Had A "single Woman In Your Area" Bot Message Me On Here. Dude. My Blog's Picture Looks Like I'm In Primary

Doflamingo X OC Sofia! 2 variants.

Every morning he combs her hair with his strings! At the start he still had to use two hands but now he's so practised he can do it one-handed.

The background is from google, a free-for-use commercial one!

And then this is the simple background version.

I just finished putting together a playlist for #kidpiratesmonth2025 !

Just gonna link the names of the songs here + my thoughts for why I chose them for Kidd! Spoilers for the 1100s ^^

Songs used: 00:00 - 04:21 - Headliners - Eustass Kid + Trafalgar law

-> Ain't explainin' nutin'

04:22 - 08:37 - Eluveitie - The Call of The Mountain

-> I believe that this song is played on pipebags, and well, Kidd's a scot! + Rock music. I personally like the cover by Alina Gingertail best. She's a redhair, just like Kidd!

Plus, the lyrics add up perfectly.

"Against the waves, with our swords in our hands Against the sea, with our backs to the walls Against distress, in the presence of our enemies Against the storms, roaring at our faces"

08:38 - 12:15 - Katy Perry - Hot n Cold

-> This one's mostly just a joke on Kidd's tsundere tendencies.

12:16- 16:41 - Eluveitie - A Rose for Epona

-> I just really like Eluveitie's style for Kidd. Again I much prefer the Alina Gingertail cover, she's taken the original work and made something even more special out of it.

I also like the imagery of this:

"While hopes bog like condemned men"

Together with the idea of impending defeat, well, Kidd does have the unfortunate habit of having Yonkos beating his butt up.

16:42 - 20:14 - Avril Lavigne - Here's to never growing up

-> A less meaningful, positive party song for a party-heavy crew.

Avril is another favourite pick of mine for Kid. Cursing, getting drunk and having a good time are all things I associate with him!

In a way, I also like to think of it as a song for Kidd before life hardened him, he got betrayed, and stopped trusting folks altogether.

20:15 - 22:26 - Waterparks - I miss having sex but at least I don't wanna die anymore

-> Another one of the weak adds, if you go super experimental with this then you could directly interpret it as "he misses Victoria but he's over wanting to die now", but eh.

I just think it's a fun and crass song and therefore I'd like to stick it to him like a "kick me" post-it.

In a way it's also about not meeting expectations but it's definitely still one of the weaker songs out of these.

Also, I used the gif with water splashing on Kidd that everybody thirsts over in the playlist. Oh I can post gifs here! Lemme update everything.

22:27 - 25:43 - I don't know how but they found me - Choke

-> The Kidd pirates don't exactly hold back on violence, so I love some violent songs for them! Plus I found a gif of Kidd grabbing the camera + grabbing the head of a Beast Pirate so it's freaking perfect.

Lyrics:

"Now shut your dirty mouth If I could burn this town I wouldn't hesitate To smile while you suffocate and die And that would be just fine And what a lovely time, that it would surely be So bite your tongue And choke yourself to sleep"

25:44 - 28:42 - The Offspring - You're gonna go far, Kid(d)

-> I mean, do I have to explain a single thing?

God I love this song. Every single time it plays I get up and dance to it. So I didn't play it while making this playlist. That would have been counterproductive and a great workout.

Also, god I love how much love they gave to Kidd and Law during the Big Mom fight!! <333

28:43 - 32:17 - Mother Mother - Hayloft II

-> A weaker addition, but it's epic enough to deserve being in a Kidd playlist. Murder + rock = good time + Kidd pirates

32:18 - 34:46 - The Boys - You've got a license to drive (me crazy)

-> Ehhhh. Another weak add. Kinda romance Kid but also mostly because The Boys is such a brutal show.

34:47 - 38:10 - Panic! at the disco - Death of a bachelor

-> More romance Kid! I don't have any good reason, sorry. I put this in my Killer playlist (not made yet, only on spotify) too, but ehhhh. I really regret not finding a fitting AJJ song in hindsight haha.

Oh dammit you can't put more than 10 video links on these :'( So hard picking a top 10!

38:11 - 40:42 - Fish in a Birdcage - Rule #27 - Drunk on Pride

-> This one I really really like because it's got some lyric accuracy!

"Deep inside a trench, no light can reach You might find the skull of a ship that was breached [...] Captain of his ship has nothing but time To watch his dream die as he gets drunk on pride Long after they lost their names 'Cross the sea in a battle of waves Rushing through the rocks, they pass through the caves Remnants of ash drifting outside their vase Weapons that are used were buried away Flags that were torn get lost in a page Barely any scars left from the good old days"

I love the imagery of the sunk Victoria Punk (skull of a ship?? it's perfect! maybe this is standard ship terminology that I'm unfamiliar with, but still!)

A lot of people accuse Kidd of being too prideful and therefore being defeated by Shanks, and think of that what you will, but that means that this song fits perfectly!

40:43 - 43:48 - Dangerous

-> I really love this song for him! It's just oozing confidence and cockiness. Plus cursing and fucking around (literally). I don't know. Just hits the Kidd spot perfectly for me.

43:49 - 46:58 - George Barnett - Stone Cold Classic

-> Another one I really really like! It's hot stuff villain music if ya ask me. Cursing + oozing confidence. Plus rock-y something music. I don't know, I don't know the first thing about music.

"Fire up the flames I'll do you damage Instagram the blaze I'm Shere Khan savage

You don't have to ask You know I have it No, you don't have to ask I god damn have it

AKA's the name Got blind ambition Baddest in the game With Van Gogh vision

You don't have to ask You know I have it No, you don't have to ask I god damn have it"

46:59 - 50:27 - Muse - Supermassive Black Hole

-> This one I found on a different Kid playlist, so this ain't my idea at all! That was a great playlist. It's rock, it fulfills the Kid as a vampire fanfiction that I've never written, I mean what?, and I paired it with this gif of Kid eating because you know... black hole...

50:28 - 53:35 - Paramore - crushcrushcrush

-> Another find on a different Kid playlist! I added these two copycats because I'll be listening to these playlists a bunch too, so I don't want to miss out on these perfect fits for Kid. It's just perfect romance Kidd. Something my own romantic choices for him didn't manage at all. Heh.

53:36 - 57:18 - Evanescence - Bring me to Life

-> Now this is the absolute punk / emo whatever classic song, so... yeah. Belongs in here!

57:19 - 01:02:17 - Nirvana - Smells like teen spirit

-> I like this sort of vibe for the Kidd pirates - partying hard, banging their heads, with just a hint of self-hatred underneath!

01:02:18 - 01:06:22 - Avril Lavigne - Complicated

-> Another romance song for Kid. Mostly chosen for that idea of "don't pretend to be anyone else" that I think would be very present aboard the Kidd pirates. They're unapologetically themselves, so you should be too!

01:06:23 - 01:08:56 - Clarx, Catas, Le Malls - Numb the Pain

-> Another bout of fitting lyrics. I assume that even the most battle-hardened pirates might eventually succumb to the stress of the weather and practically every other human in the world wanting you dead, so I like these kind of reminiscent songs for the Kid Pirates. It's not like it's a major deal for them, but every now and then they just wanna fucking relax, ya know?

"I know we grew up a little too fast I miss the days that we'd chill and relax Where did the time go? It all passed Now I need to go back I had no worries but always have plans Only thing I did was take out the trash Now It's much harder to laugh Hard to get up and then work on my craft Feel like all of you hate me Everything's been so hard with all the situations lately Well maybe I'm done, maybe I've lost Still putting up a fight because [...]"

01:08:57 - 01:12:24 - Avril Lavigne - Smile

-> Some more happiness in between! Chosen for Kidd's wide smile and also ideally Killer eventually getting to be comfortable with his smile and laughter. Poor man.

01:12:24 - 01:15:56 - Tim McMorris - On Top of the World

-> I absolutely love this one! It's such a feel-good song and once more it's oozing confidence, fitting Kidd perfectly!

"I'm on top of the world, and now I'm livin' And the good just gets better, keeps on givin' Not even close to the end, it's just beginnin' Life is getting lighter While the days are getting brighter, yeah

And it's all good, I won't even worry anymore Took all my cares, took them, kicked them all, out the door Go on and try it, come on and tell me what you're waiting for Move and keep on going, till' your life is overflowing, yeah

I gotta celebrate life And get excited about Good times and good livin' Come on and shout it out, (hey!)

Take it up, take it over, take it out of control Today I'm freein' my soul, and now you got me singin'

I'm feelin' fine, smiling big, feelin' right like I should Life is better then good, yeah, you got me singin'

I'm standing up, on top of the world tonight And everything's working out, just right And while the world is spinning It's a brand new beginning I'm here finally winning (hey!) So, take it up, take it over, take it out of control Today I'm freeing my soul, and now you got me singin'

We gotta be the best, the best we can be And though sometimes we don't wanna Still we gotta chase our dreams Reach up, and reach high, because we're gonna pull on through And give it all we got, even though it can seem so hard to

Catch and make happen, but we can't start slackin', come on Do what ya gotta do to fight on So no matter what comes your way Nothin' can ruin your day or even wipe your smile away

By the time I'm up and outta my bed I got a hundred new ideas floatin' 'round in my head With a hope for tomorrow, a dream that I can see Of all the awesome things, the great people we could be"

I've copied most of it because... well. It's just coded perfectly for the future King of the Pirates!

01:15:57 - 01:20:04 - Fall Out Boy - The Phoenix

-> Kidd's about to raise like a Phoenix! From the supposed grave to heaven and above!

01:20:05 - 01:22:35 - Don't wanna be - The Score

-> More of a positive, laid back song about sticking to yourself!

"I don't ever wanna be someone who follows everybody else When everyone is busy out chasing I'll make another road myself Cause I know I was meant for something more There's gotta be something here worth fighting for"

01:22:36 - 01:25:59 - Fall Out Boy - Thnks Fr Th Mmrs

-> A nice wrap-up song for all the memories made along the way!

Thank you so much for reading this abysmally long post! I hope you could find some songs you enjoyed in here. None of the gifs are my own but stolen from the interwebs!

All art and animation credit to Toei Animation and Eiichiro Oda.

Just barely managed to cap it at 30 images and 10 links, phew!

Banshee and Law's first meeting!

He found her in a cardboard box, living on the streets on her own after she had escaped being enslaved to a celestial dragon (Saint Don Juan).

Just realized I haven't posted my other half-head drawings here yet either!

Doflamingo was the first, I had the least amount of practise for him.

Zoro came second...

And Kidd came third!

I cannot draw women for the life of me so let's ignore Hancock..

And finally, Ace, the newest addition to the lot ^-^

Wow! I've reached 1003 Following on Twitter!

(Plus whatever my body count is on here, I'm still like an old elderly grandmother when trying to use this site, can't find my way towards anything.)

Thank you so much to every single person who puts so very much effort into making all of this amazing (One Piece) art, shares their headcanons and OCs or simply takes the time and effort to be kind and encouraging to somebody else.

You absolutely rock!

Tumblr isn't letting me upload videos once more so... youtube it is!

Happy birthday, Penguin ^-^

Animation is in 4K and 60% traced from official animations (I cannot draw hands). Background is from episode 1093!

My PC really struggled in making this due to it being 4K.

Big thank you to @coffeetimeworks for helping me choose a scene for Penguin! Sorry that I couldn't draw him beaten and bloody, that was definitely above my skill level for this task, hehe. (I did try but it looked incredibly silly. Just as silly as Penguin's voice line here? Maybe. That's one still out for the jury to decide on.)

Happy birthday, Killer! Here's a playlist for his birthday. Enjoy!

Now youtube is a bit of a total bitch nuisance when it comes to uploading playlists, so I keep having to delete more and more songs out of it to make internationally accessible.

Which is why I've put the mp4 and mp3 versions of these playlist up on Google Drive! Feel free to download them and watch them from there. The mp4s are all in 480p with a low bitrate to make sure none of them exceed 1GB (having been up to 8GB of size before I reduced them!) but the mp3s are of course way smaller as well.

All of my playlists are over there - Ace, Kidd and Killer!

Without further ado, let's get into why I chose the songs for Killer!

GIFS + TEXT CONTAIN SPOILERS UNTIL (INCLUDING) WANO!!!!

1- Nobody's Soldier - Hozier

Killer's epiphet is "massacre soldier". I don't know if that's an epiphet he chose himself or if it was given to him, but in my mind it's like with Zoro's "pirate hunter" epiphet - it was given for some particular reason in the past, but doesn't necessarily fit anymore now.

I found this song while watching an absolutely incredible Ace AMV and really like it for Killer.

"Running with bulls, working my miracles" - Kidd as a bull, Killer keeping him back from any reckless decisions

"Choose between being a butcher or a pauper Honey, I'm taking no orders, I'm gonna be nobody's soldier" - The Kidd pirates don't take orders from anybody and neither does Killer just blindlessly follow Kidd's orders

"Sick to my skin, watching the news again Whatever you choose, you lose out in the long run" - Parallels with Killer being offered the smile fruit by Orochi to save Kidd

2 - Naked - Avril Lavigne

This one's for Killer's relation with Kidd, for whenever Kidd gets to know what Killer looks like under the mask and Killer starts to feel comfortable with that. Now that I think about it, it might as well apply to the entire crew.

I think there's a lot of vulnerability in Killer's insecurity about his face and laugh and this song captures that very insecurity perfectly.

"I wake up in the morning Put on my face The one that′s gonna get me Through another day

Then you came around me The walls just disappeared Nothing to surround me Keep me from my fears I′m unprotected See how I've opened up Oh, you've made me trust Cause I′ve never felt like this before

I'm trying to remember Why I was afraid To be myself And let the covers fall away Guess I never had Someone like you (To help me) To help me fit In my skin"

3 - Numb the Pain - Clarx, Catas, Le Malls

This song is one I've chosen for Kidd as well. I think it fits the tough survival game that is the Grand Line well. Being a pirate ain't all that easy, especially with being up against some absolute freaks of nature. The Kidd pirates are all about picking themselves back up after having been beaten down and Killer is no exception to this.

"Now It's much harder to laugh Hard to get up and then work on my craft Feel like all of you hate me Everything's been so hard with all the situations lately Well maybe I'm done, maybe I've lost Still putting up a fight because [...]"

4 - Iris - Goo Goo Dolls

This one's another one of the vulnerable songs. Not wanting to be seen by the world may be a little very on the nose, but it still fits, dammit!

"And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am"

5 - I found - Amber Run

Another vulnerable addition! This one sounds romantic on the surface, but I believe that it is a lot more extensive than that.

You could interpret it as his romantic love towards Victoria, the song's sad tone fitting her demise, or you could interpret it as the familial love of having a found family amongst the Kidd pirates, or single it down to the platonic love he shares with Kidd as the best of best friends. In which case the sad tones may relate to losing said found family / best friend.

"And I've moved further than I thought I could But I missed you more than I thought I would" - this passage could relate to Victoria!

"And I found love where it wasn't supposed to be Right in front of me Talk some sense to me"

6- Hero - Skillet

This song sounds pretty punk-ish to me. (Not that I know literally a single thing about punk music!) It's more on the rock side of things and fits fighting vibes well. I'm not sure who he'd be the hero for in this case, but there's definitely themes of not giving up and fighting to the end in the lyrics so I'll call it a good fit, like it or not!

7 - I deserve to bleed - Sushi Soucy

This one is a little painful. It's a lot about self-hatred and being so desperately unhappy with your own looks that you'd want to harm yourself, something that I think for Killer would be amped up to the extreme by the effects of the smile fruit.

Poor man! Please let them have nice things at some point again, Oda-sensei.

8 - I'm gonna win - Rob Cantor

Yet another Grand Line survival song! Am I choosing all of these for Killer because I feel like I don't really know his personality yet? Perhaps. Very likely. I need to do some in-depth research for this man.

I guess it's also a good matchup song for any of his fights, namely the one with Hawkins.

"But I'm gonna win, I'm gonna try I'll never lose, I'll never die You've seen me before, you'll see me again I'll never give up, I'll never give in 'Til I'm bloody and bruised 'Til I've broken my bones 'Til I won't be abused 'Til I'm laughing alone

It's hard to be charming and smart and disarming It's hard to pretend you're the best It's hard to fulfill everyone's expectations It's hard to keep up with the rest"

9 - In the End - Linkin Park

Another song for fighting! Looking at recent developments (not saying anything because the spoilers in here are for Wano) it rings even more true.

10 - Wonderful World - Chase Holfelder

This one's a complete turnaround on the initial theme of the song - it's way more disheartened and far more angry! Far more fitting of a battle-hardened "soldier" than anything joyful.

11 - Misery Business - Paramore

Paramore has the perfect type of vibe for the Kidd Pirates and you cannot change my mind.

Also it makes me very happy to have "matching" songs between artists for Kid and Killer. I originally had "Ain't it fun" from Paramore on the playlist too but don't deem that as fitting enough (and it doesn't match the other songs well enough in my opinion!)

Can we talk about how absolutely sick this gif is? Whoever animated this, I love you from the bottom of my heart.

12 - Behind Blue Eyes - The Who

Themes of insecurity, vengeance and sadness + blue eyes + saw a Killer artist make an artwork with this song = part of the Killer playlist!

13 - The Pretender - Foo Fighters

It's angry, it's rock and it's either about Killer fighting somebody he considers a pretender or fighting himself, considering himself a pretender, being hidden away under the guise of his mask!

Or something something Kamazo (I haven't watched Wano yet I cannot possibly talk about this without making a fool of myself)

14 - Breaking my Bones - Friday Pilots Club

"For all of the stars to come down" - I like to think of this as a metaphor for bringing down all of the established order, making Kidd the new king of the pirates.

I like the vibes of this song for him and once again it's about fighting, picking yourself up and giving it your all! ... I feel very unimaginative having chosen so many of the same type for him. Sorry, Killer fans!!

15 - Body Terror Song - AJJ

I did really go all out with the "body shame" for this Killer playlist, this last addition not being an exception to the rule. I guess in a way a lot of these vulnerable / insecure songs are ones that I could see Killer listening to himself rather than just matching his vibes as I was able to do a lot better within my Kidd playlist.

16- Tracks of my tears - Flying Pickets

I really like this song for Killer for his post-smile fruit state of being.

"Although I might be laughing loud and hearty Deep inside I'm blue So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place

If you look closer, it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears

I need you, need you

Outside I'm masquerading Inside my hope is fading Just a clown oh yeah Since you put me down My smile is my make up"

It is a love song technically, but you can definitely read the "I need you" as him needing his crew, their unconditional support to be able to live with himself.

I do love the idea of the smile being makeup as well, or just generally having makeup addressed feels pretty fitting for Killer.

Honorable mentions

Ain't it fun - Paramore (jealous vibes)

I need a hero - Bonnie Tyler (being a little dramatic)

Kokopelli Face Tattoo - AJJ (very out there, along the body lines)

Choke - I don't know how but they found me (more aggressive vibes)

Thank you so much for reading this awfully, awfully long post about why I chose each respective song!

I wish I could give you better explanations on a lot of these, but a lot of them are more chosen by gut feeling rather than "I actually know and understand this character and will make fitting choices".

I don't know if there IS a lot of Killer lore I just haven't seen in the anime yet or if I'm just as oblivious as the rest of you, but heyho.

This has been my attempt at a Killer playlist, I'm out!

Law gets panic attacks any time Rosinante picks up potentially dangerous objects.

🐯: "Put that down!! Let me do it for you!!"

🫀: "..."

I like the idea that these crews actually get along pretty well (with one notable exception)

I thought I'd try to use AI to unblur it and oh my god it's disgusting burn it before it lays eggs

i'd be embarassed to have my website's watermark on that, not gonna lie

It's actually a crime that they put Doflamingo out of focus here.

A CRIME.

Like, this is the best shot of Dressrosa Takeover Doffy where his cute short upward spikes are shown during the takeover on the front profile and it's a a fckn CRIME they put him out of focus. Like, they really drew Doffy this beautifully and then went "yeah we'll put him out of focus"

CRIME CRIME CRIME CRIME

I already have so little Takeover Dressrosa Doffy material as we speak, this fckn SUCKS 😭

I GET MORE MATERIAL OUT OF DRESSROSA TAKEOVER DOFFY'S REFERENCE SHEET THAN IN THE ANIME. WHAT THE HELL 😭😭😭
