Just been thinking about how much I love Robin's Straw Hat initiation. Some of the Straw Hats took an entire arc to join, meanwhile Robin's just like "Hey my boss tried to kill me and I sorta got nowhere else to go. Can I crash with you guys?" and Luffy just goes "Oh for sure, bro"
i, like many others was extremely happy to see this image get circulated a few days ago:
however, according to twolettermo on TikTok, the letter one hundred and fifty fucking hollywood bozos signed in support of bisan's emmy nomination getting rescinded (absolutely disgusting) INCLUDED Marty Adelstein, the CEO & founder of tomorrow studios (the studio making one piece) HE IS ALSO AN EXECUTIVE PRODUCER FOR OPLA.
the video in question (if someone could save it and reblog with the video embedded i would appreciate it):
i may be new to the fandom, but i KNOW that one piece is about liberation and this isn't fucking it. so, as we approach the one year mark since isnotreal started its latest genocide against palestinians, please don't watch OPLA season 2. spend your time more appropriately.
and i suppose giving Adelstein shit for his moronic, disgusting decision via twitter wouldn't hurt.
OMG I AM EXCITED. After three days of casting announcements, I'm even more hyped!! (Well other than one shocking (non-casting related) surprise, which I am still not sure how I feel about yet.)
As for the cast...don't they look great?? Charithra was great in Bridgerton, and I totally see Miss Wednesday vibes from her! (In all her identities). I can't believe Sendhil is the right age to play Nefertari Cobra, since I remember him in Heroes, and he was great there! And I love the choices for Kureha and Hiriluk, even though I would have loved JLC for Kureha, Katey Segal seems like a great other option!

Everyone looks fantastic and I absolutely can't wait too see them all in action!
P.s. I think I'm missing 4 new cast faces. Dorry and Brogy were in that were previously revealed as cast. When I find the reddit/insta links, I'll add it here!
LERA'S LIL HAIR FLIP I LOVE HER ALREADY 😭💜 She looks so similar to Robin, it's just unreal💜
DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON JOE🐊💜 I wasn't really a fan of this casting when it was first rumored but damn it grew on me over time... needless to say, I'm sold😍
Anyways, another MENA erasure from roles of characters that are middle eastern and one of the producers of season 2 is an active Zionist that signed the petition trying to revoke Bisan's (the Palestinian journalist recording the g*nocide in Gaza) nomination in the Emmy's. This is another reminder to cancel your Netflix subscription, and if you want to watch OPLA season 2, just pirate it. It's more in the One Piece spirit as well.
i gotta say the official casting announcement of baroque works for opla s2 is majestic asf!!! streets are also saying that this week is gonna be so exciting for more opla s2 announcements omg can't wait for robin and vivi's actors for the live action like damn my palms are sweating
