HerraS posted:What does Shirahoshi's dad have to do with the fact that no planet has ever been called Poseidon Neptune is called Poseidon in Greek/Greece. Also when looking this up I learned that the planet Neptune’s name is translated into “Sea King Star” in Japanese, which I guess is why some translations use the term Neptunians for Sea Kings.

Mraagvpeine posted:Speaking of, does Imu's name have a reference to a celestial thing? One of the meanings of "mu" is emptiness... like outer space! Anyway, drat what a chapter! I appreciate that he didn't leave us on a cliffhanger right before the big break. At least, not a new cliffhanger, technically we're still hanging from that Egghead Island Incident cliff. Really excited to be introduced to a new group of Elite Government Agents, I can't wait to see what sorts of quirky personalities and powers they have. And all the 5 Elder Planets power! When Oda gets back with perfect vision, we're gonna be in for a wild ride.

Wii Spawn Camper posted:Neptune is called Poseidon in Greek/Greece. Yeah, I guess it's a pretty big flub for Oda to have specifically called the one that is central to a different culture/race of people than the rest of them by the name used by a different culture of people in real life. Smh

If the Five elders aren’t also immortal I wonder if they’re former God’s knights

Mraagvpeine posted:Speaking of, does Imu's name have a reference to a celestial thing? Okay, let me rephrase this. In the chapter, they said that there was a "Saint Imu of House Nerona" and I'm wondering if Imu Nerona/Nerona Imu might be a reference to a celestial thing.

Eiba posted:I did not remember that name from that movie at all. Looking it up apparently the Elder Stars were speculating if Uta was a member of that family. As speculation it's very unclear what concrete information can be taken from it. It seemed plausible, but by no means certain that it was Shanks' name. The reasoning is something like... The Five Elders (mistakenly) believe that Uta is Shank's child by blood, and believe that she might be from the Figarland family as a result. Of course, Uta is Shanks's adopted daughter, and does not share his lineage. Ergo, the actual Figarland is Shanks.

I think the thing that nails it down is that his closing line is basically the polar opposite of shanks' whole philosophy

The chop-chop fruit would be an amazing fruit for a haki-proficient user or someone with exceptional physical attributes like a seraphim/lunarian. Sadly, as buggy demonstrates, it alone cannot carry you in power
