Take a Long Walk Off a Short Pier [One Piece 1174]

Sun God Nika has finally revealed himself to—

♫It’s A Piece Of Cake To Bake A Pretty Cake♫

Thought I put my phone on silent. Yeah? A new clip of One Piece LA season 2! WHERE?!

AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love their dynamic so much! Straw Hat crew interactions are one of the best things about One Piece and it’s great to see it back.

Oh! Um… Sorry.

Sun God Nika’s back on Elbaph. Can’t wait to see everyone’s reaction, especially how Loki treats Luffy going forward. Will he join the Straws Hats? …Probably not. But he could join the Straw Hat Grand Fleet as an ally. Although, I have heard a theory from a knowledgeable Japanese One Piece fan that Loki may end up teaming up with Blackbeard!

That would be an interesting direction to take, and help cement the Blackbeard Pirates even more as final antagonists of the series. Plus, Teech is Rocks’ son, so I can see Rocks’ biggest fan joining forces with his overpowered, Celestial Dragon hating offspring to reap some serious chaos.

Loki’s a dragon. Fine.

Not excited to see another dragon devil fruit user but it fits Norse mythology. I guess it works on that level. Nidhogg is probably what Oda based his devil fruit—

♫It’s A Piece Of Cake To Bake A Pretty Cake♫

What now? …Are you SH*TTING ME?!

Yes! YES! YES! So awesome! Oh, I hope he can do the laugh. He’s got to, right?

Okay, sorry again. The Elbaph kids blaming themselves was sad, along with—

♫It’s A Piece Of Cake To Bake A Pretty Cake♫

Yeah? What? A new TV spot with exclusive scenes?!

Must. Resist…

Back to the chapter. T-the um kids and their… SCREW IT!

The kids fall to their death with their parents, very emotional. Sad. Sad. Sad.

Sommers is a sadistic bastard. Bad. Bad. Bad. I-hope-he-dies. DecentchapternowletswatchthatOnePieceTVspot!

YEAH!!!!!!!!!! So good! I love you, Smoker! Oh my goodness! Less than two-weeks to go! I can’t die before then. Food! Healthy food! I need fruits and veggies and cake. Oh, wait. No cake. Um, let’s see…beans, yogurt, cheeseburgers, soda…

Eiichiro Oda Visits Netflix’s One Piece Live Action Set [2D News]

Weeks ago, Eiichiro Oda—creator of the hit manga, One Piece—visited Netflix’s live-action One Piece set located in South Africa in order to “oversee production”, making sure the hit show doesn’t sway from Oda’s core vision.

And while that is indeed true, a source close to the cast and crew of the series, who wishes to remain anonymous, has come forth with the whole story.

According to this secret source, Eiichiro Oda was quite the fun guy while on set. Quote the source:

“It’s clear Mr. Oda hadn’t had a real vacation in years, so spent every available moment trying to get his party on. He really brought the energy up on set. It was wild!”

Maybe a little too wild, as the source when on to say throughout his visit, Oda reportedly took hundreds of goofy pictures of himself with the cast (for his own private collection to never be released), raced crewmembers in carts designed to drive around the showrunners and directors, and even took everyone white-water rafting on an off-day.

The snitching source also learned the very private Oda was talked into doing a “blink-and-you’ll-miss-it cameo” as a background marine officer in a Lougetown scene. Unfortunately, the scene had to be reshot without him due to Oda’s inability to stand after injuring himself at the previous night’s cast and crew after-shoot party where a rap battle contest and twerking contest were both held.

Oda received first place in one of the contests, but the source refused to answer in which.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson Won’t Join One Piece Live Action Due To Failed Contract Negotiations [2D News]

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Netflix’s One Piece Live Action showrunner Matt Owens both recently confirmed the superstar actor and wrestler will not be joining the cast in season two as Miss Monday, a member of Baroque Works. While no official reason has been given, 2D News sources have uncovered two big reasons as to why negotiations concluded.

The first reason being Dwayne Johnson’s insistence that Miss Monday had to win against Zoro in their battle. Most fans of The Rock know the actor hates losing fights on film, so it’s no surprise that was a non-negotiable requirement to joining the cast. Apparently, Matt Owens—during a conference call—asked Eiichiro Oda (creator of the One Piece manga of which the Netflix show is based on) if he’s okay with Zoro losing to Miss Monday.
