The One Piece IS REAL! - One Piece | Episodes 484 - 487 Reaction

I like how Blackbeard still had respect for White Beards last words. He is so chaotic, but is also a pirate who believes in chacing dreams like Luffy.

the voice actor of lafitte just passed away. rip

You'll notice several times from white beards on-screen presence where his crew protected his back. Even Jimbei protected his back to make sure that no one scarred him there. They called it his pride. I think if I remember correctly. One more thing that just came to me as well. Even when Squard betrayed whitebeard He did not stab him in the back.

I actually haven't heard the doctorate in law joke, lol. We did know his moniker is "Surgeon of Death" so the doctor bit checks out, though it was still a surprise. The morality of the show is really interesting, and is showcased well here. We've seen good marines like Smoker and T-bone, and bad marines, like you know, Akainu mowing down people who are just retreating. The civilians however are more likely to remember pirates as being evil because one bad pirate visit to their island can be traumatic and will automatically equate pirate = evil after that, hence the cheering at Whitebeard's death. Add in government propaganda (even here there were times where Sengoku was saying to shut the broadcasts) and you have a civilian population that mostly believes in the World Government's justice. It's interesting to think about for sure. Marineford continuing to deliver banger after banger and hyped for the next video because it's no different.

I remember when I heard the line "there is no scar that he got while running away" for the first time. I sat there looking at the "to be continued" screen for like a solid 5 minutes just in awe

Obligatory comment for any anime-only: Whitebeard didn't lose his moustach in the manga when fighting Akainu... he lost part of his face. The anime censored and had him get a second hole just above the first. But it goes to show how much of a monster Whitebeard was. You said in a previous video, but if you have the opportunity, read this arc. Oda style in the manga is not for everyone, but he went above and beyond during Marineford.

I read this chapter in manga in my native language that had really good translation editor notes for many things like accents, laughs and untransable lines etc. The quality is extremely good and I have noticed that the English translation lacks a lot of finer details. For Blackbeard's tremor tremor powers, he states along the lines of "This is the real power(/reason) why I wanted this fruit." It always gave me impression that he heard the abilities of dark dark fruit and immediadly thought of getting multiple powers and that's why he was looking for the fruit. I can't state that the translation is 100% accurate since I don't understand written japanese but knowing the translator, I would lean on that this was at least hinted in japanese. Other editor tibbits: Boa Hancock is speaking in regal japanese that is reserved only to japanese royal family. Akainu also is speaking in very heavy accent. Don't remember if it's hokkaido but apparently it gives sometimes difficult to understand affect like scottish does in english as comparison.

"Free his crewmates" makes it seem those prisoners were always on Blackbeard's crew. He went to Impel down to recruit new members.

A really cool thing about Whitebeard shouting that the One Piece is real is that Luffy didn't hear it himself which fits with him not even wanting to know if it exists when Usopp asked Rayleigh back in Sabaody

People leave their families and head to sea. Whitebeard heads to sea and finds family.

Now that we reached THAT episode, I would like to bring a small info about Blackbeard. The name of the real English pirate known as Blackbeard is... Edward Teach. One Piece has a Edward Newgate (Whitebeard) and Marshall D. Teach (Blackbeard).

Look up white beard vs akainu in the manga half of white beard face was gone

I'm not sure but I think whitebeard never used his fruit against the ground and I think it's because his subordinates were present and it would affect them too. Still, you could already see his power with just the collateral damage hahaha.

57:23 I think the reason why akainu keeps calling luffy dragons son is maybe akainu and dragon have history together, just a theory. hes not calling him "garps grandson"

52:09 you were talking about morality and how pirates arent good or bad and the marines arent good or bad. you are correct, doflamingo says the exact same thing in this arc of what you just said "Pirates are Evil? Marines are righteous? These terms have always changed throughout the course of history! Kid's who have never seen peace and kid's who have never seen war have different values! Those who stand at the top determine what's wrong and what's right! This very place is a neutral ground! Justice will prevail you say? of course it will! Those who win the war, become the Justice!" since the marines and world government are at the top, what they determine is good is good. I think the world government at the end will be the final boss maybe and topple the government to fix the morality through our POV

Also the fact that now Blackbeard has both the Darkness powers and Quake powers is so insane, especially when previously it's been so clearly established that people can't have two powers.

Oda said if Akainu was the protagonist he would've found OP in a year

man by the end of this I wish you finished the rest of the ep in one sitting... I donta wanna wait till wednesday!! haha

Love your Inazuma love! Can't wait for more!

Whitebeard is my favorite anime character
