all of the vegapunks speak quite distinctly, and from what i’ve seen, they all use different personal pronouns with different levels of formality! going in order from what we’ve seen so far:
1: shaka speaks quite formally (for a man, which i’m loosely assuming he is)- he uses watashi as his personal pronoun, which places him in a neutral/formal spot, and uses kimi to address the strawhats (which is somewhat diminuitive/maybe a little condescending) but omae to address dragon (conclusion: ???).
2: lilith speaks like a stereotypical old man- she uses washi as her personal pronoun and the masculine omae as her ‘you’ pronoun, and tends to use ja as her sentence-ending copula instead of da.
3: edison speaks kansai-ben (though i don’t know enough to say if it’s a specific subdialect)- he self-references with wai, which is a dialectal variant of the washi pronoun that lilith uses, and ends his sentences with ya in place of the regular da.
4: pythagoras is, from what we’ve seen so far, the most polite of the satellites- he’s the only one to consistently use polite verb forms.
5: atlas speaks probably the most aggressively, which suits her general demeanor but is very incongruous with her actual appearance- she uses the masculine ore for her first-person pronoun and omae for ‘you.’
6: haven’t really seen york speak yet besides, like, noises.

One Piece Chapter 1109 - Initial Thoughts
Tumblr media
Late on arrival but finally we're back to One Piece
The old stella is likely dead, but he's left a big broadcast behind Is he gonna spill all the tea? Let's not wait any longer
Spoilers for the Chapter, Support the Official Release
We're getting a Wano cover story now too, starting with Onigashima sent underwater (ok but how like it's massive!) atop Old Wano
I wonder what it'll focus on particularly? Yamato? Momo? Tama? Kaido and Big Mom statuses? Drake and Hawkins statuses?
Vegapunk's message however is a bit of a tease because of course it is
Shaka chimes in to mention how such a message will likely be blocked and intercepted, so they discuss piggybacking off of the Navy's comms
Thus, the Navy are unable to stop the transmission, as it spreads across everyone who has a Den Den Mushi
Vegapunk though also wants to provide time for people to set up the Visual snails for a picture, which'd take time for them to set up
Vegapunk gives people an hour, but Shaka advises against that since there will be those looking to censor them, so it's reduced to 10 minutes
Luffy and the crew are aware of this broadcast as well, they are curious about it though
Sanji just take a pulse and give it up
The Gorosei can still converse with Saturn all the way from Marejois!? Is it some telepathy maybe?
Saturn all but confirms that Vegapunk is dead, telling the others that Kizaru dealt a killing blow
But they are quick to realise that the message is as a result of a dead man's switch
Focus looks to turn onto the Labophase, despite being highly protected...nobody tell them that Kizaru can pass through the barrier
Pythagoras also chips in on the message for what they should do during the wait, since having a coffee may not be a good amount of time
The world is preparing for Vegapunk's message, including places we're familiar with
Dressrosa first; Kyros and Rebecca seemed to have been sparring
Leo is alive and well after his incident with Marejois, but true to the Tontatta he bought into the headlines that Luffy kidnapped Vegapunk
Foosha Village are also hearing about it, but they don't have a video screen, because iconic mayor Woop Slap don't have the money
Here's hoping they don't miss something important there, and that Makino is safe, the bar doesn't look damaged at least
The village already think this is gonna be Luffy slander anyway
At Water Seven it's late at night, so Iceberg is tired but amassing screens anyway, conducted mainly by Alice, the child assistant who is way past her own bedtime
But she does have Tyrannosaurus on her head so we'll give it a pass, she's in capable paws
Morgans also has the video up, with Vivi still worried about the crew
Morgans is quick to deduce that it's a pre-recorded message though, but expects that Egghead has already been wiped out
The other seas also prepare for Vegapunk's message, it must be kinda surreal for some of them since this is the first time they're seeing Vegapunk - plus there's 3 of them
Plus all 3 of the Vegapunks in the message are dead
The Revolutionaries also have the message, wondering what it's gonna be about
Dragon thinks back about Shaka's message though, and then continues to not do anything else
At the least there's a Sabo cameo there
Back to Luffy and he notes how Saturn and Kizaru keep coming back for more
He dodges an Eye Laser and a Poison leg, but he doesn't relinquish his hold
He's gonna keep fighting till his crew are safe
Gomu Gomu No Booming Dawn Cymbal squishes Admiral and Gorosei together
And with both flattened he continues the disrespect, spinning them like pizza dough
And then flinging them away like frisbees
Kizaru crashes into a warship, but Saturn pulls some boomerang action to come back at Luffy
Kizaru has had a headache just all day, serves him right too
Luffy avoids the poisonous buzzsaw return that Saturn poses, but the other Gorosei are intent to not let Vegapunk's message go out
Franky, Bonney, Kuma and Atlas make it to the Giants' ship, but still no word on Lucci vs Zoro, or how the Sunny intends to not crash into the barrier
Saturn agrees with his fellow Gorosei 'I shall perform the summoning'
Four cracks of black lightning strike Egghead
And now, there are Five.
Oh god oh jeez oh god oh jeez oh GOD oh jeez ALL THE GOROSEI ARE HERE.
I don't think Luffy can last a 5 on 1 of the Gorosei, Zoro stop dicking around with Lucci, Sanji you gotta drop the old man, Jinbe navigate Zoro and yourself to Luffy and someone else come for support (Robin is injured plus she would be a focus target so probably not her, Usopp? Nami? Brook? Chopper?), or maybe the Giants can back him up? Or the Sleeping Giant?
Things are heating up but now we have more situations to deal with; we can't leave the island too soon or else the Gorosei will stop the message, but if we linger then the Gorosei could do a lot of damage.
There's a break to deal with first of course, but god(a) we need some answers! And we need some things to wrap up, because we still don't have a solution for how those in the Labophase are gonna get out, also I hope Sentomaru got out, bit of a rough day for him; the man he was hired to protect died at the hands of his 'uncle', he betrayed the marines for the former and it was for naught, gotta feel bad for the guy.
We might be seeing all of the Gorosei's powers next chapter though, but it makes you wonder, if all five are here does that mean they won't be in the endgame?

One piece 1090 spoilers!!!!
Okay so rob Lucci is a fucking narc and we all knew it, it's like he forgot that he's also gonna be killed by the WG for failing and ASSISTING the straw hats
Kaku might turn ngl, I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't, but he clearly holds logic over a grudge. He might realize that he's gonna be killed anyway and decide to turn from CP0 just like Stussy
Shaka and Pythagoras dead? I bet Shaka is gonna make one more appearance as a final sacrifice to make sure everyone makes it off the island. As for the rest of the satellites:
- Pythagoras: you might be missed
- Edison: might not make it out let's be real
- Lilith: might be the last of them to die trying to get the Sunny to safety
- Atlas: could sacrifice herself in a fight
- York: fuck her I hope she dies but because she's an antagonist she might make it out alive
The only one I think is gonna live is Stella, as he should, and maybe York. I think Sentomaru might be put in jail??? I don't know what to make of him yet. I don't know what Stussy will do afterwards, she could really go in any direction.
We're definitely going to Elbaf next so USOPP AND ROBIN CHARACTER ARCS!!! I don't care how you feel about Saul still being alive, the reuniting scene of him and Robin is gonna be amazing in both the manga and anime.
Stella said that strong emotions are passed on as part of the lineage factor during cloning. What does this mean for all the pacifista, the Germa clones, the artificial devil fruits, etc? Does S-Flamingo(?) think he's at the top of the world? Do S-Bear and the other Pacifista have fatherly feelings for Bonney?
SPEAKING OF what does she know now? Bonney I need answers 🔪🔪🔪
Kizaru development?? I'm so excited to see what happens. And seeing Saturn view humans as insects really puts into perspective the mindset of the Elders, especially Imu. They're gonna be willing to throw away anything and anyone if it'll help them keep their power. What else will they destroy in order to stop the Straw Hats? Elbaf? Unlikely
And what could possibly happen here at Egghead to drastically change the world? Dude I'm fucking losing it

2809 Met het Mes op Tafel
Om elf uur gaan we naar Hilversum, waar we ruim op tijd aankomen en eindeloos moeten wachten. We kijken met andere kandidaten naar de opnamen op drie tv’s die niet synchroon lopen en veel te hard staan, waardoor het een enorme teringherrie is. Er komen broodjes en dan mogen we naar de make-up. Even later komen mijn supporters binnen en wordt de sfeer hartelijk en gezellig. We mogen naar de studio…

Elodie, is there an amount I can pay you to persuade you to translate all of Moby Dick like that during Whale Weekly? It's incredible and I desperately want to read the whole thing. I am serious about the money.
(In reference to this “line by line translation of the first chapter of Moby Dick into insufferable modern idiom” I wrote:)
For those who don’t know, Moby Dick is getting a Dracula Daily treatment starting November 21, which will be called “Whale Weekly.” Rumor has it that it will take ~2 years to complete. I’ve seen a blog called @whaleweekly which is collecting an initial book club, and I believe there’s a discord, etc, so there should be a small community of people to read it with.
People HAVE been deliciously split between “reading this post has been strangely educational, and has made Moby Dick easier to understand in its original form” and “OP this is an active and violent warcrime and feels like acid on my skin,” which are exactly the two emotions I like to evoke in my writing.
And I AM about to go on maternity leave for about a year, so it’s tempting! I get demonstrably weird when my intellectual life is supposed to revolve around babies too much. Based on prior experience I write strange posts like “why are dogs dogs” and get way too invested in correcting people on the internet who are wrong. This strongly suggests, in fact, that I (being mentally healthy ofc) need to be more mature about things and simply go to sea. Or simply have a clear project. And part of mat leave, even with good benefits, is always unpaid and therefore terrifying, so it seems charming and hilarious to counter that by “graduate level analysis of Moby Dick.” CAN YOU IMAGINE. What a conversation starter.
“What are you doing after rhyme time?”
“Oh, putting this thing down for a nap and translating Moby Dick for tips.”
“Translating? Like, into another language?”
“You could say that yeah”
But I’ve never taken money on the internet, so I’d have to think about it. Especially the pressure I would feel was implied to produce something worth paying for. Like, in the first chapter of Moby Dick there’s a whole entire joke to unpack about Pythagoras, beans, winds, and farting. It’s an elaborate fart joke that I just didn’t sit down to unpack because I wrote it on a lunch break: I would feel more compelled to unpack every joke and reference and modernise them, and that would literally become a graduate-school-level course of study.
Also, I really don’t have the education and political knowledge to think deeply and helpfully enough about Ishmael’s/Melville’s racial lenses, nor do I have the savvy and experience to interpret them usefully for a diverse audience, that will naturally consist of people at all different levels of learning. It’s fine enough to translate the first chapter, so that people can see how underneath the 19th century styling, this is an unreliable narrator with lots of things wrong with him, and lots of jokes that you’d miss.
But the layers on layers of “how to interpret Ishmael-via-Melville’s chaotic, festering, toxic, educational, revelatory, exoticising, sympathetic, distasteful race relations - which show the underpinnings of American racial construction and other educational things, and are quite useful for humanities majors to study - without referencing Elodie’s own politics? or having Elodie be annoyed by people assuming that interpreting 19th century literature means that Elodie subscribed to Melville’s beliefs?” (Because I have some experience with reading comprehension on the internet, enough to make me look at some chapters of the Big D and say, I am not touching that in public, not even with a very long harpoon). If it was for a graduate-level or lived-experience or otherwise politically savvy/invested audience you could trust everyone a bit more to get to work on critical thinking and unpacking the translation, but if your audience is naturally assembled because you promised to make something accessible, the intention of the project being to make it accessible to more people, then you have to take your lumps and accept that people will take the translated content in bad faith and will go, like, “wait, this is uncomfortable content!!! I take it at face value! I blame YOU for it!” And I’d have to think REALLY proactively about how I managed that. If I was a scholar of English, literature or politics I would consider it my duty to do so; but I minored in English a long time ago and am on the journey of gradual acceptance that my best contributions are basically just jokes.
This is a long-winded answer to a lovely question, and probably shows way too much insight into why I enjoy comprehending Moby Dick.

One Piece Chapter 1065 - Initial Thoughts
Tumblr media
And we are back from the break to jump into another chapter of the Vegapunk arc
Red is out in more theaters (I still haven't watched it though which is painstaking), and it's a round number chapter after a break which means something is going down.
Let's see what Oda has for us this week
Spoilers for the Chapter, Support the Official Release
Cover page is a Red colorspread of the Straw Hats, Red Hair's 'Top Officers', Koby, Oven and Katakuri, with Uta in the middle
Zoro and Brook note their reason of staying to start with, since it's a Government island they are keeping their guard up and staying back to help bail the others out
Caribou is still on-ship, but he doesn't want to be dropped off on a Government island, even though they agreed to drop him off to the next island
Zoro isn't having his bargaining though, he thanks Caribou for helping Luffy (in a soft manner) and says bye
The Lab group marvel at the use of escalators
Seems that Vegapunk is powering everything by fire (fire being a key element of the story) but natural resources to burn are limited
Lilith is looking into options though, she would love to create her own Sun, not sure if literal or metaphorical
Lilith walks through an entire wall too, is it a hologram?
As Lilith talks to Edison, the Straw Hats also try to grasp this door, which returns to being solid when they go through it
Edison is now chatting with the group via comms
Nami back into burglar mind, it has been a while since she stole anything
Usopp gets a future kick for calling Nami 'either a child or an old hag'
Oh...Seraphim Jinbe
Since they've never seen a Seraphim they try to understand what's going on; actual Jinbe? Long lost son? Coincidence?
Franky though knows it's a Pacifista
The irony that Zoro - the only one of the group who has fought a Lunarian - isn't here to fight the Seraphim
Realising they've been lured into a trap ('tis a Government island after all) the group enter battle stations
Oh...Jinbe has Senor Pink's powers!?
Is it just replication or is Senor Pink dead? Because the Mihawk and Boa Seraphim didn't have fruit powers
Seems Seraphim Jinbe has the Star eyes
With Nami in its clutches, Sanji hits a Diable Jambe Vega Shoes and all
Giant Naked Kaiju Robin also comes out for some more Fishman Karate attacks
Seraphim Jinbe can use Fishman Karate too, so Usopp uses Skull Bombgrass to attack but again it keeps using the Swim Swim powers to escape
Now with Usopp in its clutches, Franky aims for a Radical Beam
Seems the Jinbe Seraphim is called 'S-Shark'
Of course Edison and Lilith are watching the battle unfold, had a feeling it was more of a test run for both the Straw Hats and the Seraphim
Naturally, Edison's design is unexpected, tiny little creature
Edison laments that the Seraphim hasn't been tested for lasers, it also causes Lilith to go a little more feral about the cost
Edison though runs off to have more ideas, leaving Pythagoras - also very robot looking - to collect the battle data
Still kinda hoping Edison's a fraud just because of historic reasons but he gets catto assistants so that's already unfair
We also see York, who is being the Punks' feeder it seems, hive mind and hive stomach I guess
Pythagoras notes how the lineage factor of the Seraphim adapts during the fight, but does that mean that S-Shark recognizes his crew? Or is there like a DNA cutoff point and this was before Jinbe met Luffy?
Also Pythagoras is tiny, he's just got an extra remote body
How can you use the bathroom you're a cue ball with arms??
York again seems to be the bodily needs one, thinned down to regular size and taking a nap
Shaka arrives to call off the Seraphim, and make sure his fellow Punks have had their fill (Lilith remains annoyed that there was not enough bloodshed)
I FUCKING CALLED IT! The Vega Shoes do have restrictive capabilities, since the Lab group are magnetically locked to the floor
I said it here just in case you missed it, since it only got one heart and no reblogs ;_;
Usopp's had it to here with all the people saying they're Vegapunk
"Do you think this island looks like the future?" ...Oh.
Even though Franky's fanning out, Shaka reveals that this is an island of the past
As Luffy's group discovers (Luffy carrying a pipe as his walking stick) with an overgrown mecha, the technology of Egghead isn't new
This is technology from an Ancient Kingdom 900 years ago: Void Century period
Of course Luffy sees something gigantic and wants to play with it XD
Welp, couple of Theory Confirmed moments here
JoyBoyTheories entertained the idea that Vegapunk was being targeted for death because he, like the ancient kingdom, was growing too advanced and the WG prefer to keep the best tech only for themselves, and it seems he was onto something there.
Also I'm still buzzed that my Dom Shoes theory was right like the immediate chapter after XD
We got to see the rest of the Punks too. Honestly, I feel weird about the fact that Oda made all the male Punks look like robots while the female Punks all look like humans (or at least humanoid in Atlas' case). It's not a bad design but it is unusual, at first I thought it was something like the earlier ones look more like robots but Lilith is 02 so that went quickly out of the window. We'll see how it goes though, Shaka does pose an imposing figure and York seems to be the black sheep somewhat - it seems like they use her to bypass other bodily needs and keep working, which would mean if CP0 kill her it'd probably be immediately noticed by the others. I dunno I think I'm still a little thrown that Edison and Pythagoras look like Eggman minions.
Caribou being let off the ship is probably unwise, he is a thief after all, plus it is the last slither of Carrot hope I have because it still pisses me off if we're leaving her ending like that.
Seraphim Jinbe using Senor Pink's Devil Fruit opens a new can of worms about who the World Government have at their disposal, is it really just Warlords? And are they replicating, homaging or using Devil Fruits? The fact that they sent a Jinbe Seraphim means there was definitely a play to not only see how the crew reacted to fighting a child version of their crewmate but to see if any lineage factor impulses have come to play.
The Laputa energy is not lost on me either, my favourite Ghibli movie is getting a lot of similarities in this arc, mainly revolving around the super advanced ancient civilization and near-indestructible mechas, plus we literally have a pirate gang and the government getting involved too, all we need is Franky to do a flex-off with someone.
Simply put Oda's left a lot on the board to sink our teeth into, but still never enough answers to them
