Gorosei are ordered in human kind progress: (idk if this means something xd just saying) 1.- Agriculture: humans first discover agriculture 2.- Economy: settlements, sedimentarism, trade 3.- Justice: Now you have to set rules for the settlements 4.- Environment: Humans now dominate the environment 5.- Science: Start sitting down and thinking about science and progess
After so many years of listening to this disembodied voice, I just assumed he was one of the top one piece youtubers. Its wild thinking he is still growing as a channel.
He's not as consistent as others, which unfortunately is very important in this industry, because I think Joy boy is one of the best. He focuses on his book pretty often instead of TH-cam. Which reminds me I need to go buy the book lol
I grew up christian, and one of the quotes I was told was, "the greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world he doesn't exist." I think Oda may be playing on this saying with Imu.
I can’t lie that’s the issue with Christianity itself. There is too much that’s not even in the Bible that’s commonly considered cannon. Like what’s called hell was originally a place called Gehenna which was a real city. Also descriptions from Dante’s inferno are taken literally when it’s just a piece of fiction. In my opinion the entire New Testament is just a thing made up to control people. The Nicaean council didn’t have people’s enlightenment or best interest in mind. They just wanted control.
Oda shows the moon in many panels when Aokiji joined Blackbeard and when he introduced Blackbeard pirates officially in Mock Town, Blackbeard's past shown with moon in SBS as well.
I agree with basically everything here. The one this i have a difference with is that I think luffy is the sun, imu is the moon, and blackbeard is the dark emptiness of space. Luffy is associated with the sun because light and how you can only pursue your dreams while youre awake and take action. Imu is associated with the moon because of nightmares and how they happen during the night when light is low so your vision is manipulated much like how imu is manipulating the truth. And blackbeard is the greedy all consuming darkness that is trying to go after both the sun and the moon in its voracious appetite just like how darkness can encompass everything, blackbeard greed will never be sated until he has everything

They could have nika-ish abilities, just not as freely as the actual joyboy. Which means have more experience with their lesser nika abilities tho than actual joyboy. TOUGH fight for old hanuman
Luffy: The metaphrical Sun and represents liberation. Imu: Is like the Sun in a dessert, oppressive and is over a desolate land. Blackbeard: The Sun at the end of it's life, explodes, and turns into a black hole.

We can consider this as Sabo's greatest feat so far but I think the main reason for his escape is King Cobra's Sacrifice and second being the Gorosei mostly keep their powers and Imu's presence as a secret, so they didnt went all out against Sabo on purpose.. so that no one during the reverie can even barely notice them, though by now.... Wapol... Vivi and all those connected to these two know the truth by now 😂

i have been subscribed since i worked in a factory and needed a podcast basically back in 2018 why is it that i have not had 1 video recommended to me in the past 4 years not one have i seen
I have long thought that Imu can’t leave the Holy Land. It would make sense for him to make alters for him that could and carry out his will. Especially when it seems likely that the Void Centuary meant they lost their friends that were meant to do so.
As it stands now i would guess 3 things: 1. What the video was about from the "Imus alters" theory 2. Or i would guess that they are actual demons from a time gaining this power by forming somesort of pact with Imu in order too serve thy ruler of the world. 3. The reason Oda did not write the fruits name only the name of the demons/gods we saw because they reached a form beyond Zoan Type powers. Like "fully mastered UI Goku" and so by reaching this level they only refer too the names witch they manifest in as we can see them. How they look and a characteristics of a Zoan Type DF user such as the black cloud or mist around them, i would say this. Either way the Goroseis are just build different. One could even say that how they behave suggests that: 1. They are so full of them self as Gorosei they think they are superior to everybody 2.

My personal theory. could imagine such a Final Fantasy 7 plot. That there is an energy source on Earth (Life Stream) and an ancient civilization could harness this energy, possibly giving rise to the Devil's Fruit (Nika) (In Final Fantasy, such Materia is created). This could also explain the energy source that Vegapunk is seeking. Then there was a dispute between Imu and Joyboy over who would eat this fruit. Perhaps the ancestor of Vivi played a crucial role, leading to Joyboy consuming the fruit and Imu betraying the kingdom, killing her, and then, along with other kingdoms, wiping out the lost kingdom together with Joyboy. Currently, Imu might be able to control this energy source. Perhaps the Five Elders are so powerful because they can constantly heal themselves through the power of the energy source and thus are immortal.
Something that i'd like to point out with Imu's transformed form is that it was at least three times bigger than the Gorosei's and even if scales are not usually representative in those scenes where the characters are shadowed, i'd like to believe that Imu's transformation is absolutely massive in size and this would explain why gigantification takes such a big place in the priorities of the world gvt
The correspondence between horsemen and major antagonist lackies is always 👌. From Flamingo Officers to Kaido's Calamities. Although the ministries of Gorosei appeal to the thematic very well , I am firm enthusiast that the horsemen in the story will be Teach's Captains. Van Auger, Shillew, Laffite and Doc Q seem to be drawn like a medieval maniscript of Apocalypse.
The old rubber hose animation style had black, silhouette like beings used as antagonists a lot. Think that messed up dancing skeleton one from way, way back.
Even though Sengoku is the one with the Buddha fruit it is still quite interesting to me that Imu in Katakana is written as イム, whereas the Kanji for Buddha is written as 仏. I cannot get that out of my head. This might hint at him also being a god. Maybe the One Piece is god being made whole again after being split into 3 entities.
my head canon is that imu and the gorosei use the the frozen chambers of mariejois as part of the immortality operation and it's tied to the planets somehow. 7 chambers. 7 celestial bodies in clovers model. Imu and 5 gorosei leaves room for one more elder star if they use the moon and I tink Figarland Garling is next in line for the operation, and the likely donor body will be eithe r Luffy or Blackbeard. The bodies in the chambers absorb all the damage given to the gorosei, kinda like dorian greys portrait. so the only way to defeat Imu and the gorosei is to destroy the bodies in the chambers. what is needed is a raid on mariejois.
My theory is that the Gorosei really are animals that ate human fruits, and that the human/devils' will/haki supplanted the animal's will. Chopper is an animal that ate a human zoan fruit, Luffys devil fruit is revealed to be a zoan fruit and upon awakening it is explicitly referred to as Joyboy returning, which reinforces the theme of Inherited will but implies that all devil fruits offer a form of immortality. Sabo ate Aces' fire logia fruit and uses Aces' attacks somehow. As for the tusk turning into blades, I assume it is something similar to Bonney accessing Sun God Nikas power via a distorted future or similarly Chopper adding greater variety to his devil fruit via rumble balls. Chopper's devil fruit grants him his normal deer form, a human form, and his 50/50 form, yet Chopper went on to add more forms, his Monster Point sticks out like a sore thumb. Choppers' Monster point looks like a giant Leshen, which is a mythical creature I would put on par with the monsters that the Gorosei turn into. Basically, the monsters we see the Gorosei turn into are all in their own respective "monster point". if we then assume that they are all awakened zoans it could also explain their durability as that was explained by crocodile back in impel down.
I like the idea. I still feel that Tot Musica is a truth from the movie and will 100% show up in cannon but either Brook or BB will replace Uta in being the one connected to it. In the case of BB it makes sense that he have a DF directly related to dreams as the initial DF of his and that's why he seems like more than one person. Because he is like Envy from FMAB. He cannot sleep because his DF devours his capacity to suffer exhaustion of any kind preventing his access to dreams themselves. So he pursues other dreams like a moth to the flame. The Brighter the better and so controlling the world is about as ambitious as you can get. If its Brook then the reason he lived is because his DF sealed Tot Musica into him; the Affro is Tot Musica in the sealed form... I know sounds like a joke but its serious because we know how much the Affro means to him. So like with Merry if a decision to sheer it or burn it or something came up it would be rough. Sorry Brook but to save the world we must slay your hair before its unsealed and destroys us all. Affro Luffy could be an allusion to how important an Affro would be to the story. But I seriously believe the BB connection more.
In Eastern Philosophical Alchemy(or something among those lines) is is believed that individual with strong Duality of soul (can be attributed to Blackbeard as well) hence the destructive tendeties of Imu but also the need for Balance through the Gorosei. Anyway the soul has 5aspects which can have a correlation to the FiveStar I guess. Shen (Mind), Yi(Intellect) , Hun (Ethereal Soul), Po(Corporeal Soul) and Zhi ( Will-Power). If I were fit them , it would be Jubiter, Mercury, Venus, Saturn and Mars.
I think Imu might be a kraken who can use its squid ink to create beings like the gorosei just like a mangaka’s pen would. The gorosei and imu “erase” history/people by scribbling them out with ink, just like scribbling out and erasing Lulusia, covering eveything with darkness, like a mangaka scribbling out their work. They’re scared of nika since he is made of rubber like a true eraser and can reset everything to a normal, like a mangaka’s blank white page, white like the nika form. Maybe that was a tentacle rather than a demon tail.
the gorosei are of the same nature as the ancient weapons, is not coincidence that they are name as the first 5 planets (without earth) and the ancient weapons are the last 3, mercury, venus, mar, jupeter and saturn, poseidon which is a living being (neptune) uranus that I think the giant robot is related because in the last chapter someone said that he looks like a titan walking through hell (in the myth he imprisoned his children in hell) and pluton which might as well be a living being, he is the counter part of hades who is the God of the underworld, and pluton is currently under wano and the fact that the gorosei are in some extent, inmortals, they have to be ancient too. elder is on their names.
It's kind of wild that the quote unquote apocalypse in the one piece world is happening right around the same time that the supposed apocalypse is going to happen irl
There’s a lot of similarities from our world to the one piece world. I’m not gonna lie I wouldn’t doubt it if our world truly has 20 or so families controlling everything
Damn dude that’s an amazing theory. They presented Vegapunk with his 6 Satélites at the beginning of Egghead, just to get us used to that idea. And now, at the end, we see Imu and his 5 demons, which like you said, could be all from Imu.
One small detail, Blackbeard never was represented by the moon, moon provides light when the sun is absent, that is Zoro. Zoro steps up when Luffy is overwhelmed. Blackbeard is represented by a black hole, he wants to consume the world into his darkness. He absorbed a sun already (Ace) and will eventually will try with Luffy.
I find the idea that the gorosei are somewhat shapeless creatures pretty interesting. In their animal form their eyes look as if there was no soul in it, as if they were an empty shell. So them beeing an invetion that is filled with purpouse and life by imu as the devil seems really plausible to me.
One more thing about that Imu/Uni thing, it is believed in scripture that Hell is inverted. So Mark of the Beast is actually 999, etc. Oda's love of tapping the deep lore could very well be why he wrote "sea" in reverse
Is important to note that while there are people who indeed proclaim fibonacci number to be special or significant. Actually testing that yielded the somewhat dissapointing result that it wasn't even close. Almost nothing in nature conforms to it. Unlike Hexagons, which are bestagons.
Only 5 minutes in so maybe JB makes this point, but the gorosei being actual yokai in some form could have been foreshadowed by the spirit fox in wano which was implied to be an actual sentient mythical creature.
Damn, I literally wanted to use the slow down function. Like I seriously need to watch again. Especially midway and lol, love the Death Note touch Also, side note. Gureen Lagann uses spirals to and grows exponentially
I've got a similar idea too... May be the Gorosei are literal ancient beings, mythical beings (not devil fruits or devils) with power to manipulate their shadows at will... Like a superior version of Blackbeard... And what we are seeing in Egghead, is only their shadows that are fighting, not even their real body, which is why they never get hurt... May be their real bodies are still at Marijua... Hmmm... May be even like the Movie 'Avatar' ... or rather 'Matrix' fits perfectly...
I have a feeling that the Egghead Incident hasn't entirely happened yet, and the message getting out could lead to the Great Cleansing the Gorosei were talking about. Since now a lot of the world has to be discarded because they all know too much
Tolkien isn’t shy about it at all… Sauron isn’t the “Satan” of his story, more like a powerful demon. (Ironically in a similar way black beard inherited xebec’s will.) The BBEG of the silmarillion is named Morgoth. He is the one who tries to sing alongside allevitar in the beginning.
Idea that I thought of when the summoning was brought up: all of the Strawhats were sent where they would grow the most, and you can see why they would be sent there except for Brook, who was sent to a summoning circle. Could Kuma have known something about the summoning circle and sent the only Strawhat who could be mistaken for a demonic pressence there in an attempt of stopping something involving the powers of the elders? Maybe they get more powerful when worshipped/respected and trying a summoning like that would be enough to be worshipped/respected?
The thing you said about the 6 altars of Imu might be possible. In chapter 908 there was a person that came in to the butterfly room to tell Imu that the 5 elders were on their way to to meet Imu. Now we don't know who the person is but it's someone else that knows of Imu's existence.
I think the power of the Gorosei are Awakened Zoan, since the end of Wano, Oda has placed the awakened Zoan with a kind of cloud around them, all Gorosei have these clouds around their forms. But that doesn't explain their ability to teleport or communicate with each other, or the fact that they are immortal. I think all these abilities are different things. 1 - Zoan Awakened. 2 - Immortality/Regeneration 3 - Teleportation and Telepathy. All these 3 sets of powers are different things and not just one thing. This reminds me of Obito in Naruto, when he was still Madara his abilities were seen as two different things, but it ended up being a single ability which is Kamui, maybe it's the opposite with the Gorosei, 3 different powers being perceived as one power.
Luffy is like Ra/Horus, Blackbeard is Set/Seth and Imu is Apophis/Apep from Egyptian Mythology(dont look into the homoeroticism with horus and Set lol) Ra and Set worked together to defeat Apophis. 14:20 going off of the pattern in the numbers of the gorosei's pentacles, Imu must be 0(fitting since they refer to themselves as Mu and sit on an Empty Throne) Blackbeard has been associated with the number 3 and 8 so hes Infinity while luffy is both 56(gomu) and 29(nika)
If Luffy represents the Sun, Imu represents the sea, & BB the moon then at some point BB may gain control of Imu temporarily. Because the phases/movements of the moon affect the world's oceans. And all of that is due to gravity. Which means Fujitora may be a key part of turning the tides (pun intended) of war since he has the Zushi Zushi no Mi.
Imu being the Demon King of the sea while DF created through desires or dreams. The DF were created to fight Imu and as the Sea Devil Imu used the power of the sea to cursed the DF users. BB being the moon god makes BB the final villain since the moon controls the sea.
I love your channel and I like the similarities you’ve brought up. The only nick pick I will give cause I am a devoted Christian. Jesus DOESNT need our faith, We need Him. The Word of God already prophesies the defeat of the Anti-Christ and the Devil. He did it without our help. Jesus wants us to believe in Him so that we can have eternal life and not be lost into the lake of fire where the antichrist and all its believers to go. I hope this doesn’t come across as judgement just wanted to correct something that is important for people to know about what we believe about in Jesus Christ.
Warcury turning his tusk into blades isn't that surprising after all the crazy things we've seen ancient zoan users do so far like sasaki flying like a helico, queen serpent mode, cube kaku, slingshot king, etc.
I think the Gorosei definitely are Imu's incarnations, that is the reason why they're showing non human properties (The instant regeneration, that makes them immortal) As far as their scars are concerned, as many people are bringing out this point, I think they are either completely consumed by Imu or the fake copies of the orignal people which were the one appointed as 5 Elders and the one who recieved the scars in a battle. The one sitting in the pangea castle are just posing as the real ones. But due to the fact Mercury showed some concern for the human lives on Lulusia Kingdom, this gives more weight to my first point that Gorosei are cursed or corrupted by Imu, in other words sold their souls to Imu, in return or as a result of which they became what we are witnessing currently.
you know....this made me think. if DF are the embodiment of dreams and desires, it would stand to reason that their natural enemies would be nightmares and fear. you know what's in the top 10 of most common nightmares? Drowning i wonder if that particular one would be bumped up in rank in a world made of water with small traces of land on it
Alright. I'm going to share my thoughts on how the Gorosei regenerate. I'm almost certain that the way they regenerate is, as you mentioned, by shadows. They abuse the light of the sun because it creates shadows which they use to become shapeless, as light is. My theory is that they will need to be eliminated in the dark or underground to be properly killed; they need to be killed in their realm. This would be an inversion of Moria's shadows dying in the sunlight. That or Luffy will need to learn to burn so bright (like the sun) such that shadows are impossible. I like the first much more
All the Gorosei content is hyping me up! Comparing the Gorosei to the Four Houseman of the Apocalypse is fascinating, I can't wait till we see more of them.
If anyone represents infinity it's Buggy. His birthday is 8/8 (That's infinity twice) , 8/8 is also considered the luckiest day of the year ;). So Astrologically he's a Leo. The celestial body that corresponds with Leo's is Sirius.. also known as the Spiritual Sun, the brightest star in sky besides the sun inself. Sirius and the sun-our solar system’s very own star-are actually in a binary relationship according to astrology. * cough * * cough* Star Clown Buggy. Every year on August 8, an astrological event called the Lion's Gate Portal “opens” in the sky. Astrologers consider this an opportune day for manifestation, or concentrating on what you want to make it a reality. Hence it being the most lucky day of the year. You can make dreams come true on that day........Buggy's birth could have been someones dream/wish come true......hehe. Lions Gate Portal is also supposedly calls down otherworldly beings.
It makes more sense that Luffy is an allusion to Buddha instead of Jesus. The D initial could stand for Dharma, or the right way of living. The ones with the D initial all smile when confronted with death, how Buddha supposedly was not afraid of death and would always smile as well. I believe Blackbeard stole the D initial as he has never shared any characteristics with anyone else who possesses the D initial. The Gorosei and Imu could also be an allusion to Rakshasas, or a type of demon in Hinduism that can change shape and are dispelled by the sun. Personally, I think Buddhism and Hinduism have a larger influence on the story than given credit.
i honestly have been thinking of a reverse idea, oda tends to lile flipping things. not saying its this has reason but what if imu is the inverse of the satellites? what if they created imu and it took control? a creation that takes power is a concept i enjoy
Speaking of the number 108. Notice carrot is associated with 8. Chap 8. We see a reference to zunisha in page 5?. Vol 8. Oda talks about flying rabbits. Carrot can alter her direction mid flight. Carrot appears in volume 80. Chapter 804. Volum 88. Chapter 888. She goes sulong. She was the 8th most popular " voted " character inthe global poll. With 388 564 points. And recently in that card based game the released the carrot card and this is their 8th packet. Am i imaginging this or is oda up to something
I'm still waiting for you to tell me... lmao Perhaps the minks are the eighth orb in the Joy Boy symbol? Can the minks lead by carrot be the 8th fleet of Luffy?

This could also explain the energy source that Vegapunk is seeking. Then there was a dispute between Imu and Joyboy over who would eat this fruit.

Currently, Imu might be able to control this energy source. Perhaps the Five Elders are so powerful because they can constantly heal themselves through the power of the energy source and thus are immortal.
The fact that karibu is like luffies barto is all the proof we need that blackbeard has the opposite god fruit
I can speculate that BB's actual power is the one that Zebec had
Something that i'd like to point out with Imu's transformed form is that it was at least three times bigger than the Gorosei's and even if scales are not usually representative in those scenes where the characters are shadowed, i'd like to believe that Imu's transformation is absolutely massive in size and this would explain why gigantification takes such a big place in the priorities of the world gvt
I mean, Imu has to be able to transform into something real big. How else would he have worn the hat he owns…
Shape-shifting could also explain why all gorosie can take a human appearance

My pleasure!
The correspondence between horsemen and major antagonist lackies is always 👌. From Flamingo Officers to Kaido's Calamities. Although the ministries of Gorosei appeal to the thematic very well , I am firm enthusiast that the horsemen in the story will be Teach's Captains. Van Auger, Shillew, Laffite and Doc Q seem to be drawn like a medieval maniscript of Apocalypse.
The old rubber hose animation style had black, silhouette like beings used as antagonists a lot. Think that messed up dancing skeleton one from way, way back.
Blackbeard’s crew. The guy with wings and doesn’t have his backstory mentioned at all, the flying guy. He could be part of IMU as well.
Even though Sengoku is the one with the Buddha fruit it is still quite interesting to me that Imu in Katakana is written as イム, whereas the Kanji for Buddha is written as 仏. I cannot get that out of my head. This might hint at him also being a god. Maybe the One Piece is god being made whole again after being split into 3 entities.
This theory is so perfect for the Holy Week you are Oda man!
my head canon is that imu and the gorosei use the the frozen chambers of mariejois as part of the immortality operation and it's tied to the planets somehow. 7 chambers. 7 celestial bodies in clovers model. Imu and 5 gorosei leaves room for one more elder star if they use the moon and I tink Figarland Garling is next in line for the operation, and the likely donor body will be eithe r Luffy or Blackbeard. The bodies in the chambers absorb all the damage given to the gorosei, kinda like dorian greys portrait. so the only way to defeat Imu and the gorosei is to destroy the bodies in the chambers. what is needed is a raid on mariejois.
Good timing 🫡
ayo if mihawk and crocodile are beating buggy to a pulp.... arent they trying to awake buggy´s devil fruit?
My theory is that the Gorosei really are animals that ate human fruits, and that the human/devils' will/haki supplanted the animal's will. Chopper is an animal that ate a human zoan fruit, Luffys devil fruit is revealed to be a zoan fruit and upon awakening it is explicitly referred to as Joyboy returning, which reinforces the theme of Inherited will but implies that all devil fruits offer a form of immortality. Sabo ate Aces' fire logia fruit and uses Aces' attacks somehow. As for the tusk turning into blades, I assume it is something similar to Bonney accessing Sun God Nikas power via a distorted future or similarly Chopper adding greater variety to his devil fruit via rumble balls. Chopper's devil fruit grants him his normal deer form, a human form, and his 50/50 form, yet Chopper went on to add more forms, his Monster Point sticks out like a sore thumb. Choppers' Monster point looks like a giant Leshen, which is a mythical creature I would put on par with the monsters that the Gorosei turn into. Basically, the monsters we see the Gorosei turn into are all in their own respective "monster point". if we then assume that they are all awakened zoans it could also explain their durability as that was explained by crocodile back in impel down.
Keep on mind that apocalypse is greek for revelation. And in the world of one piece the clock is ticking for a revelation.
I absolutely adore your 108 section of this video. Well done, JoyBoy-senchou
"Lets introduce the stars of the show"
Made me really laugh, nice one 😂
I like the idea.
I still feel that Tot Musica is a truth from the movie and will 100% show up in cannon but either Brook or BB will replace Uta in being the one connected to it.
In the case of BB it makes sense that he have a DF directly related to dreams as the initial DF of his and that's why he seems like more than one person. Because he is like Envy from FMAB.
He cannot sleep because his DF devours his capacity to suffer exhaustion of any kind preventing his access to dreams themselves.
So he pursues other dreams like a moth to the flame. The Brighter the better and so controlling the world is about as ambitious as you can get.
If its Brook then the reason he lived is because his DF sealed Tot Musica into him; the Affro is Tot Musica in the sealed form... I know sounds like a joke but its serious because we know how much the Affro means to him. So like with Merry if a decision to sheer it or burn it or something came up it would be rough.
Sorry Brook but to save the world we must slay your hair before its unsealed and destroys us all.
Affro Luffy could be an allusion to how important an Affro would be to the story.
But I seriously believe the BB connection more.
In Eastern Philosophical Alchemy(or something among those lines) is is believed that individual with strong Duality of soul (can be attributed to Blackbeard as well) hence the destructive tendeties of Imu but also the need for Balance through the Gorosei. Anyway the soul has 5aspects which can have a correlation to the FiveStar I guess. Shen (Mind), Yi(Intellect) , Hun (Ethereal Soul), Po(Corporeal Soul) and Zhi ( Will-Power). If I were fit them , it would be Jubiter, Mercury, Venus, Saturn and Mars.
Plot twist. Their human forms are their devil fruits.
devils unbound from fruits was my theory back when saturn was revealed!
I think Imu might be a kraken who can use its squid ink to create beings like the gorosei just like a mangaka’s pen would. The gorosei and imu “erase” history/people by scribbling them out with ink, just like scribbling out and erasing Lulusia, covering eveything with darkness, like a mangaka scribbling out their work. They’re scared of nika since he is made of rubber like a true eraser and can reset everything to a normal, like a mangaka’s blank white page, white like the nika form.
Maybe that was a tentacle rather than a demon tail.
People forget that Imu has a servant other than the 5 gorosie
the gorosei are of the same nature as the ancient weapons, is not coincidence that they are name as the first 5 planets (without earth) and the ancient weapons are the last 3, mercury, venus, mar, jupeter and saturn, poseidon which is a living being (neptune) uranus that I think the giant robot is related because in the last chapter someone said that he looks like a titan walking through hell (in the myth he imprisoned his children in hell) and pluton which might as well be a living being, he is the counter part of hades who is the God of the underworld, and pluton is currently under wano and the fact that the gorosei are in some extent, inmortals, they have to be ancient too. elder is on their names.
Im leaning more towards the gorosei are alchemist. Still possible imu posses them or something along those lines
It's kind of wild that the quote unquote apocalypse in the one piece world is happening right around the same time that the supposed apocalypse is going to happen irl
There’s a lot of similarities from our world to the one piece world. I’m not gonna lie I wouldn’t doubt it if our world truly has 20 or so families controlling everything
@@tastyj3940Oda counting the days to the End with every chapter.
@@Neil-iu2sq that's why I said the supposed apocalypse.
@@Miss_Yonkonah nah you can't say it's wild and then fall on supposed.
The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
Damn dude that’s an amazing theory. They presented Vegapunk with his 6 Satélites at the beginning of Egghead, just to get us used to that idea. And now, at the end, we see Imu and his 5 demons, which like you said, could be all from Imu.
One small detail, Blackbeard never was represented by the moon, moon provides light when the sun is absent, that is Zoro. Zoro steps up when Luffy is overwhelmed. Blackbeard is represented by a black hole, he wants to consume the world into his darkness. He absorbed a sun already (Ace) and will eventually will try with Luffy.
I find the idea that the gorosei are somewhat shapeless creatures pretty interesting. In their animal form their eyes look as if there was no soul in it, as if they were an empty shell. So them beeing an invetion that is filled with purpouse and life by imu as the devil seems really plausible to me.
Love the theory..❤ but hearing ghandi and karl marx in the same sentence is wild , an thats why onr piece theories are the best . Love you
One more thing about that Imu/Uni thing, it is believed in scripture that Hell is inverted. So Mark of the Beast is actually 999, etc. Oda's love of tapping the deep lore could very well be why he wrote "sea" in reverse
Been watching for the last several months. Really like it when you use the soundtrack for.... FTL (almost forgot the name)
The formless illustration of the gorosei during the clash with sabo reminds me of Kanjuro when he was a child. And also the fire monster he drew
Is important to note that while there are people who indeed proclaim fibonacci number to be special or significant. Actually testing that yielded the somewhat dissapointing result that it wasn't even close. Almost nothing in nature conforms to it.
Unlike Hexagons, which are bestagons.
Only 5 minutes in so maybe JB makes this point, but the gorosei being actual yokai in some form could have been foreshadowed by the spirit fox in wano which was implied to be an actual sentient mythical creature.
Damn! Your animations are getting better and better!
Damn, I literally wanted to use the slow down function. Like I seriously need to watch again. Especially midway and lol, love the Death Note touch
Also, side note. Gureen Lagann uses spirals to and grows exponentially
I've got a similar idea too... May be the Gorosei are literal ancient beings, mythical beings (not devil fruits or devils) with power to manipulate their shadows at will... Like a superior version of Blackbeard... And what we are seeing in Egghead, is only their shadows that are fighting, not even their real body, which is why they never get hurt... May be their real bodies are still at Marijua... Hmmm... May be even like the Movie 'Avatar' ... or rather 'Matrix' fits perfectly...
I have a feeling that the Egghead Incident hasn't entirely happened yet, and the message getting out could lead to the Great Cleansing the Gorosei were talking about. Since now a lot of the world has to be discarded because they all know too much
Tolkien isn’t shy about it at all… Sauron isn’t the “Satan” of his story, more like a powerful demon. (Ironically in a similar way black beard inherited xebec’s will.) The BBEG of the silmarillion is named Morgoth.
He is the one who tries to sing alongside allevitar in the beginning.
Oda: “3 week break”
Welp, get your appetites ready, joyboy theories boutta start COOKIN
I feel like people manifested their wants and died and their power turned into a devil fruit. They just havent died yet.
Those are actually pentagrams, they have sigils/symbols inside
Your theory is Amazing. I learned a lot of real life history, religious, math and political while watching One Piece theory videos. LOL 🤣
Joy boy is on fire with these theories
None stop for weeks!!
The Moria comparison is a pretty accurate and interesting take
After the dinosaur shenanigans I'm not putting it past Oda to say of the tusk blades: "this is how mythical pigs hunted"
Idea that I thought of when the summoning was brought up: all of the Strawhats were sent where they would grow the most, and you can see why they would be sent there except for Brook, who was sent to a summoning circle. Could Kuma have known something about the summoning circle and sent the only Strawhat who could be mistaken for a demonic pressence there in an attempt of stopping something involving the powers of the elders? Maybe they get more powerful when worshipped/respected and trying a summoning like that would be enough to be worshipped/respected?
Somebody finally spoke on topman tusk turning into blades

🕉️☸️☯️108... Imu Blackbeard Luffy... best theory I've seen in years 🤯😎
Nice of you to drop that video on Good Friday.
The thing you said about the 6 altars of Imu might be possible. In chapter 908 there was a person that came in to the butterfly room to tell Imu that the 5 elders were on their way to to meet Imu. Now we don't know who the person is but it's someone else that knows of Imu's existence.
I think the power of the Gorosei are Awakened Zoan, since the end of Wano, Oda has placed the awakened Zoan with a kind of cloud around them, all Gorosei have these clouds around their forms.
But that doesn't explain their ability to teleport or communicate with each other, or the fact that they are immortal.
I think all these abilities are different things.
1 - Zoan Awakened.
2 - Immortality/Regeneration
3 - Teleportation and Telepathy.
All these 3 sets of powers are different things and not just one thing. This reminds me of Obito in Naruto, when he was still Madara his abilities were seen as two different things, but it ended up being a single ability which is Kamui, maybe it's the opposite with the Gorosei, 3 different powers being perceived as one power.
Bro, how are you pumping wuality content so regularly 😌 good stuff mate
Luffy is like Ra/Horus, Blackbeard is Set/Seth and Imu is Apophis/Apep from Egyptian Mythology(dont look into the homoeroticism with horus and Set lol) Ra and Set worked together to defeat Apophis.
14:20 going off of the pattern in the numbers of the gorosei's pentacles, Imu must be 0(fitting since they refer to themselves as Mu and sit on an Empty Throne) Blackbeard has been associated with the number 3 and 8 so hes Infinity while luffy is both 56(gomu) and 29(nika)
If Luffy represents the Sun, Imu represents the sea, & BB the moon then at some point BB may gain control of Imu temporarily.
Because the phases/movements of the moon affect the world's oceans. And all of that is due to gravity. Which means Fujitora may be a key part of turning the tides (pun intended) of war since he has the Zushi Zushi no Mi.
i have a feeling you're gonna upload a video about usop tomorrow
Imu being the Demon King of the sea while DF created through desires or dreams. The DF were created to fight Imu and as the Sea Devil Imu used the power of the sea to cursed the DF users.
BB being the moon god makes BB the final villain since the moon controls the sea.
Everyone seems to forget about buggy when they talk about one piece gods
I love your channel and I like the similarities you’ve brought up. The only nick pick I will give cause I am a devoted Christian. Jesus DOESNT need our faith, We need Him. The Word of God already prophesies the defeat of the Anti-Christ and the Devil. He did it without our help. Jesus wants us to believe in Him so that we can have eternal life and not be lost into the lake of fire where the antichrist and all its believers to go. I hope this doesn’t come across as judgement just wanted to correct something that is important for people to know about what we believe about in Jesus Christ.
Warcury turning his tusk into blades isn't that surprising after all the crazy things we've seen ancient zoan users do so far like sasaki flying like a helico, queen serpent mode, cube kaku, slingshot king, etc.
I think the Gorosei definitely are Imu's incarnations, that is the reason why they're showing non human properties (The instant regeneration, that makes them immortal)
As far as their scars are concerned, as many people are bringing out this point, I think they are either completely consumed by Imu or the fake copies of the orignal people which were the one appointed as 5 Elders and the one who recieved the scars in a battle. The one sitting in the pangea castle are just posing as the real ones.
But due to the fact Mercury showed some concern for the human lives on Lulusia Kingdom, this gives more weight to my first point that Gorosei are cursed or corrupted by Imu, in other words sold their souls to Imu, in return or as a result of which they became what we are witnessing currently.
The World Government Iz Not Evil.! 0:20
you know....this made me think.
if DF are the embodiment of dreams and desires, it would stand to reason that their natural enemies would be nightmares and fear.
you know what's in the top 10 of most common nightmares?
Drowning
i wonder if that particular one would be bumped up in rank in a world made of water with small traces of land on it
beautiful and better than other vids continue actual fictional analysis
Alright. I'm going to share my thoughts on how the Gorosei regenerate. I'm almost certain that the way they regenerate is, as you mentioned, by shadows. They abuse the light of the sun because it creates shadows which they use to become shapeless, as light is. My theory is that they will need to be eliminated in the dark or underground to be properly killed; they need to be killed in their realm. This would be an inversion of Moria's shadows dying in the sunlight.
That or Luffy will need to learn to burn so bright (like the sun) such that shadows are impossible. I like the first much more
All the Gorosei content is hyping me up!
Comparing the Gorosei to the Four Houseman of the Apocalypse is fascinating, I can't wait till we see more of them.
If anyone represents infinity it's Buggy. His birthday is 8/8 (That's infinity twice) , 8/8 is also considered the luckiest day of the year ;).
So Astrologically he's a Leo. The celestial body that corresponds with Leo's is Sirius.. also known as the Spiritual Sun, the brightest star in sky besides the sun inself. Sirius and the sun-our solar system’s very own star-are actually in a binary relationship according to astrology. * cough * * cough* Star Clown Buggy.
Every year on August 8, an astrological event called the Lion's Gate Portal “opens” in the sky. Astrologers consider this an opportune day for manifestation, or concentrating on what you want to make it a reality. Hence it being the most lucky day of the year. You can make dreams come true on that day........Buggy's birth could have been someones dream/wish come true......hehe.
Lions Gate Portal is also supposedly calls down otherworldly beings.
It makes more sense that Luffy is an allusion to Buddha instead of Jesus. The D initial could stand for Dharma, or the right way of living. The ones with the D initial all smile when confronted with death, how Buddha supposedly was not afraid of death and would always smile as well. I believe Blackbeard stole the D initial as he has never shared any characteristics with anyone else who possesses the D initial. The Gorosei and Imu could also be an allusion to Rakshasas, or a type of demon in Hinduism that can change shape and are dispelled by the sun. Personally, I think Buddhism and Hinduism have a larger influence on the story than given credit.
What’s the soundtrack used in the background?
Maybe Saturn could be conquest, because that is another horsemen of the apocalypse
i honestly have been thinking of a reverse idea, oda tends to lile flipping things. not saying its this has reason but what if imu is the inverse of the satellites? what if they created imu and it took control? a creation that takes power is a concept i enjoy
I more so feel like the stretching could have just been him being turned into rubber for a second but I could be wrong
Speaking of the number 108. Notice carrot is associated with 8.
Chap 8. We see a reference to zunisha in page 5?.
Vol 8. Oda talks about flying rabbits. Carrot can alter her direction mid flight.
Carrot appears in volume 80. Chapter 804.
Volum 88. Chapter 888. She goes sulong.
She was the 8th most popular " voted " character inthe global poll. With 388 564 points.
And recently in that card based game the released the carrot card and this is their 8th packet.
Am i imaginging this or is oda up to something
THERE IT IS lmao
That's wild
@@JoyBoyTheories exactly so what does it mean
I'm still waiting for you to tell me... lmao
Perhaps the minks are the eighth orb in the Joy Boy symbol? Can the minks lead by carrot be the 8th fleet of Luffy?
Gorosie are weapons, black beard will bring them down as the moon of each of these planets, through darkness.
