After months of silently cackling to myself every time Boom had a theory about Luffy and the sun… IIIIIIIIIIIT’S. TIIIIIIIIIIIIME
I feel you bro
The fact that you noticed the sun correlation well B4 the Manga even dropped Gear 5 is crazy. I gotta give you big props for that I would've never guessed that it'd turn into such a big factor as Luffy being the Sun God
foreal, I was listening to managabros a few weeks after gear 5 dropped like "no fckin way"
He now needs to react to all one piece movies coz all of them are good and some of them are connected to the story and have some secrets of the story.
no fuck the movies and fuck film red and fuck alladem i believe@@rox4653
Yeah, the only person I ever saw call it sooner than that is a teacher (literature I think) who's reading the manga and discussing her thoughts on it with her son on stream, and she called Luffy being a Sun God a long while back. Like pre-rime skip, possibly pre-Skypeia even.
@@MoostachedSaiyanPrincethen you haven’t heard of the Goat Mr. Morj. Recommended video: “the dawn of the world” made 5 years ago well before the sun god was revealed.
I love how Gear 5 is so ridiculous that it makes Luffy really broken but at the same time it shows how crazy Kaido is because not many characters would’ve been able to roll with the punches with how weird this fight got on the fly. Luffy’s fighting style completely changed & his strength got a buff and Kaido was still going toe to toe with him. Gotta respect these legends.
I think my favorite bit of foreshadowing for this, which I did not get until after the reveal, is when Blackbeard is fighting Ace and he says: "Who will win, the sun or the darkness?" Love that.
Rewatch the Ace vs Blackbeard fight. Ace was literally gonna throw a “sun” at Blackbeard. There is no Sungod foreshadowing there.
@@uluvgxbe7655 Hey... Did you know... That in a story... Something can mean something obvious... And also be foreshadowing something else? In fact, that's kind of the point?
@@BrienneofDarth Well obviously it's "foreshadowing" that Luffy loses then.
Sometimes a blue door is just blue.
Oda drew inspiration from the cartoon “Tom and Jerry.” Oda himself wanted to draw something funny and also wanted Luffy's fights to regain some funny elements, even though he was aware the general audience of One Piece would not like this concept because the general action sequences of contemporary Shonen manga are taken too seriously, causing the genre's uniqueness in the past to be lost over time. With the introduction of Gear 5, Oda wanted to create a polarity between Luffy's cartoonish humor and Kaidou's deadly seriousness.
Gear 5 reminds me of the old One Piece fights which I love. After Enies Lobby all of Luffys fights essentially became "big punch", but this just feels so good.
I prefer to think of the more serious nature of Luffy's fights in the later series as a deliberate character arc for Luffy.
Think about it, even during Marineford, we still got a lot of funny moments during most of Luffy's fights. But when Ace died, suddenly we get Gear 4 and Luffy's much more serious during battles, which didn't feel quite true to who he was before.
In fact, I like to think of Gear 4 as a false awakening for Luffy's fruit, like Chopper's Monster Point, or those beasts in Impel Down. It's like he was still fighting through the grief of losing Ace and wasn't in tune with the Nika Fruit, which is a major contributor for why we got Gear 4 instead of Gear 5 IMO.
After all, if Zoan Devil Fruits have wills of their own, it makes some degree of sense that you can't draw out their full power if you aren't fully in tune with their will. Luffy's near death experience might have given him a clearer perspective and let go of that grief, since a lot of people feel at peace when they're that close to death. And letting go of that grief could have been what finally allowed his will and Nika's to truly become one, and unleash the full power of the fruit.
And that's Luffy's arc of grief IMO. He was holding onto it and allowing it to turn him into someone he wasn't (albeit not a severe shift), but by getting back in touch with the man he was before he lost Ace, he was able to sync up with his DF and finally draw out it's full power now that his body is strong enough to endure drawing out Nika's power.
I feel like the goofiness nature of Gear 5 makes it unpredictable and more entertaining and fun in that way
@@MoostachedSaiyanPrince this is such a nice explanation bro
The reaction did NOT disappoint! I knew you'd love the direction Gear 5 went for. I remember when this came out in the manga there was a complete divide between those who loved and revered it and those who absolutely despised it saying its goofiness doesn't have a place in One Piece. Fast forward to a year and a half later when 1071 came out and predictably the same happened.
Luffy's free spiritness is on full display and in fact empowers him. There's even a theory that since Luffy himself doesn't know yet that his fruit is Nika, he's still utilizing it under the impression that he only awakened his Paramecia the Gum-Gum and that his actual powers will come in full swing once he realizes he's not limited to applying rubbery properties. Personally I don't think his powers would change that much because the reason he had rubbery properties is because Nika's body is rubbery and his actual powers is basically it but could be applied to other things like Doffy's awakening.
Oda with the thousand episode/chapter lie. He can't keep getting away with this lmao
EDIT: I also wanna add that Luffy is the only shonen MC I know that has his own OST (Drums of Liberation) playing on bluetooth speakers that Zunesha is exclusively using. My man's Conqueror's Haki was also so out of control during his "revival" that not only he parted the sky by himself in the anime, hordes of enemies were also passing out downstairs once he started jumping around in pure joy.
@@jamesadvincola9687 that minority is also probably only the people who have consumed One Piece as side content while doing over stuff since they must of missed the same goofyness starting at least as early as skypiea
@@jamesadvincola9687 There are plenty of people who didn't like Gear 5 and the devil fruit reveal, though of course "too much goofiness" is a straw man argument with an anime/manga like One Piece. The real reason for the dislike is that Luffy has always been a protagonist who made the most of a ridiculously weak devil fruit due to sheer willpower and perseverance, and with a lot of creativity. But then it turns out: Nope, it's the power of a literal GOD, he has been The Chosen One all along, whether he wants it or not, like every other effing shounen protagonist ever. THAT was the disappointing part for most of the critics, including myself.
@@spookyvampiresquid4680 the entirety of one piece showed how pretty weak the power was. the devil fruit was weak on its own, but it was luffy's creativity and determination that made it work. otherwise, another nika/joyboy would've appeared during the 800 year gap.
@@spookyvampiresquid4680the counterargument for that is that only Luffy would have awakened the fruit, not because of blood or a prophecy, but because he's just as free as the fruit itself.
@@spookyvampiresquid4680Nah the fruit is only Sun God. Luffy has always been Joyboy, nothing to do with his devil fruit. His spirit, freedom, compassion to makes everyone smile, cmon you don’t see how OP that is without all explanation? I love Luffy for his great posivity & compassion, which I think are the best quality of a human, so maybe I have a bias in thinking him being the chosen one from the start 😂
A detail I love about gear 5 is luffy’s fighting style and attacks, in pre time skip luffy had a lot more variety of names attacks that were mostly never used again, and was fighting a bit more creatively than post time skip, where it seems things got serious, the attacks were punches or kicks with better or worse haki, but with gear 5 he goes back to that fun nature of pre time skip, stuff like gum gum jump rope remind me a lot of luffy’s early fighting style
I agree with you, post timeskip he uses less grapple attacks like hammer...but with Gear 5, he don't care because he can easily tank quite a bit of damage
Idk man ufo was post time akip
I don't think people talk enough about Sanji being the first one to sense Luffy. It really shows the strength of their bond. Dude woke up from unconsciousness when he felt that shit.
Nah it's Sanji's observation haki, Oda's cooking sum since Whole Cake
I think Zoro would also be woken up if he wasnt 90% dead. :D
lmfaooo its because the monster trio all specialize in a type of haki, luffys is conquerors, zoro is armament, and sanji is observation
yeah Sanji has good observation haki
To everyone saying its his observation haki: Yes but lets not underestimate the bond between the wings of the pirateking and its bearer
So all of this time, Luffy was a Mythical Zoan fruit user this whole time. Oda has been bamboozling us for over twenty years
Even going so far as to have luffy say he’s not a zoan type when meeting momo
its just retcon but really wel made
@@lderintp9380 maybe, maybe not. I think most of the Concept had to be done by the time Skypeia was over but who knows
And it makes a lot of sense. For example, Luffy's crazy recovery speed. He in Alabasta just ate meat and has a 1-2 minutes nap and was back up again to kick Crocodile's butt.
@@eduardomunoz4387 zoro has that to just sleep for a while and drink so still retcon for me
I have been keeping up with the manga for the past 7 years. When I first heard Boom say something about Luffy being related to the Sun, Gear 5 wasnt a thing yet, so I just thought of it as a random theory. Gear 5 debut was less than a month later. It blew my mind how you were right. Now it is finally upon us, lets goooo
And to think all these years Oda was keeping this secret about Luffy's devil fruit powers....a FREAKING MYTHICAL ZOAN 😁😁😁😁😁
23:13 - 23:21 Joyboy is said to make people smile. Seeing his reaction to this fight after knowing it got criticized for being “to goofy” makes me smile! You’re supposed to laugh and smile at this that’s the point of Joyboy/Luffy.
He is Nika the “Sun god” that makes you smile.
Luffy went from stretchy rubber to reality warping demigod. I would love to see him fight Akainu now. Him trying to keep a serious face while Luffy is laughing and jumping around like a ball.
Luffy v akainu NEEDS to happen. Maybe I'll heal
from a boy in a barrel to the sun god. been a hell of a journey
& hopefully the king of the pirates 😭
@@riddlerosehearts8277 Not just hopefully; definitely. :)
One piece DAAAY! Boom you called the connection ages ago! And ive been hyped for you to see this ever since
SInce you mentioned the sun back when Luffy picks his hat back up I've noticed the reference as far back as syrup town in the anime and I'm more than excited to see you finally get here! Now it's just a matter of catching up with the manga so we can start brainstorming some theories lol
i loved that u mentioned Merry as a toneshift and yes its the same with ruffy i could agree even if i never thought of it as such XD. from here on lets just enjoy
Ridiculously cool, ridiculously funny, ridiculously OP
He literally made everyone smile. Especially after we saw Luffy's "Death" this was exactly what we needed but never knew before
One Piece again did it. Oda again did it. And your reaction is proof that it worked they way it was intended to.
Joyboy has returned.
But I cant help myself asking how the live action series will ever be able to adapt things like this. This feels kinda impossible and I don't envy the producers of the show whenever they would reach this point in 20 seasons or so :D
A lot of what happened in skypeia does connect but oda could have chosen to have the new sun god stuff purposely connect to that even if he thought of it in the future so it's not certain whether he thought of everything like the fruit being a zoan back then or changed it later. I think the first definite confirmation is in dressrosa when gear 4 first debuted. During that time is when it actually doesn't seem like just a gum gum fruit. Gear 2 and 3 make sense within the paramecia limits, but gear 4 is an actual transformation like zoans and furthermore doflamingo stated that rubber shouldn't work like that which was the first real sign that he wasn't just a rubber human. Whether he thought of it in skypeia or not, I do love the connections. I don't know the exact thing, but I saw someone say that something used for the drums of liberation was the same thing used in the drums back in skypeia, plus the pose and the mentioning of sun god back then.
gear 4 is absolutly within paramecia limits for me, it's the pinnacle of his rubberpower/controll combined with very tight but exhausting Haki controll to forcefully create that form. just mho though. would still want to have a talk with Oda about it
You have literally called this since as early as amazin Lilly if i remember. Im so glad you get to feel this validation of being completely correct.
The most ridiculous power in the world! Dancing to the drums of liberation.
he was right on the money on that refrence. Evn recalled a Skypia scene most of us did not even pay attention. I take of the hat for that.
26:13 this pose was one of the first figures they made, and I got lucky enough to find in a local store. The funny thing is at the time the official colors hadn’t been revealed, so he came with a head of fiery hair because it was the “Sun God” fruit. One of my favorite figures too this day. Just captured the joy of Gear 5 so well.
I love that Kaido thanked Luffy for being alive! BTW. don't forget that Kaido fought Akazaya Nine, Worst Generation, Yamato AND Luffy, all without rest. While Luffy even had the time to completely rest and eat after he was beatein in 1033. It still stands true, if it's one on one, bet on Kaido. Luffy can't beat him alone. BTW. we didn't get an OP ending in like 17 years, so getting an ending again after so long was really special!
Kaido don’t get tired so all those fights impact him none but he should just beat Luffy up and not killed him which caused his heart to stopped which was then jumpstart by the devil fruit and awaken him.
tama really is like a little sister to luffy, just like how ace and sabo are his big brothers. luffy seems so loyal to tama.
Gear 5! Also you're right, the ending slaps so hard.
Lol yeah it's been wild hearing your "crack pot theories" at the time and sitting over here being caught up sipping tea looking around like "Does he know he spot on...?" lol
I know what you mean in " *THE SHIFT* " Because i was thinking the same thing but didnt know how to put it into words beforehand... So the shift now seems like its heading towards luffy and his team "winning" more often or stkeast more easier often. And theyre liberating plwces faster then ever. The shift is going towards freedom and fun!!! But yeah i just subscribed! Love your reactions!!!
I've been watching reaction to g5 since it came out and just came across you, in everyone i've seen, your reaction are so honest and jumpy, just like me. I get all excited all the time it happen and seing you having the same as me is giving me a big ole smile. I''ll do a marathon of your reaction, well deserved.
much love. so happy youve come so far in not only viewers/subscribers, but also your commentating. also, your UNC hat means you're meant to be my fave reactor. lets go! keep up the great content and go heels.
With the reveal of Luffy's Paramecia Fruit Gum-Gum Gomu Gomu no Mi's real identity as Human-type Zoan Hito Hito no Mi; Mythical Model: Nika, the series creators decided to make it easier for fans that from Luffy's regular techniques to Gear 4th will officially still be called out as Paramecia Gomu Gomu no Mi; but when Luffy activates his Fruit Awakening to Gear 5th Nika, it's classified as Mythical Zoan (changing history of Gomu Gomu up to now would be way too difficult). And I guess now we know that when it comes to Devil Fruit Zoan Mythicals, the abilities of the users act somewhat like a mixed Dual-Fruit Type Power-user. Like for example with Marco & Yamato, their Zoan Mythicals make them a dual-mix of Zoan-transformer & Logia elemental; like with Marco's Fire Phoenix and Yamato's Ice Wolf-God. And I guess for Luffy's Zoan Mythical it makes him a dual-mix Zoan-transformer & Paramecia-superhuman of rubber
Now that we know Luffy’s a zoan type I wonder what’ll happen if he uses a rumble ball
Can't wait for 1074!!!
Oh I'm 95% sure G5 is the last one. The only way it's not is if JoyBoy had a shortcoming in using the Nika fruit that Luffy needs to overcome but even that is unlikely to be resolved by another gear. At most Luffy will learn to use G5 better. The fact that Oda has him saying "it's my peak", yeah I agree, that indicates that he intends for this to be the last gear.
Probably his only limitation at this point is that he still believes he has a paramecia df
I was crying while laughing watching these episodes, that everyone thought i was gonna die from it!
Yoooo peak !!!!! Ive been following your journey since ep 300 when i found your channel and im so excited you reach that point !! 😊
Oda is such a madman that he hinted at the Gum Gum fruit being the Nika one in a cover story. Franky was wearing a shirt that said Hito Hito on it with a picture of a sun. So that was a clue for it being the Hito Hito no Mi: Model Nika. It really is insane
The G5 transformation was they most hype transformation since Super Saiyan Goku... I am here for Boom losing his mind!
i learned you had your "sun" theories from the manga bros podcast.
you first mentioned it on there after nika had been revealed, and i just had to hold my tongue, we all did!
this is why ruff has been bullying you into catching up.
Peak Sun God theory turned out correct. Crazy you figured the connections before gear 5 came out.
I feel you Boom, when Gear 5 dropped it was a paradigm shift. Nothing can be the same. The scaling has never been higher and Luffy is at the center of it all
"I hate One Piece bro I'm not ever watching this shit again"
...idk if I believe you on that one...
Loved the whole reaction. Been here since day 1 keep it up 🖤
I really like every how you reacted to gear 5 in all aspects, the best reaction i've seen so far ❤
It was so, so early when you started pointing out sun connections with Luffy. This must be so cathartic for you
I was way more surprised by that it wasn't actually Paramecia type, but Zoan, than it was called Nika xD
It’s amazing that he can binge these episodes, straight fireeeeee
And the 5 Elders weren't kidding about it being the most "ridiculous" power
After seeing which episode your last upload ended on, I was wondering when you would upload next. Glad to see it was today. Watched it immediately.
Like some anime Shounen protagonists. Luffy has some resemblance to Sun Wukong. But the latter's character is based of the Hindu monkey god Hanuman. According to the myth, he was a demi-god who flew towards the sun as a child. Thinking it was a fruit.
Plus, Natural rubber is made by extracting latex - the liquid sap - from certain types of trees and other plants. While most latex is sourced from the Hevea brasiliensis tree, aka the rubber tree, over 2,500 varieties of trees and plants (including dandelions) produce the right kind of sap.
i love gear 5th!~ it was added as playable in one of the games and ive been loving running around with it ^.^
I love gear 5 is so cool it affects people IRL like it's supposed to just makes you smile and know it's safe with joy boy around.
Just found this channel through a mashup reaction for choppers monster point good shit dude!
I never realized you were a UNC fan! love the reactions been keeping up for a while now
when Luffy bounces back the Boro Breath he without talking said
"I'm rubber you're dragon whatever boro breathe you breath bounces back and sends you packin"
(it's a slant rhyme not a direct rhyme but it still works)
Ruff wasn't joking when he said y'all literally couldn't keep doing Manga Bros without you getting spoiled, you had that shit figured out from the get-go
Man, you've been on the sun track for so long I'm glad you're finally here. I remember on the MangaBros episode you spoke about it and Merphy was trying so hard to keep a poker face lmao
1071: I think my favorite moment is when Luffy sends that blast breath back at Kaido and we see Kaido being charred black and then he exhales black smoke, like from old cartoons. Makes me laugh every time. And Luffy clapping his feet. I was hoping for the William Hanna Tom-scream though. Maybe next episode when Kaido starts doing some damage back.
1072: This was a fantastic episode! It was even better than the previous one. It’s because we got to see Gear 5 in full force. And once again it was because this added motion, sound, and color to what we already saw in the manga. GUM-GUM GIGANT was perfect!!!! Seeing Luffy with just the eyes on the black screen. Luffy jumping out of Kaido’s mouth makes so much more sense than him coming out of Kaido’s eyes. I loved the Woody Woodpecker-like laugh Luffy did when he also did the tire-like spinning with his legs right after the blast breath. I always got the sense that Luffy was actually jumping up and down when using Gum-Gum Jump Rope. I loved that when he got tired, he didn’t just deflate but turned gray and desaturated. And that when he powered back up again, he “chose the correct beat!” And the gorgeous colors!!! And then "Over the Top" starts to play! Everyone’s reaction to Luffy coming through the roof was hilarious. I almost wanted to see Marco’s eyes pop out too. I’m glad they kept in Yamato’s line about Luffy being white even though that was clearly meant to tell manga readers what Luffy’s coloring is. But they tweaked the line so it sounds less like she’s telling us and more like she’s wondering it to herself or Momo. And it’s always fun to see Luffy try to think. And I liked that they added in the first 2 pages of 1046 with Zunesha celebrating Joyboy returning but also affirming that this is still Luffy and not him being possessed by Joyboy like what happens in a bunch of other Shounen manga.
I hope we get your reaction to the new opening, too. He doesn't actually spoil anything and it's gorgeous! And the song is so fucking hype, too!
He didn't make kaido's teeth clicks now, he make it BOUNCY.
i was so looking foward to this reaction, welcome to the party boom!
OP is indeed the best story ever told so far
BIG PROPS for your early call on the sun theme! I recall the first moment you had it years ago
Remember whe Luffy met Momo as a dragon in Punk Hazard and Momo asked him how to change back into human and Luffy said he didn't known cuz he's not a zoan type? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
Now that I think about it. If Luffy is a zoan, that means he might have another form in which we will see his full zoan form. Coz I still think Gear 5 isn't his final form. G5 might actually be just his hybrid form. I don't know, may be I'm just stretching a bit.
Don't worry, Luffy is also stretching a bit and in his case a little bit too much.
G4 works more as Luffy's hybrid form bc he resembles Nika while still clearly being Luffy, whereas in G5 Luffy looks so much like Nika neither Momo or Yamato recognized him
Luffy ate human human fruit, why would he have a hybrid form between a human and another human? It's very clear that it's his awakening and final form.
@@orangejuice3205Gear 4th beinh a hybrid form doesnt make sense since it also requires alot of haki to activate. Realisticslly luffy is always in his hybrid form since hes always made of rubber.
@@megamonmon Yamato can use ice powers in her base form so why would being rubber make Luffy's base his hybrid?
Have a nice One Piece Day.
Greetings from Germany.
38:00 BRO TURNED INTO A HELICOPTER 💀💀
Hey, Im living in Israel and my country is literally in hell situation right now, from yesterday 300+ people died from hamas terrorists, and it just keep getting bad, this video is what i need right now to pull me through this horrible nightmare that we are living right now so thank you so much for that❤
Love seeing you so happy. That confirmation of theories hits different.
What's going to be really fun is now that you're going back to reading the manga, that Punk Hazard interaction between Luffy and Momo about Zoan fruits is going to be so much funnier.
It's been theorized that Luffy will have a Gear 6. This form is what we see with him in the moonlight. What happens when he's actually becoming God Nika at high noon with the sun beating down on him directly?
Luffy actually died (Or at least very close to) but since zoan fruits have a will of their own it kinda revived Luffy Eneru style 😂
the moment nami gets emotional you know shit is about to go down.
Seeing the gorosei now after what happened hit different.
This is why it was referred to as peak and breaking the internet. We just got bamboozled. His fruit is a good fruit, not just a rubber man
Kaido's had the 2 BEST fights of his LIFE stolen from him by outside parties... Imagine how much that must SUCK for someone who LIVES for the fight but is just too strong to get it in almost ALL cases.
I love how confused Kaido looks for so much of the gear 5 fight. Like he went from the undisputed strongest man in wano, one of the strongest people in the world, and now a looney toons guy he just killed is tossing him around like a rubber toy
Being a manga reader...the most hyped I have ever been for the anime was waiting for what the drums of liberation would sound like. Not disappointed....
Isn't it so fitting that the brothers of the Sun God have both held the power of fire?
Bro, Jimbei telling me to sub!? How can I ever deny my GOAT!
this awakening was sickkkk! OP is amazing😭Im new here though, what was your theory about the sun in relation to the anime? im intrigued
Boom knew it at Amazon Lilly!! King
OVERTAKEN!
P.S. "I don't know, I'm not a Zoan type"
Yes! I immediately remembered it. We were hinted at even then. Oda is a genius
this is my favorite reaction to G5 so far
Glad you got to see Gear 5 in the anime before you caught and had to see it in the manga. Animation is the only way to truly appreciate the power of Gear 5.
Finally someone Who's appreciating Gear 5 Thank you for your Amazing reaction!! :))
BE THE JOY !
Many people are saying that Luffys new powers are over the top but for me as a Looney Tunes fan it is just perfect XDD
Boom: Be the joy!
Luffy: ok! 😁
Boom manifested this in the series.
30:15 "It's dark and stuffy in here!" Is that a Frieren reference, or are One Piece and Frieren both referencing a third piece of media?
It's official we're here boys and girls!!
"Does Kaido actually stand a chanse right now?"
To answer your question. No. Luffy's Ability basically just became "Imagination" Anything he can think of he can do.
2 episode and 3 episode broke the internet for 2 weeks
Oh....and for the record....the drums you hear is Luffy's heartbeat.
one piece the only show where you be like... that mf cannot get strong enough fast enough - 300 episodes later. meanwhile most show give upgrades every 3-4 episodes
""He looks so cartoony and too playful..he looks weak""
Me as an intellectual One Piece Fans : boy look at those overwhelming Hakoshoku Haki .. that's some real shit right there
Usopp predicted that eye-poppin face reaction when he scare Sugar haha
Nice to see a reaction from someone not spoiled on gear 5.
Luffy Sun and Zoro Moon almost.
Because Skypea.
What was Enels goal? The moon.
What tech did Zoro developed there? Phoenix cannon.
Kozuki have what 2 symbols? Moon and Phoenix.
Where did Luffy deal with issues of liberation? Those sun moments you kept bringing up.
Amazing right.
this shit was so emotional
Boom was always right about the sun
