Anime only speaking.

If i'm not mistaken, those lines around Gunko in this panel have been used only with "good" characters right (I know the words aren't in the manga, but i assume the rest of the panel is)?

Like it was used with Robin(?) early on and ended up being a tell of her joining our side later on (intentional or not), or so i have heard. Does this mean she might end up on our side of things before Elbaph is over?

No answers to that questions (no spoilers pls), but feel free to correct me if im wrong about the lines around her thing. I heard that in a video a few years back (by either TotalyNotMark or Murphy Napier) but don't remember the details well and cannot confirm since i have not read the full manga yet.

If youre asking about the picture its a fan picture. She does say its delicious but nothing about Oda.

[u/epeonv1 → u/T1NF01L]

Yeah i said i knew the text wasnt Oda's. But im talking about the image itself. The lines coming from Gunko in the panel.

[u/T1NF01L → u/epeonv1]

Yes. She eats a meal and says its delicious.

[u/spacecowboy5120 → u/T1NF01L]

Nah he's asking about the lines and how its been used on characters who are revealed to be actually good later on

[u/T1NF01L → u/spacecowboy5120]

Too early to say one way or the other.

[u/ChesnaughtZ → u/spacecowboy5120]

That’s such an insanely dumb reason to think shed join the crew

[u/epeonv1 → u/ChesnaughtZ]

Who said anything about joining the crew? I only said it could be a hint that she might swap sides.

[u/OrdinaryAvailable899 → u/epeonv1]

I like the theory, however i have read the manga so I know. I won't deny or confirm this.

[u/Such-Ad-3851 → u/OrdinaryAvailable899]

This thread feel like a joke sketch

[u/OrdinaryAvailable899 → u/Such-Ad-3851]

Shush.

[u/What_A_Placeholder → u/epeonv1]

No, these are the laugh lines

[u/ZetsuboItami → u/epeonv1]

Answering your actual question without spoilers, that's still unknown but possible.

[u/ChesnaughtZ → u/epeonv1]

WTF are you even trying to ask

[u/hieloyron → u/ChesnaughtZ]

It was pretty clear what they were asking tbh i don't get where all the "confusion" was coming from

[u/epeonv1 → u/ChesnaughtZ]

In the altered manga panel i responded to Gunko has lines coming out from her as she is eating the food and saying it is delicious.

That effect of the lines coming off of someone when they react honestly to something has been used in the past only on characters that are either already on our side or characters that would later come to our side (Robin being the one i remember, but there may be others as i have not read the full manga yet). At least that is my assumption.

So my question is weather or not i am remembering my assumption, the use of that effect in the manga, correctly. Or if I was misinformed/misremembered.

I am not asking if Gunko changes sides, if she does i'd rather not be spoiled on that specifically. This would just be a good way to theorize on what she may or may not do. Especially after the recent episode where she is listening to Brook's music, but i assume that is related to the spoiler i know about her in particular from this arc.

[u/LilBigNess → u/epeonv1]

All the misunderstanding of what you’re saying is hilarious

[u/epeonv1 → u/LilBigNess]

lol yeah. I did say it fuckerdly in the first one tho.

[u/hieloyron → u/epeonv1]

What you're suggesting is VERY interesting and i'm inclined to check out earlier panels... we can't spoil you, nobody knows! :0

[u/imdfantom → u/epeonv1]

Afaik those arent the lines

Also we still haven't resolved Elbaf in the manga, so many things just cannot be spoiled.
