Chapter 908 Review, Predictions for 909

The Gorosei kneel before Im

 As I predicted in my last review of chapter 907, the Gorosei is NOT the highest authority in the world, and the shadow figure (named Im) is the one pulling the strings and sits on the empty throne!!!
 What else we learned?

The biggest princess meets the smallest princess
You know you have been around the world when your connections meet each other in your absence. Shirahoshi met her dwarf counterpart Manshelly.

The Reverie kicks off
With all 50 representatives present, the real G20 starts. Luckily, King Cobra was able to stir the conversation away about Luffy. Which makes me think they won't mention him during the real discussion.

Bartholomew Kuma
New information about Kuma surfaced! He was the former King of Sorbet Kingdom. This was not that surprising because it can explain the reason he joined the Revolutionary Army and opposed the World Government. What intrigued me however was his status of Shichibukai. This begs the questions:

One Piece Chapter 905 906 907 Reviews, 908 Predictions

Chapter 905

GARP
I have to admit that I was surprisingly happy to see Garp all joyous. I was very upset at him letting Ace die during the war of the summit. How could he? How in the hell is your job more important than family?
He is truly Luffy's grand father, a man who doesn't give a cent about protocols and has zero complex in dealing with royalty.
Today, I understand why he categorically refused promotion to become an admiral in the past. The higher you go past being a vice-admiral  in the hierarchy, you command more power and men, but your hands become tied to the Celestial Dragons. So knowing that, Garp knew this was the best position for him to do whatever he wanted to do, but also avoid being controlled by the Tennryubuto. How could he stomach a Buster Call? You need to be blinded by absolute justice to do that.
Although being a vice admiral, he HAD the moral obligation to be present at the war. It saddened him, but that  was his duty. Which also brings me to say that Garp ordered young Ace and Luffy to become marines because that would have been the only way to save them from the World Government when they grow older. So I really have to give Garp my respect once again.
I will come back to him further below.

ADMIRAL GREENBULL RYOKUGYUU
We knew the name, but now we know the silhouette and more about his personality. The last admiral is a

One Piece Chapter 904 Review 905 Predictions

Voila the top commanders of the Revolutionary Army!

North Army is commanded by Karasu who made a cameo at the end of the Dressrosa Arc when he summoned crows to pick Sabo up.

South Army is commanded by Lindbergh, possibly a mink

East Army is commanded by Belo Betty, the flag bearer of the Army. I think Oda was heavily inspired by Marianne, the lady who is supposed to represent liberty and France herself.

West Army is commanded by Morley, a giant okama, whose silhouette was featured on the epic moment Doflimengo asks WHO RULES THE SEA! His appearance was a let down for me though.

A Chapter 100% Revolutionary Army

We also saw Dragon who is about to make a declaration of war on the celestial dragons!
Sabo the Chief of Staff
Ivankov and her/his minions

Koala

 Peace til next chap which will probably focus on the reverie participants.

DRAGON AND SABO WILL DECLARE WAR AGAINST THE CELESTIAL DRAGONS

Chapter 900 901 902 903 Reviews! New Predictions!

The   1.5 Billion Berry Man

While awaiting to go check Avengers 3 Infinity Wars tomorrow, One Piece chapter 903 came out and it was a bang bang!

Chapitre 900    Chapitre 901   Chapitre 902

 Since I missed reviewing the past couple of chapters, here is a quickie highlight of the best parts!

One Piece Chapter 899 Review Chapter 900 Predictions

Aladin and co save Jinbei and Luffy

Still on their escape, my man Aladin came to help our heroes right before they got done in by Smoothie and her fellow mates. This reminds me of when Roger was saved by a freak storm when fighting Shiki the Lion (remember Strong World?)

One Piece Chapter 897 Review Chapter 898 Predictions

 Like I said countless times before, I knew Germa 66 would save them right after Sanji escapes with Luffy!
 

Nothing new really transpired, so I will keep this short with an extra colored snap! I wish I had seen more of Pekoms' transformation though. I guess that will be for chapter 898.

UPDATE HERE

One Piece Chapter 896 Review 897 Predictions

Katakuri is defeated

I loved Luffy's fight with Katakuri so much that I will need to revisit it. Though they were a perfect match up against each other, just like Luffy and Lucci, this time Luffy was able to stand up on his own after the rumble. The best part was Katakuri's animal reflex to stand up before Luffy could see him hugging the ground. Even better are these theories for the next chapter and chapters far far into the future:

1. Katakuri enjoyed fighting Luffy so much that he can't wait for ROUND 2 (I talked about this many times before). To meet a worthy opponent for the first time who actually evolved in the fight only to lose sight of them forever would have been too much of an heartbreak to handle. It seemed like he needed to

One Piece 895 Review Chapter 896 Predictions

Hello world
Chapter 895 came out in a form of a snake, but the battle is still heating up thanks to Luffy showcasing his Gear 4.5 Snake Man.

LUFFY
I wasn't blown away with Snake Man as much as Bounce Man, but this one packs a fast punch. The increasing speed on top of the stretch is what really makes it powerful. It's really like a laser beam. Focus, speed, and unpredictability is what makes Luffy Luffy.
The names of his attacks are so funny: Black Mamba (Kill Bill anyone?) and what we hope to see next week: King Cobra! Perhaps there will be a Viper or Anaconda creeping around.

KATAKURI
There was this one shot where Dogtooth truly resembled an hungry blooded eye snow wolf (300). What's still funny though is him still not getting Luffy's yonko class clumsiness. Who else can speak about hunger when sweeping the floor with Dogtooth (and Cracker by the way).

One Piece Chapter 892 Review Chapter 893 Predictions

Smoothie  x Cinnamon  x Citron

As expected, Sanji made it in time. Destruction was avoided thanks to Bege luring Big Mom away, but no one is safe yet.

Luffy got knocked the hell out once again because he IS AT HIS LIMIT, but this is necessary for him so that he could surpass himself. So chill and relax, Luffy will get back up and continue the fight for the next hour or so.

So the next chapters will be like this: EVERYONE is headin to Cacao's Island for one last huge royal battle between the Straw Hats assisted by Germa 66 VERSUS the Sweet Pirates (Oven, Smoothie, Cinnamon, Citron, etc.) while Luffy will conclude his fight with Katakuri.

By the time Big Mom gets back from

Chapter 887 888 Review

Love it when I'm right (read about the Minks true power)

For the past two chapters, we became aware of three things:
- Bege ain't that bad after all
- Select Minks can become SSJ3 under the full moon
- Luffy will surpass himself

That's really it. Carrot what a beauty!

Chapter 886 Review and Chapter 887 Predictions

Yo

 Carot's talk was a reminder to some, but told you a looooong time ago!
 You're about to wake up and smell the MINKS' true power under the full moon.

Oda-sensei keeps on unveilling more and more about the world of One Piece we didn't know about. First, back in Dressrosa he showed us the next level of mastering a DF called "Awakening". Secondly, he's telling you and me that most of the bad asses have already awakened their powers. Which brings us to the assumption that in order for Luffy to defeat Dogtooth aka Katakuri, Luffy will have to either:

One Piece Chapter 830 Review: Luffy and Jinbei

Jinbei declares his ambition to join Luffy and the Straw Hats

Hello fellow grand-line pirates! Since I'm quite busy on some travel preparations, bear with me if the next two reviews come late.
So One Piece 830 came out and it was great. Here is a super quick review (theories) for the chapter:

One Piece Chapter 829 Review: The Yonkou, Charlotte Linlin The Pirate Big Mom

One Piece Chapter 829 Big Mom

 As I stated in the review of the last chapter, King Kong ain't got sh*t on Big Mom! I think the only two highlights were Big Mom showcasing her powers, and Boss Jinbei finally appearing.  So here is a very short review of this chapter:

One Piece Chapter 827: Alice In Totland Wonderland

Totland, Big Mom's Territory

 Another week, another One Piece. Since there was not much action in it, I will try to make this one a quickie.

One Piece 826 Review: Family Ties

Yonji and Reiju Vinsmoke

After a long painful week without a new chapter, Oda served us finally with more information about Germa 66 in chapter 826. Sanji's siblings are finally revealed!

One Piece Chapter 825 Review: Family Affair

Germa 66 Appears

Pfff, finally free after spending two nights working on an application...  

One Piece Chapter 825 came out earlier than usual thanks to last week's Golden Week in Japan. Anyway, anyhow, let me offer some quick thoughts on this relatively short chapter:

One Piece Chapter 823 Quick Review: Reverie and Baltigo

823: Start of the Reverie

Yo!

We know for sure Vivi and co. are heading to the reverie.  This year's reverie will allow Vivi, Rebecca, and Shirahoshi to all meet for the first time. It seems the future now rests on the shoulders of princesses! 

They will most likely create their own princess band as an offshoot to the SH. Hopefully ODA will keep an eye on any development that happen with them. 

Chapter 820 Review - Marco The Phoenix

Wow there really was an overload of important clues and information disclosed by Oda sensei in chapter 820. Not that we dislike it; on the contrary, we love it! I believe the most important piece we got from this chapter is the clash between Marco The Phoenix and the The Black Beard Pirates which resulted in: 1) the defeat of Marco, and 2) Marshall D Teach being labeled as a Yonko. That's something I definitely wanna hear more about just like the clash between Aokiji and Akainu that also resulted in the defeat of Aokiji and his defection to the Black pirates.

Let's get down with the review of the chapter!
