sanji fights garling while Zoro vs Ethan
garling being the new warrior god of science defense and being the knight to Venus samurai ( and garling is the moon associated with Zoro ( shimotsuki means frost moon) while the planet Venus can be associated with Sanji
zeff called sanji chibinasu Ethan’s name is nasujuro
adds to Venus vs Zoro and garling vs Sanji ( garling who scarred primebeard
for Zoro ( samurai) and sanji (knight)
Oda says Samurai & Knights are the prototype for Zoro & Sanji!!! Oda's manuscript for his unpublished work 'GREAT SWORDSMEN (Samurai vs knights) ' 30 years ago Oda :"Ryuma the samurai has appeared along with the dragon in my prototype works, MONSTERS. I always want to draw the combination of samurai & knight in MONSTERS, but in the end they've become the prototype version of Zoro & Sanji"
it fits for their opponents to fit the aesthetic and they tend to have enemies that have a dislike for each other rivalry or some coinciding theme it fits for them to fight people who reference each other since they have
Garling scarred wb. without a df ( who is now empowered is likely the strongest of the gorosei since imu represents earth and the moon is the closest to it shanks references tyr so what if garling killsshanks
Garling may have also gotten a power and become a monster! Is Garling the Fenrir, a monstrous (moon)wolf in Norse mythology? - Fenrir plays a key role during the events of Ragnarök. - Fenrir also has two sons: Hati and Skoll.
plus one of Saturn's moons is named Fenrir
garling took Saturn's seat so it fits for him to have the power of Fenrir.
Garling's replacement of Saturn and his hairstyle representing the moon could symbolize him becoming "Fenrir
(If the above theory is true )Also shanks and garling are like judge and sanji heck both sanji and shanks were raised by pirates
Well the connection between them is very many.
—But we must start off with the first and most important. The science group that judge was in aka “Mad”
Who was the person that Vp took orders from when he started working with the WG…….”SATURN”👀
—Now the new warrior god of science is “Garling” he could hire Neo mads!!!
The connections are really endless. —Sanji dad is called judge & we was introduced to Garling,It said he passed senetence. (Similar to a fucking judge!!) Also both have royal born sons that are outcasts of the family. •Shanks •Sanji Both fathers being and into science!!
—The biggest connection is judge children. His 3 sons wear shades similar to Garling & have those wacky hairstyles just like garlings.
(The eldest vinsmoke brother has red hair)
I began to think to myself. What if shanks don’t only just have one sibling….
—I think shanks will probably have 3 bros & 1 sis!!
maybe sanjis mom is shanks sister
"The connection between Garm and Fenrir is made due to 3 Stanzas in the Völuspa in Stanzas 44, 49 and 58 the line is that Garm howls and the next line states that the chains break an the wolf runs. The second line is understood to refere to Fenrir. Since Garm and Fenrir are thus named so closely together it is theorised that Garm is another name for Fenrir or was so at one point, befor becoming its own character in the Mythology."
The two images of bound wolves breaking loose at the same time can’t help but make one wonder whether or not Fenrir and Garm are ultimately the same figure.
This interpretation is supported by the fact that, as the gods and the forces of chaos battle during Ragnarok, the god Tyr is said to engage Garm in single combat.[3] Since Tyr had earlier tricked Fenrir into allowing himself to be bound in an unbreakable chain, and since Fenrir had bitten off the god’s hand in the process, it would make sense for the two to have a vendetta against each other, which in turn makes it likely that the wolf Tyr will fight during Ragnarok is none other than Fenrir.
a popular game I played had referenced this theory
sanji is a foil to Luffy so maybe he is part of a celestial dragon bloodline via his mother while Luffy is part of a D bloodline through his dad
sanji and luffy are foils
sanji and luffy are foils to each other and the blackbeard pirates are the evil counterpart to strawhats with
blackbeard being evil luffy

“ So, I was thinking that Luffy and Sanji are like two sidesfrom the same coin, ‘cause there are some aspects of them that are the same or at least really similar, but some others are just complete opposites (This is going to be pretty long, sorry, so I’m dividing it in blocks, which may be a lil messy, sorry) Appearence: Both, are thin, but, while Sanji is tall, Luffy is short. Sanji has blond and well brushed hair that covers part of his face, but Luffy’s got black messy hair. Both have a “mark” on their face, Luffy’s got his scar, Sanji’s got his eyebrows. Sanji always wears formal clothes that are black, whileLuffy wears informal clothes, which are bright colored. Fighting Style: Both fight without anything else but thier body, but while Luffy’s a Devil Fruit user, Sanji’s not. On the other hand, Sanji’s the best swimmer in the crew. Also, Luffy uses mostly his fists to attack, while Sanji uses only his legs (well he uses knifes in his fight versus Wanze, but just one fight, so let’s ignore it). Personality: Most of the time, Sanji’s composed and mature, but there’s a lot of moments when he’s really childish. Luffy, is most of the time childish, but he can be serious if the moment requires to. While Sanji has shown he has sexual desires, Luffy has shown he has less sexual desires than a snail. Both are hopeless dreamers, with kinda impossible dreams. Sanji want to find a legendary sea that may not exist, and Luffy wants to find a legendary tresaure that’s wanted by a lot of people. Luffy will do whatever he has to do to achieve it, but Sanji has been shown to deny his desire to accomplish his dream, just for the sake of someone else. Luffy’s an excited child that go running towards anything that sounds fun to him without any second thought. Sanji’s careful and thinks his next moves with precison, also Sanji is one of the main strategist of the crew Luffy easily falls for lies,tricks and ilusions, while Sanji doesn’t and even sometimes uses them in his advantage. Both are so damn protective, but Sanji’s a lot more sacrificed. Luffy’s loud and bad at infiltrating, but Sanji’s quiet and awfully good at infiltraitng and finding ways to help the crew. Story/Family: Both are saved by a pirate that looses, an arm on Luffy’s part, a leg on Sanji’s part, Their fathers are both famous criminals, but while Sanji’s father’s more from the underworld, Luffy’s father from the upperworld. Also both have two older siblings, but while Luffy’s aren’t blood related, Sanji’s are. Well, that’s just a list of things that have come to my mind for now. Feel free to expand it. Sanji can’t hit a woman at all, while Luffy could care less about your gender if you’re the enemy. Zoro’s in the middle of the spectrum. I got this from TV Tropes. I’d also like to point out how Oda’s chosen colors for them are red and blue. While you have Zoro and Nami whose colors are their hair color, Sanji could honestly have yellow or even black as a color, but those were assigned to Usopp and Brook instead.
In most literature, red and blue are symbolic opposites. Usually they designate for convenience enemies or rivals at least. While Sanji’s rival is Zoro, sanji unwilling had sort of a heelface turn where in chapter 844 they actually had what they talked about sort of sanji vs. luffy more like sanji hitting luffy in order to strive him down both sanji and luffy had 2 flashbacks first one featuring their mentor and their mentors losing a limb for them and the second featuring a relationship with their brothers for luffy it was in spirit for sanji it was biological for luffy it was positive relationship for sanji negative in the tea party since sanji is trying to save his biological brothers and father who he hates while e how luffy tried to save his brother in spirit ace
this serves as an excellent point of contrast while sanji is saved his brothers and father who he hates (along with his sister who he loves) luffy tried to save his brother in spirit and failed where sanjis mentor lost a leg to protect him while luffys mentor shanks lost a arm saving him heck in the manga this was outright referenced when luffy told him
and they are both connected to the sun with luffy being the son god fruit user
and sanji associated with sun in a meta way
Judge was to be named Saint-Germain, eventually this became the name of Germa Kingdom’s flagship. I think the name Saint-Germain comes from the city Saint-Germain-en-Laye (the same as Paris Saint-Germain FC). Interestingly, this city was the birthplace of Sun King Louis XIV
Sun king Louis supposedly had a twin brother who was the man in the iron mask ( which is referenced in sanjis backstory )
in the story man in the iron mask
also germa kingdom is a reference to shocker from kamen rider and kamen rider black was solar powered who lit his legs and fists on fire
there’s a tokusatsu that we know Oda likes, which would be a much more explicit inspiration for the Germa 66 : Kamen Rider. specifically the villainous organization shocker
Shocker was a terrorist organization that planned on ruling the world (in the original manga is shown that Shocker had some influences over the governments of the world), with virtually all of its members modified in some way. The founders had mostly Nazi ties
so it fits that germa66 not only references the nazis but the shocker organization from kamen rider
Shocker’s scientists performed surgical alterations that gave the subject superhuman fighting abilities. Even the most basic Shocker soldier was tougher, stronger and faster than the average human civilian. The most powerful of their forces were the Kaijin, modified humans who were combined with animal DNA and human cybernetics to create living weapons.
In an attempt to create the ultimate warriors, they were responsible for the rise of the very first Kamen Riders 1 and 2, whom defected and became the heroes who would ultimately lead to the fall of Shocker.
and sanji and his siblings were altered genetically
and the kamen riders specialty is the kamen rider KICK
In it Kamen Rider Black RX is a cyborg whose motif is a black grasshopper, which mirrors Sanji’s own epithet as Black Leg. Grasshoppers are known for their incredible spring like leg muscles that allow them to jump incredible heights which allow them to launch themselves in the air to fly. However he also has another motif and that is based on the sun. Kamen Rider Black RX is a photosynthetic warrior who is powered by the sun.
Since Kamen Rider is powered by the sun, he can set his legs and fists on fire to increase the lethality of his kicks and punches, which is basically what Sanji’s Diable Jambe does

"Garling's name alludes to Ernest Albert Garlington, a US army General, who much like the Holy Knight, distinguished himself in an incident that involved a massacre of a land's native peoplenote Garlington was a Lieutenant at the time of the Wounded Knee Massacre and received the Medal of Honor for "distinguished gallantry.".
homeofheroes . com/heroes-stories/other-conflicts/garlington-family-of-service/"
garlington has a grandson that was born in Paris,france
oda said that sanjis irl nationality would be france so this may fit with the idea that sora is garlings daughter
