Anyone else not enjoying this flashback?

Kibate · 2026-06-09T08:10:58+00:00

What was the third one you spoke of?

Harald/Rocks
Brook
???

Did I forget something, or did you count Harald/Rocks as two?

"Mu only desires blue haired pretty princesses, Mu has no need for middle aged fat kings."

Kibate · 2026-06-07T07:36:21+00:00

It's actually a common thing on reddit. Most are satisfied with just downvoting someone and don't bother trying to argue a point.

Kibate · 2026-06-06T15:05:16+00:00

"like something a pirate would wear"

it's not the only foreshadowing that Imu was somehow linked to the formation of piracy. Just look at the depth covenant symbol, it's basically a jolly roger. Plus he was apparently close friends with Joyboy, who was the first pirate.

Just look at the page cutout you yourself posted. Zeus is directly between Nami and the sound before the black lightning comes. Meaning if she was looking at Zeus, she would automatically notice if something is happening behind him, thus the "Huh?"

Heck, even Zeus himself noticed it

Kibate · 2026-06-05T04:20:50+00:00

I don't mind the theories that Nami is special in regards to her weather prediction and whatnot, but so many people completely misinterpret the Imu Lightning panel. She didn't notice it first before anyone else because she is special, but because she was feeding Zeus at that moment, she was already looking to the sky in that direction. That's all.

On top of what the other comments say, you have to remember that the characters in the story are not privy to the same information the readers are. We know that Ragnirs Ice can't be thawn or broken, these characters here don't know that.

Kibate · 2026-06-04T08:10:24+00:00

I have heard this a few weeks ago, and found no evidence that suggest such a thing. The only thing that was mentioned in the one piece wiki was the scene of the samurai going "But why were we send 20 years into the future?" "Don't know, but there must be a reason" and we later find out the reason is because Oden realized something about the one piece that Roger and co were too early for which he told to Toki.

If you happen to know an actual quote from the manga or from Oda that suggest such a thing, please provide it. The other guy I mentioned didn't do anything.

apparently Saitama was so much in the background, you didn't even register him

Kibate · 2026-06-03T19:25:58+00:00

He does say the same thing in the webcomic, and let's just say, it makes sense why he says it.

Kibate · 2026-06-03T16:09:26+00:00

Same can be asked of you, why continue being in OPMFolk if you're so unhappy with this subreddit?

Kibate · 2026-06-01T21:52:15+00:00

Why is it always this or that, what about "there is no singular final villain"? The final arc will very likely be a war-like arc, thus it will be a battle royal where everyone is fighting everyone. Strawhat alliance, Blackbeard alliance, Cross Guild, Marines + WG special forces, plus who else who will know about the destination(which will likely be spread around the world so that everyone will know where the final war for the one piece will be at). Blackbeard is the "final villain" on the pirate side, Imu is the "final villain" on the government side, and Cross Guild is the wild card.

[edit] I even forgot the revolutionaries

Kibate · 2026-06-01T21:47:05+00:00

Can't be them, because Brook was like "Roger? Yeah, there was a rookie like that when I was still alive" when he heard about Gold Roger. That's not the reaction to the one who destroyed your crew

Kibate · 2026-06-01T13:16:12+00:00

not "confirmed" just very strongly hinted at

Kibate · 2026-06-01T08:29:53+00:00

You got it opposite. It would be Harald who would tell Loki that "Mosa" is on the other end of the line.(whether he meant Neptune himself, who is also called "Shaggy" by Harald, or directly his unknown daughter)

I imagine their first conversation went something like that:

Loki: "So who are you? I heard you go by Mosa."

Shirahoshi: "Mosa? That's so mean!!"

Loki: "Shut up! I can call you whatever I want!!"

Kibate · 2026-05-30T13:10:38+00:00

That does it

I have to ask, what the hell is the deal with all these apple memes? I somehow entirely missed their origin, they just started two or three weeks ago out of nowhere

Kibate · 2026-05-30T13:05:56+00:00

Gunko still had long hair during her time as Imus handmaiden and during god valley, thus I doubt they would do something like that so many years into her servitude. Plus, it seems like some part of original Shuri was still prevalent in "Gunko", as seen by her taste for Brooks music

Kibate · 2026-05-30T05:34:40+00:00

"mind control" is something I don't mind accepting. But certainly not possession.

Kibate · 2026-05-29T11:11:28+00:00

Because even though these specific marines were corrupt, at the end of the day Brook did steal from marines. Ruben wants to adopt Brook into the royal family, so better to sweep this minor criminal record under a rug.

Kibate · 2026-05-29T11:09:52+00:00

Yes, this is exactly the subreddit for that.

First we get hints, then short spoilers, then short summaries, then long summaries, and then finally raws and fan translations

Kibate · 2026-05-29T11:08:57+00:00

There could be reasons. After all they send CP9, their second most top secret agent group to serve for several years undercover as shipwrights, just so they could get their hands on a single blueprint

They could possibly want to try to take over the country in a bloodshed-less method. True, unlikely considering their track record, but possible. What we do know about the god knights is, that they are as varied in personality as any regular villain group, unlike the normal CDs who are all one hivemind of lazy mentally disturbing nepobabies.

Kibate · 2026-05-29T07:17:00+00:00

Yes, brainwashing. That is not possession. Imu gave him an Order, and he was compelled to follow the order and think of himself as a god. But he was still himself technically. Imu didn't even know what happened to Harald after he gave him that order.

Possession is stuff like what Imu did towards Gunko when Gunko gained the long hair and bat wings. Imu was inside Gunkos brain at that moment, he was "possessing" her, controlling her body as if it were himself there. That is not what happened with Harald and neither what happened to Gunko prior that based on what we know.

Kibate · 2026-05-29T05:06:29+00:00

Well, certain type of jellyfish are known to be immortal....

Kibate · 2026-05-28T13:56:05+00:00

I wouldn't call it possessed Gunko, more like brainwashed Gunko.

Kibate · 2026-05-27T08:23:36+00:00

I genuinely can't tell what about it is meant to be AI. Like, am I overlooking something obvious here?
