Oh poo poo, that could totally be it. I'm sure G5 filed an after-action report that included Sanji's amazing revitalizing soup, so the Marines should be aware of his abilities.

After re-reading Fishman Island recently, my wacky theory is Sanji and Big Mam/Big Mam's crew clashed while the Thousand Sunny traveled to Zou and that Big Mam's influence is why Sanji's bounty is Alive Only. Since Big Mam is all about sweets, Sanji could have gained the crew's safety with his cooking and now Big Mam wants him as one of her chefs, or something like that. I don't think current happenings in Zou are related to that though.

We've seen Sanji on Zou though, so that would be kinda weird. Letting him go only to kidnap him again later on Zou?
I do feel like Big Mam is involved in this somehow.

Well, if the Straw Hats encountered her crew rather than Big Mam/Big Mom herself, he could have made up a batch of fancy sweets and handed them over in exchange for the Thousand Sunny's safe passage - he'd make it to Zou and the sweets would make their way to Big Mam, who would then want his cullinary skills for herself. I don't think current events with Sanji on Zou are immediately related to Big Mam though. Surely that's gotta be a set up to reveal the big issue/villains of the arc? I'd imagine they'd be connected to Kaidou rather than Big Mam given the animal theme in this arc.

Extra Big Mam theory: I read somewhere that Big Mam uses "ore" when speaking about herself. Since she is an unattractive woman in One Piece who uses a masculine identifier, could she end up being another mtf transvestite? Honestly I hope not because that joke's been run into the ground several times over and I want to see a powerful female main villain for once. Please Oda no.

Alternate wanted poster theory: G5 covering their bro's back.

It's not as if the artist formerly known as Sanji even cares about finding the all blue anymore, he basically declared it discovered the moment he found a bunch of fish people

It just means we get the chapter the same time Japan officially does. Technically the popular scanlations have been releasing chapters one week before they actually drop in Japan, which is why people think the official Viz releases are one week behind.

Presumably we won't be getting the early release from the Chinese raw. WSJ officially releases Sundays or Mondays right? So we didn't get "last week's" chapter because it was on break for the issue that released at the beginning of this week, which usually leaks several days in advance. We didn't get a chapter today/tomorrow because the leaker was arrested. But at the beginning of next week we should get the chapter that would have leaked tomorrow.

Does that seem accurate?

Yes, usually the biggest impact is that the "normal" release day gets slightly shuffled. I think usually it still results in scanilations coming out before the actual release, but I don't think it's happened since they switched over to simulpublishing so who knows.

While I of course want to read One Piece ASAP, I wouldn't necessarily mind if releases got pushed back to Mondays.

That happened with Academia this week. I excitedly read the scan chapter when it came out, then afterward I paused and thought, "Wait a second, I already have this in this week's Jump."

It's possible that with a shakeup, the habit of reading Bleach just because it's a thing you do on Thursday will be broken, giving myself and others another chance to stop reading Bleach, so its a fair trade imo!

If I remember, MHA scans got out about only an hour before the official Jump release.

I feel like the ones who'll get screwed the most on getting an English language release of Jump titles are the ones in countries that still don't have the English web-magazine.

I think the biggest shake-up was the crackdown that shifted the earliest release day from Wednesday to Thursday. And I think that's just because all the companies waited to send out their magazines a day later.

If we end up not getting scans until the magazine is actually out... that'd actually be pretty cool. It's still a week between each issue, and if we were getting it when it was released people who actually pay for Jump can join the current discussion.

"Early" doesn't actually mean anything with a constant rate.

Except for this one particular week where I want my One Piece now! :argh:

Funnily enough, this week Shueisha is releasing the magazine earlier. It's being released Saturday, so we should get stuff over the weekend.

The downside is that Viz doesn't adjust their releases for these situations.

I'd be glad if there's a permanent "shift to Mondays" too, since I won't have to read crappy translations to keep up with this thread anymore.

I'm not sure it will cure people of the habit of reading Bleach, though, since Bleach comes in English Shonen Jump too. Unless the suggestion is that people are more bored on Thursdays than on Mondays, and that's why they read Bleach?
