One Piece 858 - The Meeting REVIEW

One Piece 858 - Meeting

So we're getting a Norse-themed Elbaf. Cool. Which means in the future, perhaps, the King of Elbaf will be called "Odin"...or "Laufey", since Loki is a Jotunn. Depends on which route Oda chooses to take. Makes sense, it's not an uncommon thing for fantasy Giants to be based on them. I just hope Oda doesn't make them too silly looking, or silly. But all the Giants so far in the story have been pretty bad-ass so I'm not too worried.

With Elbaf being based on Norse Mythology (possibly), does that mean we're going to get another Ragnarok prophecy story-trope? It's common in fantasy, but in One Piece, I trust Oda could put an original spin on it. It kind of...ties in with the story as a whole. Because Oda has been eluding to a new "Dawn" of the OP world and Ragnarok is pretty much a great war that will take place between the Gods and their enemies. Something to consider here.

Also, Loki, who is commonly known throughout Norse mythology to be the God of Mischief, just happened to be the one mentioned when wanting to marry Lola? There's something more to this.

Anyway, the other things in the chapter worth mentioning:

• - Nami-swaaan looks hot in mafia style clothing

• - With Zoro heading towards Wano, Nami is currently the next highest ranking member of the Straw-Hats. Although most fans don't really see it this way, I'm glad Oda decided to put her at Luffy's right. According to business etiquette in Asian cultures, where people sit in meetings have tremendous weight. Although I don't really count Chopper, and I assume he's only directly to Luffy's left because he's prone to getting hurt and should be protected at all times being the ship's primary doctor. So directly after him, it is Sanji, so the hierarchy is complete. Perhaps this doesn't mean a lot to most fans but it's still really cool to see.

• - Advisor Jinbei at it again.

• - Straw-Hats looking good. Too bad it's not quite the same as Strong World level attire. Nami-swaaaan

• - It looks like Caesar Clown is actually a third quantity of his own in this alliance and not under Bege completely, with the way the chapter presented the relationships. So it's possible we'll be getting a betrayal of Bege by Caesar if any opportunity arises.

• - Since when drinking a bottle of milk gets your tooth back ? Heh il try to do the same but im glad he got the tooth back. Look, I don't mind Luffy getting scar, but no need for a missing tooth. We need Luffy's full smile when he becomes Pirate King. Wouldn't be right otherwise. Roger had a full set of teeth and I can't imagine how many mountain crushing punches to the face Garp has given him. There's no excuse! Lol.

• - Viewing chopper without his hat its kinda SCARY... or eh in my opinion

• - Capone's Bege sworn brother GANGSTER GASTINO . didn't see that coming but i think Caesar Clown looks way more cooler than this. And now he is a dog for Bege because of bege having his heart

• - Luffy is luffy... the scene where he try to punch Bege is very cool not only that luffy dosen't give a crap about Bege but he is more concern about Pekoms who got shot by him

What are your toughts about this "Perfect" plan bege is talking about? I must say it has to be kinda perfect if they want to defeat a Yonko.
