Straw Hat 597+598

Y'know, watching One Piece over like this there are so many times we are given hints for later on. Not only in this episode, but all over. Oda back in his studio a few years back giggling away in a corner.

"unless they're considering oxygen as a gas" But oxygen IS a gas no?

It's wild to me that people would just shit on content creators for things they aren't even interested in watching, (different when they are being bullies themselves, but I digress). I was first introduced to Alicia through her watching the Sonic Boom clips, then invincible, and she was so chill, but also talked a lot of shit on Rex-Splode (which he deserved), and it was hilarious seeing her struggle with Omni Man saying, 'aww how sweet' to 'NO!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME!?!?!'. I think it was also through those videos I found out we shared a Birthday, which is awesome since I suck at remembering birthdays, so I am always able to remember hers! Then there was the One Piece openings reactions and her saying she is getting ready to react to them, I could not subscribe fast enough... XD Love your content, love you (platonically)! You are the GOAT!

Shrapnel

16:00 Luffy goes "I'm not even at half health after that" lol

Silver Blade

Ultraman, yeah, is like a martial arts style developed by the marines to be used with haki later for the pro operatives Combining haki with the 6 techniques is kinda op, actually

Faroth

Oda confirmed that iron body isnt armament haki, is similar and can be combined for a stronger bult up but is not the same

Faroth

nevermind i checked to see if there is any character spoiler and it would be best if she react to it after the next arc end

millecamps

wait i just realized i don't think she reacted to the one piece "hungry days" ad am i wrong? if i am right we should ask her to react to it.

millecamps

except armorment which is iron body but can't explain why without spoiler

major charmander

I usually just comment a part of an episode i like alicias reaction to. But to your point alicia is the only person second guessing a luffy(Oda) statement. Luffy saying that zoro & sanji have haki was confirmation of armenent haki since ceaser is logia and she still questioned it. Like isaid, shestrying to clever when alot is face value.

Calib Allen

Actually I believe the Six Paths are a training exercise to prepare navy soldiers to be able to use Haki. Or at least those who prove worthy enough to either become a CP9 agent or a vice admiral, since we do see a few during the paramount war use them.

UltramanUltimo

Would credit Caesar for being able to take a lot of punishment. I mean if you can get up repeatedly after taking full force blows from Luffy that is certainly something.

ChaosSepher

I haven said anything we havent see yet, the giant pinch, the spinning attacks, the inhalation in cartoonish style, the eating until is a globe, all is a looney toon and tom&jerry style 😂🤣☝️😏

Faroth

The 6 techniques used by the CP-9 arent Haki, they probably can use haki since they could use normal attacks and the 6 techniques to damage luffy with punches, but the 6 techniques by themselves arent considered to be using haki, as Alicia said, Koby cpuld use the speed technique before he unlocked his haki, so those are just a style of martial arts in the one piece world, and yes, is fair to think they are similar, and that those can be combined for a stronger fighter. I mean, Rob Lucci probably used a weak haki against luffy...

Faroth

The Haki showing up as a black coat is just an effect for US the viewers to know that is a powerful haki, but haki can be used slightly just like when Luffy grabbed Caesar, he is not using a strong amount og haki, just enough to grab him, si the most effects it show up, the stronger it gets, like the hak puch he used against Hordy, that even show up glames as an effect to show is a powerful fist based on Ace's punch Zoro and Sanji do have Haki but so far they just used soft hits and mostly observation haki

Faroth

You can say he literally "sounded free" of that gas

Faroth

Franky was playing fortnite on thriller bark before fortnite was a thing🤣😂 You have to remember Alicia, he's had two years to learn. On the island and while on the crew everybody was telling him he was doing it the wrong way. He's learned just slightly.

Shuuuut it its a secret man :)

Alex

In world, haki is invisible. Oda intended to depict it that way but it quickly got confusing to try and differentiate who was using haki and who wasn't. That's how they got to using the black effect. As you've stated, this isn't consistent especially in early post-timeskip. However, the point of the comment was to highlight the opposite, everytime a character has the dark effect, it's a sign of the use of armament. It's not a character exclusive depiction of haki.

Jay P.

Armament isn't always black. Luffy didn't have to turn his hands black to grab Caeser this episode, and it's far from the only example. I imagine pretty much any attack from Luffy, Zoro and Sanji has haki on it. I don't remember Sanji ever even turning his legs black, doesn't mean he's not using haki.

rando

Ussop is courage and nami is 'magic'(?) She has a magic wand and in timeskip she studied with wizards

Faroth

Looney tunes sh1t? Oda himself once said he based Luffy on Tom&Jerry and the looney tunes animation style but fighting in an anime style, so prepare yourself because that explanation will only escalate higher and higher from now on 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

Faroth

I'm pretty sure when it's shown as black it's just black. People really should stop liking your comment, it's just misinformation that you present as facts. MASSIVE SPOILERS ALICIA DON'T SCROLL DOWN THE COMMENT Are the marks on gear 4 just black in our mind...? Same with Mihawk's swords? In this arc Vergo turns himself entirely black. Was that also just in our mind? Why was Smoker so shocked to see that, then? Why would it keep showing us this same effect that only we can see? Plus, it's the manga too. Black haki is just black.

rando

Can we get props for Tashigi(Smoker)'s shirt in this? He's been going crazy in her body with that shirt unbuttoned bot she hasn't flashed her yitties even once.

Wil DeYoung

Caesar has an interesting power bc it's not just a single gas, but I think just any gas that can exist he can change himself into. Don't quote me tho lol Also to the Luffy explosion thing. He's just REALLY strong and fast now. We haven't seen anything yet

Ej

37:30 Let it be henceforth and forever recorded that in the year of our lord.... 37 minutes into this shit... Alicia hath declared our favourite Kin'emon a "Fine cut of meat" That is all, thank you

Slurp

You were right Alicia. Some Looney Tunes-Ass shit xP And yaaay~ Alicia staying watching a mid-episode transitions ^^ I think they're all pretty cute 8) Alicia trying to figure out how Ceasar is invisibly beating everyone. Meanwhile, me: "I don't... *remember* the answer. So... I don't *think* it's important? ^^' " Also, you're doing GREAT making guesses Alicia!Don't mind us. You make a lot of assumptions about HAKI, but *who cares*?! And yeah, like you say, the show *over*-explains everything eventually. So it's all good ^^ Sanji: The Element of Kindness (Zoro would be Loyalty, no doubt)

DaniDeFig

Caesar is a fucking twig compared to Luffy in terms of strength, but his intelligence combined with his DF, makes him just as dangerous.

UltramanUltimo

People just straight up spoiling stuff with their emotes because Alicia made a reasonable guess for that point in time is really dumb. The reveal is in the same arc so just let it be guys.

ZackdasBohne

I understand where you're coming from but I think there's quite a lot of pressure watching the show with thousands of viewers. And I don't think it helps when people overwhelm her in the chat whenever she makes a mistake. I do try to leave some comments in her videos but yeah, a paywall comment would definitely be better. Regardless, I do still enjoy her content and her confusion doesn't necessarily shatter the story. I'm sure she'll figure it out soon.

Jay P.

I hope someone could send the money to give this exact description. Its kinda annoying alicia isnt putting the rayleigh explanation of haki together with post time skip visuals. Alicia i think is overthinking instead of putting 2&2 together.

Calib Allen

Luffy was seeming quite free there for a min

Emperor Moist

Anzac-A1

Haki is technically invisible, but that black coating is an effect to show even more intense Armament Haki

Rej

Armorment Haki can be both invisible and black depending on how strong it is. Zoro uses some Armorment Haki with his swordplay but he hasn't yet needed to use full Armorment.

Alicia Barkley

As Lightinger said, all you’re really expected to know at this point is that Caesar is working for “Joker”(not the World Government) and Vergo and Monet are two of Joker’s Agents. You should be getting some more insight into what’s really going on at Punk Hazard in the next couple of episodes or so. And I’m looking forward to the “Joker reveal reaction as well as the reaction to Momonuske.

BakaSama

What do you think Chopper spent two years learning?

Randomocity732

Didn't expect an upload this early so that's a welcome surprise😊 1) In terms of haki, Armament is always shown with the black coating, it's not exclusive to Luffy. It's just for the sake of visualisation in fights post timeskip. 2) Luffy mentioning that Zoro and Sanji can both use haki wasn't an assumption on his part. If you remember, even though Luffy was the first to sense Caribou when he attempted to kidnap Shirahoshi, both Zoro and Sanji could also sense him. That was observation. Between the two, Sanji has a better mastery of observation while Zoro is better at armament. The rest of the things will make sense as you progress the arc. Can't wait for more.

Jay P.

The dead silence as steam billows from Luffy's ears was priceless! Shit is getting dark, we have child experimentation and drug addiction after all... but that just means Oda is going to go the extra mile to make sure we get wacky hi-jinks to keep things from going too grim.

Seraphem

At this point you really are expected know that someone called Joker is in charge here
