I straight up cannot think of X Drake as Diez Drake. I know its his name, in an academic sense, but my brain interprets it as a X before I can even think.

Here's a trick I used for a week: Associate X Drake with Deez Nuts.

Wait, what?

I've been calling him X all these years too, didn't even think twice about it!

Edit: More importantly though:

His name is Ex Drake and you pronounce the X in Hunter X Hunter and Spy X Family, and I will never buckle on any of that. :colbert:

They only exist for the former because editorial wouldn't let Togashi call his new manga "Hunter". I presume there's similar reasoning for why the latter isn't called "Spy Family".

It's not a letter, it's a really cool use of a roman numeral.

don't forget gun x sword and xxx holic, the convention of "you don't pronounce the x" is stronger in anime than doing anything else with it

If they wanted it to be pronounced Zeal then they shouldn't have put a random X in the middle of it :colbert:

If I recall correctly he is explicitly the source of Wapometal, a new metal that the Navy have been using to upgrade their weapons and stuff. Sorta makes sense he ended up with Vegapunk.

We offscreened the entire Reverie. Oda probably planned for it to get more screentime than "9 chapters, and then it's 4 straight years of Wano".
