Kureha is gonna be interesting to see young. I wonder if she looked like a hot babe.
Me? That was just a suggestion. Kureha is still alive even 109 years ago, when she was 32 years old, so it was something to speculate on.From where did u get that Kureha thing?
You bet she is, don‘t wanna be too rude but I mean (overly) old Kureha is still a butterface.Kureha is gonna be interesting to see young. I wonder if she looked like a hot babe.

IIRC @zetsu banned was the first one to mention that young Kureha might make an appearance during Harald‘s flashback.From where did u get that Kureha thing?

I make so many wild guessing predictions I may have lol. I'm a timeline nerd so whenever I see the narrator say "X Years Ago..." my first instinct is to fly over to a wiki timeline to see what was going on that number of years ago. There aren't a lot of characters we care about that were alive and active a hundred years ago- Kureha just happens to be on that list. Also Clover was born two years after this flashback, neat.IIRC @zetsu banned was the first one to mention that young Kureha might make an appearance during Harald‘s flashback.
That's a good catch. I suppose it's not unlikely that Harald could have endorsed her back in the day provided he got his cut.I make so many wild guessing predictions I may have lol.

Speaking of timeline shenanigans, lots of interesting stuff around this period, including this sequence of events:
127 years ago: Saul is born
113 years ago: Caramel had started her slaving operation
109 years ago: the Giant Pirate rampage
102 years ago: Dory and Brogy begin their duel on Little Garden
100 years ago: Caramel sets up the Sheeps House in Elbaf.
Incoming hot young Caramel at some point I suppose. She was born around the same time as Kureha lol. Also considering this timing... was Saul one of the children sold to the WG?????
Also at some point in this series of events, Morley is captured and creates Impel Down lv 5.5. So much interesting stuff could be weaved into this flashback
Oda's laying it on real thick but I still have no belief Harald was actually a Bad Guy. A rampaging pirate, sure, but child trafficking evil that sold out his country to what seems to be the literal devil? NahThat's a good catch. I suppose it's not unlikely that Harald could have endorsed her back in the day provided he got his cut.
I can't check now, but wasn't stated in Big Mom flashback that John Giant was the first?Considering this timing... was Saul one of the children sold to the WG????? Saul would be 27 by the time the Sheeps House opens up, very much still a kid for giants. It's possible he was the very first one sold, a giant who's also a D would definitely give Caramel all the good graces she could ever have with the WG. Anyways, incoming hot young Caramel at some point I suppose. She was born around the same time as Kureha lol.
If Harald is 45 years old 109 years ago, then he would have been born 154 years ago, which doesn't line up.I'm still thinking about whom activated Emeth 200 years ago and do the timeline match? If Emeth needed the Drums of Liberation to activate then someone had to had been Nika or somehow harness the Nika Devil Fruit power without eating it and I wonder if it was Harold? I feel like Harold wield the Nika Devil Fruit power as a Devil Fruit Weapon and turn the Great Giant Warrior Pirates into Nika Form. It's the only way I can see why the Giant Warriors Pirate are said to be feared and make sense why Big Mom was pissed off at Lola and saying she would of ruled the World already.
He was the first giant to enlist in the Marines, yeah. It's possible Saul was sold first and enlisted later, but it's splitting hairs- I don't really care if he was first but it is conspicuous that he was born in that time period and also somehow ended up in the Marines.I can't check now, but wasn't stated in Big Mom flashback that John Giant was the first?

But Saul isn't from Elbaf, he said that in Robin's flashback, so the fact that the Sheeps House was in Elbaf doesn't help.I don't really care if he was first but it is conspicuous that he was born in that time period and also somehow ended up in the Marines.
Technically we don't know if he is 45 years old. The narrator just say it was the age he became king, not the this has just happenedIf Harald is 45 years old 109 years ago, then he would have been born 154 years ago, which doesn't line up.
In the Vicre Cards it says she was born in Drum.That‘s an assumption, as I‘m pretty sure we were never told about her place of birth and where she grew up. And knowing Oda he had his reasons for not letting ud know back then.
For sure Carmel didn't say them that her work is to sale childrenI wonder how exactly sold orphans were sold to the marines. If we consider saul and maybe even the other members of the marine's giant forces it would make sense if they weren't happy the WG bought them. I suppose whatever structure she used probably had the children not knowing they were being sold. Something like the WG adopting them...
I could have sworn it was you. Tried searching for it here but I did not find a post of you on the topic. Maybe I hallucinated. Also possible it was another member‘s post but I could not find a post with Kureha and Harald anywhere at MH. So chances are high I found it on X.I make so many wild guessing predictions I may have lol.

On a different note you mentioned Morley. And there‘s a question I got for you cause I‘m a bit lost on the subject, but first I‘ve got to elaborate a bit further. I‘m under the impression you are familiar with people wanting to change their gender or simply feeling like they should not belong to the gender they were born with. Well you see I‘m not even good with describing the issue. So here‘s the thing in Morley‘s case, you are referring to Morley as a she because of“her“ talking and behaving like a woman (I take). But is it confirmed that “she“ wasn’t born with a female body and gotten her gender changed by Ivankov at one point? And here goes my curiosity question, if Morley was a woman that wanted to be changed into a man would you be calling them her or him?I make so many wild guessing predictions I may have lol.

It was said He was 45 years in Elbaf calendar which is 15 years human calendar.Technically we don't know if he is 45 years old. The narrator just say it was the age he became king, not the this has just happened

He would've been born 126 years agoIf Harald is 45 years old 109 years ago, then he would have been born 154 years ago, which doesn't line up.
I am pretty learned on the subject yeh. The minutiae of how or why a person is this or that gender isn't really necessary to dig through (or what they were born with for that matter). In the ways that *do* matter, Morley refers to herself in terms that femme folk tend to so that's really the end of it. Same deal with Yamato in the other direction, but I've already made a thread for that elsewhere.On a different note you mentioned Morley.

He said it in Robin's flashback? Glancing over just now I only know he was born in South Blue from the vivrecardBut Saul isn't from Elbaf, he said that in Robin's flashback, so the fact that the Sheeps House was in Elbaf doesn't help.
If I can chime in, I recall Morley’s Vivre Card has Morley listed under “newkama”. Take that as you will.I could have sworn it was you. Tried searching for it here but I did not find a post of you on the topic. Maybe I hallucinated. Also possible it was another member‘s post but I could not find a post with Kureha and Harald anywhere at MH. So chances are high I found it on X.

Interesting comparison with Yamato and Morley. Yamato has been referred to as son and Kaido’s daughter within the same manga, so I take it as Oda establishing that it’s fine to refer to Yamato as he or she, reinforced by Oda drawing Yamato with men in baths or women on color spreads.I am pretty learned on the subject yeh. The minutiae of how or why a person is this or that gender isn't really necessary to dig through (or what they were born with for that matter). In the ways that *do* matter, Morley refers to herself in terms that femme folk tend to so that's really the end of it. Same deal with Yamato in the other direction, but I've already made a thread for that elsewhere.
In no other area of self-identification do people have to "prove" themselves quite like genderqueer people have to prove who they are to cis folk. Are we fascinating in an oftentimes weird way to cis folk? Yeh, but is anything involving our junk situation anybody else's business? Not really outside of romantic circumstances. I'd be calling Morley whatever she wanted to be called, which as far as we can tell through the complex translation pipeline from japanese to english, chick's a chick.
Anyhoo thanks for the deferance and sincere curiosity, shit's in low supply these days with the whole *gestures wildly at recent Supreme Court decision throwing trans people under the bus*
