The original kuma isn't dead

Moria needs a corpse unless he has an awaken ability that can

I thought he gave up the last of his humanity for the PX thing and that would count. Or maybe he's just gonna be 100% robot.

You guys ever wonder how a family with an anglo-saxon sounding surname like Vinsmoke end up with japanese numbers for their children's first names?

Outside of their surname, the Vinsmokes don't seem very anglo-saxon to me.

I always thought that the One Piece world speaks English, but Japanese was a literary language. It's mostly the fancy organizations like the Marines that use Japanese a lot.

plus anime naming, yeah

I wonder if "Reiju" being numbered with a zero was a joke about computers numbering from zero.

Just assume everyone can speak and read English and Japanese.
But characters will use real-world languages that don't exist anywhere in the OP world just for Rule of Cool.

Sanji knows the French language and Robin knows both Spanish and French.
Baron Tamago ends his sentences with random French terms lol.

The head dude's name is "Judge" officially, right? That's an english word/name.

Even if we consider it to be Jujji though, that just reverses the question. Why does a japanese family have the surname Vinsmoke?

Not to mention Germa sounds more Anglo-saxon than japanese.

Think he still part human just that he lost his ability to think on his own.

Kuma probably has some human fragments to maintain his devil fruit, at most.

Maybe it's the Gatchaman-like outfits that are throwing me off.

It's Jajji if I remember. Don't have access to raws.

No necessarily. I doubt a gun and a sword had human parts in them, and they could maintain devil fruits.

I'm mostly assuming that Vegapunk didn't transfer the Devil Fruit from his human self to his machine self, and it'd be creepier if he still had human parts.

How do fishmen vocalize speech underwater? There's no bubbles out of their mouths when they talk, so they don't use air....

Here's your answer:

The 'it's reality, can't do anything about it' argument is always bullshit in the context of any fiction, but it's never been more bullshit than when applied to one piece. The number of ways that OP deviates from what would 'realistically' happen is so laughably monumental that it would be farcical to list them all.

[SolVanderlyn]

Vinsmokes are nothing but French with that wine focused surname and fancy lad hairdos.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Sooooo nice day today aye

 

[cntr]

Here's your answer:

 

[Ganzlinger]

This thing about the name kinda applies to Nami and Nojiko as well. Her mother's name is Bellemere, which is a French name (she doesn't have a surname but I would imagine that it would be French-like?) but she chose Japanese names for her daughters. And Nami would be Swedish in real life, according to Oda.

 

[BatDan]

Pretty sure Jojo would give Veelk seizures if he tried to read it.

 

[cntr]

It probably wouldn't.

I thought the guy from the movie was Doflamingo for a second.

So then crewmate #10 is equally likely to be Jinbe, Kidd, Drake, or Koala.

Bring on Koala.

Even Big Mom joined the crew before Sanji.

Well Big Mom can beat Vertigo and Judge Vinsmoke, unlike swirly brow.

Do you guys think Elbaf will address how Giants and other giant creatures don't collapse under their own weight given the square cubed law?

 

[Rebel Leader]

The what?

 

[SolVanderlyn]

Is there a chapter this week?

Of course not lol

Of course.

They keep themselves upright with their warrior spirit.

No but I always wonder how the chemical makeup of an individual changes in response to exposure to the devil fruit. Do you think Oda will give us access to Dr. Vegapunk's reports and journals so we can check for ourselves the validity of the data?

I'm curious to know his hypothesis on how various DF's get away with violating the Law of Conservation of Mass. I'm pretty sure some violate the second law of thermodynamics with it's various, but I'm not as familiar with that one.

On second thought, does OP even have stable laws of the universe?

Indisputably.

If dorry and brogy fell in a forest would we hear it?

 

[cntr]

And does the forest have to be little?

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Are there talking trees in said forest

 

[BatDan]

I see the lack of Jump has made everyone crazy.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

Oddachi: Well, to tell the truth, I saw them fall in a forest, and I didn't hear anything. But later, I found out Corazon was there, so I don't know if he was using his fruit or not. I guess we will never know.

We were always crazy, we just hid it better.

Does Big Mom poop?
Does Dragon poop?
Do the Elder Stars poop?
Does the ONE PIECE POOP?

 

[Xux]

Yeah, I thought Black Beard beat Vertigo; though, I'm sure Dragon and Sabo and Koala and the other top officers are still alive.

 

[Veelk]

So whats the deal with the talking minks? You need a particular mouth structure for human langauge. Atleast fishmen seem to have developed that. Minks also have a anthropomorphized body, but their heads and especially their mouths generally remain true to their animal parts. A dog/cat/rabbit cannot produce several human langauge phonemes. How do they speak japanese/english/whatever one-pieceians speak?

 

[Ray Down]

My main question: is Buggy's nose dumb?

Better question: Why isn't Caeser nose dumb?
Clown is in his name.

Do we all poop?

The author-as-God is canonical in One Piece. Nobody has any agency, they are literally placed in each panel and have physical words hovering near their faces. They are soulless automatons that exist in two dimensions that can only silently scream as they are puppeted to Goda's amusement.
