Volume 65 Prediction Thread

Ooh... can't wait for kid Admiral merchandise...

What Doke no Buggy said. WTF is ダイャ? Whatever it is, it's not the same as ダイヤ. Stop making things up.

This. You can't just randomly shrink a katakana and have it still be a valid word, let alone the same word. End of discussion.

Section 1

Someone wrote 'underwear 3,787 times across three postcards and Oda counted....

........

*sigh*


Inside Camie's backpack lie: dreams, soy sauce & butter.


He confirms that Hachi and Hyozo went to the same dojo but Hachi couldn't match Hyozo and that he is the one Hachi mentioned way back. derp.


Section 2

i'm assuming you've all seen the 'new' crew jolly rogers on merchandise. If not, please let me know and I'll get them for you since they're readily available over here. Anyway, I largely ignored them seeing as how they royally fucked up the original crew marks while ignoring Oda. It turns out THIS TIME they came to him for approval and he said, "This is totally off!", and corrected them to his liking. So what you see on the merch for the post-timeskip jolly rogers are correct.

Oh! Do be wary of Luffy's though! His is exactly the same. So if it looks different anywhere, don't buy it.



Wow...Oda's repeating himself here. Someone asks why he chose to make his hero a rubber person since it seems so weak, unlike many other main characters. He gives the same response he gave years ago, he chose the weirdest ability (fruit) possible because he couldn't stick with the story if he was really cool and strong. If the story gets serious he can just start stretching or blowing up and start messing around.

Section 3



Mermaid names!!! Pic on Facebook page for now:
From left to right (spellings NOT official):
Ishilly- Striped Beakfish-type
Kairen- Flounder-type
Hilameyla- Halibut-type
Seyla- Marine Angelfish-type
Mello- Smelt-type

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS INTERESTING AND FINALLY REVEALS PRECISELY WHY ODA DOESN'T HAVE LUFFY SAY 俺　or 'ore' in kanji, only hiragana!!!!!!

A fan asks why Oda always wrote 'taiyou' or 'sun' in katakana when the Fish People (Mermaids, Mermen and Fish Men & Women) were talking about it. He says he didn't do it intentionally but it just came naturally. He explains that to write a lot of kanji in the lines of a fairly dim character (ie Luffy!) would be out of place and conflict with their persona. Whereas in this case, they don't really understand what the 'sun' is so they express it in a written expression that (in Japanese) is largely reserved for 'foreign' objects, people, places etc. I actually got that impression myself when reading but this finally makes his stance clear on Luffy and is indeed intended to augment his child-like nature.

YOWZA!


Section 4.


There's a mistake in the question and I need to research it for the finer point which I don't have time for but someone asks why Oda is making t-shirts that describe the current scenario on background characters. He says it's because he enjoys it and he's into it right now. This is the part I need to research but he SEEMS to suggest that older Fish People had many fins. More on this later.


Weird question about being tied up and what kinda face you should make when in such a position....Just gonna leave that....



Section 5

Fan asks who he considers a rival from the series and suggests Franky. He says Nami since they probably have similar bust and waist measurements.

Shirahoshi's birthday is April 4th. Gag etc.


Important question and I'm OUT OF TIME so I will cover it later but in short, someone asks how many people Shanks could knock out with Haki and Oda suggests that Shanks could 'probably' have knocked out ALL 100,000 attackers at the assault in the Fish Man Island arc. He says it's not a matter of numbers though. He goes on and I GOTTA GO! BYE

[black-leg jex]

so wait the post time skip jolly rogers that we saw ages ago were oda approved or that there are new ones that oda has approved of?

[Squirrel]

Where can I find those jolly rogers?

[CCC]

Oda's cover jacket blurb:

It goes into the bunker because I'm thinking that I don't want to send it there.
Rather, I aim to hit it into the bunker and then, against my expectations, it doesn't.
The iron I like... it'd have to be the 5 iron.
But lately I haven't been that good with the putter...
Golf.
I've never played it but~~!!!
As an adult I really want to...
Let's start volume 65! Nice on!

[Skadi]

loicos, i love you x3

HAHAHA!! Oh, Oda.

Inside Camie's backpack lie: dreams, soy sauce & butter.

Are the dreams edible?

Everyone knew this by now. Dee-da-dee.

I do like most of the new time skip jolly rogers, but this is good to know anyway.

Hmmm, must be a new reader..
I thought Oda didn't answer questions that he already answered previously.

[Baou Zakurga]

Awwwww,Akainu is such an adorable little psychopath!

I don't get what the other two admirals are doing.I mean,I can see their clothes,etc...but does it have some type of meaning,or something,like a japanese-culture reference?

Credits go to greg of course.

Well at least we got the kid admirals. Is that all of the sbs?

I'm guessing DF names will be revealed in due time in the manga. Honestly, if people can't figure out obvious details for themselves then that's their problem. I don't see why Oda needs to point them out.

That part about Shanks was interesting though. I'm really curious about how CoC works. I think Oda is trying to say that someone like Shanks could knock them all out because all their wills are too weak to withstand his CoC, whereas with Luffy only half were too weak to withstand it. Maybe. Another point is that even the pirates on Whitebeard's ship were passing out from Shanks' haki.

I think it also means luffy cant focus all of his CoC (lol) on everyone. I feel like it has to do with power and focus as well. Remember when luffy unintentionally took out pirates in the war? Something like that.

Are you talking about the Admirals' DF names? They were already revealed in a SBS

http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/SBS_V...10.2C_Page_138

Other than that, Usopp's jolly roger. It's fully sideways now. Not sure if I like it or don't. By itself it looks awesome. With the rest it doesn't look like it belongs.

I'm guessing there's several aspects of it like power, duration, AOE and focus. When Shanks displayed his CoC (lol) it wasn't just a short burst but rather it was turned on (lol) and then off. Plus it even cracked part of the ship.

Nah, I got those. I was referring to the VA's, marco & jozu, the supernovas, NW captains, ect. I'm sure they're being withheld on purpose.

[choperman]

we should really make a thread to post all the kid pictures we've got so many now, it'd be cool to have them all in one place for everyone to talk about

we've got CP9, Shichibukai, the Super Novas, The Elite Marines

is that all????

[King Cannon]

Calling it now. Next volume, flashback characters as kids.

Kid Shanks
Kid Bell-mère
Kid Banchina
Kid Zeff
Kid Hiluluk
Kid Saul
Kid Tom
Kid Yorki
Kid Kuina (lol)

[IgorGB]

So there was nothing useful this time? Come on, Oda.

EDIT: What about the first tankobon of Chopperman? Any news on the extras?

[Hisoga]

Now I think I can understand why Garp doing what he do to Luffy in order to rise Luffy as a great marine.. He grew up in the same place and environment and he became a great marine. so he did that to Luffy but the outcome is totally the opposite..haha

[Ashura_KingFisher]

I wonder if Garp got the scar in the same way as Luffy's (intentionally hurt his eye to proof himself).

Oh AP .
