[@demonkitties9672]

Yo straight facts 💯

[@syazwansyah5007]

The real backstory of sanji is always about germa.. sanji with zeff is how sanji develops his character who he is now.

Imagine Nami and Zoro doesn't have a backstoty about their parents yet either

[@tanakisoup]

@deeznut4775 yes, he is. Zeff is a major part of who Sanji is now. Zeff is the reason Sanji is so against hitting women, Zeff is the reason Sanji doesn’t fight with his hands, and Zeff is the reason Sanji hates wasting food. Basically all of Sanji’s defining character traits came from Zeff

[@Blitzwaffen]

​@@nowelltheowl5619No.ome can understand the madness of being alone to your own thoughts with no one else around until they do it themselves. Brook did it for basically 50 years. There's a reason he jokes about himself and laughs so often and it's not just a funny quirk.

What made me cry was what happened afterwords. after she got so close to getting enough to buy Cocoyashi Village from Arlong, it gets stolen. Then when the villagers admitted that they always knew what she was trying to do and set out to face the Arlong Pirate because they knew they would never relequish Nami and Cocoyashi Village even though facing them would mean certain death. Then finally, Nami pleading the villagers to not go to her stabbing the mark on her arm to her finally begging Luffy for help. That made me cry.

[@D.Z.Shafty]

I think Choppers is the saddest. He was treated as a monster his whole life, just like Sanji. He then finally found the one person that didn't care and then Chopper kills him by complete accident. Chopper watches the only person who cared die on the mountain and there was nothing he could do.

[@Uhdksurvhunter]

Its been a minute since i watched his backstory, but the doctor was aware of his "medicine" being poisonous, right? One could argue he killed himself by accepting something he knew was dangerous. Its like someone offering you nuts, and you accept, but you are deadly allergic. I would argue you yourself had more fault in your own death in that scenario, by accepting. Especially if the person offering had no idea (which Chopper did not). Not saying Chopper doesnt feel guilty about it, but "technically" he had almost nothing to do with his death. Plus, he was already dying iirc. He was sick, right?

[@D.Z.Shafty]

@@Uhdksurvhunter The doctor ate it because Chopper literally risked his life for it. Chopper got beaten the absolute goofy out of him so the Doctor ate it to make Chopper feel good about himself, he wanted to make Chopper feel useful. Imagine getting beaten up hard for something useless, that's what Chopper did and the Doctor made him feel better. Plus the Doctor was already going to die so he decided to make Chopper happy in his last moment.

It is a weird coincidence how all 3 monster trio flashbacks were altered in some way by the anime. Luffy’s flashback happens late, as in the manga it was chapter 1. The anime also doesn’t show the scene of Luffy punching the lord of the coast until the end of the ASL flashbacks. Zoro’s flashback is after Syrup Village whereas in the manga it is during Shellstown when he is about to be shot by a firing squad. Sanji’s flashback has Zeff lose his leg trying to save Sanji whereas the manga has him literally smash his leg with a rock until it comes off and he eats it to survive on the rock they land on

[@DevilWearsAdidas]

So what I'm thinking, which is abso-fucking-lutely wild to me about 21:20, is with some pretty serious spoils coming up, so if you dont want them dont scroll about whether or not the stories were set up before or during one piece's conception.... All of the big dreams that they have seem to point into one single direction. It's no secret that a running theory about their dreams is pretty much solved, but in order for that single thing to take place and solve all of their dreams, it starts at the very beginning. Which means, if this one thing that is the running theory of One Piece's end IS TRUE, that means Oda had this all figured out before he wrote episode 1. Think about it, even with the main 5 going to the grand line, they still needed extra crew the whole time, so it only made sense to have those crew thought of prior to writing the show, too right? So planning for their characters had to have happened before the show started. MAYBE by some chance he wrote in some extra characters with the little flexibility available with their stories as to not clash, but I truly think he had a good chunk of the story fleshed out prior to writing. Once again, the spoiler so you've been warned. Destruction of Reverse mountain. This fixes all of their dreams. The biggest one is literally all blue. Fixes all of the weather patterns. Map of the world. Sailing around the world. Laboon. All of it. I'm confident that it's not the one piece, though. I'm confident that the One Piece is still not determined yet in the show and I don't think the one piece has been guessed yet. I think we're still waiting on that, but I am sure whatever it is, it's going to make us all laugh. So far... everyone that's seen it or heard about it laughed. I do not think there are accurate theories of what the one piece is. Which this is vastly different from our big 4, dbz naruto bleach and onepiece. Dbz was 'supposed to end' at frieza and also again at cell. Naruto didn't continue until they knew they had the funding, even after pain ended, the story could have ended there. Any of those big 'finishing' kinds of fights could have been an ending. Bleach could have ended after rukia got saved or after aizen. One piece couldn't have ended anywhere. He still hasn't found the one piece. Zoro didn't become the best yet. This is why I have such a high regard for Oda, he's a master worker.

Brooks backstory makes me cry just thinking bout it

I think backstories allow the reader to get a glimpse of the character's childhood or adolescence, helping him or her to better understand (or even justify) why the character became what he or she is today. This allows the reader to connect with and have empathy for the characters, forming an emotional bond with them. I also love Oda's foreshadowing. 29:14 Yes boys grow up and become stronger than girls as they grow up, it's biology 101. Men generally have longer bones, thus larger anatomical levers, facilitating higher force productions compared to women. Not to mention testosterone production in boys during adolescence stimulates bone formation and allows for a substantial increase in muscle mass. By adulthood, men therefore have greater muscle mass than women.

36:05 in the manga zeff actually eats his leg because he gave all the food to sanji

[@artstream-8676]

When brook was like where is everyone? This has turned into a quartet. Trio. Duet. Solo as he breaks down and dies. 😢i mean bro

[@lamapel]

"Little" difference between manga and anime Zeff. In the Manga he cut his leg of while they were stranded on the island and it's highly possible he ate it.

[@thep1ll0ws]

I dont know if you know this but in the Manga, Zeff actually ate his leg to survive. They changed it for the anime cuz they said it was too dark

[@cutepinkpearlOficial]

16:24 OH!!!

[@skylox40]

Brooks backstory truly is one that will make you cry is so sad

[@gunturhikmawan1584]

Brook litteraly a greatman, alone in the dark sea with his friend's dead bodies for 50 years and still sane is unthinkable, the saddest back story ever in One Piece

[@matalvis]

Depending on where you got it translated, it is split between Zeff not eating anything, or it is implied that he ate his severed leg. Makes more sense to me if he ate it.

[@moonystar2307]

In fact in the manga Zeff eats his leg
