Oars and Calgara have their birthdays today.
 
Today we have four character birthdays!

I'll start with Monkey D. Dragon, since he has a character song:

Also celebrating birthdays today are Marco, Van Auger, and Kokoro.
 
Okay, we got three big birthdays today!

First up is Tashigi! Here's her pixiv tag, and here's her character song:

Next is my favorite male character and second favorite character overall, Trafalgar Law! Here's his pixiv tag, and here's his first character song:

Finally, we have Bartolomeo the Cannibal! Here's his pixiv tag, and here's a scene that had me laughing so hard I scared my sister:
 
Alright, I think tonight is supposed to be the debut of Katakuri lying on his back and gluttonously eating chocolate donuts.

As for Barto. I kinda disliked him at first. When he was getting his debut, people tried to make him out to be some sort of "Beast-faced" person who seemed like he was going to be a bad guy.

Then his design came out and, wow, that's a really stupid face. Then, a few chapters later when he started going "Sempai! Sempai!" it became clear that Oda gave him a stupid face just to make it look stupider.

But he ended up growing on me.

I must've initially disliked him just like I disliked the beginning of the Colosseum section because of my whole hatred of "Luffy Showing off" parts (hey, thats the FOURTH time!)
 
Well @trombonista , a bunch of new birthdays recently got revealed.

https://thelibraryofohara.com/2018/10/08/vivre-card-databook-vol-2-all-the-new-information/

And I heard on Arlong Park forums that there is soon to be a big reveal of every child of Big Mom and their designs. When is it coming out?
Probably when the vivre card expansions hit the Whole Cake Island arc.

Artur's been doing a great job with those, no wonder he gets the raws early.

Sorry man, didn't get your notification for some reason (:dienull:#DieNull:dienull:).

I think I was busy that day or something lol.
 
Today we have three birthdays: Norland, Magellan, and Dosun!
 
Today is Smoothie's birthday!
Smoothie is honestly the commander I want to see the most in upcoming arcs, she was very underutilized in the Whole Cake arc.

There will be even more birthdays and data coming in the new Vivre card packs:

Found through r/OnePiece, but here's a DA link to give this artist the proper credit for an awesome job.

Oh, thoughts on the new opening "Super Powers", by the way?
 
Yeah, the graphics are nice for the most part. "Super Powers" didn't bother me the first time (wondering if it has something to do with MAL having the "super power" genre and One Piece is labeled as such; the lyrics also don't come off as straying far from the show's themes--maybe it's just out-of-place where it is in the story), but I'm going to give it a shot a few more times to see if it grows on me. Sometimes I don't like a song at first, but after a few episodes I come to not mind it. "Crazy Rainbow" was one such example, which was super jarring after the awesomeness that is "Brand New World".

In the meantime, I think "Wake up!" is my least favorite opening, with "Kaze wo Sagashite" a close second.
 
"Hope" was the greatest One Piece Opening since Kokoro No Chizu, and it got replaced with this lame and repetitive "Super Powers" garbage.

But at least the new scenes are good. Got probably the best image of Snack so far.
 
Spoilers are out today, this means that the chapter will be out on Friday:

https://www.reddit.com/r/OnePiece/comments/9p5n1n/one_piece_921_spoilers/

One Piece 921 Chapter Title: " Shutenmaru "

The Fire Festival is a grand spectacle held yearly

The festival celebrates Kaido as the great king who protects the country.

On that day, Orochi Shogun holds a parade going to Onigashima to pay homage

There will be a banquet hosted by officials and the Beast Pirates


Kin'emon draws some pictures on a piece of paper including a fire, a two-winged island and a converse crescent moon.

The fire represents the festival, the two-winged island represents the Chinese Zodiac Bird and the moon represents their rebellion.

He also draws a port.


Franky managed to draw a diagram of Kaido's estate after becoming an apprentice of his carpenter

Robin is drawing closer to Orochi as a geisha and is working on a strategy.

Kinemon thinks Brook's ability will be relevant to the city's food supplies

Nami's weather techniques are like a Kunoichi (might mean she will disguise herself as one?)

Sanji's cooking helps him gather people together and find the ones they're looking for

Carrot and Chopper are going to talk to Inu

Everyone gets a disguise from Kinemon

Everyone changes into Japanese clothes, Nami in a revealing Kimono. While nosebleeding, Kinemon insists that this is what kunoichis look like Kinemon wants to go look for 3 strong allies, among them Ashura Doji


The food Luffy brought to Okobore town is taken by some mountain bandits

The townsfolk resist but are no match for them

Their boss Shutenmaru points his katana at the townsfolk, there are no strong samurai around to protect them

They say that without strong samurai, this country is done for

Jack comes for Shutenmaru

Jack says he thought Luffy would be there, Shutenmaru says he doesn't know

If you wanna live, you gotta become Kaido's underling, Jack tells him

Quick as a flash, Shutenmaru cuts Jack

'Don't underestimate the Samurai!'

The two fight almost equally but Jack proves superior


While they fight, the sky turns grey

Law tells Luffy to look at the sky.

A dragon's form is shown among the clouds telling Jack to bring those kids to him.

Law tells us it is Kaido.


Chapter end

Oh Oda, you're so endearing when you're thinking of your wife.

Wut. What does that mean.

No need for me to post any pictures of Jack here, he's already badass as is, and it's really nice to see him again. Still have no clue how he survived drowning, but eh. Guess we already got one of the samurai, just gotta see the other two.

AND SHIT'S GOING DOWN ALREADY??!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Oh man, things are already heating up, and it's just the start of the arc, unless it's a short one. The next chapters are going to be fucking intense.
