Also here's something else. When Shanks was confronted in Windmill Village, Luffy got mad and Shanks was chill. When Luffy got confronted in mocktown, Luffy was calm and Nami was mad. Now fast forward to Return to Sabody, when Nami was confronted by the fake straw hats, she kept her cool and ignored them. She learned from Luffy
I also liked Blackbeard in Impel Down, where he talks about destiny. After facing Magellan he says ''you do what you have to do and you die only if it is your destiny'', that is the definition of ''fearlessness''
It's so strange how Blackbeard gives a speech on the importance of dreams, and Luffy, who champions this idea throughout the story and always smiles at this kind of talk, instead just stares right through Teach. Luffy has ignored people before, and stared at them with anger and hatred, but I can't recall another moment where he stares at someone with such emptiness in his eyes.
I remember reading an interpretation of Luffy's emptiness somewhere that I really liked: "For the first time, he met someone else that he believed could become the pirate king."
Zoro not doing anything even when Nami was yelling at him to fight back due to Luffy ordering him not to is such a amazing showcase to his loyalty to Luffy
Also if Nami was really badass she would've tried to fight Bellamy until he fought back and then they would've had to step in, cause Nami in danger now.
Blackbeard was never liked in the beginning. He is the exact opposite of Luffy in every way except his end goal and relying on faith/destiny He is a coward He is vocal about his deep desires He uses others He remains in the shadows hidden Etc
@@veloc.raptor9136 i love every little bit of him, even his recklessness and cowardice act make BLACKBEARD a really great streotypical pirate you can found in most history book related to sailors 😍
That's the moment when I knew Blackbeard wasn't just going to be a funny background character to bounce Luffy jokes off of. It's also what makes him so ambivalent to me: on one hand I detest him for what he did to Ace but on the other I cannot help but respect his freedom and way of life
It's so ironic that when we first saw blackbeard we thought blackbeard was good guy and when we saw whitebeard we thought he was a bad guy. But we were all wrong.
When he is hit by a bullet? No! When he suffers a disease? No! When he ate a soup made out of a poisonous mushroom? No! A man dies when he is forgotten!"
This may be a reach, but I love how height is used between Luffy and Blackbeard. In the bar, Blackbeard is literally looking down on Luffy whereas Luffy is looking up. But then at Blackbeards speech you can see that when he sat down their eyes meet at the same height. They both respect each other and share the same ideals. He doesn't talk down on Luffy, but rather sees him as an equal pirate. And later on , after Blackbeards actions, when they meet again in Impel Down we have that panel of Blackbeard towering over Luffy looking down on him, as he got stronger and turned into Luffys biggest enemy. So yeah, maybe a reach, but maybe not. You never know with Oda
Blackbeard actually being 3 brothers is also a perfect mirror for Luffy. Blackbeard has 2 blood brothers, whereas Luffy has 2 "adopted" brothers. Luffy and his brothers have been separated during their travels. Blackbeard and his brothers, on the other hand, have been together (literally, after he ate the devil fruit)
I love how the bounties are brought to the focus in this arc as well. Luffy lives for a bigger bounty. His infamy is arguably a sign of his progression in his goal. But not Blackbeard. He sees other people’s bounties as how they can be used for his goals, but has no bounty himself. He doesn’t even get a bounty until his goal requires him to perform infamous acts. Until he’s practically a yonkou in his own right.
Blackbeard is Luffy without Shanks, Garp, Ace, Sabo, Makino, Dadan etc. to show him what true freedom is. His role models and morals were there before he joined Whitebeard’s crew. Remember Luffy would rather die than be alone, Blackbeard was probably used to being alone.
@@briandkwik9837 Kidd over Luffy? Why? He's not much of a character. Mindless violence, "just because I'm strong" orr " becuase compared to me, the government is worse" is pretty flat and booring. The will to see an ugly world, and not conform to it , is much more interesting.
@@tevinm4292 it's because if you remember back when luffy was a child, and the thing with shanks and the mountain bandits happend. Luffy had the same mindset then as kidd does now. I watched a video over it before that went way more into it, but i can't remember too much from it, but i do remember they concluded by basically saying kidd and luffy are perfect foils for what luffy could have been without shanks
@@briandkwik9837 personally I'd say Blackbeard might be who Luffy would've been without morals. Blackbeard is truly the most free character besides Luffy in the series. While Luffy gets by with honesty and justice, he gets by with deceit and murder. Luffy as a child just reacted to the bandits how any normal guy would. Anger.
Where does all this "kidd is like luffy without.." and the "connection between BB and rocks" that you people talk about are coming from? Is that from the manga? I am sure as hell havent seen it at all cause i havent read any back story about kid even this rocks guy..
Oda is always a master at pulling loose threads. Small introduction and less profiles on his villains make it easier to shape them later on in the story.
Why I’ve instantly got to like Blackbeard is because he‘s potentially an even bigger dreamer than Luffy... He‘s considerably older and more knowledgable of the world, its history and also the timing of the new era that he‘s been ever so patiently waiting for. He‘s had a 10 times more direct path in rising to power than Luffy by confronting exponentially more powerful opponents in the same timespan Luffy has. He‘s essentially a stronger, smarter, evil Luffy... Now was there ever a more complementing antagonist to a protagonist than Blackbeard is? I guess not
I like that we're led to believe that Blackbeard didn't believe Luffy's bounty was 30 million because it was too high, when in reality he didn't believe it because it was too low. Something epic about that idk
Well he doesn't care about you whether you like it or not he will upload to get more attention to get views. You should watch mr morj's video he is just collabing with morj just bcoz he can get more popular guy stealing from another popular (mr morj) Don't you guys think mr morj should get double subscriber that him)
mrbow177 And i just saw this scene not to long ago because i actually just got done with Skypiea, so of course i saw the Blackbeard speech\introduction not to long ago, but it’s crazy he actually shows up so earlier in the series, and seems like a kind and caring guy until you see his evil side at marine ford.
Akio Otsuka is god-tier voice actor in my opinion. His voicing of Iskandar in Fate/Zero is just legendary, but he basically rocks every character he gets to voice.
To understand why Luffy didn't fight back, consider the park bench scene from Good Will Hunting: > Sean: Thought about what you said to me the other day, about my painting. Stayed up half the night thinking about it. Something occurred to me... fell into a deep peaceful sleep, and haven't thought about you since. Do you know what occurred to me? > Will: No. > Sean: You're just a kid, you don't have the faintest idea what you're talkin' about. Luffy is ready to defend himself against someone who has insulted his dreams. But then, as Luffy listens to the guy explain himself, it occurs to Luffy what kind of life this man must be living. This is a guy who genuinely believes that dreams are worthless, that putting your life at risk for your ambitions is a waste. How miserable must that be? This man will never experience the unparalleled joy of getting that one step closer to your goal, or reminisce about the crazy things you've experienced in your journey to get there. This man, who has never even experienced the kind of "dreams" he's denouncing, is trying to call them worthless. What possible satisfaction could you get from beating him up? It isn't "evil" that he doesn't believe in dreams, it's just... sad.
It's also a show of how much Luffy has learned from Shanks since he was a kid, when Higura, the bandit made fun of Shanks, Shanks didn't care, but Luffy made a big deal, here we see Luffy take Shanks' role while Zoro follows Luffy's lead and Nami takes Luffy's role
As a man, who has a dream which everyone says is, for someone like me is not achievable , and those who know what my "dream" is only knows a small fraction of it, this scene/moment in One Piece has touched me the most and still does till now. This and Hiriluck's "Men only die when they are forgotten", which is also related to the dream of mine, are the two, in all of fiction which I had read and seen, you can say, important, touching my very core, scenes.
Currently binging your stuff and as someone who needs captions to be able to make out the words in videos, big thank you for including actual written captions in your videos. They immediately make your stuff more accessible and easier to consume. The deep analysis of this part of the story is cool. We all know this moment with Blackbeard and Bellamy hits different, but not necessarily understand just *what* makes it so great. A joy to watch.
He encouraged Luffy to not give up on his dreams, right after he defeated his brother and turned him into the Marines. Only to later be one of the biggest villains in OP and Luffy going to one day have to fight him (I hope). The amount of dichotomy in that one scene is amazing.
13:35 I thought it was because Bellamy and his crew said they were pirates that Luffy and Zoro were ready to fight. But by laughing and saying dreams are over they showed themselves to be less than pirates (like the mountain bandits). Also I think Luffy and Zoro recognized that Teach was a pirate and thus had a crew. That's why they corrected Nami and said they were ready to fight "them"
I really don’t know how good this scene is, but I think the walk to Arlong park was the first time most fans knew how talented oda is.That was the first time I knew I wanted to follow this show. Please do a revisit on this Ohara!
So small thing, my boy Blackbeard defeat Ace in a fight and turn him into the World Government, but akinu is the one that killed him. Now I thoroughly believe that if Shanks stands in the way of him getting a certain big Square Rock he'd most definitely kill him to get it... Or just because
Still one of my favorite scenes in all of anime. Plus, Luffy and Zoro's comments about Blackbeard's "condition" really elevated my interest in this character
I think that fact that the BB pirates went after Luffy only to get stopped by "dreams" is poetic too. The straw hats were already on their way to skypia. I think this symbolism of dreams will be the same reason as to how BB is defeated.
The popular theory is that Blackbeard is 3 people in 1 body. I just think Luffy and Zoro were referring to BB crew. Before they encountered BB here, they've met Doc Q exploding people, seen birds get sniped off the sky and i think the hunk of a man Jesus Burgess. They simply connected the dots that those dangerous fellows must be together and connected them to Blackbeard
@@DINO-hr3wb luffy probably saw him as a very respectable person on the likes of Ace and Shanks, someone who can overcome and achieve their dreams. Little did he know Blackbeard was searching for luffy in order to kidnap him
@@pepperonicheesecake1656 idk its just the fact that zoro said 'its them" at the end is why I kind of have a theory that luffy was looking at something different
I don't know if this is just me but luffy at least from what I remember never killed one of his enimes ( I mean a main enemy like crocodile or hordy) but instead beats the dream out of them making them have no point to fight but for belemy he beat a dream into him because he felt pitty
The first bird that auger shot down when the straw hat’s were otw to log-town was insane, it shows just how far ahead he was from usopp at the time. A whole different level. The bird that just randomly died at the begging of that episode was so far away 🤯🤯🤯
Just want to say I love love love love love the freaking crap out of your content and am so glad i found your channel you are so awesome and well spoken and well thought 💭 love it man keep it up
Pretty amazing video. This is one of my favorite One Piece scenes, for sure. This, coupled with Bellamy's takedown later, is just a fantastic series of events that set up way more things than I could ever thought possible.
It was also a very bold choice on Oda's part to give such a series defining speech to one of the biggest villains. Also the part about BB not sleeping made me think about the narcolepsy that's characteristic of so many of the D clan. Another difference between him and every other D.
During Luffy’s battle with Katakuri, he had a flashback to when Rayleigh was training him and asked Luffy how does he plan on beating various haki masters in the new world to which he replied, “Depends on what kind of a person they are.” This way of thinking goes hand in hand with Luffy not giving the time of his day to Bellamy in Mocktown. Oda is goated fr!
I loved that you picked that moment in Jaya. It is on of my favorite moments in the whole series when Luffy and Zoro tell Nami "it's them". Most people tend to forget about that ending of the boardwalk scene. Which has huge implication for the entire future of OP
Such a deep and great video. You perfectly pointed everything out. Its really impressive how Goda made perfect villain that you simple cannot hate,and the weirdest thing of all is that he had such a limited time in story so far,but still is one of the greatest villains ever.
I dont normally like or comment on videos but your work, overall is great, on this topic is sheer gold. Keep it up man! Look forward to your next video.
A foil! I love that word. I think I knew it but it never clicked before now. I've always been calling villains who mirror the hero but for one major difference Negaducks.
I really like these videos, while a bunch of RUclipsrs focus on grand themes and everything. Your individual character focus on how each characters speech, like this one, or Robin's "I want to Live!" Really puts them into perspective on why this show is great.
I'm a man of dreams myself, but all of the dreams has been denied to me. Right now, I'm biding my time and I've set some more realistic goals in life for now, while I support others in their dreams! Wonderful video as always Ohara! or tho, you might've had a tad fun making it xD Let me know if you (the reader) want to talk deeper with me down below.
This part and the whole jaya arc was brilliant, might be one of my favourite arcs. Glad that this was covered too. So much stuff happened in that one scene alone. I really want to read it again.
This is the most importers scene in OP for me, OP is about dreams. And here we see the 2 most imported people in the story talking about it. This scene made BB great and showed how dreams are impotent! ZEHAHAHAH
Will this series only include moments that've been animated already? Cuz I feel like something that could make an amazing vid would be the "Born to Boil" Scene. It also feels like it doesn't get talked about much anymore. Love the vids btw!
Bruh, I just have to say.... your analysis videos are💯💯💯 Never stop making them, the purity that you break down in Oda's genius and somewhat complexly deep writing is phenomenal and will forever have me a fan of your channel..... I think most of your corny joke sare hilarious too, keep it up!!😂👌🏾

You can still like a villain.

Are you guys new to One Piece? This theory is at least 15 years old...
I hear zoro is a D. He wants to be the world's best swordsman 😬
The biggest mystery in this scene is what luffy and zoro said, "it is not 'he', it is probably 'they'."
I'm sure "they" meant Bellamy and his crew
The popular theory is that Blackbeard is 3 people in 1 body.

Before they encountered BB here, they've met Doc Q exploding people, seen birds get sniped off the sky and i think the hunk of a man Jesus Burgess. They simply connected the dots that those dangerous fellows must be together and connected them to Blackbeard
also what the hell is luffy looking at. I feel like oda mad him stare down blackbeard because luffy is seeing something we can't see yet
@@DINO-hr3wb luffy probably saw him as a very respectable person on the likes of Ace and Shanks, someone who can overcome and achieve their dreams. Little did he know Blackbeard was searching for luffy in order to kidnap him
@@pepperonicheesecake1656 idk its just the fact that zoro said 'its them" at the end is why I kind of have a theory that luffy was looking at something different
Blackbeards speech might beiconic, but the one hit KO on Bellamy is one of the most satisfying scenes in all of One Piece
I don't know if this is just me but luffy at least from what I remember never killed one of his enimes ( I mean a main enemy like crocodile or hordy) but instead beats the dream out of them making them have no point to fight but for belemy he beat a dream into him because he felt pitty
Bellamy : "Pirates dreams are over!!!
*Doffy has entered the chat*
BB doesnt sleep, so he doesnt even have dreams. thats very deep. BB dream is to have a dream
The first bird that auger shot down when the straw hat’s were otw to log-town was insane, it shows just how far ahead he was from usopp at the time. A whole different level. The bird that just randomly died at the begging of that episode was so far away 🤯🤯🤯
new chapter,, it could be the effect of Auger devil fruit power,, the warp warp fruit
Actually Black Beard talking about dreams never dying is my favorite scene of ALL time
Just want to say I love love love love love the freaking crap out of your content and am so glad i found your channel you are so awesome and well spoken and well thought 💭 love it man keep it up
Holy shit! Thanks man, really happy to hear you enjoy it!
The best voice I have ever heard... You're Morgan freeman of RUclips...
14:01 this keeps reminding me that they are all very tall (even doc Q without his horse) compaird to the shockd pirate infront of auger
Amazing work of analysis here!
No wonder why this scene is iconic for me, and many other!
I think when bellamy pirates mock his dream, he isnt see them as equal(pirates) anymore. He see them just a townspeople mocking his dream.
14:40-14:45
Do my eyes deceive me or do I think I know what Doffy's eyes look like under those shades?
Yea red neon eyes
I love these scene breakdowns. Great Video
Pretty amazing video. This is one of my favorite One Piece scenes, for sure. This, coupled with Bellamy's takedown later, is just a fantastic series of events that set up way more things than I could ever thought possible.
It’s crazy how underrated creativity is these days but great video my g.
This is so relatable for me especially in the times we are in right now.
*This is my era!*
omg, you know how to create expectation and cause chills, man, great vid
This is a fantastic series Ohara! You made me appreciate these scenes so much more, looking forward to your other videos.
Ohara is making some of the best One Piece content OUT HERE
Thank you for putting into words what I felt about my favorite scene in One Piece. Amazing work.
It was also a very bold choice on Oda's part to give such a series defining speech to one of the biggest villains.
Also the part about BB not sleeping made me think about the narcolepsy that's characteristic of so many of the D clan. Another difference between him and every other D.
Where luffy, ace and garp falls a sleep when eating or fighting. Teach never sleep.
During Luffy’s battle with Katakuri, he had a flashback to when Rayleigh was training him and asked Luffy how does he plan on beating various haki masters in the new world to which he replied, “Depends on what kind of a person they are.” This way of thinking goes hand in hand with Luffy not giving the time of his day to Bellamy in Mocktown. Oda is goated fr!
I loved that you picked that moment in Jaya. It is on of my favorite moments in the whole series when Luffy and Zoro tell Nami "it's them". Most people tend to forget about that ending of the boardwalk scene. Which has huge implication for the entire future of OP
I hope one of these days you can revise Dr. Hiriluk last words. " I man dies when he is forgotten"
I'm so glad you covered this scene. when I think of great One Piece moments, this is one of the first to come to my head.
Such a deep and great video. You perfectly pointed everything out. Its really impressive how Goda made perfect villain that you simple cannot hate,and the weirdest thing of all is that he had such a limited time in story so far,but still is one of the greatest villains ever.
I dont normally like or comment on videos but your work, overall is great, on this topic is sheer gold. Keep it up man! Look forward to your next video.
Thank you very much!
Brilliant series for a brilliant show, this is probably my most re-visited One Piece moment of all time.
deine videos sind echt der hammer. kann sie mir immer und immer weider angucken und hab dabei kein gefühl zeit zu verschwenden. :)
I was already a big fan of your videos but damn do i love these scene analysis videos!
HUGE thanks for making them man can't to see the next one!
A foil! I love that word. I think I knew it but it never clicked before now. I've always been calling villains who mirror the hero but for one major difference Negaducks.
What about his laughter which is the best thing about his character "zehahahahahahahaha"
Upvote for providing the specific chapters and episodes, great video!
amazing analysis as always
Seu canal é incrivel! Sou um grande fã de One Piece e seu conteúdo é sensacional!
O'Hara has always been an underrated channel. I really hope this series catapults him into where he should be.
Beautiful. This is awesome. Great outlook.
Just found your channel and I already deeply love this series TM
I really like these videos, while a bunch of RUclipsrs focus on grand themes and everything. Your individual character focus on how each characters speech, like this one, or Robin's "I want to Live!" Really puts them into perspective on why this show is great.
End of the video: Thank guys, peace!
Me: One Piece
Another fantastic video Ahara keep up the good content cant wait for the next one
Your start and humor is amazing man!!!!
I'm a man of dreams myself, but all of the dreams has been denied to me.
Right now, I'm biding my time and I've set some more realistic goals in life for now, while I support others in their dreams!
Wonderful video as always Ohara! or tho, you might've had a tad fun making it xD
Let me know if you (the reader) want to talk deeper with me down below.
What a power move to have Blackbeard and Luffy's first fight be over some fucking food.
This part and the whole jaya arc was brilliant, might be one of my favourite arcs. Glad that this was covered too. So much stuff happened in that one scene alone. I really want to read it again.
The begining of the video was just what I needed 👍 Thank you @Ohara
Lmao 😂
This is the most importers scene in OP for me, OP is about dreams. And here we see the 2 most imported people in the story talking about it. This scene made BB great and showed how dreams are impotent! ZEHAHAHAH
Why do I feel like Blackbeard will have a heartbreaking backstory?
No
heartbreaking story of being in a ship without the sort of dream he likes
solid video dude!
Im loving this series, cant wait to see more
Will this series only include moments that've been animated already? Cuz I feel like something that could make an amazing vid would be the "Born to Boil" Scene. It also feels like it doesn't get talked about much anymore. Love the vids btw!
it's great moment too but imagine how it gonna be in the anime
the mainstream one piece tubers aren't going to talk about that because god forbid you spoil the anime only army with the titles and thumbnails
The "trademarc" at 2:43 😂😂
Love these videos don't stop
🐐 as always
Every time he says dream i want to tag Dream in it...
Omg Luffy looks exactly like Gol D Roger at 15:24‼️
Great video. Editing is on point even more so than most of your videos.
Bruh, I just have to say.... your analysis videos are💯💯💯 Never stop making them, the purity that you break down in Oda's genius and somewhat complexly deep writing is phenomenal and will forever have me a fan of your channel..... I think most of your corny joke sare hilarious too, keep it up!!😂👌🏾
