Not really the idea of having a small army was a good one , that's what Luffy has now and he gave Luffy more trouble than Arlong. He just happend on Mihawk, and if Luffy and his crew were in his place they would get slaughtered by Mihawk as well.
@@saki1333 Don krieg was only a challenge because they were fighting on water and while Luffy absolutely can't fall in Krieg doesn't need to worry about that. if they were on land it'd be a very easy fight for Luffy. Arlong gave Luffy way more of an actual fight

"Luffy is a rubber man, Katakuri is a mochi man... so they have a literal mirror match where there's two stretchy silly boys fighting each other." My favourite quote.
I love the theory that Katakuri was going to kill Luffy and looked into his future. But instead of seeing him be a good bean or anything that made him respect the guy, he instead saw that if he tries to kill Luffy he'll unlock Gear 5th, where Luffy just turn into a literal cartoon character that will fuck up the ENTIRE island and everyone on it. And Katakuri just stopped for a moment. Thought about it. Really let ALL of that sink in. And was ultimately just like "It's... not worth it.... It's REALLY not worth it........." before passing out from exhaustion, lol.
@@joyous18 , of course Luffy is completely illiterate because Garp never taught Luffy how to read and write, and instead he had Shanks looking over Luffy for 7 years and the Mountain Bandits for 10 years of his, and neither of those people taught Luffy how to read and write properly, and they only taught a 7 year old child how to survive in war events on the battlefield, so Luffy being completely illiterate makes complete sense in the lore of One Piece.

1:52:30 fun fact the ship falling from the sky RIGHT ABOVE GOING MARY was the final scene from the final episode of the 4kids version of the series. They ended the kiddie friendly version by making the kiddies think the entire crew had died to falling ship
4kids threw a tantrum by eventually realizing this was not the Saturday morning cartoon they were looking for. The series had too much material that they didn't want to try to localize for small children. Like the parts that involve people dying? For example. So they took a shit on One Piece and abandoned it
@@Byssbod I remember reading somewhere that 4Kids actually just misunderstood what kind of show One Piece was, I think it was less that they were fuming at its mature content and more they were thinking "oh god he stabs his freaking eye and this blonde prick is holding a gun to the glasses bitch's head what have we gotten ourselves into!?"
Oda is a freaking dinosaur in his field of work now. He's even given interviews talking about how he's the last guy standing from his generation of manga writers. Not because the other guys were necessarily unpopular, but since many of the writers he broke into the field with are already dead from heart attacks/embolisms, as they literally broke down from working 60hrs+ a week for years on end. Hell at this point, many of the new mangaka coming to work for Shonen Jump weren't even born when Oda started One Piece.
@@hundredpercentjuice Shonen Jump vs Weekly Shonen Magazine, beyond that the fact still stands you can count on one hand notable mangaka still going from the early 90's
hundredpercentjuice well if Oda’s talking about most of his generation he’s right but yeah he’s not the « dinosaur » , morikawa is a little before oda’s time but not by much. Morikawa is indeed the OG dinosaur of the manga industry

@@The_Ninja_Tree, Pre-Timeskip always had Haki introduced, but they just called it different names at the time, so I honestly don’t how anybody could call Haki itself a retcon because it’s always been an established fighting structure in One Piece such as Sanji’s Diable Jambe, Garp’s Fist of love, or Zoro cutting steal in half all being different forms of Armament Haki; the Skypians calling Observational Haki Mantra, and Shanks had Conquers Haki all the way back in the very beginning of the series in the anime/manga.
@@The_Ninja_Tree, that’s a fair point that the different forms of Haki that I mentioned weren’t called Haki until the Amazon Lily Arc-Post Timeskip Arcs, but they still existed from the very beginning of the series, so to say Haki is a retcon in the world of One Piece is a huge lie.
I clicked this video when it first came out, and paused at the exact moment I was instructed to. I've been meaning to read all of one piece for the longest time and this finally prompted me to do so. I'm back a month later. Its now my favorite thing of all time and I'm here to watch and relish

People go on and on about good Oda's memory is and about how he's been planning this series in one for or another his entire life but the fat that he made up all 11 Supernovas less then a month before introducing them will always be the most impressive thing he's even done as a writer in my eyes. From that one last minute decisions came not only a 10/10 story arc in the form of Sabaody but pretty much every notable event in the New World. Yes Oda has been planning major plot points for a long time but here's an example of him making something up on the spot and unfolding that into years of fantastic content.
Supernovas are not the only thing...when he was about to introduce Sanji(Initially named "Naruto"), he found out there was another Shounen Jump Series whose protagonist was named "Naruto", so he changed the name to "Sanji" and the fact that he created the whole Germa 66 thing is a stroke of genius imo.
@@gopalasrinivasa9516 While this is to my knowledge true I don't think its in the same ball park in terms on last minute changes. If we assume Oda had idea of the Germa in mind that far in advance when introducing Sanji, which I don't think we have any reason to think he did, then at most all this would have forced him to change is the names of Sanji's siblings. For clarity while I didn't but into the theory that Sanji was a prince before the Germa reveal I have since accepted that the foreshadowing was there but this doesn't mean that the entire Germa cast and plot line of Whole Cake island was fully developed as far back as Sanji's introduction as I've seen others suggest in the past. Idk I just feel like the introduction of 11 brand new characters who would go on to become major antagonists and allies with a months notice is quite a few magnitudes more impressive then Oda being humble and pragmatic enough to recognize it would be wise to change his new characters name so as to not risk clashing with a new series.
This. I've always told people that Oda himself has said he doesn't actually plan ahead as much as people think he does. I mean there are some obvious moments where he clearly did, but I believe a lot of what people think is astounding foreshadowing is actually the opposite. I think instead of just planning literally everything decades ahead, Oda just doesn't EVER forget any characters or places that he makes up. As a result, many come into relevance way later, but not because he was thinking that far in the future, but in the future decided to use a character that would make sense to be in that arc that most people assumed was gone. A good example of this is probably Silvers Raleigh, Roger's first mate. Oda has stated that at the beginning of the series he never meant for it to get nearly as long as it is today. This means it was unlikely he planned to have Raleigh be as important and pivotal as he ended up being. But Oda has a knack for being able to bring characters back in a bit way that doesn't seem like he's just picking random old characters from a bag, but rather reintroducing them at a moment and arc that both makes sense for their own journey and connects to the arc in important ways. Basically, he's a genius.
the thing is that one piece is apparently the only story oda has ever wanted to tell. he has school notebooks with scrawled doodles of early luffy designs in them simply titled "pirate manga". as far as i can tell, this story is the only one that has been in oda's head since the day he was born. so no, he hasn't planned the entire story out beat for beat and moment to moment. but what he has done over the years is internally gone over every permutation he can think of for how the story COULD play out. some things are already known, he's probably known what the one piece is since he was 10, but he knows every possible storyline he feels he could tell by introducing certain characters in certain arcs, and by remembering all the possible variations of one piece, he can turn random details from earlier in the story into full blown foreshadowing (shanks scares off a sea king, zoro senses his sword when it's out of sight, eneru and aisa use mantra to feel the life around them, gold roger is somehow the strongest man who ever lived while lacking a devil fruit, haki wasn't planned but these details set the stage for it to happen), and that allows the story to be cohesive even though what actually ends up on the page is made up on a whim. since oda knows ever possible permutation of the story, he already knew what the consequences would be for introducing the supernovas, so adjusting his timetable was as simple as "drawing new character designs", you know, that thing oda hates doing and would never waste time with by making every background character unique? right, what a hassle that must have been for him, "the editor says i have to make a bunch of new characters to play with? 'kay!"
That's because Naruto started sucking around volume 12-ish and it never stopped sucking. People tell me how retarded it is by the end and it's absurd. It makes every mistake a longrunning series can make. Also Naruto is a massive hypocrite and cringy and fuck to watch.
Talking about jinbei "To date he has not reappeared in the story." How convenient right when this video came out jinbei comes back and officially joins the crew
"W-wait. The bazooka ate...a fruit-" "Yes-" "-and it gave birth, out of its bazooka hole...to a dog" "Nonono - the bazooka has the ability to turn into a dog" "Oh 'kay. Now it makes sense". Best out of context line I could ever get. Also, awesome lecture on a pretty good series I halted reading because of reasons. Maybe I'll actually get to catching up from where I left off this week.
you should. One Piece is one of these rare series which is as good as the thousand dumbass fanbois say it is. It's so layered that both a complete moron and the smartest man in the world could enjoy
Its so funny how the most heart wrenching scene to watch, Kuma annihilating the Straw Hats and breaking Luffys spirit in the moment,is described as *blink blonk blink blonk blink blink blink*
Bruh, even as someone who's been caught up to one piece for YEARS, there were several times during my watch where I said out loud..."Yo, this shit is WILD" the scope of this story is INSANE, and we are all going to be so sad when it ends.

They say that the one piece is actually the dead body of joyboy who turned himself into a pickle and what Roger and is crew find there is the story of how joyboy turned himself into a pickle and they just loughed because that's the funniest shit ever
That's not what was revealed in manga He is just adding his theory Chill out bro One Piece is NOT Revealed yet. In the anime that will be animated about a year I think with the pacing going.
A few of the meanings of "romance" apply: - a medieval tale dealing with a hero of chivalry, of the kind common in the Romance languages. - a work of fiction dealing with events remote from real life, especially one of a kind popular in the 16th and 17th centuries. - a quality or feeling of mystery, excitement, and remoteness from everyday life.
"Rather they meet the ass of a man. They find the butt, of a samurai, is attached to the head of a dragon which lives on Punk Hazard. That butt communicates via farts, canonically." my favorite quote 3:51:40

@@BestGuyEverit’s sad that this whole guide need a new update to it with how much info has been dumped within the last 4 year and how everything has changed since then lol
Still watching the lecture and i wanted to say this: I started crying when you said "Called The Going Merry" A lot WHY DO I FEEL IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN A LOT?!
I just got into anime and manga 3 months ago and though I had known about one piece for some time, I always pegged it as just some comedic cartoony action anime. I never would have guessed it had such deep and multifaceted characterization and character development, good writing and world building. Anime really continues to surprise me.
The gods have smiled upon me. Less than a week ago, I Googled "what is One Piece about?" and read a paragraph on Wikipedia. Thought I was satisfied. Now here's this five hour video to answer my prayers. You really are the best guy ever.
Read it x3 Stop getting spoiled by these videos haha, they're meant for people who've already seen the series. But you can probably tell just how huge and complex the world of One Piece is, just understand that Oda makes it seem extremely simple and easy to engage in. Hope to see you on the other side!
"Man this KH lecture is almost too long! So much content!" Based Nate makes the FF lecture longer "Woah, 4 1/2 hours! That is almost too much content! Surely he has reached his limit?" Ascended Nate makes an almost 5 hour One Piece lecture "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!?!?!?! I'M OVERFLOWING WITH RAD CONTENT!"
Most people don't want to start reading One Piece because it's so long now, but I think right now is possibly the best moment to do it, considering the last chapter and where we're heading over the next few chapters. To be fair, I'd say any time is a great time to start, but so much is coming together right now. I can't imagine how epic it must be to binge it over a month or two and see everything come together and culminate in the peak of the current arc, with every bit of foreshadowing and reference still fresh in mind. The entire series is about to come crashing together and I seriously can't wait.
Absolutely disgusted by the disrespect to THE Tony Tony Chopper in this video. One of the most KINO backstories of the entire series glossed over. The entire Drum Island arc is such a masterpiece of the world building, characters, and the theme of inherited will. Sure you called Dr. Hiriluk "based and redpilled" but you neglect to mention his incredible speech during Choppers backflash, as well as his death. I understand that there's a LOT to go through within the series but you can't just bring up these concepts during the intro and not point out moments of the story where they show up. It's tragic that Chopper is robbed of the spotlight further into the series but the boy needs to shine a little.
There is so much stuff that has happened since this video was released. It would probably be hard and I understand if it's not possible, but I think a followup video would be great.
everyone is not here! well, Nate is somewhat alive Ben - perished Oliver - dead Digi - deceased Munchy - gone Gibbon - passed away (heroic) Jess - missing
4:21:15 Munchy asking whether or not one piece, after all this time, is still topping itself and Nate enthusiastically stating that it really is. Thank you Goda for rewarding us long time fans. We can't wait to see what's in store. Still hoping the ball doesn't get dropped but if it does at least we got 1000 fantastic chapters of romance, boys and girls.
I’m rereading one piece and I think early one piece might be better than TS one piece. It was so much funnier, with serious moments and a focus on all of the crew.
@@TubemastaC I disagree with this. I mean if you liked pre timeskip better than that's your opinion, which is fine, but I find that it's a huge misconception that post timeskip is less funny and has less heartwarming scenes. I will admit that the crew gets split up quite a bit in the post timeskip arcs (which happens in pre timeskip too actually, but they always congregated at the beginning and end of every arc), but the amount of little interactions (often between the straw Hats and new characters) that occur that aren't directly plot related is quite astounding, actually. I believe this misconception happens because of stakes. Pre timeskip was essentially the straw Hats fucking around and having fun. Post timeskip is endgame time, meaning the crew has to fight the emperor's of the sea and actually confront the extremely dark and twisted world around them (And within them too. Totland is post timeskip enies lobby). I've been rereading One Piece as well and I'd say the only real downgrade after the timeskip is that we haven't had a emotionally climactic moment that can rival water seven and enies lobby. And even this can only be attributed to the fact that Oda is building up to it, rather than being unable to create another one. One Piece is just as hilarious as it's always been, just as optimistic and cheerful, and just as emotional (just because it didn't peak as hard as enies lobby doesn't mean it doesn't have insanely emotional moments). And some people complain about character design, which fair enough, but is 100% an opinion and not a valid critical comment.
@@TubemastaC And to address your comment about serious moments, I'm assuming you mean crew related considering post timeskip is way more serious in general than pre timeskip, it's true that the crew doesn't really have any too many drama moments within (if you totally ignore Sanji's entire arc), but if you think about it this is definitely a good thing. It would be repetitive and bog the story down. Remember, we're trying to reach raftel and find the one piece, not watch a sitcom about the straw Hats.
@@ACey96 strenght hardly equals relevance though (not to mention he's the youngest with 2 years younger than Luffy and 3 or more than all the others), talking about him as if he's just a mascot when he's also an important part of the crew dynamic is pretty shitty, considering their friendship is one of THE main selling points of one piece
Tamara Pinter he said weakest WRITEN. which I 100 percent agree with. he literally has no importance to the larger story. and is kinda just the “cute” one.
@@midshipman8654 lmao yeah chopper is the "cute" one, just like Sanji is the "pervert", Usopp is the scaredy cat and Nami is the one with the hot temper. You can reduce any Strawhat down to their baisc comic relief traits that Oda has assigned them. Saying he has no importance to the larger story is just plain wrong. He's not a strong fighter but he is their backbone when it comes to treatment after the fights. None of the Strawhats have fallen gravely ill so we don't see it on screen, but it's his dream to be able to cure any disease. Oda wrote Chopper because he will be the only one to achieve that dream, same as Zoro reaching his and becoming best swordsman. As the King of Pirate Luffy will need the best, and considering how often he used techniques that shorten his life span, Chopper will play a huge role in that. Dismissing Chopper just bc he isn't in the middle of the fighting is just pretty dumb if u ask me. Like sure he is far from my favorite character, but he has his own important position to fill
I can’t believe it, after all these years of telling myself that I won’t get into One Piece cause it’s just too much content, BGE has convinced me to read the manga half way through the video. I don’t know when or how I’ll find the time to do so in my busy ass life, but this lecture has convince me to start my journey. Thanks for the inspiration BGE.
30 minutes in: Why am i watching this? I already up to date with one piece! 2 hours and 43 minutes in: Ok this is kinda fun to watch 4 hours and 40 minutes: Aaaaand done. wow what a ride
I'm on whole cake island and I really feel his pain at having to skip over so many details in recounting the many, *many* adventures of the Straw Hats.
I've been following One Piece for a decade now, and I still learned shit from BGE's lecture here. Dude's a champ Chad. Probably missed my window to write this by 24+ hours, but I wanted to quickly explain Gear 2nd and Gear 3rd: It's a massive distinction that Luffy isn't a Logia type. He is always rubber, and more importantly if you take a cross-section of his body you will find muscle tendon, bone, and blood vessels. With Gear 2nd, he pools his blood in his legs by compressing the bones down, then catapults the blood through his body. Since his arteries and heart are made of rubber, they can take the strain of the drastically increased blood speed, thus increasing the speed his body can move. Gear 3rd, or "Bone Balloon" has Luffy bite into his thumb and inflates his bones. The reason this does more damage is because the Bones are a thicker material. It's the difference between getting hit by balloon, and a Monster Truck Tire.
Really puts into perspective how powerful the "muscle ballon covered in Armament Haki" (aka Gear 4th) really is. Imagine several truck tires being catapulted into you several times, while they're all covered in titanium. Really scary stuff.
the simple way to understand gear 2nd (because 3rd is easy and if you understand 2nd and 3rd, the 4th is a laugh) is that luffy is pulsing his body. he's basically vibrating at high speed but forcing himself to remain still, then when he chooses to move, he simply relaxes in the direction he wants to go and rockets off. the medium he's pulsing in that case is his blood, which would make a normal cardiovascular system explode, but luffy's stretchy so he's fine. 3rd is just him inflating his bones, it's pretty simple. 4th is where it gets interesting, because by inflating his muscles and then pulsing the air in his muscles in specific ways like he did with his blood, he essentially becomes a balloon that can direct its own motion. combine that with his natural strength and the damage-boost from haki, and he becomes a supersonic balloon that can break a building in half by running into it. snakeman, boundman and tankman are each different levels of combining the pulsing, the haki and the inflation, resulting in a very diverse technique base possible for gear 4th.
This is thr greatest OP video on the planet. Pls continue to add to this if humanly possible. I drive overnight for work and I've relistened to this I think for the 4th time all the way through tonight. Truly appreciated
As another point on Luffy's sexuality when talking about the Amazon Lily thing: Oda said a while back in an SBS, I believe during Alabasta, that he only draws Luffy reacting to naked women with everyone else for the sake of looking uniform. Literally just because he thinks it'd look weird if he didn't react. Not because Luffy actually cares. He said Luffy actually doesn't care. Luffy's pretty much ace in all but name (the main reason why Hancock's powers don't work on him).
I never knew that Eiji from Bakuman was inspired by Oda, but in hindsight, they couldn't have made it more obvious. This is a fantastic video, by the way. Really good shit.
The way I see the change in how the story is told is like this: After crossing into the New World the crew and even other pirates cant keep that pure adventuring kinda style anymore because of the 4 Emporers imposing their will and dictating the lands they claim is theirs, so its harder to just wander around. Also now that the Straw Hats are there its less about exploration but about completing the goal of finding One Piece. Thats how I personally see it, loved the video you did an amazing job telling the story!
50:00 : "it was never part of the story initially" Exchange between Chopper and Dr. Hiluluk in Episode 85: Chopper: "Doctor, What's a pirate?" Dr. Hiluluk: "A pirate? Pirates are great men of the sea. They have a body hard like stone, the eyes of an eagle, and a voice that tears the sky asunder!" I'm pretty sure it was planned. I grant you that Oda most likely developed the specific system on the run. But this conversation is unequivocal.
I don't know about that one. I mean, Ace was born in the South Blue and grew up in the East Blue, but Sogeking was born on Sniper Island, which is in your heart.
"Now that only matters because they think that the Dragon's talking to them, oh but no it wasn't a dragon talking, it was just the ass of a samurai, attached to a dragon, farting words." ..... well when you put it that way...

1:52:30 fun fact the ship falling from the sky RIGHT ABOVE GOING MARY was the final scene from the final episode of the 4kids version of the series. They ended the kiddie friendly version by making the kiddies think the entire crew had died to falling ship
😱
that is depressing.
4kids threw a tantrum by eventually realizing this was not the Saturday morning cartoon they were looking for. The series had too much material that they didn't want to try to localize for small children. Like the parts that involve people dying? For example.
So they took a shit on One Piece and abandoned it
@@Byssbod I remember reading somewhere that 4Kids actually just misunderstood what kind of show One Piece was, I think it was less that they were fuming at its mature content and more they were thinking "oh god he stabs his freaking eye and this blonde prick is holding a gun to the glasses bitch's head what have we gotten ourselves into!?"
@@Byssbod no? They just didn't renew the licence lol.
Oda is a freaking dinosaur in his field of work now. He's even given interviews talking about how he's the last guy standing from his generation of manga writers. Not because the other guys were necessarily unpopular, but since many of the writers he broke into the field with are already dead from heart attacks/embolisms, as they literally broke down from working 60hrs+ a week for years on end.
Hell at this point, many of the new mangaka coming to work for Shonen Jump weren't even born when Oda started One Piece.
You have to have a special breed of self-confidence to ignore Morikawa and make that statement.
@@hundredpercentjuice Shonen Jump vs Weekly Shonen Magazine, beyond that the fact still stands you can count on one hand notable mangaka still going from the early 90's

@@The_Ninja_Tree, Pre-Timeskip always had Haki introduced, but they just called it different names at the time, so I honestly don’t how anybody could call Haki itself a retcon because it’s always been an established fighting structure in One Piece such as Sanji’s Diable Jambe, Garp’s Fist of love, or Zoro cutting steal in half all being different forms of Armament Haki; the Skypians calling Observational Haki Mantra, and Shanks had Conquers Haki all the way back in the very beginning of the series in the anime/manga.
@@RoronoaZoro-ur6hr yeah, but it wasnt named haki tho.
@@The_Ninja_Tree, that’s a fair point that the different forms of Haki that I mentioned weren’t called Haki until the Amazon Lily Arc-Post Timeskip Arcs, but they still existed from the very beginning of the series, so to say Haki is a retcon in the world of One Piece is a huge lie.

People go on and on about good Oda's memory is and about how he's been planning this series in one for or another his entire life but the fat that he made up all 11 Supernovas less then a month before introducing them will always be the most impressive thing he's even done as a writer in my eyes. From that one last minute decisions came not only a 10/10 story arc in the form of Sabaody but pretty much every notable event in the New World. Yes Oda has been planning major plot points for a long time but here's an example of him making something up on the spot and unfolding that into years of fantastic content.
Seriously! I can't even imagine what the series would look like without the supernova's running amok in the new world.
Supernovas are not the only thing...when he was about to introduce Sanji(Initially named "Naruto"), he found out there was another Shounen Jump Series whose protagonist was named "Naruto", so he changed the name to "Sanji" and the fact that he created the whole Germa 66 thing is a stroke of genius imo.
@@gopalasrinivasa9516 While this is to my knowledge true I don't think its in the same ball park in terms on last minute changes. If we assume Oda had idea of the Germa in mind that far in advance when introducing Sanji, which I don't think we have any reason to think he did, then at most all this would have forced him to change is the names of Sanji's siblings. For clarity while I didn't but into the theory that Sanji was a prince before the Germa reveal I have since accepted that the foreshadowing was there but this doesn't mean that the entire Germa cast and plot line of Whole Cake island was fully developed as far back as Sanji's introduction as I've seen others suggest in the past. Idk I just feel like the introduction of 11 brand new characters who would go on to become major antagonists and allies with a months notice is quite a few magnitudes more impressive then Oda being humble and pragmatic enough to recognize it would be wise to change his new characters name so as to not risk clashing with a new series.
This. I've always told people that Oda himself has said he doesn't actually plan ahead as much as people think he does. I mean there are some obvious moments where he clearly did, but I believe a lot of what people think is astounding foreshadowing is actually the opposite. I think instead of just planning literally everything decades ahead, Oda just doesn't EVER forget any characters or places that he makes up. As a result, many come into relevance way later, but not because he was thinking that far in the future, but in the future decided to use a character that would make sense to be in that arc that most people assumed was gone. A good example of this is probably Silvers Raleigh, Roger's first mate. Oda has stated that at the beginning of the series he never meant for it to get nearly as long as it is today. This means it was unlikely he planned to have Raleigh be as important and pivotal as he ended up being. But Oda has a knack for being able to bring characters back in a bit way that doesn't seem like he's just picking random old characters from a bag, but rather reintroducing them at a moment and arc that both makes sense for their own journey and connects to the arc in important ways.
Basically, he's a genius.
the thing is that one piece is apparently the only story oda has ever wanted to tell. he has school notebooks with scrawled doodles of early luffy designs in them simply titled "pirate manga". as far as i can tell, this story is the only one that has been in oda's head since the day he was born.
so no, he hasn't planned the entire story out beat for beat and moment to moment. but what he has done over the years is internally gone over every permutation he can think of for how the story COULD play out. some things are already known, he's probably known what the one piece is since he was 10, but he knows every possible storyline he feels he could tell by introducing certain characters in certain arcs, and by remembering all the possible variations of one piece, he can turn random details from earlier in the story into full blown foreshadowing (shanks scares off a sea king, zoro senses his sword when it's out of sight, eneru and aisa use mantra to feel the life around them, gold roger is somehow the strongest man who ever lived while lacking a devil fruit, haki wasn't planned but these details set the stage for it to happen), and that allows the story to be cohesive even though what actually ends up on the page is made up on a whim.
since oda knows ever possible permutation of the story, he already knew what the consequences would be for introducing the supernovas, so adjusting his timetable was as simple as "drawing new character designs", you know, that thing oda hates doing and would never waste time with by making every background character unique? right, what a hassle that must have been for him, "the editor says i have to make a bunch of new characters to play with? 'kay!"
This reminds me of the time I had an 8 hour long shift with my boss and he explained the entirety of Naruto to me.
No I didn't retain anything
That's because Naruto started sucking around volume 12-ish and it never stopped sucking.
People tell me how retarded it is by the end and it's absurd. It makes every mistake a longrunning series can make. Also Naruto is a massive hypocrite and cringy and fuck to watch.

Most people don't want to start reading One Piece because it's so long now, but I think right now is possibly the best moment to do it, considering the last chapter and where we're heading over the next few chapters. To be fair, I'd say any time is a great time to start, but so much is coming together right now. I can't imagine how epic it must be to binge it over a month or two and see everything come together and culminate in the peak of the current arc, with every bit of foreshadowing and reference still fresh in mind. The entire series is about to come crashing together and I seriously can't wait.

I understand that there's a LOT to go through within the series but you can't just bring up these concepts during the intro and not point out moments of the story where they show up.

Him waving the flag outside of doctoreins place still makes me tear up
There is so much stuff that has happened since this video was released. It would probably be hard and I understand if it's not possible, but I think a followup video would be great.
ikr
everyone is not here!
well, Nate is somewhat alive
Ben - perished
Oliver - dead
Digi - deceased
Munchy - gone

Munchy asking whether or not one piece, after all this time, is still topping itself and Nate enthusiastically stating that it really is.
Thank you Goda for rewarding us long time fans. We can't wait to see what's in store.
Still hoping the ball doesn't get dropped but if it does at least we got 1000 fantastic chapters of romance, boys and girls.
I’m rereading one piece and I think early one piece might be better than TS one piece. It was so much funnier, with serious moments and a focus on all of the crew.
@@TubemastaC I disagree with this. I mean if you liked pre timeskip better than that's your opinion, which is fine, but I find that it's a huge misconception that post timeskip is less funny and has less heartwarming scenes. I will admit that the crew gets split up quite a bit in the post timeskip arcs (which happens in pre timeskip too actually, but they always congregated at the beginning and end of every arc), but the amount of little interactions (often between the straw Hats and new characters) that occur that aren't directly plot related is quite astounding, actually.
I believe this misconception happens because of stakes. Pre timeskip was essentially the straw Hats fucking around and having fun. Post timeskip is endgame time, meaning the crew has to fight the emperor's of the sea and actually confront the extremely dark and twisted world around them (And within them too. Totland is post timeskip enies lobby).
I've been rereading One Piece as well and I'd say the only real downgrade after the timeskip is that we haven't had a emotionally climactic moment that can rival water seven and enies lobby. And even this can only be attributed to the fact that Oda is building up to it, rather than being unable to create another one.
One Piece is just as hilarious as it's always been, just as optimistic and cheerful, and just as emotional (just because it didn't peak as hard as enies lobby doesn't mean it doesn't have insanely emotional moments).
And some people complain about character design, which fair enough, but is 100% an opinion and not a valid critical comment.
@@TubemastaC
And to address your comment about serious moments, I'm assuming you mean crew related considering post timeskip is way more serious in general than pre timeskip, it's true that the crew doesn't really have any too many drama moments within (if you totally ignore Sanji's entire arc), but if you think about it this is definitely a good thing. It would be repetitive and bog the story down. Remember, we're trying to reach raftel and find the one piece, not watch a sitcom about the straw Hats.
Ok, but the fact that I was smiling the entire time for this almost 5 hour lecture speaks to the greatness of both One Piece and the production
Gonna take this guys advice and not spoil the series, I’ll be back when I’m done
How you finding it? Can we add another to the crew?
See you in 8 months
Good luck see you next year
Best decision you've done, bro. Hope u like it :)
See you next year.
The disrespect for Chopper is disheartening ;-; he did not mention his power up during Enies Lobby
Because chopper is the weakest written MC is the whole series
@Craig Donnelly
Still no reason for the disrespect
@@ACey96 strenght hardly equals relevance though (not to mention he's the youngest with 2 years younger than Luffy and 3 or more than all the others), talking about him as if he's just a mascot when he's also an important part of the crew dynamic is pretty shitty, considering their friendship is one of THE main selling points of one piece
Tamara Pinter he said weakest WRITEN. which I 100 percent agree with. he literally has no importance to the larger story. and is kinda just the “cute” one.
@@midshipman8654 lmao yeah chopper is the "cute" one, just like Sanji is the "pervert", Usopp is the scaredy cat and Nami is the one with the hot temper. You can reduce any Strawhat down to their baisc comic relief traits that Oda has assigned them.
Saying he has no importance to the larger story is just plain wrong. He's not a strong fighter but he is their backbone when it comes to treatment after the fights. None of the Strawhats have fallen gravely ill so we don't see it on screen, but it's his dream to be able to cure any disease. Oda wrote Chopper because he will be the only one to achieve that dream, same as Zoro reaching his and becoming best swordsman. As the King of Pirate Luffy will need the best, and considering how often he used techniques that shorten his life span, Chopper will play a huge role in that.
Dismissing Chopper just bc he isn't in the middle of the fighting is just pretty dumb if u ask me. Like sure he is far from my favorite character, but he has his own important position to fill
I can’t believe it, after all these years of telling myself that I won’t get into One Piece cause it’s just too much content, BGE has convinced me to read the manga half way through the video. I don’t know when or how I’ll find the time to do so in my busy ass life, but this lecture has convince me to start my journey. Thanks for the inspiration BGE.
We’ll be waiting for you in the land of Wano
How's it coming along?
Ahoy from Elbaf!
30 minutes in:
Why am i watching this? I already up to date with one piece!

Ok this is kinda fun to watch
4 hours and 40 minutes:
Aaaaand done. wow what a ride

“The Buddha, famous for his shockwave blasts.”
Was what finally killed me. Hahahaha
"you're gonna receive some enlightenment, whether you like it or not"
Buddha: guess what guys I got enlightened
Kingdom: oh yea prove it
Buddha: check this shit out *farts out shockwave, destroys palaces*
The funny thing is that the Buddha *is* famous for his palm-shockwave blasts. Like, that's literally one of his abilities.
I'm on whole cake island and I really feel his pain at having to skip over so many details in recounting the many, *many* adventures of the Straw Hats.
Listening to someone passionately talk about something they love is amazing.
Almost 5 hours...who needs to sleep really
Just do what I do. Fall asleep to the dulcet tones of Nate screeching autistically about my favorite franchises.
"They trained under garp for a year or 2" canonically its been like 2 months lmao
Marines got the hyperbolic time chamber
BGE: yeah we havent seen jinbei in years
Newest manga chapter: allow me to introduce myself
Omg this is brilliant because its LITERALLY allow me to introduce myself
I've been following One Piece for a decade now, and I still learned shit from BGE's lecture here. Dude's a champ Chad.
Probably missed my window to write this by 24+ hours, but I wanted to quickly explain Gear 2nd and Gear 3rd:
It's a massive distinction that Luffy isn't a Logia type. He is always rubber, and more importantly if you take a cross-section of his body you will find muscle tendon, bone, and blood vessels. With Gear 2nd, he pools his blood in his legs by compressing the bones down, then catapults the blood through his body. Since his arteries and heart are made of rubber, they can take the strain of the drastically increased blood speed, thus increasing the speed his body can move.
Gear 3rd, or "Bone Balloon" has Luffy bite into his thumb and inflates his bones. The reason this does more damage is because the Bones are a thicker material. It's the difference between getting hit by balloon, and a Monster Truck Tire.
Really puts into perspective how powerful the "muscle ballon covered in Armament Haki" (aka Gear 4th) really is. Imagine several truck tires being catapulted into you several times, while they're all covered in titanium. Really scary stuff.
the simple way to understand gear 2nd (because 3rd is easy and if you understand 2nd and 3rd, the 4th is a laugh) is that luffy is pulsing his body. he's basically vibrating at high speed but forcing himself to remain still, then when he chooses to move, he simply relaxes in the direction he wants to go and rockets off. the medium he's pulsing in that case is his blood, which would make a normal cardiovascular system explode, but luffy's stretchy so he's fine.
3rd is just him inflating his bones, it's pretty simple.
4th is where it gets interesting, because by inflating his muscles and then pulsing the air in his muscles in specific ways like he did with his blood, he essentially becomes a balloon that can direct its own motion. combine that with his natural strength and the damage-boost from haki, and he becomes a supersonic balloon that can break a building in half by running into it. snakeman, boundman and tankman are each different levels of combining the pulsing, the haki and the inflation, resulting in a very diverse technique base possible for gear 4th.
That's not how balloons work.
@@Yal_Rathol to add when he is in ger2. His metabolism is allso accelerated and his lifespan shortens
@@maxthommesen9315 only because he was doing it wrong.
This is thr greatest OP video on the planet. Pls continue to add to this if humanly possible. I drive overnight for work and I've relistened to this I think for the 4th time all the way through tonight. Truly appreciated
As another point on Luffy's sexuality when talking about the Amazon Lily thing: Oda said a while back in an SBS, I believe during Alabasta, that he only draws Luffy reacting to naked women with everyone else for the sake of looking uniform. Literally just because he thinks it'd look weird if he didn't react. Not because Luffy actually cares. He said Luffy actually doesn't care. Luffy's pretty much ace in all but name (the main reason why Hancock's powers don't work on him).
I never knew that Eiji from Bakuman was inspired by Oda, but in hindsight, they couldn't have made it more obvious.
This is a fantastic video, by the way. Really good shit.
The way I see the change in how the story is told is like this: After crossing into the New World the crew and even other pirates cant keep that pure adventuring kinda style anymore because of the 4 Emporers imposing their will and dictating the lands they claim is theirs, so its harder to just wander around. Also now that the Straw Hats are there its less about exploration but about completing the goal of finding One Piece. Thats how I personally see it, loved the video you did an amazing job telling the story!
is this just 4 hours of jessie slowly realizing that one piece is just like wrestling. gimmicks, faceturns and all.
It's not slowly. Shounen anime has been big muscle boys flexing each other to death since DBZ.

WHEN'S THE DEVILMAN LECTURE, I NEED THE TIME LOOP EXPLAINED TO MUNCHY
50:00 : "it was never part of the story initially"
Exchange between Chopper and Dr. Hiluluk in Episode 85:
Chopper: "Doctor, What's a pirate?"
Dr. Hiluluk: "A pirate? Pirates are great men of the sea. They have a body hard like stone, the eyes of an eagle, and a voice that tears the sky asunder!"
I'm pretty sure it was planned. I grant you that Oda most likely developed the specific system on the run. But this conversation is unequivocal.
"Oh fuck, that's so cool"
The energy behind that phrase was perfect
The funniest thing is when he tries to explain one piece powers. Idk man it's so hard to do and so funny to see the confusion
The bazooka can turn into a dog!
The Marines using super soakers instead of guns is actually genius
Read one piece, almost five hours long video is mere child's play
Everyone knows sogeking IS Ace, and this lecture is usoppist propaganda
True
I don't know about that one. I mean, Ace was born in the South Blue and grew up in the East Blue, but Sogeking was born on Sniper Island, which is in your heart.
I can feel guy holding up tears when talking about going merry's funeral
"Now that only matters because they think that the Dragon's talking to them, oh but no it wasn't a dragon talking, it was just the ass of a samurai, attached to a dragon, farting words." ..... well when you put it that way...
