She is definitely Garp's Nami. "Hey Tsuru...I have an idea to beat these pirates." "No, Garp, we can't just punch them harder." "Come on, you can't just ruin the surprise like that..."
@@aleccampbell7707 The idea that Bogard is a deep plant from Tsuru to MITIGATE damage as well as be his second in command is now my headcanon for life.
I feel legit super happy that he made the video i know he confirmed that he would make a tsuru video it just feels good knowing Tekking listened to the idea i had and wanted a video for so long Thank you Tekking you really are a legend The Marine Trio Are finally complete
To give you context for how much Tsuru towers over normal people, Jotaro Kujo, who is memed for being huge, is 195 cm. And Tsuru is 204 cm, 9 cm taller than him. And she's old, meaning her top height could have been around 218 cm - 226 cm.
6'5 is a shortass height for one piece. Shanks, who is kinda themed as a prettyboy type of built guy, is 6'6.5! and he's short. Guys in one piece range from like 9ft to over 20ft.
Huh, just realized her power is based on two uses of "wash", wash as in "washing laundry" which is obvious but also "wash" as in the religious usage of "washing away one's sins" which is why she can make people less evil
I think basically the way you are explaining it she's an executive officer, what you call an XO in the Army. An XO in theory is second in command to a CO (Commanding officer) for a unit but in practice they are kinda outside the chain of command and handle mostly planning and administration, only ever actually stepping in to lead if the CO is unavailable either permanently or temporarily.
For some reason I knew Tsuru was very tall, like the majority of Admirals/Vice admirals. Like she's often seen standing shoulder to shoulder with Garp and Sengoku
@@isabelpage5950 One Piece heights go crazy, apparently Oden is taller than Groudon from Pokemon. Reminds me of how Peppa Pig is taller than Charizard lmao
Garp going to Tsuru with the opposite of the my dad can beat up your dad!,,, “My grandkid can beat up your grandkid!” “mine’s a yonko yours isn’t even a vice admiral!”😤😤 😂😂
I've always wanted a conversation between Luffy and Tsuru at some point. I don't know what purpose it would really serve, but I feel like she'd have a lot of funny/embarrassing stories to tell about Garp.
I really feel like her fruit power is setting up for one of our good pirates (Strawhats, Heart Pirates etc) to be wrung out but their hearts don't change
I just hope that when we get the God Valley flashback, we also get a lot of fights even with smaller characters. Seeing all these old heads fight and showing off their abilities would be so cool.
yeah for real. when one piece ends, I wonder if we will like a story starting from the void century and ends with Roger's execution OR a story about the kids of the next generation facing a massive threat.
But Garp did succeed in a way, cuz we learnt that Dragon was a marine (presumably a high ranking one due to his knowledge of military tactics and Akainu's particular aversion to him) but he just left after seeing the corruption
Now I just have this image of Garp going to Tsuru saying shit like “Luffy said he wants to be a pirate, Tsuru you need to come clean my damn grandson right away!” Lol
Tsuru’s and Doflamingo’s ”rivalry” is hinted at from when they’re first introduced in the manga during the warlord meeting. Doffy is playing around making two marines fight each other and Tsuru tells him to cut it out. In the anime they changed it and gave her line to Sengoku.
Being as advance as the ancient kingdom was, and knowing more about DF origins. It’s now not seemin so wild that someone 800 years ago knew what a wash machine is
Mama is gonna LOVE the next arc I can't wait to see her reaction to the finale of Dressrosa, as usual props to her near prophetic levels of analysis, very entertaining and every video I've watched has given me a new way to view the series and appreciate the characters or appreciate subtle inferences about the world building I hadn't noticed myself
I think Tsuru wasn't promoted to an admiral, because she had her fruit to begin with, and the ability she had isn't terrifying or powerful enough for an admiral position. You can even imagine a possible alternate reality where Tsuru didn't have her fruit and was given one of the first 3 admirals logia fruits upon her promotion, for example Tsuru with the ice fruit.
Not a direct point to this video, but there are 2 things I wanna see: First, and most unsurprising, a few chapters of the past of that golden trio of the Marines. Second, a Battle where the 3 Monkey D.s fight side by side together and work as a perfect union on the battlefield.
Here is an idea that I thought of while watching the Lili video the other day. What if the reason she never returned to Alabasta, is because she stayed with Pluton in Wano, and that is why the Poneglyph in Alabasta mentions the location of it. This works with the fact that the Poneglyph in Alabasta is hidden away, where only the royal family can find it, and that the secret of it has been passed down. There might be a few more details that supports this idea, but until I finish rereading the manga again, this is all I have to go on. Keep up the great work, and can't wait for the next video.
I imagine her role is also to make sure other officers are properly equipped to attack pirates and defend bases. She probably also trains other officers.
Hey Tekking, given that Zoan's can influence personalities, and a God would have a stronger presence than an animal AND how young Luffy was when he ate it - how much of Luffy is actually 'Luffy'?
Finally! A Tsuru video😀 She is one of my favorite tertiary characters. Just starting off on the video, so have no idea if this will be mentioned, but I have always wondered why people sleep on Tsuru. I don't think it has ever been mentioned that she is NOT on par with Garp or Sengoku.
Coming from the U.S. Navy, there are two different kinds of officers: staff and line officers. Line officers perform duties that are more combat oriented while staff officers are support officers in charge of departments like supply, administration, legal, and medical departments.
Ok, crazy head canon tangent. The height of different characters got me autistic, so i have a theory of how this is possible. The square-cube law is the biggest limiter in real life to people being capable of being giant size. After thinking through the idea that maybe the one piece world was smaller, not ruling it out but it cant be enough to make a big difference. The next thought was that the people of one piece have to be made of tougher stuff, something incredible strong but light enough to be able to overcome the weight issue. Asking a few simple questions after that. What is the strongest material? Sea stone. Is that capable of being incorporated into a body? Not in its raw form, making a nail seems difficult enough, but it has been shown that sea prism stone can be chemically bonded to water, as shown in skypiea with the pyrobloin clouds. I propose that sea stone is present in all seawater and in some small amount in the people and environment of the one piece world. If devil Fruits use the pyrobloin naturally in the body as a catalyst to change the lineage factor of the host, then a side effect of having a devil fruit would naturally be a disruption of ability when in contact with the substance or immersed in a solution of it. If sea stone is what allows the powers to manifest by altering it's hosts lineage factor, then it holds that over exposure of it would cause a disfunction in that process. There are more avenues to explore on this but I think you get my point. Pyrobloin is in everything and its the source of many fantastical aspects of the series, except miss goldenweeks abilities cause those dont make much sense.
Like smoothie tsuru is very underused by oda. I head canon her crew is made up of former female pirates at least a few of them and many Marines that face her get cleaned off of evil and join the Marines as good marines
Tekking this is what i love about one piece. In a real military right every commanding office rhas their second in command that works as an advisor. From the platoon level being the platoon sergeant being an advisor to the platoon lader (Lt) all the way to a battalion level being the sergeant major and the battalion commander (LtCol). Oda knows how to write a military correctly and i live it
My favorite instance of two characters in the same work having the same name is Tony Soprano and Tony Blundetto in The Sopranos. They even lampshade it.
Building upon Tsuru's family, what if Hibari is also a member of her family as well? What if Hibari's mother is actually Kujaku? They both have the same hair and eye color, and when Hibari was frozen in Chapter 1081, the only other member of Sword whose reaction got focused on (besides Garp and Koby), is Kujaku's, who had the strongest reaction next to Koby's. Of all the other Sword members, why was her reaction the one that we got to see alongside Koby and Garp's, unless Hibari is somene important to Kujaku? Also, when she called out Hibari's name she didn't use any honorifics like Koby did (he called her Hibari-san), hinting at a sense of familiarity between the two, which you usually only see between family members or close friends. At the very least this could hint at a familial connection between them, on top of Kujaku being one that was caring for Hibari while she thawed out. Bonus, Hibari's name also follows the pattern of female marines being named after birds, Hibari being named after a skylark. Assuming the theory of Hibari being Akainu's daughter is true, I guess this would mean Kujaku is Akainu's wife? It would explain why Akainu is seemingly okay with his daughter going off on these dangerous missions. Because mom is there with her. Only issue is the potential age difference. Akainu is in his 50's, while Kujaku is likely in her 30's. Maybe rather than being his wife, Kujaku is Akainu's daughter instead, making Hibari is his grandaughter, in which case Hotogisu might be Akainu's wife. As for why his granddaughter Hibari talks like him but his daughter Kujaku doesn't, maybe Kujaku was rebellious and didn't want to be like her father, taking more after her mother, while her daughter went in the opposite direction and took more after her grandfather. Kind of like how Luffy shares more in common with his grandfather than he does with his father.
Tsuru has always been a really fascinating character to me, for all she’s on the sidelines- she’s Doflamingo’s Smoker, and her powers are really fascinating. I do theorize that her and Sengoku are on the way to Hachinosu- and my theory is that Sengoku isn’t going to survive the encounter. I think he’s going to sacrifice himself to save Garp and take out the island entirely. It would be fitting for the man who was the face of the Marines for so long to go out destroying the island that’s become symbolic of pirates.
I like to think of Tsuru being to Sengoku what Tashigi is to Smoker. She was introduced as Master Chief Petty Officer, she makes it to Ensign (2 ranks above MCPO) after Alabasta, and now she is a Captain (5 ranks above Ensign). Sure, in G-5 there are NOT Commodores or Rear Admirals, because G-5 is a mess, but I'm sure there were some Ensigns and Lieutenants (Fullbody was a Lt at the beginning of the story, to give an example) in Loguetown, and she had authority over them despite being of a lesser rank, because she was Smoker's second-in-command. Basically, Tashigi has whatever authority that comes with Smoker's rank, as she speaks for him, even when speaking her own mind. In fact, take the incident at Hachinosu as an example. When Garp was not around, Captain Tashigi was the one calling the shots, despite Rear Admiral Kujaku, who outranks her twice, being present. Sure, pre-TS Tsuru didn't have the rank to order any of the Admirals around, but if any of them tried to pull rank on her, she just needed to pick up a Snail and have Sengoku repeat what she had just said. Their authority doesn't come from their rank, but from the role they occupy. An order from Tsuru equated an order from Sengoku, in the same way an order from Tashigi equates an order from Smoker. And on a side note, if an Admiral tried to pull rank on Garp the result would be the same, but not because Garp would be backed up by Sengoku. In fact, if Sengoku got involved, he'd most likely tell Garp to fuck off and do what he was told. But he'd just not do it because he wouldn't want to, and the only alternative would be to physically force him to obey, which might not be a good choice for the Admiral in question. Garp also command authority higher to an Admiral but in a different way. And of course, I'm sure both Tsuru and Garp also commanded authority out of respect due to their so many accomplishments and accolades. I don't even see Sakazuki trying to boss around Tsuru just because. In fact, even as Fleet Admiral, I see him asking her for help instead of ordering her into action.
Imagine Garp with his Great-Grandson, Garp: "You're going to be a Marine!" Ends up as a Bounty Hunter Garp: "Dammit I thought we ran out of non-marine occupations....."
It’s really sweet that Tsuru seems to be a good mom and nurturing if her descendants are all still working with her and she’s not written as strident or dismissive
On the contrary, Queen's Hair in the manga is colored black and officially he has blond hair. Tsuru's hair is not black but dark blue. Oda's not only inconsistent with height but with hair color too. See, for example, Law's hair in earlier artworks show him with blue hair and/or dark blue and sometimes it's drawn completely black (vol. 69 for example). Furthermore, Tsuru's husband could have blond hair!
Speaking of Tsuru's relatives I think Tsuru is Sanji's maternal grandmother as I believe Sora had a Romeo and Juilet style romance with Judge. Also Sora is a type of bird found in the marshlands of the states and given Tsuru's rank she managed to pressure Morgans to change the superhero comic.
The fact that Tsuru is tall as heck and didn't shrink down makes me believe that she's in her good timeline. In bad timeline she would be more like Mrs. Bakkin (or whatever is her name)
Tekking if you see this i think a cool video would be Most Iconic OP panels of the whole manga. I was watching dressrosa and for some reason the panel where Luffy and Doffy clash CoC with their feet.. that's always been a cool one that sticks out to me. Kinda compares Luffy to yonko clash panels for the first time
About one piece heights, does the clone clone fruit copy them? We know it affects muscle mass, Mr 2 had to swap back to himself to kick better. Can you touch big mom or kaido and become as strong as their base forms with the clone clone fruit?
26:37 to be fair...the job of a tactician is to be prepared for the expected and as much as you can be for the unexpected. But like Luffy and others they just go with the flow and the strawhats just back them up. Lol
I think Great Staff Officer holds similar authority as an admiral. The same with Director of the Marine Bureau of Investigation Tensei / Kurouma. Its just another career path.
She is definitely Garp's Nami. "Hey Tsuru...I have an idea to beat these pirates." "No, Garp, we can't just punch them harder." "Come on, you can't just ruin the surprise like that..."
Yeah definitely
Sengoku as the mediator be like "We are gonna make a plan and punch them harder!!!"
(Spelling)

And yet Tsuru's height isn't straight up supernatural. 204 cm tall people actually exist.

Congrats on becoming a One Piece mother and not instantly dying.
An anime based on Sengoku would be called "Chillin in my 70s After Retiring from Being Fleet Admiral"
Ngl having slice of life of Marines from POV of Sengoku would be quite curious
Isn't Sengoku pushing 80 at this point?
Tsuru being the height of an NBA player kind of makes sense with her power literally putting people in a wash/spin cycle 😂
I like the theory that she was Akainu's master, we see him in her squad in chapter 0, Aokiji with Garp and Kizaru with Sengoku.
I'm surprised that there are still characters left that Tekking hasn't covered yet, given all the obscure things in One Piece he's covered.
You know, I wouldn’t be shocked if one of the reasons why Doflamingo chosed to become a warlord was to make sure Tsuru wouldn’t be able to stop him
That segment between garp and tsuru with their kids/grandkids had me dying
Huh, just realized her power is based on two uses of "wash", wash as in "washing laundry" which is obvious but also "wash" as in the religious usage of "washing away one's sins" which is why she can make people less evil

Tsuru has always been a really fascinating character to me, for all she’s on the sidelines- she’s Doflamingo’s Smoker, and her powers are really fascinating. I do theorize that her and Sengoku are on the way to Hachinosu- and my theory is that Sengoku isn’t going to survive the encounter. I think he’s going to sacrifice himself to save Garp and take out the island entirely. It would be fitting for the man who was the face of the Marines for so long to go out destroying the island that’s become symbolic of pirates.
Timestamp 16:45..Exactly....people forget that one of Usopp's followers in Syrup Village name is Carrot...so yes it happens in One Piece on occasion
I like to think of Tsuru being to Sengoku what Tashigi is to Smoker. She was introduced as Master Chief Petty Officer, she makes it to Ensign (2 ranks above MCPO) after Alabasta, and now she is a Captain (5 ranks above Ensign). Sure, in G-5 there are NOT Commodores or Rear Admirals, because G-5 is a mess, but I'm sure there were some Ensigns and Lieutenants (Fullbody was a Lt at the beginning of the story, to give an example) in Loguetown, and she had authority over them despite being of a lesser rank, because she was Smoker's second-in-command. Basically, Tashigi has whatever authority that comes with Smoker's rank, as she speaks for him, even when speaking her own mind.
In fact, take the incident at Hachinosu as an example. When Garp was not around, Captain Tashigi was the one calling the shots, despite Rear Admiral Kujaku, who outranks her twice, being present. Sure, pre-TS Tsuru didn't have the rank to order any of the Admirals around, but if any of them tried to pull rank on her, she just needed to pick up a Snail and have Sengoku repeat what she had just said. Their authority doesn't come from their rank, but from the role they occupy. An order from Tsuru equated an order from Sengoku, in the same way an order from Tashigi equates an order from Smoker.
And on a side note, if an Admiral tried to pull rank on Garp the result would be the same, but not because Garp would be backed up by Sengoku. In fact, if Sengoku got involved, he'd most likely tell Garp to fuck off and do what he was told. But he'd just not do it because he wouldn't want to, and the only alternative would be to physically force him to obey, which might not be a good choice for the Admiral in question. Garp also command authority higher to an Admiral but in a different way.
And of course, I'm sure both Tsuru and Garp also commanded authority out of respect due to their so many accomplishments and accolades. I don't even see Sakazuki trying to boss around Tsuru just because. In fact, even as Fleet Admiral, I see him asking her for help instead of ordering her into action.
I would love to see her reaction to Garp coming back from rocky port
Guess you can say Vega punk is spilling all the navy beans
Now my job will be to ask for a Momousagi video every day until Tekking makes it happen
Imagine Garp with his Great-Grandson,
Garp: "You're going to be a Marine!"
Ends up as a Bounty Hunter
Garp: "Dammit I thought we ran out of non-marine occupations....."
Not even one of those old Bounty Hunters, he's a Marine Bounty Hunter xd
It’s really sweet that Tsuru seems to be a good mom and nurturing if her descendants are all still working with her and she’s not written as strident or dismissive
On the contrary, Queen's Hair in the manga is colored black and officially he has blond hair. Tsuru's hair is not black but dark blue. Oda's not only inconsistent with height but with hair color too. See, for example, Law's hair in earlier artworks show him with blue hair and/or dark blue and sometimes it's drawn completely black (vol. 69 for example).
Furthermore, Tsuru's husband could have blond hair!
Why does Tekkings mic. keep cutting out?
0:42 6’8? She out here guarding the peace, need to be guarding these 3s
0:47 Damn
Speaking of Tsuru's relatives I think Tsuru is Sanji's maternal grandmother as I believe Sora had a Romeo and Juilet style romance with Judge. Also Sora is a type of bird found in the marshlands of the states and given Tsuru's rank she managed to pressure Morgans to change the superhero comic.
17:30 is that a Buffy musical episode reference??
Doffy creates too many strings for Tsuru to wash match made in heaven.
The fact that Tsuru is tall as heck and didn't shrink down makes me believe that she's in her good timeline. In bad timeline she would be more like Mrs. Bakkin (or whatever is her name)
Well Suru might also he an interesting lineage
Tsuru is literally as tall as me... That fucks me up, man.
Tekking if you see this i think a cool video would be Most Iconic OP panels of the whole manga.
I was watching dressrosa and for some reason the panel where Luffy and Doffy clash CoC with their feet.. that's always been a cool one that sticks out to me. Kinda compares Luffy to yonko clash panels for the first time
20:00 Oh Garp 🤣
"Watch out for my grandson he's gonna be a real great marine-
"DAMMIT" (smashes desk)
About one piece heights, does the clone clone fruit copy them? We know it affects muscle mass, Mr 2 had to swap back to himself to kick better. Can you touch big mom or kaido and become as strong as their base forms with the clone clone fruit?
26:37 to be fair...the job of a tactician is to be prepared for the expected and as much as you can be for the unexpected. But like Luffy and others they just go with the flow and the strawhats just back them up. Lol
Tsuru being taller thank Shanks is insane
She was the vice president
The parallel to Garp makes me want Luffy and Tsurus granddaughter to meet even if briefly
I think Great Staff Officer holds similar authority as an admiral. The same with Director of the Marine Bureau of Investigation Tensei / Kurouma. Its just another career path.
I'm definitely with you on Tsuru's height breaking brains, like, wtf! I think Oda is fucking with us now.
