#the *hito hito no mi*

[writesailingdreams]

Thinking it's wild that the Hito Hito no Mi (Human-Human fruit) was introduced in the same arc that introduced:

Ace

Gol D. Roger

the Will of D

inherited will

Luffy and his hito hito no mi 🥹

The WG trying to keep Luffy down and causing his devil fruit awakening is the funniest thing ever.

me, realizing that bounce man and snake man were foreshadowing for luffy's devil fruit being more than just a rubber fruit and that i was a fool for doubting oda all the way back a decade or so ago when bounce man was first introduced and i thought it was dumb because while the previous gears made sense what didn't make sense was how the hell a rubber fruit would cause luffy to temporarily develop flame sun?! tattoos and eyeliner except turns out it made perfect sense i just didn't have the context needed to understand it yet:

can we talk about law in this panel for a second like everyone is literally shocked that they’re eyes are popping out and mouths open except law well only his eyes are popping out like he looks more concerned than shocked kinda a parallel moment when luffy used g4 for the first time and sent 🦩 flying everyone was shocked and law was damn that’s cool but he’s using 2 much haki

if that’s the case on why he looks a little “different” from everyone else than i think that’s adorable

Not to sound too insane or delusional right now BUT...

I was looking at pictures of Roger and my attention got caught by the jolly roger on his hat.

Specifically on the mustache of his jolly roger, and suddenly I realised that it reminded me of something...

Luffy's twirly eyebrows during the gear 5's transformation!

And that's even more weird because if you think about it, jolly rogers are supposed to represent the captain of a crew, right? Like Whitebeard's jolly roger has exactly the same type of mustache he has, Luffy's one has a straw hat, Shank's one has his three scars and so on...

But Roger doesn't have his mustache curved like that or even of that white/light colour. He has normal (and beautiful) black mustache!

So... Why did Roger choose that kind of jolly roger, when it doesn't represent how he normally looks? 👀

You know what I'm hinting at right? Even without taking into account all the similarities between Luffy and Roger's behaviour...

Also I know that the fruit hasn't been awakened in 800 years, but it can't be a coincidence that the moustache on his jolly roger looks exactly like it would've looked like if he ate the fruit (and then awakened it)... even if we know that nobody between the era of Joyboy from 800 years ago and Luffy in the present has ever awakened the fruit, Oda might have still drawn his jolly roger like that for a reason that is linked to that specific devil fruit...

Or I might be wrong and it doesn't have anything to do with it, but in that case the question still remains... why did he choose a jolly roger that is so different from him?

If Luffy’s current powers are an anomaly, that goes against the very logic of the One Piece universe? Then, shouldn’t his final form be Eldritch Happiness?

Luffy is rubber. He didn’t imagine it just cuz Shanks told him.

Chapter 1044 - The Gorosei - This is it. All the evidence needed. Straight from the people that knew the powers.

Chapter 1069 - Apparently people are getting confused by Vegapunk saying this.

They think he’s saying devil fruits with rubber abilities don’t exist. He’s not. He’s saying the gomu gomu no mi is not a real fruit. The name was made to cover up the Nika fruit. Think about it. If you were Imu would you rather have people thinking they got a god fruit or a goofy rubber fruit?
