If sex is so good, why isn’t it called One Piece?
God, Elbaf truly is the greatest arc to date, most likely only to be topped by the final arc. The best time to start One Piece is always right now.

Quin final de volum 🚬

This volume has one of my favorite flashbacks, one of my favorite Elbaph moments, but also some of my least favorite Elbaph moments. Without the latter, this would've easily been a 5/5.

I'm just going to leave an essay on what I have thought about One Piece till this moment.
I originally hated One Piece, if you told me 2 months ago that I would be saying “One Piece is possibly one of the best stories ever created,” I would not believe you. I read One Piece out of curiosity to see why it was popular. I assumed it was one of those shows people simply had to grow up on to like it. Additionally, I had never read any manga that’s even more than 500 chapters, so it was going to be a challenge for me. I felt as if I read over 1000 chapters of a story, it better be really good. That forced my expectations for One Piece to be even higher. If I did not read 1000+ chapters and learned how to fly by the end of it, then was it even worth my time?
But honestly I learned something better than flying. That was freedom.
For brief explanation, One Piece is a story written by Eiichiro Oda about finding the legendary treasure that was left behind, Gol D. Rodger, the previous pirate king. Whoever it becomes the new pirate king, but no one has any clue what the treasure is nor how to exactly find it. Pirates have to explore different islands in order to discover clues. Devil fruits are fruits that grant an individual power if they eat it, but it removes their ability to swim (this is a huge weakness as most of the One Piece planet is made out of water). Haki is a power system later introduced that is quite literally a form of aura achieved through hard work. There are different types of Haki, but it is not super relevant.
One Piece is about learning to be free. We are introduced into a universe that tells a story of pirates versus the marines. The marines represent the world government, and the pirates are more so representative of societal curiosity, resistance groups, or some pirate groups do have malicious intentions, just like people in the real world we see today. Our protagonist Luffy is someone who always has hope in others, and he’s disappointed and angry when others mistreat or do the wrong thing. He embodies true freedom by his lack of structure. There is no plan on how he’s going to become the pirate king. He simply just wants to adventure. Being is enough to achieve. There is no need to have to have a plan, as long as you live truly everyday as who you are, and you live by what you think is right, you can get anywhere.
One Piece covers a series of political topics, such as the dangers of nepotism, and why positions should be given by merit and not connection. People are cruelly punished by the system and given false promises for freedom by those who were not supposed to be in the system to begin with. Sure it is an adventure story for kids, but also a warning for when they grow up. It teaches you about the reality of human history and our world when you’re transitioning from childhood to adulthood. Additionally, I believe that’s why OP’s manner of being so ridiculous with the art style and the mannerisms in the manga works so well. It’s a story filled with hope to remind you that’s how your attitude should be against the corruption of the world if you truly want to be free.
Furthermore, it speaks about the bad habits of always viewing things from a materialistic perspective. Growing up having to always consider things from a value point of view, absolutely destroying a child's sense. It shows that a system like this makes us feel bad for not being fortunate, it makes the material world force its way to reflect your morals. “Am I not good enough because I do not have enough money to help those that I love? Does this make me a bad person?” Additionally, asking for help and relying on others becomes a huge message. Asking for help is not a weakness, it's a
strength. It's the strength that proves to others that there are people around you who love you and believe in you. One Piece solidifies morals are people based, morals show by choices you can make and not when you are battling the system.
One Piece also expresses that if it takes you to pretend to be better than you are to become better, then fake it till you make it. It's okay to accept that you in fact are not the best, or the strongest, it's okay to be scared and a coward. Even if you literally need to mask who you are to feel better and more confident in your abilities. It's OK to be scared.
To continue, One Piece has huge messaging on basic needs and human rights. Characters are willing to feed criminals and even possible enemies, because they believe eating is not a need that should be discriminated against. No matter the background, the status, or what someone did, they deserve food. Even the worst human being deserves basic needs. Where do we draw the line on business and greed when people's lives are at stake? Why does royalty matter in any way when lives are at stake? How detached from the world must one be to be arguing over if human beings like yourself deserve easy access to what could potentially save them?
A lot of sagas in One Piece show how the government likes to frame issues being caused by people when in reality it is instigated by the government itself, and not the people. When tactics such as fear, money, power are used over the people rather than love, passion, hope, and justice, there is no freedom. All those four positive qualities that were named is what Luffy represents and why he is free.
Additionally, one of my favorite sagas about One Piece teaches about letting go and handling your feelings when it seems to be that the world is against you. Letting go does not mean to forget your past or the issue that torments you, but rather acknowledging it, and moving on. Life will not progress if you do not choose to let go of issues, people, and past. People throughout history are made to believe by the world that they should die, that they are evil, and that they do not deserve to live. But is it fair for a government to decide who gets to exist? Who gets to speak about certain topics? If the
knowledge is out there and true, who is the government to stop the people from knowing their own world, culture, and history? Is it not a natural right to know the past of those who came before us? Standing up to the government is not only important for your own rights, voicing your concerns of what is going on in the world not only shows who you are, but it saves people who feel as if they should not exist, as if they are denied from the world itself, it makes them feel like they want to be in the sea freely. Learn to let go that the world denies you, and to hold onto a crew that accepts you.
There are more singular characters that teach about certain subjects, such as pretty privilege and misogyny. It shows that the men in the world and government of One Piece heavily underestimate women due to the fact that they are women. Misogyny is a tool used to minimize the value, efforts, and identity of women, however doing this makes you blind to women's possible strengths.
One Piece also highlights the issue in prioritizing your bureaucratic identity over what you as an individual think. There are people who are supposed to have your back, but they do not because they prioritize their own social status and the judgment of others before their own. Who cares if there are protocols, who cares if you are on the side that opposes the general identity of a person in front of you? What matters is what you think as an individual and not a collective.
To analyze even more, there are many social issues within the One Piece manga that highlight issues like racism. As silly as this manga may seem, it speaks to real world issues we have today. It makes no sense that someone who was related to someone who was previously in power gets the right to be above others to the point that it degrades their existence. One Piece really focuses on the power of the collective, but also highlights how one should build for themselves. Luffy not being afraid to challenge authority by straight up punching people who uphold immoral rules and politics. Luffy has no fear in unmasking individuals using religion in order to keep people whose biggest crime is being different, oppressed. What is brilliant about One Piece is that Luffy is not the only one spreading his freedom around, when he gets stuck in a bad place, his crew come and help him. The crew that he saved and helped get out of the dark , is now pulling Luffy himself to the light. Shockingly enough, once you are into consuming this manga, it actually starts to feel really short.
Furthermore, One Piece includes an array of villains who believe they are the supreme part of the race. Once they know that they are societally supposed to be respected as a God, they feel entitled to that status to become true. Again, time and time again One Piece may come off as silly, but it is genuinely trying to teach us about reality here masked with a bit of entertainment. It highlights how it is easy for humanity to be corrupt and on different sides from pure ignorance and the lack of experience, but this also applies to any side. It highlights how unfair history is, yet shows people how easy it is to exploit history to be on their side. However, reform and differing opinions is always possible.
Lastly, nations highlight that often worrying about traditional customs is just ridiculous when the people who are supporting a nation can barely get fed. One Piece emphasizes that if someone is different and it is not harming others, they should not be at blame for just existing. You do not have to look like what you want to be, you can simply start being. There is no need for a set structure, as long as you are being true to yourself and the world, you will get to where you want to be.
To conclude, there are many individual critics to go around for One Piece, but it is safe to say that I have subscribed to the idea of freedom and hope. Be yourself, surround yourself with those you pick, and don't forget to stand up for what you believe. I think that will make us all the future pirate kings!

And Imu has arrived—I can believe this moment was real.

August 18, 2026
On an exceedingly rare day, when lightning and snow combine, a vast beast will blanket the sky with its presence. And with the sound of the Drums of Liberation the Sun God will appear!
Much of the last volume was taken up by a lore-intensive flashback to the God Valley incident. This one ties that history into the present where it seems Luffy might actually be about to square up with the final boss! Of course, Imu and, if the pattern of prior arcs holds, Luffy will probably have to try to fight them three times before he wins, so I’m not expecting an end to this epic quite yet!
Last time, we saw Dragon We also saw King Harald declare, with tears in his eyes, Apparently deciding the only option is to double down, he Oh, and does Imu seem to perk up at that!
When we resume here, Harald is smashing up pirate ships as part of his “atonement” – not that that gets in Roger’s way of circumnavigating the world! – the Navy is recruiting its first giants (like the ones we saw at Marinefort). Meanwhile, Harald As you might expect, this goes poorly for him, leading to the events that result in Loki getting blamed for his death.
There are some more crazy Shanks reveals as well! I also just liked this little wholesome reference to Ace:
Shanks: “What? Captain Roger had a son?!...In that case, I guess he’s like a little brother to me!” Gaban: “You’re not wrong about that. You and Buggy were our sons.”
There’s a lot more good Norse Mythology references in this volume, from Thor’s hammer to the dragon Nidhoggr that gnaws the roots of the world tree and the squirrel Ratatoskr that carries messages between it and the eagles that live at the top of the tree. But everything is mixed and matched enough that knowing the original myth still won’t let you guess what’s coming! It seems like we might be about to learn more about the Will of D via the people of Elbaf, too, because Imu says:
I had my heart in my throat regarding the fate of the Dory and Brogy the whole time, especially during this exchange: Seriously, I dare you to say those two aren’t basically married! Thus, I was as aghast as Zoro when it turned out their solution was - but it worked! Another apparent remedy: Chopper Zoro asking if that works because he’s just that good a doctor was adorable, but I feel like there must be a deeper explanation. Though, heck, maybe his pledge to become the “universal medicine” he sought for Hiriluk is coming true! Regarding the giant children and the library
Regarding our crew:
Given that some fanboys seriously thought Sanji didn’t like Jimbei because the presence of a former Warlord of the Sea threw off his silly bounty competition with Zoro…I love that when a Holy Knight starts being racist about Fishmen, it is Sanji who immediately shuts that down and puts an Ifrit Jambe in his face!
It seems like we are about to get some interesting lore drops about Brook too, because he recognizes Gunko!:
And, in the outside world, it sounds like the Revolutionary Army’s siege of the Celestial Dragons is holding up – so that’s cool!
But, when fighting Luffy and Loki via Gunko, Imu seems to have realized something: Well, we don’t know, but it freaks Imu out enough for this to happen:
First off: “Power” being listed just as is NUTS. Second, he looks kind of like a hybrid between and .

Review of advance copy
volume 115: chapter 1167-1179
giants were recruited into the navy after the death of gold roger and the announcement of the one pice. harald was given access to the holy land. he just wanted elbaph to join the government. imu’s plan for elbaph isn’t aligning with harald’s. through harald, imu wants to enslave the giants. oh no, harald purposefully made loki tell the truth to the others: that he killed his own guards, that he used joining the world government as an excuse to do their dirty bidding and the world government lied to him. harald asked his son, loki, to kill him and be the king.
before loki struck down harald, harald told him “i love you too, son.” WHY AM I CRYINGGGGG
loki told the survivors that he will never tell the truth to the people outside. he wants to take revenge himself despite knowing that others will make him the villain in this story.
it’s finally back to current time and hajrudin knows the truth now. chief jarul broadcasted the truth to the people of elbaph.
brook and gunko know each other? seems like she was called shuri beforehand.
omg the loved ones hugging their babies as they fall off. MY HEART.
LOKI DRAGON FORM!! he ate the dragon-dragon fruit with the niddhoggr model. ice squirrel ratatoskr chose loki as its owner.
elbaph saw luffy in nika form.
franky is learning about a better fuel called sugar vega cola.
dorry and brogy cut their heads off and switched bodies so that they are no longer controlled.
THE BOOKS ARE GONE?
oh my god, i’m in chills. IMU’S REAL IDENTITY HAS BEEN REVEALED: king of the world, SAINT NERONA IMU. & he looks freaking cool.

i'm a very new fan of One Piece & i just caught up with the whole story. please be patient with me. i will dedicate this review to my reading journey with Luffy & his friends.
i'm just gonna say that i'm so grateful to still be around before the Straw Hats find the One Piece. i got to read the political outburst in Alabasta. i understood why Enel & Luffy made those faces in Skypiea. i went through whatever silly nonsense happen in Long Ring. i got to finally make sense of what happened during Robin's "I want to live!" moment, which locked her position as my favorite character in the entire story. i went through the pain of the disgusting sight of the Celestial Dragons exploiting slaves by riding them like horses. i had to witness Luffy's anguish, for a character so jovial & full of character, when his dearest brother Ace died. i was invested in the dynamics of how prejudice works from Fishman Island.
i remember the intimidation i felt going through Dressrosa, my first 100-chapter arc. God, i ended the arc feeling so satisfied. then there was Whole Cake, & i got to see my favorite narcissist Linlin shine in her glory. of course i had to tread through Wano, of course i was intimidated, yet i appreciated every minute of the challenge. i was deeply touched by Bonnie & Kuma's story, which really shows Oda's reflection as a father of daughters.
look at me now, Mom! i made it to Elbaph!! i still want to live to feel the afterglow when the Straw Hats find the One Piece!!

This volume is a reminder of why One Piece is my favorite weekly manga. In a single volume, we get an absurd amount of unforgettable moments:
The end of Harald’s flashback and the reveal of Loki’s true backstory
Loki’s fruit reveal
The Sanji, Franky, and Jinbei triple attack
Dorry and Brogy’s brutal double decapitation
Chopper countering Demi Reverse
And the Nerona Imu reveal
And that’s probably not even everything, I’m sure I forgot a few moments because there’s just that much packed in here.
One Piece hasn’t had a bad week in a very long time, and this volume proves why it truly deserves its place at the top.
Nothing particularly crazy was revealed in the SBS, but that’s not something I’m taking stars away for.

Finally getting to the semi-conclusion of the battle of the giants (not just Rocks, but the fantastic viking island of giants, themselves) was just as great as all the spoilers promised.
And the end? Damn it. Imu. Too many questions, never enough answers. And more questions on top of that.
Chopper? Super cola? Loki himself? All of it is just too cool.
I hate having to wait for another volume. ; ;
