    What makes Buggy more amazing is that despite all the times that he fails upward throughout the series, he didn't use his Captain's name for influence just so he can have all the fame and power he would've easily had. NOT EVEN ONCE. He's a genuinely loyal person.

Also love getting more of Dragon and getting to see more of his ideology. And of course all of the King Cobra and Lili stuff was great.

    The dichotomy I see in Buggy vs Luffy (which are weirdly linked on it's writing) is that people follow Buggy as a debt, but people follow Luffy because he shows them what's right, owing nothing to him or the strawhats. At the end, they celebrate together, Luffy even pays for his food using his crews money as it's only fair to do so. Oda is brilliant, ffs.

    Buggy has been a villain, a vaudeville, a joke, a fraud, an anti-hero, and more. He speaks to the underdog in all of us, which is why I think we all have a soft spot for him. I really think that, come series end, he will have earned the hype directed toward him.

    I like how Oda created the perfect Yonko in the heads of Crossguild. Mihawk is the muscle and stoicism, Croco-boy is the brains and the rage and Buggy is the wackyness Oda puts in every mayor character, but also the ambition. He knows what it takes to be the pirate King. No tricks, no bullshit. Only courage and ambition. Only those that are willing to get up and shout it out loud deserve to be Pirate King.

    What I REALLY REALLY want for Buggy is a heartfelt moment with Shanks at some point. Where Buggy confides in Shanks and tells him that he thinks he’s in over his head. And I want Shanks to validate him and say something like: “nah, I knew you’d get here. You’re a goofball, but you’re my brother and I always knew we’d be at the top together someday.” Which would embolden Buggy and make him act like a captain to all his troops.

  • @7thlittleleopard7
    @7thlittleleopard7 Рік тому +37

    The Lili theory I'm running with is that she was Toki. She knew the WG would be after her and she didn't want to cause trouble for her homeland (thus leaving her brother in charge to rule), this was after whatever happened with JoyBoy and the country that is hidden from the world, so she wanted to go somewhere she knew she'd be safe - Wano, who was closing their borders. So she changes her name to Toki (reference to her fruit, so she'd never forget the past) and zoops into the future. There she meets Oden, realises Wano is still closed and that she's probably safely thought to be dead by the WG, so goes on a world tour to check out what happened while she was gone.
    She has a sword (one is missing from the 20 that are supposed to be in front of the throne), she has similarly coloured hair to Vivi (genetics over 800 years can change it a bit, but if we look at Vivi and Titi, it seems to breed true (consider her father has black hair but hers is a light blue like her mother)), and she was definitely running from something 800 years ago seeing that she zooped into the future.
    I think it fits pretty well. She eventually died but she knew that there was something coming in the future and sent her son to meet it, knew a lot more than she let on. It was my first thought when I heard about a mysteriously queen who vanished and damnit, we know that Toki is going to come back up in some way, shape or form, so this is a good connector (imo).

      @7thlittleleopard7 Рік тому

      @@mr.protagonist5639 While I'm pretty sure they didn't confirm her death, I don't think she would have left her daughter alone for 20 years - if she intended to future zoop out of danger, maybe 2-3 years and then meet back up with at least one of her children to make sure they were safe and raised with love.
      I do believe she's dead, but I think the words she left behind are foretelling the return of Joyboy and the revelations found on the ponyglyphs. Also, with the new chapter information, this would make Momo a D, and Toki/Lili would have even more reason to dip to the future to make sure the ponyglyphs were protected - travelling with Roger probably set her mind at ease, knowing that they hadn't been lost to history and that people were still searching for them. That she'd done well in spreading the D.

    I saw a really interesting theory in the comments under the chapter on why Imu-sama may have been able to live as long as they have. It was basically that the air on Marie Geoise has life sustaining properties and thats why its referred to as the HolyLand and since Im has never left, theyve never aged. In comparison, the Celestial Dragons regularly leave and go down to the blue sea for tourism (Saint Jalmac during the ASL flashback) or just to purchase slaves, so they end up breathing the air on the sea and age as a result of that. This could also give a more concrete explanation on why the Celestial Dragons dress the way they do and give off astronaut/alien vibes. When it comes to the Gorosei, I think that there have probably been several generations of the 5 Elders, but not as many as the celestial dragons bc they only go down to the Blue Sea for specific missions (like Saint Jay Garcia Saturn heading to Egghead Island rn). That would explain they have varying ages and also why their appearances didnt seem to differ from now to the time that Vegapunk met the 5 Elders after receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in the cover story.
    Idk how supported this theory is overall by the text but the idea is really cool to me.

    Sengoku and Garp are interesting because they show opposite paths of Marine success. Garp could've easily became an Admiral but stuck to his ideals and turned it down in order to do what he saw as the most good. Sengoku grew up in the Marines alongside Garp and became Fleet Admiral, which put him under direct command of the Celestial Dragons. Sengoku isn't bad but he is passive to the WGs directives meanwhile Garp is free to act (much like Luffy) against their orders. Time will tell if Sengoku or Tsuru will join Garp's way of doing things but it's an interesting view of the Marine system and freedom if anything.

    I think Buggy and Ussopp are very similiar. Buggy's treasure map map was Ussop's Going Merry. These thinhs symbolized thier own personal doubt in thier ability. Both are held back in thier doubt in thier power and fear of weakness.
    I think somehow Buggy will end up helping Shanks get to Laughtale. Them reconciling and getting to Laughtale. Buggy helping a wounded Shanks will be Buggy reaching his dream by proving his worth.

    People are so confused with the chapter 1084, even big youtubers honestly.
    There is not a single chance imu being Lili.
    Imu's identity is a luffy-joyboy-gear 5 level revelation, (if not higher), like Roger son (ace), not a single chance oda gave away imu identity on a random episode, for absolutely no reason, with cobra.
    That's is like giving ace father information on episode 4 at alabasta arc, or give luffy's gear 5 on episode 3 in wano arc.
    That alone should be enough evidence that imu is not Lili.
    The whole interaction (imu calling Lili's name) is for oda to say that imu knew Lili(not through history books), which leads to the conclusion that imu was alive at Lili's era.
    But how was imu alive all those years?
    Imu having the law fruit surgery is a way(highly doubt it, law fruit only gives some kind of immortality, doesn't give power) but doesn't explain why the gorosei are kneeling to him (gorosei having all the navy-world government - holy knights - and probably are strong as fuck since they look more like fighters than anything).
    A way better theory would be of imu not being human so he doesn't have a human lifespan, and by gorosei addressing him as Great-Imu(greater than gorosei, gorosei are humans) it reinforces this theory.

    5:29 We all live under that impression, Merph, don't worry about it xDD
    As for Im or Imu, there's not truly way of knowing, because it's spelled in katakana as イム (I Mu), but katakana is a syllabary used to write phonetic approximations to foreign words, and due to it being composed of syllables that in most cases are "consonant + vowel" they tend to add an extra vowel (an O or a U) if a syllable would end in a consonant (for example, Piece, as in One Piece, that phonetically would be expressed as /piːs/, is spelled ピース or Piisu/Pīsu: ピ = pi, ー = makes the last vowel longer (so ī or ii), ス = Su). On top of that, those final vowels, even when they belong in a Japanese word, are barely pronounced: If you were asked your name, you would reply "Merphy desu" (I'm Merphy), but that last U is barely audible or even non-existent in many cases, ending up as "Merphy des". So now that イム has already appeared in the anime, we can't still be sure if it's meant to be Im or Imu, because you hear "Im" but that final U could still be there.
    It's the same reason we used to believe Laugh Tale was called Raftel: ラフテル can be anything from "La Hu Te Lu" to "Ra Fu Te Ru" (Ls and Rs, same as Fs and Hs are interchangeable), it was initially translated as Rafutelu, and then the Us taken away to form Raftel (I'm guessing because of "raft"), but it was Lafutelu, again removing those "final" Us getting away, to form Laf Tel, a ver simple phonetic approximation to Laugh Tale

  • @mathieuleader8601

    given how the guards of Castle Pangea referred to an IT in phantom room it could refer to IM which adds to my theory that IM is based of Yimir the hermaphroditic giant from Norse creation myth and as the Japanese theorised the use of an ancient user of the hormone fruit to allow the Kuja Tribe to have babies and only female babies perhaps this user turned IM into a hermaphrodite and perhaps Oda used this famous quote of Queen Elizabeth the I to make Lilli a hermaphrodite "I know I have the body but of a weak and feeble woman; but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England too".

    I love Buggy even more now, I knw he was more than just the gag many believed he was, but he proved that he has a strong will. He also represents the average person, that's why it's easy to resonate with him, meaning that he doesn't come from some great family, he achieved everything he has accomplished through a mix of work and luck. I also want to point out to the fact that Buggy unironically has the same ability that Luffy has and Mihawk said it was the most dangerous of all, the natural ability to attract people and turn them into allies, and he is also similar to Luffy in that he fuels people's dreams. And there are still people to this day saying that Buggy isn't a real Yonko, that Crocodile or Mihawk are, while the truth is that they can't really get rid of him, otherwise every follower of Cross Guild would revolt for their captain.

  • @colibri224

    I think Imu is Lili or one of her descendant.
    Mostly because of what Cobra said , I quote :
    "Internally, the 20 were considered equal. And to ensure that no individual dictator would rise up from among them they installed the empty throne. Each of them placed a weapon around the throne, to symbolize their VOW to NEVER TRY and sit upon it."
    However there's only 19 swords.
    Lily's sword is missing among the 20 : symbolicaly, it means she never took the vow.
    She never came back in Alabasta neither. The easy explanation would be that she was murdered during her return journey.
    But maybe... just maybe... she actually never left Mariegoise. Plus the fact Imu spared Vivi’s picture could also be a hint on their bloodline connection.

    • @7thlittleleopard7
      @7thlittleleopard7 Рік тому +1

      The only issue I have with this theory is that she left a letter behind talking about the D, among other things, that if she took over the WG she would NOT have wanted to get out. You could say 'familial sentimentality' overruled her desire to stamp out all and every reference to D, but even if that was the case, why wouldn't she have sent someone to get the letter back on the sly? Why would she have sent it to begin with? It's a small detraction but I think a big enough one to put that theory to serious question.
      unless, get this, she doesn't remember!!! and that's why she's all like "Lili..." because it's ringing a bell but doesn't know it's her own name. Maybe she's starting to figure out that sommat ain't right in her brain... of course, that's completely off the tracks theorizing. XD

    On one SBS, Oda make drawings on how the Straw Hats would look into the future if somehow everything went wrong. i believe that Buggy is a bad ending version of himself after his disappointment with Shanks. He went into a deep depresion after a misunderstanding and went from small pirate one after another, never training or Challenging himself for more. He never got to forgive shanks or himself, until now and oh boy i'm so pumped for it.

  • @audichunes
    @audichunes Рік тому +1

    The multifaceted facial gestures of Cobra really seems like he was genuinely surprised that, at the very least his worst fear possible was right in front of him, not that he was absolutely knowing/confident that someone was really controlling everything. Although, his face earlier does get pretty disappointed and somewhat angry when the Gorosei gave a BS answer before asking about D, maybe implying that he does know something big is different than what they're saying. Overall he does give a vibe that he might just be asking questions without a plan, but after thinking we all know that isn't the case. But that misconstrued vibe being given off does lead me also to believe that his multifaceted gesture really did not expect Imu to happen.

    Crocodile might have gooten 1 from either whitebeard or big mom when he was still pirating in the new world. He said whitebeard stopped him so he could have found atleast one.
    Mihawk was probably in wano lets be honest the samurai just gave him the road poneglyph just for him stop beating all the samurai.
    Buggy was in Zou with roger and shanks abd might atleat know about the black ship and the man marked by flames.

    Most western names are pronounced with an "OO" (like Scooby Doo) at the end so characters like Enel, Pappag and IM are challenging as in Japanese they are "Eneru", "Pappagu" and "Imu" which are pronounced so differently sometimes we just change the name to fit the Japanese pronunciation. Viz has gone both ways so it could honestly be either pronounced "Eem" or "Emu". It could even be "I'm" or "Eyemoo" but that's dumb.
