Portgas D. Ace is one of the most iconic characters in One Piece who died at the battle of Marineford. The 2nd division commander of Whitebeard pirates, Ace’s tattoos were remarkable trademark features. The meaning behind Portgas D.

While the Captain of the Kid Pirates displayed his strength against Red-Hair’s fleet, the overwhelming strength and Haki of one of the Conquerors of the Sea were too much for him. Hence, he brought his adventure on the Grand Line to an end.
Some fans were content with how Oda-Sensei decided to bid farewell to one of the most notorious names from The Worst Generation. However, others have started to draw theories about how Shanks...

Demon Slayer is having an excellent season 4, with the fans absolutely loving the fight sequences and the animation. Jujutsu Kaisen had a great run during the end of 2023. Currently, these two are enjoying being at the top of the new generation of anime. But they might have to leave the first place for another fan-favorite manga, which has been headlining the internet since mid-2023.
Kagurabachi’s rise to fame has been exceptional. According to Manga Plus, the first few chapters of the manga were enough to help it enter the list of top ten most-read manga. While most people thought it to be a short-lived success, Kagurabachi proved them wrong and is enjoying a great run. There is also a rumor that it might get an anime adaptation soon.

Zoro is by far one of the strongest characters in Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece. He is a character full of potential and it only seems to grow the more the story progresses. As someone who has so much power within him, his goal is to become the greatest swordsman ever. To achieve that goal, Zoro is to defeat Dracule Mihawk once and for all.

He is a unique swordsman, using three swords against his opponent. This makes him a dangerous man, one whose bounty tells you all that you need to know. Although his goal may at one point become complete, the mystery remains of what after that. There is a possibility that Oda paves the way for Zoro’s legacy to go ahead even after his death.

Anime and manga of the Shonen trope are often defined by their protagonists, whether it is Kohei Horikoshi’s My Hero Academia or Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece. Your work is as strong as the character who stands in the center of it all. It is not just limited to Shonen alone, seeing that many formats of entertainment find themselves in a slump because of underwhelming protagonists.

To counter something like that, a powerful supporting cast is needed as balance. For works that come under Shonen, the presence of the main character becomes even more important. Projects like One Piece, Naruto, Jujutsu Kaisen, Bleach, etc. wouldn’t have worked if their main characters did not have such a strong presence. In an attempt to make his work different, Horikoshi toyed with Deku’s own sketch.

Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War arc brought back the smiles on the faces of the fans. Tite Kubo’s magnum opus last aired in 2012 and then went on a long hiatus. After ten years, the anime finally returned with the final season. Along with the new season, the old band of voice actors got together. The Thousand Year Blood War arc has been a treat for the fans.
Apart from the fans, the creator of Bleach also seems to be enjoying his magnum opus, too. Even though he was involved with most of the things, he overlooked a simple thing. It was his family that pointed it out to him. Ichigo Kurosaki’s voice actor, Masakazu Morita, gave the protagonist a much-needed change in his voice, which went perfectly with the scenario.

The unprecedented power of Red-Haired Shanks was recently witnessed by One Piece anime fans when the Emperor of the Sea decided to one-shot Eustass Kid and his crew in Elbaf. Fans have been waiting for Shanks to make some kind of move in the One Piece story that would reflect his powers as one of the strongest characters in the entire series.

What makes him strong is not only his terrifying Haki abilities but also the fact that even with a single arm, he managed to reach the level that many pirates can only dream of. But he did not lose his arm in a battle, but while saving Luffy from a Sea King. Because Shanks is a mysterious character, fans believe that Shanks saved Luffy for his ulterior motives.

Spoiler Alert!One Piece Episode 1112
The One Piece anime recently shocked the anime industry with the release of episode 1112 on July 14, 2024. The episode featured the battle between the Red-Haired Pirates and the Kid Pirates. Both Kid and Shanks are two of the strongest characters in the world, and fans expected that their second fight would be more interesting and entertaining.

However, while the fight certainly displayed their strengths, it took Shanks a single attack to destroy Kid along with him and his crew. This in some ways disappointed the fans, as Eiichiro Oda did not give much room to Eustass Kid and his crew, who were one of the most important characters during the Wano arc.
Although some One Piece fans are not happy with Oda’s way of bidding farewell to Kid Pirates, it is nothing compared to a comment that the mangaka...

The island of Laughtale has been one of the biggest mysteries in One Piece. There have been fan theories upon fan theories just to explain the reason behind its existence. Of course, Gol D. Roger’s reaction after reaching the place has been the centre of attention.
Why did the Pirate King laught at the place? What is the treasure and why is it funny? All of these questions are yet to be answer, but one fan theory tries to debunk everything and interlinks the poneglyphs with Laughtale and everything in between.

Shanks is one of the most powerful pirates in One Piece and his Divine Departure has once again set him apart from the masses. However, this stark power difference proves that Ace could have prevented some major events from happening.
The tragic event at hand is Ace’s death. Ace’s death at Marineford devastated Luffy and was a major turning point in his life. However, a fan theory states that Shanks could have easily saved Ace, but chose not to do it.

Dragon Ball is one of the trailblazers in the Shonen genre and is a household name at this point. But did you know that when it first debuted, Akira Toriyama had no intention of making it a typical action-oriented series?

Eiichiro Oda has always been one for foreshadowing. Luffy’s Gear 5, when it was first introduced, became one of the most impactful moments in One Piece. The power that was exuded by him easily made his moment one that was cherished by fans all around the world. While many would wonder if Gear 5 to be the last form, that may not be the case. Out of some of the most powerful characters, Shanks is another name that stands out, one perhaps right next to Luffy.

Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece is more than 25 years old, yet there seems to be no stopping for him. He has maintained his top spot even with all the popular modern anime. Considered as one of the Big Three of anime, One Piece follows the story of Monkey D. Luffy who wants to become the King of the Pirates. After so many years, it is still the apt description of his magnum opus.
Even though One Piece is one of the most popular anime on the planet, there always seem to be criticisms lurking around it. One of the biggest criticisms is that the fans believe Oda sensei follows the same template in all of the arcs. But with the Egghead arc, it might change soon, as it holds a twist in comparison to his former templates.

If on a random day, Eiichiro Oda confirmed Crocodile to be Luffy’s mother, no One Piece fan would find themselves to be surprised. The theory has been one that fans have found themselves pondering over for the longest time. Out of all the secrets the author has been hiding, one about Luffy’s mother has gotten every fan to scratch their head.

His father has been an active figure of the story for a long time but even the mention of his mother seems to be slim. As a result, the theory of Crocodile being Luffy’s mom made a surprising surge in popularity. It isn’t just something about his being Luffy’s mother that may be interesting but rather what compelled him to allegedly change his gender in the first place.

There are several rivalries in anime, but Eiichiro Oda and Masashi Kishimoto’s is the most iconic in real life. They began their magnum around the same time and both paved the way for modern anime and gained massive popularity. Even though they were rivals, they always cared and held each other in high respect. While Naruto Uzumaki fulfilled his dream a few years back, Monkey D. Luffy is still chasing his.
The One Piece creator and Naruto creator have often praised each other and added subtle details in their magnum opus celebrating the other. When Naruto: Shippuden concluded, Kishimoto sensei did not forget about his rival and paid him tribute in the most adoring way possible.

One Piece has had several mysteries over the years. While some were revealed by Eiichiro Oda, others led to the creation of fan theories. Due to One Piece’s plot branching out in all directions with the massive number of characters, several interesting fan theories have come up over two decades. The Wano arc proved to be a stepping-stop in Monkey D. Luffy’s journey to become the Pirate King.
The arc saw Roronoa Zoro wielding one of Kozuki Oden’s two swords, Enma. Even though he was an able swordsman, Zoro had a lot of problems wielding one of the 21- Special Grade Swords. At one point, it almost drained his entire Haki and turned his right hand into a skeleton form. It gave rise to the fan theory surrounding the Special Grade Swords requiring some hefty fees from its users.

Donald Trump was injured in an assassination attempt at a rally on July 13, 2024. The shooting took place at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Trump was campaigning as the Republican presidential candidate.
Despite sustaining injuries, video footage captured Trump raising his fist in the air before being escorted away by security.
The Secret Service and Trump’s campaign later confirmed that the former president was safe.
Following the incident, social media erupted, where netizens compared Trump’s fist-pumping gesture to one struck by All Might after a victory over his arch-nemesis, All For One.
Mha‘s All Might wasn’t the only anime character that Trump got compared to. His fist-pumping gesture was said to be similar to that of Goku Ssj 3.
Other anime references included Zoro from One Piece, which portrayed the presidential candidates resilience in standing up even after getting shot.

Mha‘s All Might wasn’t the only anime character that Trump got compared to. His fist-pumping gesture was said to be similar to that of Goku Ssj 3.
Other anime references included Zoro from One Piece, which portrayed the presidential candidates resilience in standing up even after getting shot.

As if Assassin’s Creed Shadows did not have its fair share of criticism already, another has been added to the list that could be a big issue. The upcoming samurai protagonist in the game, Yasuke, has been facing a fair amount of backlash on the grounds of forced diversity.
That topic is subjective, and what seems like pushing a narrative to some may seem like a non-issue to others. However, the recent reported misdeed from Ubisoft could be far more cut-and-dry, if proven true. Not only has the studio been accused of stealing art, it has done so from one of the most beloved anime in history!

One Piece has some of the most recognizable characters in all of anime, all thanks to the wacky and charming art style of Eiichiro Oda.

Shanks, the captain of the Red-Haired Pirates and the supposed mentor of Monkey D. Luffy, has been a mystery since the beginning of One Piece, but lately, he is making his presence felt in the story. Not only did he help Luffy during the Wano arc, but he also brutally took down Eustass Kid during a battle in Elbaf village.

While he is making a move, his intentions are still unclear to One Piece fans, who have been waiting to find out more about the character. Some fans believe that he is the guiding figure who is following the orders of his former captain, Gol D. Roger, to get Joy Boy into One Piece, while others believe that he is an evil villain who is hiding his true intentions.

Back in the day, when prominent anime series like Naruto, One Piece, and Dragon Ball were broadcast as TV shows, they would follow the trend of crossovers to not only provide an additional episode but also keep the fans entertained. These crossovers were quite famous among anime fans as they displayed a narrative where their favorite characters from different series worked together.

These crossovers were not only used for TV shows but also for other aspects like advertisements, brand promotions, commercials, etc. Recently, an old commercial crossover between Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece and Akira Toriyama’s Dragon Ball Z surfaced back on the internet, giving a nostalgic feeling to anime fans.

One of the hottest topics for discussion regarding One Piece is whether the Straw Hats will receive another member. There have been multiple options and fans are still debating between them. Eiichiro Oda is still keeping everyone in the dark about whether the Straw Hat Pirates are completed or not, but that won’t stop fans from theorizing.
Some of the top contenders for the spot have been Vivi, Jewelry Bonney, and Yamato. And it looks like one of them will be returning to the crew at the right time.

The invaluable treasure that belonged to Gol D. Roger and before that to Joy Boy, The One Piece, has taken fans on a 30-year-long journey through the perspective of the future Pirate King, Monkey D. Luffy, and his crew. However, even after so long, the Straw Hat Pirates and the fans have not been able to find the One Piece.

In a recent interview, Eiichiro Oda revealed that he initially declined an offer to adapt his one-shot Monsters into an anime more than a decade ago.
Oda recounted that more than ten years ago, during either Jump Festa or an Anime Tour, he received an offer to animate Monsters. However, he turned down the offer, as his primary concern was that fans of One Piece might not appreciate a standalone story from his early career.
“…way back before this adaptation happened, more than 10 years ago, was it at Jump Festa or an Anime Tour? There had been an offer to animate Monsters. But I declined it at that time. I thought it wouldn’t be fun to show the audience, who were looking forward to One Piece, something I created when I was younger (Lol).“

When the Wano arc started, One Piece fans were hopeful that they would get to learn about two major mysteries from the One Piece narrative. The first one was Roronoa Zoro’s lineage, and the second one was the legacy of Shimotsuki Ryuma. While the fans eventually got to learn about Zoro’s lineage through Sbs, Ryuma was not much mentioned in the Wano arc.

However, Eiichiro Oda decided to surprise One Piece fans when Monsters: 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation was announced as an anime, as it followed the story of Ryuma during his prime years and had a connection to One Piece’s Wano storyline. But initially, Oda was against the idea of adapting Monsters into an original net animation.
Recently, in an interview, Oda talked about Monsters: 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation and why he was not ready for the One Piece prequel to be adapted.

Spoiler Alert!Spoiler Warning for One Piece chapter 1120
With the release of the spoilers for One Piece chapter 1120, Eiichiro Oda might have confirmed the next member of the Straw Hat Crew. For a long time, there has been speculation among One Piece fans that Luffy and his crew are going to need an additional member, and according to recent events, it looks like it might be Lilith, one of Vegapunk’s Satellites.

The latest update in the series has revealed that Lilith might be the only Vegapunk satellite who is left alive and on the side of the Straw Hats, with York helping the Five Elders. If Oda moves forward with the idea of Lilith being a Straw Hat Pirate, it will not only bring a big change to the crew but also make them much stronger than before.

One Piece entering the final saga is proving to be a good thing for fans, as they are finally getting the answers to the many mysteries that Eiichiro Oda has embedded in the story. One such mystery is Crocodile’s Secret, which is only known to Emporio Ivankov and hasn’t been talked about in a long time.

However, this has not stopped fans from devising theories to find out what Crocodile’s biggest secret is. And now fans have combined this secret with Crocodile’s inability to use Haki techniques to make it sound more reasonable and logical. One such theory that has recently surfaced on the internet has a rickety idea as to why Crocodile doesn’t use Haki.
While this theory does sound intriguing, other fans do not agree with it in the slightest. This is why they have started formulating...

Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece is one of the most popular Shonen series in anime history and has been airing since 2005. Part of the show’s popularity is how the story emphasizes the themes of adventure and freedom using Monkey D. Luffy, who is on a journey to fulfill his dream of becoming the Pirate King.

However, some fans have claimed that Oda-Sensei might have been focusing on something deeper than showcasing the adventure of Luffy and his Straw Hat Pirate Crew.
Recently, a fan theory has emerged on the same, stating that the Shonen series might have a deeper and darker meaning to its core than just inspiring its global audience.

The Straw Hat Pirates’ progression from a low-level pirate crew to the youngest Yonko group in One Piece is the consequence of not only adventures, battles, and parties, but also the sacrifices made by many other characters for the crew. Characters like Pedro, Ace, Going Merry, etc. have given their lives so that Luffy and his crew can keep moving forward.

This is why Luffy has made sure that their sacrifices do not go to waste by doing everything in his power to achieve his dream. He has battled warlords and emperors, and now he is fighting against the strongest villains in the story: the Five Elders. His attempts to escape Egghead Island have been laid to waste as the ship has been attacked by Nusjuro.

With each passing day, Eiichiro Oda’s magnum opus, One Piece, is reaching new heights. The anime series has been airing since 1999 and has earned widespread recognition not only in Japan but also all over the globe. One of the key reasons that the series has been so well-received by the fans is that Oda-Sensei has presented a hilarious and an adorable protagonist in the form of Monkey D. Luffy.

However, the mangaka has masterfully showcased Roronoa Zoro as the formidable second protagonist in the series. Well, that’s what the fans of the Shonen series have been thinking for so long, believing that it was his unwavering determination to be the world’s greatest swordsman that made him a secondary main character.
However, all the delusions of the fans have been cleared, as Oda-Sensei has commented...

The swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates has had many cold moments in One Piece, but every fan fell in love with him during the Thriller Bark arc when Zoro decided to sacrifice himself and his dream in order to save his captain’s life. This was the moment when fans understood Zoro’s loyalty to Luffy and what he was willing to do to make Luffy the Pirate King.

While Zoro did not lose his life, he did get to experience Luffy’s extreme pain and agony that he suffered on Thriller Bark, and despite all that, ‘nothing happened’ to him. This exact moment led to Zoro becoming one of the most popular characters in One Piece, surpassing his long-term crewmate rival, Vinsmoke Sanji.
Many believed that, just like Zoro, Sanji could have also taken Luffy’s pain and survived. This became a...

The dark Shonen genre might have become a common theme nowadays, but initially, it was explored by Sui Ishida’s Tokyo Ghoul. Released in 2011, Tokyo Ghoul follows the story of Ken Kaneki, who becomes a half-ghoul and tries to manage his life while working with the authorities in order to save the world from the terror of ghouls.

Tokyo Ghoul is considered one of the best manga series of all time, especially for the dark genre. However, the series did not have much luck with the anime adaptation. While the first two seasons of the Tokyo Ghoul anime were instant hits, the third season completely butchered the dark-tone narrative of Ishida’s best work.
Last year, Ishida got a chance to talk about Tokyo Ghoul, and it was then that the manga creator made a startling revelation about the series. Not only did Ishida discuss the success of the series,...

When Tite Kubo’s Bleach started serializing, it became quite famous among the manga community. The popularity of the story reached so high that not only did the manga get an anime adaptation, but it became one of “The Big Three” and inspired many manga artists who used Bleach as a reference for their own works.

However, as the story progressed, Bleach and Kubo got engulfed in controversies of all kinds. Be it fan service or the animation of the series, all of the blame was put on the mangaka. But the biggest controversy that the manga had to go through was its ending. When Bleach ended, Kubo was criticized a lot by fans for rushing the ending.
Many believed that because the anime series ended before the manga, Kubo had to rush the ending, which left many plotholes and thus destroyed the image of...

Tite Kubo’s magnum opus Bleach is considered one of the most popular anime and manga series that was once a part of the renowned trio known as The Big Three. The series has certainly lived up to its hype, featuring gripping storylines, characters, and iconic fight scenes that would get its viewers to bite their nails as they anticipated the next scene.

The series is filled with a ton of intriguing concepts like the Soul Reapers, Quincies, and a balanced power system, making it a real work of art. As a result, the Thousand-Year Blood War is considered to be a masterpiece that met a lot of praise.
However, the manga artist decided to make a massive change in the manga that the anime series managed to avoid, as it would have brought the plot’s momentum to a standstill.

When it comes to the Big 3 of Shonen manga and anime, One Piece, Naruto, and Bleach have been reigning as the long-time holders of that position. No one has yet replaced them and the chances of it ever happening seem less than likely. It wasn’t luck that brought them to the top but so many other factors that fans seem to forget more often than not.

The way they have established themselves is unlike any other. The very thought of certain anime and manga replacing them seems more so absurd than possible. There are many of those who rise in fame, their impact extraordinary but they stand out on their own, none comparing to the Big three. Shows like Attack on Titan, Death Note, Hunter x Hunter, and many more came and went but none of them were able to measure up...

Hiding Easter Eggs within a manga or an anime is quite common among creators, but none of them do it as well as Eiichiro Oda. Oda has been hiding Easter eggs and foreshadowing important information that fans are hardly able to get, but this is what makes the story exciting and attracts fans to watch it again and again.

One Piece Easter Eggs are generally characters, hidden messages from the mangaka, references to other shows and series, etc. However, the biggest Easter egg that Oda has been including in One Piece is the infamous Pandaman. Pandaman is probably the most popular crowd character within the One Piece fandom.
Although Pandaman has become a noticeable aspect, there are other easter eggs that Oda has hidden inside One Piece, but fans have not been able to figure them out till now. One of these Easter eggs that...

Spoiler Alert!The following article contains spoilers for the Egghead Arc!
It has been 25 years since Eiichiro Oda’s magnum opus One Piece began airing. The long-running story is finally nearing its end. The majestic journey of Monkey D. Luffy and his Straw Hat Pirate Crew might be closer to ending their incredible adventure.

With the series becoming more serious and Oda-Sensei returning some of the fan-favorite characters, there are some major character flashbacks and tragic moments. However, that is nothing in comparison to what is to come,...

Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece might be the most popular anime and manga series that the world has seen. The immaculate popularity of the Shonen series has cemented its legacy, and it was previously part of The Big Three, featuring Naruto and Bleach as the other two names that once reigned alongside each other.

Although Oda-Sensei showcases the story of Monkey D. Luffy’s thrilling journey to become the King of the Pirates, he also focuses on other characters in the series. While any series’ protagonist is extremely popular, there are very few names that feature side characters who have an equal, if not greater, fan base than the main character.
