Petition to rename the title: "Zoro Bloodlines: definitive edition" 👇

[@swaggerb0y69]

Zoro losing his way into becoming a celestial dragon relative

[@ninjachicken8939]

If he watched his father die, he would have recognized Mihawk.

[@JayDPhantomReaper]

I don't remember that scene too well but didn't get recognise Mihawk. I might be tripping so I'll go rewatch it but I could swear Zoro knew who Mihawk was as he specifically got lost looking for Mihawk and had at least a fairly detailed description of him. He could get this from other sources but if he was looking for the world's greatest swordsman he surely knew who that was

[@Theunloved1738]

If anything Zoro only heard his father died after the fact but doesn’t know it’s mihawk, or it genuinely wasn’t mihawk who killed him

[@thusspokethestruggler]

@@Theunloved1738 Or he knows it's him, but actually saw his death as honorable. I don't think Mihawk of the past was some kind of bastard. Rather, a well respected swordsmen who probably held other serious swordsmen to the same level as himself. His little nod of "Magnificent" when Zoro refuses to turn away from him is good proof of this. Furthermore, Mihawk may be the one to not remember Zoro, hence Zoro just keeps it to himself and doesn't go into detail as to why he has to beat Mihawk. Of course, excluding "cause he is the best swordsmen in the world". Would add another layer to the whole rivalry.

[@linussavoulidis951]

a trauma can have the side effects to erase memory, wich is more likely to happened to zorro since he was a child at this point.

[@krisscp9605]

He instantly recognized Mihawk when he rowed up to the Baratie

[@jasonjacksonii1805]

severely underrated channel, keep it up! you always seem to point out such obvious stuff that I never even considered.

[@TheCrapCafe_]

Much appreciated!

[@shaiyantahamtanzadeh6387]

Just an idea, as I have no proof, but there is one more pirate I can think of that matches the main qualities of Zoro's fathers killer. Shanks? He was Mihawks Rival, so being Rival to the world's strongest swordsman puts him at a similar level. And even on introduction, Shanks is a pirate that kills people (though I'm less inclined to believe he would kill innocents). It would be crazy tho if upon reuniting with Shanks, Zoro shocks everyone by recognizing him as the pirate that killed his father in battle.

[@eliaspanayi3465]

Ethanbaron is part of the gorosei, he's considered a god, above the world of lowly people. Zoro will achieve his dream and become the strongest swordsman in the world, and then goes on to the secret final boss, to become the sword god. That way the climactic zoro vs mihawk battle doesnt lose meaning with this relevation

[@kingmanga8575]

1. I don’t think the gorsei r considered gods. Imu for sure but not the gorosei. 2. Nosjuro doesn’t even have a black Blade. There’s 0 chance he’s the secret final boss

[@user-jg2kd4uf3r]

Yep thats what the old headcannon was for most. But with Gorosei coming to Egghead its changed. Garling as secret boss holds greater significance. But I commented elsewhere that Elbaf could have monstrously strong swordmen. ( giant medieval blades with haki)

[@nicknack124]

Mmm mmm MMMM compliments to the chef. He really knows how to cook

[@TheCrapCafe_]

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed!

[@Samuel-p17]

I think the possibility, that Zoro saw the fight of his father is really high, because until he meets Luffy, he has a strong hatred for pirates

[@yuvilatel]

Great job on the video, I loved the theories and how interactive it felt. I would pause occasionally to come to my own conclusion and see if it matches. Also, making use of the scarce information relating to Zoro's backstory and creating so much is impressive. And the scene with Tashigi falling down the stairs makes so much sense as a parallel to Kuina's death. I can't wait for the Gorosei video. Keep up the good work !!

[@TheCrapCafe_]

Venusjuro having decendints makes sense when there are people who think Saturn is Bonnie's biological dad.

[@ZorusSerif]

1 thing with how she died via the stairs multiple people comment on is "she was beating adults at her age in sword combat how did she die by falling down the stairs one piece characters are really strong" Strength doesn't equal durability that's why the term glass cannon exists she was a glass cannon most likely & if you hit your head that suddenly you could crack your skull from the impact of whatever you hit & die of internal bleeding it's baffling how many people disregard these 2 facts when they bring up all kinds of real life information for theories & other thing in one piece but specifically dismiss these 2 things it's very hypocritical & really annoys me cuz it's common sense Also now watching the full video getting impaled by a sword like that or cut deep or whatever happened would most likely leed to death very quickly from blood loss

Watching that picture with young Zoro with 3 swords in each hand and mouth feels like a little fore shadowing of his determination and gives him Asura like when he defeated Kaku. 🤔

[@austincha8006]

keep on cooking up these theories, I really enjoyed your first 2 theories on Kuro and Don Krieg another thing to note is that Bogard would make for a great matchup for zoro as we don't know his power level in swordsman ship and keeps himself hidden in the shadow. theory suggestions that could add more insight to the world of one piece could be on gin and axe hand morgan

I also thought about Shiryu being the actual king of hell. I mean he was the leader of Impel Down and the level of Imple Down are also known as "hells". The building as well as the named "hells" are also reffered to the "hell funnel" in the book "divina comedia" from Dante Aligheri written in 1314. What if Zoro has to defeat Nusjuro to become a sword god, he also has to defeat Mihawk to become the strongest swordsman and he also has to defeat Shiryu to become the true king of hell. As a matter of fact Zoro never said about himself that he is the king of hell, he only said that he has to become the king of hell after his fight against king. Now I have something bigger bringing up Blackbeard, who is Shiryus captain and the owner of the darkness fruit, who also broke into Impel Down like Luffy. In chapter 244 we saw the Vearth statue in Skypia, which is most likely related to heaven and even more interesting is the cover page of the chapter. Its a coverstory from Wapol saying. "I, the great king, run away with tears in my eyes". I couldnt believed when I saw that in chapter 1085 we saw a silhoutte of Imu and it looks like the Vearth statue and at the end of the same chapter we can see Wapol running away from Imu with tears in his eyes. So I believe that Imu is the symbol of heaven while Blackbeard on the other side is the symbol of hell. Now the mother flame got revealed and it looks exactly like the hyroglyph which we could see in the cover story from Enel, who was the god of Skypia which is exactly where the Vearth statue is

I think Zoro's backstory is shoved in before Baratie for the same reason Luffy's is shoved in before Orange Town: They didn't want to keep it where it was in the manga because it disrupted the flow of their episode structure, but the next arc wouldn't make sense if they hadn't told it already.

[@stevenreyes7779]

Love your video especially the part with mihawk killing arashi that makes too much sense to not be true. But I still think tashigi is kuina for 3 reasons: 1. Their personalities/designs are too similar for that to be a coincidence (and oda doesn’t do coincidences) and I’m sure later down the line it’ll turn out her death was faked + memory loss. 2. She actually is the same age as kuina that being 2 years older than zoro. Pre timeskip she was 21 currently she’s 23 3. The birthday discrepancy is most likely a given birthday as usually in stories when a character with amnesia is adopted they’re given a new birthday(that being the day they’re found)

Hey first time watcher here. Everytime I see potential in somebody with a small following I like to give some Feedback to the product. Thats what I like anyways, idk if it´s important for you but anyways, here is a little rating from me: Thumbnail 10/10, good designed and very catchy, practically perfect Title 8/10, its good but there is some more potential Audio Quality 5-6/10, if I was in your position this would be my first point of improvement, my problem with the audio is the room reverb and the EQing. Too many lows, in general you can set a hardcut at 100-200hz, and a De-esser to get more clearness in the highs first so you can boost them after for more crispness in your voice Video Cutting 7-8/10, very clean and smooth animations, only critique is that you use too many slide in/out animations for my taste. I think this could be better done if you wouldnt slide in/out your lyssop character but instead used some pop in animations, but subtle otherwise there is to much movement on screen Video Design 6-7/10, solid and overall nice to look at, I especially like the school board scenery, my biggest critique here would be that the design is not consistent. Sometimes there are subtitles other times not, some Lyssops have different black outlines while the other is on cardboard etc. But for the normal viewer this isn´t something that you would notice right away. Design in general gets shaped by time and the state of mind. Voice/Talking 7-8/10, chill voice and good talking pace, but it sounds like you are holding back a little. Good script too btw Intro 3/10, like wtf dude, your Video is cutted so well but then there is this, pun intended, crappy intro. For real I was genuinly confused at first and thats not good, because its your first impression. I like the general idea of it, but please update this intro 😭 So thanks for the video I hope you will keep going 💪

Kuina wanted to be the best swordsman so much that she made the Hito Hito, model lady swordsman, and tashigi ate it. That’s why kuina “died”, her souls got pulled into the fruit.

[@JoaoPereira-qk2yu]

Although I like the Mihawk killed Zoro's father theory, it doesn't make sense as it would've already been a reason to make him want to be the best. The Kuina flashback makes him want to be the best through a motive bigger than revenge, to carry his friend's will and make her achieve her dream through him, with her sword representing her. Her storyline makes Zoro never achieve his chilhood goal: to actually be better than her

[@mathieuleader8601]

I think Bentham Mr. 2 Bentham could have come from Oykot Kingdom as in an early draft he was dressed as a shinobi themed agent named Mr. Happy Birthday.

[@manishdhar3232]

not bad. actually in a SBS of meahwk. oda sensei stated that "mehawk was already famous before the grate pirate era began" - means he was already made a name worldwide before roger's execution. although we see him during roger's execution. we don't see if his blade is black already. of course he is already stoic and expression less like he knew roger would die. which indicates to his vivre card details - mehawk being a clairvoyant.

[@sarahdean3945]

Tbh if it is Mihawk it still could be pirateS. Apparently Mihawk was part of a crew in the past and then he was "betrayed" in some mysterious way. Which is why he always worked alone until Zoro & Perona landed near his castle and he helped create Cross Guild. Maybe the betrayal was that hos crewmates interfered in his dual with Arashi and struck the final blow. Costing Mihawk his honor and pride as a swordsman.

[@tatsudragneel4761]

Ryumas time was definitely after the void century not before. I've seen people say the magazine said 400 years ago, but idk the validity of that source. However we do know it was sometimes after because he's directly connected to modern Wano, he was said to have slain a dragon over the Flower Capital and his body and sword were buried in Ringo, two places that wouldn't have existed before they moved to the top of the mountain because of old Wano flooding.

[@davirochaaulasonline8224]

Talking about Shimotsuki's secrets, do you think that Zoro learned or develop his secret technique Sanzen Sekai from his father? It looks like this technique reminded Mihawk of something. And it really looks like the sun symbols from Wano, Alabasta and Kuma's church

[@TheCrapCafe_]

Great observation! I assumed this was just the moment Mihawk connected the two together, but if he saw a similar looking man using the same technique then it makes a lot of sense that he would have had a moment of realization at that exact moment!

[@kambur11]

When zoro said it was his first time using a sword he was referring to a real sword. Prior he had only used practice swords

I really like your theorys. I find them refreshing since most feel kinda forced since a lot of ytbers must come up with a new one weekly. Anyway, this one in particular is the most interesting so far, although, i think Mihawk being Zoro's father killer doesn't quite add up. At least not with what we currently know. I mean, I don't see why would Mihawk kill Zoro's father but not him. Clearly Mihawk is interested in Zoro's potential but why wouldn't be the same for his father? I can imagine Mihawk leaving him alive just to fight him another day.

[@TheCrapCafe_]

I think the difference is that mihawk was on a journey to become the greatest Swordsman when he killed Arashi. Now that he's at the top, and Shanks lost his arm, there's no one left to challenge him. And like Saitama he seemingly wanders around looking for a fun fight. If he finally found another rival with some potential, killing him is the last thing he'd want to do.

[@EresirThe1st]

This is fire, and it may even be true in the background but I feel like if it were going to happen in the series we would have got some proper setup for it in Wano. Oda said he wanted to reveal Zoro’s family in Wano but it became an afterthought in an SBS - not really what you’d do for a final showdown for a main character. Additionally I think Mihawk is definitely stronger than V. Nusjuro as the gorosei have been getting clapped by Luffy and Mihawk has a higher bounty than Luffy. He doesn’t have to be an anticlimax either, remember that Buggy is also going after the One Piece. Of course it’s possible the information will be revealed later. There are still plenty of leftover threads from Wano.

[@sebastien-loikntsangou-kan5264]

I think the reason why we didn't get the "proper set up" in Wano is because it's quite clear, from the story structure of that arc and certain SBS statements when the arc was releasing, that Wano's ending was very rushed. Because of that numerous things were probably left on the cutting room floor, as evident by Zoro's family tree being in an SBS and the various dangling plot threads strangely left unresolved. Despite this, I believe Oda still managed to include proper set up in Wano such as Ushimaru, Zoro's resemblance to Ryuma being noted, etc. I believe there will still be opportunities to explore Zoro's past later on, although probably not to the extent we would've gotten in Wano.

[@EresirThe1st]

Yeah it was definitely rushed, but I feel like it could’ve got done in one chapter when Zoro was first getting Enma. We know Zoro wanted to visit Ryuma’s grave. You could easily have a conversation with Sukiyaki and Onimaru together with Zoro. They ask him about his resemblance to the Shimotsuki clan and he says that’s the name of his village.

[@rathirat7418]

i think its also interesting to see how zoro kuina kinda parallel luffy ace relationship with the death and why is zoro havent seen luffy in G5 and why did gorosei gandhi have to do throwaway line ohhh ryuma is here..i feel like there is something interesting with zoro luffy and sanji at play here, and also all the major character we have known from wano kimda embody this theme of sacrificing themself for a cause or someone including zoro and momo as well..i think there is deeper implication for their sacrifice and void century, even alabasta with king cobra have the same theme playing out. as much as oda hates killing ppl he killed some ppl to show how their sacrifice is what made it possible for luffy to tap into G5...luffy meeting zoro for first time bro ate the onigiri that was dropped on the floor, momo refused to eat during the time they met, that guy in prison gave up his food for yamato...food seems to be major theme here...yamato who starved in getting a fruit to protect wano is very interesting as well..the theme of starvation and food is kinda prominent with these ppl

i had never made the ethan/koushirou connection before, they look identical, that's kinda wild

[@turnpikefoolio3302]

14:45 bone rattling theory

[@timbrwolf1121]

Before I watch I've been on the kuina is tashigi train for years. Tashigi means "the common snipe" in Japanese. A snipe hunt is something that would have been introduced to the Japanese by American soldiers. Especially when you consider how many Japanese would be ignorant to the joke at the time. Tashigi is a giant snipe hunt and is actually kuina. In fact oda may get the world record for longest snipe hunt.

[@timbrwolf1121]

Tashigi does not actually need glasses. I don't know about pirate warriors as evidence, but literally every time tashigi fights. Her glasses are not on her eyes. She just has them on her nose or head. Every single time.
