness and scheming that is Blackbeard, or a fan lying to a friend about Ace surviving all the way to the Wano arc, bypassing his infamous execution? The second image reads: “I sent her [an] image of Ace in Wano flashback to make her think he’s gonna make it that far.” Continuing, “I also reinforced the thought of ‘nobody dies in One Piece’ to keep her guard down.” Fans have flocked to the comments saying this is the most despicable action they’ve ever seen, comparing them to the evil Celestial Dragons of One Piece. On the other hand, some praise this person for using the flashback of Ace in Wano of him and Yamato talking to reaffirm that Ace survives and that they should disregard the inevitable spoilers their friend may face when browsing One Piece online. Whether this is the intent is undoubtedly in question because, as they’re watching Enies Lobby arc, they will find out the truth sooner than later. Since its inception, One Piece has made death a rarity, with none of the villains from East Blue to Wano definitively losing their lives despite the beatdowns they receive; Pell in Arabasta comes to mind. This has left speculation around character reappearances rife in the community until otherwise confirmed in the story. Regardless, Ace’s death will be much more brutal for this fan.

One Piece fan actually predicted major Joyboy twist years ago – Dexerto
One Piece fan actually predicted major Joyboy twist years ago Eiichiro Oda/Toei AnimationOne Piece fans often share different theories and headcanons for the beloved series. Many never come true — however, one fan correctly predicted a major twist regarding Joyboy some time ago. One Piece Chapter 1114 revealed a shocking twist about one of its most mysterious characters, Joyboy. He’s someone we’ve been hearing about for a long time, but actually know very little about, though we’re starting to learn more now. Chapter 1114 finally reveals that the ever-elusive hero is none other than the first pirate in history. The chapter also unveils that Joyboy originally belonged to the scientifically superior Ancient Kingdom and had similar powers to Sun God Nika. This latest twist might have come as a shock to many One Piece readers, but one fan seemed to know what was coming all along. Reddit user quinnybo shared one of his theories on the One Piece subreddit three years ago that has since come true. They theorized that Joyboy is the first pirate as he is described as an epitome of freedom and One Piece portrays pirates as the “free men”. Thus, Joyboy being a pirate makes sense: he was the first “free man.” The Joyboy theory didn’t get a lot of attention and upvotes from the fellow users but, shockingly, it was proven right years later. The original poster’s reasoning also holds water and echoes One Piece’s spirit. Joyboy being confirmed as the first pirate also opens a lot of doors for future predictions. His character is becoming more prominent in the story now that the series is heading towards its conclusion. More information on him and his connection to Luffy is expected to be revealed soon. By revealing this new information about Joyboy, Chapter 1114 also clarifies a lot of confusion and fan theories. The chapter makes it clear that Joyboy and Nika were two separate individuals, and while Nika was a fable from Elbaf, Joyboy was a real person. One Piece is guaranteed to come back with more explosive twists after its recent hiatus. Until then, find out who has the highest bounty in One Piece, what is Vegapunk’s message, and how Trafalgar Law became a woman.

One Piece: Everything we know about Laugh Tale so far – Dexerto
One Piece: Everything we know about Laugh Tale so far CrunchyrollThe last island Laugh Tale is said to hold all the secrets about the world as well as the legendary treasure One Piece. Here’s everything we know about the mysterious island. Ever since the beginning of Luffy’s journey, his primary goal has been to reach Laugh Tale and claim One Piece, a legendary treasure that contains everything the world has to offer. The only people who have been on the island never speak a word about it. Therefore, even now, the entire world believes Laugh Tale to be a myth. Oden’s backstory in the “Wano Country Saga” finally reveals that the island not only has the legendary treasure but also the entire truth about the world. Laugh Tale is an important part of the story, and the Straw Hats are the only step behind tracing its coordinates. Nonetheless, fans have to wait for more than six-seven years to figure everything out about the island. Delve deeper to find out more about the mysterious island of Laugh Tale. The island was called Raftel in the old translation The island had always been called Raftel in all the official and unofficial translations. In Japanese, the pronunciation of “L” and “R” always gets mixed up. In the Stampede movie, however, the name is spelled as “Laugh Tale” on an Eternal Pose. After that, the Funimation dub started using Laugh Tale, though the subbed version did not. Only in One Piece chapter 987 did the series reveal the truth about the world. It made Roger and his crew so happy that they all laughed together. Therefore, since they were the first crew in One Piece to reach the island, they decided to name it Laugh Tale. Laugh Tale can only be located using the four Road Poneglyphs in One Piece Poneglyphs are extremely important in the world of One Piece since they contain information about the Void Century. Everything about that era has been removed from history except for those giant stone Poneglyphs that are scattered around the world. They are usually grey in color, but only four of them are red. The red ones are extremely special since they all tell the coordinates of different islands. Once someone can decipher the four Road Poneglyphs, they can easily locate Laugh Tale by finding an intersection point and then claim the One Piece treasure. So far, Luffy and his crew have acquired three of them, while the location of the fourth one remains a mystery. Joy Boy had left his treasure in Laugh Tale, which was later called One Piece Joy Boy is an extremely important figure in One Piece. He lived around the Void Century and is believed to fight against the World Government. After Luffy awakened his devil fruit, the title of Joy Boy was passed down to him. The series also hints that the first Joy Boy had the same devil fruit power. He was also known as the “Warrior of Liberation.” For reasons unknown, Joy Boy had left a significant amount of treasure and information about the Void Century. After Roger visited Laugh Tale, he left some more treasure. Therefore all that wealth and knowledge combined later came to be known as One Piece. One Piece can currently be streamed on Crunchyroll.

One Piece: Everything we know about God Valley so far – Dexerto
One Piece: Everything we know about God Valley so far CrunchyrollVarious mysteries shroud the island of God Valley, which mysteriously vanished over 38 years ago. Here’s everything we know about God Valley in One Piece. One Piece develops its expansive world-building through backstories involving certain incidents that had significant impacts on the world. Whether it is the obliteration of Ohara, the massacre of Flevance, or even the adventures of Kozuki Oden, all these are covered in flashbacks. Likewise, an important incident in God Valley is mentioned during the “Wano Country Saga.” The incident of God Valley was covered up to hide the alliance between Marines and pirates. However, Sengoku, the former Fleet Admiral, decides to teach the young recruits about the incident. Not only was that the most historical moment of the previous era, but it also introduced a powerful character Rocks D. Xebec. The Rocks Pirates comprise powerful members such as Whitebeard, Big Mom, Kaido, and Shiki. Delve deeper to find out everything about God Valley in One Piece. The island mysteriously vanished shortly after the God Valley Incident in One Piece The God Valley Incident marked the legendary alliance between Garp and Roger that defeated the Rocks Pirates. The crew disbanded following Xebec’s death, and the Marines hid the truth of the alliance. Because of that, no one seems to know about the island, especially since it mysteriously vanished 38 years ago. The island completely disappeared without any trace, and no one seemed to know about the cause. The World Government likely destroyed it using something akin to what they call “the Great Cleansing.” However, the series has yet to reveal the real cause behind it. The ruler of God Valley is now the Supreme Commander of God’s Knights God’s Knights are currently the greatest threat to the Revolutionary Army, whose powers are unparalleled. One Piece manga reveals that the Supreme Commander of God’s Knights, Saint Garling Figarland, is the Supreme Commander of God’s Knights. He has enough authority to sentence a Celestial Dragon to death. However, the execution of the Celestial Dragon will never be revealed to the world. Furthermore, the man who passed the judgement is the former ruler of God Valley. Since he didn’t disappear along with his island, he could be responsible for the mysterious phenomenon. Or, at the very least, Garling is sure to know something about it. Several Celestial Dragons and slaves were residing on the island During the God Valley Incident in One Piece, the island was filled with Celestial Dragons and their slaves. Garp and Roger joined hands primarily to protect those people from the Rocks Pirates. Xebec was planning to kill the World Nobles and become the ruler of the world. He didn’t know that the world already has a mysterious ruler who sits on the Empty Throne. Therefore, Xebec believed that killing the Celestial Dragons would be enough to reign the world. That said, it is still quite odd that so many World Nobles and slaves would gather in a place away from Marie Jois. Roger and Rayleigh found Shanks in a treasure chest in God Valley After the battle with the Rocks Pirates was over, Roger and Rayleigh found an infant Shanks in a treasure chest in God Valley. This is why many theories claim that Shanks is from the Figarland bloodline or he is a Celestial Dragon. Everything about Shanks’ identity is a mystery. Therefore, it is too soon to make guesses. After Roger and Rayleigh found Shanks, they took him in and raised him in their ship. Shanks spent most of his childhood as a member of the Roger Pirates before the crew was eventually disbanded.

One Piece: Every major incident of the Void Century explained – Dexerto
One Piece: Every major incident of the Void Century explained The Void Century in One Piece is a term used to describe the century-long gap in recorded and archaeological history. Here’s a list of every major incident from that era. In One Piece, almost everything is somehow connected to the Void Century that only a handful of people know about. However, since they don’t openly discuss it, it’s a mystery left for the Straw Hat Pirates to unravel. The World Government prohibits any kind of research on the Void Century, and the punishment is devastating. They didn’t hesitate to obliterate the entire Ohara island, ensuring no single survivor would remain. The people of Ohara were widely known for being scholar archaeologists capable of reading the ancient language of Poneglyphs. Considering such brutal measures, it is evident that the World Government is hiding a major secret regarding their foundation – enough to shake the entire world. Delve deeper to find out about every major incident during the Void Century in One Piece. Warning: This article contains major spoilers from the One Piece anime and manga. The promise Joy Boy made to the Mermaid Princess Joy Boy was first mentioned in the “Fish-Man Island Arc” when Robin read a Poneglyph in the Sea Forest. Apparently, it was unusual for Poneglyph, which didn’t have any historical information. Instead, it had an apology inscribed on it. It was Joy Boy’s apology to the Mermaid Princess and the people of Fish-Man Island for being unable to keep his promise – though the promise itself wasn’t mentioned in the letter. However, the promise was important enough to be recorded in Poneglyph so it won’t be lost over time. Joy Boy had promised the people of Fish-Man Island that he would one day bring their island to the surface, thus fulfilling Noah’s purpose. Although he couldn’t fulfil his promise, he ensured that someone from the future would do it on his behalf. The destruction of the Golden City Shandora Shandora is the ancient city that resided on Jaya but was later blasted up to Upper Yard by the Knock-Up Stream. It was known as the City of Gold for its incomparable wealth and prosperity. Shandora’s structures were fully covered in gold until Enel took it all to build his ark. The city was built 1100 years ago by the Shandorians, the ancestors of the Shandia. The Shandia is a tribe of people originating from the Moon and later lived on Jaya in the city of gold they built. They currently reside within Skypiea. The glory was Shandora was short-lived when it fell to the Twenty Kingdoms over 800 years ago. After the Void Century of One Piece, Shandora crumbled to ruins, but the Shandia continued to guard the ruins. The Kozuki Clan’s creation of Poneglyphs The only source of finding anything about the Void Century is through Poneglyphs that have information inscribed in the ancient script. As revealed in the “Zou Arc,” the Kozuku Clan from that era personally created the Poneglyphs to preserve important information about history. The Kozukis were a clan of skilled craftsmen who specialised in stonemasonry. The Poneglyphs were created by the oldest known ancestors near the end of the Void Century in One Piece. The clan head would learn the ancient script from their predecessors to keep the history from being lost. It continued till Kozuki Oden’s generation when he learned the ancient script from his father and predecessor, Kozuki Sukiyaki. However, Oden tragically died before teaching his son the same language. Now that it’s been revealed that Sukiyaki is still alive, he will carry on the tradition by teaching the ancient script to Momonosuke, the new Shogun of Wano. The establishment of the World Government The most notable event of the Void Century in One Piece is the establishment of the World Government. Since its establishment by an alliance of 20 separate kingdoms over 800 years ago, the World Government has been the global regime. Its influence has risen dramatically since then and now encompasses more than 170 of the world’s nations. Although it is an antagonistic organisation, it claims to stand on the side of justice. The World Government’s actions and their desperation to hide everything related to the blank century indicate that they are hiding a secret that could challenge their authority. The Great War that destroyed the ancient kingdom A revolution comes after a war with countless sacrifices. During the Void Century, twenty allied nations stood against an ancient kingdom to overthrow it. The alliance ultimately resulted in the establishment of the World Government. However, everything about the great kingdom was lost in the annals of history, even its name. Professor Clover concluded that the kingdom’s past and name were of tremendous importance and held the key to understanding the Void Century. Clover was shot before he could announce the name of the kingdom. The Great War is the most significant event of the Void Century, which ended around 722 with the fall of Shandora. The annihilation of the Lunarian race Lunarians are a race of people from the Red Line who can create fire with their bodies. The race is believed to be extinct, with the Beast Pirates’ King the sole known survivor. Long before Mary Geoise existed, the Lunarians lived on the Red Line and were revered as gods. However, they were hunted down during the Void Century. No one knows why and when that happened, as well as the Lunarians’ role in the Void Century. Even though King is the only survivor, Vegapunk used him as his test subject. The information he gained helped Vegapunk create the Seraphim from the World Government that would serve as replacements for the Seven Warlords. The major blunder made by Queen Lili The Final Saga of One Piece mentions the name of Queen Lili. She was the ruler of Arabasta during the Void Century and a member of the alliance. For unknown reasons, she never returned home after the World Government was established. As a result, the responsibility to rule Arabasta fell on her brother’s shoulders. In One Piece’s chapter 1085, Imu reveals that she made a “blunder” that caused the Poneglyphs to be scattered worldwide. They have reason to believe that Lili scattered the Poneglyphs as part of an elaborate plan. Thus, considering Lili’s actions to be a major crime against the World Government. Since Lili’s full name is Nefertari D. Lili, her actions resulted in all those bearing the moniker “D” as the “sworn enemies of gods.” The construction of the Ancient Weapon Pluton The Ancient Weapons are three weapons of mass devastation capable of wreaking havoc on the entire world. They are known as Pluton, an ancient battleship; Poseidon, a Mermaid Princess capable of communicating with and controlling Sea Kings; and Uranus, the properties of which are unknown. While the first Mermaid Princess was born during the Void Century, it was a natural phenomenon that she had such powers. On the other hand, Pluton was manually created in the city of Water 7. Because of its capabilities, it’s labelled as the “World’s Worst Battleship.” The battleship is buried deep beneath Mt. Fuji in Wano Country. It is believed to be capable of destroying entire islands in a single shot. Its blueprints were kept in Water 7 up until two years ago before Franky destroyed it, so the World Government won’t be able to recreate it. The construction of the technologically advanced Iron Giant In the “Egghead Arc” of One Piece, Vegapunk revealed that the technology during the Void Century far surpassed the current era. In fact, all his research was based on his information about that era. The technologically advanced civilisation was destroyed after the Great War. Around 900 years ago, an Iron Giant that remains inactive in Egghead was created. According to Vegapunk, the robot relies on a power source that cannot be replicated today but was common in the Void Century. Although it is unknown what that power source is, it must be massive enough to supply enough energy to control such a giant robot. For unknown reasons, the Iron Giant attacked Marie Joise over 200 years with the little energy it had left. The full extent of its abilities is unknown, as it ran out of energy before causing damage.

One Piece: Every major incident and revelation in the Reverie flashback – Dexerto
One Piece: Every major incident and revelation in the Reverie flashback CrunchyrollOne Piece’s Reverie flashback has revealed several secrets and introduced new characters while featuring the death of Arabasta’s beloved king, Nefertari Cobra. Here’s a look at every major incident and revelation in the highly anticipated flashback. The Reverie is held every four years, where the rulers of the allied nations gather to discuss the state of the world. This year’s Reverie puts an end to the Seven Warlord System, thanks to King Nefertari Cobra and King Riku, along with a majority of votes that supported them. However, when Sabo and the Revolutionary Army appear at Marie Joise, it is pretty much guaranteed that something major is about to take place. Therefore, after keeping fans in the dark for several years, Oda finally reveals everything that happened during the Reverie. One Piece manga concludes its Reverie flashback with jaw-dropping secrets about the Void Century. Fans learn the truth behind Nefertari Cobra’s death. On top of that, the series finally comes a step closer to revealing the secrets of the Void Century. The successful rescue of Kuma from Pangea Castle One of the main reasons the Revolutionary Army infiltrated Marie Jois was to rescue their comrade, Bartholomew Kuma. Although Kuma has lost all his humanity and is simply a living machine, his friends still risk their lives to save him from slavery. Jewelry Bonney, a member of the Worst Generation, also infiltrates Marie Jois in hopes of saving her father. Even facing powerful opponents such as Fujitora, the Revolutionary Army successfully brought Kuma back to their base, which is nothing short of marvellous. Queen Lili and her blunder from 800 years ago The most crucial revelation of the Reverie flashback in One Piece is the introduction of Queen Lili. She was the ruler of Arabasta during the Void Century and one of the members of the twenty allied nations. However, she never made it home after the establishment of the World Government. Furthermore, all records of her existence were removed from history. When Nefertari Cobra inquires about this, he sees Imu sitting on the throne and answering his questions. Imu mentioned a blunder she committed, due to which all the Poneglyphs got scattered across the world. Imu also believes that she did that as part of an elaborate plan. The truth behind the secret name “D” and new additions to the family Nefertari Cobra reveals that Queen Lili’s full name is Nefertari D. Lili. Because of her blunder, all those bearing the secret name “D” are considered “sworn enemies of the gods.” After Queen Lili’s disappearance, the responsibility to rule Arabasta fell on her brother’s shoulders. Therefore Nefertari Cobra and Princess Vivi are descendants of Lili’s brothers. Nonetheless, they both have the moniker D, the same as Luffy. Before taking his last breath, Nefertari Cobra requests Sabo to let Vivi and Luffy know the truth about their name. Nefertari Cobra’s death and Sabo’s attempt to save him After all those speculations regarding Nefertari Cobra’s death and Sabo’s involvement, One Piece’s Reverie flashback reveals everything about it. As it turns out, Nefertari Cobra witnessed the world’s greatest taboo, a ruler sitting on the Empty Throne. Therefore, Gorosei and Imu wouldn’t let him live even if they answered some of his questions. When Nefertari Cobra revealed Lili’s full name, a mysterious shadow attacked him. Sabo entered the room when he realized Nefertari Cobra’s life was in danger. God’s Knights and their Commander from the Figarland family While talking about the Reverie flashback in One Piece, Dragon, Sabo, and Ivankov discuss how God’s Knights will be a real challenge during their final war against the World Government. After that, the series reveals the identity of the Supreme Commander of God’s Knights, Saint Garling Figarland. He is the former king of God Valley, who has even more authority than Celestial Dragons since he sentenced one to death. The Figarland family was mentioned in One Piece Film: Red. They captured Uta because they believed her to be from that bloodline since she was Shanks’ daughter. The real names of Imu and Gorosei Gorosei and Imu’s names were one of the series’ biggest mysteries. Gorosei translates to the “Five Elder Planets.” It was previously translated as “Five Elder Stars”, and each member is referred to as a “Warrior God.” One Piece Reverie flashback reveals that their names are Saint Jay Garcia Saturn, Saint Markus Mars, Ethan Baron V. Nusjuro, Shepard Ju Peter, and Topman Valcurie. Furthermore, Ivankov mentioned the name of Saint Imu of House Nerona, whose name resembles the mysterious ruler of the world. Ivankov speculates that the world’s ruler is none other than an immortal being who has been alive since the Void Century and has been granted eternal youth because of the Ope Ope no Mi. The truth behind the destruction of the Lulusia Kingdom One Piece’s Reverie flashback also revealed the weapon that caused Lulusia Kingdom’s destruction. Imu mentioned testing Vegapunk’s invented “Mother Flame.” They also said Lulusia would be an ideal place to test since it’s in close proximity. Gorosei supports their decision since Lulusia is a rebel country. Sabo explained that before the attack, an enormous shadow covered the sky and that something pitch black was flying above the clouds.

One Piece: Every character from the Void Century explained – Dexerto
One Piece: Every character from the Void Century explained The Void Century in One Piece is a term used to describe the century-long gap in recorded and archaeological history. Here’s a list of every known character from the Void Century. In One Piece, almost everything surrounds the Void Century that only a handful of people know about. However, since they don’t openly discuss it, it’s a mystery left for the Straw Hats to solve. It is forbidden to study anything related to the Void Century, and the punishment is brutal. The World Government didn’t hesitate to obliterate the entire island of Ohara. It was home to several renowned archaeologists capable of reading the ancient language of Poneglyphs. Considering such brutal measures, the World Government is hiding a major secret regarding their foundation, something big enough to shake the entire world. Delve deeper to find out about every known character who lived during the Void Century. Toki transcended the boundaries of time to witness a certain event Kozuki Toki, born in the noble clan of Wano called Amatsuki, had the power of the Time-Time Fruit. For some reason, the people from her era were aware of a certain event that would change the world completely. Therefore, she jumped through centuries several times until she landed in Oden’s era. After meeting him and beginning her journey with the Whitebeard Pirates, Toki started her family with Oden. After learning the truth about the world, Oden revealed that what Toki is waiting for will happen 20 years from that time. However, she abandoned her dream of witnessing that event and settled with Oden in Wano. Toki followed her husband in the afterlife after Orochi and Kaido overtook Wano. Despite being born in Wano, Toki knew nothing about her homeland. However, she requested Oden and Whitebeard to take her to Wano – meaning that she knows that the event will take place in Wano. The first Joy Boy in One Piece lived during the Void Century Joy Boy was first introduced in the “Fish-Man Island Arc” when Robin read a Poneglyph consisting of his letter to the Mermaid Princess. It was an apology for being unable to keep his promise – though the promise itself wasn’t mentioned in the letter. As an important figure of the Void Century, Joy Boy is one of the most mysterious characters of One Piece. After Luffy awakened his devil fruit, it was revealed that Joy Boy isn’t a name but a title. The first Joy Boy was from the Void Century when a major change happened in the world. Whereas the second Joy Boy is Monkey D. Luffy, the prophesized King, who is destined to be at the center of a great event that will change the world completely once again. Zunesha was born years before the Void Century in One Piece Zunesha is the oldest creature introduced in One Piece, with its lifetime predating even the Void Century. It is a Naitamie-Norida elephant, a species of gigantic elephant whose legs stretch down all the way to the ocean floor. As someone who’s lived for over a millennium, Zunesha had a major role in the Void Century. It was Joy Boy’s comrade, and the two had a special bond at the time. Zunesha committed a grave crime for unknown reasons and was punished for walking for eternity. Since then, it has been walking continuously but never once reached its destination. Queen Lili was the ruler of Arabasta during that era In One Piece chapter 1084, Nefertari Cobra speaks with Gorosei about the history of the World Government during the Void Century. He even reveals the name of Queen Lili, the ruler of Arabasta, during that era. She was the only ruler among the twenty allied nations who refused to leave her Kingdom at someone else’s hands. This is why the Nefertari Family continues to rule Arabasta even today. However, for some reason, Lili never made it back home, and the responsibility to rule Arabasta fell on her brother’s shoulders. When Gorosei refused to answer anything related to her, Cobra further asked about the meaning of “Will of D.” He claimed that Queen Lili penned one letter, but even the historical records of his Kingdom had no knowledge of it. Additionally, when Nefertari Cobra first saw Im sitting on the Empty Throne, the latter muttered Lilli’s name. This proved that the mysterious ruler of the world and the former Queen of Arabasta had some connection. Imu has been ruling the world since the Void Century One Piece’s Reverie flashback revealed many secrets regarding the Void Century, including the true identity of Imu. Their existence is the world’s biggest taboo since they sit on the Empty Throne which represents peace among nations. There have been several speculations about their identity before, but no one would have imagined that they would turn out to be one of the rulers from the twenty allied nations, just like Queen Lili. In One Piece chapter 1086, Ivankov reveals that Imu’s full name is likely to be Saint Imu of House Nerona. The reason that Imu has been living for all these centuries has not been revealed in the series. However, Ivankov speculates that a “certain power” that grants eternal youth could be behind Imu’s immortality. Although Ivankov didn’t specifically name it, fans know that in the entirety of One Piece, only the Op-Op fruit has such ability. One Piece can currently be streamed on Crunchyroll.

The Wano Country Saga is one of the most iconic in the entire One Piece series. We see some of the best moments and animation ever. Each Straw Hat Pirate has improved by leaps and bounds. Whether it’s Robin, Zoro, Sanji, or anyone else, every member shined during their fights. Of course, the highlight of the Saga was Luffy’s Gear 5. As one of the best moments in Shonen history, it made headlines for weeks, and we still have one more episode to go before the fight officially concludes. However, the Wano Country Saga will continue for a few more episodes, and there will be a lot more exciting moments before One Piece transitions into the Final Saga. We delve deeper to find out the expected episode schedule till the Wano Saga finale in One Piece below. One Piece Wano Saga episode schedule till the finale Since Episode 1078 has already aired, let’s check out the release date schedule until Episode 1085. 15 October – Episode 1079 – 22 October – Episode 1080 – 29 October – Episode 1081 – 5 November – Episode 1082 – 12 November – Episode 1083 – 19 November – Episode 1084 – 26 November – Episode 1085 – Episode 1079 is delayed by a week. We will update this space if there are any more delays before the Wano Saga Finale. Also, note that there’s a chance that the Final Saga may not begin right away because of filler episodes. What time do One Piece episodes air? One Piece episodes air at 9:30am JST. The episode will be available to stream across various time zones as soon as it’s released in Japan. You can find your time zone below: 7:00 pm PT – 9:00 pm Central Time – 10:00 pm Eastern Time Zone – 3:00 am UK – 7:30 am India Standard Time – 11:30 am Australia – What will happen in the Wano Saga finale? After the battle, Wano will be free from the clutches of Kaido and Orochi. However, the long battle has certainly taken a toll on the pirates. Due to countless injuries, they need to rest for a few days. Sadly, things just don’t end there as another enemy infiltrates Wano. One Piece introduces the Aramaki, better known as Admiral Ryokugyu. He will enter Wano to capture the injured Straw Hat Pirates but will be stopped by Shanks. Even from miles away, Shanks manages to intimidate the Admiral and forces him to leave Wano using his Conqueror’s Haki. But before leaving, Aramaki creates a lot of trouble, and fights Yamato and Momo. One Piece opening 25 shows a brief glimpse of his devil fruit powers. We still don’t know much about him, but he’d be an exceptionally strong fighter if he climbed to the ranks of an Admiral.

One Piece episode breaks Demon Slayer Season 4 finale’s record – Dexerto
One Piece episode breaks Demon Slayer Season 4 finale’s record Eiichiro Oda/Toei AnimationThe newly released One Piece Episode 1112 has already surpassed Demon Slayer Season 4 finale’s ratings. One Piece fans have waiting for the Shanks vs. Kid episode for a long time. Not only is this a major incident in the story but it’s also the first time we see Shanks fight on-screen. Given the intrigue around Shanks’ character, it makes sense everyone would be looking forward to this. Toei Animation knew this, too, and spared no effort in making this fight as epic as fans hoped. After delays and teasers hyping the event, One Piece Episode 1112 was finally released on July 14, more than one year after its source material: Chapter 1079. And fans unanimously agree it was worth the wait. Titled ‘Clash! Shanks vs. Eustass Kid’, the episode sees the Kid Pirates, led by Eustass Kid, challenging the Red-Haired Pirates on Elbaf. This is not the first time the crews clashed; Kid’s previous attempt cost him his arm. But unlike the last time, Shanks himself takes care of the problem in Episode 1112. It leads to a spectacular one-sided battle as Shanks overwhelms his opponent from the beginning and ends it all with his Divine Departure. Similarly, the Kid Pirates don’t stand a chance against the Yonko’s crew and the giants. Spectacularly animated and beautifully directed, the new episode climbed up the charts the moment it arrived. Earning a startling 9.9 rating on IMDb, it left many high-ranking anime episodes behind, even the Demon Slayer Season 4 finale. Said finale, titled ‘The Hashira Unite’, is the highest-rated episode of the anime show. Featuring Muzan’s long-anticipated encounter with Kagaya Ubuyashiki and the subsequent clash against the Hashira, it has a 9.8 rating and is one of the best episodes of 2024. Now it’s been dethroned by One Piece Episode 1112, proving the classic anime’s worldwide popularity once again. What’s more, the beloved shonen anime also holds the third spot on the list, with Episode 1100 claiming a 9.7 rating. With so many exciting events ahead in the Egghead Arc, we can expect the One Piece anime to also dominate the second half of 2024 with more amazing episodes. As for Demon Slayer, it’s expected to break all kinds of box office records once the Infinity Castle movies hit theaters.

One Piece Episode 1118 keeps one mystery around Imu that nobody can solve – Dexerto
One Piece Episode 1118 keeps one mystery around Imu that nobody can solve CrunchyrollOne Piece covered Imu’s first words in the latest episode of the anime, but there’s still a question around the character’s voice leaving people stunned. One Piece Episode 1118 contains an elusive appearance from Imu, the leader of the World Government and main baddie for the Final Saga. They come in to cap off the Egghead Arc, taking us toward the Elbaf Arc, and in typical Eiichiro Oda fashion, the villain is drenched in mystery. They rarely show up, they’re dressed in a veil the whole time, and until now, we’ve never heard them speak. Episode 1118 gave us Imu’s first words, but One Piece isn’t making it that easy, because we still don’t know who voices them. In the credits, Imu’s credited as ‘???’ in Japanese, keeping yet more of their identity out of public knowledge. The general belief is that this is to prevent anyone ascribing gender to the character, with an added benefit of preventing their performer from spoiling anything. This particular reveal has only made some viewers more intrigued. “Best decision by Toei,” one reply on X/Twitter states. Others are less excited. “I can’t w these guys edging us bruh,” says another response. “It’s always annoying,” responds another fan. There’s precedent for this in the franchise, since Kaido’s voice actor from a flashback in Episode 630 was kept under wraps as well. You’d be forgiven for forgetting that though, since it’s almost 500 episodes ago by this point. There are some theories going around; Iemasa Kayumi, who voiced Homunculus in Fullmetal Alchemist, is one performer viewers are pointing to. Yumi Uchiyama, the voice of Puck in Re:Zero, is in contention as well. Until you see their name in the credits, believe nothing! Check out our guide on Chapter 1125 to see what’s going on in the manga, and we have a rundown of The One Piece, Netflix’s anime reboot, as well.

One Piece Episode 1114 will finally unveil Garp’s ultimate technique – Dexerto
One Piece Episode 1114 will finally unveil Garp’s ultimate technique Eiichiro Oda/Toei AnimationGarp will finally unleash his ultimate technique, Galaxy Impact, in One Piece Episode 1114, and it has fans beyond excited. One Piece followed a lot of plot points in the Egghead Arc. While the main focus is the Straw Hat Pirates and their adventure on the future island, we also find out about King Nefertari Cobra’s death through Sabo’s flashback and see Garp and the SWORDS rescue Koby on Hachinosu. Garp and his team’s journey to the pirate island leads to a grand battle between them and the Blackbeard Pirates (those who are present on the island). And that includes Kuzan, former Admiral of the Marines, who’s now a fleet captain in the pirate crew. But before we see the highly anticipated clash between Garp and him, we see the old Vice-Admiral wreaking havoc on the island the moment he arrives. With an island full of notorious pirates, Garp unleashes Galaxy Impact, leaving everything around him in ruins. Galaxy Impact is Garp’s strongest technique revealed so far. In this technique, he imbues Conqueror’s Haki to his frightening physical strength, creating a punch so strong that it can split the ground in two. One Piece Episode 1114 is finally adapting this iconic moment from the manga. The episode, titled ‘For the sake of the protégé! The Fist of Vice-Admiral Garp!’, will be released on August 4, 2024. Needless to say, fans are hyped to see this scene animated. And they have very high expectations, given this scene’s importance and the quality of animation Toei has been demonstrating recently. A good example is the widely beloved Shanks vs. Kid episode. “Garp ‘bout to unleash the craziest haki punch on 1080p,” wrote one user on X/Twitter, joined by another who said, “Oh, Toei gonna go crazy with this one.” “I can’t wait for this episode,” commented a third, while a fourth added, “MY KING GARP IS FINALLY HERE!” August 4 is going to be an exciting day for the series’ fans. Not only will One Piece Episode 1114 be released that day but Chapter 1122 is also coming back on the same day. Until then, learn more about the pirate world with our guides on the Void Century, Bonney’s Devil Fruit, and Joyboy’s history. You can also find out if Bonney will join the Straw Hat Pirates.

One Piece Episode 1110 has fans torn over Sanji vs S-Shark – Dexerto
One Piece Episode 1110 has fans torn over Sanji vs S-Shark CrunchyrollOne Piece Episode 1110 features the Sanji vs. S-Shark scene, which again divides the fandom over the animation, as some call out Toei’s bias. Toei Animation Studio finds itself amid controversy yet again as One Piece Episode 1110 divides the fandom in two over the Sanji vs. S-Shark fight. The community is often divided over Toei’s special treatment of Zoro, while Sanji’s scenes don’t always get justice. However, this time, the scene was still alright and didn’t deviate from the manga as it did in Episode 1105. Nonetheless, fans are still debating over the episode after seeing one of the best fight scenes in Egghead Arc only a week ago. The fight between Zoro and S-Hawk was stretched a lot, including some incredible fight choreography and amazing visuals. A renowned animator, Vincent Chansard, worked in the Zoro vs S-Hawk scene. Another tenured animator, Henry Thurlow, was involved in the episode but didn’t contribute to the Sanji scene. One fan shares, “No, but actually, if Toei put the same effort they do with Zoro scenes in Sanji scenes, then more people would like Sanji, but they keep setting him up.” “They hand Sanji hype panels off to the interns and call Vincent and the top animators for the Zoro filler. I thought Sanji fans were just complaining, but I get it now,” says another. Another fan states, “This scene was better than in Manga. The only bad thing about it was they didn’t show the impact of Sanjis’s strike on S-Shark; it looked like he tanked it like it wasn’t.” While most fans are pointing out the clear bias yet again, many also say the episode was OK. While the overall episode wasn’t like the Zoro vs S-Hawk one, Toei didn’t downplay Sanji in any way. “At least they didn’t downplay him like usual. This is good enough,” shares one fan.

One Piece Episode 1108 sparks Shanks vs Mihawk argument among fans – Dexerto
One Piece Episode 1108 sparks Shanks vs Mihawk argument among fans CrunchyrollThe topic of Shanks vs Mihwak has always been a source of chaos among One Piece fans, as both sides refuse to accept their favorite character is weaker. One Piece Episode 1108 again sparks this popular debut. Shanks and Mihwak are both popular characters in One Piece. They have a good relationship as rivals who respect each other. About 12 years before the current timeline, the two crossed swords for some reason. Around that time, Shanks had both arms, for it’s easy to assume he was at his full strength. Mihawk, on the other hand, holds the title of the world’s strongest swordsman. While both characters are top-tier in terms of strength, their fans always debate over who is better. They’re both full of mysteries, and we still don’t know the total extent of their powers. Furthermore, the fight between them was off-screen, and there was no clear victor. In an extra section of One Piece Episode 1108, the anime once again mentions that the fight between Shanks and Mihawk was unsettled. Hence, this episode sparks another argument over who is stronger. While the story hasn’t confirmed who among them is stronger, it is true that the fight was never settled between them for some unknown reason. One comment reads, “Yeah, and then Shanks lost his arm and became weaker, insulting Mihawk’s pride as a swordsman, hence why he refuses to fight him. I’m pretty sure most of us knew this was how it went.” Most fans didn’t agree with this statement because One Piece mentioned that losing an arm didn’t make Shanks any weaker. One fan says, “Nowhere at this point has it ever said that he got weaker. Do you think a weaker version of Shanks became a Yonko, the same as Kaido, Whitebear, and Big Mom? Cope about it.” “It always seemed like they never got to settle their duel, but of course, it’s never gonna happen again due to Shanks losing his arm,” says another. You can check out the release date and possible spoilers for One Piece Chapter 1117.

Why isn’t there One Piece Episode 1097 this week? CrunchyrollOne Piece Episode 1097 will feature Dragon’s and Vegapunk’s past – but why isn’t it on this week? Here’s what you need to know. One Piece anime is currently featuring the Egghead Arc of the Final Saga. The arc debuted in January 2024 and has featured a lot of thrilling moments already. The recent episode confirms that Jaguar D. Saul is still alive and is currently in hiding. He’s researching Ohara’s discoveries about the Great Kingdom.

Luffy and the others are shocked and excited to see Vegapunk. One Piece Episode 1097 will shed light on Dragon’s and Vegapunk’s past and a major truth about the Revolutionary Army. However, the episode has been delayed. Why One Piece Episode 1097 has been delayed One Piece Episode 1097 will officially air on March 17.

Robin understands that the time period Shaka is talking about is, in fact, the mysterious Void Century.

The World Government takes severe measures to ensure that the truth about the forbidden kingdom won’t come to light. The Vegapunk Satellite also confirms that despite the tragedy, the “Will of Ohara” still lives. The World Government destroyed the island and the people, but they couldn’t destroy their hard work. The center of the lake in Ohara was full of research papers that the giants were fishing out. That information is valuable to uncovering the major truth about the world’s true history. Saul, along with the rest of the giants, is researching the documents in hopes of finding the truth. Robin finds out that her dear friend, whom she has missed all this time, is alive and well. Vegapunk also makes a dramatic debut; this time, it’s his real body.

When she asks for confirmation, Shaka questions back by asking her how much she knows about it. Usopp expresses his concern for Robin, saying it might be difficult for her to talk about this after what happened to Ohara 22 years ago. However, Shaka says it is because of Ohara’s research that they know so much about the technology of that kingdom. He also reveals that the World Government erased everything about the ancient kingdom so that their ideals could not be passed down. Anyone who knows anything about the kingdom will be eliminated. Sanji and the others are furious after finding out that this information will give the World Government another reason to hunt them down. However, when Robin asks how Shaka knows so much about Ohara, he says, “The Will of Ohara still lives.” Several months after the tragic Ohara Incident, Vegapunk visited the island to pay respects to his friend Professor Clover. There, he discovered that the center of the lake was full of research and that the people of Ohara gave up their lives to protect their legacy. Ignorant soldiers may not know about the value of those papers, but the knowledge they sought to destroy still remains. In the end, Ohara won.

Dragon, who is infuriated by the tragedy of Ohara and the loss of his friend, Professor Clover. He swears to make an army that will fight the World Government.

Why isn’t there One Piece Episode 1093 this week? – Dexerto
Why isn’t there One Piece Episode 1093 this week? CrunchyrollOne Piece Episode 1093 will feature the battle between Law and Blackbeard – but the episode has been delayed. One Piece anime recently began the Egghead arc, and it’s about to feature one of the most shocking fights of the series: a battle between Trafalgar Law and Blackbeard. After defeating Kaido, Luffy and Law go their separate ways. While Luffy ends up on Egghead, Law encounters the most dangerous and ruthless pirate in the New World. The recent episode features Law and Blackbeard coming face to face, but manga fans know that there’s more to come. The upcoming episode will feature one of the biggest fights in the New World. However, One Piece Episode 1093 has been delayed since the recent episode doesn’t show a preview. Delve deeper to find out the reason. Why One Piece Episode 1093 has been delayed One Piece Episode 1093 will officially air on February 11. Although there has been no official announcement, the delay is because of the animation studio. Since there’s a recap episode broadcasting next week, it means that there isn’t any other programming lined up for that time slot. A recap episode centering on Trafalgar Law will be broadcast on February 4. The series often airs recaps every few weeks to stay a little behind the manga. This helps them have enough material to adapt in the long run and avoid fillers altogether. Although One Piece has been airing continuously since 1999, it has way less fillers compared to other long-running series. Before, the recaps were about Luffy’s adventures from Bartolomeo’s lens. This time, the series will hype up fans with Law’s biggest feats ever since his introduction in the Sabaody Saga and then his alliance with Luffy in Punk Hazard. Law vs Blackbeard is going to be an intense battle between the powerful pirates. While Blackbeard is one of the most dangerous pirates in the New World, Law has just made a name for himself after the battle in Wano. Trafalgar Law now has a bounty of 3 billion berries, while Blackbeard’s bounty is a little over 3.9 billion. But is it enough to determine the victor between these two? Heart Pirates is infamous for having rather weaker crew members, but the Blackbeard Pirates are some of the most dangerous criminals in the entire world. Blackbeard has been targeting powerful devil fruit users for two years, so it’s clear he has the upper hand against fans’ beloved Trafalgar Law.

They reveal that Oden walked around the country before setting out to sea, so they will do the same. On the other hand, Momonosuke is both angry and upset over Luffy and his crew leaving Wano without bidding him farewell. Momo reminisces about his chaotic interactions with Luffy while he’s taking Yamato and the others to see the Straw Hats off before they leave the borders. Luckily, they arrive just in time before they complain about Luffy’s actions. Everyone gets emotional over it when Luffy gives a Straw Hat flag to Momo. Luffy considers Momo, a little brother and asks him to raise the flag when times are hard. This means Luffy, a Yonko, has declared Wano his territory, and anyone who threatens the safety of the country will be making an enemy out of a Yonko’s crew. Watching his friends leave, Momonosuke swears that he will surpass his father. However, the emotional farewell soon changes into a chaotic argument between Luffy, Law, and Kid as they all race to leave the country first. The Wano Saga ends with Momonosuke asking about a perfect location to raise the Straw Hats’ flag.

One Piece Episode 1084 to feature an anime-only scene – Dexerto
One Piece Episode 1084 to feature an anime-only scene CrunchyrollWhenever an anime teases an original scene, no fan can keep hold of their excitement, especially the ones who are familiar with every tiny detail of the source material. As per a recent leak, the upcoming episode of One Piece will feature an anime-only scene, and here’s everything you should know about it. After four years, One Piece bid farewell to Wano Arc in Episode 1083. Now, every fan awaits the debut of the Eggland Arc, as it will bring the genius scientist Vegapunk back into the picture. However, that is not going to happen until Episode 1085. In the 1083rd episode of the popular anime series, we saw several significant characters moving on after the intense battle in Wano. So, we expect the next episode, which will be released this weekend, will continue the transition from Wano to Eggland. It’s evident that the 1084th episode of One Piece will be nothing short of spectacular, but the news of an anime-only scene is definitely adding to the excitement. One Piece Episode 1084 will have a surprise for Zoro fans From a recent leak on social media, we learned that One Piece Episode 1084 will feature a scene that is nowhere in the pages of the manga. It will incorporate the green-haired swordsman Zoro and Hiyori. Nothing more is known about the scene except that our beloved Zoro is getting an anime-only scene; for now, this is enough to make us go crazy for the upcoming episode. Fans have already started talking about the scene’s subject, and X/Twitter is flooded with several speculations. However, it’s hard to predict what this scene will feature and how impactful it’ll be for the fans. A significant part of the fandom wanted the Wano Arc to allow Zoro to get a weighted role, so they wanted to see him going to Ryuma’s grave and get some worthy dialogue that could at least give him the limelight he deserves. That didn’t happen for some reason, but fortunately, Zoro fans can expect something else in the next episode. Besides the anime-only scene, the forthcoming episode will reveal some secrets of the Cross Guild organization and how Buggy relates to it. We can also expect the main characters to proceed toward their next adventure and several key characters to get left behind. Do not miss to watch One Piece Episode 1084 on Crunchyroll on November 19, 2023. How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023 Most, if not all, of these animes can be watched on the streaming service Crunchyroll.

Later, Momo looks for Zoro to learn swordsmanship, but he finds out the Straw Hats are already leaving. Luffy, Kid, and Law argue over the next destination since they don’t want to go in the same direction.

Killer says something about finding “that” guy, and Kid addresses him as “the man marked by flames.” The series has yet to reveal who that man is.

In a recent episode, as the world is shocked by Luffy’s new bounty and the announcement of two new Yonkos, Shanks reminisces about his brief time with kid Luffy in Foosha Village. He appears proud of how far Luffy has come in such a short time. Furthermore, he also declares his intention to claim One Piece.

The upcoming episode will feature the Akayaza Nine, Yamato, and Momonosuke struggling to defeat the Admiral, but they soon get help from an unexpected ally.

The Red-Haired’s Imperial Rage.” The episode will continue with the fight against Ryokugyu. As the fighters struggle against the force of nature, Kozuki Sukiyaki leads Robin and Law inside his secret chamber. He reveals that a “different” Wano was sunk underwater about 800 years ago. There was once a Wano Country built around an enormous Fuji mountain. However, at some point, massive walls grew around the island, and rainwater filled inside. People abandoned the flooded regions and instead created a new country on the new land at the side of the mountain. That new land is the Wano as we know it today. There’s also a Road Poneglyph in the chamber. He also reveals that the ancient weapon Pluton lies at the bottom of the real Wano. The walls must be torn apart to retrieve it, which is the literal meaning of “opening up Wano’s borders.” The scene again shifts back to the fight as the Admiral is shocked by the mighty Conqueror’s Haki directed towards him. He recognizes it belongs to Shanks as the duo converses from miles away. Shanks is incredibly annoyed at Ryokugyu taking advantage of the situation and attacking Wano when everyone is still injured from the battle. Shanks questions him if he’s that afraid of the “new era.” In response, the Admiral admits defeat and leaves the country. Luffy, Sanji, Zoro, and Jinbe are hanging out together. Jinbe wonders who that monstrous Haki could belong to, and Luffy simply replies by saying it reminds him of a familiar face.

As the little kid he once saved became a Yonko, Shanks can’t help but reminisce about his short time at the Foosha Village. No doubt, he is proud of how far Luffy has come in such a short time. As the crew suggests meeting up with Luffy, Shanks denies it as they have more pressing matters at hand. Bartolomeo, Luffy’s biggest fan, is burning up the Red Hair Pirates’ flags and replacing them with the Straw Hats’ ones. Shanks says that it’s now time to make a move and claim the “One Piece.” While all of this is going on, the entire world is shaken by the death of Nefertari Cobra. The World Government is claiming Sabo, the second in command of the Revolutionary Army. The revolutionists celebrate Cobra’s death and call Sabo the “Flame Emperor.” Because the Nefertari family was one of the 20 allied Kingdoms during the establishment of the World Government, Cobra’s death could be taken as a direct challenge against them. No doubt, the world is changing, and the catalyst is everything that transpired in Reverie.

One Piece Episode 1066 references Dragon Ball Z’s most endearing scenes – Dexerto
One Piece Episode 1066 references Dragon Ball Z’s most endearing scenes CrunchyrollTo build a story as expansive as One Piece, there need to be several inspirations, and it seems Dragon Ball Z is one of them. Here’s how One Piece Episode 1066 references the most lovely scene from Dragon Ball Z. One Piece Episode 1066 primarily focuses on the battle between Big Mom and Law, and Kid refuses to give up despite countless injuries. However, it also features Kozuki Momonosuke’s struggle to lift Onigashima in his dragon form. While Momo reminisces about his family, One Piece references a popular scene from Dragon Ball Z in the most emotional way possible. The tragic story of the Kozuki family is what sets the premise of the “Wano Country Saga.” As popular franchises, One Piece and Dragon Ball Z both have a global fanbase with talks of collaboration between the two. Although collaboration may be difficult, One Piece realizes the dream of Dragon Ball Z in Episode 1066. One Piece Episode 1066 references Dragon Ball Z scenes While Momo remembers his time with his family, the series features Oden and Toki playing with Hiyori. These three scenes are exactly similar to Dragon Ball Z, with a few changes in characters. Shonen fans easily draw a connection between the two as they share their nostalgia on social media platforms. In the first shot, the backside of Kozuki Oden’s back is shown where he suddenly faces the front, and a young Hiyori appears from underneath his arm. This is similar to how Goku and Gohan interact. The second shot is Toki encouraging Hiyori while the child spins a ball with an umbrella. It reminds fans of the first Dragon Ball anime, where Goku does the stunt while Oolong throws more Dragon Balls along his way. Lastly, the scene where Hiyori runs toward Oden, who lifts her up, is again similar to Goku and Gohan. However, the only difference is that Toki is watching them happily at the back. Dragon Ball Z inspired the creator of One Piece One of Oda’s biggest inspirations for One Piece was Dragon Ball Z, as fans can see the influence not only in the art style but also in some of the arcs, character personalities, and relationships as well. The pacing and adventures in One Piece draw homage to Dragon Ball in a variety of ways. The most evident is Monkey D. Luffy of the Straw Hat Pirates’ resemblance to the plucky protagonist, Goku. Both Goku and Luffy have certain aims and aspirations of greater strength, but they also have tremendous appetites that are sometimes more astounding than their raw strength and transformations. One Piece and Dragon Ball Z can currently be streamed on Crunchyroll.

The Elbaf Arc explained: What’s next for One Piece? – Dexerto
The Elbaf Arc explained: What’s next for One Piece? CrunchyrollAs the Straw Hat Pirates and Giants set sail to Elbaf, One Piece is closer to the Elbaf Arc than ever. So, here’s everything you can expect from the upcoming arc. The Final Saga of One Piece begins with the futuristic Egghead Island where Vegapunk‘s laboratory is located. As soon as everyone found out the Marines were after Vegapunk, the crew decided to escape to Elbaf. However, several Marines intervened, including an Admiral followed by Gorosei, putting their plans on hold. The situation went from bad to worse as they fought some of the most powerful villains ever. As a result, Vegapunk loses his life, but Chapter 1123 reveals it’s part of his plan. After sending Gorosei back to Mariejois, the crew set off to Elbaf along with the Giants. Fans have been anticipating the upcoming arc since the Little Garden Arc of Arabasta, and we’ve broken down what’s coming. Is there a release date for One Piece Elbaf Arc? So far, there’s no official release date for One Piece Elbaf Arc. Although the Straw Hats set sail in Chapter 1123, there are still a few weeks before they land in Elbaf. Before the arc officially begins, we still have to learn more about the statuses of Kizaru and Saturn. Additionally, the crew will most likely have new bounties after this. In May 2024, Shonen Jump’s official website revealed that the One Piece character figures with Elbaf design will be released in November 2024. Hence, it confirms the upcoming arc will begin by November or before that. What will happen in Elbaf Arc? A new arc paves the path for new adventures. Elbaf is going to be a massive arc, which will unravel a lot of mysteries. Here are a few events that will likely take place in Elbaf Arc: Robin’s reunion with Saul Robin finds out in Egghead Arc that Saul is still alive and is currently staying in Elbaf. He ensured Ohara’s research wouldn’t go to waste and is currently studying the Poneglyphs. Since Vegapunk didn’t reveal all the information about the Void Century, Saul may have discovered a few more things. Nika lore Nika is the name of a mythical warrior revered as the Sun God by slaves since ancient times. His existence is tied to Elbaf mythology. Nika’s existence is only recorded in ancient texts but most of them have been destroyed by now. His legend was passed down among the Buccaneers but the race is almost entirely extinct. However, the warriors of Elbaf know more about the fabled warrior and they will likely reveal everything to the crew. The Straw Hats power-up Elbaf is the land of Usopp’s dreams. Ever since he met Dorry and Brogy in Little Garden, he wanted to visit the land of honorable warriors. After all, Usopp’s biggest dream is to be a brave warrior of the sea. It’s possible he will learn new things during the arc which will help him improve his overall powers. Furthermore, the crew gets new powers in almost every arc. Since Elbaf is the land of warriors, we might have some amazing Straw Hat moments waiting for us. Prince Loki introduction So far, the only thing we know about Prince Loki is that he proposed to Lola but got rejected. Big Mom wanted an alliance with the Giants but after her daughter rejected the Prince and ran away, the Giants became her enemy. One Piece has only revealed his silhouette. Additionally, fans will learn more about the royal family and whether or not they’re potential allies or enemies. Revealing the fate of Kid Pirates After they suffer a crushing defeat against Shanks, the crew’s status is unknown. Shanks uses Divine Departure to defeat Kid and Killer and knock them unconscious. The rest of the crew appears to drown in the sea after Dorry and Brogy land a final blow. Although their chances of survival are slim, the series has yet to confirm their death. One Piece manga will soon begin a new arc, but before that, it revealed Shanks’ true strength.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda was “itching to draw” Joyboy almost 20 years ago – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda was “itching to draw” Joyboy almost 20 years ago CrunchyrollOne Piece has only just revealed Joyboy’s origins, but Eiichiro Oda may have been waiting to draw him for close to two decades. One Piece manga is currently in the Egghead Arc, recently revealing Vegapunk’s shocking message. It is the first arc of the Final Saga, and has consistently dropped important pieces of lore. Joyboy, for instance, was first mentioned in the Fish-Man Island Arc, but little was known about him until now. Warning: Spoilers ahead! In his broadcast, Vegapunk promises to share the truth about the world. He starts by revealing that the world will sink into the future. This prediction is based on the fact that Mother Flame destroyed the Lulusia Kingdom, raising the sea level by one meter. The genius scientist also reveals that he doesn’t know everything about the Void Century. He talks about Nika and Joyboy’s origins. Nika, the legendary Warrior of Liberation, is from Elbaf, the kingdom of Giants. Meanwhile, the first Joyboy was a young man from the ancient kingdom. He had the power to stretch his body like Nika. Additionally, Joyboy was the first pirate in history. Although Oda has only recently revealed Joyboy’s origins, he hasn’t revealed his face yet. According to an interview in 2007, Oda shared his thoughts about drawing a pirate with an eyepatch. He stated: “A pirate with an eye patch will appear in the final phase of One Piece. I’m itching to draw that character as soon as possible. Maybe people have a preconception that many pirates wear eye patches, but actually, I’ve never drawn any pirates with eye patches.” Since Oda has just revealed Joyboy was also a pirate, there’s a possibility he will have the eye patch. Likewise, Joyboy is a big part of the Final Saga, just as Oda mentions here, and he’s becoming increasingly crucial. However, nothing is certain as of yet, since Oda has yet to reveal Rocks’ face as well, so we’ll have to wait for more confirmation. One Piece manga is on another hiatus after Chapter 1114.

Eiichiro Oda reveals the truth behind the One Piece treasure – Dexerto
Eiichiro Oda reveals the truth behind the One Piece treasure CrunchyrollAmong the countless mysteries surrounding the world of One Piece, the biggest one is the legendary treasure that all pirates are after. However, Eiichiro Oda has already revealed a lot about it. One Piece is a long-running Shonen manga and anime series that follows the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy and his crew. Moments before his execution, Gol D. Roger, the Pirate King, revealed his treasure contains everything the world has to offer. Roger also said that whoever finds it can claim it for themselves. His final words drove countless people to the sea, beginning the Great Pirate Era. Twenty years later, Luffy also became a pirate in hopes of finding the treasure. The series has come a long way in 26 years. Although the One Piece treasure is the premise of the story, the series has yet to reveal anything about it. Delve deeper to find out what Eiichiro Oda has to say about it. Eiichiro Oda confirmed that One Piece treasure is a tangible treasure The term “treasure” has always held different meanings in different works of fiction. In some stories, the very concept of a journey is a treasure, while others consider their friendship and bonds to be priceless. The idea has been repeated so many times over the years that One Piece naturally began to theorize that the legendary treasure would be something about friendship or freedom. Their assumptions aren’t baseless since the series mostly focuses on the bonds of the Straw Hat crew. There’s also the tyrannical World Government that many people are fighting against. However, Oda revealed in 2019 during an interview that Luffy will get a proper treasure by the end of One Piece. In another interview, he also revealed that it’s a tangible thing, so it’s not going to be some magic concept like “releasing freedom in the world.” Not only that, but Luffy’s voice actor, Mayumi Tanaka, shared that the treasure won’t be about friendship or anything conceptual. Considering that Luffy’s entire journey revolves around his goal of becoming the Pirate King and claiming the treasure, these statements are really reassuring to fans. Concepts like friendships and freedom are great, but Luffy is a pirate through and through. Considering all the challenges he has been through and the countless lives he saved, Luffy deserves nothing less than all the riches the world can offer.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda reveals “biggest challenge” of Netflix live-action series – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda reveals “biggest challenge” of Netflix live-action series NetflixAs the One Piece live-action series is all set for its premiere on Netflix, Eiichiro Oda addresses the biggest challenge he faced during its production. One Piece live-action will officially premiere on Netflix tomorrow, marking the end of the seven-year-long journey of the production team, including the series’ creator, Eiichiro Oda. The mangaka has been a central part of the production as the executive director since the very beginning. Netflix is promoting the series all across the United States. Knowing that it may be the last chance for One Piece to go global, Eiichiro Oda is sparing no effort in supporting Netflix with all this. Recently, Oda was spotted in California, USA, at the World Premiere of One Piece live-action, giving various interviews. He addresses several questions regarding the adaptation and mentions his challenges as the executive director. Eiichiro Oda reveals the biggest challenge of One Piece live-action was not betraying the fans’ expectations Undoubtedly, Oda has played a crucial role in the success of the One Piece live-action. From taking care of every little detail in the series to continuously reassuring fans about its quality, the mangaka left no stone unturned. Thankfully, his efforts are being paid off, as fans and critics have nothing but praise for the series. In a recent interview, Oda talks about his responsibilities as the executive director. Netflix assured him that if the final results didn’t satisfy him, then he could make the call to cancel the series entirely. The reason behind such extreme measures is the faith fans put in their favorite mangaka. He would never want to betray his fans by calling something “good” when it clearly isn’t. When asked about the challenges he faced during the One Piece live-action production, Oda responded, “Not betraying the expectations of One Piece fans.” Generally, the anime community isn’t enthusiastic about live-action adaptations, and One Piece fans aren’t any different. Manga and anime aren’t intended for live-action adaptations, so he rejected several past offers. But with modern technology, he believed it was worth a shot. The production took seven years because of the many conversations, trials, and adversities with the team and writers. The mangaka also expresses his happiness over seeing the perfect final product that meets his initial expectations. Netflix will premiere One Piece live-action on 31 August. Here’s the official trailer.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda revealed the biggest plot twist “by mistake” – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda revealed the biggest plot twist “by mistake” CrunchyrollOne Piece just revealed its biggest plot twist with Vegapunk’s message, but Eiichiro Oda accidentally revealed it some time ago. Spoilers ahead! One Piece manga has just revealed Vegapunk’s message, and it’s unlike anything you would expect. Gorosei had no clue what Vegapunk would say, but they knew it wouldn’t be good for them, considering how much he knew. Vegapunk has been working for the World Government for years and has even been researching the Void Century. Hence, it’s also certain that he knows about the ancient kingdom, something Gorosei would do anything to hide. However, Vegapunk’s message starts with the world sinking. Most people don’t know, but in the Japanese version, Eiichiro Oda has already revealed the biggest One Piece plot twist we’ve seen so far. Twitter user Pewpiece shares, “Did you know that Oda revealed that the world is sinking by mistake, and only Japanese people knew about it? Let me explain it to you. In the final version of One Piece Chapter 1085, Lilly’s message was edited, and some words were hidden because they contained spoilers that Oda didn’t want people to know about. An early version was 沈みゆく世界に夜明けの旗を掲げ, which translated to ‘Raising the flag of dawn in a sinking world’. Which a lot of Japanese YouTubers knew about already and asked questions about, but sadly, we didn’t have a clue back then.” They further add in a comment: “For example, Yuderon, the famous JP youtuber already talked about eight months ago and asked if the world is sinking into the sea? That’s why I would love to learn JP in this year.” So yes, the implication behind “sinking world” is pretty much clear. One Piece will likely reveal more about Vegapunk’s message in the next chapter, which is delayed due to Golden Week.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda hypes up anime’s 25th anniversary – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda hypes up anime’s 25th anniversary CrunchyrollOne Piece has big plans for anime’s 25th anniversary, so creator Eiichiro Oda has every reason to hype up his fans. Here’s what he has to say. One Piece is one of the longest-running manga and anime series, so it’s only reasonable that it has a wide fanbase. The series is popular for its expansive world-building, intriguing character design, layers of mystery, and incredible storyline. The series follows Luffy’s adventures as he sets to sea to gather a crew in search of the legendary treasure One Piece. As the story progresses, the truth of the World Government’s corruption and tyranny comes to light. They’re also hiding a secret about the Void Century that might turn the world upside down. The manga started publishing in 1997 and got its anime adaptation in 1999. October 2023 marked the anime’s 24th anniversary.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda fixes major error in manga – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda fixes major error in manga CrunchyrollAfter apologizing for an error in the One Piece manga, Eiichiro Oda has fixed it in a new version. The One Piece manga is currently featuring its Egghead Arc, which has delivered many shocking and thrilling chapters since it began. Not only do we see Luffy’s adventures on a new island, but the story also follows several fan-favorite characters. Whether it’s Shanks vs Kid, Blackbeard vs Law, the Reverie flashback, Garp’s invasion in Hachinosu, or Kuma’s backstory, each of these events brought a new set of surprises for us. Kuma’s past is one of the saddest backstories in One Piece. While the story itself is phenomenal, one of the chapters had a major error. Luckily, Eiichiro Oda fixed it in a new volume. Eiichiro Oda fixes Chapter 1098 in One Piece Volume 108 One Piece will release Volume 108 on March 4, 2024. It is titled “Better Off Dead in This World” and will include Chapters 1089 to 1100. Not only will the volume feature Luffy’s epic fight with Kizaru, but it will also include Kuma’s entire backstory. However, Chapter 1098 of One Piece was roughly drawn. It has all of the vignettes and texts; however, some pages are not fully complete. Some vignettes just include the sketch before the finished drawing. Either way, it could be a bit difficult to understand what’s going on at first glance. The mangaka apologized for the chapter. Chapter 1098 is also incredibly emotional and tragic as it continues Kuma’s past as he loses someone he deeply cherishes. Additionally, it also reveals his connection with Bonney. The upcoming volume will include neatly drawn panels since Eiichiro Oda worked extra to fix all the rough sketches. Apart from all these chapters, the volume includes a special cover featuring Luffy in his Gear 5 form, with his limbs spread open. Kizaru is standing behind at the very center of the cover, shooting lasers from his hand. Meanwhile, Bonney is running behind Luffy towards the left side while on the right, and injured Sentamaru is looking up. Below Luffy, Vegapunk is piloting the Vegatank-08, with Franky, Atlas, and Sanji sitting inside it. Apart from the cover and chapter, a special SBS section will also be there, as always. The SBS (Shitsumon o Bosh Suru), which translates to “I’m Taking Questions,” is a special column that lays out Eiichiro Oda’s responses to fans’ letters on a wide range of topics. The questions are mostly about the series and things they find confusing.

Eiichiro Oda reveals his biggest dream for One Piece live-action NetflixOne Piece creator Eiichiro Oda shared a message at Jump Festa 2024, revealing his ambitions for the live-action version of the animanga series. One Piece is a huge animanga series that has dominated the industry for several years. However, most fans doubted the decision when its live-action adaptation was announced, given Netflix’s track record. Fortunately, the show broke the curse and opened the doors for further projects. The eight-episode series’ success was evident from the incredible viewership, sitting among the top Netflix TV shows for three weeks after its official release. The recent Jump Festa event came with some massive news for the anime fandom. Here, we discuss a special message from the creator of One Piece during the big showcase. Eiichiro Oda’s dream for One Piece live-action Eiichiro Oda has blessed the community with One Piece; be it the anime or the manga, it has garnered a huge global fanbase.

However, besides this, one more thing can make your day: a special message from the great mangaka Eiichiro Oda. “The fact that a Japanese manga could win an Emmy or Academy Award someday! That would be a dream for me,” he said.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda’s controversial ending prediction is wrong – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda’s controversial ending prediction is wrong CrunchyrollOne Piece’s creator, Eiichiro Oda, made a controversial prediction about the manga ending, which turned out to be wrong. One Piece debuted in 1997 and has maintained its rightful place as one of the best mangas ever since. The series always ranks high in sales and popularity. After all, the series has everything to offer: a lovable protagonist, tragic backstories, thrilling fights, layers of mysteries, amazing character design, and so much more. The series follows Monkey D. Luffy and his adventures as he sets out to the sea to become the Pirate King after gathering reliable crew members. However, the story gets darker and deeper as it progresses. The series has been ongoing for over two decades and entered its Final Saga in 2022. The story got more intense than ever since the Egghead arc. The world is in chaos with the continuous shift in the balance of power. However, amid all the exciting events in the manga, one of Eiichiro Oda’s controversial predictions about the One Piece ending has now turned out to be wrong. Eiichiro Oda had controversial prediction about One Piece manga ending? According to Oricon News from 2019, Eiichiro Oda predicted that he would end the One Piece manga in five years. At that time, the Wano Country Saga was ongoing in the manga. Hence, Oda’s comment about ending the series in five years took the internet by storm. In the same news article, Editor Naito shed light on his interview with Oda from the day before. He said: “Honestly, when I heard Mr. Oda’s plans for the future, I couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Will this be finished in five years?’ But if Mr. Oda said it would be five years, I think he would finish it in exactly five years. “Judging from the current rapid development of the Wano Country arc, the tempo has certainly reached a point where it can be finished in five years. The fact that I said that means that there are so many things that readers already know, such as Mr. Oda’s thoughts of ‘I want to go to an island like this,’ and the various hints that have been laid out throughout the story. The next five years will be filled with great detail.” Judging from Eiichiro Oda’s earlier prediction, the manga should’ve ended in 2024, but there’s no way it will happen. One Piece is still publishing only the first arc of the Final Saga, and no doubt, there’s more to come. While the series has revealed several mysteries in the Egghead arc, countless more are still waiting to be explored. Needless to say, One Piece fans can’t find a reason to complain. After all, the series is currently at the peak of its popularity, so ending it would surely not be in their best interest. The story gets better with every chapter, and it’s still several years away from its grand finale.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda brings back his favorite character in Chapter 1119 – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda brings back his favorite character in Chapter 1119 CrunchyrollVegapunk’s broadcast is back online after One Piece Chapter 1119, with Eiichiro Oda reintroducing his favorite character in the manga. One Piece is currently at the final phase of its Egghead Island Arc as the crew prepares to leave for Elbaf. Vegapunk’s broadcast was cut off prematurely in Chapter 1117, but it begins again in the next chapter. The crew still struggles against Gorosei. Additionally, Bonney copies Nika’s form. She uses her Distorted Future to set up a timeline for herself where she’s completely free. As Vegapunk’s message continues in One Piece Chapter 1119, we see more reactions from the world, and Eiichiro Oda even brings back his favorite character, Gaimon. According to an article by Comic Book in 2017, Oda revealed that he likes Luffy, but his favorite character is Gaimon. Gaimon is a minor character in the series who appeared briefly in the East Blue Saga. Luffy and his crew arrive at an unpopulated island and meet a man stuck in a treasure chest. Along with Gaimon, the new chapter also features a new character stuck in a chest. A One Piece translator shared, “For those who don’t know, Sarfunkel is the new inhabitant in the Island of Rare Animals introduced in the 19th One Piece Cover Story – From the Decks of the World (Ch. 620) Gaimon and Sarfunkel is a spoonerism of the folk rock duo – Simon and Garfunkel.” A popular theorist also wrote, “Now way, the Simon and Garfunkel hint from Redon was a reference to Gaimon and Garfunkel. I can’t even be mad. That’s a hilarious way to spin a hint.” For more Straw Hat shenanigans, check out our One Piece filler guide and our ranking of the strongest Straw Hat Pirates.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda breaks silence on frequent manga breaks – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda breaks silence on frequent manga breaks Crunchyroll / Instagram @inakigoSince the Final Saga began, One Piece manga has been going on several breaks. Here’s what Eiichiro Oda has to say about it. One Piece manga is currently in its last stretch, featuring the Final Saga. Within the few chapters of the Egghead Island arc, fans learn about the truth of the secret name D, the Reverie flashback, the defeat of several major characters, and so much more. As the One Piece manga gets more intense with each chapter, fans can’t help but appreciate the brilliant storyline. However, if there’s one thing to complain about, it’s the frequent breaks the series is having. The series has already taken two breaks following the month-long break due to Oda’s eye surgery. And now, chapter 1091 is also delayed, further disappointing fans. Delve deeper to find out what Eiichiro Oda has to say about the frequent One Piece manga breaks. Oda apologizes for the One Piece manga breaks One Piece manga chapter 1090 was already delayed because of the Shonen Jump’s break. However, it was recently revealed that the series will again go on a break. The main reason behind it is Oda’s busy schedule due to the Netflix live-action adaptation. Oda has been part of the production since the very beginning. He is overlooking everything to ensure that there have been no compromises in the series. Judging by the reputation of the live-action adaptation in the anime community, no one can blame Oda for being extra cautious. Not to mention that the Netflix series is marketed towards the older audience, unlike the original series. Luckily, it seems the efforts of Netflix and Oda are paying off, as the trailer looks spectacular. The level of detail reflects in every scene. However, the manga takes a side seat as Oda prepares for the live-action series. Now that the Final Saga has begun, the series has dozens of mysteries to resolve. Even though the manga is not ending anytime soon, several major events have already happened. The Straw Hats Pirates, who didn’t appear for a long time, also recently came back. However, their adventures had barely even begun when the manga takes consecutive breaks. On the bright side, after chapter 1091, the frequent breaks will end. Oda will only delay one chapter every 3-4 weeks, which is still very reasonable. The series is finally picking up its pace as it features the Straw Hats going against an Admiral again.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda apologizes for Chapter 1098 – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda apologizes for Chapter 1098 CrunchyrollOne Piece Chapter 1098 will continue with Kuma’s flashback, but mangaka Eiichiro Oda apologizes for the chapter. Here’s everything you need to know about it. One Piece manga entered its Final Saga last year, and since then, the Egghead Island arc has sidelined Luffy’s adventures several times. This time, while the Straw Hats were busy fighting Admiral Kizaru and Saint Jaygarcia Saturn, the manga enters Kuma’s flashback. We see his tragic life since his birth, his struggles as a slave, and how he joined the Revolutionary Army. The flashback is still continuing in the manga, so we might see his life with Bonney and the reason he became a Pacifista. One Piece Chapter 1098 is all set to release this weekend, but Eiichiro Oda feels it’s necessary to apologize for it. The chapter is not quite what one would expect, but it’s a rare case in the history of One Piece. Delve deeper to find out the reason. Why Eiichiro Oda apologized for One Piece Chapter 1098 One Piece leaker shares a translation of Eiichiro Oda’s message about Chapter 1098, “I couldn’t finish drawing in time. Sorry.” The leaker also adds his comment about the chapter in the same tweet. He says, “The chapter is 100% readable; it has all the vignettes and texts, but there are some pages that are not 100% drawn. Some vignettes only have the sketch prior to the final drawing (sketches with quite a lot of detail, not like the ones Togashi does in Hunter x Hunter). “Others have parts of the drawing that are 100% finished, but other parts are sketches, others do not have the shading patterns, some background… It’s a very strange feeling when I see it. Obviously, the perfect version will be published in Volume 108. They are not going to leave it like that.” Eiichiro Oda is also taking a break from the manga next week, so One Piece Chapter 1099 has been delayed. The author’s busy schedule is no secret in the fandom, especially with so much happening in One Piece these past few months. 2023 has been an incredible year for One Piece, with the Gear 5 anime adaptation, Netflix’s live-action series, and the manga unraveling several mysteries in the Final Saga. Additionally, the fact that Chapter 1097 only has 13 pages and Chapter 1098 only has 15 pages confirms the author’s busy schedule.

One Piece: Eiichiro Oda claims live-action show didn’t need to be “one-to-one” adaptation – Dexerto
One Piece: Eiichiro Oda claims live-action show didn’t need to be “one-to-one” adaptation NetflixOne Piece creator Eiichiro Oda explained how the live-action show was faithful to the source material without being a one-to-one adaptation. Netflix’s One Piece is one of history’s most successful live-action adaptations. Based on a popular manga by Eiichiro Oda, the production took seven years to complete. As soon as it started streaming, it became the top series in 84 countries, breaking the previous records of Stranger Things and Wednesday. Oda had always been reluctant to allow a live-action adaptation of One Piece, but he finally conceded, considering that modern technology can recreate his imagined phenomenal world. As the executive director of the series, Oda supervised every minor detail. It was always going to be difficult to translate 68 anime episodes into eight live-action episodes seamlessly, but Oda explained how that dream became a reality. Eiichiro Oda reveals live-action creation process In an interview with the New York Times, Oda spoke about defying a “history of failure” for anime and manga live-action adaptations. Oda was reluctant at first to create a live-action adaptation, but Netflix assured the One Piece creator that they wouldn’t release the show until he read the scripts and ensured that “the material was being adapted in the correct way,” as the legendary mangaka explained. And Netflix took a very different approach to accomplishing that goal. Instead of adapting every panel of the manga, the live-action streamlines 11 volumes and seven-story arcs into eight episodes. In defense of this daring strategy, Oda argued: “A live-action adaptation of a manga doesn’t simply re-enact the source material on a one-to-one basis: It involves really thinking about what fans love about the characters, the dynamics among them — and being faithful to those elements.” Oda continued: “A good live-action show doesn’t have to change the story too much. The most important thing is whether the actors can reproduce the characters in a way that will satisfy the people who read the manga. I think we did it well, so I hope audiences will accept it,” he added.” Netflix’s gamble paid dividends, as the show producers teased a second season announcement. However, nothing can be set in stone unless Netflix officially renews One Piece live-action for Season 2. Dexerto amended this article on September 11 with corrections.

One Piece: Egghead Arc still has one “big twist” left before ending – Dexerto
One Piece: Egghead Arc still has one “big twist” left before ending CrunchyrollOne Piece is all set to conclude the Egghead Arc with the Straw Hats leaving the island, but there’s one “big twist” waiting before the chapter is closed for good. The Egghead Arc is the first arc in One Piece’s Final Saga. Thus, there’s no shortage of important storylines and impactful twists. It also finally gives the Gorosei the center stage after giving us glimpses of them for years. After many exciting fights and shocking revelations, the Straw Hat Pirates finally get the opportunity to escape from the island in One Piece Chapter 1122. This indicates the end of this arc is drawing closer. However, it’s not quite over yet. Halfway through the Egghead Arc, One Piece’s editor commented, “It’s been stated that Egghead would conclude with a major incident. However, there is still one more big twist to it. I won’t say anything else or they’ll erase me, lol.” Since then, fans have been waiting for the “major incident”. While there has been some significant progress in the story, including Vegapunk’s message to the world and Emeth’s ultimate attack against the Gorosei, not to mention Luffy and Bonney defeating Saturn, none of these are the “big twist” the editor promised. So, fans are now eagerly waiting for it to come before the ongoing arc ends. They even have many theories about what this twist is going to be. As one X user writes, “Kizaru vs Saturn. Mark my words.” “Either Saturn or Kizaru is dying. Or maybe both,” adds another, while a third joins: “Saturn is definitely gonna end up dead, probably drown.” One fan comments, “Probably the unleashed haki from Joyboy using Emith will be absorbed by Luffy (New Joyboy). Can’t wait to see New Haki or the fourth Haki, King of Kings Haki!” The possibilities are numerous and each one is plausible, given the unpredictability of One Piece. But the manga also has a tendency to surprise us often, so be prepared for anything. For more on the pirate world, check out how One Piece marks My Hero Academia’s ending and the fan theory about Vivi being an Ancient Weapon.

The arc features Luffy’s new adventures on Egghead Island, where he will ally with an important figure of the World Government. However, things take a dark turn when he catches the eyes of the higher-ups. Delve deeper to find out the episode title and release date of the Egghead arc debut in One Piece anime. One Piece Egghead arc debut episode title and release date in anime According to leaker Pewpiece, One Piece anime will commence the Egghead arc in Episode 1086, titled “The New Emperor! Buggy the Clown.” The title may vary slightly in the official translation, but One Piece Episode 1086 will be released on December 3. The anime already has very few filler episodes, but this time, the studio has decided to neglect it entirely. Therefore, it’s a good thing the Final Saga is beginning before the years. What to expect from the One Piece Egghead arc? We’re skipping major spoilers, but the arc will focus on the Straw Hats’ journey to Egghead, the island of science. They will find Jewelry Bonney along the way, who is also on her way there. The series also introduces Vegapunk for the first time as we learn about his abilities. However, Vegapunk has several enemies, and it’s up to Luffy and his crew to protect him. Bonney also has a goal in mind, and it’s related to Kuma, who turns out to be her father. We will see a glimpse of her childhood and Kuma’s memories. Apart from Luffy’s adventures, the arc also unveils the mystery behind the Reverie incident and the true killer of Nefertari Cobra. Additionally, Sabo learns some major secrets of the Void Century. The arc is currently featuring Kuma’s backstory in the manga, and it’s the darkest one in the story yet.

One Piece: All deaths in Egghead Arc so far – Dexerto
One Piece: All deaths in Egghead Arc so far CrunchyrollThe Egghead Arc in One Piece is about to reach its conclusion, and the storyline has included certain character deaths that shocked fans. One Piece is a popular Shonen manga, and the fight between pirates and the government is an everyday occurrence. Yet, despite so many battles, only a handful of people have died in the series. In fact, most of them are included in the flashbacks. Creator Eiichiro Oda doesn’t tend to kill off many characters, bringing them back from death’s door even if they suffer fatal injuries. However, the manga is currently approaching the endgame and a lot more characters are expected to die in the near future. The Egghead Arc already has its fair share of tragedies with only a few deaths. While the status of Garp, Kid, Law, and Edison, remain unknown, these are the confirmed deaths in the arc so far. 1. Saint Mjosgard Saint Mjosgard is a minor character who was introduced in the Fishman Island Arc. He used to like other Celestial Dragons before Queen Otohime saved his life. Since then, he changed his ways and came to respect other races. During the Reverie Incident, Saint Charlos was trying to make Shirahoshi his slave, and no one was allowed to stop him. However, a feud between Celestial Dragons wasn’t supposed to get either side in trouble. Nonetheless, Saint Figarland Garling executed him in a cruel manner for the crime of defending Merfolk. 2. King Nefertari Cobra Sabo was framed for Nefertari Cobra’s death, but the Egghead Arc of One Piece revealed Gorosei and Imu are responsible for it. While seeing answers about Queen Lili from Gorosei, he witnessed the world’s greatest taboo, a ruler sitting on the Empty Throne. Hence, Gorosei and Imu wouldn’t let him live even if they answered some of his questions. Sabo entered the room when he realized Nefertari Cobra’s life was in danger. Despite his attempts, Sabo was too late to save Cobra’s life and barely escaped the Pangea Castle after witnessing the full power of Gorosei. 3. Shaka Shaka was one of Vegapunk’s satellites, embodying the aspect of “good.” He was an ally to the Straw Hats but he was killed by York. Shaka’s death was too sudden, and the manga revealed York was the traitor after this happened. Not only did York sneak an attack to kill Shaka, but she also did horrendous things for Gorosei. Her goal is to become a Celestial Dragon, and she would stop at nothing to achieve that. 4. Pythagoras Pythagoras was one of Vegapunk’s satellites, embodying the aspect of ‘wisdom.’ The situation in Egghead soon spiraled down after the traitor’s reveal. Pythagoras died at the hands of S-Snake shortly after Shaka. His main body was destroyed and she stepped on his head, causing it to explode. This leaves no hope for his return. 5. Atlas The crew is still unable to escape Egghead with Gorosei constantly on their way. Zoro and Jinbe stop Nusjuro but the latter is too powerful for them. Hence, after knocking Lilith out, Atlas arrives at the Thousand Sunny and confronts Nusjuro. As long as Lilith is unconscious, York can’t sense her presence. Atlas grabs Nusjuro and takes him high into the sky before detonating herself. While this attack isn’t enough to severely injure Nujsuro, it’s enough to buy time for the crew.

One Piece: Egghead Arc damaged one Straw Hat the most, but nobody noticed – Dexerto
One Piece: Egghead Arc damaged one Straw Hat the most, but nobody noticed CrunchyrollThe Egghead Arc in One Piece features a chaotic fight against the World Government, but Robin takes most of the damage but no one has noticed it so far. The Egghead Arc follows the crew on a futuristic island where they meet the legendary scientist Dr Vegapunk. However, as soon as they arrive there, they find out Vegapunk is the target of the World Government. They’ve sent CP0 agents to kill the genius scientist for the crime of researching the Void Century. Naturally, Luffy and the crew wouldn’t let that happen. So, they plan to escape the island but that’s impossible when Seraphim, Kizaru, and even Gorosei arrive at the island. The situation turns from bad to worse. The Final Saga begins with this arc, so it unravels a lot of mysteries and features several fights. However, Nico Robin has been overshadowed a lot, but there’s a reason why she’s unable to act more. How did the Egghead Arc hurt Nico Robin? The ongoing chaos in the Egghead Arc of One Piece is bringing back Robin’s worst memories. Soon after they arrive on the island, Robin finds out Saul is still alive. She spent 22 years thinking her friend had died while trying to save her. However, she’s even unable to feel relieved about that because enemies keep popping up one after another. She’s injured during the long battle but her worst nightmare stands before her when she’s barely holding herself together. Robin freezes in shock when she sees Saturn as the latter tries to kill her again. That’s very uncharacteristic of her because she always stands on business no matter how difficult the situation is. That said, Saturn played a major role in the tragedy of Ohara and the twenty years of hell she had to go through after that. Looking at her friends’ desperate actions to save her, Robin pulls herself together and launches an attack on the villain. However, Vegapunk’s message begins and he unravels all the secrets he knows about the Void Century. Not to mention, the shocking truth about Professor Clover being from the ‘D’ clan comes to light. All this while, she’s been showing signs of mental exhaustion as she’s unable to keep up with the overflow of information about her past and the people she lost back then. Even so, Robin has been sidelined a lot throughout this arc, and her trauma is the major reason she’s not giving her all in this arc. On the other hand, everyone in the crew is doing their part. Even in some panels she’s featured in, she’s holding back her tears. While Egghead forced her to relive her worst nightmare, Elbaf will be a major turning point for her where she will most likely be reunited with Saul.

One Piece dropped major hint about Iron Giant that nobody noticed – Dexerto
One Piece dropped major hint about Iron Giant that nobody noticed CrunchyrollOne Piece Chapter 1118 is the most controversial chapter in a while, but it also drops a major hint about Iron Giant that was lost in translation. One Piece Chapter 1118 divided the community into two parts as fans debated Bonney’s Nika transformation. Luffy’s Nika form symbolizes freedom. He is the Warrior of Liberation, and Kuma told her stories about him. Bonney keeps believing in Nika and finally uses her Distorted Future to create a future where she is totally free. While the controversy of this chapter continues, fans fail to notice something extremely important about Iron Giant. The ancient robot sinks into the sea after getting hit by Warcury’s attack. As it drowns, it thinks about Joyboy and tries to look for him. However, a major hint about the Iron Giant gets lost in translation. Popular One Piece translator Sandman shares, “In the Japanese chapter, the ancient robot speaks like a 10-year-old boy, despite his tough appearance. What was he like to Joy Boy?” When a fan asks if the Iron Giant’s speech pattern is similar to Going Merry, the translator explains, “Good catch. Going Merry also spoke childishly, but he (not she) spoke more fluent Japanese than the ancient robot.” When someone asks if other characters have the same speech pattern as Iron Giant, he further explains, “The ancient robot’s speech style sounds even younger than Usopp’s three friend boys in the JP chapter.” A popular theorist shares his insight in the same post, “I think that his childish speech pattern is due to sounding like a robot, like what an interactive toy robot would talk like. The fact his speech is in katakana adds to the robot’s way of sounding.” Iron Giant is still one of the most mysterious characters in the manga. This new information further confirms its ability to sense Joyboy and no doubt the manga will share its backstory and reveal its identity in the future.

One Piece: Does Sabo die in Lulusia Kingdom? – Dexerto
One Piece: Does Sabo die in Lulusia Kingdom? CrunchyrollOne Piece’s recent episode leaves Sabo’s fate unknown as he was taking refuge in the Lulusia Kingdom – does that mean he dies after the attack? One Piece made its Egghead arc debut today, and it’s already off to an intense start. The world is already in chaos, with the balance of power changing so dramatically. To make matters worse, the mysterious ruler, Imu, is now making their move. Sabo, who is suspected of assassinating Nefertari Cobra, is in hiding. He barely manages to contact the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army. He also tells them about someone occupying the Empty Throne. However, Imu blows up the Lulusia Kingdom to bits the second after. One Piece’s recent episode also features Sabo’s glimpse as the light falls on his face before the Lulusia Kingdom is destroyed. The episode then shifts its attention to Luffy and his crew, leaving Sabo’s fate unknown. Delve deeper to find out if Sabo dies in the Lulusia Kingdom of One Piece. Warning: This article contains spoilers from the manga! Does Sabo die in the Lulusia Kingdom of One Piece? Sabo is still alive in One Piece, and he wasn’t in the Lulusia Kingdom when the tragedy happened. Imu destroys the Lulusia Kingdom in Chapter 1060, leaving Sabo’s fate unknown for several months. In Chapter 1082, he arrives at the Kamabakka Queendom and reunites with his fellow revolutionaries. What’s more, he uses a Lulusian ship to get there. He also brings all the survivors of the attack. As Koala and others worry about him, Sabo explains he couldn’t contact them since the Marines are monitoring all his calls. In a room with Dragon and Ivankov, Sabo unfolds the events of the Reverie. The true murderers of Nefertari Cobra are Imu and the Five Elders. Sabo tries to save him, but he is no match against the overwhelming powers of those villains. After barely escaping from Mary Geoise, he arrives at the Lulusia Kingdom. Despite the chaotic situation, the people welcome him with open arms and treat him as a hero for killing Cobra. Additionally, he couldn’t contact the headquarters using an encrypted snail. Therefore, the call he made just before the destruction of the Lulusia Kingdom was after he set sail to the Kamabakka Queendom. The Lulusians, who were onboard the ship, helplessly watched their home get blown up to bits as they had no choice but to make their way to the Kamabakka Queendom.

Iron Giant’s fate in One Piece explained: Does Emet die in the manga? – Dexerto
Iron Giant’s fate in One Piece explained: Does Emet die in the manga? Eiichiro Oda/ShueishaIn One Piece Chapter 1122, the Iron Giant attacks Gorosei while using Joyboy’s haki, but what happens to Emet after that? The Iron Giant is an ancient robot belonging to the Void Century of One Piece. He has been inactive for over 200 years after attacking Marie Geoise. Vegapunk reveals he cannot determine the source of his energy. Later, the Iron Giant becomes active again after listening to the Drums of Liberation. The manga also reveals his name is Emet as he recalls his past with Joyboy. It’s clearly unknown why Emet, a robot would have a soul. Translators confirm his speech pattern is like that of a child, which raises a string of questions about his identity. However, before the manga can explore his past further and his reunion with Joyboy (Luffy), Emet sacrifices himself to stop Gorosei. Does Emet die in One Piece manga? Emet’s status in One Piece is officially unknown. In One Piece Chapter 1122, Emet uses all his powers after launching a devastating attack. The attack is powered by a massive amount of Joyboy’s Conqueror’s Haki, which is powerful enough to stop the villains from approaching. However, the Iron Giant is already ripped in several pieces after fighting the powerful Gorosei. Furthermore, using Joyboy’s Haki rips him of all his remaining power. The giant robot collapses on the ground and the manga has yet to reveal more about his status. The Iron Giant could return someday Emet is now “slumbering”, which leaves some ambiguity. Popular theorist Artur states: “According to the editor’s note, it says ‘(Emet) slumbers away as it recalls old memories,’ meaning Emet is either out of battery again, or he might be dead for good. Thank you for everything, Emet.” However, the true source of Emet’s powers remains unknown after what he did 200 years ago. Not only did Emet attack Marie Geoise, but he did it purely on instinct. There also wasn’t a Joyboy during that era, but Emet was still functioning for a while before he ran out of energy. Hence, while the giant robot is out of commission, there are still some chances of seeing him again. Although, for now, the crew will escape to Elbaf and it doesn’t look like they will take Emet’s parts with them. For more from One Piece, check out the release date and spoilers for One Piece Chapter 1123. Also, look at why Roger Pirates didn’t act after learning the truth and the manga confirming Imu’s gender.

One Piece disappoints fans with no chapter and episode this week – Dexerto
One Piece disappoints fans with no chapter and episode this week CrunchyrollThe One Piece anime and manga are currently featuring a lot of exciting moments, but the sudden delay has disappointed fans. One Piece is one of the longest-running anime and manga series, with a massive fanbase. The anime is finally releasing all the highly-anticipated Gear 5 episodes while the manga is gearing up for an Elbaf arc. Therefore, the series is currently more interesting than ever, but the sudden breaks continue to disappoint fans. Ignoring the one-month break Oda took because of his eye surgery, One Piece has been on regular hiatuses even after that. To make matters worse, even the new episode is delayed right in between Gear 5 episodes. As such, fans express their disappointment toward this while they wait for more episodes and chapters. The One Piece chapter and episode are delayed this week because of the live-action series Oda has already revealed the reason behind frequent manga breaks is because of the live-action adaptation that will release on 31 August. He has been part of the production since the very beginning and overlooks every minor detail to ensure that there will be no compromises in the series. Therefore, the manga takes a side seat as Oda busies himself with the live-action series. Now that the Elbaf arc is confirmed, the series couldn’t have chosen a worse time for a break. The adventures of the Straw Hat Pirates began after more than three months, only to have frequent hiatuses after every chapter. The situation at Egghead Island is dire as Kizaru prepares to attack Vegapunk and the Straw Hats. As the island is currently under siege, they plan to escape to Elbaf using Vegapunk’s machine. However, Luffy is surprised after sensing the presence of someone powerful (he refers to Kizaru). Therefore, there’s still a while before the new arc officially begins. Luckily, Oda has revealed that these frequent delays will end after Chapter 1091. After the live-action starts streaming on Netflix, the manga will have breaks every three or four chapters, which is still reasonable. As for the anime series, there has been no official announcement regarding the delay, but the reason is the same. Since there’s a recap episode broadcasting next week, it means that there’s no issue with the broadcast channel. Therefore, the only reasonable explanation is the live-action series. Fans express disappointment regarding the delays, even if some are considerate enough to understand the need for Toei and Oda to take breaks every now and then. Here’s what One Piece fans have to say about this week’s chapter and episode delays: How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023?

One Piece director: What will happen to the original series? – Dexerto
One Piece director: What will happen to the original series? NetflixNetflix and WIT Studio are currently producing their own version of One Piece, titled THE ONE PIECE – but not everyone’s excited. Following Netflix’s announcement of an upcoming One Piece anime remake at Jump Festa ’24, fans of the original manga and anime have taken to social media to express their excitement and concerns. The general sentiment is that you can’t have enough of One Piece. However, although Netflix has had a tremendous run with the release of several hit original anime series. Fans still can’t ignore the historic missteps that could tarnish One Piece’s name. And it’s not just fans that are concerned. Let’s take a look at animation director Hiromi Ishigami’s thoughts on the upcoming Netflix series. One Piece director takes to Twitter to voice concerns On December 17, One Piece Film: Red director Hiromi Ishigami took to Twitter to express his concerns about how the new Netflix series will impact the original One Piece. This question was followed with another tweet, saying, “I feel like the value of the anime we’ve built so far seems to be diminishing, and it makes me feel a little sad.” His comments were met with an outpouring of support from the fans of the original anime. Many of them share his concerns, and also believe that a successful still-running series like One Piece doesn’t need a remake right now. This outpouring of international support prompted Ishigami to post, “I’m very happy that many people from other countries have told me my views aren’t narrow-minded! This is a warm world. They cherish not only the work but also the staff members.” Ishigami also graciously posted that he was excited to see what WIT Studio and Netflix would do with the series. However, he wasn’t alone in his worries. Many fans have also commented with concerns about it. Fan reactions to Netflix’s One Piece Based on the daunting length of the colossal One Piece anime and manga, it’s believed that the new Netflix series will introduce a new fanbase to the East Blue and Monkey D. Luffy’s world. The remake will first adapt the East Blue arc. However, it’s important to note that depending on the success of the new series, it likely won’t stop there. This has prompted fans to engage in a social media debate about how this new remake could impact the original series. Some expressed concerns that WIT studio could attract animators away from Toei Animation. The anime industry is chronically understaffed, underpaid, and overworked, so these fan concerns are not unfounded. After all, WIT’s CEO put out a casting call for animators worldwide to help them capture One Piece magic. However, we’ll have to wait and see what happens after the Netflix remake debuts. No matter the concerns, one thing is clear. One Piece with modern animation and a fresh take on the source material will bring a new generation into a beloved franchise that’s lasted for decades.

One Piece director wants unused Easter Eggs in Season 2 – Dexerto
One Piece director wants unused Easter Eggs in Season 2 NetflixNetflix’s One Piece Season 2 still has a long way to go, and director Marc Jobst has special hopes for it. Here’s everything you need to know about it. Netflix’s most successful live-action adaptation series, One Piece, is all set for its highly-anticipated sequel. The second season is currently under production. It was renewed two weeks after the series debuted and created quite a buzz on the internet. Eiichiro Oda confirmed the sequel in a special video message, thanking global fans for their support. He also teased Chopper’s introduction, which more or less confirms that Season 2 will adapt the Arabasta Saga. The Saga follows Luffy and his crew all the way to the Grand Line, with more dangerous enemies. In a recent interview, One Piece live-action director Marc Jobst shares his thoughts on Easter Eggs during Gold Roger’s execution. Delve deeper to find out more One Piece director Marc Jobst’s thoughts on Easter Eggs In a recent interview shared on YouTube, when asked about the enormous amounts of Easter Eggs in the opening scene, Marc Jobst says, “Man, you know, there were more. We had more Easter Eggs. “You know, we shot a lot of stuff for those scenes, and, you know, it would be lovely if maybe in season two, you know, because Oda-san quite often goes back to the execution of Gold Roger. “So there’s quite a lot of material we shot that we haven’t used, and it might be quite fun to use some of that kind of later on to build the bigger picture of Gold Roger’s execution. I don’t know, listen, I don’t know what the showrunners have got in mind, but we had lots of other Easter Eggs that never got into the final cut.” The interviewer also asked him to throw one example if possible, but Marc funnily responded, “David, I would be murdered if I did that. How could I possibly do that? You know I can’t say that.” What to expect from One Piece Season 2 One Piece Season 2 will adapt the Loguetown arc (the final arc of East Blue Saga) and the Arabasta Saga. The Straw Hats will visit the town where the Pirate King was born and executed. They will meet an unexpected adversary there and barely survive the journey to the Grand Line. The islands and pirates in the Grand Line are way more dangerous than Luffy and his crew had ever faced. They find out about a mysterious organization, Baroque Works, and the ties they hold with the Arabasta Kingdom. One Piece live-action is currently streaming on Netflix, and the anime is available on Crunchyroll.

One Piece: 10 major differences between anime and live-action – Dexerto
One Piece: 10 major differences between anime and live-action Netflix/ShueishaNetflix’s One Piece has been lauded as one of the greatest anime adaptations of all time – but there are some key differences between the original series and the live-action show. As Netflix intended, One Piece rewrites the history of live-action adaptations with its latest series. The series is now available to stream in various countries, and fans and critics globally have nothing but praise for it. Instead of recreating the original story, the series takes a different approach to the narrative while staying faithful to the character design and backstories. Since it’s marketed toward an older audience and not specific to anime and manga, a lot of things have changed in the live-action series. Everything remains the same: the characters, their backstories, and their bonds, but the narrative and pacing take an entirely different route. Here are the ten major differences we noticed between the One Piece anime and the live-action series. 1. The introduction scenes of several characters are different As they say, the first impression is the last impression. Character introductions are extremely crucial in any form of fiction, not just anime. In the original series, Luffy is introduced as he comes out of a barrel, and Zoro is first seen when the Marines capture him. And yet, these scenes completely change in the Netflix adaptation. The same goes for Garp and so many more characters. Netflix’s approach is surely interesting, and it would be fun for those new to One Piece. However, since the Straw Hats are the heart of One Piece, their different introduction may not sit well with anime and manga fans. 2. Luffy’s first meeting with his crew is different Again, the first meetings between the Straw Hats have changed significantly. Luffy witnesses the fight confrontation between Zoro and Helmeppo. In the original story, he heard it from the little girl who offered Zoro some riceballs. Nami and Luffy’s first encounter is hilarious in the anime, but that also changes completely. In the One Piece live-action, Luffy and Usopp met when the latter was working on Going Merry, but that’s not how anime fans remember it at all. In the anime, Usopp threatens Luffy, and the latter instantly recognizes him as Yasopp’s son. For die-hard One Piece fans, these meeting scenes in the Netflix adaptation will look out of place and kind of forcefully incorporated. 3. The original story is changed in many ways Every scene of the One Piece live-action adaptation reminds anime fans of how much it deviates from the original story. It’s not because of the concise plot, the pacing, characters, and moments being excluded. But the Netflix series shows how Luffy steals the map of the Grand Line from Captain Morgan when it is actually stolen from Captain Buggy. Nami’s village isn’t aware of the reason behind her working with the Arlong Pirates, but the original story shows something completely opposite. Likewise, in the anime, Genzo wearing a pinwheel on his head is important to show his love for Nami, whom he treated like a daughter. This was also removed from the live-action adaptation. 4. Comedy scenes are significantly less There’s no doubt that One Piece is an absolutely hilarious show. Especially the East Blue Saga, where the series is less intense and much more fun to watch. Whether it’s Luffy’s first meeting with Koby, his fight with Arlong, or the crew’s overall interaction, absolutely everything is chaotic. In comparison, the live-action has significantly decreased the comedy. It’s still fun to watch but nowhere close to the anime. It’s likely because the series is intentionally made much more serious to accommodate the older audience. 5. A lot of characters are introduced earlier in the series The story begins with Garp’s presence during Roger’s execution. Of course, he wasn’t there in the manga. Garp was briefly shown much later in the story and was introduced properly way after that. However, unlike the anime, we see him in the opening scene of One Piece live-action. Baroque Works is an organization of bounty hunters run by the Warlord Crocodile. The series first mentions it after the Straw Hats enter the Grand Line in the Arabasta Saga. Zoro’s encounter with the former Mr. 7 is only briefly mentioned. However, we see their entire fight in the Netflix adaptation. Likewise, Arlong is an antagonist of the “Arlong Park Arc,” and he has no reason to wreak havoc in Baratie as the live-action features. 6. The series is too dark compared to the anime This is not to suggest that the manga and anime of One Piece aren’t dark or violent. Aside from the themes of tyranny, slavery, and oppression, the original story is packed with amazing action and violence. However, the series is also gory, probably because of the real-life effects. The fight between Zoro and Mr. 7 ends with the latter’s brutal death. The lighting, the editing, and everything else make the series too dark compared to the anime. Not only that, but a lot of the scenes are shot at night. In the anime, Luffy meets Koby and then fights Alvida. All of these happen during the day. 7. Several characters from the East Blue Saga are missing Since the Netflix adaptation covers 95 chapters into eight episodes, there are bound to be some characters that will be missing from the series. Oda had previously mentioned that some characters would be missing in the Netflix series, and he wasn’t wrong at all. One Piece has way too many characters to keep track of. Johnny and Yosaku are bounty hunters who previously teamed up with Zoro but didn’t appear in the live-action. They also became good friends with the Straw Hats and lingered with them for quite a while. They also explained the Seven Warlord System. Likewise, Mohji, Chouchou, Momoo, and several more characters could’ve made small appearances but didn’t. 8. The condensed storytelling streamlines the vast world of One Piece The condensed storytelling is the most apparent difference in the One Piece live-action adaptation. Interestingly enough, the first season covers the East Blue Saga, except for the Loguetown Arc, and compresses the narrative while retaining the spirit of what makes One Piece unique. The storyline is flexible, thanks to certain liberties used in retelling the story in a slightly redesigned and refreshing manner, which helps to streamline it. Some of the changes brought depth to the plot and helped build on the foundation built down by the source material throughout the years. For example, Garp and Zeff’s conversation with Zeff never occurred in the anime or manga adaptations of the series. However, their discussion concerning the next generation, on the other hand, reflects fundamental concepts from the series and adds depth to the plot. 9. Luffy is smarter in the live-action The lovable protagonist of One Piece is known for his dumb personality, which often ends up creating hilarious situations in the anime and manga. However, Netflix’s One Piece has made a significant change by making Luffy way smarter than he is really his. For example, he realizes he can trap Buggy’s several body parts in different crates and uses this idea to defeat him. In the anime, however, Nami ties up Buggy’s parts and helps Luffy defeat him. Additionally, he also figures out the connection between Nami and Nojiko, demonstrating emotional intelligence, which he seriously lacks in the manga. 10. Nami’s village truly hates her One of the most heart-wrenching backstories in One Piece is about Nami sacrificing her entire childhood for her village. As an eight-year-old kid, she has to work under the same person who killed her foster mother in front of her. Arlong recognized Nami’s talents and blackmailed her to join his crew. The villagers were aware of all this but were helpless in front of the Arlong Pirates. This made their situation look even worse as they were forced to watch one of their own work relentlessly for their sake. They even act like they hate her, but in reality, they want nothing more than for her to be free from Arlong’s clutches. However, in the live-action, the villagers all believed Nami to be greedy. Nami even had to spell out her real motives in front of her sister, Nojiko.

Luffy’s epic tale as he journeys across the world to become the Pirate King.

Luffy’s ultimate form will debut in One Piece Episode 1071, which will be released on 6 August 2023. The series will have its first anime ending after 17 years Somewhere between the Enies Lobby arc, One Piece stopped including ending themes. The last ending theme was featured in Episode 278. This is because the studio decided to opt for longer openings featuring glimpses of the episode fans are watching. The standard time frame for each anime opening is 90 seconds, which was the same for One Piece before it started showing opening themes of 150 seconds. Nonetheless, One Piece Day 2023 finally introduced a new anime ending, “Raise,” sung by Chilli Beans.

The series has been featuring OP 24, “PAINT,” since January 2022. The song will be performed by Sekai no Owari, a popular J-Pop band that Eiichiro Oda suggested for OP 25. The title and concept of the new theme have yet to be revealed. But it will debut in One Piece Episode 1071 along with the new ending theme. This theme is highly anticipated since it will feature Luffy’s Gear 5 and a lot more exciting moments. Eiichiro Oda’s Monsters is getting an anime adaptation after 30 years From 1992 to 1996, Eiichiro Oda published a collection of five short stories drawn by Oda Eiichiro before One Piece became a major hit. Its official title is “WANTED!” but it is also known as Monsters, Romance Dawn, and God’s Gift for the Future. More than 30 years after its publication, E&H Production Studio announced its anime adaptation and a teaser video. The series will feature Ryuma’s story and his resemblance to Zoro.

One Piece creator wanted this character to be second to Luffy, and fans are surprised – Dexerto
One Piece creator wanted this character to be second to Luffy, and fans are surprised Eiichiro Oda/Toei AnimationOne Piece creator Eiichiro Oda revealed his intended second main character alongside Luffy in an interview, and it’s not who you’d expect. The newly released DVD of the One Piece prequel anime, Monsters, contains a special interview from the franchise creator. In the interview, Oda revealed how Shimotsuki Ryuma initially had a crucial role in his plans. “Around this time (before One Piece), I was proud of having already imagined a character like Luffy as the main character,” the author stated, “Next, I thought I would like to make a supporting character into a main character.” Oda continued, “I believed that if we had two main characters, we would be able to secure a serialization spot. Ryuma is that character, created with the aim of being the “#2” main character.” Ryuma being the intended second main character explains why the author created Monsters in the first place. It was supposed to serve as a backstory for another main character. However, at some point, Oda changed his mind and didn’t include Ryuma in One Piece for many years, debuting them in the Thriller Bark Arc. Instead, his descendant Roronoa Zoro was introduced as Luffy’s first crewmate (though the connection between Zoro and Ryuma wasn’t explained until recently). And even though Zoro isn’t the second protagonist, his role in the story (and the crew) is second only to Luffy himself. “Damn, so Ryuma in Thriller Bark is the #2 main character,” wrote one X user, with another joining, “Ryuma is made as 2nd main character! Yes, I do believe Zoro will surpass Ryuma one day hopefully.” A third added, “After reading it again, Oda created Ryuma to be the second main character but since Ryuma is dead in the main timeline of One Piece, Zoro is the character created to support Luffy as 2nd main character. Did I get that right? But does this make him the deuteragonist?” Though Oda’s comment doesn’t confirm if Zoro is the deuteragonist of One Piece, it does prove the author always had Luffy (or someone like him) as his main hero in his mind. Know more about these pirates with our explainers on Bonney’s Devil Fruit and the Void Century. You can also find out if Bonney will join the Straw Hat Pirates and who has the highest bounty in One Piece.

One Piece creator says this movie made him believe live-action was possible – Dexerto
One Piece creator says this movie made him believe live-action was possible NetflixOne Piece live-action is a global sensation currently, but it may not have been possible if the creator, Eiichiro Oda, wasn’t convinced because of this classic movie. One Piece live-action has received more positive reviews than any other adaptation in history. The series started streaming on Netflix on 31 August and quickly became a global sensation. It’s currently the top show in 84 countries. The production took seven years, and One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda has been an integral part of the series since then. As the executive director of One Piece live-action, he ensured that the series stayed faithful to the original story. Oda has always been sceptical about his masterpiece getting a live-action adaptation. Judging by the bad history of anime adaptations, we can’t really blame him for hesitating. However, it’s all thanks to Stephen Chow’s classic movie that encouraged Oda to take the risk. Stephen Chow’s sports comedy encouraged One Piece creator to agree with the live-action During an interview, the One Piece creator shares, “For many years, I have received different offers to adapt One Piece into a live-action, and I have rejected them all. First of all, I think that manga works are not intended to be adapted to the cinema. It is not easy to bring them to a real image. But visual effects and production standards started advancing to a point where I saw movies being made that convinced me that with today’s technology. It’s possible, so I changed my mind and started thinking about finding the right partner with the one to work.” Netflix’s One Piece meets his expectations as the series becomes a global sensation. In an interview with The New York Times, Eiichiro Oda shares that Stephen Chow’s 2001 classic “Shaolin Soccer,” a sports comedy, made him believe that a live-action manga adaptation is possible if done right. Shaolin Soccer is a timeless classic based on a popular Japanese Manga series called Captain Tsubasa. So, it goes without saying that the martial arts in the film will be similar to anime/manga and highly augmented by visual effects. They comprise CGI and physics-defying action. One Piece live-action is currently streaming on Netflix.

One Piece creator reveals Devil Fruit that broke his own rules – Dexerto
One Piece creator reveals Devil Fruit that broke his own rules Eiichiro Oda/Toei AnimationEichiro Oda reveals one Devil Fruit that goes against his preferences in One Piece SBS 109. The position of the One Piece movies canonically has always been a subject of speculation. Though movie characters like Shiki and Uta appear in the main storyline, incidents from the films have never been addressed in the story. Naturally, fans are quite confused about the whole ordeal. Recently one reader asked Oda about the Golden Lion Shiki appearing in the manga and if that meant the events of 2009’s One Piece Film: Strong World is a part of the main story in SBS 109. Oda’s answer clarified the movies’ connection to the canon once and for all. The author revealed one can “forcefully” incorporate the events of the Strong World (and every other) movie in the main storyline if they want. But those won’t be “that much” connected to the manga. The author also disclosed the Shiki in Strong World is the same as the one in the manga. However, it was never his plan to give the character the Float-Float Fruit. In fact, he has a personal rule of not giving any of his characters free floating and flying abilities. “I have a self-rule that I won’t make a guy that can freely fly in the air,” revealed Oda, “So I decided to seal away the ‘Float-Float Fruit’ (because this is a manga about pirates).” But since Shiki was given the Float-Float Fruit in the anime movie, the mangaka has to include it in the main story from now on. It’s quite irregular, with the canon having to adapt to the non-canon, instead of the other way around. As Oda put it, “It’s true that a strange ‘reverse importation’ has occurred.” Shiki is a mysterious character in the One Piece manga. He used to be a member of the Rocks Pirates alongside the likes of Whitebeard, Kaido, and Big Mom. After the crew disbanded, he started his own by the name of the Golden Lion Pirates. His Paramecia-type Devil Fruit allows him to fly and make any non-living thing he touches float. It used to be considered a non-canon fruit until now. But Oda’s answer has officially put it on the list of the canon Devil Fruits in One Piece. For more on the pirate world, check out our explainers on Bonney’s Devil Fruit, the Void Century, Joyboy’s history, and Vegapunk’s message.

One Piece creator praises Netflix’s “perfect” cast on cursed snail phone call – Dexerto
One Piece creator praises Netflix’s “perfect” cast on cursed snail phone call Netflix/ShueishaOne Piece’s reclusive creator Eiichiro Oda reconfirmed his approval of Netflix’s live-action adaptation in the most One Piece way imaginable. Using a thoroughly disturbing snail phone made famous by the manga and anime. Netflix’s live-action One Piece adaptation is fast approaching. The long-awaited project sets sail on August 31 and fans of the anime couldn’t be more hyped. The show is already getting ridiculously high pre-release praise with some calling it the best live-action anime adaptation to date. First reactions from screeners are calling Netflix’s take on One Piece “the real deal”. To add to the already significant accolades, creator of the manga Eiichiro Oda reaffirmed his own love for the final product. In a post to the OnePieceNetflix Instagram account, Oda relayed his thoughts on the show via an iconic Transponder Snail gifted to him by the cast and crew of the Netflix series. Eiichiro Oda on live-action One Piece Eiichiro Oda is notoriously private and goes to great lengths to avoid revealing his face to the public. As such, in the video where live-action Luffy Iñaki Godoy gifts him the Transponder Snail, his head is covered by an animation. Normally the animatronic snail phone would be immensely off-putting, and it still is kind of, but the overjoyed reaction of Oda softens the whole bit. The phone works exactly as it does in the anime and manga and Oda reveals his thoughts from the snail’s mouth itself. “As a Hollywood production, the action and VFX are great, not to mention the performances by the cast,” Snail Oda said. “But above all, I want to call attention to how perfect the Straw Hat cast are.” Oda then gave what might just be the biggest stamp of approval a live-action One Piece could hope to attain. “It’s like you’re watching the Straw Hats in real life, which I’d love for you to savor.” Oda has had a big input on Netflix’s take on the anime classic. He was given final approval on everything the streaming giant wanted to do with their version of One Piece. Dexerto has a heap of Anime, TV, and Movies coverage so if you’re keen to hear more about Netflix’s One Piece or any of your other favorites, take a look.

One Piece creator has been planning legendary character since before the franchise even started – Dexerto
One Piece creator has been planning legendary character since before the franchise even started Eiichiro Oda/Toei AnimationEiichiro Oda’s early work proves the most legendary character in One Piece was planned years before the beloved manga’s debut. Recently, the One Piece author’s first editor revealed the concept art of one of his unfinished works. Titled ‘Forward’, the manga was pitched by a 19-year-old Oda. However, the idea was apparently shelved since it never made it to serialization. Forward’s protagonist is a young man named Monkey D. Pao, who looks quite similar to our very own Monkey D. Luffy. The concept for this character was someone who likes to “stretch and sleep”. Sounds familiar? Besides his illustration, Oda noted, “People who can laugh off their weaknesses are the strongest.” This seems like a reference to the character’s power. Monkey D. Pao might be someone who becomes stronger the more he laughs. This is reminiscent of a legendary One Piece character who’s also incredibly strong and notorious for their laugh. The Sun God Nika made an explosive introduction in the story when Luffy transformed into the deity in Gear 5. It’s thanks to Gear 5 that we learned how laughter plays an important role in Nika’s powers. But it’s not just Nika or Luffy who has this incredible ability. The mysterious Joyboy also possessed the same powers during the Void Century. Like Luffy and Nika, Joyboy’s powers also included stretching, coupled with the signature manic laugh and the freedom of doing practically anything he wanted. However, unlike Nika, he wasn’t a deity but a real person. Given how we don’t know most things about Joyboy, including his real name, the historical figure may actually be Monkey D. Pao. It’s plausible since we know he also belonged to the D clan. And his being blood-related to Luffy is an exciting prospect. While this is all conjecture at this point, it’s not impossible. Oda has previously incorporated a character from his earlier work into One Piece canon. With a 30-year gap in between, Monsters’ protagonist Shimotsuki Ryuma was confirmed to be One Piece’s legendary samurai and Thriller Bark’s antagonist. Interestingly, Forward was conceived in the same year, 1994. So, it’s entirely possible that like Ryuma, Pao will also find his way into One Piece’s canon. For more, find out if Bonney will join the Straw Hat Pirates or if Sanji will get Conqueror’s Haki. You can also check out our explainer on Bonney’s Devil Fruit and Bonney’s new transformation.

One Piece creator had two “major” demands for Netflix live-action series – Dexerto
One Piece creator had two “major” demands for Netflix live-action series NetflixThe creator of hit manga and anime One Piece had some major demands for the live-action Netflix series. Get ready to sail the four seas, because Netflix’s One Piece is almost here! For those who don’t know what One Piece is, One Piece was originally a manga – the highest-selling manga of all time, in fact – written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda. It was then adapted into an anime by Toei Animation in 1999, and is still going strong 1,000 episodes later. But the One Piece train – or boat in this case – isn’t stopping, because a live-action series has been in the works for a few years now. Ever since Netflix announced a One Piece live-action adaptation in 2020, fans have been waiting excitedly to hear any information about the show. And in a recent interview, the showrunner of Netflix’s One Piece has revealed what Eiichiro Oda wants from the upcoming series. Eiichiro Oda made two demands of live-action One Piece Recently, Shueisha posted a statement from One Piece live-action showrunner Matt Owens. In this statement, he mentioned a number of requests that One Piece creator Oda had made, with two in particular being “major.” The first was that the Straw Hats’ backstories had to be kept the same: “They’re so pivotal to who they are as people, what their dreams and motivations are, and how Luffy digs into that as he meets them and helps them rediscover those dreams.” The second was based on the characters’ different skills: “Specific devil fruit powers and other skill sets were all carefully crafted by Oda and a lot of imagination went into what different people can do and what the rules are with that,” Owen explained. So while some fans may have their reservations about the upcoming series, we can at least know that Oda was very involved in the process. Check out the synopsis for the series below: “As a child, Monkey D. Luffy was inspired to become a pirate by listening to the tales of the buccaneer “Red-Haired” Shanks. But Luffy’s life changed when he accidentally ate the Gum-Gum Devil Fruit and gained the power to stretch like rubber…at the cost of never being able to swim again! Years later, still vowing to become the king of the pirates, Luffy sets out on his adventure…one guy alone in a rowboat, in search of the legendary “One Piece,” said to be the greatest treasure in the world…” The One Piece live-action series will officially drop on Netflix on August 31, 2023.

One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda beats huge record set by Tom Clancy – Dexerto
One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda beats huge record set by Tom Clancy VizOne Piece has been going for quite a while now. 27 years, in fact. And in that time, the manga has sold a lot of copies — so many, creator Eiichiro Oda is moving up the ranks in terms of global sales. Somehow, One Piece has managed to be remarkably consistent across over 1100 chapters and anime episodes. It’s remained one of the best anime in the hearts of many ever since the premiere in 1999. Likewise, chapters of the manga are still an event for would-be Straw Hats. One Piece Chapter 1111, for instance, has already garnered reaction thanks to the Iron Giant and Luffy’s attack against the Gorosei. At this point, it seems like no amount of One Piece filler could slow the franchise down. Oda himself has actually been actually moving up some prestigious ranks lately, too, overtaking the likes of Tom Clancy and Stephen King in recent years. Eiichiro is now in the top 10 best-selling fiction authors of all time, and his placement is moving. For instance, on Wikipedia, he’s currently in tenth position, two ahead of Tom Clancy, and right behind Sidney Sheldon. The numbers compiled here are predominantly for physical book sales, so volumes of One Piece that are sold online and in stores. Meanwhile, in February of 2023, WordsRated had Oda in ninth place, over JK Rowling, with 516.5 million copies of One Piece sold. That’s a lot of books. The consensus is clear — Oda continues to make his way up the ranks of prolific writers and creators. He has a mountain to climb to get to the top three, Barbara Cartland, Agatha Christie, and William Shakespeare, as each is in the billion-copies-sold club. There are still several One Piece sagas to go, mind, so Oda may yet find himself in that exclusive class. Then the whole world will be a Straw Hat! For more on Luffy’s adventures, we have a guide on the strongest One Piece character, and a list of the saddest One Piece character backstories.

One Piece creator confirms anime is getting live-action Netflix show – Dexerto
One Piece creator confirms anime is getting live-action Netflix show Viz Media/Shueisha/NetflixOne Piece creator Eiichiro Oda confirmed that Netflix will be bringing the popular anime to its streaming service in the form of a live-action drama, and will even be teaming up with the Japanese artist. One Piece is one of the longest running properties in Japan, making its debut as a manga in the iconic Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine in 1997, and spawning a popular anime adaptation in 1999 that still airs today. However, the beloved story of Monkey D. Luffy as he yearns to become the king of pirates is finally coming to life as Netflix and series creator Eiichiro Oda have confirmed a collaboration to bring the epic journey to the streaming platform with a live-action remake. One Piece coming to Netflix as live-action series Eiichiro Oda made a joint statement with Netflix on January 29 and confirmed the collaboration, which was then translated underneath. “I know I announced the production of this back in 2017, but these things take time!” he opened up. The anime artist excitedly revealed that streaming platform giant would be giving him full support. “Netflix, the world’s leading streaming entertainment will be lending us their tremendous production support. This is so encouraging!” He then revealed that season one will be an order of 10 episodes. “How far will the story progress over the 10 episodes of Season 1? Who will be cast? Please be patient a little longer.” he teased. It was also confirmed that Oda would be working with Steve Madea, whose work includes The X-Files and Lost, as well as Matt Owens who helmed Marvel’s Luke Cage. Madea, who will be the series showrunner, celebrated the news on Twitter, replying to the One Piece creator’s tweet exclaiming, “Thrilled to be working on live-action adventures of the Straw Hat crew. Thanks to Oda-sensei for entrusting us with his vision.” This move is another example of Netflix making a push to bring animated series’ to life, as in 2019 it was announced they are bringing the Nickelodeon series Avatar: The Last Airbender to the platform in 2020, and also re-imagining it as a live-action show. While most anime adaptions into the live-action format hasn’t worked out so well (think the poorly received 2017 Death Note film), the potential is here with One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda himself working full time on the project as Executive Producer. Read More: Demon Slayer Shinobu cosplay is a viral hit – The project was also first announced three years ago, and according to reports, a lot of work has been done in the background between the Japanese artist and the streaming giant to ensure that it’s a project worth doing. So there is hope.

One Piece confirms Bonney’s origins – and it’s not what you think – Dexerto
One Piece confirms Bonney’s origins – and it’s not what you think CrunchyrollOne Piece Chapter 1098 confirms Bonney’s origins, and it’s something no one would’ve expected. Here’s everything you need to know about it. One Piece’s Jewelry Bonney has been a topic of discussion among fans for quite a while now. She’s Kuma’s daughter and risked her life to save him from Marie Geoise. She even went to Egghead to look for Vegapunk and find answers about her father’s death. Bonney’s origins have been more or less a mystery among One Piece fans. According to the countless theories circulating on the internet, many believe that she’s either still a kid or simply a clone. Nonetheless, Eiichiro Oda is popular for doing the unexpected, and this time it’s no different. One Piece Chapter 1098 confirms Bonney’s origins, and it’s something no one would’ve expected. What does One Piece Chapter 1098 reveal about Bonney’s origins? One Piece Chapter 1098 reveals Bonney’s parents. The chapter confirms Ginny is indeed Bonney’s mother. After this character debuted in Kuma’s flashback – she was rumored to be either Luffy’s or Bonney’s mother based on their similar features. However, now that the chapter has confirmed she gave birth to Bonney, it also reveals her father, and it’s not Kuma. The recent chapter revealed that an unexpected enemy kidnapped Ginny, who is now revealed to be a Celestial Dragon. Ginny was forced to be with him for two years and was abandoned after contracting a fatal disease. She had baby Bonney in her arms when she died after contacting Kuma. Kuma teleported to her location, but she was already dead. He saw Bonney there with the same illness and raised her. Bonney has been with Kuma since she was a baby, so it’s unclear whether she knows about her birth father. However, the hatred she feels towards Celestial Dragons is real. Whether or not Bonney being a World Noble means anything in the future, it’s clear that her origins are truly shocking. As the series confirms that Bonney has the blood of a World Noble running through her veins, we know that the Buccaneer race is likely extinct after Kuma’s death.

Kuma was one of those slaves destined to die in God Valley. But thanks to the fight between big-shot pirates and Marines, he and 500 slaves and civilians managed to escape from there. Kuma and Ginny stayed behind in Sorbet Kingdom after parting ways with Ivankov. One Piece Chapter 1097 will continue with the Sorbet Kingdom flashback as we see more of Kuma’s struggle. The chapter will also reveal that one dangerous and extremely powerful criminal is a member of the Marine. Warning: This article contains spoilers from the upcoming chapter! Which One Piece criminal is revealed to be a former Marine in Chapter 1097? According to spoilers, One Piece Chapter 1097 confirms Monkey D Dragon was once a Marine Officer. During a brief flashback in Chapter 1066, we find out that Dragon was once a part of the Freedom Fighters, and he aimed to overthrow the World Government. Dragon is currently labelled as the “world’s worst criminal,” and his bounty is unknown. Not much is known about the Freedom Fighters. Dragon was once a part of it, but we don’t know who started the group. In Chapter 1097, Dragon and Ivankov appear in the Sorbet Kingdom as they lead the Freedom Fighters to defeat the tyrant king. However, they left the group soon after. Fans have always wondered whether or not Dragon was a Marine Officer, so in the upcoming chapter, he finally answers the question. However, Dragon soon left the Marines after realizing that there is no “justice” there. He wanted to reform the world, which is why he established the Revolutionary Army after the Ohara Incident. The corruption and tyranny of the World Government are enough to boggle anyone’s mind. High-ranking Marines, such as Admirals, also have to serve the Celestial Dragons, who take joy in people’s suffering. Unlike Garp, Dragon must’ve realized he could not change the world by staying there, so he joined the Freedom Fighters at some point.

One Piece confirmed Imu’s gender, but no one noticed – Dexerto
One Piece confirmed Imu’s gender, but no one noticed CrunchyrollImu is believed to be the final villain of One Piece, but fans know almost nothing about them, including their gender. However, it now appears that Imu’s gender reveal was lost in translation. One Piece has its fair share of mysteries, including around rumored final villain, Imu. Although Imu’s not confirmed as the final villain, all hints point toward that possibility. Furthermore, their existence itself is the biggest taboo in the world. The entire propaganda about the establishment of the World Government is to create a world where everyone is equal. Over the years, the 20 allied nations that formed the World Government became 170, further amplifying their power. And yet, they are corrupt, becoming involved with human trafficking, genocide, and all kinds of atrocious deeds. Oda has been hiding Imu’s identity, but their gender was revealed some time ago in the Japanese version, which was lost in translation. Which One Piece Chapter revealed Imu’s gender? In the raw version of One Piece Chapter 1086, Ivankov’s dialogue reveals that Imu is male. According to a Japanese native translator on Twitter/X, “The honorific “聖(sei)” is used immediately after the names of male Celestial Dragons. In contrast, the honorific “宮(guu)” follows the name Shalria.” The translator further adds, “Ivankov referred to Imu as “ネロナ家のイム聖(sei)” so at the very least, we can assume that Imu was male at the time the current World Government was established.” It’s common for details to be lost in translation. This is why Japanese YouTubers and theorists often explain these things on social media. Ivankov speculates that Imu’s name is “Saint Imu of House Nerona.” Imu is also believed to be an immortal. Ivankov mentions an ability that can grant eternal youth, which is most likely the Op-Op Fruit. He believes that someone in history must have used this devil fruit before. Even so, the confusion about Imu’s gender remains among One Piece fans, and will continue until their face is revealed. At the very least, it won’t be surprising when Imu is revealed to be a man because the clues are already out there. You can check out our article on Shanks’ ulterior motives, which was also lost in translation. For more Straw Hats shenanigans, look at the One Piece Chapter 1117 release date and spoilers.

One Piece: Complete Gear 5 anime release schedule explained – Dexerto
One Piece: Complete Gear 5 anime release schedule explained The highly anticipated Gear 5 in One Piece finally gets its anime adaptation. Here’s a look at its anime release schedule and some spoilers. Luffy’s Gear 5 changed the course of the story in One Piece. It was a major scoop back in March 2022 when fans learned that the aspiring Pirate King’s devil fruit had a hidden power all along. The tabloids and social media were swarmed with talks about this revelation. A devil fruit suddenly changing its type is not something that ever happens in the series, but the protagonist has a way of making the impossible possible. Luffy could overpower the Beast King Kaido, the strongest Yonko, easily. Although it’s been a while since the transformation took place, fans are still just as excited to watch the anime adaptation of their favorite protagonist making history. Delve deeper to find out the expected anime release schedule of Gear 5 in One Piece. One Piece Gear 5 anime adaptation schedule 30 July – Episode 1070 – 6 August – Episode 1071 – 13 August – Episode 1072 – 20 August – Episode 1073 – 3 September – Episode 1074 – 10 September – Episode 1075 – 17 September – Episode 1076 – Officially, Episode 1071 features the anime adaptation debut of Gear 5. However, it is important to note that Episode 1070 teases this transformation with a sneak peek where only the lower half of Luffy’s face will be shown, emphasizing his huge grin. Additionally, steam starts coming out of his mouth while an unknown substance envelopes him. All this happens when Zunehsa tells Momonosuke about hearing the “Drums of Liberation” for the first time in 800 years and the return of Joy Boy. One Piece Gear 5: A brief summary of the final battle With how the anime is currently adapting the manga, the series will likely feature Gear 5 for a few weeks before concluding the final battle of the Wano Country Saga. The fight between Gear 5 Luffy and Kaido will commence in Episode 1071, where the Yonko will apologize to the young pirate on behalf of the CP0 agent who launched a surprise attack on him. The real battle begins after a brief scene of Gorosei explaining the true power of Luffy’s devil fruit, which they consider to be “the world’s most ridiculous ability.” Luffy’s “revival” brings up the morale of his allies and the people in Wano. Luffy is having a blast treating the Yonko as a mere toy and appears delirious with the sudden increase in power. Instead of dealing with Kaido as soon as possible, Luffy takes his sweet playing with him. He even takes a giant form and uses Kaido’s dragon form as a jumping rope. On the other hand, Kaido begins to question Luffy’s identity, which confuses the latter. As fans are aware of Kaido’s obsession with Joy Boy, it seems he may have an inkling of what’s going on but refuses to admit it. The series will also feature a short backstory of the Kaido as he journeys from being a notorious pirate to a Yonko. How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023?

One Piece clears one misconception about Zoro – Dexerto
One Piece clears one misconception about Zoro Eiichiro Oda/Toei AnimationThe newly revealed One Piece vivre cards have cleared up one misconception about Zoro having Conqueror’s Haki. One Piece fans have wondered about Zoro’s Haki powers for some time. As the second strongest member of the Straw Hats Pirates, many expected him to have Conqueror’s Haki – a power very few characters possess – like Silvers Rayleigh. During the Onigashima battle, the speculations finally came to an end. While fighting King, Zoro unleashed Conqueror’s Haki through his sword Enma, which originally belonged to Kozuki Oden. The fight made fans believe the swordsman possessed Conqueror’s Haki like his captain and fellow Worst Generation members, Law and Kid. However, Zoro’s new vivre card reveals he only had Armament and Observation Haki. What’s more, the card refers to the incident at Onigashima, stating, “During the battle at Onigashima, Zoro’s sword emitted a black flash. Does he have the qualities of a king (Conquerors)!?” This cleverly disproves the theories about Zoro having all three kinds of Haki. At the same time, it also hints at him unlocking this power in the future. For now, one thing’s for certain: Roronoa Zoro doesn’t have Conqueror’s Haki. But if that’s the case, then how did he unleash it at Onigashima? The most plausible scenario is the Haki belonging to Enma, instead of Zoro. It’s possible some of Oden’s Haki remained inside the sword and was unleashed by Zoro’s determination during his clash against King. Eiichiro Oda’s denial of Zoro having Conqueror’s Haki while teasing it at the same time indicates the author has something planned for the swordsman in the future. Maybe he doesn’t have it yet but will unlock it at a key moment later in the story. One Piece is currently at the last part of the Egghead Arc. After this, the manga will start the long-anticipated Elbaf Arc, which is promised to be one of the most important arcs for certain Straw Hat members. Maybe Zoro will be one of them, finally revealing his true potential as the right-hand man of the future King of Pirates.

Eiichiro Oda randomly makes classic manga part of One Piece for hilarious reason – Dexerto
Eiichiro Oda randomly makes classic manga part of One Piece for hilarious reason ToeiAs if One Piece wasn’t already unruly enough, Eiichiro Oda has now confirmed a precursor manga as being part of his ongoing pirate epic. Alongside being one of the best anime ever, One Piece is one of the longest too. Boasting over 1,000 episodes, and even more manga chapters, Luffy’s ongoing journey to becoming the Pirate King has been truly epic so far. The manga kicked off in 1997, so it’s been running for almost 30 years. Eiichiro had some projects before then, and it’s one of those that he’s decided is now part of One Piece canonically. “Since the Wano Country Arc has been completed, and its connections with the Thriller Bark Arc have been resolved, I thought it would be OK to have Monsters be an official sidestory, so I gave the OK for the anime adaptation,” he says in an interview featured in a new printing of Monsters. Penned by the mangaka in 1994, Monsters is a one-shot from Eiichiro’s Wanted collection of shorts. It follows a samurai saving a small town from attack, and a stand-alone volume has been released for the 30th anniversary. That’s not all, because the anime version came out earlier this year on Netflix, too, and now the celebrations including becoming One Piece canon. the animation was handled by E&H Production, not Toei, who produce One Piece. Even so, the connective vibe is there. “Even though I gave them the OK without explaining how this story would connect to One Piece, when I saw the scene at the end with Zoro, I though, ‘Wow, this is perfect’,” Eiirchiro adds. Of course, as with most One Piece spin-offs, you don’t need to read Monsters to understand the plot. But it’s worthwhile if you enjoy exploring the mythology, and you never know what might get referenced in future. For what else is happening in the franchise, check out our guide to One Piece Chapter 1121 as well as our list of the saddest backstories.

One Piece characters fans would love to see again – Dexerto
One Piece characters fans would love to see again CrunchyrollBecause the story has so much to offer within a limited time, several fan-favourite One Piece characters end up disappearing completely after making brief appearances. Here are a few One Piece characters fans would love to see again. One Piece is a popular Shonen anime and manga series popular for its vast worldbuilding that introduces a variety of iconic characters. Thousands of characters have both helped and hindered Luffy on his journey to becoming the Pirate King. However, among them, very few characters are etched into fans’ hearts, whether they are allies or villains. Characters such as Ace and Whitebeard are often shown in flashbacks, even if they have been gone for a while. This is why these characters remain in the limelight even to this day. Delve deeper to find out about the incredible One Piece characters fans have been waiting to reappear. Enel Although he is the main antagonist of the Skypiea Saga, Enel has always been a topic of discussion among fans. Even several years after his introduction, Enel remains one of the strongest One Piece characters because of his Logia devil fruit. His unique character design and cruelty all make him a perfect villain. Enel’s name routinely pops up in several Reddit threats and other discussion forums. The fact that he has no relevance in the current storyline of One Piece doesn’t stop fans from hoping for his return. Bon Clay Commonly known by his nickname Bon Chan, this particular Straw Hat ally was also introduced as an enemy. However, time and again, he has always helped Luffy by putting himself at risk. Whether it is to risk his life in Arabasta or in Impel Down, Luffy and the Straw Hats would have been in peril had it not been for him. However, after Bon Clay’s sacrifice in Impel Down, fans were disheartened by his death. It wasn’t until years later that the series revealed that not only is Bon Clay alive, he is currently the new queen of Newkama Land. Since then, fans have been awaiting his reunion with Luffy. Donquixote Doflamingo Perhaps the most well-written and memorable villain in the entirety of One Piece is Donquixote Doflamingo. Although numerous One Piece characters are stronger than him, none quite embody the true qualities of a villain as Doflamingo does. Unlike Kaido, who has some morality despite being cruel, Doflamingo is thoroughly evil. He is also the most genius character in the series, capable of blackmailing the entire World Government. Since his iconic Summit War speech, Doflamingo has become a fan-favourite character. His loss at the Dressrosa Saga resulted in his being imprisoned in Impel Down. Since then, Doflamingo has yet to reappear in the series. The fact that he knows secrets dangerous enough to shake the entire world is enough to pique fans’ curiosity. Doflamingo’s popularity hasn’t diminished in all these years because of that secret. Jaguar D. Saul Tragic backstories and sacrifices are common in One Piece to add some character depth. It also helps make a character likeable, which is true in Robin’s case. Abandoned by her mother, outcasted by children from the island, and then becoming a scholar, Robin has seen many ups and downs at the age of eight. However, she had the support of her giant friend Jaguar D. Saul who always encouraged her with a smile. Sadly, her life quickly became a nightmare when a Buster Call obliterated her island. To save Robin, Jaguar sacrificed himself, which compelled Aokiji to help her escape. Fans believed Jaguar to be deceased until his name was mentioned in the Egghead Island arc. Although Dr Vegapunk has revealed that Jaguar is alive, the latter has yet to appear in the current timeline. Because of his relentless research on the Void Century, Jaguar’s return will unveil several mysteries. Not to mention, fans have been hoping to see his reunion with Robin. One Piece can currently be streamed on Crunchyroll.

Toei makes radical change to old One Piece character, and fans aren’t happy – Dexerto
Toei makes radical change to old One Piece character, and fans aren’t happy CrunchyrollToei Animation Studio faces criticism from fans after they changed the color scheme of a One Piece character. One Piece Episode 1116 features Sabo’s reunion with the Revolutionary Army. His status remains unknown for a while after the annihilation of the Lulusia Kingdom. Luckily, Sabo wasn’t on the island, and he made it back to the Revolutionary Army headquarters. The episode features a lot of the members, including Ahiru, the deputy commander of the East Army and Belo Betty’s assistant. In the original coloring of the manga, she has brown skin, a green coat, and brown hair. Additionally, In Shueisha’s official coloring, she has dark hair color and complexion. However, in the latest episode, she has a fair complexion which doesn’t sit well with other fans. Furthermore, Toei showed her original color scheme previously, in Episode 885, but now they’ve changed it. While sharing frames from the episode, the leaker Pew calls Ahiru a “new Revolutionary girl” but later finds out she’s been introduced before. Fans are not happy with the “whitewashing” since every colored version of Ahiru shows her with brown skin. “Crazy how One Piece is built on the concept of exploring a world with a wide variety of cultures and backgrounds and yet it has some of the most egregious whitewashing in anime that I can think of,” writes one fan. Another shares, “Toei stole that melanin like swiper the minute they realized she’ll become a prominent character.” “Robin I can defend because Oda never intended her to have dark skin in the first place, she’s meant to be Russian. This… this is the complete altering of a character for no real reason,” adds another. One Piece manga is currently heading towards its highly anticipated Elbaf Arc, teasing Usopp will have a major role.

Fan-favorite One Piece character gets limitless power in this Avengers: Endgame crossover – Dexerto
Fan-favorite One Piece character gets limitless power in this Avengers: Endgame crossover Toei Animation / Marvel StudiosAvengers: Endgame has proven to be a hit with worldwide audiences since it released, but this anime crossover with popular franchise One Piece could be even more loved by fans of the series if it ever happened. The One-Piece anime has been widely popular among viewers since it aired at the turn of the century, but fans have been conceiving incredible artworks that illustrate the Straw Hats and co in completely new lights. One of the latest entries to that trend tastefully fuses one of the most intimidating vice admirals in the Marines with the the full power of the Infinity Gauntlet which would make Luffy dread another Fist of Love. 600In a Reddit post, user ‘henriyuken’ gave Luffy’s grandfather Monkey D. Garp a fully decked out Infinity Gauntlet which would make his Haki punches all the more devastating. In the design, the Hero of the Marines has a wide smile since he now holds the power of the Power, Mind, Time, Reality, Soul, and Space stones, which would have to be used at full strength to keep Luffy safe from his pirate adventures. The artist gave their design a fitting name, calling it the Infinity Fist of Love for obvious reasons but it might also be because Garp is their “favorite One Piece character.” 600Fans of the show were loving the art piece, while also giving theories as to what Garp would do while wielding all that power. “With just a snap of his fingers he can increase the amount of meat in the universe by 50%,” Reddit user ‘topdangle’ said. The One Piece fan community have amazing artists While henriyuken certainly has an eye for great design as seen in his Garp piece, the rest of the community have come up with fantastic designs that sheds new lights on mainstay characters from the series. 600Whether its with artworks or hilarious NSFW cosplays featuring fan-favorite pirates from the show, One Piece fans provide some of the best creations in fandom. Time will tell if we get another One Piece x Avengers design in the future, but as it stands henriyuken’s design is looking to be a highly praised piece by the franchise’s fans.

One Piece Chapter 1126 separates the Straw Hats with a shocking twist – Dexerto
One Piece Chapter 1126 separates the Straw Hats with a shocking twist Toei AnimationOne Piece Chapter 1126 marks the beginning of the Elbaf Arc by mysteriously separating the Straw Hats. The manga’s fans have been waiting for the Elbaf Arc for nearly two decades now. After all this wait, the hype is undoubtedly very high. But One Piece seems ready to live up to readers’ expectations as it starts with the new arc with a bang. Following their disastrous encounter with the Gorosei and Emeth’s sacrifice, the Straw Hats leave Egghead Island with Bonney, Lilith, and the giants. One group stays on the Thousand Sunny while the other remains on the giants’ ship. Two days after the Egghead Incident, the Thousand Sunny – carrying Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, and Chopper – suddenly vanishes into thin air. The rest of the group on the Elbaf ship is understandably shaken by the incident. Like them, we also don’t know what happened to the group or what caused them to suddenly disappear. Readers are coming up with all sorts of theories, including the Man Marked by Flames being the mastermind behind this incident. However, at the end of the chapter, we get a little update on the separation. It turns out Nami has somehow split up from the other five and wakes up in a strange room. The room looks like it’s made of Legos. But that’s not the only weird thing about this – Nami is wearing a different, Viking-like outfit (usually worn by Elbaf natives) and has a sword now. One Piece Chapter 1126 ends here, so we don’t know what happens after that or how Nami has ended up in that room. Maybe we’ll find out in the next chapter. Aside from the Straw Hats’ separation, Chapter 1126 also reveals Luffy’s most loyal ally and the Red Hair Pirates’ true colors. We also get confirmation on Garp’s fate as he’s shown to be alive but imprisoned on Hachinosu. One Piece Chapter 1126 will be officially released on September 15, 2024. Until then, check out which restaurant features Joyboy and Luffy, and the anime kept which Imu-related mystery. Speaking of Imu, find out everything we know about the final One Piece villain.
