Ooh....
One Piece isekai story but. different
So there's a teenage boy. Reads One Piece. Loves the battles, the characters' strength and determination, the wildness of the world and all the adventures.
One day, as often happens, he gets hit by a bus and reborn into the One Piece world.
It takes some time for him to grow up enough to realize it's the One Piece world - he was reborn for real, and his brain takes a bit to catch up to his first-life memories.
His new home is a small, uneventful village in the East Blue, not brushed by the main plot, and our isekai protagonist grows up wondering what to do with this second chance.
Because on the one hand, just being born into One Piece did not automatically give him main character energy. He doesn't have a Devil Fruit and has not managed to figure out how to become a powerhouse like Zoro or Sanji. Probably the smart thing to do would be to take his out-of-the-way location as a sign and avoid anything that looks like Plot.
On the other hand... he's in One Piece. There's so much cool stuff out there. This is everything he dreamed about the first time around. This is the best chance he'll ever have to become someone like Luffy or Zoro, the kind of person he's always wanted to be. How can he not take it?
This bounces back and forth in his brain the whole time he's growing back up. Even staying home doesn't protect you from loss, he learns when he becomes an orphan - this is both an argument for and against going anywhere.
And then. One day in his teens.
Luffy lands in the village.
Our protagonist recognizes him from hundreds of chapters and hundreds more episodes, with his crew by his side - or the beginnings of his crew, at least, there's hardly any of them. This must be early in canon.
Of course he makes friends with them. How could he not? They're the Straw Hats.
And, of course, they uncover an evil plot threatening his village - and, wait, he actually vaguely remembers this arc? Though it didn't go this way in the manga, because he wasn't there...
Huh. He's getting to affect a little bit of canon. And while our protagonist is more focused on making sure nothing goes wrong for the village and people he's grown to love, part of his brain is fanboying about that. He's gotten his brush with the real Straw Hats! He's gotten an adventure with them!
And he does okay. They save the day, and he even helped, and Luffy calls him a friend and even Zoro gives him approval. The rush is kind of a lot.
It makes things click. Our protagonist finally lets one side win in his mental argument. He'll never be happy if he doesn't go out and experience this world, reborn normie or not. He packs his bags and decides to set out, saying goodbye to the Straw Hats on his way. Maybe he'll even get to see them again--
Wait.
Why are they telling him to board their ship. Why are they asking him to join the crew.
This is way beyond a little canon divergence, and he knows he should say no, knows trying to insert himself into the main characters is insane...
But they want him. Luffy wants him to join his crew, and even a day in his company has made him feel like not just a character but a friend. Who can say no to Luffy?
...And, actually. He's already affected the plot. They got a ship out of this adventure, and he is 90% sure that didn't happen in canon. They tended to swap their ships out a lot in early arcs, so maybe it won't have a lasting effect, but...hey, maybe he won't either! Maybe this is just a little extension of his brush with greatness.
Maybe he can push his luck anyway.
So, with a laugh and a cheer, our isekai protagonist boards the Going Merry and asks - just to see - if he can be the captain.
Luffy says no, obviously, but that's okay. Usopp knows he was never supposed to be here - he's happy just to get a chance on the crew.

I was unaware this book existed so when I picked it up I had no idea what I was getting into. As I was reading through, my eyes were getting a bit misty (I was crying who am I kidding), I got to the back cover and absolutely sobbed in the middle of my used bookstore.
@neil-gaiman I read through the letters you all wrote for this book, and it just made me wish even more that I had the chance to meet that wonderful man at least once. I knew I couldn't put it back on the shelf and walk away, so I brought it home and it sits on the shelf with the rest of my Terry Prachett and Neil Gaiman book collection where it belongs. 🩷

I think the funniest dynamic for arranged-marriage royalty would be a queen who came here 100% prepared to murder her future husband and rule as a widow queen in her own right, only to discover that the king is autistic as hell and responds to her wish to rule with "oh thank god please do, I don't want to be bothered by these people. I can just tell them to go bother you instead, if you really want that. I've got beetles I wanted to study."

stupid ugly doodle
sorry guys, my english sucks, so here is a bad attempt at translation:
image 1:
Rin: Kuro, I'm home...
image 2:
Satan: Hey!
image 3:
Rin: WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE?!
image 4:
Satan: Calm down, I'll explain it to you
image 5:
Satan: Look, I appreciate the new body. But I'm not going to make a war 2.0
Satan: (That didn't go well last time, no offense...)
Lucifer: LEAVE NOW!
image 6:
Satan: Soo, he kicked me off the ship in Japan, so I decided to come here
image 7:
Satan: You promised you would help me, remember?
image 8:
Rin: Fuck...

You talking about there being no body for Lami has got me thinking about her showing up, brainwashed or something, commanded to fight Law and he just has the most heart broken look on his face
(Bonus points if he lets her hurt him and she finally snaps back to herself to meet his gaze and he smiles at her even as blood starts to drip from the corners of his mouth-)
nnnnnOOOOOOOOOOOOO
