I’m just glad all of the Supernovas seem to eventually be getting their character development as hoped. Still waiting on Urouge of course but it kinda makes sense he’d be last with the Skypiea arc and the foreshadowing of its importance.maybe im just coping bc i think itd be really cool if vegapunk was a woman but im interested if any of caesar/queen/judge have referred to them explicitly with male pronouns or if it has been more ambiguous. like sparksblade said im sure people will dig up old panels in the next week but i was under the impression that vegapunk is very secretive and the only people who have met them are high ranking marines, MADS, and sentomaru.
also pretty sus to me that bonney is there explicitly to meet with vegapunk when old timer speech in young body. especially with her last appearance before reverie being akainu capturing her from blackbeard right before the timeskip. would make a lot of sense to me if vegapunk was experimenting with bonneys fruit and thats why she has business with vegapunk and also how she got away from WG bc vegapunk ambiguous morals.
super excited for bonney tho! she's one of my favorite supernovas and there's so many interesting plot threads that she intersects with, really hyped to see where oda goes with her character
to be fair a CHIMP had that black blade too (or at least a copy of it) so I wouldn't put past them to replicate them tooalso the mihowk-seraphim seems to have a very large sword just like the real man himself. is that an attempted copy of the yoru? or just a large blade to match the blade-to-man proportions o_o
you're a few hundred episodes from that. also enjoy you're prolly at peak one piece fun for around a hundred episodesNot reading anything posted because it seems like all stuff that would spoiler what happens later (I’m only on episode 207 lol) but
What’s up with that meme that’s been going around where the guy is saying “The One Piece is reeeeeal” and then you hear the Kanye song after? Is it something that I just don’t get because I’m not far enough into the show? Or is it just a meme that’s a meme because it’s a meme lol
It's a quote from the show. One of Better Call Saul's actors was paid to say that quote and after that it blew up.Not reading anything posted because it seems like all stuff that would spoiler what happens later (I’m only on episode 207 lol) but

i'm caught up and i don't get it either, which is extra frustrating bc i am both a one piece and an MBDTF lover. but i have been reassured that it's "tiktok anime bullshit"Not reading anything posted because it seems like all stuff that would spoiler what happens later (I’m only on episode 207 lol) but

Even though Yamato identifies as Kozuki Oden, it’s quite explicit that she’s biologically female. If you want to refer to her by the gender that she identifies with, that’s fine, but there’s nothing wrong with calling her a girl either.Hey uh, didn't the manga pretty explicitly call out Yamato as male? Could we stop misgendering him please?
iirc in a vivre card or something oda wrote yamato's gender as female and not male (kiku's is written female) and yamato's identity seems to be aimed at just one person instead and therefore using the pronoun of that person instead of identifying as a male. i'm not saying it's just some silly roleplay btwHey uh, didn't the manga pretty explicitly call out Yamato as male? Could we stop misgendering him please?
this reasoning is just wrong cos you shouldn't call kiku a guy x_x that reasoning doesn't hold in real world and in one pieceEven though Yamato identifies as Kozuki Oden, it’s quite explicit that she’s biologically female. If you want to refer to her by the gender that she identifies with, that’s fine, but there’s nothing wrong with calling her a girl either.
Edit: obviously don’t do this for non-fictitious people; you’ll just end up hurting their feelings that way
The introduction page for Yamato introduces her as "Kaido's daughter" and this is supported by other supplemental materials such as the aforementioned vivre cards. It's not clear cut at all and both interpretations of the character (and either pronoun choice) are valid based on textual evidence. It's not like ppl misgendering Kiku who is explicitly stated to be a trans woman by the textHey uh, didn't the manga pretty explicitly call out Yamato as male? Could we stop misgendering him please?
Do they even get referred to by male or female pronouns? I haven't read enough of the original Japanese to know, but in that language "he" and "she" are used exceedingly rarely, only in niche circumstances--Yamato doesn't get offended by being called female or by female pronouns being used on her. She doesn't what to be a guy, she wants to be THE guy, Kozuki Oden. Kiku is very clearly a trans woman, Yamato is a someone who wants to be someone else. I don't think she's trans and due to her circumstances, either pronouns should work
So yeah, One Piece fucking slaps recently. I was so disappointed by the ending and epilogue of Wano, but every chapter afterwards was incredible. Shit's starting to get real and seeing Vegapunk, the SSG, CP0, Teach in action and all these other things that we've been waiting for since years if not decades is amazing. Legit one of the most exciting times to be a OP fan
Blackbeard being anything but the final boss would be weird to me, even with Im etc existing.From what I understand, Egghead seems to be the final expository arc to set up Laugh Tale. Could we get Eblaf and/or Pirate Island between this and Lodestar? That'd make sense if we need to see the final Road Poneglyph before heading to Lodestar. On top of that, wouldn't it make more sense for Blackbeard to be fought before the World Government, rather than having a three-way fight?
Yeah, I find the idea weird too. I could only imagine another three-way fight.Blackbeard being anything but the final boss would be weird to me, even with Im etc existing.
I'd prefer vs. BB and then have vs WG as the finale.Blackbeard being anything but the final boss would be weird to me, even with Im etc existing.
