Given the way "cooking" is written in Japanese katakana (クッキング), its phonetic spelling in JP is typed as "kucking", so a lot of JP speakers often accidentally romanize it as "cocking", unaware of the correct Eng spelling
But nah man, gotta totally be GODA foreshadowing🗿

You can spot the Luffy megaposter on the Kuja castle lol

Some clarification on the translation of Hiyori's line in Chapter 1057 and how it's meant to refer to Orochi alone and not necessarily the whole clan
386
Witness making it out alive to get all those big bounty raises for the Straw Hats 😎

One Piece Chapter 1060's Shonen Jump cover HD!

Damn, that Straw Hat looks an awful lot like the shape of the sun 👀

About Yamato, the current translation consensus that most translators have recognized is that external sources (ie: manga narrator, vivre cards, merchandise) use female wording, while in-canon characters (ie: Luffy, SHs, Kaido, goons) use male wording (as desired by Yamato)

Matt also mentioned how Bonney being the daughter of Kuma, King of the Sorbet Kingdom, basically makes her the obligatory princess of the arc... guess old habits die hard 😅
391
I always said that whenever Vegapunk appears, it'll be the moment when we know that One Piece will be beginning to end. To actually see it happen just feels... bittersweet almost, but I'm ready for the adventure ahead
395
NEWS UPDATE: Oda mentions that 3 years is indeed his goal but also mentions in the interview that he recognizes he's been pretty off so far in the past, so he's not exactly sure how long it will take. Here's a translation of Oda's exact words courtesy of @WSJ_manga:

Good point to plug my theory that Kureha's "secret" she keeps teasing about behind her perennial youth and looking so young at age 141 is because the previous user of the Ope Ope no Mi, a certain "famous doctor", once gave his colleague Kureha the eternal youth surgery
397
Suddenly this scene makes much more sense
398
Notes in Oda's notebook mention that unlike Paramecia Awakenings, Zoan Awakenings bear a risk with them, seemingly being that the nature of the animal can end up consuming the user. Oda notes we can see this with the Impel Down jailers, who were consumed by their devil fruits

Might singlehandedly be one of the best panels Oda has ever drawn for me. I love this so much
