This week, Jon Negroni (me) and Travis Hymas discuss the latest chapter of the One Piece manga, titled “Hard Aspects.” And don't worry, not an aspect of this conversation is hard to understand. One Piece 1112 is currently available to read for free on Viz.

We want your feedback! If you have any questions, corrections, or your own theories and speculation, please email us (rookipirateradio@gmail.com) or join our Discord! 

Discussion Points for One Piece 1112 (Spoilers!):
We speculate about the potential reveal of Vegapunk's brain and its role in the broadcast.
The Straw Hats' survival and escape are now a real question mark with the Gorosei closing in on them.
Franky is just so great?! Here's why Franky is just so great. Quick bounty talk about Franky, too.
Bonnie joining the crew just becomes more and more feasible thanks to this chapter! No, seriously!
OK but what is Vegapunk's message really going to be? We have some theories.
The Gorosei's powers may be based on mythical beings rather than Devil Fruit abilities...
Did Vegapunk clone himself while Travis wasn't watching?
The satellites might die when Vegapunk finally "dies." Right?
Bonnie could control S-Bear and the husk of Kuma. Right?
We have some fun speculating Yamato's new "scabbards" possibly including the Tobi Roppo.
Some theories on Edison's plan to save the Sunny.

One Piece 1112 – 'Hard Aspects'

This week on Rookie Pirate Radio, Jon Negroni and Travis Hymas discuss the latest chapter of the One Piece manga, titled “The Wings of Icarus.” One Piece 1114 is currently available to read for free on Viz.

We want your feedback! You can email us (rookipirateradio@gmail.com) or join our Discord to share your own theories, speculation, and suggestions.

Discussion Points for One Piece 1114 (Spoilers!):
Vegapunk's message about the world sinking is apparently reaching the ENTIRE world!
The Mother Flame has some metaphorical connections to nuclear power and the history of Japan...
There's still some mystery behind how Vegapunk "discovered" the Mother Flame, what it's true nature is, and why the Gorsosei didn't suspect him deciphering the Poneglyphs sooner.
The Iron Giant is apparently super resistant to fire and explosions.
JoyBoy being the first pirate is a longtime theory that has always made a ton of sense, and we definitely expect him to be the "special character" Oda has been teasing to have an eyepatch.
The mystery of Logia fruits and their elemental nature, as well as the hints behind flames powered by "passion."
Impel Down could be a seriously pivotal location moving forward, especially if Doflamingo escapes and joins either the Cross Guild or even the Revolutionary Army.
Akainu is going to continue to be evil, sorry not sorry.
The broadcast snail being hidden inside the Iron Giant makes a ton of sense!
Elbaf isn't going to just be another standalone island adventure arc, it's gotta tie into a bigger war arc somehow.

Delicious in Dungeon – Anime Roundtable

This week, Jon Negroni and Travis Hymas discuss the latest chapter of the One Piece manga, titled “Stalemate.” Though based on that stellar color spread, maybe it should be called Checkmate...One Piece 1113 is currently available to read for free on Viz.

Discussion Points for One Piece 1113 (Spoilers!):
We were right about Vegapunk's brain! Good job, us.
Vegapunk is a centrist fence-sitter and that's that.
Saturn and Robin and tension.
One Piece is an adaptation of Titanic?!
The prophecy of Luffy destroying Fishman Island continues to look bright.
A worldwide flood, ancient weapons, and artificial clouds...
Fishman Island's exclusion from the broadcast might be intentional.
The world will probably assume Luffy killed Vegapunk which would be major.
Luffy's dream of becoming the Pirate King could represent his desire to be the last pirate and create a world that doesn't need pirates anymore.
Luffy's ideology as a pirate is unique and deeply ingrained in his character. Each member of the Straw Hat Pirates has a unique dream that contributes to his dream.
We need to know how injured Robin really is.
Understanding different perspectives can help avoid misunderstandings and conflicts with Sanji's behavior toward women evolving over the course of the story.
The theory of the ancient kingdom being Impel Down is interesting.
Climate change and increasing marine presence can be forms of enforcement The concept of a floating island or a kingdom of pirates that can move around is fascinating and adds depth to the One Piece world.
Everyone's theories about the world of One Piece are about to be put to the test.
Moving islands? Floating islands?
The ancient kingdom and the Void Century are of course connected to the mystery behind the Poneglyphs, but also the weird navigation an other climate events that might be key to finding Laugh Tale.
Momo may already have a general idea of the world sinking and that is why he wanted to wait to open the borders of Wano.
The theory of a big party where all the islands are connected is...nice.
The rising ocean tides could have led to the creation of islands and underwater places. And the sky islands and the ancient kingdom could have been methods of escaping the growing ocean waters.
The weapons, such as Pluton and Uranus, may have had the power to drain the world or separate the islands.
The possibility of Kuzan joining Blackbeard's crew as a mole is discussed
We question the logic behind Kuzan leaving the Marines if he is a valuable asset
