Can’t wait for friday

ethantaro

watch next episodes NOW

Karatsuki

He watched it like a month ago just not uploaded lol

Ender

Ace came to Wano before he met Whitebeard with his own crew and wanted to go to Wano again when beeing under Whitebeard but that would obviously count as Whitebeard Pirates attacking another Yonko, which obviously is bad (as we saw a similar scale on Marineford). About the Mythical Fish fruit, it will be relevant later :) can´t wait for the next episode.

Karatsuki

Jack I can't belive you've done this again Ace didn't have the Whitebeard tattoo on his back when he came to wano so that was obviously before he joined him. He had a crew called the Spade Pirates when he first set out to sea then that crew got smushed fighting Jinbei when Ace was trying to get to Whitebeard Puddings potential as poneglyph reader was revealed during wholecake and mentioned multiple times Also in Asian folklore Koi fish that get to the top of the waterfall transform into dragons

Karatsuki

What happens on Friday

Y0m0three

yeah not gonna lie, sometimes he is on point and sometimes this man is a massive goober I swear. Eastern dragons are related to fish, it's western dragons that are reptilian, like I swear Kaido's fruit has come up before and he didn't have a problem understanding it then. Not to mention the actual dragon-dragon class of zoans is already known to be used for dinosaurs and not actual dragons.

Roger van der Vliet

Next episode 1015 is peak piece, one of the best episodes ever made! Can't wait till friday

Alexander Bo

Kaido's devil fruit is the mythological Zoan fish-fish fruit, type azure dragon or Uo Uo no Mi, Model Seiryu. He received this fruit from Big Mom and also ate it. The manga explains it better: this Zoan fruit enables the transformation into a koi carp. However, this carp is a mythical creature from a Chinese fairy tale with the ability to transform into a dragon. This is where the ability to transform into a dragon comes from, even though it isn't a dragon-dragon devil fruit.

Log

Ace and Yamato bonding over their daddy issues while getting drunk is so relatable bro, I made some great friends doing the exact same thing lmao

Kaptin81

Will it be 1015 then 1016/1017 on the same day? Or just 1015 Friday?

Waywatcher Fireson

Ace doesn't call Yamato 'he' in Japanese either, btw. People just ignore all of this and cling to the biased English subtitles. Shinobu doesn't use "sir," either. She's just speaking formally.

Waywatcher Fireson

This isn't a spoiler since Oda had to reveal it in an SBS, but Kaidou's fruit is the Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryuu (Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon). Think eastern sea serpent, not a western mountain/cave dragon. In older speak (in various other languages too), sea dragons would have been considered 'fish' since they swim.

Flamingueax

Marco isn't a Logia, he's actually a Mythical Zoan. He literally does take the damage he receives, but he regenerates from the damage, being a Phoenix and all. when he was stabbed through and shot up, he basically just ate those, and pulled a wolverine on steroids' lol.

Saint Bonnie🎭™

Yeah I was gonna ask because that confused me too. like Wdym stand-alone vid

chrisis

friday needs to come yesterday

Fae

Ace X Yamato is lowkey my favorite ship in one piece!

Zoro9978

its lowkey not a ship its a friendship smh

SANJIS DEVELOPMENT DOESNT COME FROM FIGHTING WOMEN

Trijim

Fun fact that's not been said in the anime (At all as it's only been said in the SBS): Ulti and Page One's dad was an affiliate with Kaido's Crew, as he was the one who provided most of the Zoan Devil Fruits to his crew. His name was Hanafuda (Epithet: King of Lizards), who was also a previous Warlord of the Sea. He was defeated by Ace. Due to this and because of his strength in the short-time as a pirate, was the reason he was offered a Warlord Position. Also the fruit Kaido has is the Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon. The reasoning behind it being labeled the "Fish-Fish Fruit" is the connections between dragons and fish in East Asian mythology.

Waywatcher Fireson

@Sceptic Llama Yes, possibly. While that legend does exist, it's not explicit, even in the SBS. Oda doesn't seem to imply Kaidou's awakening was turning into a dragon anywhere. The fruit's model name was always Seiryuu, which means the creature was always a dragon, but classified as a fish. The Magikarp Kaidou idea seems to be a fan head-canon more than anything (though I do think it's hilarious and a great theory).

Luck64

Oh man 1015 is gonna be so great to see him react to, will be a rollercoaster

Bryant B

wheres next onepiece movies??:(

Gabriel

finally I can watch again. PEAK BEGINS. Roof Piece is One Piece at the best.

The Otter Man

Notably, Yamato consistently uses "boku" to self-identify. If you google "boku meaning," the first result is "In Japanese, 'boku' (僕) is a first-person pronoun meaning 'I' or 'me,' typically used by males, especially young men, in a casual or semi-formal manner. "

The Otter Man

stop limiting the information that you point out to suit your weird obsessive prerogative

DiamonDust

@minecraft עולם מגניב ישראל Do you not know what shipping is? It has nothing to do with if the romance is canon.

DiamonDust

Jack saying "does he not know how this works?" to Queen lmao (love you Jack). Marco is not Logia... his powers are far superior to Logia invulnerability. He ate a mythical zoan, the phoenix fruit, that gives him instant regeneration from any damage that he takes (including fatal damage like being stabbed in the head), in addition to giving him flight and fire attacks. It's one of the most busted fruits in the entire show. So Queen is confused because, yes, Queen is clearly using haki infused bullets OR seastone bullets (prob haki bullets if I had to guess). He does not understand how Marco's ability works at first because it is completely unique to Marco.

DiamonDust

@Y0m0three I don't think it has come up before, actually, and I wouldn't expect anyone to be familiar with that legend outside of Japan. Dinosaurs look like flightless dragons so that made sense, but making the connection between fish and dragons is not as straightforward. I really only blame him for losing track of Ace's timeline, but even then I suppose it is understandable since it wasn't really established in any kind of certain way that Ace was only at Wano one time.

Monsieur Sanji

Quite a few women use "Boku", usually as a sign of being tomboyish. Example: The lead singer of "Glim Spanky", Remi Matsuom that sung the ending of One Piece Film Gold "Ikari wo kureyo", is very openly a woman, yet only uses boku as a self honorific. So, sorry Otter man, that argument is irrelevant.

The Otter Man

Ok and many people/chartacters born female but later presenting as a man also use boku. As for the way they call Yamato "Young Master", the phrase used is almost exclusively used for male heirs, unless its a female-born character presenting themself as a male heir (one of my fav examples is Kyuubei from Gintama). The point is, I was just giving one example, but I could do this for literally dozens of terms that are used either by Yamato or others to indicate his status as a man.

The Otter Man

Sure you could pick out instances where it doesn't follow that pattern, but like I said on a previous post, that's like saying "bro" isn't male-specific in english because sometimes women can be called bro.

Waywatcher Fireson

@The Otter Man Once again, you're ignoring Oda's creative intent with Yamato being called bocchan. She was raised as a boy because Kaidou wanted a male heir. You can see this concept stated almost explicitly in Yamato's concept sketches. And she's based on another manga character with this exact same lore. I'm sorry you hate the truth about this issue, but the truth is the truth. I address the boku terminology elsewhere in one of these threads. The fact you reference Kyuubei from Gintama to support your case is hilarious. It's exactly the same trope Yamato is. Kyuubei is not a boy. She's a girl, and that's the whole point of her story. Your use of "presenting as" language reveals your ideological capture here.

The Otter Man

At what point in the source material does Kaido say he calls Yamato a son for that reason? Nowhere, because Yamato is very clear that he chose to become a man because Oden was a man. While it's a weird reasoning, there is no debate on that being the reason. As for Kyuubei, I chose that example because of how similar he is. And if you watched Gintama, Kyuubei has several scenes of self-realization of how he identifies with being a man completely separate from his upbringing. That said, there is still ambiguity and enough reasoning to still say Kyuubei is a girl, and either interpretation is acceptable.

The Otter Man

And I say "presenting as" because that is the language used to differentiate someone's biological sex from the gender they choose to present as, as well as the gender they identify as (in cases where someone does not present as the gender they identify with). Now, I'm gonna go ahead and predict that you disagree with the scientific consensus that gender identity can be separate from biological sex, in which case you're a lost cause.

Waywatcher Fireson

@The Otter Man It's like talking with a brick wall. You guys are insufferable.

The Otter Man

Right back atcha :) you refuse to see any worldview but your own, and then say exactly the same thing back at me. It's almost ironic if it wasn't so sad.

Blackest Hippy

any pokemon fan gets the reference 😤😂

Monsieur Sanji

You never dismantled my original point. The fact that they can be used in X or Y way is irrelevant since it CAN still and IS used by women. You're rather sexist, by assuming that women cannot be tomboys and use those phrasing and present in those stereotypically masculine ways without being men themselves, ridiculous logic. A single example I just gave you should be enough to dismantle your whole logic. Those terms are NOT used as absolutes on sex/gender in Japanese as they are in English. Deal. With. It. Call her what you want, but go impose your mentality someplace else

Takeo Ryuu

This is a really common theme in One Piece that a lot of people don't seem to understand. Character development in One Piece is never about overcoming your weaknesses and becoming perfect, it's about letting other people cover for your weaknesses and trusting them to do so with your entire life. Luffy literally says this theme word for word in Arlong Park, where he describes all the things he's incapable of doing (including lying, which is really funny), and then specifies that his job is just to beat Arlong. Sanji in Whole Cake gets a huge development but it isn't that he can hit women now or isn't a compassionate softie or pervert, it's that he finally lets his guard down completely towards his crew and trusts them to help him even when he's being stupid or selfish (ie: wanting to stay in Whole Cake to rescue his Nazi family instead of just easily run away, which ended up condemning Pedro to death, Luffy in a brutal fight with Katakuri, and the Straw Hats nearly getting smashed by Big Mom like ten times). Thus, in Wano, we finally get to see PROOF of this development, with what happens next regarding Black Maria. Same thing has always applied to every Straw Hat. Usopp felt insecure about his strength and cowardice and left the crew because of it. Did that arc end with him being strong and brave? No. It ended with him finally understanding that he doesn't NEED to be strong and brave to be with the Straw Hats. He just needs to be himself and help out however he can, which is a lot when he focuses on support. This is also why I never complain that much when we don't get many Robin, Chopper, or Nami fights. That part of the crew is certainly capable of fighting when they need to, but it is ultimately not really one of their strengths. The strong trio is there to protect the crew, and the others are mostly either support in combat, or put in charge of other important operations. Franky basically was just a valet during all of Punk Hazard, but if he hadn't recovered Sunny and the Mini-Merry, who would've? Robin didn't get a single fight in Dressrosa, but besides generally playing a support role she also helped protect Rebecca while Kyros fought his wife's murderer. Zoro is strong in a fight but the man is next to useless for every other part of sailing a ship and in some ways is almost a hindrance because of his terrible sense of direction. That scene where the crew battles the insane weather of the grand line and falls exhausted as Zoro wakes up and asks why everyone is resting and being lazy is a perfect example of his own weaknesses. Does that mean Zoro's character development should be becoming a competent crew member and good at directions? That would be silly. Yet people still expect that from Sanji. I tend to blame bad storytelling in general. A lot of people have become used to "character development" meaning characters just magically becoming completely different people and saying that it makes sense because people change. But in reality, that's not really how that works. Most people change very little outside of traumatic experiences and growing out of puberty and childhood, and most of what looks like change is actually external circumstances changing around them and them simply adapting to the new situation. Characters in One Piece to develop, but they tend to develop like people do in real life - slowly, and imperceptibly. Like if you compare Luffy in episode one to him now, he's clearly and obviously the same, goofy, fun-loving, optimistic, confident guy. (As people say in real life, growing up doesn't mean you have to become bitter and lose your creativity, it's often a choice people make to fit in with society) But he isn't exactly the same. Modern Luffy is more mature, a better leader, and understands how to deal with people better (after having fumbled with Usopp but learning his lesson and correctly approaching Sanji). Modern Luffy isn't full of false bravado like old Luffy, he has confidence because he is actually strong, but he's also able to recognize when his enemies are extremely strong as well. That's actual character development, but it just happens so gradually that many people miss it. This sort of slow but sure development happens with each Straw Hat, some more than others, but none of them have or ever will suddenly become a different person just because the fans want this illusionary unrealistic "character development" that some other media forces their characters through.

Chrysanthemum

I'm sure someone already explained this but the Mythical Type Fish Fish Fruit Model Asure Dragon is Kaidous fruit. It's the prophecy behind Magikarp and Gyarados in Pokemon as well to help ground it. The story is that if a Carp becomes strong enough to swim up a waterfall it will be granted Mythical powers and become a dragon. Ah la Fish Fish Fruit. Ah la Mythical. Ah la Asure Dragon that looks like Gyarados
