ONE PIECE CHAPTER 1128 SPOILERS

I was going to say that I don't know why I particularly feel like talking about this chapter because it's pretty normal, but I DO know and it's because it's centered around my East Blue five, huge day for og fans. I'm sure the dynamic of this particular group is enjoyed by many people regardless of when they started reading the story, but the nostalgia hit for those of us who have been here for, dare I say, decades is immense.

And this time I want to start with the color spread, bitch I LOVE THEM THIS IS SUCH A TREAT FOR ME. Nami and Franky have had some lovely moments in recent years in the manga and to me he's her real big brother (and not Zoro, as The Most Annoying People in the World often come to my channel to say).

Before I go on, I want to say that I'm not going to go pointing them out because other people analyze these things better than me but, despite the fact that it looks like they are indeed all together and that the boys are not Nami's hallucination, something still seems off to me. There's some dialogue and attitudes that seem odd to me and I'm very interested to know what's really going on.

Now, this reminded me so much of when they first arrived at Whiskey Peak because back then Luffy, Usopp and Sanji were inmediately drawn by the ambience of the island and only Zoro and Nami remained impassive. Sanji here is not drawn by the island, but by Nami, but my point still stands because it's just the energy the panel gives.

This whole chapter is a nostalgic trip for me because this next panel reminded me of that scene in Jaya where the group goes in search of a southbird and Nami and Sanji almost have a heart attack in that forest because they both have a terrible phobia of bugs. Usopp looked great that night.

AND THIS JSJSJSJSJS Zoro, Nami and Sanji with the same expression, I love them so much.

It's difficult to have one favorite panel in this chapter but these two are up there. Sanji is so fucking right and I love the detail of Nami running after them right after charming that man so that he does not suspect that they have done something bad already and that Luffy is probably about to do something worse.

Nami looks so pretty this chapter, it's actually insane. She is going to serve in Elbaf like never before.

I was right the first time! Chopper was nowhere to be seen! And once again, Nami will never beat the funniest mugiwara allegations.

And finally, this reminded me of the Arabasta desert trip on the giant crab. I don't now if this parallels are made on purpose or not but oh how I enjoyed this.

And if they are made on purpose, I wonder if creating parallels to older arcs will be a recurring theme in this arc. This will probably be our last adventure arc, after this we'll face the big villains and go for the One Piece almost certainly (it made me dizzy to write this), so it seems to me the perfect time to remember how far we've come.

Heh, that's cold as hell Nami. Never change. She also got to steal and flirt this chapter. A wild, raucous chapter on the whole, but to pick up from last time I'm like to highlight how it does still reinforce this idea something seems weird. Great chapter for classic East Blue crew gags. But you have stuff like Sanji now dropping in a reminder how he feels about bugs after last time, not to mention this one having some of its own contradictions.

I also want to take a moment to highlight the title given the chapter doesn't have anything super specific relating back to it. "RPG," like the type of game you'd see this setting in. That's just a really interesting concept to introduce here in this chapter, to have hanging over all of it. But let's get on with the show:

This panel is amazing. I love everything about this. So whatever ended up happening, the first six were whisked away into a giant's weird terrarium thing. I love the bit about how cooking the rabbit smelled awful because of the burning plastic, which also confirms plastic exists in One Piece. You never really know about the tech level with this series.

But yeah, so this is a big cage with a one-way mirror. Gives the illusion of being in a town especially with the fear of the Sun God's Temple. They break out and find Chopper in the process of being dressed up. So this does mean it's the second time Nami has been dolled up by a creep but at least the rest of the gang got in on it? Just think about that. This Sun God has seen Zoro's doodle. I know many of you are jealous.

Good inflection point. Nami's saying it, not me. Just because we're in the house of a giant does not mean we're in Elbaf. This could still be on a giant ship, a Green Bit-style small island nearby, or all manner of places. Remember people last time pointed out a lot of oddities and inconsistencies. We still see that idea played with again here, like slipping in a reminder Sanji does hate bugs.

We need to watch stuff like this going forward, this is still a very odd situation. I also feel it's a little weird to so quickly go back in. Same with being so worried about a giant. Not to go all powerscaler but...you have that scene of Luffy chiding Usopp for not just fighting the cat. Props for calling Zoro an enabler. He is one. But it is just kinda odd.

Doesn't matter, Luffy's causing chaos. Beating up more giant animals and attracting the attention of this mysterious figure. Notably showing off the real "Sun God" form as the false one enters. They scamper back into the cage and all hell breaks loose.

I don't know what to make of this one, it's absolutely wild. It's really hard to tell where we go from here but I'm definitely intrigued. Very glad we won't have to wait long til the next installment. Oh, and be sure to stop back by at some random point tonight for the new Hunter x Hunter!

One Piece 1128

"Scared of Bugs" Sanji💖 I am so glad to see you return King. You were never once forgotten by the fandom ever since jaya

Also I can't believe we have the "Luffys enabler" thing called out in canon. Zoro🤝Robin🤝Sabo letting that funky dude run off to fight some gods at every opportunity This is genuinely so fun and all the interactions were absolute peak :'D I was never one to critisize post time skipas I think One piece never lost its steam and even improved on a lot of things like the expression game on the girls as seen last chapter. But this gives me so heavy nostalgia for the early grand line banter. Its like we are back in skypiea all over again but in the best possible way

It sure doesnt!

Little 1128 bonus in lieu of a Yamato cover story, courtesy of a conversation with Fallensnowfan. Very simple, but very interesting implications. See the orange box around Sun God's speech bubble? Odd choice of words but one we've seen a lot actually...

Sun God uses sessha to refer to himself. The archaic personal pronoun we saw with the samurai. I did go back over the past few chapters with giants thinking well they're ancient warrior dudes and no...just this guy.
