What’s this? Me giving less than 4 stars to a segment of ‘One Piece’? Yeah…about that. The main demotion comes from the culmination of Sanji’s time in the Kamabakka (“All-transvestite”) Queendom, and his behavior afterward. As I’ll explain below, I think I get what Oda was trying to do, but the execution is not great and by itself would get 1-2 stars. On the other hand, we get a lovely reunion of the crew after their 2 year training arcs and a relatively light-hearted adventure in an undersea kingdom. Also, you can tell Oda put a lot of research into drawing the underwater landscapes and learning about deep currents and such. All of those positives bump up the average for the whole.
With the help of ‘Dark King’ Rayleigh (former ‘King of the Pirates’ Gol D. Roger’s first mate) Luffy brazenly returns to Marinefort to pay tribute to and to send a message to his crew that he wants them to stay hidden and train for 2 years. That way, when they come in conflict with the government again they will be strong enough not to get wiped out like they did in Sabaody. The way he does this was surely all Rayleigh, because Luffy is NOT subtle enough to come up with I do love how, before we even see what Luffy did, we get a cut to Princess Vivi going ”Is it a fashion statement? No, this is LUFFY we’re talking about!”
But all the crew get the message, leading Luffy trains with Rayleigh on a small island near Amazon Lily. And Sanji, well…
Queerness in ‘One Piece’, part 4 – Kamabakka Queendom Retrospective To make sense of this part of the story, I want to first examine events from Iva’s point of view, and then Sanji’s. Then I’ll talk about how it could have been written differently to avoid reinforcing harmful stereotypes and/or better get across how it reflects Sanji’s fear of being perceived as weak/unmanly (something that it is later confirmed he has considerable trauma about).
TL;DR – a storyline that had immense potential, but which unfortunately was executed with less than Oda’s usual flair, creating seriously problematic elements. Chief among these are the images of the people of the Kamabakka Queendom which, unlike the queer people we meet elsewhere, look like the transphobic equivalent of Nazi anti-Jewish cartoons – and I’ve actually seen them used that way! I REALLY don’t think Oda would want that, even just based on the story up to this point, and he may have learned from negative feedback, because the trans characters introduced later in Wano are handled with MUCH greater sensitivity. But THIS can’t be undone…which is a pitfall in serialized media especially.
If it hadn't been for the general sense of ickiness, I could have enjoyed certain moments a lot more. For instance, when Sanji gets dropped him off in the Sabaody Archipelago:
“Okama 1: Looks like we have to say goodbye, Sanji! I’ll miss you!...
Sanji: I never want to see you again! But thanks for bringing me here! Give my regards to Iva!
Okama 2: He’s as wild and dangerous as ever. But, you know, boys always pretend to hate the girls they like the most!”
That weird mix of aggressive and polite is very Sanji – recalling his goodbye to his adoptive father Zeff – and that last sentence EXACTLY describes his relationship with Zoro! (Those two are so goddamn tsundere, jeez). Unfortunately, because Oda likes to keep a gag going, we have to get Sanji freaking out over anything that reminds him of those two years for quite a while, renewing the icky feelings for the reader.
Sanji’s behavior around (cis) women after leaving the Kamabakka Queendom also comes very close to making me hate one of my favorite characters! Not quite, because A) I know he gets positive character growth in his relationship with women later, B) him running around sniffing women and getting life-threatening nosebleeds over every pair of tits he sees could be interpreted as him steering so hard back into heteronormativity that he WAY overshoots and ends up in creepytown. C) Everyone treats this as HIS problem, instead of, say, telling Nami to put a shirt on. And D) he’s back to his “normal” self before the end of this omnibus. Which means that he may twirl around praising the mermaid princess’ beauty and serving tea for her, Nami, and Camie, but he isn’t acting openly lustful…and as soon as Nami tells him to settle down because they’re trying to have a serious discussion with Jimbei about the legacies of slavery, he clams up and sits down.
I will say the one place Sanji’s lady obsession gets funny is where all that interacts with Luffy continuing to act like an aroace icon. Luffy is not/no longer oblivious to the fact that Boa Hancock, canonically the most beautiful woman in the world, wants to marry him. He just cheerfully turns her down while thanking her for the snacks she brought any time it comes up! Anyway, we get this:
“Luffy: I ended up on the island of women. They’re all my friends now…
Sanji (sobbing): YOU’D BETTER HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN TRAINING DURING THE LAST TWO YEARS!!
Luffy (on a completely different wavelength): I did. It went great.”
Mugiwara No Goofy covered why the Straw Hats’ reunion in Sabaody is hilarious far better than I ever could, so I refer you to his video for that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yoa_U...
Their ship, the Thousand Sunny has been coated in a bubble that lets it descend safely into the depth of the sea, and the Straw Hats make their way toward Fishman Island. Along the way we see some crazy gorgeous art of sea creatures from Oda, and the “monster trio” fight a giant octopus, with Luffy actually succeeding in taming the creature. They have to crash through another bubble wall to get to Fishman Island, which results in the crew getting partially separated, and various shenanigans ensue.
I couldn’t find a link to the best sea-life images, but this panel of King Neptune’s palace will give an idea of the level of detail we’re dealing with!
I don’t think we’ve ever seen the Straw Hats semi-accidentally acting like real pirates before, but it is quite funny. For instance, Nami takes an invitation to select some merchandise for free as the invitation to clean out a whole store! Then while the Straw Hats are having dinner with King Neptune (who is a giant coelocath merman, BTW – so cool!) Luffy wanders off and “kidnaps” the mermaid princess Shirahoshi. Well, what actually happened is that . THEN some people show up saying there’s a prophecy the Straw Hats will destroy the island, so to avoid getting arrested Zoro fights them all, and this ends with them sorta holding the whole palace hostage!
That prophecy comes from Madam Sharley, who had a vision of Luffy basically burning the whole place down. Which is a tall order given that they’re under water, but her visions have never lied before! I don’t think I ever fully understood the anime “waifu” concept…but apparently that’s because most animes don’t contain enough goth shark-mermaid ladies, because I definitely want this woman’s number:
Of course, Oda being Oda, this undersea jaunt isn’t ALL silliness! And I love that Nami has processed her own trauma and taken in the knowledge she’s gained about the history of humans enslaving and mistreating mer- and fish-people to the point that she is willing to hear Jimbei out about his connection to Arlong. Jimbei tells the story of Queen Otohime (Princess Shirahoshi’s mother) who wanted Fishman island to make peace with humans through diplomacy, and Fisher Tiger, who defied the World Government to free human and fishman slaves (including a young Boa Hancock!) by force. And then both Otohime and Fisher Tiger were shot…which is probably Oda going for an MLK and Malcom X parallel. Not a perfect one, since Otohime wasn’t organizing sit-ins and to my knowledge Malcom X never broke a bunch of people out of jail. But we do get Jimbe directly stating that the most powerful most fear change (and, by implication, are likely to get dirty to stop it, even when their opponent’s methods are peaceful).
Finally, Robin taking out the undersea cops who interrupt her search for the local poneglyph without ever breaking her “chill tourist” vibes is so funny. I think people forget how powerful she is, because she never STARTS a fight. But if you threaten her, her friends, or an archeological site, she will DESTROY you. Luffy may be an unsquashable rubber man, but Robin can snap necks from across the room!

Let's be real, if you've gotten this far and weathered the time skip you're in for the long haul. I didn't love some of the new character designs but they've all grown on me. I think they fit well with where the Straw Hats are now and we're just starting to see the true extent of any new abilities. As usual, Oda crafts characters that are lovable and goofy in their own ways, and I still haven't encountered anyone I straight out disliked. Even the villains have great designs and wacky traits that make them enjoyable. The general designs of female characters hasn't changed and if anything has gotten....larger in some aspects, but it doesn't heavily detract from the series and is probably something you're used to seeing if you've read other manga or watched anime.
The Fishman Island arc sets out to tackle some heavy themes, namely racism, and so far I think it's handled them well and shown a variety of different view points. Not to mention the art is great and the entire underwater world is a lovely setting (I'd recommend trying the colored version for this one, it really adds to the scenery).
I can't say how reading this section would have been if I had to read it a chapter a week, but powering through it (mostly) all at once makes up for any pacing problems so it read through fine.

This is a necessary "re-set" of sorts, after the cataclysmic events of recent volumes.
The "Time-Skip" is handled reasonably well, and it's nice to revisit these characters and see how they've changed in the interim, and to give the readers a chance to breathe after the break-neck story so far.
(I hope the MCU actually takes a page from this book, actually. After "Endgame", I feel like they need to re-invent and re-invigorate the character for the next arc of the overall saga.)

Series: One Piece #61-63
Rating: 4 stars - It was really good
In this volume, Luffy sends the message to the crew to wait two years before returning to Sabody. Two years later they return to Sabody stronger and more determined than ever to continue to the new world. This starts their adventure on Fish-Man Island. They meet King Neptune, his sons, Princess Shirahoshi, and meet Jimbei again. So far the merpeople and their history has been very interesting. We learn the truth about the Sun Pirates and the Arlong Pirates. I am really enjoying all the characters in this arc and can’t wait to see how their story plays out.

So... I'm back to reading One Piece. And I have enjoyed these 3 volumes a lot... just not as much as some of the previous ones. The ending of Post-war arc and the entire Return to Sabaody were great but the Fishman Island itself does not work for me the way some previous arcs did.
The best part of these volumes is for sure the crew getting back together and their relationships with each other. As usual, Zoro and Sanji steal the show and Sanji himself is also very funny for reasons I won't spoil
The plot itself was fine but nothing that special so I'm giving it 4 stars. I hope the second half of Fishman Island arc will get better for me but it's still enjoyable so it's not exactly that big of a problem.
The rest of this review will contain SPOILERS!
Okay let's talk about Sanji and how he's one of the best characters in One Piece. The sheer fact that he was stuck on an island without women and almost died because of a severe nosebleed upon seeing hot women in Sabaody is comedy gold. Also he turned into stone for a few moments when he saw the mermaid princess which is hilarious. Even better is the fact that this somehow cured him and turned him back to a normal pervert. And then my boy defends Nami when that creep Caribou is saying some inappropriate things which is just chef's kiss.
I also have to talk about Zoro because... well, it's Zoro. I mean Zori as king Neptune would say. First of all, I love that Mihawk was the one training him for 2 years because that's just really not what I'd expect from him. Also Perona threatening him because she was the one who brought him to Sabaody (we all know he'd get lost on the way otherwise)... I love her for that. I love that Zoro is the second most stupid person in the crew in this arc and how everyone is constantly trying to stop him and Luffy from breaking the bubble. But he did have his badass moment when he hurt Hordy (I think that was his name) underwater.
Then we have Luffy who is just a delight to watch. My man calls Rayleigh - one of the most badass people alive - old man (also Rayleigh cries when the crew leaves which is just wholesome). The scene with fake Luffy trying to fight Luffy was also hilarious and I loved Luffy's confusion.
I must also mention Usopp and Nami because they were really cool in that bar where the fake Strawhats were threatening them.
Fish tiger's backstory was very compelling and sad and I also have to mention how weird it is to see Arlong and Jimbei fighting together. I also like the mermaid princess and how her brothers have promised to protect her. That was just really sweet.

My hatred of Sanji grows with each volume... The overall story is still great, but I had a lot of trouble in this omnibus with Oda's unquestioned misogyny. I hate how Brook is constantly asking after young girl's underpants, and it's awful how Sanji takes every opportunity to be transphobic and compare the trans women he spent two years with to "real" women. He could've used that period of time to get to know trans people as individuals and to overcome his transphobic prejudices, but no. Instead, he became even worse, and I detest him for that.
Aside from characters such as Sanji and Brook who leer at female characters and treat them inappropriately, setting terrible standards for the young boy whom this series is geared towards, the narrative itself devalues its female characters. True, we get characters such as the former goldfish queen, whose design I enjoy and whose worldview is interesting compared to those of the other characters. But we also get a prophecy that involves a woman born with significant powers, who is destined to be guided to greatness by a man. This might not have irked me so much had I not already been fuming over Sanji and Brook and the constant sexism undermining an otherwise riveting story.
I will continue with this series, but I think I need a break after the whiplash of emotions that these volumes caused.

The journey to Fishman Island was so long and such a drag at that point it was abt 3/5
BUT THEN wow once they arrive and the flashbacks chef freaking kiss. Also shoutout to Franky for being the MVP during the journey to Fishmen Island bro was so effortlessly hilarious I can't even.
SPOILER ALERT:
The Fish-Man Island Arc is a thematic masterpiece that dissects the psychology of generational trauma. Fisher Tiger's incredible strength shines as he understands his oppressors' race and forbids his crew from killing, choosing not to inflict or perpetuate violence against his slavers. This meal strength stands in stark contrast to his trauma: his final refusal of human blood to save his life proves just how deep the damage of slavery truly runs. His choice, born of profound pain and immense willpower, is a devastating lesson in breaking the cycle.

Oda-sensei keeps making wonderful things with his worldbuilding, getting us back to the stories of one of the first and long ago villains such as Arlong and its Arlong Park. Just brillant. And not just that: the lore is getting bigger and bigger while we meet more fantastic characters that, somehow, after all these years, are still fresh and different all along.

Essa é uma resenha padrão para a minha leitura de one piece já que o app só conta como lidos os livros com resenha vou deixar esse texto aqui. Perdão a qualquer pessoa que queira ler uma resenha sobre o mangá, mas está sendo uma boa experiência e eu recomendo que leia, vale muito a pena.
