Mexicans aren't anywhere as thin skinned as you gringos think them to be (actually, pretty much nobody is as thin skinned as you...think them to be).

It's not that, I just can't help but facepalm at how ham-fisted it is.  Same goes for the American king being literally Abe Lincoln dressed as Uncle Sam, surrounded by a posse of fat, gun-toting cowboys.  Oda's usually a bit more clever than that when he incorporates cultural stuff into One Piece.

Is anyone else confused as to the timeline of events here?  Last chapter, Sabo was at the Kamabakka kingdom, waiting for the four commanders to show up, and Reverie was two days away.  Now suddenly he's at Mariejois, along with Karasu and Morley, and now Betty's in Kamabakka seeming like she's waiting on him.

Man, you put Rebecca and Shirahoshi in the same room and it really underlines how they are the exact same character, doesn't it?

This chapter had everything I wanted to see in the Reverie: all these old characters coming back into the spotlight, some reuniting and others meeting for the first time.  Dalton and Wapol's confrontation, Luffy's ever-growing princess harem finally meeting up, Sai and Leo meeting back up as "brothers," even seeing Charloss creeping on Shirahoshi.  It's so cool.

Maybe the hat is a redherring and the real treasure lies underneath it?

Maybe the hat is Uranus?

Maybe the hat is the spaceship the people from the moon used to come back to earth?

Luffy's hat is the One Piece.  He was Raftel all along.

The only serious guess I can think of is that the hat in Mariejois isn't the "real" one, whatever that means, and Luffy's is.  Like, they've kept this hat under lock and key for centuries because of whatever power or symbolism it has, but now that Luffy's being built up as the next emperor they're somehow only just now realizing that there's an incredibly strong and influential pirate running around calling himself "Straw Hat."

Remember that flashback of Ace gifting Oars Jr. a straw hat? Ace mentioned he learned about it on Wano. What if the straw hat is somehow related to the poneglyphs?

Maybe that's how Luffy and Roger were able to hear the Voice of All Things?

i don't think the hat has any magical abilities but i guess it symbolizes something significant to the D bloodline.

If the hat has no supernatural properties whatsoever, why bother going to such ridiculous lengths to preserve it in perfect condition?

Something that has symbolic value for your enemies but no practical use is the kind of stuff you destroy when given the chance, you don't keep it stored in a strongroom below zero degrees in your holiest of holy land.

I know this thread is more or less only about the manga, but the anime just caught up with the tea party and...



You went full sentai.  Never go full sentai.

So over the top, such a great animation. I can't believe it's Toei!

Oh wait it's still using the same SFX from DBZ's original run. Yeah, it's Toei.



The maniac grin really makes Yonji look a lot like Crocodile.

Geez, is every single chapter of the Reverie going to end with some insane revelation or cliffhanger.  Damn, Oda.

the five elders maybe.

it was nice seeing charles getting his face smashed again. saving mjosgard didn't turn out to be such a bad move like i initially thought.
although i doubt the fishmen king will ever come to the surface again.
