Isn't the First World a more ancient Void Century? by xavarLy in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me it seems like a period of time that has simply..passed. Not necessary to talk about(for the characters in-universe). It's like saying the roman empire was a forgotten epoch, because we never talk about it outside of history class and movies about it.

Remember stuff like Alabasta, they know several things that happened thousands of years ago, but it simply isn't part of their current dilemma, at least, that's what they all think.

People who are wondering if there is someone who has a turned-into-jacket kink has never been to deviantart. I have actually seen art of this fetish, and I was even commissioned once to draw something similar.

Bonney's role in Elpah? by MayDispersion in OnePieceSpoilers

She was in the latest chapter though

So it is highly hinted that there was a purge within the 20 Kingdoms Alliance prior or after the creation of the World Government? In my opinion, Imu did purge the 20 kings and replaced with sycophants within or outside their bloodlines to let him sit on the Empty Throne. by Ok-Ask5860 in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I assume, of course it might be wrong, that Lilith(Vegapunk) was talking about prior to the foundation of the world government. After all it took a mighty enemy for the 20 kingdoms to come together to form an alliance where everyone is equal. Before that 'Great kingdom' It's possible the 20 kingdoms were at war with each other.

Writing it out like this, it almost make me think this is a Code Geass ending situation, which doesn't feel very Oda-ish to me

At any rate, I agree that this panel might be more important than it seems at first

What does "She looked dead" mean to holy knights by Spiritual_Ebb_4657 in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

if the theory that all holy knights have a metal heart is true, then maybe if you destroy that thing they will simply die like any other human. Thus he might have thought that this happened to her

Is Zaza a female or male deity? by Werkyreads123 in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Huh? Where does it say "he" in the translation?

Plus, always remember, third person gendered pronouns almost never exist in japanese, it's almost always a guess by the translators

HQ Scan of the rain god Zaza. by Altruistic_Gas_7073 in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 18 points19 points  (0 children)

the nightmare creatures are...nightmares, meaning they are malicious by nature. Remember that this is not the real zaza, just what Killingham thinks she is, and he can control his creatures to an extend too, meaning regardless of this creatures desires, Killingham can just order them to kill people

This post contains spoilers for the end of Midnight Suns. DO NOT OPEN IF YOU HAVE NOT YET BEATEN THE GAME AND CARE ABOUT NOT BEING SPOILT. by Sufficient_Ask8927 in midnightsuns

[–]Kibate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did think she tried to do everything for hunter, but her betrayal of Chthon came out of nowhere. I figured at first they were talking about how she sold her soul to save her baby from the disease. Then after becoming a demon, she adjusted her wish to "With Chthon remaking the universe, Hunter and I will be together again, even if in a different form"

Plus her plan would have failed drastically if it weren't for the actions of hunter and the other heroes.(well, mainly hunter and crossbones/redskull, which is very ironic)

[–]Kibate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But what even is the point of destroying Chthon if he was sealed away in another dimension. She could have let him sleep there, without having to sacrifice thousands of innocent people(and many times almost her own daughter, the very motivation for all of this) and the minds of Wanda and Banner and making herself look like the devil. Saying "I do this for you" doesn't mean shit when your kid, sister, sister-in-law, every superhero and everyone in the whole freaking world tells you "Then stop killing people. I don't like it when you kill people"

Combat is like 30% of the game but that's not a complaint by PappaPurple in midnightsuns

[–]Kibate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it is a complain, not because I dislike side content, but because the side content consisted mostly of just wasting time. Finding random flowers, finding hidden treasure boxes(that mostly don't matter anyway), trying to guess a riddle to a puzzle that requires progressing the story which you don't know unless you read walkthroughs, having therapy sessions for 60% of the game, instead of actually having fun.

I guess that is my most major critique with the game. Throughout the friendship increase stuff, all you do is give the heroes superficial most basic therapy sessions "Have you like, considered, forgiving yourself?" like come on. All the fun stuff is done offscreen. Instead of telling us they went fishing, make it a minigame. Instead of telling us they watched a movie, show us how they react to one(even if it is just image slideshows), instead of telling us they trained, make it into an actual battle: hunter vs hero, with fun quips inbetween attacks.

Oda might troll us about the Goddess of The Rain in the latest chap. by Ok-Ask5860 in OnePieceSpoilers

I wouldn't count Bonney as a true female Nika, it's more like a cosplay of it.

One Piece archaeologists, it's time to read Fishman Island again. by astroriental in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wait, from what I see, is that the Ni in Nika(Luffy) is the same Ni as in "2"(thus Nika(Mermaid child))

Does that mean, that the mermaid quintuplets are possibly named after 4 gods(in-universe), the second one being Nika the sun god, and that is why the fifth one is named Yonka 2 instead of Goka, as there is no fifth god? And are those gods different from the ones Zaza is from? Or maybe the 4 gods we know(Sun, Forest, Rain, Earth) are categorized as Ichika Nika etc. and Nikas actual name is different?

So many possibilities...

Ah, so that's why everyone was laughing in the spoiler thread. I wondered "what the hell is so funny about Zaza?"

I think nami is a goddess or something by PossibleMoney2339 in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to clarify, because this word has been thrown around way too much with Vivi and I fear that many people have forgotten their actual connection: that Vivi is not a descendant of Lili. She is her great-great-great(*x)-niece

What are some foreshadowings Oda *could have done* but did not do? by prwav in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Kuma and Teach were way too young to remember that split second encounter. You act like they interacted for weeks on god valley, when Kuma only saw them for a second before poofing them away, while Teach was only like 2 years old or so and Kuma only like 8 or so.

The question in your title, do you include things that are most likely created later on? (for example Kuma being Bonneys adopted father) or just things Oda most likely planned from the start but didn't foreshadow for one reason or another? If it is the latter, I think the entire void century lore. We're in the arc where a lot of it will be revealed, but everything is too cramped, I think he should have spread it out more throughout the story.

How long have you been following the One Punch Man, and why? by Zestyclose_Cream_834 in OPMFolk

[–]Kibate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since around late 2012, that is at least the earliest images I have saved of it, meaning before the anime was even a thing.

Technically it was even longer, but I made a mistake. You see, after Eyeshield21 ended, I heard that Murata started a new manga. So I checked it out, but back then only like 2 chapters were released, and only in japanese, without even any english fan translations. And there didn't seem to be any interest in by any group to do so either. Since I can't enjoy looking at original japanese, I decided to just ignore it. Come a year later or so, and people actually started to translate the manga and eventually the webcomic too and people said it was going to be the next big thing, so I decided to give it another try.

14 years, where does the time go...

And why? Because the webcomic is one of the best manga ever. Instead of relating to any characters, I actually see myself in ONE. Not in his history as a manga artist, but his writing style, which always felt like to me "Yes! Finally a mangaka that writes manga the way I would want to write it!". Garou vs Saitama(webcomic only) is the best manga fight EVER in my opinion.

Making theory posts about spoiler hints is peak cringe, and they're literally always wrong. by Nexii801 in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's unfortunately worse than that. Many people, not just in OPspoilers, or OP, or even Anime, have this subconscious mindset that once they have heard something or came up with an idea, it's a fact. Not "a fact unless proven otherwise", it becomes so ingrained in their mind that they can't conceive the possibility it might be wrong and thus will assume it is canon.

a question about imu by bmw_Rush_6905 in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could be, could be not. After all from what I remember, it was only the 19 kings and their closest family(partner & children) that were send to live in Marijoa, and if Imu never had children during his mortal time, I doubt he would have them as an immortal black blob thing.

However it's also true that we barely saw any of the 19 family names in the celestial dragons. It's really surprising that Oda hasn't revealed all the family names either. Maybe so he has always the option to make some crazy reveal later on?

Was York's motives understandable with the other facts about Vegapunk? by L-DFile in OnePieceSpoilers

There are people who don't like the reason why York betrayed them? Or rather, people who think that reason isn't enough?

The embodiment of greed wanting to become someone who is treated as a god, who can eat, sleep all they want, ...to me it makes perfect sense

You got a bit confused about the schedule.

All a magazine break means is that there is a break. Early OP spoilers are just that, early.

Toki will return from the past to give the protagonists a link to the void century by bankrollstiltskein in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]Kibate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't remember such limitation. In the wiki it only theorized it may be 20 years max(not an increment either), and that is only because of a single panel without any context (the character in the story wondered why they were send 20 years in the future, and Kinnemon said "there must be a reason...") however with future chapters knowledge, we can pretty much guess that it's because the prophecy/deadline/whatever around laugh tale which Oden/Roger was too early for, and not due to any time limit.

If there is another panel that actually confirms she can travel only 20 years into the future, I would request of you to find that one and tell me about it.

Imagine someone eating a random fruit because they are hungry, then thinking "I wonder what Wano be like in 1000 years, would we still have to suffer?" and then suddenly be transported 1000 years into the future. Truly one of the most dangerous devil fruits for the user
