The post literally after you answered your question. Go google it or something. Just knowing it's a Beatles song is really good enough though.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_in_the_Sky_with_Diamonds posted:


"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" is a song written primarily by John Lennon and credited to Lennon–McCartney,[1] for the Beatles' 1967 album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.[2] This album became the biggest selling album of the 1960s and remains today the biggest selling studio album in India, among other countries.

Lennon's son, Julian, inspired the song with a nursery school drawing he called "Lucy — in the sky with diamonds". Shortly after the song's release, speculation arose that the first letter of each of the title nouns intentionally spelled LSD.[3] Although Lennon denied it, the BBC banned the song. In a 2004 interview, Paul McCartney said that the song is about LSD, stating, "A song like 'Got to Get You into My Life', that's directly about pot, although everyone missed it at the time ... Day Tripper", he says, "that's one about acid. 'Lucy in the Sky,' that's pretty obvious. There's others that make subtle hints about drugs, but, you know, it's easy to overestimate the influence of drugs on the Beatles' music."[4]

Thanks, pal! Here's the song for I guess the one other guy who never got around to listening to The Beatles.

Kinda, but he is a bear that talks and walks on two legs so it's understandable.

One Piece has been sorely lacking in the Bepo department, get on that poo poo Oda.

The only problem I have with those two and really even Papugg who just speaks human because he didn't know he's not supposed to is that Chopper was supposed to be a unique case, an animal who ate a fruit to do what they just do for no reason. Obviously Chopper has his forms for combat and stuff so it's not a lost cause but it just seems weird to me. Chopper often communicates with animals for the crew, it's possible Papugg doesn't actually speak animal since he never learned, but can Bepo and Pekoms?

Chopper's human point is more than just human speech, he can also get opposable thumbs. Additionally brain point lets him think really hard. We also don't know enough about Bepo and Pekoms I think :( I hope that gets fixed at some point!

I've seen it theorized that people like Bepo, Pekoms, and Baron Tamago are the "Minkmen" mentioned on the slave price list; basically land Fishmen. I prefer to think that they're aliens, since the Space Pirates from Enel's cover story looked like anthropomorphic animals.

I personally think Bepo, Pekoms and Monet are examples of the downside to using artificial zoan fruits. Maybe the fruits wear off after a few years and their human/animal split forms become their new normal form.

Kind of makes sense since they all have a tie to Doffy or the yonkou, and Pekoms shows he ate a turtle zoan after his lion one wore off.

I assumed that Law replaced Monet's arms/legs and thats why Derringer has lady legs. Her arms are probably out there somewhere.

Or maybe Derringer just has lady legs because One Piece.

e: and I think Oda said that Bepo is just a straight up bear.

Bepo is definitely a bear. When he heard about Amazon Lily, he inquired as to whether there would be lady bears.

Unless he's a furry who was into bears before he turned into one.

Or maybe he's into girl bears now that he himself is a bear. No sense in chasing after the human women anymore.

specifically some dude gets them before they're shipped out to stores. they're scanned before people can legally buy them. ultimately this makes combating piracy of the manga* problematic because the pirates get the manga first, so they would have to put the issue up on like tuesday morning on the internet to ever have an advantage over piracy. before when we got the issues later on in the weeks years ago, someone had to buy them from a store that would break street date.
