ok backlog of thoughts on the one piece arcs i did not think to liveblog! putting a bunch under a read more because this got long and i don’t want to make a ton of separate posts for retroactive takes.
- luffy really just set out to sea with the thought process of “if i die well lmao.” decidedly unlmao, but don’t tell him that. he also immediately decided koby made a perfect punching bag
- the entire exchange with zoro was basically “join my crew!” “no.” “i think you should.” “guess i have absolutely no choice but to join.” and that is now their entire story
- luffy getting anyone to join his crew is basically just that gif that cuts between bryan cranston dancing and pointing at himself. luffy isn’t asking, either. welcome to the crew, you start in an hour.
- also, love this dinghy. two dudes, chilling in a small boat two feet apart because there’s no room. luffy’s having a blast with his two man crew and zoro’s just along for the ride. completely unfazed. gonna work on his tan and nap.
- also, also. they showed it later in the anime but it was the first thing in the manga, but luffy stabbing himself in the face. see, i remember reading the first volume in middle school so i was waiting for that scene. i also had vague memories of other characters like zoro and sanji, so it was nice to see them appear again. not so nice to remember my first introduction to one piece was the 4kids version lmao
- i love makino. this woman is like 20 on the outside but you know after dealing with luffy and shanks & co. she’s gotta be feeling 50 on the inside. i hope she gets to hit someone with a broom at some point. or go on vacation.
- shanks is like the cool uncle you’ll let watch your kid for a few hours, but only because you called another adult to watch shanks. the dude leaves a devil fruit on the bar in plain view of a hungry child and goes yep, surely nothing will come of this. of course he fuckin’ ate it. freaked out for a minute and went damn, well what can you do lol this is inconvenient
- these bandits coming into the bar and giving shanks shit, only to have luffy give the leader shit back and the guy decides well! guess i, a grown man, have no choice but to beat up a child.
(karma said lmao)
- nami showed up and said she’ll fuck luffy’s shit up if she has to. and then she did. good for her.
- i think the introduction of buggy was the first time i really went oh, so we’re weird weird here, huh. i mean, with a name like “buggy the clown” being taken seriously that’s when it clicked. AND THEN HE STABS THE STRAW HAT? sir you’ve crossed a line. luffy’s gonna chop chop your head clean off and drop it in the ocean.
- when i got to the syrup village/kuro arc i was like damn, how long is this battle. oh you fool, you pathetic fool. you knew nothing.
- jango got sent after some kids to go kill them and like. not for nothing but if i had a nickel for every time someone went after a kid in this show ...
- ok but when kuro was doing his whoosh whoosh invisible move or whatever the hell it was, why didn’t someone just get out a stick and trip him. fight’s a lot shorter then.
- zoro’s backstory thus far is just here’s his friend! and now she’s dead! he has no friends but he has a dream! he + the others need therapists.
- see when we got to sanji i knew him!! i remembered this man. 4kids also gave him lollipops instead of cigarettes. lolly suckin’ loser. love zeff too. between the anime and manga i’m not sure which canon i want to lean into more: him severing his foot to save sanji, or him eating it.
- mihawk fight!! the way luffy SCREAMED when zoro nearly got slashed in half and the weight behind “i will never be defeated again. YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT, KING OF THE PIRATES?!” ohhh these two boys in a dinghy. there are a lot of promises being passed back and forth.
- the don krieg fight! idk that guy was just annoying. not much else to say about that aside being glad when it was over. also hilarious how for each of these fights everyone took their turns. like no, no, like mihawk and zoro fight, and then we’ll go next. and meanwhile those not involved are just pivoting to watch each fight.
- i feel so bad for baby sanji. i still want to study the grown man like a bug, but that baby has been through a lot. (hey, so, does this show hate kids or something.)
- arlong park! ok this was the first arc that really shows how deep the story can get, i think, or at least the first glimpse into it. this was more than “i took over this town to get some money.” this was using a young child to get something he wanted and her using him in return. and she had to work for the man who murdered her mother! who he shot right in front of her and then laughed and dragged her away!
- zoro beat up a bunch of fishmen because he got BORED. luffy told him to wait and “what do you do while i’m gone?” “wait for you to get back” except there are bodies everywhere
- NAMI STABBED HERSELF IN THE ARM SO MANY TIMES how does she not have serious muscle pain after that? AND THEN LUFFY GIVES HER HIS HAT. that’s the first time we’ve seen that one. oh my god
- also zoro is still heavily wounded from his fight with mihawk, arlong rips his bandages off and even he’s shocked he’s alive, nami and the others are horrified, and then luffy just fuckin’ tosses him into the ocean
- luffy’s secret move in a boss battle is just to piss them off. what’s the difference between their species? idk, noses? he’s going to break arlong’s. AND HE DID.
- luffy: “huh, maybe we should get a doctor on our crew first instead of a musician.” zoro, getting his innards sewn back in: “why do you say that?”
- he’s so excited about his bounty! good for him. he’s a wanted man.
- i like this smoker dude. seems like an okay guy.
- roronoa “can i borrow money but also jk i got two swords for FREE” zoro who has so much debt his credit score has plummeted. he’s never going to be able to financially recover from this.
- usopp v daddy fight. words i didn’t think i would say and yet.
- only luffy would nearly get executed and treat it as a “WHOOPS LMAOOOO” only to have an act of god save his life.
- the millenial dragons arc. oh my god. why does apis SCREAM LIKE THAT. they spend five episodes going back and forth to two different islands. “is this the right one? oh jk actually it’s the one we just came from.” is this what hell is like
- because sailing UP a mountain into the grand line makes perfect sense
- THE WHISKY PEAK STORY AHHHH the first moment where luffy jumps to conclusions and zoro doesn’t get a chance to explain himself, but also why should he have to? and luffy yells that he’s going to kill him? they’re supposed to trust one another implicitly! since day one! and then luffy punches him in the face and he’s not holding back and neither his zoro
- luffy says “i’m going to beat the shit out of you” and zoro says “go ahead and try” and nami says “WATCH THIS”
- love that vivi’s like don’t say his name too loud! and luffy immediately goes “who, CROCODILE?”
- an island with dinosaurs. because it just makes sense.
and that’s about caught up to where i started blogging during little garden

The 4kids One Piece opening has too good a beat for the lyrics to be as bad as they are.
For years I have been begging for a decent songwriter on SoundCloud or something to make an epic nerd rap track, and yet my calls remain unanswered.
If you know anyone who has done this, please show me.

Say what you will about the 4Kids dub, but I’m pretty sure that the only version where Gold Roger actually uses the phrase “One Piece” to describe his treasure

People really hating on 4Kids for making their own theme songs and doing things like the One Piece Rap….
WHEN THEY GAVE US THE POKÉMON THEME, AKA ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC ANIME OPENINGS OF ALL TIME, THE TMNT 2003 THEME, GOTTA GO FAST FOR SONIC X, THE YUGIOH THEME (rest in peace Kazuki Takahashi), GOD JUST
There are many reasons to hate on 4Kids but their theme songs are iconic and saying they should’ve stayed faithful with them….y’all need to remind yourselves what they made.

Having a bit of fun with names and chapter numbers for Miss Lingering Snow.
Chapters 913/914, The crane returns the favor - Otsuru introduces Okiku to Luffy and Zoro. Readers learn that she is a samurai and the three team up to rescue Otama.
Chapters 962-964, Becoming samurai - Izo and Kikunojo meet Oden. While the cute "sessha ♡" gives away that the role has always been a poor fit for her, Kiku becomes just like a samurai, and a L-A-D-Y she's a bit shy... I had to, no I won’t apologize for it, moving right along. Soon after, Oden leaves Wano and Izo is caught up in his escape.
Chapters 1012/1014, Life's lousy actor, or actress in this case - Izo and Kin'emon are both worried about Kiku, she calls back to when Izo left, then Kin'emon and Kiku split from the other Scabbards.
Kikunojo is unable to close off her loving heart, though I think she knew she wouldn't be able to, she was just too stubborn to admit it, and was defeated. I have nothing but respect for her maintaining such a friendly and loving heart after everything she has been through. Usopp would later call her out over her stubbornness in clinging to the lifestyle that she's always struggled with. I'm still in awe at how much of the essence of her character Oda was able to show in so few pages. (Also ouch, why Oda?)
Chapters 1062-1064 will be 50/100/150 chapters after others with major scenes involving Kiku as an individual. Credit to basedkikuenjoyer for the idea of 150 chapters separating important events for characters. Originally for Marco.
If her having such little dialog and being absent from many scenes it would have made sense to include her in during Wano's finale wasn't strange enough, no I don't think Oda "ran out of time," then there currently being no goal that progresses Luffy's story on this new island makes things truly bizarre.
Around the ends of Wano’s first two Acts, Kiku has a pattern of disappearing for a while, then soon showing up in a different location with a different group or outfit at the start of the next.
Kiku quietly resting in one of the rooms on the Sunny, after asking not to be disturbed, would fit her to a T. In 1061, a big shark/robot shook up the ship and potentially did just that.
And what's with Chopper having a hat that Tama made for him and VP's comment about controlling the urges of animals? Call me crazy but those things paired together seem blatantly intended to bring Little Miss Ninja in Training's powers to mind. Oda, you can't keep including things like this and not expect me to think about Act 1. I’m not going to form expectations though needless to say, I am curious to see how events progress.

This song is the revamped version of the original One Piece Pirate Rap which now includes the current Staw Hat members Robin, Franky, Brook, and Jinbei. This production is meant to maintain the memorable essence of the original 4Kids English opening while adding crowd participation to allow fans to vocally celebrate One Piece's legacy.

What's one thing you've been dying to ask the mun?
( accepting )
@evxdent said: What got you into the one piece fandom originally? :3
It was a combination of the poorly dubbed 4kids version plus the serialization of the manga in the physical copies of Shonen Jump I used to buy back in my high school days, like 2007-2008. I've just been a fan of One Piece for a very long time. I don't know what had drawn me to this series, as at the time I was more interested in Naruto, Yugioh and Shaman King that was also serialized in the huge phone book, along with others.
But I think I started caring about the story around when Sanji was introduced. He is to this day, my favorite Straw Hat. ( sorry Zoro, you're my second favorite haha ). Mainly because he's a Pisces like I am and I love seeing fellow characters and people that share the same Zodiac as me because when I was growing up, there wasn't any popular bags or accessories that had my sign. So having characters that shared something like that makes me very happy.
I stopped reading the manga after the Shonen Jump went over to digital because my parents didn't want their credit card used on the internet and myself was too young at the time to get one. And with the 4Kids dub never finished, I dropped that too. It wasn't until the Funi dub was announced in my college years did I get back into the series. Mostly the anime though.
I didn't get back into the manga until the Whole Cake Island saga, since there is a YouTube channel that I like seeing their One Piece manga chapter reviews ever since 2017, so that's how I get updated. Their skits and talks about One Piece are very infectious. They do talk about other manga too but that's majorly what they cover. I recently ( 2020 ) started caring about Shigi here and want to kick my past self for not noticing how wonderful a character she actually is. I now get mad at those who hate her for no good reason.
Anyway, sorry about this long ass post, but hopefully I could convey what I wanted here to answer your question. Thanks for sending this in. <3
