I feel like reading Egghead is slowly making me realize that Oda is saving the actual peak of One Piece for last cause every chapter is a banger after banger and we're only at the beginning of the end
When it was clear that Egghead would be next, I thought it would not be that long of an ark. A few big reveals and on to the next island...boy, am I glad I was wrong about that. This ark is amazing.

There has not been a single dull moment in this arc after Vegapunk got introduced, whether it's on the island or off it. My favorite parts were actually some of the cutaways, specifically Kuma's flashback and the Sword vs Blackbeard Pirates fight, though the climactic battle is climbing upwards on the list. That is some peak and I am loving every second

Kuma's flashback, man... peak. It's peak. Nuff said.

Took a break from Mother 1 and started Earthbound/Mother 2.

Already made It to Twoson and on my way to rescue Paula.

If I liked Mother 1's world, then It was obvious I would love Mother 2's even more. There's a lot of colour, better spritework and the battles are less frustrating and more enjoyable. The writing has also improved a lot obviously.

It is crazy to me how it's far and away THE BEST backstory in a series that's known for having some of the best backstories in fiction, like I'm sorry but it's not even a contest. Oda is cooking up a whole ass buffet with the final saga

Better yet, have a Pokemon Trainer character but the trainer themself fights.
They should have done this for smash 4. Would have been funny as hell.

Give them the fishing rod grab, they can throw rocks as projectiles, they get to use hm replacements tools as weapons, Recovery would be the og flying animation.

A lot of fun potential there. After legends Arceus where the trainer physically scrapes against pokemon, it be the perfect opportunity.

Caught a shiny Hisuian Voltorb in Scarlet!
Just heads up for anyone. Both Voltorb types and Foongus have a ~0.5% to be shiny during the mass outbreaks.

That percent still increases with the regular methods of increasing shiny chances but at that percent, you can easily get multiple of each shiny in less than an hour.

Fortnite collab potential leak:

Avatar the Last Airbender

Would be the next season’s mini event with Aang as the premium award and Appa as a Glider

Fortnite bout to have the first Avatar vs Avatar battle if the James Cameron one gets in.

Backbling?

Nah that better be a whole ass Collab. No excuse when they have the super hero forms to make work as skins.
SpongeBob can work better as a backbling considering that there are many backpacks shaped as the titular character irl.

Sure but the super hero skins perfectly scale for a model to be used in game and would make the guns make a little more sense.

Even then, there’s been great concepts for making the normal designs work too. It would be big money if the actually characters were playable.

You know they would not pass on putting handsome squidward in.

Handsome Squidward would make a lot of sense, specially in a post-buff Peter Griffin world.

Tilted Towers, Risky Reels, Pleasant Park, Salty Springs.

Long ago the four Fortnite nations lived in harmony.

But everything change when Dwayne the Rock Foundation attacked.

Only the Avatar, master of all four weapon styles could save us.

But when we needed him most he vanished….

100 years passed and my brother Jonsey and I found the new Avatar, an AiR specialist named Aang.

He’s got a lot to learn, but I believe he can save the Fortnite island!

Would rather do the griddy and die as Toph but ok.
The way the mini event collab works is one character is part of the pass (but not exclusive to the pass as both Darth Maul (and some Clone Troopers) and Yuji Itadori were sold in the shop later) while more are added to the shop (it happened with Star Wars, Jujutsu Kaisen, and TMNT) so I think Toph will eventually make it.

Plus we already have the perfect emote for her:

I think I'm getting sick and dizzy from thinking about Mother 1 and 2 non-stop.

My head hurts, I feel nauseous, and I'm constantly fighting my brain to stop myself from thinking about the songs from the games and what I need to do next in them.

I really wanna put them on hold for at least five days... But idk, I fear if I do so I may get too carried away and forget to finish both. The last time a Game made me feel this way was with Yakuza:Like A Dragon weirdly enough.

just realized that Netflix did the weird realistic symbols on Aang’s arrows thing that the movie did…not really needed

also the pacing for the show continues to be insane

More lore regarding a shared universe between the Marvel Cinematic Universe/DC Extended Universe/MonsterVerse.

-The Titans origins originated from the Celestial Tiamut from the Earth's core with the cosmic energy mutating small creatures into giant monsters.
-The Eternals would take part in the ancient war of Earth against Darkseid and Steppenwolf.
-The Eternals are aware of the Titans as well. Ikaris proposed killing them since they would be affecting the Earth's population and preventing the Emergence from progressing. However, Ajak talked him out of it as they observed Godzilla's species preserving the balance of nature, keeping the population steadying, keeping the other Titans at bay, and hunting/killing giant Deviants as well.
-The Eternals once met with Mothra, who Sersi and Sprite formed a close bond with.
-Godzilla has a mixed relationship with the Eternals. While he approves them for keeping the Earth safe, he doesn't trust them due to their "unnatural" nature due to being from space, which is the same with Ghidorah.
-Talokan would be considered one of the Kingdoms of Atlantis. Ocean Master would later try to recruit Namor, but decides not to as he was warned by the other rulers that Namor is more dangerous than Ocean Master himself.
-Wonder Woman and the original Shazam took part in imprisoning Ammit.
-SHIELD and Nick Fury have known about the existence of Titans and have kept close tabs on them.
-Wakanda is aware of the existence of Atlantis but their ancestors have made a treaty with each other in not interfering. After the events of Aquaman, both T'Challa and Arthur meet in secret to discuss on how to unite their kingdoms together and reveal their secret to the world. While Arthur respects T'Challa, he wants to keep Atlantis a secret until the time is right.
-Alongside SHIELD, STAR Labs and Monarch were both infiltrated by HYDRA Agents who sought their resources such as the technology created from the Motherbox as well as retrieving Titan DNA to create clones.
-After the Civil War, Amanda Waller proposed Task Force X to the government, in which Everett Ross was among those who approved it while William Stenz opposed it. Abomination and Baron Zemo were among the possible candidates for Task Force X.
-Task Force X and Monarch weren't affected by the Sokovia Accords due to their connections with the government.
-Karathen is revealed to be one of the lost Titans of Earth.
-At the Senate hearing, alongside Serizawa, Nick Fury and Calvin Swanwick (Martian Manhunter) are among those who defended the Titans while Thaddeus Ross and Amanda Waller voiced against them.
-By the end of Infinity War and during the events of Endgame. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Lois Lane, Martian Manhunter, Joker, Lex Luthor, Black Mask, Victor Zsasz, Black Canary, Renee Montoya, Huntress, Cassandra Cain, Bruce the Hyena, Bloodsport, Harley Quinn, Rick Flagg, King Shark, Ratcatcher 2 and Sebastian, Polka-Dot Man, Captain Boomerang, Savant, Javelin, Blackguard, Mongal, T.D.K., Weasel, Thinker, Shazam, Amanda Waller, Emilia Harcourt, John Economos, Adebayo Waller, Clemson Murn/Ik Nobe Llok, Goff/Sophie Song/Eek Stack Ik Ik, Casper Locke, Larry Fitzgibbon, James Gordon, Mera, Starro, Peacemaker, White Dragon, Hawkman, Doctor Fate, Cyclone, Atom Smasher, Blue Beetle and the Reyes family, Victoria and Jenny Kord, Carapax, Madison Russell, Mark Russell, Illene Chen, Houston Brooks, Sam Coleman, Nathan Lind, Illene Andrews, Jia, Josh Valentine, Bernie Hayes, Walter and Maia Simmons, Ren Serizawa, Alan Jonah, Godzilla, Kong, and half of the known titans would be amongst the survivors of The Blip.
-Flash, Cyborg, Aquaman, Perry White, Martha Kent, Deadshot, Deathstroke, Katana, Killer Croc, Billy's foster parents and siblings, Ling Chen, Rick Stanton, Diane Foster, Jackson Barnes, Anthony Martinez, Lauren Griffin, Rodan, and other half of the known titans and others were amongst the victims of The Blip.
-During the events of Endgame, due to Thanos' actions, Godzilla had a hard time in trying to keep balance of the Earth with half of the titans running loose. The Corto Maltese government took advantage of this by continuing their experiments with Project Starfish and the Intergang were able to operate and have full control over Kahndaq. Because of Thanos, many crime organizations in Gotham have either been dismantled due to the disappearance of the leaders or have been absorbed into the Black Mask Crime Organization. Jaime's family and his community go through financial struggles from Kord Industries due to the effects of the Blip. Due to the world powers struggling, they helped fund Apex Cybernetics to stabilize their economy as well as unknowingly helping Walter process with his Mechagodzilla experiment.
-Kingpin met with Joker and Black Mask during the Blip where the 2 made mutual agreements in trading resources. However, this agreement was broken due to Black Mask's death.
-Similar to Scott Lang, Black Adam wasn't affected by The Blip since he was currently imprisoned. Same for Mothra as she remained in her egg. As well as Khaji-Da due to being non-organic.
-Due to the effects of the Blip, the butterflies decided to start their invasion by infecting powerful humans.
-After Doctor Fate's death, Hawkman gives the Helmet of Fate to Kamar-Taj for safe keeping so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands.
-The League of Avengers along with Rocket and Nebula goes into the time heist to find the Infinity Stones. With Iron Man's and Batman's technology, they create a black and red infinity gauntlet. Hulk still snaps his fingers which brings every living being back. During the final battle with Thanos, the Justice Society, Black Adam, Godzilla, and the other Titans arrive to join in the fight.
-Due to the effects of the Emergence and the Deviants, Godzilla would ally with the Eternals in hunting down and killing the Deviants as well as stopping the Emergence from happening.
-Victoria Kord and Walter Simmons are among the many people who also had a hatred towards Tony Stark and are joyful about his death.
-After the events of Blue Beetle, Damage Control tried to apprehend him but was forced to back down due to public support.
-After Endgame, Apex Cybernetics not only seeks to eliminate Titans but also superpowered individuals as well. After the events of GvK, Damage Control cleaned up the damage and Kord Industries acquired their resources for their OMAC.
-Godzilla would grow hostile towards the Hex that Wanda made. Due to being composed of cosmic radiation from the celestial, Godzilla and the other Titans would be immune to the Hex's effects. However, once Wanda leaves Westview, Godzilla will leave as well.
-Wanting to reconnect with his daughter, Mark Russell resigns his position as leader of Monarch and Bruce Banner becomes the next head of Monarch due to his knowledge of Nuclear Physics.
-Both the Great Protector and Dweller-in-Darkness are revealed to be Titans who stumbled upon Ta Lo.
-Ms. Marvel would not only be a Captain Marvel fan but also a Wonder Woman and Mothra fan as well.
-Riri Williams is a huge fan of both Iron Man and Cyborg which influenced her to create her own enhanced suits.
-Thor recruits Wonder Woman and the Shazam family to help them stop Gorr the God Butcher. They arrive at Omnipotence City where Wonder Woman exposes the Greek Gods being the Roman counterparts with Zeus' real identity revealed to be Jupiter. After the mission, Thor gives Shazam the Thunderbolt.
-Wonder Woman then encounters Moon Knight where she sees and speaks with Khonshu.
-When Doctor Strange and America Chavez arrive in Earth-838, they meet the Illuminati which not only consists of Captain Carter, Blackbolt, Captain Marvel (Maria Rambeau), and Mister Fantastic but also consists of Christian Bale's Batman and Brandon Routh's Superman.
-Titanus Sehkmet, Behemoth, and Mokele-Mbembe reside in Wakanda and telepathically bond with T'Challa before his death. Meanwhile, Titanus Na Kika, Tiamat, and Amhuluk reside in the depths of the ocean where they bond with Namor.
-Same with Wakanda, the U.N. held a conference on whether the Titans should be contained or killed. Director Fontaine would state that the Titan's radiation helps balance the ecosystem of the planet and propose a solution where they can imprison the Titans and drain this energy they embody to help sustain the ecosystem, thus having them alive, but tortured.
-After Shuri takes the heart-shaped herb and becomes the next Black Panther, she communicates with Sehkmet, Behemoth, and Mokele-Mbembe for the first time and participates in the battle against Namor by battling against Na Kika, Tiamat, and Amhuluk.
-After the alliance with Talokan, Aquaman visits Shuri on the same beach where she meets her nephew, T'Challa II, and warns her about her deal with Namor.
-Due to the Secret Invasion, Superman was affected by the Anti-Alien Act and was forced into hiding.
-After the events of the Marvels, Monica Rambeau not only meets Binary and Beast but also meets Michael Keaton's Batman and Sasha Calle's Supergirl.
-After the events of Lost Kingdom, Atlantis revealed its existence to the world by joining alliances with the UN and Wakanda.
-Ms. Marvel's Quantum Bands and Shang-Chi's Ten Rings start behaving weirdly as they detect a signal from deep within Hollow Earth, signifying a war cry from ancient Titans known as the Skar King and Shimo.
