Ghost Leviathan posted:There has been the running theme that all of Usopp's old tall tales keep on coming true as he adventures through the Grand Line, he's even said that he's become able to do things he used to only boast about. I love that, especially the one about a Giant Goldfish who poops islands.

Usopp will be recognized as a god of truth. Specifically whenever he meets a giant he tells them a truth that sets them free. Also I'm hella paranoid that we haven't seen Oden yet. And Elbaf is rules by Loki. I hope Oda is doing it again to connect Wano to Elbaf.

Tolth posted:I didn't really notice until today that Stealth Black is quite literally the fully-actualized version of Mr Prince. Like, those are Sanji's alter egos pre and post resolving his family issues. Mr Prince is a veiled reference to his background as a... prince, Stealth Black is Sanji actually formally and explicitly admitting to being that prince. Yep, it's definitely character development. The Monster Trio have all gotten character development in Wano, in my opinion. Luffy's been acting even more like a future Pirate King and a leader, Zoro's been learning how to manage his little family (j/k, or am I?), and Sanji accepted his lineage, though he's admitted he still hates them. I want character development for every Straw Hat that leads to them being their Yonkou-level crew selves and I think this is the arc.

oh man I can't wait for when Oda does that first chapter in Elbaf and he makes everything look normal until there's a "for this is the land of giants" text box and you see the thousand sunny looking positively miniscule

Some of the islands are implied to be up to Madagascar sized at least, Alabasta is certainly very big. Elbaf might be Australia sized. While the One Piece world clearly doesn't have traditional continents, and the Red Line seems implied to be remote to the point of borderline uninhabitable without heavy infrastructure due to being sheer cliffs almost all the way around, there's clearly a lot of islands large enough to sustain multiple towns and cities and significant amounts of agriculture. And Nami's whole rarely brought up quest implies that the world in general is pretty poorly mapped (hence why Arlong valued her expertise, since she's a prodigy at it) so a lot of people probably don't know what's just beyond their own horizon.

Cat Machine posted:That's a great way of looking at it, actually. I wonder if Usopp's character arc will conclude similarly with him accepting the Sogeking persona in some way. Shin Sogeking?? Sogeking Ace??? Sogeking Seven??? I think the natural conclusion to that arc is Usopp putting on the mask out of bravery rather than cowardice. Every previous use of the persona has been to shore up his own insecurities or fears. We'll know Usopp has truly become a Brave Warrior Of the Sea when he puts on the mask because he finds a sobbing child on a battlefield who's calling out for a hero, or similar. And it will make me cry.

Eh, a big thing about Usopp is that he's relatively sensible about going into absurdly dangerous situations and tends to be terrified and getting by on lies and chutzpah, but when push comes to shove he will not back down from even superior opponents and do absolutely everything it takes to win to a shocking degree that often surprises foes because they don't understand just how dirty and whimsical his fighting style is. (he's basically Dennis the Menace as a shonen hero) He's more the type to go "Don't worry kid, I'm ALSO pissing my pants terrified, but I'm going to keep fighting because I know that's the only way out of this!"

He already did something similar when he came back for the Tontatta in Dressrosa, admitted he wasn't the hero he told them he was, but that he was going to be right there and then. Then God Usopp happened.

I’m honestly really happy the scans are dead (or incapacitated like the impel down awakened animal zoans). Everyone shoulda dropped those stupid scan sites the second the official releases became free
