That was pretty epic. FINALLY ODA EXPLAINS HAKI. It was pretty much exactly as what most people thought but it was nice to have the smaller details explained. Now a 4 week break which will probably result in a 2 year time skip...It was a really nice way to start the break though: "Straw hat luffy is going on holiday..." Just shows how planned this break is instead of being like "Now I will teach you haki!" WAIT A 4 WEEK BREAK? Anyways, this is going to be a painful 4 weeks.

This is exactly why I love Oda, everything always feels planned out in some huge bigger scheme of things. Unlike some other Mangas which I won't name that feel like they pull random shit out of their ass every week.

well it allows luffy and his crew to be powerful in a short amount of time doing a time skip vs having something stupid like a hyper bolic time chamber or the zone inbetween the thing bleach just did haha. So it doesn't make us feel like they cheated, it also allows for some flashbacks here and there as fillers to chapters vs just random shit.

This whole Haki concept is incredible. Oda's had this entire thing planned since the beginning, because one of the first events we see is Shanks using Haki on the sea monster, yet he can wait 600 chapters to explain it in detail. It also explains Ennel's "Mantra" something that I thought was a little out there, but it's cool now that we know it's also Haki.

So basically everyone has Haki, but only a few can have their "intimidation" Haki awaken, which also can't be strengthened by training ?

I hope there will be more explanations to it, i wished Haoshou°§$%& would be more rare and epic. but what ever...

I hope the other crew members can also learn some haki at least, I don't want Luffy to be TOO far above his fellow crew mates. Also I wonder if they'll change in appearance much I want them too but I also don't want them too ^^

Oda's really good about balancing these kinds of things out.. I think of haki as more of a way to fight logias mostly, they aren't really direct power ups per-say. The crew will keep their current balance (or shrink the gap a bit) and for the most part everyone will get powered up but not to much (or everyone will get powered up a lot lol).

On one hand it is logical that Luffy and crew would need a time skip with how all the enemies have been portrayed. On the other hand even though Luffy and his crew will be getting stronger there is still a chance he will leave them behind, I mean Luffy was always stronger than some of his crew like Nami, Chopper and Ussop, but Haki seems pretty strong. I don't think I'll have to worry about it being just about the main chracter's godliness because unlike DBZ and Bleach, One Piece has the central idea of a pirate crew and friendship so they shouldn't be left behind.

The 4 week break is harsh but it will make it seem more like a time skip actually which is goof for the fans overall I suppose.

Wonder how I'm going to take this time skip. Don't really follow Naruto, but some people really didn't like the time skip for a reason......but it's Oda so I have faith.

I found "auras" or power levels really stupid at first because of DBZ (the later parts), but HxH really made me appreciate it. Especially once they get to the technicalities and how everyone can do different things with it. 4 weeks though damn........

Their power gaps have to be approximately the same as Blackbeard's crew power gaps.... because they'll be the final bosses for each of their crew.

So it's likely that they'll all be fairly strong but obviously Luffy may have to be a tier or two above if he's going to take on Blackbeard (2 DFs) by himself

I am pretty sure blackbeard is gonna have quite a few more than 2 DF by the final confrontation. There's no limit.
