Okay, I had this thought just now, as I've just finished rereading Wano Arc and was absolutely lovingggg Luffy and Momo interactions. Luffy is so hard on him, but Momo needed that, because in the end, Luffy also shows he cares about Momo and cares about Momo's honest opinions. And then I was thinking, who are the best set of siblings (biologically related or not biologically related) in One Piece? What do you guys think?

(I definitely couldn't fit all siblings in the poll, and some siblings can be further divided, so feel free to take this how you will. Also my brain is so fried right now I wonder if I even make sense xD)

Who are the best siblings (bio or not) in One Piece?

Ace, Luffy, Sabo

Nami and Nojiko

The Vinsmokes (including Sanji, though that's a bit tough*)

The Charlottes (again, this is tough**)

Kiku and Izo

Luffy and Momo

Momo and Hiyori

Gorgon Sisters (Hancock, Sandersonia, Marigold

Shanks and Shamrock

Doflamingo and Rosinante

Loki and Hajrudin

Other

Voting ended onJun 11

*I have opinions on each of the Vinsmoke brothers, and of Reiju (I think she's the best of them, but she also has her flaws)

**They're all kind of good to each other; they are protective (Katakuri, Brulee, Cracker, Oven, etc), even though some siblings are less lovely than others...(*cough* Flampe)

[sanaserena]

Grrr Marineford (arc) made me emotional again. At this time. The coincidence was perhaps better than not. It will never not affect me that arc.

Now I'm at Fish-Man Island arc, and what can I say... I'm reminded again why Zoro is my favourite between Sanji and him, specifically in the manga (Sanji is great btw, but Zoro just has different flaws that I relate to more).

Though can I really call his actions in this chapter a flaw? 😅😅 He totally just ran with it, even though the situation they got into was in self defence for the Strawhats (iykyk).

While I don't know if we'll see it in live action, it would be hilarious if we saw a scene like this xD

P.s. I will never forgive Viz for using Zolo instead of Zoro - I get why, but yeah no.

You know on a side extra note, it's kinda even funnier that while King Neptune is getting Zoro's name wrong alongside Viz using "Zolo" xD

Okay maybe it's only funny in my head....🫠

[sanaserena]

Ah*... it feels so long ago since I drew this, and when I was rusty, returning to drawing things after 15 years of not drawing much (actually none at all, I barely draw during those 15years) ... and doing it digitally too. This nearly broke my brain. But writing this fic of mine... and with it being so long meant I have more time and desire to want to draw scenes from it xD.

I can see what went wrong in this drawing and if I had the time and energy, I would draw it again sometime in the future and see how much my art has developed since I decided to start drawing again, BUT I still love it and it blows my mind that I even managed to complete it (seeing as my initial sketch is the horror of horrors for the ugly stage 🤣🤣🤣). I was and am still happy I was able to draw this when something like this was so difficult and disheartening for me before I went on a drawing-break.

Hehe, still, to this day, the highlight of this drawing for me was the fact that I put "Corazon" on the band of his underwear and the backstory that I joked about with my muse was that Doffy gave his Executives underwear with their titles on it for Christmas (or something like that, we joked about it a couple years ago now, so my memory is vague xD).

Anyway, because this is supposed to be a piece fanart/art for my fic involving a Reader character, the girl you see is only my interpretation of the Reader character. The "Grey Bald" version near the end is just the placeholder for the Reader character 😅😅. After all this time, this is still one of those times where I didn't like the grey version (she looks like an android...)

You can read my thoughts on drawing it here: Link; That's where I keep all my drawings.

*A/n: I wrote this post before something happened on Monday (yesterday), and now I post it as a means to distract myself from things.

[twodevils]

Our girls are getting some Autographs too!

Left is Aurora (SanaSerena) and Right is Joy (Legacyofafox).

@sanaserena was fun drawing your Oc 😋

[sanaserena]

Ahaha I tested three (or four?) different autographs for Aurora, but the "A" was always going to be it xD

You drew Aurora so cute and Joy glam xD

[sanaserena]

Water 7 and Enies Lobby arc was awesome as always T>T. There is so much in this arc...

On a side note, I can't wait for a similar scene in OPLA -- of Luffy and Koby meeting again after East Blue! Even though OPLA pushed forward the Garp sub plot (which I did like, for reasons), I hope we do get a reunion some like this from the manga in the live action. Because at this point, Koby has grown and changed and I just love his friendship with Luffy!! (We probably won't get this scene, even though it's great in the manga, but I am sure I'll be happy with however the live action does it, if we get that far!!! (Fingers crossed and hope for the best).

Also, with Aidan Scott as Helmeppo in the live action, I kinda look forward to seeing his version of this new and improved Helmeppo from the manga!

[sanaserena]

So, I'm currently rereading One Piece from after the Alabasta arc, and damn, I forgot how good Skypeia is (but I will admit, the first time I read the arc many, many, years ago, I didn't pay too much attention to it. But now it's up there among all my favourite arcs, after rereading it so many times.) Luffy in the Jaya Arc was awesome, especially against Bellamy. Luffy and the bell. Enel is weirder than I remember (every time I reread, I feel he gets weirder and weirder and I don't mean his design). Wyper, on the other hand is more and more intense with every reread. Also Noland and Kalgara, that backstory... I can't even. These twoooooo....

Anyway, I'm in Water 7 now, but yesterday I was rereading the Long Ring Island arc, and yep, if we ever get this far in the live action, I can't wait for Zoro being a Dad to Chopper T>T. Zoro really is my favourite in the manga, between Zoro and Sanji (I love this guy too, but Zoro is on a whole different level). Actually what am I saying... we will probably get a glimpse of Dad Zoro in Alabasta.

[sanaserena]

This was such a random shower thought this morning. There's no basis for it. I'm just curious. OPLA Zoro? or OPLA Sanji?

I love both, in manga and in OPLA, but in manga, Zoro is my favourite between the two, he's so loyal I love it. I also really like Mackenyu's Zoro, and I have no problems with his season 1 portrayal.

I do love Sanji in the manga, he's cool, sweet, and has epic character moments all through. But OPLA Sanji is so damn adorable. Taz Skylar does him so well.

So, what do you think?

(Also, the more I write this post the more rambly I feel okay it's Saturday morning, a non-work day, and I'm soooo not awake yet. And it occurs to me that someone else might have done this poll before butttttttttt doesn't matter.)

OPLA Zoro or OPLA Sanji?

OPLA Zoro

OPLA Sanji

Both

Other?

To be fair, I've avoided using half naked versions of these two (you know those scenes in S2! S1!) out of concern that it might be too distracting and y'all might forget to vote.

Oh wait and a clip! I really want Zoro's hat. I say this as a person who would just collect it and not wear hats because my hair will go as flat as when people thought Earth was flat. I still want the hat though xD (Just as much as I want and now kind of have a version of Robin's hat from the Dressrosa Arc.)

[sanaserena]

I put my version of Doll on my Tomodachi life and she has currently befriended all of the children and none of the men. Good for her.

Omg xD Yes good for her 🤣🤣 It's nice to hear she's friends to children and tough on all the men in all worlds 💪🏻💛

[legacyofafox]

I've made some more celeb AU Autographs from the planned One Piece Collab fic with @sanaserena.

This time Killer, Rosinante, Crocodile and Doflamingo!

[twodevils]

Still feeling it!

[sanaserena]

Still love the shirt you drew for Killer (it's almost as ____smic as the other; I'll be nice and keep that word a secret 💛🤣)

[sanaserena]

Of late, I have two songs on repeat, like a balm against the unexpected chaos of the past week.

My Italian is so bad/so so so rusty so I can't comment on the translation, but I do love that we have an opera version of My Sails are Set!

Also, I love listening to how Sonya Belousova talks about making music (just as much as I love listening to the costume designer (the proper name is escaping my tired brain atm) talk about they created the costumes, which I find absolutely fascinating) because there are so many details. I'm sure there are other composers (etc, yes, I'm not an expert) but she and Giona Ostinelli do the soundtrack for OPLA, which I love, so it makes sense that I want to hear what they about how they made the music for it xD.

[sanaserena]

Muse why are you so cute when you are excited?

Because muse asks me such cute questions like this 🤩🤩🤩 💛💛

[queen-of-andor]

Opla Zoro is the King of pettiness.

After exchanging these words with Sanji at the beginning of episode 3:

He waited almost the whole episode to throw Sanji's words about his knife skills right back at him when he saved him ( and Usopp):

Gotta love his dedication to being petty xD

On a side note, he actually trusts Sanji's fighting skills and that's why he leaves without freeing them. He knows he can continue fighting the remaining of the 100 agents without having to worry over his crew members safety because Sanji is there and he can keep Usopp and himself safe.

[sanaserena]

Love these two in the manga.

Love them in the anime.

Love them in live action.

[sanaserena]

Still in top 10 in week 5 for OPLA S2! I consider this a good thing, because if we look at all the hours viewed and runtime, and the weeks in the top 10, you can clearly see OPLA S2 is a bigger feat than the others (okay, I haven't done the maths, first I need to actually sit and compare and analyse the shite out of everything (which honestly sounds fun but maths is a forced strength for me so I actually need a fully working and not distracted brain to get all the maths right) which I can't right now, and second, I probably shouldn't be procrastinating right now...again.)

It's probably not fair to compare to the Cleaning Lady (which I haven't watched and don't intend to), but I'm gonna anyway since it's the only one with the closest runtime. Similar runtime, similar hours viewed. Difference in weeks in top 10 (significant), difference in number of season (OPLA is S2, and usually second seasons will drop in viewership for whatever reasons, while TCL is S1). Again, not a fair comparison at all and no basis, but I just revel in this as a positive sign for OPLA S2.

I would also like to think Raw is... wrestling, right? Not something I care to be interested in, and though it is popular, it's still only for those who like it?

I'm not sure OPLA S2 will be in top 10 next week, and even if I hope for it, I think it's done well this year! (Again... I would need to actually compare for proper stats, but hell, I'm an optimist, so we're going the optimistic route.)

Anyway ...I should probably stop and actually do what I need to do now.... (I'm sorry you stopped and read my pointless post 😅😅😅)

[legacyofafox]

Made some art with a planned celeb AU One Piece collaboration with @sanaserena , had a lot of fun doing them. I might do more.

The characters are Kid, Law and Luffy in a Polaroid Autograph style!

They are all drawn in a modern singer version. Yesterday I got this fun idea in my head that they all could be in a boy group.

[twodevils]

I feel that Collab a bit too much T.T Muuse it's torture!

[sanaserena]

These three would fight over who would be leader singer xDDDDD

[sanaserena]

I don't have a lot of opinions of Miss Goldenweek in the manga, but the live action one is creepy af (Usopp calling her "Creepy Longstocking" omg loved that moment). It's so interesting seeing how she was adapted, because almost all of her actions and scenes can also be found in the manga (the tea drinking, Luffy dealing with all the colours of her paints, betrayal black, etc) BUT it's just creepier and darker in live action. I think the only thing new was the backstory she tells (which seriously, girl, that gave me chills). Oh and the way the paint works. Miss Goldenweek in live action is also 'older' than her manga counterpart who is a child (so I've just been reminded, she is 16 in the manga, which I'll admit I totally forgot but then again I really didn't have a lot of opinions on her character so I can see why I forgot xDDD and well, as someone who also has a small stature, I feel bad for looking at her height and thinking 'child'), which we get the impression of from the story she tells, so the changes feel more fitting. Anyway, I thought the actress did a great job. I still think the moment when Usopp 'defeats' her is fabuloussss.

Edit: Also, on reflecting that Miss Goldenweek was 16 in the manga, and Sophia Anne Caruso herself looks young, that darkens her live action portrayal even more. The age gap in my mind between manga and live action even smaller ... 😅😅

[twodevils]

We had an idea for interviewing certain Characters of One piece. And since we have waaaay too many ideas we involve you guys!

Who is the most funniest or difficult character/s that you would want to interview?

Benn Beckman

Garp and Sengoku

Eustass Kid

Silvers Rayleigh

Fujitora

Honestly, we had a longer list, but a random generator said we gotta try these 5(6) first. Who do you think would be the funniest and most difficult character to interview? Just imagine the most chaotic responses (honestly, I think Kid would drive me up a wall) and I do have this recent desire to just stretch those writing legs for (some) characters we write less often!
