Speaking of Sabo, where does he rank on popularity pills relative to Ace? It could explain a lot about boosting his popularity as pseudo-Ace

First it was right when it opened with New Genesis, because I had been feeling a bit cruddy immediately before the show and Ado's voice really lifted my spirit and I think the second time was when World's Continuation came on

the plot in Film Red is complete nonsense, but it had a lot of cool stuff in it, and that's how these anime movies tend to go

Shanks and his crew seem to be set up as unambiguously good guys in a story that I assume Oda had to approve to some degree. kind of makes me assume he's not going to have a heelturn in the manga

Film Red was kind of a hot mess but at least the music slapped. Did anyone watch the dub? I was wondering how well the music was handled. There were a lot of little teases, such as what is (presumably) Shanks' surname, CP0 being aware of and weirdly chill with SWORD (I thought it was like a secret rebel cell of Marines?) and Luffy outright saying that he wants to be the Pirate King to start a "new age" (I don't think he's ever said anything vaguely like that before aside from "I want people to be able to eat"??)

The first poll he was in had him as just above Ace, which pissed me off to no end. The recent international poll had him at just below Ace, which is a slight relief.

Didn’t CP0 murder X Drake despite knowing he was a member of SWORD? It doesn’t make much sense for them to be buddies after that (though like many shonen anime movies I guess this isn’t really trying to fit into the timeline anyway).

I thought the implication was that Drake and Hawkins both died, but I admit it wasn’t especially clear. At the very least, Drake wasn’t at the end-of-arc party the way Apoo was.

Just a friendly reminder of what it looks like.

We'll do punctuation later.
cp0 and sword pretty clearly do not get along in the actual manga and even their names kinda play off each other - cp0's full name is cipher pol aegis zero, with aegis being the mythological shield etc.

drake's death wasn't confirmed and it wouldn't really surprise me if he shows up again - like, we just met a whole bunch of other marines from sword not too long ago. hawkins seems much more likely to be dead now but you never know with oda

Has anyone updated the manga-updates one piece page with the post apocalyptic tag yet

I mean I've always thought it was set long after a time when humanity was a tier 1 civilization or higher, considering how much of the world has been clearly manipulated. the red line has to have been done using some sort of immense terraforming equipment

Shabadu posted:

My pet theory after seeing the giant ancient robot design is that at some point all the current Giants WERE robots, and whatever happened in the void century with JoyBoy/Nika caused them to become free and proper living beings. It could tie into the giant straw hat we saw in Marijoa.
I am almost positive that this is literally a world of warcraft plot point:

I forget the specifics but from what I can vaguely remember: basically all living entities used to be mechanical celestial beings created by the gods that were basically transformer-style sentient robots. Then at one point one of the mechanical gods got corrupted by The Old Gods, eldritch beings native to the planet, and infected everything with the Curse of Flesh, turning all the mechanical races into the standard biological fantasy races etc, and they are now considered tainted, imperfect and unsalvageable by the mechanical gods

I'm sure I got a bunch of it wrong and also they've probably hosed that storyline up at some point since I stopped playing over a decade ago, but it was a pretty fascinating idea still, and sounds kinda like what your idea is

Film-related, but not really a spoiler about it:

I didn't treat the movie scene as them all being "buddies" though...more like professional rivals, yet they still needed to cooperate grudgingly in this very specific context.

To get in you have to correctly answer a question each about Criminal Fashion, Soul King's Discography, and the World Economy News. Since you're only up to Enies Lobby, I doubt you can answer the usher's quiz.

If you can sneak in though, you'll probably get some spoilers for future arcs you haven't read yet.

DU WIRST NIEMALS ALLEINE MARSCHIEREN

upon a reread, the lines from franky / lilithvegapunk seem kinda meaningful. idk why i didn't notice it more on the first read.

fire can be converted to any type of energy. ace was fire, sabo is fire, okay those are both good. sanji's notably able to conjure fire, luffy's able to conjure fire (sorta?).

"i can make my own sun". was the original joy boy "made"? was nika "made"?

the anime has REALLY been hammering home luffy's connection with... the moon? in the wano adaptation. check this clip out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKPXbHW7J7U at the 30-35 second mark. it's so blatant that they're connecting "smiling" with "the moon" for some reason.

theres something here but i can't put my finger precisely on what

Maybe Drake has never even done a single day of actual pirating in his life. It's all just false reports fed to the news and falsified records. His crew are all members of one of the lesser CP groups who only show up to play pirate at public events.
