Did he gain the ability to see through disguises when his observation haki was upgraded?
Dip Ateer
2025-05-14 18:13:22 +0000 UTCShe doesn't read patreon comments as often as she used to, since the incident where a bunch of people in the patreon comments debatelorded her on her feelings about a character from Apothecary Diaries Season 1, using information from the newest episode that had only been out for a couple hours (she hadn't watched it yet) that spoiled one of the biggest twists/plot points of the entire season.

2025-02-25 16:10:17 +0000 UTCThe fuck? Why did you think he died? He was saying he is looking forward to fighting him again lol wut

2025-02-25 10:38:27 +0000 UTCi love your reactions, hell thats why i'm here, but I'm guessing that you don't read comments for youtube. because it's real shitty to not atleast check comments for people who pay you on here. and i honestly don't take you as that kinda person. i feel you respect the people on here that make the effort to support you <3

2025-02-22 23:46:11 +0000 UTCThat's what I say about Cesar Luffy didn't need Gear 4 for him and to be honest saying that Luffy had the whole Hody Jones fight and aftermath plan its a little to much, it really seem a kind of in the moment thing (destroying Noah).
Daniel Hyena
2025-02-16 11:33:47 +0000 UTC50:21 so, like, it's almost like having an anthropomorphic persona helps in having a distinguished silhouette from other anime human designs for all these same-face anime series...that's just what i get out from luffy XD
Yagi di Hoshi
2025-02-15 23:23:57 +0000 UTCThat's exactly right, Alicia !! Indeed, the incarnation of Fishman Island that you had watched had stretched out Hordy vs Luffy for the sake of padding - to which, in this version, Hordy appeared to have the "upper hand" against Luffy at times...when that bit was, in actually, completely non-canon🙃🙃🙃
Yagi di Hoshi
2025-02-15 22:26:30 +0000 UTCI wasn't theorizing when I said that Luffy isn't stupid. There's a difference between being uneducated and disinterested in learning, and being stupid. He's not a genius, certainly, but he's not stupid either. He's goofy and casual, but he also knows when to be serious, and how to apply himself.
Moku
2025-02-15 21:53:34 +0000 UTCI think it's more so that ceasar was too weak for 4th gear to be necessary, and he couldn't use 4th gear for hordy because he was going to need his haki to destroy the Noah after beating him.
Grandmasta
2025-02-15 21:29:39 +0000 UTCA fun theory that is interesting to think about given everything Luffy has done regarding people he respects (or doesn't) but, lets be real, hes just stupid. Emotional intelligence doesn't help you see through disguises, thats just regular intelligence, and Luffy is not the type of person to put up a front for anyone. Hes shown genuine surprise whenever someones disguise is revealed, and even when he was severely beaten by Lucci and definitely too tired to keep up the facade, he was still surprised 'Usopp showed up'. His stupidity is part of his charm, his whole schtick is freedom, including being free from thinking a lot lol

2025-02-15 20:05:09 +0000 UTCHehe Alicia Snake Man reveal for year of the snake is poetic
Rej
2025-02-15 18:28:05 +0000 UTCBruh it was just a bit of a joke. I wasn't being serious.
Wil DeYoung
2025-02-15 08:31:41 +0000 UTC....or, hear me out. Luffy has _always_ been able tell when people are in disguise. He's one of, if not the most emotionally intelligent people in the series, and he's exceptionally good at reading people. He just has a sense of humor, and he's very casual by default, so he just plays along to let the people who are hiding their identities - read, Usopp pretending to be Sogeking, Foxy pretending to be Foxie, Caesar pretending to be whatshisface, and so on - have their moments of security. But right now, he's just too tired to give a shit, so he didn't bother with the facade for Pekoms. To note, Luffy isn't stupid, he's just uneducated and extremely casual, and he tends to wear his heart on his sleeve, at least for his surface emotions. He's not driven by a desire for knowledge, and he trusts his crew to know what's happening, and if it's important enough, he trusts them to fill him in and to know what to do about it. He's actually quite crafty and intelligent when he applies himself. For example, he literally just taught himself to see into the future by sheer force of will, while being beaten to death.

Nicholas Reed
2025-02-15 04:36:43 +0000 UTCI completely agree with you but not clear if the "seeing into the future" in beating Big Mom is literal or not so incase it is not I just have to get it out my dumb ass head,🤓🤓 um actually Katakuri didn't literary see Luffy beating Big Mom, he just told Luffy that his ambition is bigger than himself and he would be happy to see Luffy again. 🤓🤓
Daniel Hyena
2025-02-15 04:07:46 +0000 UTCI thought it was clear that I was referring post time skip, that why I specify Cesar Clown and Houdy Jones and specially pointing a in story moment after time skip with Zorro saying that he needs to take thing seriously and lock in because they are in the New World. None of the Straw Hats fought seriously in Fishmen Island.

2025-02-15 02:14:50 +0000 UTCLuffy leveled up his observation haki so much he can finally see through poor disguises truly goated character growth

2025-02-15 00:18:02 +0000 UTCcmon luffy had serious fights, did we forget about lucci fight ? even the guy with horns
Froze
2025-02-14 23:48:58 +0000 UTCX of doubt. I think its was more the opposite, he had trouble seeing becuse he was so beat up so he just relied on familiar instinct and got the right name. But ok some observation Haki was likely involved lol
One G. O A. T. One Dream
2025-02-14 20:51:10 +0000 UTCLuffy only started taking fights seriously after Zorro admonish him for being taken down by Cesar and almost dying to Houdy in fishman island.
Daniel Hyena
2025-02-14 19:17:47 +0000 UTCFirst time commenter. Alicia's YAAASS screams always match the hype.

Edward French
2025-02-14 18:35:59 +0000 UTC43:50 - naruto fans went through a lot. being the first of the big 3 to enter "complete shit tier anime" was the same energy as going to school as a sega / sonic fan down the line and watching mario games just get better n better while your franchise and IP withered away into turbo garbage. they been through a lot, they allowed to have a few screws missing.

2025-02-14 18:06:57 +0000 UTC42:10 I was literally thinking the same thing :D It's like when Naruto was crawling towards Gaara in OG Naruto
GyufaMC
2025-02-14 15:52:02 +0000 UTCI was not comfortable saying Luffy had won that fight... UNTIL Katakuri acknowledged him (especially "seeing into the future" in beating Big Mom) and THEN fell onto his back. Up until that point I saw it as Katakuri was last man standing (and I don't care if it was just Luffy recovering after fourth gear expired - he couldn't continue the fight in that moment), so to me in that moment was Katakuri won the fight but Luffy won the war because he couldn't stop his escape... but that last part changed everything in my mind.
jdoggivjc
2025-02-14 14:59:21 +0000 UTCyup, the only reason why those two could even remotely stand up to Luffy was because Caesar could just suffocate him from a distance and Hody was fighting underwater
Vokiman
2025-02-14 12:49:05 +0000 UTCLuffy saw through the disguise because he finally levelled up his observation Haki
Wil DeYoung
2025-02-14 10:08:16 +0000 UTCCant wait for Alicia to get to the Wano and later animation quality to see how far a weekly show truly can push it
Sebastian
2025-02-14 09:46:12 +0000 UTCPersonally I think that instead of yelling "King Cobra", Luffy should instead have called the move "Vivis Dad!"
Ebofa
2025-02-14 06:35:52 +0000 UTCSanji ONLY flashed back on the good things about Pudding. It's consistent to his character to only think the very best of all the women in his life. The rest is water under the bridge. He's always been this way.
Timmetry
2025-02-14 05:10:57 +0000 UTCOda knows just how many major side characters deaths to sneak in for one to feel worried about all other side characters.
Speed1247
2025-02-14 04:10:03 +0000 UTCI'm sure it's never going to be proven, but I'm sure Mystoms is Sogeking's secret side kick.
Seraphem
2025-02-14 03:30:53 +0000 UTCI definitely think if Flampe hadnt been an issue, then Luffy would have lost to Katakuri.
Simulacrae
2025-02-14 03:14:44 +0000 UTCi had just realized an episode before that you can tell katakuri was gradually becoming exhausted and weaker bc the donuts he creates when using power mochi were starting to look sloppy and not like perfect circles from the start of the fight. nice little detail
Santi
2025-02-14 02:02:08 +0000 UTCshit went so crazy alicia thinking that man died is hilarious but he also said the coolest godamn thing i honestly thought he died for a moment lol
james blaire
2025-02-14 01:44:38 +0000 UTCluffy mentioned in dressrosa that he developed gear 4 to help match the giant animals on the island he was trianing at. to be honest hody and Caesar weren't exactly strong enough to need gear 4, they could be tricky or dangerous, but that's it compared to doffy and katakuri who needed the next step in his strength to overcome
bloodyshadow1
2025-02-14 01:30:16 +0000 UTCThere is a reason Katakuri, despite being an atagonist for Luffy, is such a loved charascter. the respect for Luffy he shows is crazy. Its one of the most meaningful fights so far. Not only does Luffy develop as a fighter, as a person. But so does Katakuri. Isntead of being the same as when he started the fight, like many other villains or antagonists can be like.
MeatBeater9000
2025-02-14 00:52:51 +0000 UTCSo funny watching Alicia panik at katakuri falling down when Luffy has literally never in his life killed anyone and then she thinks he would kill the man he most respects out of his enemies so far

2025-02-13 22:33:12 +0000 UTCOf course he saw through Mystoms disguise, he just spent hours training his Observation Haki. Joke's aside I missed that on my first watch, thanks for noticing that detail.

2025-02-13 20:47:31 +0000 UTCI mean I’m still sucked in even after almost 150 episodes. I’m usually bad at binging long shows, even short shows. The fact I’m still holding out and especially Alicia is, it’s just so cool
Gavin Bickel
2025-02-13 20:20:50 +0000 UTCDamn, after this rewatch of the Katakuri fight, I enjoyed it much more on the 2nd time while watching your reactions. The first time just felt so drawn out to me, but now I see it more as a test of endurance on both sides of the fight.

Ben Yokes
2025-02-13 19:05:46 +0000 UTCIve heard some people take it as a plothole that Luffy doesnt use Gear 4 before Dressrosa, but I think the timelimit alone being way too much of a risk to just use it whenever explains it pretty well. Both Hordy and Ceasar are characters that didnt push Luffy nearly enough for it to be considered
Lucas_Oreki
2025-02-13 19:01:13 +0000 UTCIMO Luffy figuring out it was Pekoms right away is probably due to his increase in Observation Haki. Luffy was able to point out Katakuri's "voice" from inside his mochi temple. While Luffy can't use Armament and Conqueror's Haki after using gear 4 it seems the same isn't true for Observation.
Alicia Barkley
2025-02-13 18:56:28 +0000 UTCI love your reactions but damn it I wish I was further ahead in One Piece so I could watch these reactions XD I haven’t made it to 150 yet!

2025-02-13 16:52:14 +0000 UTCKatakuri is 48 years old
Cole Savoie
2025-02-13 16:51:30 +0000 UTC44:20 To me, Katakuri’s words and his last action are his acknowledgment of Luffy’s determination and his respect for the man that beat him. He wouldn’t have done that for anyone else.
YubarReingok
2025-02-13 16:04:57 +0000 UTCLuffy has never once said words like "I'll kill you" since the beginning despite how despicable his opponents are. And I don't even think that he is aware of alway saying that, and also never come to his mind so this is much more than a conviction. So I never have feeling of heaviness when luffy fight. This is what I really like about One Piece.

Kamono
2025-02-13 15:17:51 +0000 UTCBut he was still faster than Luffy tho. But that leaves him with little room to predict
Kamono
2025-02-13 15:15:09 +0000 UTCAt long last we can discuss how gear 4th pays respect/references three of luffy's previous non-haki forms. Tank man equaling water Luffy from alabaster Bounceman referencing nightmare Luffy from thriller bark Snake man referencing both champion Luffy from impel down and Afro Luffy from the Foxy fights.
Calvin
2025-02-13 14:58:37 +0000 UTCI've literally never seen ANYONE think that. it really confused me. I thought it was clear at this point that Luffy doesn't really kill.
Kim Pine
2025-02-13 14:58:15 +0000 UTCBounce man is centered around Power and durability, but Snake man is built for Pure SPEED. Even if Katakuri can see slightly into the future, it’s useless if his opponent is Faster than he is.
Chris White
2025-02-13 14:39:05 +0000 UTCYaaaaay I was hoping you'd binge the rest of the fight. Imagine having to watch this fight over 20 weeks D: pacing feels a bit better watching it all at once but it still drags at times
Cvillain626
2025-02-13 14:31:09 +0000 UTCI also think people underestimate the time limit, cooldown and fight space needed for gear 4, in Luffys mind during the initial fight against Hody he probably didnt think it was worth it to risk the cooldown if the enemy survives, and then the next part of the fight he was stuck in a bubble, like just imagining Luffy trying to go G4 in a bubble at the bottom of the ocean sounds dumb enough that I can believe even Luffy thought it was a bad idea
Polarbear Bowl
2025-02-13 13:57:06 +0000 UTCI never even thought that scene of Katakuri falling could be seen as him dying O_o I, and most reactions so far, see it as Katakuri showing Luffy enough respect to actually lower himself and fall on his back...
V_VMat
2025-02-13 13:51:24 +0000 UTCAlicia is 99.9% of the time on fucking point for understanding Luffy's character and what he's going to say or do next. I have to ask, when has Luffy ever killed an opponent? 🤣 Of course he didn't kill Katakuri 🤣🤣
SomeoneElse
2025-02-13 13:47:37 +0000 UTCThe fact Luffy knows its Pekoms but never knew about Sogeking is Oda's best plot device, hands down.

2025-02-13 11:37:40 +0000 UTC"You're seeing quite far into the future" from a guy with futuresight is mad respect.
Azel !!
2025-02-13 11:03:02 +0000 UTCGot to remember, before Dressrosa, Luffy didn't really fight anything physically threatening. Hordy was strong, but Luffy just began beating the boat and Hordy went down along with it like fodder. Caesar was weak, his only real threatening part removing air and the cloud of poison chasing them. 'Mingo was the first real opponent he had to go all out against.
I'm following way too many nsfw accounts to use a name here
2025-02-13 10:52:49 +0000 UTCYou could say Snakeman is the Gear 2nd version of Gear 4th, whereas Tankman is the Gear 3rd version of Gear 4th. Interestingly, in Snakeman, Luffy resembles his father more.
UltramanUltimo
2025-02-13 10:10:46 +0000 UTCI always saw Luffy seeing through disguises as a side effect of his observation haki training in this arc.
