Fun fact! The Mother Flame is called exactly that in Japan too, it’s not a translation. However, if you do translate to japanese it becomes “母の火” (Haha No Hi) which can be a double entendres for “母の日” (Haha No Hi) meaning Mother’s Day, because the chapter was released on Mother’s Day 2024! Doing lore drops on tangentially related things like date of release is such a cool Easter Egg.
39:16 Ace introduced himself as Luffy's brother, and Shanks said he wasn't aware that Luffy had a brother. This does not mean that Shanks was unaware that Roger's child had been given to Garp.
I think with this chapter we've visited every single major location in the story during this message, plus a few extras. The only ones I think we’ve yet to see are Skypiea, Little Garden, and maybe Wano but they're all special cases. It's fascinating that Vegapunk makes mention of Icarus' wings because Vegapunk himself could've just as easily been inspired by Daedalus, the inventor of the labyrinth in Greek myth and Icarus' father. Also the creator of the wax wings that killed Icarus. It makes so much sense that Joy Boy would be the first pirate. Now I want to do research on who the "first pirate" in real life is. And I really hope in chapter 1115 we get people who know Luffy to make the connection that Joy Boy's ability sounds like Luffy's powers. Maybe even Luffy going "Hey that sounds like me". I really want the Mother Flame to either be a weird color like green or purple or be constantly shifting colors. But honestly, I think my favorite part of the chapter is Doflamingo making fun of Magellan for wanting to protect his precious prison. Is anyone else suspicious that they focused on Shalria, Charlos' sister? Is the implication with Shalria that the Gorosei are keeping the existence of the VC from the CDs or is the implication that they don't care? Could she turn into another "good" celestial dragon? And I was so happy to see Saul again!
The "first pirate" would, I'd assume, be a viking, as they were technically the first seafaring pillagers. Seems appropriate considering the origins of Nika and Joy Boy coming from Elbaf. But that would be an interesting rabbit hole to dive into. I want the Mother flame to be rainbow, but that might just be the queer in me. Shalria being shocked makes me think that they teach a false history during that period, kinda like the Fire Nation from ATLA. If she does switch sides, I'd love to see if there is a civil war, surely Vegapunks message is going to get people thinking on all sides that maybe they aren't on the right side.
Some part of me thinks that Joyboy became or strengthened the Ancient Mother Flame at the cost of his life, willingly or unwillingly, and that's why his friends were apologizing - he did all that while wanting to bring about peace, but his and his crew's/friends' efforts still weren't enough to overcome the siege by the twenty kingdoms. (Apologies, I know you're no fan of theory-crafting lol)
Luffy inherited the will of shanks who inherited the will of roger who inherited the will of joyboy. The devil fruit was eaten by accident and luffy was able to meet the requirements to awaken it because of who he is. Joyboy ate the sun god nika fruit which is implied to exist even before joyboy as a legend.
Bro, is it just me or is melon gorgeous!? I've been a fan of her content for years now and I only recently saw her face. Like bro the pink hair works 😂. Anyway melons videos are fantastic loved the recent luffy.
People take the 'devil fruits are manifested desire' too literally. All Vegapunk was saying was that they were man-made. We were all expecting a reveal on what DF are at the time, but we didn't get it. Even if it is that they spontaneously generate when people want hard enough, just saying that isn't an explanation.
we simply don't know enough to say one way or the other. the exact Vegapunk quote was "every devil fruit is a possibility for human evolution that someone desired" So they are manifested desires according to his theory. The actual formation of the fruit is still a mystery though.

35:50 other protagonists are chosen because they're nepo babies while luffy is chosen because he's actually qualified for the job.
Mama Melon thanks for breakfast.

How have I not noticed it was “Teee” and not “Tree” until now?! 😱

catching up to the manga from the anime at the moment for the sole purpose of watching these vods, gambatteeeeeee
36:37 So what you're saying is: Luffy's got that gawd in him?
Stupid, terrible, awful Doffy with his dumb laugh 😤I love how he's just gossiping with Magellan while he's locked up lmao
Remember back during the Reverie that assassins were coming to kill Doflamingo. Magellan is there to protect him.
@@ReiseLukas I had forgotten that Doffy had said that! Thank you for reminding me :D

First time seeing a vod of yours, I found your channel just a month ago, but I really enjoy your character analysis!
Also very cute hairbuns
Luffy stabbing his own eye made Nika/Joyboy laugh which granted him the power.
40:48 This is so good in the Live action because Koby said Luffy was always a pirate
Big Mom is for sure NOT DEAD. She is a goddamn monster and falling into some lava is not enough to stop her. XD
I feel 100% the same way about Luffy not being specifically chosen, when people say that I feel like it’s unfairly reductive
this is the first time I saw what you looklike and dare I say, you look exactly as I expected lol
good analysis looking forward to more
Imagine if joyboy had a story similar to noland
I feel like watching this live would give me an anxiety attack in the best way possible
I loved your Luffy analysis. Beautiful work of art.
Just in time

In my heart, it's still MelonTree.
If bigmom comes back, I’ll eat my pillow
I can’t believe I just found out you had a VOD channel…

HOW DID I NOT KNOW YOU HAD A SECOND CHANNEL
Wait you have a VOD channel?!?! I was today years old... SUBSCRIBED!
Pink buns big fun!
Hey I know ur channel for more than a year now but it's the first time i see ur face, you're more pretty than what I expect, love ur videos
She looks almost exacty like what I was picturing and I mean that in the good way.
@@ReiseLukas same, tho as a fellow pink haired catgirl, I wish my hair was as nice as hers xD

32:56 real
