One Piece Episode 963, 964, 965, 966 Reaction - Roger, Whitebeard & Oden

[@TheHeroClass]

Seeing how Rogers relationship with Rayleigh and Scopper Gaban mirrors our Monster Trio is an image I can never get out of my head.

[@eskreskao]

I mean, Ray and Gaban don't seem like they're at each other throats 24/7, but I guess I see what you're getting at.

[@wheresprototype3507]

I feel like that has to be on purpose to show how alike luffy and rodger and even the other crew members are. Which I honestly appreciated

Honestly the best foreshadow was Oda putting izu and octopus head in the paramount war. I couldn't believe Izu was there and had to rewatch it.

[@jansettler4828]

Bro you the only one who didn't see it.

[@offthewall2017]

Momo being a time traveler was actually a pretty common theory after Zou as I recall. Though people thought the samurai group had been time hopping constantly since the void century, and when the crew actually got to wano we would find out that it was more like modern Japan with no samurai.

[@red-hairedshanks8369]

The thing that one piece did throughout the years is the great usage of characters. They didn’t use old characters to show how strong the new characters are, instead the used the new characters to reinforce how strong the old characters actually were. And the Oden flashback is the epitome of that concept.

[@IraserH]

True. Something Boruto ruined

[@fbngrrdg]

The pirate who fights Oden when he meets Toki was part of the Whitebeard's Fleed in the Paramount War. I love how Oda includes this little details in the story.

[@jewelabyss]

Wow the conqueror'a haki clashes were so fire and intense🔥 Whitebeard and Oden Whitebeard and Roger

[@tembakaugunung6139]

You probably miss it since the anime couldnt make the detail, but 3 years younger Roger, when they showed him after Oden joined WB, was look very much like Ace just older with mustache. But When he meet Oden, his face was so rapidly aging coz his illness was taking over him by a lot.

[@ryvnhaust5250]

I think we all need to remember that before Roger...there was no King of the Pirates. Titles and nicknames are social constructs (in reality and fiction) , and it is the people after Roger died that gave him the title of King of the Pirates. So what he said to Oden and Whitebeard was something completely different. And Shanks said that a boy from East Blue said the same thing Roger said. The boy being Luffy. Also, there was a scene where Luffy told Sabo and Ace his "dream", but they were flabbergasted to say the least. The scene where Luffy said his "true dream" to his crew hasn't been animated so I'll leave this here for future stuff

[@manuelagius8875]

That Octopus guy who attacked Oden, indeed joined whitebeard crew after this point. just check him up in the War of the Best. He is within Whitebeards' naval crew. 1 of the captains under Whitebeard.

Well, rather than saying "Oda did it" let's recognize that the anime producers at Toei are the ones working the sound and visual cues we don't get to experience in manga. Maybe Oda gives input, but I believe he is way to busy on manga, and other projects to actually manage every single detail on anything but the Manga.

I have been waiting over a year to see you react to Roger vs Whitebeard. I should´ve guessed you would be overwhelmed, but I didnt expect you to just stare at it all in awe. Forgive me but I laughed my ass of at your dumbfounded face :D Im delighted to see you enjoy this all so much.

[@dannybob42]

Prime Whitebeard is of course something else, you can see why the navy flipped out so far with just a dying one in Marineford. Oden was strong but not strong enough to beat him, still though he remained determined, and after saving his future wife he gained a position on the ship as Second Division Commander - Ace's future position - sailing with Inu, Neko and Izou. However, in his journeys, Wano worsens under the poison of the Kurozumi. Orochi's family was hunted for attempting to assassinate the Daimyos so they would be next in line, but when discovered they are hunted. Egged on my fellow Kurozumi, the lady having Bon Clay's devil fruit, Orochi is empowered with the new fruit and slowly rises via deception and stealing money, until getting to the position of Shogun. Oden's first taste of adventure is fruitful, but things are even more pivotal come Roger's appearance. The first attack we see of the future pirate king can easily brush Oden away, and then there is the Clash of Kings: an incredible clash where neither blade is even touching one another. After the fighting, the three chat much like Luffy and his brothers did, and after hearing Roger's dream, Oden begs Whitebeard to let him join Roger on his final voyage.

[@TuskyBaby]

I personally feel like this backstory is the peak of Wano and what a peak it is. Its so fun seeing Oden win everyone over just by being the menace he is.

[@anggitbagas1215]

[@JefflezZz]

[@nanach6276]

Blackbeard never sleeps is a reference to what Sanji said when fighting the Lapins at Drum Island around episode 80. He said people in cold countries never sleep. He was just having conversation with Luffy. Also it was at Drum we heard about Blackbeard for the first time. He was probably born at one of the poles, which means atop of the Red Line

[@OfficialTigerino]

I'm pretty sure it's not a reference to that specifically lol. The cold people no sleep thing was a gag based on the "survival hack" that sleeping when you're in cold mountains should be avoided at all costs as it will cause hypothermia (is this a saying only in Japan? I've never heard of ppl talk about this outside of Japan).

[@Peksisarvinen]

@@OfficialTigerino It absolute is a direct reference to specifically that, mark my words. It's such an Oda thing to do. Blackbeard literally has never slept in his life, was born in a cold country (literally or figuratively), and the reason for that is going to be a huge part of his backstory. Lock it in.

[@kirbyhm]

I think it's the wave in Roger's hair that makes him look more like Ace here. Since I don't remember seeing that in the other flashbacks.

[@shadowmahesh9876]

King of the pirates was a title created for roger, It never existed before that nor did roger think of being one.

[@HeraclesN-fp1bw]

Whitebeard’s (age 44 - 46 & was voiced by Kinryu Arimoto now by Ryuzaburo Otomo / R. Bruce Elliott) crew at this time was Vista (age 17 - 19 & the 5th Division Commander), Rakuyo (the 7th Division Commander), Blenheim (the 9th Division Commander), Curiel (the 10th Division Commander), Kingdew (the 11th Division Commander), Atmos (the 13th Division Commander), Fossa (the 15th Division Commander), Oden (age 29 - 31 & the 2nd Division Commander), Izo (age 15 - 17 & the 16th Division Commander), the one who became their own captain are Whitey Bay, Epoida, Andre, Kinga, Islewan, then the apprentices were Marco (age 15 -17, & becomes the 1st Division Commander / 2nd in command / doctor) & Jozu (age 12 - 14 & the 3rd Division commander), & last is Teach (age 12)

[@sergo1695]

29:27 every crew member of Whitebeard pirates were considered and called as sons by Whitebeard, all except of Oden( he was more of a brother to Whitebeard))

[@urtoryu_dy_althraidn]

I really like how Oden is the only one on Whitebeard's crew who he sees as a brother, rather than a son.

[@hackroots02]

Bartolomeo and Bon Clay previous fruits owners. I like that Newgate looked Oden as his little brother and concerned for the safety of his family after he joined Roger's crew.

[@tobigomez3069]

Ruff, i guess someone in patreon or similar did tell this to you, but remember that OST called "Gold and Oden"? That is one of the most oldest soundtracks maded for One Piece, is foreshadowing as his peak, and i heard Oda himself ask to Toei to put that name in that OST, and if that is the case, it makes Wano one of the Arcs that Oda Planned since the beggining.

[@ProbablyRay]

When I caught up with One Piece it was like a few episodes before this backstory and I had to painfully wait week to week to see the backstory

[@KevKrieger32]

So many conqueror's haki clash to defend or just to flex, but Roger and Whitebeard use conqueror's haki to greet each other xD

[@friend_.]

Before anyone says it, I'm gonna clear the misunderstanding. Roger isn't even sick here. Just for your info. Roger got sick at 49+. And this Roger here is nearly 50. Plus in the vivre card it's said that his sickness only affected his lifespan. (IDK about this one) And the scenes of him coughing are literally complete filler if you didn't know. And crocus said that Roger's sickness doesn't affect his strength. And that he's good to go as hell. And Whitebeard said you look great Roger meaning Roger was same as ever.

[@ollypa7062]

20:27 Why did Ruff skip the part were she turn into Shiki the Golden Lion?

[@Crescentknight8189]

The battle between Roger and Whitebeard highlights that if Whitebeard had been 100% during the Marineford War, he would have easily destroyed anyone outside of Garp.

[@wolfzend5964]

Something really neat here is Whitebeard had Oden lead the second division on his ship. Years later when Ace was given the same position, Teach said that Oden's former position was vacant for a long time. Ace succeeds Oden as the second commander. Which is ironic since it was Roger who took Oden in the first place. That being said, you have to give it to Oden. He sees Whitebeard, attacks him, and then demands to join his crew mid-battle. That was Luffy-levels of determination right there.

[@billymaae808]

If someone didn't already point it out, Oden is the only member of the Whitebeard Pirates that was a brother and not a son

[@RatXdd]

One of the best flashback in all of anime

[@allisterbrinley]

Oden is just like the monster trio in one body Luffy for his sense of adventure and foof Zoro for his swordsmanship and bloodlust Sanji his soft spot for woman and good at cooking.

[@kirojiro23]

I wonder what's on Oden's mind when he named his son Momonusuke. Coz Momo literally means Peach. The peach color can be described as a light orange-pink. The Momonusuke the Pink Dragon 👀 Well of course Oda named him.

[@ShadowMage3D]

15:20 -- Ruff be asking the pertinent questions. But if you wonder about Oden and Toki, think about Big Mom. A man could get lost in that. But One Piece has a LOT of pairings like that. 27:18 -- Sort of like a Davy Back fight, except there was no clear winner. * I'd like to see Luffy will challenge Shanks to a Davy Back Fight. That would be awesome.

[@treebranches2539]

Each time I watch RuffSenpai wonders the idea of the Poneglyphs originating from the Land of Wano, I always remember in Zou, we've learned that Oden's family line had created the Poneglyphs in the first place.

[@marcosreynoso3901]

It sounded very unrealistic and crazy when back in Zou, Momonosuke said he had met Roger but It made more sense after learning he came from the past and he was born and raised in the sea. Oda, genius, thinking about everything.

On my first watch through It struck me as weird that Whitebeard called Oden his brother, whereas he calls everyone else his son. But it makes sense now why he let Oden run a muck and be a menace on his ship. He said earlier that Oden wouldn't be a good follower, and Oden didn't even finish his task to become a crew member, but Whitebeard let Oden on the ship, let him keep his friends, let his start and raise a whole family on his ship, because Oden was never a crew member, he was a little brother that made WB's life more interesting.

Height and size in One Piece is both real and not real. They interchangeably both refer to overwhelming presence and intimidating factors along with their real height and size (which may be smaller).
