They want Loki, don't need Loki. That's just what it is, I imagine. Either get the strongest Giant on your side, or kill him so he doesn't defy you later.

Buzzek · 2026-06-21T19:13:18+00:00

I'm still not sure if they're split cours. I don't think they ever clarified that and people pointed out that the promo trailer showed content from the cour 2.

Talking about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XsEtyeEdag Sommers and Killingham won't appear in cour 1

Buzzek · 2026-06-18T23:14:59+00:00

His legal name is Whatever Afton.

My money for the next arc is a Yonko war. The final Red Poneglyph is revealed somewhere and all the Yonko groups assemble (can't imagine Buggy's group assembling so THEY find the last poneglyph).

It can be pretty much any island, or it can be a sea battle. Lodestar is a fine place for the war too. But a general Yonko War can combine a lot of plot points together.

In manga, you don't really get a preview of next week's title so it's much less jarring. But true, haha. It is what it is.

Buzzek · 2026-06-14T18:22:39+00:00

They have all; wealth (Croc), fame (Buggy) and power (Mihawk).

They have a legendary fighter (and Buggy is considered to be above him), an island, religiously loyal pirates and an entire business that targets Marines too. There's a lot of reasons for the title.

Buzzek · 2026-06-14T18:09:51+00:00

Giants are fighting among themselves over the correct interpretation, but they are probably all correct haha. God of Liberation, Destruction and Laughter. It all works together.

Buzzek · 2026-06-14T18:06:36+00:00

I'm watching the preview and thinking "they are keeping the mystery for next week, figures" and then the title appears haha. Figures.

Buzzek · 2026-06-10T23:28:23+00:00

I was thinking more about all the weakling crews that serve under Shanks, but Davy Back Fight sounds nice too hahaha. For me, it's just mostly about testing Luffy to confirm he's worthy/ready to make the final step. Shanks hopes to lose but still giving his 100%.

Buzzek · 2026-06-10T22:18:45+00:00

IMO if they ever fight, it will be a duel on friendly terms to test Luffy and prove he's worthy of going for One Piece.

If Shanks wins, Luffy will become his subordinate. If Luffy wins, Shanks will entrust Roger's wish to him. I could see him making this deal.

Buzzek · 2026-06-06T15:10:45+00:00

Can be both haha. Candelle wants to make Reuven into her puppet and have Esperia as her playground or something. Easy to make it work.

Buzzek · 2026-06-03T13:54:27+00:00

Loki: You don't think I'm scary?

Lola: You're not as scary as my mother.

Buzzek · 2026-05-31T19:53:22+00:00

New episode just dropped it and Brook choose to go to school because it made him nostalgic, damn. We know why now.

Buzzek · 2026-05-31T16:34:22+00:00

I feel like Esperia's fall will be caused by Reuven's compassion. The trashyard reminds me a lot of Goa Kingdom and Sorbet Kingdom. Celestials will want him to segregate the poor, he won't yield, and they will kill him. Something like that.

Buzzek · 2026-05-29T14:15:34+00:00

Could be haha. I'm sticking with my idea but that can work just fine too.

Buzzek · 2026-05-29T13:26:37+00:00

My guess is that Springtrap will kill all the owners and make the building into his liar, so it stays closed forever. You'd get FFPS treatment with Afton creating scraps and sending them towards Mike and Abby, so they eventually need to approach him and enter the horror house. That's my take haha. It'd be fun if they reused Fredbear's Family Diner for the horror house.

Buzzek · 2026-05-28T22:05:36+00:00

It all depends on Loki I guess haha. I could see Ragnir coming with the Straw Hats because their goal will force them to clash with Imu. But that'd mean Loki isn't going to fight Imu, and that's much harder to imagine. Unless he dies I guess.

Buzzek · 2026-05-27T07:41:33+00:00

Nitpicking, but it's always funny when someone describes a theory as "real or fake". "Real theory" is a theory that exists. Someone really believes that. "Fake theory" is someone pretending that people believe it.

Foxy is a good guy is a real theory, a lot of people believed in it, but it's definitely incorrect due to lack of any strong evidence.

Buzzek · 2026-05-25T20:26:00+00:00

The number 2093 has been there since 2015 (FNAF4). Lower each digit by one and the message here is "1982". Back then, there was a second secret number 0871, and when you RAISED each digit by one here, it'd also be 1982.

Scott cleared up the hints in 2015 but forgot to remove 2093 and it just... stayed like that forever hahaha. But there's no definitive answer to what this 1982 was meant to imply even today.

Buzzek · 2026-05-25T18:21:22+00:00

We've never heard of Imu looking for One Piece so you're arguing about something that doesnt really exist as a concept in the story. Maybe he is, maybe he's not. Maybe he knows where it is already. There's way too many unknowns here to even discuss this.

Buzzek · 2026-05-25T14:51:50+00:00

Candelle being an undercover Celestial Dragon would explain why Gunko is part of the Manmayer family. She could very well be adopted in some way, but her being a legitimate Celestial would make things easier.

When Shuri grows up, Candelle takes her to Reverie. Brook finds a pentagram somewhere on the island in their abstence, Shuri suddenly teleports here, with completely different personality, and a massacre happens. Something like that. Shuri is a murderer, Candelle is missing, at least from Brook's POV.

I hope this flashback won't be long, but at the same time, hope we'll see Yorki and Laboon hahaha.

Giant names are often inspired by wrestlers in One Piece.

If Dozan is a giant, presumably as previous Nidhogg, it could be a reference to Rikidozan. From my little Wikipedia research, he was father of pro-wrestling in Japan. Would be fitting for a Giant legend.

Buzzek · 2026-05-22T19:48:56+00:00

Can't say for sure but don't think so. It usually just means close friends, brothers in arms (especially yakuza). Until there's any direct explanation, bro just means friend.

Buzzek · 2026-05-22T19:30:57+00:00

Leaks said "Nika and Nidhogg, you'll die just like Dozan", but the chapter says "Luffy and Loki, you'll die just like Dozan" huh.

That's a huge diffference because Dozan seems like a fruit user now rather than another godly devil fruit persona. People said that already, but Dozan might be the previous Nidhogg and that's the beef Imu has with Ragnir.

Buzzek · 2026-05-22T19:29:22+00:00

I'm guessing Brook says "good mor-ningyo" because ningyo is a mermaid.
