    "Not like muscular Zeus but like Zeus from the ancient..."
    Zeus and all the Greek gods were portrayed as muscular and as the peak of physical fitness by the ancient Greeks themselves.
    Enels form was the thunder god Raijin from Japanese Shinto religion.

    15:43 This whole sequence parallels with the new game One Piece Odyssey...which is basically kind of a What-If
    because, someone steals our abilities, and we have to go through each arc and recover them, but there was a catch, hence What-If.
    Jon is like Luffy....Luffy's whole memory is fuzzy, so the kingdom/towns placement were switched up.."Was this place here?"😂

    With regards to the L/R thing in japanese:
    So it's a little unintuitive but there is neither L nor R. From their perspective they are only concerned with らりるれろ. These are characters that are commonly transcribed as ra, ri, ru, re and ro, but that's only because the pronunciation for these sounds is something that's not exactly like L or like R but somewhere in the middle. It means either L or R sounds get transformed into the same set of syllables when converting into japanese, and trying to turn these japanese sounds into english or otherwise can be a bit of gamble sometimes.
    There's a number of similar examples besides l and r. V is not a sound that exists natively in japanese, and though modern reforms have introduced the means to represent it in japanese, it is still by and large pronounced like B.
    Another classic example that has spawned passionate disagreements is how the 'th' sound like in 'this' or 'therapy' doesnt exist in japanese either, and is typically represented with す(su). Which led to the Final Fantasy 7 character エアリス having her name initially translated as Aeris, before later being changed to Aerith.

      In the end, there are roman letter official translations of OP character names, so we know his name is supposed to be pronounced Enel, not Eneru. This Eneru thing is just one of those downsides of fansubs, they love their japanisms. We can see its supposed to be written and pronounced Enel in the OP card game, OP video games, any official OP product basically where you can see or hear his name translated.
      Its the same as how some fansubs used to call the town of the beginning and the end Roguetown because it sounds like the japanese VAs are saying that, but the town literally has a gate with roman letters saying "Loguetown" and this was literally drawn by Oda.

    Also keep in mind that you've seen humoid fish people in arlong, a specific species. Just a distinction I wanted to point out.
    It's very subjective when we talk about arcs and their scores, some weirdos actually skip this arc for some reason. I'm of the opinion that, if you love our crew and their antics, every arc is the best one. For me personally, Skypeia is 8.75 indeed, especially for the lore and characters that got introduced.
    See you in G8 guys. I'm super hyped!

    Endless Vearth was always the Moon, yes. On his home sky island of Birka, in their religion, they believe the Moon is where gods live. This is important lore for the OP world btw.
    The Blue Sea wouldn't really be "endless Vearth" because its majority water. Also Enel kept mentioning Blue Sea separately in different conversations, so he clearly distinguished the two as separate things.

They then proceeded to punch an unpunchable god so hard he ran away to the moon. And it's not even a weird adventure. The strawhats are just Like That. This is classic strawhat behaviour. Wild.

    "Enel" is closer to sounding the way it's said in Japanese. Although "Eneru" is technically the right romaji transliteration, imo it's an unfortunate choice for a subtitle since most of the people reading it aren't going to know how to pronounce romaji. the spelling "Eneru" makes native English speakers (at least those who aren't aware of Japanese pronunciation) pronounce it like "Ennaroo," which is way off. Write it however, but say "Enel." ♥
