One Piece Chapter 1018 is only two days away, and we cannot wait any longer. The title of the latest chapter will be “Jinbe Vs. Who’s Who.” As the title suggests, this chapter will trace the lines that were left at the end of the previous one. The Great War of Onigashima arc is still on the hype. With the battle getting more balanced with each chapter, it looks like Kaido is finally about to get beaten up this time. However, the serpent has been out of the limelight for the last two chapters.
This might be because Eiichiro Oda is giving other characters their time to shine before the actual Luffy v Kaido can happen. For now, fans are rooting for the returnee Jinbe who is all set to take down Who’s Who once and for all. On the other hand, Name and Tama are also out of danger now, so the only threat remaining in the Kaido. Let’s watch out for the epic battle in the next chapter! Here is everything that you must know.

One Piece Chapter 1018: Plot Details!
The latest plot details of the upcoming chapter of One Piece suggest that Kaido will be facing many betrayals this time. For a start, three hundred Gifters leave his side on the Live Floor. Whereas, the other part explores Nami, Tama, and Usopp, who are being threatened by Kaido’s minions. But Daifegu and Zeus arrive at the right time to save the three.
The chapter then takes us to the most intense battle of this war. We saw in the previous chapter that Jinbe finally returns after a long break from fighting. Now, the man is all set to take down one of Kaido’s most loyal men, Who’s Who. Amid the fight, Who’s Who stops to ask Jinbe about the legend of Nika. But Jinbe is reluctant to kill the man, so he blows strikes after strikes. This leads to the pillars of the fourth-floor shaking. On that note, the chapter ends on a cliffhanger. Let’s watch out for One Piece Chapter 1018 this weekend!
The previous chapter of One Piece saw one of the most hilarious scenes that the entire internet was talking about. Due to a magic blow by Rumble, old man Chopper was turned into a grumpy child. Moreover, we see that on Tama’s request, the Gifters leave Kaido’s army and join the Straw Hats. This makes the battle more even and balances the odds. With Jinbe and Who’s Who on the forefront, who will win this one? The answer awaits us in One Piece Chapter 1018.

Vegeta has been one of the most interesting characters in The Dragon Ball series. From being an anti Hero to a family man, this Saiyan has seen it all. He has also gone from being one of the most hated characters to be the most rooted for. Well, some fans believe that they know all about this Saiyan. But do you know what Vegeta is most scared of? Or how many children does Vegeta have? Do not worry because we are here to tell you all the unknown facts about this Dragon Ball character. Here is a list of the 13 Most Shocking Facts About Vegeta!
13. Vegeta’s Great Ape Transformation
Besides the numerous transformations of Vegeta, he also has an ability no one had ever seen before. We are talking about the Great Ape form of Saiyans. Many fans describe this form to be more like a zombie. The owner, like an ape, loses all sense of right and wrong. Destruction is the only thing they know as an ape. Hence, this keeps him on a higher spot than other superheroes.
12. The Stylish Saiyan
In Dragon Ball, we have seen many characters get a transformation time and again. And by the transformation, we mean a wardrobe refreshment. Throughout the series, we have seen Goku, Gohan, and other characters in the same retarded wardrobe. However, this is not the case with Vegeta. Vegeta has the most number of looks and fashion changes throughout the series. As the series progresses, Vegeta’s Saiyan costumes get constant changes. You will not find Vegeta in the same wardrobe in two consecutive arcs ever.
11. Is He Related To Super Saiyan God?
Many fans believe that Vegeta looks too much like the Super Saiyan God. This original God never shows up in the show, but from what the flashbacks show, we can say that he and Vegeta look like brothers. Akira Toriyama never really confirmed why the two look the same. Maybe Vegeta is inspired by God, so he sets his hair like him. Or maybe, the two are actually related. We will only find out when the future episodes unfold. If this theory turns out to be true, it will surely be one of the most shocking facts about Vegeta on the entire show.
10. He Has The Most Unique Moves
One of the unique abilities that this Saiyan possesses is the power to conjure a powerful spirit sword. The move was never seen before in Dragon Ball. This is a very special move that is rarely seen in the series. In fact, it was Vegeta who introduced this technique in the show. Besides the sword, we have always seen Vegeta use superior moves which are unique from every other warrior. It seems like Vegeta trains not only to become powerful but also to stand out from other opponents.
9. He Is The Only Rage Super Saiyan
Over the years, we have seen many original transformations in Dragon Ball. But this transformation of Vegeta is like none other. In fact, this was the first time we ever saw a Rage Super Saiyan transformation in Dragon Ball Z. Fan theories suggest that this form is very hard to acquire and the fact that Vegeta can turn into one makes him one of the most powerful characters in DBZ.
8. The Many Forms Of Vegeta
Vegeta is by far the most versatile warriors in DBZ. As mentioned earlier, he was the only one who could take the Rage Super Saiyan form. There are many other forms that this character has acquired in the past. In comparison to Goku, he is far ahead of our protagonist in terms of the number of transformations. Fans believe that Vegeta can turn in more than ten forms which are the highest in the series.
7. Bulla Is Vegeta’s Daughter!
Many fans are not aware of the fact that besides Trunks, Vegeta also has a daughter named Bulla. This is mainly because we haven’t seen Bulla in many of the episodes. The show has always set its focus more on Vegeta’s son, Trunks. We hope Bulla will also hit the screens and become a fan favorite. Let’s see if the new child is also a powerful warrior like her father or not.
6. Can Make Planets!
We have only witnessed Super Saiyans shooting powerful attacks. But do you know that creating planets is also one of the skills that Saiyans can upgrade to? Yes, Vegeta has managed to do that too. Of course, he cannot create a planet as big as the actual moon, but he can certainly create a big enough ball. See for yourself in the picture below.
5. Krillin And Vegeta Have Same Height!
Hard to believe, right? But that’s the hard truth! Vegeta is no taller than Krillin. It’s only Vegeta’s boots and his hair that make him look taller. But, in reality, the guy is only 5’3. We hope you will digest this fact in your own time.
4. He Has A Younger Brother
Many fans are not aware of the fact that Vegeta has a younger brother named Tarble. Many fans think that Vegeta is an orphan and all of his family was shattered by Frieza. But that’s a half-truth. His brother Trable did survive the big bang and came to meet him on Earth. Being the numb person that he is, Vegeta welcomes him in the coldest way possible. No one knows where Trable is right now after he left Earth. This is one of the most shocking facts about Vegeta.
3. He Fears Creepy Crawlies!
Who would’ve thought that a character as brave as Vegeta would fear the tiniest creatures? That’s right, just like every other brave man, Vegeta also fears creepy crawlies. There have been a few instances in the show where we have seen his fear come out. It’s almost laughable that a Super Saiyan can’t stand the sight of an insect.
2. Vegeta- Villain Or Hero?
This is pretty evident as we have seen Vegeta grow from a villain to an anti-hero throughout the series. First, his only motive was to find the Dragon Balls and become the strongest warrior of Earth. But when he finds Goku and befriends him, his arc completely changes to a villain with good intentions. Therefore, Vegeta is now a superhero on Earth who has pledged to protect this planet at any cost.
1. He Could Be The Next God Of Destruction
We have explored the theory of Vegeta being the God of Destruction time and again on The Anime Daily. In the Dragon Ball Super series, this theory is given even more weight. The galaxy is in chaos, and the last purple cat is doing nothing more than brooding. This is the right time that Dragon Ball baptizes a new God for destruction. Vegeta has all the qualities of holding this title. Hence, it’s only a matter of time when we see him become God.
So, these are all the shocking facts about Vegeta. Which one of these did you find the most interesting? Should we make a part 2 of this article? Let us know in the comment section. For more such intriguing listicles, keep visiting The Anime Daily.
Who do you think are the most loved characters of One Piece? One Piece is by far the longest-running anime in the world. Naturally, it has one of the largest fanbases that an anime series could ever have. The series also has a vast range of different characters, many of which have become favorites over the years. People love them for their quirky natures, sometimes for their strengths, and sometimes merely for the looks.
Whatever be the reason for their favoritism, all fans have at least one character that they adore. It’s this love that gives the makers huge profits. From selling merchandisers to receiving money through games, these characters make them a lot of money. So today, let us have a look at the most loved characters of the One Piece anime series. Ranked on the basis from the least to the most loved, these characters are undoubtedly fan-favorites.
7. Trafalgar D. Law
How can such a powerful character not become a fan favorite? Everyone roots for a powerful persona. Law is just the one. With his straightforward actions and composure, he has become the apple of everyone’s eye. Much like the new Vegeta from Dragon Ball, he also has a separate fanbase of admirers. Thus he gets the seventh spot on this list.
6. Robin
Another Straw Hat member who has managed to join this list of the most loved characters in One Piece is Robin. Robin is surprisingly innocent in her approach towards new people. Her calmness and positivity spread in the scene whenever she is on-screen. He has also helped the Straw Hats numerous times in their voyage. Hence, she gets a top spot in our list of the most loved characters of One Piece.
5. Usopp
On the fifth spot of this list is one of the most adorable characters of the show- Usopp. Many fans consider this character as their personal favorite sheerly because of his selflessness. Usopp has proved time and again that he aids less for himself and more for his teammates. He is also a very close acquaintance to Luffy. His likable nature makes him one of the most loved characters in One Piece.
4. Luffy
How can we not put the protagonist himself on the top spot? On the fourth spot is the man himself, Monkey D. Luffy. A character is a protagonist not because the makers make him, but because he is the most interesting of them all. He makes us laugh, he makes us cry, and he makes us root for him. Is there any other reason not to love him? There is no explaining as to why Monkey D. Luffy shouldn’t be the most loved characters of One Piece.
3. Sanji
Another one of the Straw Hat Pirates that made it to the list is Sanji. He happens to be one of the closest friends of Luffy. His loyalty and love for his team make the fans love him more. Also, when it comes to friendship and feeding everybody’s belly, people will definitely root for this character. Thus, he successfully enters the top three of this list.
2. Zoro
People always tend to love ideal characters. Zoro is exactly that. He is brave, he is honest, he is loyal, and he is strong. This is the perfect recipe for a perfect character. Let alone the audience, even all the Straw Hat Pirates dearly adore this guy. We hope that fate brings only good to this nobleman. Hence, he receives the second spot on this list.
1. Nami
On the first spot, we have the most lovable character of them all, Nami. Nami is often referred to as the backbone of this dysfunctional team. Without her, the lot wouldn’t have reached this far in their journey. Imagine Harry and Ron without Hermione. This is exactly how the Straw Hats would be if Nami wasn’t with them. With Nami, we can conclude our list of the most loved characters of One Piece.
So, this was a list of the most loved characters of One Piece anime series. Do you agree with the characters that we have picked up? Did we miss out on some of your favorite characters? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section. For more such listicles, keep an eye on this corner.

Dragon Ball has seen a roller coaster ride ever since the show started airing. The series has never shied away from killing off important characters when necessary. Neither has the show ever done anything merely for fan service. This is the beauty of Dragon Ball. The show has always been true to its core and went on with whatever the script asked for. Hence, today, we have handpicked some of the most shocking deaths in Dragon Ball history.
They have been numerous times that important characters have said goodbye in the show. Even our powerful protagonist had to sign off a couple of times. There have been many such deaths in Dragon Ball that we will always remember. Check out the list here:
13. Bardock
Bardock was never really a prominent character in the Dragon Ball series. It was not until the DBS series came out that we learned the real events that took place during Planet Vegeta’s destruction. Bardock was a resident of the Saiyan planet when he found out about Frieza’s evil plans to destroy his home. In what we can call one of the most epic battles of Dragon Ball, Bardock puts his life to save his planet against Frieza. However, he fails miserably and dies with the blow that took even the planet Vegeta.

12. Android 16 – Cell Games Saga
Dragon Ball Z has always been full of sacrifices. It becomes especially heartbreaking when a gray character decides to take his own life for the sake of a child. Nothing was more emotional than watching Android 16 giving up his life in the Cell Games Saga. During the last few minutes of his breath, he inspired Gohan to become like his father and break off all the limits of his power. The death of Android 16 inspired Gohan to take down Cell ultimately.
10. Nappa
This is easily one of the most shocking deaths in Dragon Ball sheerly because it contains one of the biggest betrayals of the show. We are aware that Vegeta cannot be trusted. But we didn’t know that even his friends cannot trust this man. Nappa was his most loyal companion and his closest acquaintance. During the first battle on Earth, Nappa was about to attack Gohan just when Goku arrives. Angered by this, Vegeta charges an attack on his own partner, causing him to lose his life.

9. Chi-Chi and Goten
We have seen time and again how much Goku loves his family and, most of all, Chi-Chi. It was during the Black Goku arc that Zamasu uses the Dragon Balls to switch into Goku’s body. This form was called Black Goku. Soon after entering Goku’s safehouse, he murders Chi-Chi with the use of his God Split Cut and kills Goten too. All of the family dies in a single arc. This one was easily the most heartbreaking arc in the entire Dragon Ball series.
8. Piccolo – Saiyan Saga
Piccolo was always portrayed as a character who cared for none but himself. But when a character as selfish as him decides to sacrifice in the face of adversity, there is nothing more heartbreaking. It was during the Saiyan Saga that Piccolo gave up his life saving a baby Gohan. No one expected that Piccolo would ever even think of giving up his life for somebody. This sacrifice is always mentioned when one talks about heart-touching moments. Besides, this is also one of the reasons that fans like to call Piccolo as Gohan’s real father.

7. Future Gohan
It’s the time in the future when all the major Saiyans have taken their places in heaven with Gohan and Trunks alone on Earth. The two become very close after losing all their loved ones. But when Trunks has to see his only friend die at the hands of the Androids, there is nothing more saddening than this. The death of the last member of Goku’s family is nothing but hard to watch. With the end of this Saiyan, we have to say goodbye to the family of champions.
6. Krillin
Another shocking death that came in Dragon Ball Z was of Krillin. Well, he has been a good friend of Goku ever since the beginning of the show. Even though he is a human, he has been with Goku in all his battles. But this one proved to be dangerous for him. This time, they were facing Frieza. Krillin’s brutal murder was as much a shock to Goku as it was to the fans. In a rage, Goku turned into a Super Saiyan and took down Frieza. Frieza is long gone, but it still hurts to know that Krillin will never return with his quirky jokes.

5. Cyborg Frieza And King Cold
This is definitely a good sign that the two evil beings were terminated. But the shocking factor is that no one knows who killed the two. So, Frieza returned in Dragon Ball Z as a Cyborg being, even stronger than before. Along with him, his father’s army is also on guard to destroy the Earth. However, a mysterious Saiyan pops out of thin air to save Earth. To date, fans are making theories upon who the warrior was who killed Cyborg Frieza and King Cold.

4. Master Roshi
Master Roshi has been Goku’s teacher since the beginning of Dragon Ball Z. We lost this old man at the hands of King Piccolo. The old master tried his best martial art skills to save his students. But fate waits for no one, and Master Roshi eventually died against King Piccolo in one on one combat. What was more heartbreaking was the fact that he would never return to beat Goku with his stick. As for Piccolo, is still regrets his early actions and tries to undo them whenever he gets a chance.

3. Vegeta
Another man who Frieza mercilessly murdered was Vegeta. In the battle against the evil antagonist, Vegeta is hit in the heart by a strong blow. No one expected him to die with a mere wound. But this blow was fatal, and Vegeta couldn’t make it. On his deathbed, he asked Goku to take revenge for planet Vegeta and kill Frieza. Goku abides, and we witness the ultimate defeat of the strongest villain of Dragon Ball Z.

2. Dende
This Namekian was a victim of all the wars between races. The cute little green child had no business to be around any conflict. But in the face of evil, all victims must suffer. The same happened to the young child Dende. He was an innocent child who faced Frieza’s wrath for no reason. Moreover, Frieza mercilessly killed the baby in a single blow which brought tears to many eyes. This scene still remains one of the most numbing scenes of DBZ.
1. Goku
We witnessed the shock of Goku’s death when he and Radiz were up against Piccolo. The power-hungry Piccolo blindly pierced the Special Beam Cannon through both of them. Well, this was undoubtedly one of the most shocking deaths in Dragon Ball. While Goku was resurrected later, Radiz was gone forever from the picture. Even after that, Goku has faced death many times in the show. And each time, the shock was equally painful.

Isekai manga always has a large scope of creativity in terms of horror. Alice in Borderland is a story that comes with an unexpected twist.

This psychological trailer involves a lot of unique horrors that fans might not have seen before.
6. Umineko When They Cry

A group of students is stuck on a mysterious island. However, the real horror begins when people start getting murdered one by one. The mystery is left to the readers to find out who or what is causing these disappearances. Whether the murder is one of the members of the group or is it a supernatural force that is causing these deaths, the questions are left to the readers.
5. Tokyo Ghoul
One of the most popular anime and manga of the last decade has undoubtedly been Tokyo Ghoul. The story of the original manga is set in a hypothetical world where humans and goals exist together. However, the only piece of conflict between the two races is that Ghouls only feed on humans. The protagonist Ken Kaneki is the biggest criticizer of this coexistence.

This manga is not for the faint-hearted.
3. Attack On Titan
Another manga that deals with a war between races is Attack on Titan. But this time, it is between humans and titans. Humans have always considered themselves the superior race.

The manga is pretty dark and disturbing, and it will likely suit your taste if you love this genre.
