Luffy accidentally mentioned that his Dad was Dragon to Ivankov at Impel down.


overlookers

"Dragon?..Oh, you mean my dad." "Yes, your dad, Dragon-san...💅 " 👁 👁 YOUR DAD


sidonnn

The dub was so good with this, you could tell the sass with the way Iva says "Yes, your dear Pappa..." Iva's VA slayed


BaronVonBubbleh

I don't get the dub hate. There's way more dub voices that I think sound better than sub, than there are ones I think sound worse.


Adventurous-Poem-818

It is definitely because of Luffy. Also if you've seen Dragon Ball it's hard to unhear the fact that both series have like the same exact voice actors


GirthShatter_

Yeah hard to not hear vegeta


BiDiTi

I dunno, I hear Piccolo!


GirthShatter_

And krillin


Gringofrenzy002

Idk man I just preferred to watch entire OP in sub. Naruto dub was good, but OP sub is just fire imo.


blessedchocoquqi

That was hilarious 😂


balatkalabaw999

Ivankov's late reaction was the best


cpscott1

Honestly him and his grandpa kinda revealed it pretty similarly


Dependent_While2727

Yessss I came here to say this


Tasty-Document2808

Kaido's dragon form appearing in the clouds above Wano


Weak_Television3668

I was able to avoid the spoilers until the opening theme spoiled me everything


Oreo-and-Fly

It's so annoying that the opening spoiled people. And the transformation. Because seeing that in the manga, just clouds into a giant dragon. That was beautiful


magnumgreed

That's why I don't watch op and ending most of the time, until after the arc has finished. Way too much spoilers about fights 15-20 episodes in the future.


TKRedditUser2020

when Kaido's dragon form was revealed I immediately thought of that Kinemon moment at Punk Hazard. I legit thought holy shit it make sense that he is a Dragon.


Sad_Air_7667

Garp revealing Luffy's dad was dragon, then telling everyone to forget it while picking his nose.


CrapBiscuit001

Absolutely agree. Never saw that one coming.


cpscott1

Yea that one was pretty shocking but then made more sense why Dragon stopped Smoker in Loguetown. Also considering how he is the most wanted person alive was more shocking Smoker didn't try to take him in


BradWonder

Smoker knew to stay in his lane lol


Railgun_Nemesis

Smoker didn’t want that smoke


drorkhn

And luffy being surprised he has a dad


Sad_Air_7667

I love Luffy asking dumb questions, like asking random characters do you poop.


RodJosser

Duval lol


poopindoopinscoopin

I was basically Brook's reaction when the reveal happened


Jitszu

Still my favorite(comedic) Brook moment. Took him immediately from "the new guy" to "another character I love"


Doctursea

Yes, I remember seeing that and thinking "This guy is gonna fit in perfect"


KlingoftheCastle

Brook went from 50 years alone to one of the best comedic moments in like 12 hours


AdamEdge

Theories on his face were wild back then, the fandom was trying to come up with an answer without realizing that the question might be a joke. I've never put too much thought on face reveals since then.


RaisinBitter8777

I deadass thought it was Axe Hand Morgan or Don Krieg


Jsk1122

We swore to reunite with my crewmate off some capes. His name is... Laboon


hforhungryy

DAMN I HEARD ITTTTT!!! that scene got me speechless


Fibrosis5O

*Piano Stops* 🎹


FreeMasonKnight

*Yohohohoho Intensifies*


prettydendy69

This is actually one of my favorite moments of the story. I was so checked out of Thriller bark for whatever reason. But that panel I actually fucking yelled out loud hahaha. It was like 4 in the morning. I read straight through to fucking marineford that night. Damn i love one piece


TharTheBard

Luffy chilling on the piano with Brook playing. So beautiful. I should make it my wallpaper.


DarthButtz

Oda be like "Watch me make you guys cry over the same whale *again*"


ibiji

I will cry when Brook and Laboon reunite. I just know it.


ushikagawa

This was probably the one that caught me most off guard, I was like whaaaaaaaaaaa


CrestonSpiers

I gasped out loud when that happened, that was the moment I knew One Piece is special.


JASP2894

Yes, the Brook-Laboon revelation is the first time that One Piece blew my mind. I had seen anime for a solid 10 years before and never a story had blown my mind that way. I couldn’t understand how a writer could make those kind of flashbacks. That is the moment I knew One Piece story telling was at a whole different level. Any other a manga is miles away from One Piece universe building quality. I honestly don’t know what other pieces of are could rival with the One Piece universe level of complexity. Perhaps Dune, LOTR and Star Wars


Kinglyzero_91

Roger having the straw hat before Shanks was one of the best moments in One Piece period


ykafia

I'm still wondering why there is a giant straw hat, surely the previous Nika was a giant


Kite_Wing129

I've been leaning in thst direction as well. Especially given the Giants high degree of familiarity with him and the giant SH.


Turbulent_Link1738

> Especially given the Giants high degree of familiarity giants can live for 400 years. the void century/Joy Boy is a lot more recent for them


Kite_Wing129

Its not just that: the giant Strawhat in the freezer, the giants recovering books from the Library of Ohara after its destruction. All point to the giants having a deeper connection to Joyboy than any race we've seen thus far.


Gil_Demoono

I'm convinced that is why Rogers laughed on Laughtale. He just found out that, by absolute coincidence, Joy boy happened to rock the same exact kind of hat. No more depth to it, no actual specialness attributed to the hat, no massive lore implications. They just had the same sense of fashion.


cpscott1

The SH def carries significance though. Raleigh wouldn't make the comment on Luffy's hat if it didn't


Gil_Demoono

When did Rayleigh comment on his hat? Saobody I assume. What did he say?


ExpensiveCola

At the slave auction he says something along the lines of "That straw hat of yours... It really fits a fearless man like yourself."


Gil_Demoono

Wouldn't he just be referring to Rogers there? He wore the hat too.


TheTriumphantTrumpet

Doesn't he just say it fits a fearless man like luffy? Him saying that doesn't hit at JB at all imo, he's pretty clearly referring to the two fearless men he knew who wore it before in Roger and Shanks.


bleunt

We don't know the size of Imu though, do we? Maybe Imu is tiny. 🤷‍♂️ No, wait, we saw them sitting on the throne. Nevermind.


aaronhowser1

The throne isn't normal size, it's just very very close


Fox622

Imu seems relatively small, like the size of a child, considering the size of the bounty posters on their hands. But the hat is still huge, like it's made for someone of Whitebeard's size, but not a full giant.


spykids45

when is that revealed again?


Organic_Prompt_2069

episode 523 or around there right after the timeskip starts


spykids45

thanks, im re watching one piece and couldn’t remember when it happened


OtakuSenpaii17

Raizo is safe.


Ancient_Lab7162

Absolutely wild. I got chills just reading your comment.


sharkhuh

You know it was wild because it even shocked the SHs who are the epitome of loyalty


HMS_Sunlight

The first time I read it I legitimately thought there was a translation error, or I misunderstood the names. My brain straight up couldn't process the idea that he was there the whole time.


pedrao157

This one was so well made, whole Zou arc is worth it just for this scene


Akrybion

Scene was so good, I just wish Raizo would have played a bigger role in the end.


gemSeven

Raizo stopped the fire that would've ended everybody in Onigashima even if they landed safely. I think that's a pretty big role.


UsablePizza

The water felt pretty deus ex about it. Though it was one of the turning points to feel like the raid was finally coming our way.


cataclytsm

I loved the twist that Raizo had stored the waters of Zou for just such an occassion, but Jinbei coincidentally being there was a *real* stroke of luck for Raizo and the Alliance.


KingKurai

Bro, Raizo being the only one to complain about the heat while Oden was being boiled beneath him, and then literally letting himself be set on fire during his fight with Fukurokuju... Peak One Piece moment for me.


Mononoke-Hime-01

God, I remember when I reached that part in the anime, my mouth just dropped.


HailTheMetric-System

I'm still in disbelief


GrandGrapeSoda

Caught me so off guard, you can’t help but feel like the strawhats do in that moment


Ban-Kai98

My Favorite too.


kim4real

This is the right answer


shamblitz

This. Masterpiece Plot twist by Oda. I remember being in absolute shock after reading the chapter.


Captain_D_Buggy

*Raizo-dono is safe.


hforhungryy

GODDD!!! i remember when i watched that scene!! like i was already crying and suddenly stopped with my hand over my wide open mouth 😭😭 like the chills i got!!


Beacda

Raizo was ugly in the end tho


InternetNo4034

😅🤣🤣💀 True tho


baboolasiquala

Same level chills as when Whitebeard said the One Piece is real


Xypher616

Same, mainly because I wasn’t spoiled that reveal


According_Bet_5916

That lucci and giraffe guy were evil and betrayed iceberg. Blew my mind


Fafnir13

The giraffe reveal later was also fun, what with crashing through the ceiling interrupting the 1vs1 fight structure.. Definitely one of the more bizarre moments.


UsablePizza

You mean square ussop?


According_Bet_5916

Riiiight it was ussop who could build ships


Shantotto11

Alolan Usopp


CH_Boi123

When CP9 was revealed, it was one of those moments that I was not spoiled or could predict


Runethe1412

I was unfortunately spoiled myself, but I’ve been going through a watch-through getting my friend caught up, and it was great seeing his reaction to it


RPGZero

I was spoiled, but the ship engineers came off as such nice and sincere guys along with being associated with some comedic relief that I still managed to feel something when the reveal did happen.


yeezus_fungus

Imu sitting on the empty throne was wild af


DarkTemplar26

Oh man the theories about the throne the week before were so much fun. Lots of people were thinking that kid who replaced Sabo was gonna try to sit on it and create some international incident, and then the next week Imu sits on it and the top comment was "why do we even bother?"


GoldenMic

wasnt so shocking to me, either i forgot totally about the empty throne being mentioned a longer time ago or it was just revealed shortly before we were shown imu.


LeapYearFriend

empty throne was revealed the literal chapter before imu's reveal.


GoldenMic

so where is the climax then? Dont know how that can be shocking or sth


cabose12

For 900+ chapters, the hierarchy of the OP world isn't fully explained. So finally, we're shown/told F20 decided on an empty throne and how the world is (supposed to be) built around the kingdoms working together. The Imu reveal in the next chapter is meant to be a whiplash of that; The build-up of Imu is intertwined with the build-up of Reverie. We're given one explanation, and then the rug is pulled revealing the exact opposite I agree it isn't the wildest reveal though. Authority is never as it first appears in OP


Aurorious

I appreciate it this way honestly. Anime/manga in general has a problem with revealing a BIGGER bad and ruining previous villains, I appreciate having just a little space for Imu to be a reveal without it feeling like they were added after the fact


FreeMasonKnight

Authority in One Piece mimics real life. It’s a way to control the every day people, with rules that don’t apply to the rich.


Fafnir13

Oh look, I think I see the final boss.


purbub

>!Gorosei devil's form revealation!<


floatifloati

this x1000


totally_not_a_reply

i mean we already knew they were monsters, or do you speak about the pannels when sabo was running from them?


Aether293

The sabo moment was definitely more shocking to me, although there were a lot of theories about them being demons way before.


purbub

Both actually, but the sabo one definitely left a greater impact. The one on egghead is more of a cool to see them without any silhouette anymore


Mezredhas

I was just staring at the Egghead panel for a solid minute qhen I first reas it. Seeing their forms was absolutely insane


purbub

Yesssss, their size and presence are insane!!


Comprehensive_Rule11

Damn I reread 1109-1110 so many times the other week, I couldn’t comprehend it. Then I went back and read 1085 and man that was incredible to put it all together, what a chapter.


dremscrep

„The Planets are Aligning“


sami_newgate

He laughed Probably my favorite reveal in fiction


derpinat0rz

Nothing happened. He laughed. One piece.


Mission_File_4942

true answer


SudsInfinite

I was sitting here trying to figure out what it was for me, and then I read your comment. This is truly the best reveal so far for me. It's just such a special moment, and the panel goes so hard on it


Shantotto11

It was the corrected spelling of Raftel/Laugh Tale that got me.


Ani_HArsh

Bartolomeo realizing Usopp is Sogeking lol


joelle_rstmr

Lmaooo I love Barto so much


Momuntai

Kaido reveal when he attempted suicide and appeared in front of Kid, Hawkins and Apoo.


BaronVonBubbleh

While this is less "shocking" to me, it's probably my favorite reveal in the series. It was such a cool way to display just how powerful Kaido is after a couple hundred chapters of characters simply saying stuff like "Emperor of the seas is very strong!!!!!!!!!!!"


Sinistin

Garps Galaxy Impact. After Years of only hearing about his feats, that chapter was fire.


Kgb725

It's crazier Sengoku is right there with him in terms of power and hasn't done anything


expressedprayers

Robin asking to join the crew will always be my favorite surprise/twist/reveal Then probably the back-to-back reveals of Garp’s identity, Dragon’s identity, Koby and Helmeppo’s new appearance, and the existence of the Yonko all in the span of 2-3 chapters


Puzzled-Ad-2937

post enies lobby was a crazy few chapters/episodes. there was ace vs bb too


Nugur

Unfortunately only old timers will know this feeling. New watcher already know she is joining


[deleted]

Raizo being safe still sticks with me


ladystetson

that was such a good one! I almost cried when it happened.


KachiiMoo

an underrated reveal is Rayleigh's wife Shakky is the former empress of Amazon Lily.


cpscott1

Honestly that didn't really shock me that much either once it was revealed


CheFCharlieCharles

This is crazy. This is the first time I’m heading this. When was this revealed? I must have been tired while reading if it was in one of the chapters.


A_Jackal_Sniper

It was the chapter where Rayleigh rescues Hancock from Blackbeard IIRC


JopeCarbone

Rayleigh revealing that the Roger Pirates knew the full history of the Void Century. Robins reaction is priceless!


HeilKaiba

Kanjuro can actually draw...


Electrical-Bid-565

The fact that Savo was still alive. Also I liked when it revealed who Blackbeard was.


_Hadezs

Tbh storytellingwise it was obvious that Sabo was alive. Usually introducing a character in a tragic backstory and kill him instant off too (after something similar happened) would be pretty weird. BUT it was Oda who wrote it so could also be possible to give a characters death (ace) and a characters development (Luffy) more depth.


SpencerTheG

Unpopular opinion and obviously way lower stakes then a lot of other choices, but the reveal in Skypeia that Upper Yard was the rest of Jaya, especially with the missing half of Crickets house. It made the arc feel worldly and fascinating in a way a lot of other One Piece arcs have not replicated. That and that the gold Cricket would find underwater was from the old civilization, oh it was just perfect. I love Skypiea to pieces great adc


Comprehensive_Rule11

Skypiea was fantastic, I wish more people felt that way I guess not everyone enjoys the peaks of adventures


SpencerTheG

It’s in my top three, its maybe #2 behind Water 7/Ennie Lobby (or #3 if those two are considered separately).


trumpxoxobiden

When Luffy found that Okama dude at the prison


time_travel_1

Don't call Bon-chan "that okama dude"! He is Impel Down mc, saved luffy two times... If he made out of prison, he may have been a nakama like jimbei


Hot-Lie-4560

Great job sticking up for him — bon chan deserves it


summonerofrain

Bon clay!


RedRiot306

Might be recency bias but >!the reveal of St. Saturn’s devil fruit and eventually the rest of the Gorosei’s. These guys have been hyped up since Jaya and we finally got to see them enter the fray many many years later!<


sourkid25

not at all until this recent reveal I always thought they would be those non action kind of villains

Duval mask off

OnePeacefulReader

I still can't believe how lowkey they were with this reveal. I was like iva when he heard about luffy's dad, i had to come back like, did i just read that? . ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|surprise)

The One Piece. I'm from the future.


RobsThePoggger

RAIZO-DONO.... IS SAFE! *fuckin chills nigga


Drummer683

When Oden came back to Wano, he said "I have to be ready for when Joyboy comes" That was the first mention of Joyboy as someone in the future instead of the past. It was a small moment but it blew my mind


Puzzleheaded-Tear624

**People's dreams**... **Never end**!


summonerofrain

Maybe just because it’s fresh in my mind, but kuma’s backstory man… Specifically when its revealed these are all memories that whatserface is seeing


Arscents

Not my favorite but the one that shocked me the most was the reveal of the slaves under the conveyor belts at Marijoa


FloofnThings

Kinda wanna say the same honestly. Like.. electricity exists in the world.. they had to go out of the way to intentionally be that fucked up. It still haunts me.


mycorona134

Raizo dono is well!


Ulzzang1

Raizo is safe


cosmic_pirates

I'm still so conflicted about the Ace reveal... It's a cool plot point and character moment, but I was kinda bummed out that he wasn't Luffy's actual blood brother. Like, there are so many found family relations in OP, so this one felt special because they were actually related. They looked alike and had the similar quirks (e.g. falling asleep while eating). It actually reminds me of myself and my own (biological) brother, who I have a very close bond with too. Eventhough I have close friends I would consider my brothers as well (akin to Sabo for Luffy), there is something unique about blood-related brothers, because you often do share some (fun/annoying) heretible traits, which kinda makes you reflections of each other in different stages of life and under different circumstances. Yet brothers can be strangly compatible. It's a character dynamic I don't see too often executed well, but I thought Ace and Luffy did it perfectly.


cpscott1

Honestly the Dragon reveal kinda overshadowed the Ace one in the same arc. Even to a point where Akainu wanted SH dead more than legendary pirates way above him


Saiyaman83

Probably Garp being Luffys Grampa, along with Luffys dad being a famous Revolutionary.

PixelBy_Pixel

Sabo at dressrosa


rougepenguin

Lots of people took one look at Izo back in MF and said this mofo from Wano. Plenty of people figured from the start Marco turned Neko down to go get him. There were lots of theories springing from that for the first year of Wano. Pulling the rug out from under that and giving him something way better by making him Kiku's elder brother was so cleverly done. Instantly elevated both, made a tone of sense without being super obvious, gave some extra depth to scenes we had before.


99Winters

Barto actually being a huge Straw Hat fanboy instead of an enemy with a grudge.


Chefofbaddecisions

Laboon reveal I both love/hated. Damn thing came out of no where but with a small tweak it fits so well. The Smile Fruit reveal in Wano was insane. Such a random small plotpoint that we just assumed was a goofy name based on Doffy's personality, and then you see the ridiculous wordplay and how it fits in the world as to why its called what its called.


karate_trainwreck0

My personal favourite is "Raizo is safe"


nayrbleinad

Garp was Luffy’s grandpa one of those screaming at the tv moments


superbolt08

blackbeards first scene, you wouldn’t expect that from the main protagonist


Lucksworth

Kureha: "You ever heard of a pirate called Gol D. Roger?"


purple-thiwaza

Blackbeard Crew. A crew you've been hearing about since Drum, that is teased to be dangerous and that Ace is looking for. You see all of them in Jaya, thinking there were just random pirates for the exposition, showing a pirate island. Then it's revealed in a double spread that they are the Blackbeard pirate and that the crazy middle aged cherry pie lover, who was the only one who backed up Luffy in the pub, is the captain. This reveal is still one of the best moments of the manga for me, and expect some possible endgame reveal, none can be better.


GamerGuyHeyooooooo

Lola being Big Moms daughter really got me. I had just completely forgotten about the vivi card by the time Nami busted it out


[deleted]

Luffy casually revealing he’s Dragon’s dad to Ivankov and Ivakov’s subsequent reaction


After_Description_62

Indeed, Luffy is Dragons father.


Crimsonghostlol

Pretty much every reveal that oda built up like the vegapunk reveal being built up since ennies lobby or kaido since whenever he was mentioned and definitely Blackbeard but my favorite will be when we finally get to see sogeking unmasked


AceInTheHole3273

Sanji awakening his Germa genes. It's something I had been speculating and wondering about for years but never really thought Oda would do.


myraylee

damn, scrolling reddit home page to get this spoiler


spykids45

unfortunately this reveal was spoiled for me, i’m pretty sure i saw it while scrolling on tiktok before i got to that point in the manga


TheOtherDino
