    People forget that One Piece is goofy and light hearted BECAUSE we're seeing the world through Luffy's perspective. When it's not his perspective, it's always more dark and gritty, because Luffy is special in his mentality and view of the world, which is why he's so charismatic

    I love how Tama's ability managed to affect the gifters. She kept up the "Kurozumi are traitors" tradition. Like how Orochi's grandfather poisoned the other daimyos so that he could become shogun and how Orochi betrayed Yasui and Oden's trust for him to usurp the throne. Instead, Tama's form of "betrayal" is getting the bad guy's side to defect, capable fighters none the less.

      I'll be honest, I don't like that someone "conveniently" has that power just when the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance decided to free Wano. We can say that it's fate and all that, but without her, the Beast Pirates would've known early that the prisoners have taken over the prison. If the Beast Pirates attacked that early, that might've been enough for the Alliance to lose, who knows. 🤔

    Totoland has another strong theme that goes in opposition to Luffys value of freedom. Consent. Totoland in theory is pretty magical with all the deserts, diversity, and protection, but people aren't there by choice. They were either born under tyranical matriarchal rule, or kidnapped to join Linlin's morbid collection, nobody freely consents to join totoland and even the "leave or life" ultimatum is a false choice because it's an open secret that nobody leaves alive

    I love that you brought up Arlong. I've been hoping a lot lately, that Oda will have Arlong appear in the story again, and that we will see his take on the fact that he nearly stopped and tried to kill the actual Joyboy. And how he feels about it in the context of his mentor Fisher Tiger, and even more interestingly to me, that his nemesis and former fellow crew-member, Jimbe, has joined w this Joyboy and is fulfilling the world-saving mission! Like Arlong: chose to fight Luffy and lost and is either in Impel Down or somewhere else, decidedly not* living his best life. Whereas Jimbe, rose above the hate, kept being himself(which is a pretty awesome self imo) and is changing the world as the best Helmsman ever on a Yonko's crew.. I'm dying for even just one panel w Arlong having some type of recognition or reflection over this.. Just one panel w a line or 2 even would be awesome to me.. After watching part about Doffy it made me think about some interesting parallels and some key differences between Jimbe and Arlong, and Law and Doffy. Both pairs have had some similar experiences and trauma, but the way Jimbe and Law turned out is worlds away from how Arlong and Doffy ended up. Tho to be fair Rosinante played a big role in that process for Law too, Law may have been like Doffy w out Rosinante.. This is just such a rich story I love it.. Awesome vid I really enjoyed this perspective and analysis of "failed Joyboys" 🔥💯 Gr8 stuff

    The reason Jinbei hasn't joined the fight is because Kizaru was the one that saved him and the Sun Pirates from the wrath of the World Nobles that desired to execute them because they belied the Sun Pirates had kidnapped Koala and since there were no evidence to prove otherwise there was no way to convince them. So Kizaru blamed the Marines , thus himself and his unit for incompetence and irresponsibility to detect and capture the actual slave traders.Furthermore if you recall back in Marineford , Kizaru is one of the only people Jinbei never exchanged fists with and even if it would have been child's play for Kizaru to blast him with Yasakani no Magatama , he also didn't consider crossing him.Probably they respect each other a lot.
    Kizaru has also been really sus and mysterious in this arc.I am not talking about his battle with Luffy.I am talking about his actions.When he was still talking with Saturn in Saturn's transport ship some chapters back he was shown to agree with him but once Saturn decided to make claims that would create conflict between Kizaru and his friends , Kizaru immediately interrupted him and proceeded to disagree with him.What's more during the fight he managed to get really close to the Vegatank 08 while Luffy was trying to reach him.That was when the Vegatank 08 was crossing the cloud road.Kizaru got really close to them within shot distance and he still missed hitting bull's eye.After that in his second attempt is when Luffy caught up to him and countered the lazer beam.Those are in chapter 1094.Probably Kizaru intentionally missed at the first shot as he couldn't bring himself to murdering his friend Vegapunk.Sentomaru is also alive despite Saturn ordered Kizaru to not show mercy to anyone that'd dare stand in his way.
    Just saying.

    • @waterysummer4252
      @waterysummer4252 Před 8 měsíci +17

      If anything, it is related to folklore in Japanese called Momotaro. The story of Momotaro can be summarized (and oversimplified) this way: Momo feed three animals (dog, monkey, and pheasant) with his dango and it tamed them like almost instantly and they goes wherever Momo goes. I think it's only a reference but I agree that as a foreigner that not knowing too much about the reference, Otama's power is truly terrifiying but since I happened to know a bit of the story, I don't find it too disturbing when I was thinking, "Oh it's just a reference and nothing too deep to think of"

I remember in chapter 1089 that everyone, including the Cipher Pol hostages are having their nice warm meals, while York is chained to the ground while facing the consequences. Nobody cares about York's hunger while crying and begging to be saved. It's funny because York wants to be a Celestial Dragon so badly that she got her wish. Being chained to the ground, watching everyone have warm meals, and experience hunger.

Hell sasaki was mowing down pirates who had come to support him battling Franky meanwhile Franky was trying to keep them safe.

It's the same smile as Doflamingo's, only not crossed out. Instead it's got lines around the circumference that make it look like stylized a virus. Maybe it's just old news now.
    Law is so salty and opposed to Doflamigo that he now wants to spread "joy" like a virus to spite him. Which I think is neat, because he hardly knows joy himself, its like a foreign concept to him. He has a really fascinating role, struggling in this smile war, too.

Just like many islands in the New World, it'll be constantly attacked by enemies, Marines, Government officials, and even those who suffered. In other words, Totto Land and Big Mom Pirates are gonna experience what its like suffering and watching their homes crumble to pieces.
    Even if Orochi's dead for good, it'll take a long time for Wano to recover, especially those who suffered over 20 years. Maybe one day, they'll find a cure for SMILEs. My favorite scene is where Kaido sliced Orochi's head, shows he doesn't give shit about his goals and was used as mere pawn. As for Hawkins, it's nice to see him get a taste of his own medicine. After the terrible things Hawkins has done, he got what he deserves. For York, I hope her head is obliterated into pieces.

    I think we can add one more layer on it. Everything is about laughing, the biggest of all smiles. Every important figure has an individual laugh, while our protagonist monkey D. Laughy is searching the island of laughtale while being joyboy, who Laughs, when he is in his prime gear 5.
    Those who ate the smile fruit weren't just smiling. They were laughing.
    So, joyboy will not only bring a smile on the face but will put a genuine laugh into the heart of everyone.

    I don't know if this has been put out there but what if the will of D has something to do with the fact that if you turn the D on its side it looks like a smile. Just a thought.

    Warlord of the Sea and king of Dressrosa. His real name is Don Quixote Doflamingo AKA The Heavenly Demon, or "Joker" in the underworld. He produces artificial Devil Fruits called "SMILEs." He wields the power of the String-String Fruit and strings he uses can manipulate humans, slice through any object, and even loop around clouds to lift him

    I just realized something. Everyone can live to be Dr. Kureha's age or maybe even the giants age, but there are so many things in this world that are hacking away at everyone's lifespans such as constant starvation, magical soul contracts, and just stress in general that all humans in the One Piece world are working themselves into an early grave.

  • @magicpyroninja
    @magicpyroninja Před 8 měsíci +4

    That are definitely a couple things in one piece that seem way too dark and that's probably why they don't fully flesh out the descriptions of these events because it would change the rating of one piece to mature probably

  • @pabloulloa5963
    @pabloulloa5963 Před 8 měsíci +1

    There's a theory that the "D" initial also can be represented by the moon kanji in names of Wano like kozuki or shimotsuki; it would make so much sense then that both Oden and Yasuie died with smiles on their faces, since they're "D" from Wano

    The basic premise at the beginning of this video is reminiscent of C.S. Lewis’s conversion story. He didn’t believe because we live in an evil world, but he realized: how could he know about evil, and absolute evil, unless there is also an absolute good? And there is absolute good, how is it defined? And he settled on G-d.
    Basically akin to how we can know what happiness is without sadness.

    There was a recent horror movie about smiling and murder, Smile 2022. It kinda also includes the cognitive dissonance of smiling when least appropriate and without genuine happy feelings, if I read into it correctly.

  • @Lothiril
    @Lothiril Před 8 měsíci +2

    One Piece has a lot of heavy topics and settings. It starts nice in comparison in the very first arc with Coby, a weak little boy, spending two years of his life as a prisoner/slave among pirates, and dreaming of becoming a marine to help people because he would have needed that help himself. And then the first marines he meets are Morgan and Helmeppo... 🙃
    At the time of the beginning of Egghead Island arc, we have seen many worse scenarios.
    What do you think is the worst we have seen in One Piece on a general level, and what is the worst individual situation in your opinion?

  • @nekomiaou
    @nekomiaou Před 8 měsíci +1

    One kind of subverted smile you didn't mention is the smile frozen on Koala face when she was released from tenryubito's slavery. We see the same faked smile on Kuma and his father on the last chapter.
    And in the Kaido's Flashback, we saw that both Kaido and Big Mum where smiling when they were convinced they'll be the next pirate king (or queen). I don't know for Whitebeard, but being king of the pirate was never is goal.
    You are rigth tho, smile and the subversion of it is obviously very important in One Piece.

    I am rewatching one peice right now and I am on episode 48 where the straw hats arrive on logue town. Smoker is addressing a band of pirates and their leader has a crescent beard and hat that makes a moon. Given what is happing with figarland right now, I find it interesting that oda would add someone with the same haircut as figarland so early in the series.it’s cool that he was introduced in logue town, where roger was born and executed along with the name of the episode with is “the town of the begging and the end, landfall at logue town”. It’s probably all a coincidence but it’s cool.

  • @Topbeehler

    I think I gotta say this but I really love/hate your channel in the best way possible. For starters I hate your reviews of chapters you do just because your videos are so masterfully done and compelling that sometimes I can't help but watch them sometimes before I even read the new chapters and yes, I'm blaming you for that. Why are your videos so well done?! Must be all that time in Theater.
    But I love your videos even more especially ones like these during the breaks so I can really see things from a new perspective and look at things in ways I didn't think before and it really is a cool thing. Because of you I have my own One Piece theories I've never heard anyone else say before and it's really fun to try to put the pieces together in ways that I think will work and not to brag but I think I have some good ones lol, or not IDK.
    Anyway, just wanted to say that. Epic videos, I love them
