Okay, this is slightly later than usual, but now that volume 108 is out, it's SBS time! Credit goes to AP's Redon/pewpiece/etc. for the info/pics:
-Someone wonders how Figarland Garling would look if he didn't cut his hair. Oda's response:
-Someone asks what Ivankov would look like if he ate the Uo Uo no Mi mythical Zoan at God Valley instead of Kaidou. The author's answer:
--Here's the human form of Gol D. Roger's sword, which, curiously enough, is named
Ace:
-Here's a really interesting one: Someone asks why Mihawk, who was once known as the "Marine Hunter", became a warlord in the first place. Oda says that Mihawk has long held a deep resentment for the marines, apparently because of a great betrayal he suffered in the past (we don't have the details of said betrayal yet, though). He's similar to Crocodile in the sense that he distrusts others and prefers to work alone, and Oda suggests that he became a warlord just to keep the marines off his back. However, now that the Shichibukai system has been abolished, Mihawk now resumes his usual business under Buggy's shadow in Cross Guild.
-Speaking of Buggy, the name of his new ship is the
Big Top Blaster.
-It's confirmed that Morgans ate the
Tori Tori (Bird) no Mi, Model Albatross, and he's always in his hybrid mode (curiously, even Oda wonders what his original human form looks like). It's also confirmed that Morgans is not a mink, since they're all humanoid furry mammals (so no bird-type minks exist).
-The girl seen hugging Shanks in chapter 1079 is named
Linaria, who is a member of the Butterfly Pirates. Shanks saved her life when she was little, and has idolized him ever since. She's also known as "Linaria the Flammable" due to being a dangerous arsonist.
-The name of the marine teacher who scolds Garp in chapter 1088 is
Ototogisu (Japanese name for the
lesser cuckoo). She was a former subordinate of VA Tsuru.
-Oda says that there are no "normal" civilians in Hachinosu.... it's completely comprised of villains and rogues. However, the island isn't a totally lawless wasteland, as there are still people there who run shops and whatnot.
-Hobbies of the SWORD marines:
Quote:
Drake: Is a big fan of reptiles and astrophysics.
Kujaku: Discipline and making snacks.
Prince Grus: Camping and dancing.
Coby: Fishing and training.
Hibari: Photography and collecting stuffed animals.
Helmeppo: Fashion, walking while eating.

-Oda confirms that among the giants collecting books at Ohara in chapter 1066 are Hajrudin, Gerd, and Goldberg. He wonders who their captain was at the time since Dorry and Brogy were still dueling at Little Garden back then.....
-Kuma's bear ears are simply part of his hair. In fact, Oda specifically says it's a result of bed hair, lol.
-According to Oda, Wapol's wife Kinderella only married him for his money (again, lol).
-The marine HQ has a group of elite cooks known as the "Yonriyorichou" (or Four Head Cooks). One of them,
Komakkov (who has the epithet of "Winter Kitchen"), was tasked with being the chef on duty for Saturn's trip to Egghead. Also, he may or may not be connected to Wanze, I guess....?
Well now, some pretty interesting stuff here (I particularly liked the bits about Mihawk and the marine chefs)! That's about it for now. Until next time!
