My Teacher Mom Reads One Piece (First Manga): Chapters 69-100

[@lixogram]

Someone stop Mom, she is about to find the One Piece before Luffy. I was able to catch a few moments from the live, and she is a blessing to this community. Thanks for the time, work and dedication both of you are putting into it

^ 100% this, yes. I love this series, time absolutely flies by when watching these videos. It's a great format and I love all the "over analyzing"; it is the best "new reader experience" in One Piece on KZbin and I came here from an English professor's takes on One Piece as a first time reader. Not trying to put the English professor down, but Drawk's mom is my favorite "analyst" / first time reader now. 🙂

I love how she always says Red Haired Shanks. Like yes, address him by his full title, please.

[@robbybevard8034]

@@CantusTropus The events of Wano make it super duper clear that timing is everything... but before that in almost every arc Luffy arrives at a place *the day* bad things are going down. If he'd set out even a day later he doesn't save Coby, he never meets Nami. Maybe he meets Zoro still. If he'd gotten to Syrup village a day later, Usopp and Kaya would be dead. If he got to Baratie a day later? Krieg does a lot of harm before Mihawk arrives. And later in the series, how many villains are launching their plan that day? Or various things he catches or dodges super narrowly? (Being vauge to avoid spoilers) Timing is always important.

[@TEG13]

Btw about Nezumi. It can be read as an amalgamation of "Nezu" and "Umi," meaning mouse and ocean, respectively, but the word Nezumi itself means "Rat," which he definitely is.

[@nervosuu]

[@Hawkcam1996]

So I guess she failed to hate the Arlong arc. It was so good, it even made her like Usopp.

[@sayianman1361]

Its crazy but I think Merphy has competition for the best One Piece read through one KZbin. The thing that makes both of them some great is the fact that we get a unique and uncommon perspective on the series from people who are well immersed in the literary world and the observations your mom makes are so eye opening

[@thedrawkshow]

Hearing her talk I feel the same way, and I'm thrilled to be facilitating a read through that rivals my absolute favourite until now.

+1 on Aleczandxr, he's great at picking up on themes and little character moments that are absolutely integral. His videos are very succinct and analytic and his streams are always a blast. Loved Merphy's videos going through the series as well though, I think now with Mama Drawk they're the three most compelling blind read-throughs on here I've found, by quite a lot.

[@choppermanpl3835]

Better than Murphy IMO, there were too many empty exclamations there about how amazing/great/wonderful one piece is, which I already know duh. And a lot of just straight up telling us what happened. Mom on the other hand keeps dropping mindblowing clever and original interpretations one after another.

[@realexiscastro7213]

Your mom's experience with literature is showing - both in how she takes the intentionality Oda does seriously, because I imagine she's been trained to view art as intentional and not random so what takes a lot of manga readers time to take seriously and dismiss as " reading too much into " is exactly what someone with a lit background would do and the reward is there. It's gonna be nuts when and if she catches some of the stuff later that's been foreshadowed even now, so early on. Small note - that same literature mind is funny to see because what tropes manga and comic readers are used to that are subverted by Oda, she's also going to experience, some of her predictions are so interesting because knowing where they go we obviously know what is and isn't accurate, BUt the predictions come from a place that makes total sense using the literature framework. Even her discussing the warlords as being elemental ties into the genre fiction trope of big bads being deity like and those deity pieces are often elemental. Excited to see where your mom goes with this - also, selfishly and probably naturally as the arcs get longer I'd love to see her dedicated to just those arcs in the discussions cause the depth that gets added and the layers and foreshadowing and fulfillment obviously only goes deeper

[@CalmDubs]

Plus she's 100% spot on about the warlords except for you know who. Think about. She even got a person that was offered a spot but turned it down

[@AshlynnSmells]

Awe love you guys :) This is my mom and brother and I am so proud of them both! thank you to everyone being so kind to them

[@WARA_19]

Do you read one piece too?

[@doronrosstuvia3489]

A lot of theorists get lost in the moment because once you’re week to week everything is really slowed down. Perspective of the greater series tends to be lost. That’s why I love to hear people catch up because those people tend to have a greater view of the overall story. Part of it is also that there are too many of them that have been fans of shonen and anime so they try to connect One Piece to tropes of over series. One of the reasons I love to hear from booktubers or people that don’t know manga or anime very well is that they can see the series without bias and understand the themes or storytelling techniques that Oda uses others might not see. I’ve been loving this series so far, but I’m super excited to see how into the lore your mom is. I can imagine these reviews will only get better.

[@doronrosstuvia3489]

I also want to add that you’re a great host in this Drawk

[@Soress9]

Im like 3 minutes in and shes already understanding timing where we are knowing the importance of timing. God damn I cant wait to see her get caught up

[@darraghtalorgan1905]

I'd like to add a bit about Bellemere and her choice of death. There's been criticism that it's promoting a sense of noble suicide but there's more to it than that. Being an ex-marine who knows war, she understood very well the type of character that Arlong was. He was an occupying warlord, this wasn't a random gang; they were ststematic and got a hold of census records to know who everyone was. She also knew that they would need an example in order to prove why they needed to be feared. Then there's the life issues; Bellemere had her arm broken. She would need money for medical expenses and money was a struggle for her. On top of that she would need to get large amounts of money together regularly and reliably in order to buy their lives every month, which isn't something she could realistically do. She couldn't escape and she could expect anyone else to either because they're fishmen and they live on an island; they have naval supremacy. There's no escape, fighting failed and no way for her to get the money together; sure Nami and Nojiko weren't known by the fishmen yet but it would only be a matter of time. Given her position and her training she was the logical choice which she had the bravery and compassion to take. Her death prevented Cocoyashi village becoming what Goza did later on. About the snails, believe it or not it's actually based on a real thing that was investigated. There was a belief that snails who mated made psychic links and if you wiggled one the mate would also wiggle regardless of distance. There were even plans devised to create telecommunication systems from this (more morse code than phone call). Oda's a massive history buff and he takes inspiration from everywhere. I think the trope is less that they're seen as attractive because they were beaten but more because they have proved without doubt their competency in a sea of potentials like buggy's crew or random civilians. It makes an amount of sense; luffy gained her respect and showed that he has the qualities that give him results.

[@fizzyb0mb]

Haha your mom is gonna love Usopp's development. I know a lot of people hate him but he's such a well rounded character when you look at him from the point of view of "yeah, he's a normalass dude in a world full of freaks". He's a smart coward with a steel resolve when it counts. My fave moments with him are always him knowing he's weaker, and worrying he's useless, but he still tries anyways. (even with Wano and things are horribly on fire and he shoots a watering plant to try and put the flames out, but it just catches on fire and he just yells I HAD TO TRY SOMETHING! even though he knew it wouldn't do anything. he still tries!)

[@bonesmusic2751]

Next read though you should point out as a fun fact, that historically sailor and pirates often became sick because of scurvy (lack of vitamin C) and nami has her tangerines on the ship so the crew will never suffer from scurvy. I always thought that was an amazing little detail oda put in.

[@Iranex1]

The thing I love most about luffys fights is that he never outright kills his opponents. He instead makes SURE that he manages to absolutely crush their dreams. He uses his emotional intelligence to find out how to maximally harm them. Luffys fights are always clashes of ideals, not just about the actual fighting. And just because I'm on the theme, zoros fights are always raw tests of skill and mettle and technique, sanjis are tests of resolve usually in the face of some sort of major setback or trickery, usopps are tests of courage and trickery, and Namis are a bit harder to pin down but she usually serves as a moral glue to the crew and incorporates themes of trickery and resolve but there is also sometimes a theme of protecting others through her victory. Nami and sanji and usopp also usually have "fights" that don't involve violence but rather morals/ideals/arguments

[@yannsalmon2988]

For information, the name of Nami’s adoptive mother comes from our French word for saying « mother in law » : Belle-mère. Literally translated into English, it means « beautiful mother ». The same goes for a father in law : beau-père (beautiful father) or brother and sister in law : beau-frère and belle-sœur (like Nojiko). Normally we use it to qualify the family of the person you or one of your parents married, someone to which you are related by law but not by blood. So it’s very befitting in Nami’s story case of an adoptive mother. In France Nami’s mother’s name in OP is written « Belmer » but the prononciation stays the same as the original word Belle-mère : Belle is pronounced like the English « bell » word (final « e » is silent), and for mère the « è » sound is exactly the same as the « e » in « bell », with an hard « r » and once again a silent final « e » (or like the word « bear » starting with a « m » instead of « b »). Also, I don’t know if Oda knew that but in French the words « mère »(mother) and « mer »(the sea) sound exactly the same. So Belmer could also be interpreted as « beautiful sea », which is also befitting for a former marine soldier.

For the weather thing, I never really liked that theory, (though considering his name is dragon, it kinda works thematically) Iirc nami asks for bags because she senses a storm coming well before that (might be the anime? not sure) but for the lightning, Buggy lifted a giant lightning rod to the sky while on top of the ONLY structure in the plaza. It's not as unlikely as everyone makes it out to be.

These videos are so good. Looking forward to the rest of the arcs. I do wish you talked a bit about Arlong's one good quality, which is that he is VERY protective with his own people. When Zoro beat his crewmates Arlong was visibly worried about them. And the fact that he tends to get EXTREMELY mad at humans out of nowhere that even his crew have to hold him back. All the bad stuff Arlong did serves to make you think that's all he is, but him caring about his crew and being visibly worried when they get hurt is something that really stands out for his character. Makes you stop a a bit and re-read to make sure what you just saw was real. Would love to know what your mom thinks of this aspect of Arlong, especially since we know it will be important in the near future.

The thing with the pinwheel and the grave is that it's something that made Nami laugh as a child, so I agree with the idea that it's a reminder of simpler times. Nami putting both the pinwheel and the tangerine on her as a tattoo is basically a way to show how she thinks of both as their parental figures. But I never thought about why Genzo would leave the pinwheel at the grave, apart from showing him moving on with his life knowing that Nami was safe now. Perhaps it's also a way to make the grave more peaceful.

Mom piece!!! I am so happy you’re enjoying the story! I cannot wait to hear you discuss more themes of the arcs in depth. That’s one of my favorite things about this series.

This is great, the analysis is insane and some insights I've never thought about while reading this series. I love how every new reader always goes crazy over the predictions/theories. Excited to see more and love the artwork too!

I'm so invested in this series already! Please keep posting it to youtube

The thing about Usopp is that I never expected him to "stop" being Usopp. Since his dream is to become a brave warrior of the sea, obviously he's not gonna acheive his dream before the rest do. He's gonna stay cowardly and afraid until we reach the end and everyone achieves their dreams.

Firstly, cherish your mom. She’s so awesome. The delight in her voice as she talks about One Piece brings me so much joy. I appreciate how the diverse individuals who have joined the crew mirror the dynamic of the manga. Gradually, Oda is crafting this world to align more closely with his vision. Usopp making the list is what I was waiting for. I cant wait till she gets to Skypiea. I wonder if she catches anything that everyone else has missed.

I watched one piece as a kid went up to Marineford then stopped completely when I was 11 I think? Thx to this series I've picked up the manga and started reading! And I'm precisely where your mom is x) Thx for making me want to catch on with the show :)

Okay, so my prediction is that Ussop is going to climb the coolness ladder. He's not always front and center, but he's there, slowly moving towards what he is now. If you know you know. Also, i love the warlord predictions. They're so.... Interesting.
