Thinking About Little Luffy Being So Interested In The Beetles And Butterflies He Saw Around In The Woods

I just preferred shanks to be the interesting one with more layers rather than twist done to death by every comic book in history

that's valid honestly, i can't even argue with that because that IS an overused trope lmao. but i think this will be an opportunity to see a new side of shanks, one that isn't shrouded in mystery, but instead open, emotional and dramatic.

let's just hope oda will surprise us (like he often does), maybe he will use the trope in a way that positively serves the plot!

BEPO!!!! BEPO IS HERE!!!!!!!!

this is our first time seeing a member of the heart pirates in more than one year if i'm not mistaken... i'm so happy i could cry... it fills my heart with joy seeing bepo safe and bandaged up. i can't wait to find out who's taking care of them, and most importantly i can't wait to see law again </3

Sabo Week Day 1 - Flames

happy sabo week everyone!!

just a heads up: this and my last entry will be the only shaded/finished pieces for the week bc, u guessed it, i ended up being pretty busy :') i hope u can enjoy this journey with me nonetheless!

core four heart pirates my beloveds <3

novel law's english localization has just been announced!!!

even though my first language isn't english and we already have an official localization where i live, i'm still celebrating. i hope this gets more people interested in the novel! it's full of information on how the heart pirates were born, and it gives a new perspective on law and how he manages grief. i think it's a must read for every heart pirates fan, so i'm glad they finally decided to publish an official english translation. make sure to grab a copy when it's out!

by the way i'm a firm believer in the "gunko is victoria" theory. i know it's far-fetched and honestly sounds pretty insane, but i'm praying for it to be true simply because of the massive angst potential for kid and killer. like, i'm sure it's not going to be real but i still hope it is, you know?

he wont leave me alone !!!!!!!!

i don't get how people could think that law is going to be part of the strawhats. he has his own crew. are the heart pirates nothing to them? do these people just ignore their existence, or do they think law is the type to, i don't know, abandon them forever to go be part of another pirate crew? law would never do that, and never in his life has he shown interest in doing that. he's not going to be part of the straw hat pirates. he has his own thing going on, he said it multiple times.
