One Piece Episode 248 UNCUT REACTION!

Comments

ORO means gold in spanish ...

Javier Enrique

Yeah i wished streaming services like crunchyroll or netflix do subtitles like actual fan-subs with using japanese onomatopoeia in text and name attack texts being animated.

Zannen Da

i have watched the first half/500ish ep's of one piece like, say, roughly at least six times by now since 2010. i NEVER NOTICED THAT IN THE ED, or franky's parents were pirates let alone that they abandoned him. these like split-second details, yo

Yagi di Hoshi

i am really, REALLY, so happy you both seem to be really enjoying this.

Yagi di Hoshi

In the manga, the actual context of Tom's speech pattern is that he always uses the word "DON!" or "do it with a DON!" --- so like, "if you're doing something, do it with a DON! (instead of resolutely like the anime translated it...same idea but yeah)

One piece just does an excellent job of tying everything together with backstory’s

Jeremy

just because there's some vague similarity between the two doesn't mean that's where the inspiration came from. It has never been stated by Oda that this is the case.

Skele

Thoroughly enjoying the reactions to these. Looking forward to more!

SomeoneElse

in spanish

Tom is 5 meters shipwriter? :D Luffy we found him! hahaha

Jack Shadow

I miss the good old days.

Zannen Da

W backstory

Insane how you can go to literally hating a character to loving a character so fast and wow didn't know they showed the Shadow of Merry 😭

Whoopsie

wow, cool that you bring up Tom's "do it with a don" that's actually the fansub I remember wayback 2006 when Toei doesn't yet simultaneously releasing an official english subs. Fansubbers do theirs when japanese raw version comes out along with awesome fonts... Crunchyroll or Toei translates it with just "resolutely"

I might be misremembering, but I think "Oro Jackson" supposed to be references to Gold Roger's name & title: "Oro" gold in spanish, & "Jackson" after the "King" of Pop (Michael Jackson). Then there's also the reference to "The Pillars of the Earth" like someone else mentioned, but also "Thomas the Tank Engine" => Puffing Tom

Dancing Viru

Three quick & totally insignificant clarifications. Tom ends most his sentences in "do it with a Don", as in the onomatopoeia Don(/Bang) that you often see in manga. His tattoo is similar to, but not the same one as, the Arlong Pirates'. And most importantly W reaction!

The montage of them putting all the hard work during those 10 years is so emotional for some reason. Man, i really love how subtle the little dots are connected, like Pauli, Kiwi and Mozu, and even Yokozuna learning the front crawl. Franky forcing a reaction out of Blueno especially that Oda has establish he's the "iron body" guy is a great show of his power.

EOussama

Fun fact, now that you're at 250, Tom is based on "Tom Builder", from the novel "The Pillars of the Earth", who: - is a mason and architect that dreams of building a grand cathedral - has a biological son named Alfred & adopts another "son" named "Jack" - faces numerous challenges and conflicts with powerful figures - tought all his knowledge to his 2 pupils/sons, before he gets killed - has 1 of his 2 pupils (adoptive son Jack) finish his dream for him So yeah, as others have said, "Oro" means Gold, though I also love the sea serpent tie-in, and the "Jackson" part (which also could, considering the last story beat, be read as "Jack's son") likely comes from this novel.

klairvoyage

i think it more likely that oro come from spanish oro mean gold and jackspon is a name so maybe a relative of gold roger ?

azope

oro means gold

Hansen

W backstory. W toms workers.

SB

The theory of the snake snake fruit is really good (for me) tbh πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

ViviMay

Thanks for the episode! Interesting discussion too. Regarding the name Oro Jackson, I always thought it was rather because Oro means "Gold" in Spanish/Italian, but the idea of greatness etc would still be there either way.

VongoGai

"Oro" means gold in Spanish, so it might be a reference to Roger's full name. Idk about the "Jackson" part, maybe Oda just thought it sounded cool. Btw it's cool how Franky was the one to finally make one of the CP9 budge just a little. They seemed so untouchable until now, Blueno was kinda sweating for a minute there.
