  • Realistically, One Piece should be wrapping up sometime in the next decade, hopefully in the next five years. By the time Wit catches up to the first big arc Alabasta, it’s likely that the actual anime will be wrapping up.

    One Piece also recently switched to seasonal instead of releasing episodes weekly. I’m not sure how much Toei and Wit are working together on this, but it wouldn’t surprise me if Wit’s releases will be coming when One Piece would otherwise be off-air.

    Also, Oda is kinda a hack writer. He loves the JJ Abrams style of mystery boxes with no plan for how to pay them off. Going back through and adding setup for some of the later story beats that weren’t foreshadowed properly is something that the live-action show has been doing, and it wouldn’t surprise me if this remake is going to take some of those notes.




  • honestly, it’s even dumber than that.

    Lots of clothing that we would now consider “for women” was either initially for men or initially gender neutral. It was “The Great Male Renunciation” when a bunch of stuffy Victorians who couldn’t handle gay thoughts decided men couldn’t wear skirts or corsets anymore.

    Imagine thinking you’re an alpha when you’re just a sheep following rules written by cowards centuries ago. Real alphas wear dresses and think for themselves.

    I would make the argument that our species resorting to violent conflict over shareable resources is a pretty damning indictment of human nature.

    Tribalism exists, it’s a scientific fact. You can overcome the biases it imposes through cognitive effort, but at a baseline we are predisposed to hate anyone who we believe “doesn’t belong.” That’s not inherently evil, but it is asshole behavior.

    Well no, what’s happening to you is also because of the general culture of overmedication. If there were less false positives, people wouldn’t distrust your diagnosis. If anything, I’d argue the current culture hurts the people who have serious issues more than the people who have been given a shoddy diagnosis in order to peddle drugs, but both sides are pretty rough.
