(SPOILERS until Ep196/Ch303/Skypiea Arc) What do you think about that Enel/Skypiea summary? What can you add or correct about it?

First of all:
What is a ”God“ in the view of Skypieans?

”God“ is just the monarchs (general highest) entitlement in Skypiea, who, after becoming it, lives in Gods Shrine.

That is further explained and criticised on Enel by Gan Fall (Ep180/Ch275, see first picture ad proof for that).

You seem to be able to enforce yourself onto the position (since Enel killed all henchmen of previous ”God“ Gan Fall and defeated him with ease) or become “God“ by vote and agreement of the sky people (since Gan Fall was declared “God“ again by the sky people after Enels defeat, but I need more info about how else to become a “God“).

(All following Spoiler only contain very minor information about OP but don’t effect the experience and don’t spoil anything relevant for the story or characters besides ”Mad Monk“ Urouge, who is only very little known or shown about or Enel in later Cover Stories)

We just don’t know much about the political systems or function of other sky societies but can assume that they are similar to Skypieas. Enels apparent origin from another sky island (Birka Ep182/Ch279), that lied in the southeast of Skypiea (was destroyed by him) and
gives us some information.


(Title/System probably inspired by Odas One Shot Manga ”God’s gift for the future“)

Only Enels lack of wings (instead 4Tomoe Drums attached to a ring on the wings usual spot) could hint on him as a ”fallen Angel“ (ripped out or lost wings) or another origin than the skies-perhaps the moon (or so called ”Endless Vearth“ by Enel) that he even travelled to,


Enels understanding and interpretation of ”God“ on the other hand is different. He seems to have been a ”normal“ Sky island citizen (which I don’t believe to be true, see the hints above), until he ate the Goro Goro no mi and got his DF abilities (in his case a Logia fruit, type lightning), which he knew of to be the strongest type of DF, especially against the Skypieans (which know nothing about DFs or users). (Probably) After that he developed the (psychological term) ”God complex“ and perceives himself as a allmighty, omnipresent, omniscient and thoroughly perfect being. He even at first denied that his powers couldn’t harm Luffy for multiple times(Ep182/Ch279, see picture pannels as proof), only to realise it on the THIRD try.
That proves his arrogance and lack of not perfect but existent knowledge about DFs or common sense (doesn’t know plastic x electricity but can build the Arc Maxim), that Nami, thereby any normal human, seems to know (Ep182/Ch279, see picture proof with Namis comment).
That further hints at Enels alienated origin with mix of knowledge about white sea (sky) and blue sea (OP planet surface) information.
Only the fight against Luffy proves that Enel is just another “normal“ Logia DF (that he can travel through most electricity conducting materials with) user, with outstanding observation Haki, but without any allmight, omniscience or omnipresence to it.

That’s it from my part, just don’t take most titles or roles in OP too seriously. Oda takes a lot of inspiration from real life architecture, culture, societies, the bible, other Mangaka, japanese films, FanArt, FanFiction, norse/greek mythology or japanese folklore but rarely copies these things into his world! Instead he creates new meaning and systems for them, which makes his worldbuilding abilities so incredibly intriguing and interesting!
Thanks for reading, pls correct or add missing parts/context or general information. I‘d like to hear your theories about Enels origin/goals,
how you can become a ”God“ in the sky islands, …

(Msg to the Mods: was that enough effort? XD)

For all who might be surprised:
I’m trying to create a theory about the meaning of
general Gods and the concept of Liberation in OP.

Since that for now will remain unanswered for a few years probably, I wanted to overlook what Oda build up for that in his most important ”foreshadowing Arc“ for that topic.

Have a great day and enjoy reading or adding new/missing information!✌🏽

They reanimated pretty much everything of pre time skip bro, I have seen both versions but I can’t find any platform with the old one anymore.
Crunchyroll uses the reanimated version, if I’m not completely wrong.
I watched the show twice (old and new) so I just preferred using the new look ✌🏽
