How did Kobi not get turned to stone? Either a huge conqueror haki stops it or it is like Hancock says and it only works on people who can't resist her beauty.

At sword-fighting, yes. He's the world's strongest swordsman. But I doubt he's got the bonkers CoC that Shanks has.
We all know who the strongest character in the manga is. It's clearly the sea king that took Shanks' arm.

Zoro proves coc is part of sword skills

And you don't have to wait fifteen years to see those characters again. What a treat.

Geez you can really tell we're near the endgame now. Oda is dropping BIG stuff almost weekly!

Closing to 300 episodes! About to begin the big fight in Water 7.
It took it's time with the build up for this fight. Nico's backstory alone was 4-5 episodes. But worth it.
Starting this in August seemed scary but it seems I will catch up within a year.
Quick question. Is it safe for me to play the upcoming game in January?

Think it'll spoil future arcs for you from where you are now so probably not.

I still need to start odyssey. Manga has been dropping bombs lately

These latest chapters have done some MAJOR lore drops! Also cover art confirms Yamato female again

And Kiku male, arguably. Not sure why Oda even punished himself with that whole gender stuff in Wano. Maybe he enjoys walking on eggshells, or he's actually just a massive troll

I'm gonna go with troll lol. People always read WAY more into One Piece and infer stuff that isn't there. It's like they can't understand wtf a story told without political messages as its primary purpose is.
Also the hype around the Drums of Liberation episode is looking pretty awesome. Might have to avoid it till dub like I did with DB Super though. Really happy with the pace the dub has been going at recently and actually gotta catch up a little (anime pacing is still ass though).

Egghead arc seems not too far from wrapping up. Am excited to see where this goes.

It's really crazy how MUCH they're introducing right at the end. I guess Oda realized the navy wasn't too intimidating going against some of these crazy pirate crews so it was kinda like he needed to make some crazy strong endgame people
Though Blackbeard will Probably kill them all and be the final villain though I kinda want it to be IM

Yamato just wants the freedom Oden had, not what he had in his pants.

Exactly! Plus it's kind of a running/pervy gag that people took as some gender statement hilariously lol

lol In any case, while I anticipate Yamato to meet up with Luffy again like how Vivi and Jinbe were set up to do, I’m interested in what depth Yamato will gain in the meantime.
Yamato could def use some more emotional depth, realized purpose, and a more distinct character from Oden. Yamato did already seemed to be progressing in being willing to stay behind even though Oden would have sailed out right away, so Yamato already seems on the path of growing out of the Oden impersonation and maturing as a character in general.
The cover story talks about Yamato going on a pilgrimage, which I understand are a sort of spiritual journey that can involve a person’s self-discovery, so I think it only makes sense Yamato’s journey involves Yamato learning more about one’s self and developing from there.

Chapter 1112 - Looks like we might get Vegapunk's message by next chapter.

Yeah though they left the robot angle hanging for now. Revealing all these new villains and having them get countered by one crew kinda immediately hurts their threat tho lol
