@1000sunnygo pointed out that artur’s translation of the Rocky Port incindent was clearer than Pewpiece’s, which it is. I’ve got a screencap below, and the text for those without Twitter. And a link to the original:

“Q9: Please tell us about the Rocky Port Incident that resulted in Koby being called "the Hero". A9: I feel like it would take too long to draw it, so I don't think it'll be included in the main story. To put it simply, after hearing that there's a poneglyph on Pirate Island, Law snuck into and hijacked a massive passenger ship called the "Rocky Port", riding it all the way to Pirate Island. The ship was carrying the king and other important figures from a certain country. In reality however, the ship Law borded was a smuggling vessel which was doing business with Pirate Island under the flag of that same country, so some dangerous trouble brewed up. Law then got into conflict with the pirates. And later, Koby and Blackbeard got aboard with their respective objectives, resulting in the three fighting together. That's what came to be known as the incident. As the incident settled, Blackbeard became King of Pirate Island, Law joined the Royal Sea Warlords, and Koby came to be known as the "Hero".”

Also, read @1000sunnygo’s reflection! It’s interesting as always.

Robin had always "know too much" and been too "creepy, weird," and have "too many hands," but her mother had loved her, and for a long, long while that was all she needed... until she met a certain boy in a Straw Hat and his ragtag crew of pirates.

[myupostsheadcanons]

so, joyboy's name isn't "nika" like people think the fruit was named after him... but the fruit had been around well before the void century and that version of Joyboy... so, Joyboy was a nickname, a title, and their birth name was "Binks" from Binks' no Sake.

After chapter 1067, I'm ready to consider even the possibility of Luffy and Nico Robin being related or even half siblings or cousins.

Also I hope Dragon met Nico Olvia as well.

One Piece ch. 1065

Let’s go!

please don’t reply with any recent chapter 1068 raw spoilers (when do those come out anymore, anyway?); I generally I wait for the official English releases.

*Spoilers* for chapters 1065 & 1066 (Why together? Because I read & recorded my responses together)

Genuinely laughed when I read this which was what jump-started this whole thing. Like, hilarious but also, yep, me too! Thanks Zoro for speaking my mood on what’s-his-name. (I refuse to look it up.)

Actual note whilst reading: Zoro 🤣 👍

Sun fuel...hmm, I would have thought water would be more useful (oxygen & hydrogen) and you have more of that available, but if you’re talking sun (solar) fuel you might be going for nuclear?

But wait! the reason there’s interest in whether there’s frozen water on the Moon is to get hydrogen & oxygen. If there is, it can be broken down into oxygen which can be highly flammable I believe and hydrogen which I’m pretty sure is a potent element per energy...which I’m also pretty sure is a component of stars (e.g. the sun). Sooo, maybe it’s hydrogen Vegapunk is after?

Like, if the Fire beings Marco remembered Whitebeard telling him about (and which is probably related to King) are somehow connected to the lost kingdom then yeah, it makes sense that the fuel powering their technology would be solar. But there’s just so much Moon focused stuff too.

Personally I think it’d be cool if there’s either some Moon fuel power for the old tech or ~even better~ some kind of sea power. (There’s also potentiality of willpower, which would be weird but there’s precedent in One Piece.)

Nami 😂 what!

But also! 🤩 Me too! Yes please!! Please give me jewel flowers! Yes Nami will my Aladdin fairytale visual to life! 😍

I’m loving the new “i will murder if you threaten my shipmates/family” Robin

Holy shit! Are the seraphim clones of the 7 Warlords!? So far we’ve seen the Hancock child ones and now Jinbe. Was there some kind of stealth sneaking of genetic material from them?? Like hair or something. 0-0

Is that why the government wanted the strongest pirates??

Isn’t that growing up? Don’t things just adapt as they age and grow? Unless the seraphim aren’t living/alive. But blood... 🤔 that makes me think of organic life... what are you doing Vegapunk?

One Piece ch. 1066

Lots of backstory, and nothing especially unusual (lost kingdom fought what became the World Government, of course, thanks for confirming!), but what I found most compelling (or more compelling) was the way all the threads of each Straw Hat (who’s met who in the broader world and what each of them knows and doesn’t know) are weaving together.

In other words, the Straw Hats have had all these different pieces of experience and knowledge that are casually coming up, not in a “oo! learning information for plot” way but in a “hey that person I also know of” and I think that’s cool.

It gives the world a sense of depth — different characters experiencing different sides of the same person

It makes me feel like they’re all facets of a bigger whole — as a group in-story and as characters whose particular plots as written have come together. By giving each of them different knowledge and experiences across the wide array of characters in the world it gives *me* the feeling of woven threads coming together, whether characters or narrative.

Also this:

Heck yeah! Get angry about that! But yeah, ~feelings~ for Robin, Ohara and the survival of restricted knowledge and how it endures.

😭 all my heart forever

Artur tells part of his story and how one piece helped him.

[tokiro07]

Me: Alright, no more Makeships, they just take up space and you don't have that much money to spend Library of Ohara: Check out this Makeship One Piece world map plush! Me: （；´д｀）ゞ$$$

[chromatic-lamina]

Just wanted to add this from Artur to stop folks from worrying:

Verified by Sandman as well. And here, (gently) about the first translation above, I think

``ONE PIECE'' will be suspended from Weekly Shonen Jump issues 18 to 20, which will be released next week, due to interviews and planning. It will be published as usual in issue 17, which will be released next week. We apologize for keeping our readers waiting. We are planning to restart with issue 21, which will be released on April 22nd (Monday).

One Piece will have a 3 week break after chapter 1111

[chromatic-lamina]

Gonna have to read it again in depth later, but Artur's analysis of 1115. It's long but good! (as all of his analyses are).

[nanamis-bigtie]

ALRIGHT, some people apparently don't even intend to wait until it's april 1st everywhere. So, if you see a trailer for live action one piece DO NOT click on it - and if you decide to watch it anyway, DO NOT turn the volume up. That's just a rick roll jump scare with a huge volume difference compared to the beginning of video.

From Arthur’s Twitter/Library of Ohara.

He’s one of the Oharan scholars. His days are numbered. They were noble folk (or so it seems!). I think he’s smashable!
