One Piece Chapter 1000! Discussion!!!

 

 One Piece is a massive manga series created by the famous talented mangaka Eiichiro Oda. It has managed to keep going for 20 years and while it appears to be in it's final arcs, the series still has a couple of years left for it till its finale. 

 


 One Piece hit it's 1000th chapter mark this week albeit unofficially because it's slated for an official release of January, 2021. With that being said, if you're an anime only or simply do not want to know anything till the official release comes out, you can stop reading now because, I will be discussing the whole chapter and what my thoughts are for the future going on from here. The 1000th chapter is deservingly named "Strawhat Luffy" I like that it's called this for obvious reasons such as Luffy being the main character of the whole thing and getting to see him now compared to where he was when he set out for the sea two years ago (well, 20 years in our time). 

 

 Resuming immediately from where we left off in Chapter 999, Luffy is still trying to get to the top floor to fight Kaido who is now with Big Mom and has been able to neutralize all of Kozuki Oden's retainers including Kinemon. As Luffy gets closer, he sees some of the Minks lead by Shishilian who have helped him clear his path and he thanks them for protecting Raizo back on Zou from Jack and the beast pirates, and then proceeds to go and face off Kaido. We see Marco successfully fending off against Queen and King and then he springboards Zoro to the top floor as well where the main action is going place. 


 We also get a cutback to Yamato discussing with Momonosuke and Shinobu where she hints at ".D" and continues telling him about Ace and his Momo's father Oden. Oden in his journal had predicted that powerful pirates in twenty years time would come and save wano from the captivity of Kaido and the beast pirates. We see another flashback of Ace and Yamato where he tells Yamato about Luffy's dream and asks that he doesn't laugh at it even though him and Sabo initially did. I loved hearing that because its cool to see Ace acknowledge Sabo  even though he thought he was dead at the time. Yamato tells Ace that a notable figure (who I believe to be Roger) shared the same dream, adding that Luffy would probably have been his friend. Ace says he'd like to have a drink with this man and Yamato tells Ace he's already dead.


While Yamato talked about Oden prediction of strong pirates coming in 20 years, we see an ensemble shot of Supernovas Luffy, Zoro, Law, Kidd and Killer all ready to face off the larger than life emperors Kaido and Big Mom. Luffy disrespectfully passes Big Mom and Kaido, ignoring them to go and meet a severely injured Kinemon, he apologizes for coming late, Kinemon beats himself up saying he's not worthy to even die after failing his master Oden, we see a shot of all the other retainers beaten and injured as well. Kinemon begs Luffy to save wano and Luffy passionately  reassures him that he will because this is his friend's country. Luffy calls on Law to use his devil fruit powers to remove all the retainers from the battlefield in order to ensure their safety.


Kaido and Big Mom are angry after they had a discussion where Kaido talks about how Luffy disrespectfully made his claim to be pirate king, Kaido asks him to repeat his statement and we get an amazing shot of Luffy's  as he uses gear third to launch a new fiery attack probably infused with ryou called "Red Rock" (which might be an homage to Ace's Red Hawk which we saw an earlier iteration of in wano against beast pirate Holdem) and levels Kaido to the floor. This shocks Big Mom who asks Kaido how he'd let himself be taken down so easily by the Straw hat. The chapter ends with Luffy restating his ambition to become the Pirate King!



I think the next couple of chapters will just contain action packed panels shifting from the battle on the top floor or the one with the other straw hats and the flying six. I also think we might get to know about the will of d or at lease get some new information from it. I also believe a pivotal character has to die before Wano ends and that Yamato will be probably become the eleventh official member of the straw hat pirates.

  1. Actually, it's Red "Roc". Roc is translated to be a strong mythical bird BUT yes, it's still similar to Ace's move.

First Listen: Lil Yachty - Let's Start Here.

 woah. brother broccoli starts 2023 with something totally unexpected: a psychedelic rock album. lil yachty said in an interview (with someone i don't remember) that he just wants to be taken seriously, as a musician. it's a little sad when someone puts their all into a craft, sometimes even create a groundbreaking sound, but still get termed the bare minimum or worse, "mumble rapper." while this album is beautiful, it's not as stellar as other projects in the same genre. but music is more than that. it's also the process, emotions, message, etc. brother broccoli took a risk to make what he wants/feels and he succeeded. that's what makes this album a beauty asides the wonky ai art and trying-hard-to-stay-in-the-flow lyricism . the features ate. the producers brought their a-game. the engineers blessed the record. since poland, it's clear that yachty decided to broaden his scope and make not just music he loves, but quality. i definitely respect his art...

STRANGER THINGS 2

   A lot of movies and shows are set in the past these days but in my own opinion, none of them really do it like STRANGER THINGS. If you remove the acting,the amazing plot,and chemistry, what you're left with is these show that has a very '80s feel because of the overall sound from the show and visuals.      Season 2 is a blast and it simply perfected the formula season 1 set which is, simple plot,great characters,good chemistry and amazing(classic)music. My face everytime Dustin jokes       The Season starts a year after and all our characters are basically trying to settle on after the ending of the first season. Mike's still trying to communicate with Eleven, Will is bullied in school, he's called "zombie boy", Lucas is well still Lucas and Dustin has teeth now,"Prrrr"(you'll get the joke soon enough)       I'll try not to be very spoiler-y so let's start up!!!. •MAX AND BILLY     The dick The new...

WESTWORLD: A NEW WORLD

 Do you like westerns(cowboy films) ? Are you a sci-fi fan?  Do you like the Nolan Brothers(Christopher and Jonathan)  who have brought you collaborative projects like Inception and Interstellar?  Well if you do like all those things, keep reading and if you don't, keep reading... There's a point to this.  Westworld, is a sci-fi, western television series that tackles the question created by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, Westworld is a very ambitious show that tackles the questions, "what does it mean to be conscious"? and "what it means to be truly human". In the future, there's a super realistic western park created by a man named Ford and his dead partner Arnold. They created life like being called hosts and gave them roles to play in a western world.  Real human beings come to the park and are given the opportunity to dive into the madness and realness of the place. They can do whatever they want to in the park and that is just a fraction...
