One Piece Manga |OT3| Anything You Can Gum I Can Gum Better

B-Leg: Let me tell the story of a hero...Sanji!

Minutes later

B-Leg: So what you think?

Kid: Daddy he sounds a lameo.

B-Leg:....

But daddy, in Ennies Lobby, what would have happened if Kalifa's key was the correct one, and Nami never fights Kalifa? They would have all died there right? Would it have been sanji's fault?

Blackleg: ...

We a physical family gotta have them voyages and books

...At least One Piece is fairly cheap with its DVD releases.

Hell I got Funimation Now because I did the math and I could keep buying the Voyages or just get a subscription for a few bucks less. One Piece was the only anime I bought for over a decade.

The collections are usually about 25-27 a pop but take much longer voyages are $30 so I just dive in Soon as they come out. Stuff that's not funimation tho...whoooo boy 140 for Your lie in April...part 1

Boy do I know. Amazon had release day sales on a lot of them so I usually paid closer to 22-30, and if you're a few months behind they go into the 15-20 range.

Aside from the spoiler pics, there's also some text out as well:

Translated by @Den_Den_Mushi from Oro

Jinbe: The ones who should cry are the enemies. Don't be disheartened.

Brook: Hey Jinbe, what's with that heartless speech! (Unclear) Out of all of us you knew Pedro the least!

J: I told you not to let yourselves get anxious! We were up against the wall, that's the kind of place this is. I'm prepared to risk my life at all times. This is Pedro's 'victory'!

Pudding: In Chocolatown, the only Chocolate [unclear] was Lola. I thought maybe she would come back someday.
Sanji: Eh... Lola-chan from Thriller Bark was a famous chocolatier huh. That's all well and good but can you come out of there Pudding?
P: Ahahah! Wearing a wedding dress and sitting on a [unclear] with that man, people are gonna think we're like husband and wife aren't they!
C: Who will?
P: It-It'd be troublesome! It'd be troublesome so..!
S: Even so, make sure you don't accidentally fall out of there.
P: Kyaaa! How kind! He reassured my worries just like tha-... Sh-shut up!! Whether I fall out or not is none of your business Sanji!! (unclear)
C: Alright, let's hurry up and make it!
P: -san. <3 :<3:

Fodder: Katakuri's <unclear> is bigger!
Katakuri: Is this really alright?

Jinbe giving me more hope Pedro is actually dead.

Also love how Luffy is fighting in the Mirror World, against a dude that can mirror his own abilities.

If Pedro isn't dead after
Jinbe's speech
I would lose a little bit of respect for Oda. That's a lot of shit to hammer down for a guy that's coming back to life. Then again, Oda did kill off Vergo and Monet, so who knows at this point what could happen.

Compared to literally everyone else who has "died", Pedro is the only one who has been consistently presented with death flags. Everyone else either dies unexpectedly or suddenly, you can ultimately just handwave it as "Classic Oda". But since practically Day 1, Pedro tells us over and over that he gives little fucks about his remaining lifespan, that he's content dying here. Then you have him literally saying that he wants to choose where he dies, with his last words/death seemingly being used to offer
a jumping point to further flesh out Carrot down the road, where he has already "died" through a suicidal explosion once, making it quite redundant to fake us out like that yet again.

His only goal here was to help retrieve both Sanji and the Poneglyphs. That, as well as providing a means of escape for the Straw Hats, suffice as being the "foundation".

Taking all of this into account, if Oda reveals that he is somehow still alive (barring Homie shenanigans), this will easily dwarf Pell's death. Because if you're going to revive a dude that keeps talking about how he's fine with dying, then why even characterize him that way?
