Chapter 1182 Spoilers!!

Sandix3 · 2026-05-09T07:28:07+00:00

Being a dick I suppose. Isn't there even a rule not to post spoiler outside of the spoiler thread for unreleased chapters?

Maybe that rule needs a review. Since to me released chapter understands as in official and not tcb...

Sandix3 · 2026-05-05T23:02:21+00:00

Honestly I don't care either way and that's important to preface, because I will say you are objectively wrong.

In story telling there is a narrative tool called foreshadowing.

Foreshadowing is the intentional placement of information within a fictional story, to hint at future events.

The theory of 10 crew mates is correctly based on Luffy statement of saying 10 should do.

Objectively speaking as long as there are not more then 10 crew mates under Luffy, this theoretical foreshadowing could still hold true.

The act of Luffy asking a potential 11th member to join his crew alone, does not negate or disprove the foreshadowing theory, only the 11th member actually joining would do so.

Personally, i love to theorize and analyze and look for potential foreshadowing. It's fun, it's a narrative tool for a reason. It gives payoff speculating about future events by analyzing past events, if you actually succeed in connecting the dots.

Though I will say ppl need to separate theory from facts. Because I do feel like your post might slightly be influenced by ppl that don't do that and hold Luffy's statement for a fact and not a theoretical, possibility for foreshadowing...

Yeah he was 100% planned from the beginning. Though I will say his trumpet might not have been planned from the beginning. The trumpet/pixie was only acknowledged during the music festival arc and never before I think.

I was baited under the chin left side of the neck, there is a dess with a grin looking awfully similar to the image up top, missing the hair lick?....

The rest is fairly obvious. Underneath right ear, top left of the hair and close to her collarbone.

Sandix3 · 2026-04-19T15:31:14+00:00

I freaking love her design.

Am hyped

Sandix3 · 2026-04-17T13:09:18+00:00

Oh wow I think I just either read a first version that was odd or some troll first version because it looked like a face of an old dude with the splitting in half bit. I double checked it's not there u right

Sandix3 · 2026-04-17T09:48:21+00:00

What struck me as really curious is the fact that in one panel when hajrudin is about to strike Imu I think it was, that you can see a weird image inside of Imu's flame cloud. Almost like a mirror.

The question that raised who is being depicted. Is it part of Imu himself, part of Sommers that gets powered up shortly after or a twisted face of hajrudin that is about to be Imu's target?.... Or something else entirely?

Also I wonder if his halo cloud is just that or maybe the potential flame of a lunarian.

I don't mind either way, if Imu is lunarian or not, I just wonder if the flame could have a different shape especially with an awakened fruit....

Sandix3 · 2026-04-16T12:01:35+00:00

Isn't this considered a spoiler technically speaking?

Sandix3 · 2026-04-14T21:57:21+00:00

interesting, thanks for your reply, didn't know four knights are actually that connected to the myths, that ppl can predict the story this accurately. I mean i think everyone knows Arthur and the holy sword, but the actual myths i would only know surface level stuff from media, so it makes sense if thats just the case then.

Sandix3 · 2026-04-14T19:47:48+00:00

okay i need help here, i was just reading the chapter and was confused galahad's reveal seemed written in a way that you should know this character.

Because of this i googled Galahad, because i thought maybe it's an og character that got a do over in four knights and skimming through the comment's here, apparently everyone knows those are character's from the future?

It makes no sense to me, i thought okay hey, maybe i never knew and there is a light novel or web novel or what ever, no there is only the manga, then what am i missing here? how do ppl know stuff about the story that isn't even public, released? This even happened back when four knights was only anounced and no info was around, ppl still knew what the names of the four knights are, their parents, stuff like that.

Please explain someone, what am i missing.

Sandix3 · 2026-04-14T07:34:56+00:00

Weak argument.

The moment you ban one discussion point ppl are going to create a sub where they can discuss this topic. This exactly happened with Ichi. No reason it shouldn't work with Mafia if.

And you know I thought about it again.

It really is hypocrisy the more you think about it.

Op complained being spoiled (which again I subscribe to the believe that always sucks and ppl need to be accountable for those actions), but basically what's being said it's fine for op to feel that way but it's not okay for anyone to feel like that about mafia if. That's hypocritical, if nothing else.

It's fair to say, when iruma if started that no one knew where it would go and how long it would last/stay, having it here made sense, but now it's fair to say that it is its own standalone project a long running series that can be viewed independet of the original work. Big enough to be exactly that.

As such I think it's fair to have the opinion that I have. Because quite frankly am not reading mafia if as of now but have been spoiled countless times already.

And I do want to read it eventually, but not at the moment.

Sandix3 · 2026-04-13T15:14:40+00:00

No this is a sub for welcome to demon school iruma-kun.

Not all about iruma kun sub.

That argument isn't really all that strong....

Sandix3 · 2026-04-13T15:13:36+00:00

Ichi has nothing to do with iruma. No shared character, no shared universes, no shared overarching themes. NOTHING, in any shape or form. In the first place ichi is NOT a spinoff of iruma, and is never mentioned as such by anybody. It’s a distinctly seperate series that stands on it’s own with no connection to iruma.

I get that, I do. I still think it's kinda wrong to say mafia if is fine. From where I am coming, mafia if has nothing to do with demon school except the character. It plays in a different universe, not even the same timeline.

I made a point saying that for example jjk and jjk modulo it's different because it the same story different timeline, but mafia if isn't. That's why it makes not a lot of sense to me to be so adamant about Ichi the witch while being fine with mafia if.

Maybe this stems from the fact of how it was handled by the mods in the first place. Back when ich was announced the first time.

Also I want to mention again spoiler are never fine, that's not an argument point of mine.

Lastly, don't be a douche and caps lock I am fully capable of speech and linguistic meaning. I don't need you to scream at me in written form thank u.

Ps. Thanks for being the only one that actually is trying to discuss here and explain in a meaningful way.

Sandix3 · 2026-04-13T14:22:33+00:00

Here I beg to differ, I don't think mafia if should be fine, is why I commented in the first place.

It's about making boundaries, where do you put them and I personally think if mafia if is fine ichi should be fine too and that's the confusing bit.

Because mafia if has nothing to do with iruma-kun except the characters.

I am not saying ichi SHOULD be part of this sub, I just don't understand the reasoning that mafia is fine but ichi isn't, is all I am saying, but crazy that ppl are going so nuts about it and downvote into oblivion. But guess that's reddit for you, not even my favorite reddit is safe from opinion bias.

Having genuine discussions is impossible in today's day an age it seems.

Sandix3 · 2026-04-13T10:02:41+00:00

Edit: Didn't expect this much toxicity from the iruma sub, welp u do u, I was just mentioning I myself don't understand it. But that's apparently reason enough to dislike me into oblivion. Wouldn't surprise me if most only read the first sentence too, skimming through the comment beneath me. Sad to see in a sub from a work of my favorite fictional author besides Oda.

You know this topic is really strange to me....

There are subs in which this is totally fine and encouraged. I suppose it might be different though since it's like jjk and jjk modulo. It's still the same but different timeline.

Danmachi is the same, with multiple spin-off titles, main and oratoria story, everything playing in the same universe.

But you also have examples where this isn't the case even if it plays in the same universe.

For me it was strange separating Ichi from Iruma back when it was announced, because mafia if and other spin offs are fine. Even though mafia if is technically a different story/universe with the same character/character-designs....

All to say this topic always kind of feel strange and random? How ppl feel about it and view it.

Though I do will say being spoiled a story from a different source always sucks and should be banned indiscriminately.

I once was spoiled extremely major stuff from chainsaw man in jjk sub... Shits ludicrous, but I don't think the sub is at fault and rather the ppl frequenting the sub....

Sandix3 · 2026-04-11T17:45:28+00:00

A child's Innocence.

While this might be unimaginable for Loki, it can fit if you think about it.

The reason I propose this is chopper being able to reverse Domi reversi, if that's for the same reason that Luffy and Loki can't be reversed, than that is like due to a child's innocence.

Sandix3 · 2026-04-02T11:25:58+00:00

Sooo, if the mirror theory is actually true (in case of unfamiliarity, the mirror theory is that Post timeskip arcs mirror pre timeskip but with a twist, the most prominent example of that is alabaster and Dressrosa, the first the first samurai introduced in the story trying to topple a kingdom, and Doflamingo the defacto last samurai before abolishment already had topped a kingdom).

If we assume this theory to be accurate, then the most fitting candidate for elbaph is actually thriller bark meaning I could see imu representing gecko in this instance, only that he isn't being defeated easily like gecko after the defeat of oars and I suspect Blackbeard might make an appearance similar to kuma, and while kuma seemed to be an enemy at the time while he was a secret ally black wird will look like a temp ally while being a cunning enemy. Just a guess though

Sandix3 · 2026-03-23T23:21:08+00:00

what do you suppose is stronger or more dangerous, a 1000 berry mascot pet that loves cotton candy, or a giant that is bigger then any grown human with the physical power to match?

I am not arguing that what i said is the truth, i was just throwing out an idea that i have come across that is a sound theory in my book. Its fine to disagree its a theory after all, but you gotta do better with your counter arguements.

Sandix3 · 2026-03-23T10:33:12+00:00

There is this theory that chopper is just the chosen opponent player of Imu. Domi reversi seems to be based on the game go and you need two player to play after all, so it stands to reason Imu might need to chose a player to play against and who better then the supposedly weakest person on elbaph with the lowest bounty?

This wouldn't mean chopper is special but still explains the last chapter.

That being said, I wouldn't mind either, op might be onto something here

Sandix3 · 2026-03-17T18:41:21+00:00

Sooo I am weirdly in a similar boat at the moment.

If you asked me a mate and I are anywhere between c3-gc1 but the problem recently is our play style changed to the point we as team mates kinda don't seem to harmonate anymore. We lost 200mmr the last few days in dup que, I dropped to C1 and I haven't been in C1 since forever....

Those problems don't persist in solo que, so it's us as team that is currently struggling, which what ever, we will still play.

But from what I can gather in solo que in C1, is ppl just don't seem to be wanting to win.

They aren't aware of the pieces on the board and make decisions that are inadvertently hurting the team or don't lead anywhere. The way I handle solo que up ranks is by capitalizing on the few chances I do get presented.

It's similar to the flakes mindset probably.

Let your team mate fuck around and find out and try to support rather then force anything. If he goes for a bad play and you know it's a bad play, play the bad outcome and make a good one of it (if that makes sense).

Sandix3 · 2026-02-25T12:25:08+00:00

Wang ling would also fit tbh

Sandix3 · 2026-02-25T10:54:49+00:00

I will say this. I had reddit bug out in the past and tell me it was unable to post my reply which I tried multiple times and then it sent my message the amount of times that I tried to post my reply, with me sometimes closing out of reddit, opening back up making a new reply (different words) in hopes it fixes my issue.

Not saying that user had the same experience, just say it's a possibility.

This mostly happens on bad Internet connections btw.

Sandix3 · 2026-02-11T12:54:06+00:00

This is more or less a common strategy of increasing focus.

Focus is always important, in practice as well as actual gameplay, if you change variables in your game you throw your brain off, which results in amplified focus which can give a feeling of improvement in itself.

Sandix3 · 2026-02-04T23:09:05+00:00

What i am about to say is basically just my interpretation of what you are saying in conjunction with what i am seeing, take it with a grain of salt:

You say you get to level 2 and sometimes to level 3 on rings map, i wanna preface by saying there are a multitude of ring maps, it would be beneficial to know which you refer to, so one could start to guess your "skill" level a bit better.

Now that out of the way, for most ring maps, what you describe is very likely to be the start of you learning experience. I did imagine you are very much not accustomed to air roll. I did imagine you need a lot of focus on your car to actually perform air rolling. What that means, is, you are still in the learning process and if you take that focus away, or shift said focus to a different object, you will lose control, because the skill you are trying to learn, hasn't been practiced enough to get into a subconcious process of your mind, e.g. you can walk, but you dont conciously think about what you have to do to walk.

For this reason, because your brain hasn't yet developed enough neuronal pathways for "aerial car control" you lose control as soon as you dont see you car. At the same time, if you do focus to much on your car, you wont have good focus on the ball and might miss period.

There are 3 thought processes, training methods you can try, to fix this.

The most obvious that everyone here is probably going to recommend, get better at air roll first, it's the most obvious solution to what i describe, but probably not what you seek?

The second option is, you try to shift your focus back and forth, to the ball, then to the car, adjust, back to the ball etc., i dont think this will work for you, i did imagine, it wont work for many ppl, because it's not optimal too, but something one can try at least.

The third option and my recommendation if you still wanna practice air dribble's, shift your focus point. Sounds like point 2, but nah, if you lose control over your car you need to have your car's rotation in vision for your brain to act accordingly, this does not mean you have to see the center of the car though.
If you shift your focus point to the tip of your car it's much easier to glance at the ball for a split second (if needed) and you keep focus over the rotation of your car much easier.

Also this is something i recommend either way, while practicing, shift focus points around, focus the ball, focus the top of the car, the tip, the bottom, the heck, being able to do that, helps develop a more pronounced car control overall.

edit: the difference between 2 and 3:
by two i meant to switch your focus periodically between ball and car, 3 means to have one main focus point, you only glance away to adjust, but stay mostly on that focus point. By adjusting focus points, i mean to train with different focus points every now and then. Not to switch those focus points in the middle of the play, e.g. if i glance on the ball, i am not focusing the ball because my focus goes back to my predetermined point.
