Oh god I’m at the One Piece episode where King’s face is revealed and I shit you not when I say I clawed my couch and gasped out loud.

And oh my god he’s so big.

Okay, so another deep dive into symbolism in relation to that one scene with Law vs Big Mom (Wano arc spoilers)

I have honestly loved this bit of the fight against Big Mom and the absolute symbolism we get just from the color choices alone

Sure, we can argue that it's just a cool monochromatic theme going on with a color pop. But considering that at that moment in the fight, he was literally fighting for his life for a payoff with Kid's combined attack, it's VERY much the callback for Law when he was fighting for his life as a child. The fact that they not only decided to use a monochromatic palate, but also make Law's hair WHITE is such A MAJOR thing when you consider that one of the late stage symptoms with White Lead Disease was the hair turning white. But what really really gets me about this scene, is that you have this part that's in full color when Big Mom asks if he's dead and Lands a major punch on him. Also interesting (and perhaps a small bit of a reach) is that Big Mom's hair is pretty much made of flames at this point in the fight.

And then you get this cut which looks like blood falling on a mostly white background, which ofc is symbolic of where Corazon died and also can be meant to for the blood spilled in the White Town of Flevance. What’s also interesting to note is that the smaller splotches of blood look very similar to the splotches on Law’s hat when he was younger, which I don’t think they would have made this choice if it wasn’t meant to be a parallel. Also upon closer examination, there is a shape of a heart that is made both with the larger pools of blood, and the negative space, if you really take a moment to look.

I think it's also important to note that the shot with the sword is also in monochromatic colors as the K-Room is in black and white rather than the usual blue, and the magma is the same red/pink as his tattoos and hat spots. He was enduring all of Big Mom's punches to stay alive long enough to ensure he could carry out his goal, much as Corazon did.

And when he calls for Kidd, and he says "Don't make me repeat myself, Trafalgar! Don't tell me what to do!"

You get Law's smiling blood stained face that looks like Corazon's face paint extending from the corner of his mouth.

And then of course his crew is threatened with giving up their lives to Big Mom and he tells them that they should be the ones getting away

Then in order to save their lives (and Kid's crew along with everyone else in earshot) He uses the Re-Room

What else I find even more meaningful is that the bubble in which Cora-san enables Calm is always shown in purple too.

Obviously the purple enveloping Law when he uses Re-Room was also due in part to Kid's Damned Punk, but it's too coincidental not to have not noticed

Anyways, thanks for coming to another one of my Ted Talks!

Ahhh. ☺️ I’ve been looking at Usopp vids on YouTube to get me out of Usopp fan angst. And this video really didn’t disappoint.

Truly.

The individual who created the video made all good points as to what Usopp represents and why he is a needed Straw Hat. It made me like the long-nosed sniper even more.

If you’re looking for some simple (not-so-long) YouTube videos that provide character analysis for One Piece characters, PK Buggy is where it’s at. He did a good job with the video.

Usopp may be a scaredy cat but when it comes to fighting for those he loves and wants to wholeheartedly protect, with heavy conviction, then dang it! Usopp is even more invincible than the D in Luffy’s name.

If you’re an Usopp fan just know you aren’t alone.

Why did Wano give Usopp haters so much ammo? Before Nami’s firm resolve in defending Luffy’s honor scene, Usopp did it first! Ugh! 🤬 But apparently selling fake toad cream and not wanting to see a friend get their head literally bashed into the wall is an effin’ dealbreaker!!!!! Wano is my least favorite arc because of all the Usopp hate. Like, how can I be so hyped up for the next arc when the Usopp slander continues?

BUT I must wait for Elbaf. I can. I will.

And if Oda pulls the rug right from under Usopp fans, or moves the finish line again when it comes to Usopp’s time to shine once more I’m going to make a documentary about being an Usopp fan, and how Elbaf hurt so so so so so so so so so so so so so much!!!!! Heck, Usopp-fans might have to come together and make our own fan-funded Usopp Elbaf anime movie or somethin’.

Anywho, I’m making a full summary and list of all of the Usopp-centric Elbaf theories I’ve found on the web (YouTube, Reddit, TikTok, and etc)! They’re always so interesting to read and watch and (most likely) better than what we’ll get in canon. So, the post will be up soon.

Wait till Elbaf, y’all!

Oh you thought the first bit was a throw away comic relief moment?

This is what we mean when we say everything matters in One Piece.

The Drums of Liberation Ring in One Piece!

With the anime debut of Gear Fifth imminent, RJ Writing Ink chooses to rant about good the Drums of Liberation were in One Piece

A Fan Rant about the Drums of Liberation Moment in One Piece Tonight, One Piece fans shall witness Monkey D. Luffy achieve his peak form, Gear Fifth, and essentially become a toon-force empowered god. Those who have read the manga know this is more than hyperbole. Luffy is about to unlock a power so ridiculous that it defies reality itself; this will be Popeye’s level of toon force! And it all…
