❗🌊 NOTIFICANT SQUAD! 👋❗ Have an idea I wanted to bounce off of you! Was wondering what you’d think of the idea of weekly One Piece streams where I’d talk about the latest chapter and generally nerd out about all things OP, then cut it down to a more cohesive video and put it on the highlights channel? Obviously we’re still a ways off from that, but it would mean weekly One Piece content for all of you while removing pressure from me producing full-fledged reviews which take much longer and would never come out on a weekly basis. So the way I see it - it’s a win win! Though I’d love to hear your take on it! 👍 The highlights channel is linked in the description btw - nothing there yet, but that’s where those would go.
@SupposeIRose2 жыл бұрын
Personally I think it's a worthwhile idea to do those sorts of videos as a good in between to larger analysis videos of whole arcs. The thing you have to look out for is the potential lowering of views of individual videos of chapters that aren't necessarily big hype ones. There's always stuff to discuss in One Piece chapters but not necessarily always big moments to be excited about. But if you're okay with it skewing the view count a little lower, it does sound like a really fun idea.

I loved that you stated Ace died in Luffy's arms. Most people say along the lines of "Luffy couldn't save Ace even though he was there" No shade on that but the emotional difference between that and "Luffy couldn't save Ace as he was dying in his arms" hits so much harder he wasn't just there, he was holding him and was helpless.
@Koroto2 жыл бұрын
That's an aspect of Marineford that I think was done exceptionally well and why I was so happy that I wouldn't have to rant about Ace's plot armor! It's one thing if Ace was killed in front of Luffy and he couldn't save him (ala Sabaody), but literally holding your dying brother in your arms and being absolutely helpless is a whole different ballgame. It's why I also loved that scene of Luffy just desperately screaming for someone to help Ace - it captured that moment of complete desperation and utter helplessness beautifully.

Good point. I had a fiance die in the same house I was in but I was in the living room and she in the bedroom, and another fiance died in my arms after a guy crossed the median in a lifted pickup truck and flattened the passenger side of my van. One of those nearly had me killing myself and required multiple people intervening in my life to save me, while the other was extremely hard to get over but eventually worked itself out in my emotional and mental thoughts without anyone's help. Without me telling which was which most people can probably guess the correct order of which reaction applies to which situation.

Probably unpopular opinion but I think Chekhov's guns shouldn't be overdone, the basis that every info should have relevance and come back later on as a Chekhov's gun makes the story ironically more predictable in the long run. You need superfluous information since that is what makes stories feel real - not everything you learn in your life has value or matters in the longterm. Using Chekhov's guns and "useless" (but preferably interesting) trivia in combination with each other is what makes Chekov's guns shine more in the long run.

4:05 In the scene with Doflamingo and Moria, Doflamingo states that the reason he's trying to kill Moria is that the higher ups have decided that he's too weak to be a Warlord anymore. Probably because he got defeated by the Straw Hats and then didn't really do much during the war. Later in the arc we get direct confirmation that Moria escaped when Doflamingo is talking to some guy who is probably the "higher up" who ordered this, or someone connected to them.

19:34 Oda uses wordplay with numbers a lot in One Piece. Luffy is often associated with the number 56 because in Japanese 5 = Go and 6 = Mu, and his devil fruit is the Gomu Gomu No Mi. Your theory could still be correct though, just letting you know that it also means Gomu / Rubber.

Note: "uncle" in Japanese carries more meaning than just "the sibling of one of your parents". It's a term you use for someone older than you with which you have a sort of bond, or in the sense of a yakuza family's hierarchical structure, the head of your division or head of a family that sits under a bigger clan. Sentomaru also calls Kizaru "uncle", in Japanese using the term "Ojiki". That said, it could very well just be a gag about Buggy's imagination, after all, Luffy said Ace is his brother (sworn brother, but it's not like he said the whole backstory to his crew either) and the Marines made it known that Ace was Roger's son, and that Luffy is Dragon's son, so it could be a joke about Buggy being confused.

This was honestly a really fun video and I'd been counting down the days till you got to it I only really have two things I wanna talk about The first is what you described as Luffy's overly trusting nature and wanting to be suspicious of it. In my understanding, it's not that Oda is trying to present Luffy as being overly trusting or trusting too easily, but rather that he has a very good inherent read of people and the ability to appeal to them in a way that makes them want to help them. It's the whole thing that Hawkeye talks about during Marineford. Luffy is the sort of person who can turn anyone, even former enemies into his allies and that's what makes him dangerous. The other thing is the 56 thing you brought up half jokingly. This is just a piece of useless trivia but the reason why it's 56 is because in Japanese those numbers are read as Go-Mu like Gomu as in Luffy's devil fruit power. it's basically just a cheeky reference. Though it is interesting food for thought that you mentioned about potentially one of the strawhats dying when there's 11 of them

For Luffy he has been dead for like 10 years, its not something people talk about much after such a long time, especially Luffy who throughout the series always lives in the here and now and doesn't care about the (or anyones past) hence he also said he had to go after Ace couse he is his only brother since he allready suffered the pain of losing his other brother in the past. (and of course the crossed out S in Ace's ASCE tattoo is for Sabo and looks like his flag) I don't agree on putting the Backstory befor MF btw, MF was Luffy's arc where he had to suffer a loss with the focus on his progression, if it was the other way around Ace would be a way bigger focal point iso of a goal, it also after gives you the perspective of why Ace stopped to face Akainu after insulting Whitebeard, where, in typical Oda writing style, you first say Why the hell didn't he just let it go, and afterwards it's explained what kind of person Ace is and understand why he couldn't let it go. (I recommend looking back at Arlong Park after you finish Fishman Island) Ps Zoro being the only one not figuring out the 3d2y 'riddle' was funny ;)

It's funny listening to this because I was about this same place when you made the video originally but now watching near end of Egg Head. I don't watch with the same level of detail as you do, so I miss things you, um, really get set off by. But when you nail one, like Law/Doffy similarity, knowing what the future holds, I have to applaud you. Because I didn't notice their standards much bc smiling faces on flags is common in OP. But truly, since Law's found-father is Corazon, Doffy's brother and murder victim, the symbolism was dead on. But not every details is essential. That's how you keep the watcher guessing. Also, for those who are "manga only" Oda does have veto right over anything in the anime that will foul up the story going forward. He obv doesn't write filler or additions, but he'll kill them if they are an issue (wasn't true until post-Alabasta and the extra poniglif, but Oda even worked that one way). So the anime is its own "art form" that should be judged diff from manga. Both are fantastic, but not identical art forms.

SO, between the four DF members of the crew, they cover all the numbers between 1 and 10 EXCEPT 2 AND 9. So people think there will eventually be a straw hat with the 2929 fruit or the 9292 fruit

FYI Luffy's number is 56 because it can be read as "Gomu" which is of course his fruit name. I think anything extra is a bit too thick for my preference in hats lol XD Also, FWIW, the anime pacing didn't seriously bother me until Dressrosa. It got bad.

Ironically even now on chapter 1118 theres still only 10 members... and the two members who were supposed to join didnt at the last second... that being Vivi and Yamato... the only thing is... who would they kill and why... Nami, Sanji, Chopper, Brooke, Franky, and Robin all have roles that being, Navigator, Cook, Doctor, Musician(didnt say importnat role just an actual role), Shipwright, and Archeologist, and then Luffys the captain, and if i remeber correctly jinbe is the Helmsmen (navigator tells him where to steer the helmsmen actually steers, before jinbe it was usually switched out between everyone beside Luffy and Zoro) the only two with no actual job on a pirate ship being Zoro and Ussop, Zoro just labeled as a swordmen or a fighter (which literally everyone on the ship is technically a fighter) and Ussop the sniper, Personally out of those two i think Ussop is the more likely to die, and the sole reasoning of that being that Ussops dream isnt just to become a brave warrior of the sea, its specifically to DIE a brave warrior of the see, granted he is a brave warrior, the word brave doesnt mean to stand with no fear it means to stand up despite of the fear you feel, he just isnt a brave warrior to himself yet, and i think sacrficing himself, like genuinely death sacrifice will, in his eyes, finally make him a brave warrior of the sea, not only opening up the spot for a long ranged attacker, conpleteong his own goal, but also fits neatly into the "If theres more then ten crewmates 1 must die" theory

About the 56 shirt, theres just a massive misunderstanding here. 56 is Luffy's number, it's been a consistent thing throughout the series because 5 reads "go" and 6 reads "mu" in japanese, it's a play on Luffy's fruit.

Luffy said he wanted at least 10 members at the beginning of the manga but it was another detail the anime left out of the beginning (like luffy getting his eye scar from stabbing it himself). Some people think there aren’t going to be over 10 straw hats, but another theory is that 4 joined in east blue, 4 joined in the first half of the grand line, so 4 more are going to join in the new world, meaning 12 crew + luffy in the end. Or Oda has no idea how many crew there will be and he’s just making up this story as he goes /j

Small thing about the number of people Luffy stated in the flashback. Luffy said: "at least 10 of them." The way it's worded, it's strongly implied to mean "recruting" 10 people to the crew. About the time it took since Luffy started His journey, it's maybe closer to 5-6 months, rather then 3. Not sure about that.

Going to correct you on a point. Luffy did not awaken his CoC on Amazon Lilly, he just used it there, unconsciously...

There is an interesting insight into Mihawk in him accepting Zoro's plea to train him. Before Marineford he was solitary and merciless, but when he witnessed Luffy and came to understand his power in inspiring and allying with others, he came to understand the value of being with others. Hence why he begins to respect perona a bit more, rather than just telling her to go away constantly. Had zoro asked him to train him before marineford, he would have spurned him and lost any respct for him, but because he now realises that Zoro is abandoning his pride for his Captain, and not out of any weakness, and he has this newfound respect for luffy and the crew because of it. Having opened his eyes to another way of being strong while not having to be isolated
