0:00At the end of 2022, I published a
0:03detailed analysis of Binx's Serve, the
0:05most iconic song in the world of One
0:08Piece. Back then, there was no Harley
0:11text or mural of the Adam tree. We
0:14didn't have many details that today, in
0:16my opinion, greatly enrich the analysis
0:19of the enigmatic verses of this pirate
0:21song. That's why on this occasion I
0:25think it's worth delving into Binx's
0:27Serve again to try to decipher its
0:30secrets. If we think of the most iconic
0:33songs in One Piece, Binx's Serve will
0:35always be at the top, along with the
0:37anime's first opening, We are. And it's
0:40no wonder, Eichiro Oda paid special
0:43attention to making this song perfectly
0:46according to his vision, as its
0:48importance is quite great. Oda tells us
0:52about this in the SBS of volume 50. The
0:54song was already written before Brook
0:57first appeared in the story. I think
1:00this is a good opportunity for me to
1:02explain that I went to Coheita Nakasan,
1:05a great anime authority, to create the
1:07music for me ahead of time. I wanted my
1:10lyrics to not be a problem for those
1:12who had to adapt it when the anime got
1:15to this point. I told him, "Look, I
1:18plan on making Thriller Bark in a
1:20couple of years." And that's how long
1:22it took me. What was it? Three or four
1:24years? Well, it took us about an hour
1:27or so, but he managed to get the lyrics
1:30for episode 488 to fit perfectly. At
1:32first it sounded scary, but with a
1:35little tweaking of the interpretation,
1:37it became even funny. So Thriller Bark
1:40owes a lot to the incredible co-genius
1:43Tanaka. I had hoped that the song would
1:46appear in school textbooks, but since
1:48it has the word "sacrificial" in it, I
1:50had to resign myself to that happening.
1:53Oda planned Binx's serve with composer
1:56Cohitanaka well in advance, and it's no
1:58wonder: it's the tune that's
2:00accompanied pirates since ancient times
2:03, the signature song of freedom that
2:06represents the adventurous pirates of
2:08the world. And it's a song that could
2:11hold crucial clues about some of the
2:13events at the end of the Void Century.
2:16The full lyrics of Binx's serve
2:18appeared in chapter 488 of the manga
2:20and have been officially translated
2:23into both Spanish and English, among
2:25other languages. But in my opinion,
2:28these translations sometimes take too
2:30many liberties in order to make the
2:33verses rhyme and make the lyrics feel
2:35like a song that can be sung. And
2:38that's fine from that perspective. But
2:41if one wants to examine the lyrics in
2:43detail, speculate about the meaning of
2:45the verses, and make theories about
2:47them, that approach doesn't work very
2:49well. That's why in this video I want
2:53to go over the Binx's serve song verse
2:56by verse in as much detail as I can.
2:59Here I will analyze directly from
3:01Japanese the meaning of the words, what
3:03the song wants to convey and the
3:05symbolisms that can be extracted from
3:07it and how we can connect them with
3:10already known elements of the One Piece
3:12story. In addition, I want to emphasize
3:14the inspiration that Oda together with
3:17Coheitanaka took to create this song
3:19and how that information can be
3:20relevant to understanding its meaning.
3:23I hope this video serves as a guide for
3:25all those who wish to analyze the
3:27lyrics of this song in detail. Oda
3:30mentioned that he wanted the Bx serve
3:32to appear in school textbooks, so it is
3:35not surprising that Oda and Tanaka were
3:37inspired by traditional children's
3:39composers from Japan to create this
3:41song. I believe this is true and it is
3:44very likely that this song was inspired
3:47by a famous composer from Japan named
3:49Shimpei Nakayama, who lived between the
3:52years 1885 and 1952. He wrote multiple
3:56songs in his life that remain rooted in
3:58Japanese culture to this day. In this
4:01instance, to analyze Binkx's serve, I'm
4:03going to take a song in particular,
4:05Sasurai Nota or the Traveler's Song in
4:07Spanish, which I believe was a direct
4:09inspiration for the creation of the
4:11iconic pirate song from the world of
4:13One Piece. Let's start with the first
4:16verse of Binkx's serve which says,
4:17let's deliver Binx's serve. Then we
4:20have the following. In Japanese it says
4:22umase, kimase, namimacée. Here the
4:26song uses three words that sound
4:28similar. Umase literally means sea wind
4:31, and it is a word used to name the
4:33gentle sea breeze. Kimcase is written
4:36with the kanji for wind and the verb
4:38macase which means to leave something
4:40in someone else's hands or to trust. It
4:43would literally mean to trust in the
4:45wind, but it can also refer to
4:47following a path or continuing on the
4:50path. Taken together, these two words
4:52can be read as let's follow the sea
4:55breeze. And the last word, Namimácé
4:58refers to trusting in the waves. This
5:02verse is simple because it simply tells
5:04us that for what is coming soon we will
5:06have to trust in the sea. The next
5:09verse is interesting. We can translate
5:12it as beyond the tide, the setting sun
5:15shouts happily. The word sawagu used
5:18here means to make noise, but in a
5:21joyful way, something like a sound of
5:23jubilation or celebration. I find this
5:26verse interesting because it mentions
5:28that beyond the tide is the cheerful
5:30sun. In the context of One Piece,
5:33talking about the cheerful sun is
5:35surely a reference to the sun god Nik.
5:39Binx's serve is a pirate song and as we
5:41know the first pirate in history was
5:44Joy Boy, who in turn was the bearer of
5:46Nik's power. Therefore, this verse is a
5:49direct reference to the legendary Yo y
5:51Voy. But it is curious that the word
5:54used to refer to the sun in this verse
5:57is yuji, which specifically means the
5:59setting sun, the crazy sun. From my
6:02perspective, I think it could be that
6:05the song is symbolically illustrating
6:09that at this point Joy Boy's crew knew
6:12they were going to die soon. That is,
6:15delivering Binx's loot is a mission
6:17that was perhaps the last they would
6:19undertake with their captain. This
6:22parallels, for example, Roger's last
6:24voyage, which was undertaken with the
6:26knowledge that he didn't have much time
6:29left to live. The notion that Joy Boy
6:31was going to die soon and that he knew
6:34it is subtly suggested in the scene
6:36that the Iron Giant Emet remembers,
6:38where Joy Boy gave him a knot that had
6:41stored a powerful conqueror's knot. He
6:43gives it to him, telling him to use it
6:45to protect himself or someone important
6:48to him in the future when Yo and Boy
6:50can no longer be with him. The scene
6:53feels like a farewell. The next verse
6:56says: "Circling in the sky, the song of
6:59the birds." In my original analysis, I
7:02speculated that perhaps the starting
7:04point for Binx's kick was Wano,
7:05inspired in part because at that time
7:08we were in the Wano arc and sometimes
7:10that hinders thinking, like in the
7:12present when everything seems to be
7:14centered on the BAV. However, I now
7:16have a different opinion on the subject
7:18. The first verse of the second stanza
7:20of Binx's kick is interesting and is,
7:22in my opinion, the most mysterious of
7:24all. It says Sayonar to Minato,
7:26sumuginoato yo. The first part means
7:30goodbye port. It tells us that the crew
7:33is about to set sail. The second part
7:35is a bit more complicated. Sumugi no
7:38sato is a somewhat cryptic phrase. Sato
7:41means hometown, but the word sumugui is
7:44used to designate a traditional silk
7:47fabric from Japan. We could literally
7:50say that the phrase would allude to a
7:52town where clothing made with this
7:54fabric is traditional, which supported
7:56this idea I had before that we were
7:59talking about Wano. But their Mugiei is
8:01a word that also means to spin, which
8:04alludes to the fact that in order to
8:06make the fabric, the silkworm cocoons
8:08are twisted tightly to make strong
8:10threads. Figuratively, it also means to
8:14connect words, to create or tell a
8:16story. So that gives another
8:18connotation to the place of origin. We
8:20could consider it a town of stories or
8:23a town of tales. But very literally
8:25their mugi noato can be translated as a
8:27town of spinning. And here I want to
8:30make a connection with a very important
8:32text that Robin found in the ruins of
8:34Shandora, a wall with a Pongliff
8:36writing, but that despite the
8:37similarity in color and text does not
8:39seem to be a Pegliff as such. It
8:41contained the following phrase: "With
8:43truth in our hearts and our mouths
8:45sealed, we are the ones who spin the
8:47story to the sound of the great bell."
8:50The word hilar in Japanese here is the
8:52same as in Binx's throw, so I think the
8:55correct interpretation for Binx's throw
8:57would be that the town from which the
9:00protagonists of the story set out is
9:02one that is linked to the Pongliffs and
9:05the record of history. The same town
9:07that wrote the text that Robin found in
9:10Shandora, the Kuki clan of Guano wrote
9:12the Ponglips, so again there is still a
9:14clue that perhaps the port from which
9:16they set sail was Guano. But I would
9:20now say that that town would most
9:23likely be the ancient kingdom. Well, to
9:28begin with, remember that Sumugio, Sato
9:31is his hometown and we now know for
9:34sure that Joy Boy's hometown was the
9:37ancient kingdom. The theme of hilar
9:40appears here and already in One Piece,
9:42for example, in the very name of the
9:44treasure One Piece, which is
9:46accompanied by the phrase Hitotsunagi,
9:48nodai Jijo. This phrase can be
9:51translated in many ways, but among them
9:53one is the great treasure of the rope
9:56that unites all people. Could that
9:58string be a story, precisely? The story
10:02that unites all people? I think that's
10:05an interpretation that will turn out to
10:07be correct, but on the other hand,
10:09there could be a more literal
10:10connotation. In a fairly elaborate
10:13theory that I made in the past and I'll
10:15also leave you with it in the
10:16description of the video and in the
10:18final screens, I think it's very
10:19worthwhile. I mention the importance of
10:22silk threads and the Silk Road in
10:25general in One Piece. This is reflected
10:28through pyobloin, a substance that
10:30forms kairosei and that comes from
10:32volcanic activity. The word pyobloin is
10:35a play on words. pairo, which means
10:38fire, but also with the silk protein,
10:41fibroin, which in Japanese would be
10:43fibroin. The ending is identical in
10:46Japanese, where the term is pyobroin
10:49and that's why I've suggested that a
10:51better adaptation of the Spanish word,
10:54if we wanted to translate it, would be
10:56something like pirobroína. This fact
10:59suggests that the pyoblo could come
11:02from an organism, a huge cocoon like a
11:05silkworm. And perhaps this is related
11:07to the ancient kingdom. Whether this is
11:10true or not, I think it is very
11:12important to emphasize the concept of
11:15spinning that appears sporadically but
11:18constantly in very important texts in
11:21the history of One Piece. Vegaponk
11:24explained to us that the ancient
11:25kingdom had a powerful source of energy
11:27and has hinted that this energy was a
11:29sun. Therefore, it is natural to relate
11:31the ancient kingdom to the theme of the
11:34sun, but at the same time we have this
11:36apparent symbolism with the word sumugi
11:38, with the theme of spinning. Perhaps
11:40for someone outside of Japan it is not
11:42obvious because there would be a
11:44connection between silk threads and the
11:46sun, but Japanese mythology gives us
11:49the clue we need to understand it. You
11:51see, perhaps many will be familiar with
11:53the sun goddess amaterazu. In multiple
11:56anime and manga stories, the word
11:58amateras is related to the sun or to
12:00fire. However, Amaterasu was also the
12:03goddess of Ilar. She has a large loom
12:06where she makes clothes for the gods,
12:09and it is also mentioned that she was
12:11the one who taught people how to use
12:13silkworm cocoons to make thread.
12:16Knowing this, we can understand that
12:18the connection between silk fabric and
12:21the sun through the myth of Amaterazu
12:23is natural to Japanese culture,
12:25although it may not be obvious to us in
12:28the West. Another important text that
12:31mentions spinning, which I will mention
12:33later in this video, is the prophecy
12:35that Toki makes before dying. The moon
12:38knows no dawn, you know? If that wish
12:41comes true in two decades during the
12:44night spun by moonlight, nine shadows
12:46will be cast. Then you will know the
12:49brilliant dawn. Although the word is
12:51different here, the concept of spinning
12:53is again present, this time in relation
12:55to the moonlit night. Let's continue
12:58with the second verse that says, "Let
12:59us sing with one gift a song of setting
13:01sail. The golden and silver waves also
13:04turn to spray. Let us go to the edge of
13:07the sea." Once again, we have the
13:09allusion to the characters 'destination
13:11. The edge of the sea towards which
13:13they are heading could be interpreted
13:15as the final island of Lafttail. This
13:17island has been referred to numerous
13:19times as the end of the road. And
13:20although in the past of One Piece the
13:23world was different, as the 200-meter
13:25sinking changed the geography, it is
13:28normal to think that Latail was still
13:30that final point of the sea, the
13:32meeting point for Yoy Boy and his
13:34people, the place where they had to
13:37take Binx's loot. If my interpretation
13:39is correct, we are faced with a
13:41revelation. The ancient kingdom and the
13:43afil because, of course, we would be
13:47talking about the crew leaving the
13:49ancient kingdom and their final
13:51destination being Laftel. Of course,
13:53this is mere speculation. In the third
13:56stanza, we begin with the phrase, "We
13:58are pirates, we are dividing the sea"
14:00and the verb used here is guaru, which
14:02means to separate or divide. This verse
14:05is important because it clearly defines
14:07for us that the story is about a pirate
14:10crew. And the phrase in general can
14:12easily be interpreted as meaning that
14:15they are pirates who sail the sea with
14:17energy. The next verse says, "The waves
14:20are our pillow, our ship is our nest."
14:23It refers, of course, to the fact that
14:26for a crew the ship is their home, but
14:28the word nest is specifically used,
14:31black in Japanese. And this is also
14:33interesting. If we think, for example,
14:35of Roger's ship, the Gold Jackson,
14:37which was carrying an enormous egg, we
14:40could say that the Gold Jackson was
14:42literally acting as a nest in that case
14:44. Could this pirate crew also have been
14:46carrying an enormous egg or whatever it
14:48was that came out of it? Of course, the
14:51verse could simply be figurative, but
14:53it is quite interesting to think that
14:55the allusion to a nest is more literal
14:58and could definitely connect with the
15:00mysterious egg that Roger was carrying
15:03on the Gold Jackson. Continuing with
15:05the phrase, the skull vigorously on our
15:08flags and sails. This refers to the
15:10traditional skull that is usually
15:12present on the Jolly Rogers of many
15:14pirate crews. However, there is
15:16something curious. The Jolly Roger
15:19typically has two key elements, the
15:22skull and the crossbones. This is
15:25because Binx's serve omits the bones
15:27and only refers to the skull. I
15:29theorize that the current Jolly Roger
15:32is a symbol composed of two elements
15:35that in the past were separate and
15:37represented different things. You see,
15:40in the prototype of One Piece called
15:42Romans Don, Oda divided pirates into
15:45two types. Basically, the good guys,
15:47those who seek adventure, are the Peace
15:50Mains. Luffy was one of those. The bad
15:53guys, those who seek power, are called
15:54the Morganir. This simplistic division
15:57of pirate morality was abandoned, but
16:00the essence of Oda's idea remained in
16:02the work through the duality between
16:05polar opposites like Luffy Barbegra,
16:07Roger, and Rocks and presumably in the
16:09past, in the Void Century, Joy Boy and
16:12Davy Jones. Therefore, I speculate that
16:15the skull was Joy Boy's symbol, while
16:17the bones were Davy Jones'. Perhaps
16:20that's why there's no mention of bones
16:22in Binx's serve. In the present day,
16:24the use of both of these together by
16:26pirates would be a symbol that there is
16:29something adventurous about every
16:31pirate, but also something conqueror.
16:33The next verse is very interesting
16:35because it represents a change in tone
16:37in the song. So far, the story tells
16:40how a pirate crew began their journey
16:42by leaving their hometown and heading
16:45towards the edge of the world to
16:47deliver the Binx loot. But what follows
16:50says, "Now comes a storm from a distant
16:53sky." We can take this as an enemy
16:56attack and in fact Oda has used the
16:58word storm before to reference this.
17:01Chapters 45 and 49 of the One Piece
17:04manga are titled Before the Storm and
17:07Storm respectively. Specifically,
17:10chapter 45 is where Gin tells Luffy not
17:12to enter the Grand Line because of the
17:15great danger it poses. 49 is the moment
17:18when Don Crig heads to the Baratie to
17:20take it for himself, but it is also the
17:22chapter where Miha Hawk makes his first
17:25appearance. Oda is using this word to
17:28announce the arrival of someone
17:30powerful, an enemy, in this case Mihawk
17:32. And so in this verse of the Bx serve
17:35it surely has the same connotation. But
17:39now it is interesting to question the
17:41context of this enemy. As I said before
17:44, the allusion to the cheerful sun
17:46beyond the tide and the crew's goal of
17:48going to the edge of the sea makes me
17:50think that this crew left a place, the
17:53ancient kingdom, to go to Aftail and
17:55deliver the Binx serve there. The song
17:57refers to the fact that the destination
17:59of this crew is quite far away and that
18:01it will be a long journey. There is
18:04another interpretation that I would
18:05like to explore at this point. I
18:07speculated that Jo, Boyi, and their
18:09people left the ancient kingdom due to
18:11references to the sun and spinning. But
18:13being in the present day in the Elbaff
18:15arc, where we have the history of the
18:18world in the Harley text and where
18:20there are strong references to the sun,
18:22I wonder, what if I departed from
18:24Elbaff instead of the ancient kingdom?
18:27If so, then we could connect Binx's
18:30journey of the throw with the Adam Tree
18:33mural. The left part of the mural could
18:36precisely be the journey of Binx's
18:39throw. Me and Boy and their people
18:41setting sail from the Baff and
18:43encountering the demon, the storm that
18:45the song alludes to along the way. This
18:48is of course unconfirmed, but there is
18:50a possibility, if the mural does indeed
18:53show us the final battle of the Void
18:55Century, that it is precisely that
18:57event from the past that is narrated in
19:00Binx's throw. The next sentence says: "
19:03The waves are dancing let the drums
19:05sound." And this precisely means that a
19:07great battle is about to begin. The
19:09sound of the drums, however, is
19:11somewhat intriguing, knowing that the
19:14heartbeat of the bearer of the Solnica
19:16god fruit upon awakening is known as
19:18the drums of liberation. This phrase,
19:21in my opinion, makes it clear once
19:22again that we are with the Joy Boy crew
19:25and supports the theory that the battle
19:27of the mural could be referenced here,
19:29since it even seems as if the battle of
19:31that mural was a naval battle, since we
19:34see a lot of ships. Now the song tells
19:37us that if you chicken out, it will be
19:39your last time. And of course, that is
19:42always true during a war or important
19:45battle. It is a call to fight with
19:46everything and not let yourself be
19:48intimidated by the enemy. The following
19:50verse seems very interesting to me and
19:52it was thanks to it that I noticed the
19:54similarity of Binx's serve with the
19:55compositions of Shimpe and Nakayama.
19:58You see, the phrase in Japanese says
20:01asunoas ganai yanashi. Asuno asaji
20:04means the rising sun of tomorrow. If we
20:07add the word ganai, we are negating it,
20:10that is, there will be no rising sun
20:12tomorrow. But then if we consider the
20:16complete phrase yanashi, it is also a
20:18negation. Basically something like no,
20:21there will be no sun tomorrow. If we
20:23translate it very literally. While
20:26researching the meaning of this
20:28structure, I came across a song called
20:30the Traveler's Song by Shimpe and
20:32Nakayama. And a Japanese blog analyzed
20:34the meaning of a phrase almost exactly
20:36like this. It's a song that talks about
20:39an endless journey through a desolate
20:41landscape. I think it's important to
20:44show the lyrics here. This one says, "
20:46We go beyond the dawn. Russia is a land
20:49of the limitless north. When the sun
20:52sets in the west, the east sees the
20:54dawn. The sound of bells travels across
20:57the empty sky. It's too bright to weep,
21:01too dark to hurry. A distant light
21:03flickers over the wagon. The black
21:05horse rests. It's not as if the road to
21:08travel won't be there tomorrow." The
21:11last verse invites these travelers to
21:13stop and rest. Though the journey is
21:16long, one shouldn't hurry so much.
21:18Anyway, it's not as if the road won't
21:20be there tomorrow. And that particular
21:23part of the song in Japanese is almost
21:25identical to the phrase in Binx's serve
21:27. We just change the road to the sun
21:29tomorrow and it's the exact same phrase
21:31. So what Binx's serve means here is, "
21:35It's not as if the rising sun won't
21:38rise tomorrow.""And together with the
21:40previous phrase we will better
21:42understand the essence of this stanza.
21:44If you chicken out, this could be your
21:47last time. But it's not like tomorrow's
21:50sun won't rise. It's a way of giving
21:53hope to this crew in a moment of doubt
21:56and despair. But as we know and as we
21:59will see later, tomorrow's sun would
22:01not rise again and the world continues
22:03to wait for that dawn. Before
22:05continuing with Binx's service, I want
22:07to finish showing the traveler's song.
22:09Because you will surely notice some
22:11elements also present in Binx's service
22:14and how Oda and Tanaka could have taken
22:16this work by the composer Nakayama as a
22:18basis for inspiration. Burning feelings
22:21washed away in the frozen desert. The
22:23horse walks through the snow. The
22:26people are cold and I am in a sorry
22:28state. A town with a bar is still far
22:31away. I am like a water plant carried
22:34adrift by the wind, carried by the
22:36endless current. In the day we travel,
22:39in the night we dance, in the end we
22:41will all die exhausted. Various
22:43elements of this song, such as Such as
22:45the difficulty of a long journey, being
22:47carried by the wind and current in a
22:49difficult situation, but at the same
22:51time dancing in the night and trying to
22:53see the silver lining in adversity, are
22:55themes that are also addressed in
22:56Binx's serve. In the end we will all
22:59die exhausted is a phrase that has a
23:02parallel that we all know very well
23:04about Binx's serve. With that said,
23:07let's continue. The theme of seeking
23:10hope in the night is highly prevalent
23:12in the following stanza. It says,"
23:14Today and tomorrow our dreams of night.
23:17We will not see the shadow of our
23:18waving hand again. But why worry?
23:21Tomorrow night will have moonlight. "
23:23Here we are already in a nocturnal
23:25period. Presumably the crew in the song
23:28has already lost and is close to death,
23:30as it is stated that they will not see
23:32each other again. Despite this, it is
23:34stated that there is hope, but at this
23:36point we are no longer talking about
23:38the sun. In the previous stanza, the
23:41attitude was towards the fact that
23:43tomorrow's sun would rise again, but
23:45here a different phenomenon is being
23:47referred to, moonlight. In this verse
23:49we are told that there is no need to
23:51worry, for the moon will illuminate the
23:53night. This seems to me to be a
23:55figurative way of making us understand
23:57that if tomorrow's sun does come, it
23:59will rise eventually, but it will not
24:01happen soon. Instead, the dreams of
24:03these people will travel through the
24:06long night, a period of darkness that
24:08will engulf the world for a long time.
24:10But not all is lost, not all will be
24:13gloom, for the moon will be there to
24:15shine as a representation of the sun.
24:18The text of the second world of Harley
24:20tells us about the death of the sun,
24:22which could be either the death of Joy
24:25Boy or the sun of the ancient kingdom,
24:27the one we presumably see in the mural
24:29in the hands of the devil. The change
24:32in the symbol of hope from the sun to
24:34the moon is reflected for me in the
24:36fact that tribes allied to the ancient
24:39kingdom in the present have lunar
24:41rather than solar symbolism. The
24:43families of Wano, the Minx, even Nika's
24:45awakening itself sometimes seem to be
24:47more closely tied to the moon than the
24:49sun. I believe the people of the song
24:51understood that the dawn, the sun of
24:53tomorrow, would be something they would
24:55have to wait for, and while it did,
24:57they would hold on to the moonlight.
24:59The dreams throughout the night could
25:01therefore indicate the inherited will
25:04being passed down through the
25:05generations, waiting for the next Yoy
25:07Boy to lead the dawn again. But it
25:10could also be a reference to the
25:12indestructible ponglifs that carry the
25:14message through the centuries until the
25:16moment of seeing the sun rise again.
25:18Also in the second text of the Harley,
25:20there is talk of the people dreaming of
25:22the moon and the half moon. The Binx
25:25throw could be referencing this text,
25:27noting that even though the sun has
25:30died, those dreams must remain through
25:32the night and towards the dawn that is
25:35predicted according to the third world
25:37text. The moon as a symbol of hope and
25:40unity among those awaiting the dawn
25:42could be the reason why the Kuki clan
25:45and its allied families, as well as the
25:47Minx, have been associated with it. The
25:50brotherhood between the two groups
25:52could have been created in a context in
25:54which they named themselves the
25:55Guardians of the Night, those who will
25:57light the way until dawn arrives. The D
26:00clan itself, where it has been
26:01speculated that the D is not a letter,
26:04but a crescent moon, a theory supported
26:06in part by the crescent moon mentioned
26:08in Harley, could be named with
26:10precisely that same connotation. The
26:13kanji for Moon in the Wano families
26:15could even be their own version of D,
26:17because in One Piece, despite almost
26:19all the character names being written
26:21in katakana, the method used for
26:23foreign words in Japanese, many of
26:25Wan's first and last names are written
26:27in Kanji. Furthermore, the prophecy
26:30that Toki mentioned before dying speaks
26:32of the moon not knowing the dawn, but
26:34that it will eventually come true if a
26:36certain wish comes true, which also
26:38alludes to the theme of the moon
26:40waiting for the sun to return. Another
26:43important point that I would like to
26:44touch on here is that of shadows.
26:46Binx's serve tells us," We will not see
26:49the shadow of our hand again, "where
26:51the phrase reflects people who will not
26:53be seen again, referring to them as
26:56shadows. This reference to shadows is
26:58predominant in both Harley and Toky's
27:00prophecy. In the text of the third
27:02world of Harley we have a phrase that I
27:04have translated as the remnants of the
27:06disaster still remember the promised
27:08day. But another correct interpretation
27:11could also be the inconvenient shadows
27:14of the past still remember the promised
27:16day. These shadows, therefore, would be
27:19the forgotten people of the empty
27:21century, the people of Joy Boy, who
27:22were erased from history precisely
27:24because they were inconvenient for the
27:26world government. Toki's prophecy could
27:29refer to the reunion of these shadows,
27:31because it says, if that wish comes
27:33true in two decades, during the night
27:36isolated by the moonlight, nine shadows
27:38will be projected. That phrase is
27:41interesting because the connotation is
27:43the same as in the Harley text, but it
27:45tells us about the reunion of those
27:47shadows when that wish is fulfilled,
27:49that is, that is, when the promised day
27:51arrives. Another important symbolism
27:54worth highlighting, which I referenced
27:57in my Harley cover analysis video, is
27:59the transition from the Sun to the Moon
28:02song, two elements that divide Binx's
28:05serve into two parts. And not just this
28:08song, but also the Adam Tree mural and
28:10the cover of the Harley text itself.
28:13Further evidence of the enormous
28:15relevance of Binx's serve as a
28:17reference to the mythology we've been
28:19learning about in Elvas. Now let's move
28:22on to the final stanza. Let's sing with
28:24a gift a song of the sea. Here the
28:26kanji for sea is pronounced as an aba
28:29and not its conventional form umi. From
28:32what I could find, this is a
28:33pronunciation that alludes to a wide
28:35expanse of sea. So we could say it is
28:37simply to provide emphasis, as if one
28:40were singing a song of the wide sea.
28:42Then we have Anyway, someday we'll all
28:45be bones. Binx's serve closes in a
28:48similar way to the traveler's song,
28:50with a phrase that denotes that in the
28:52end we're all going to the same place.
28:54We're all going to die. This is
28:56probably the point at which the pirate
28:58crew met their end. But unlike the
29:01Traveler's Song, a desolate song of a
29:03harsh journey through the snow where
29:05the next bar was still a long way off
29:08and there was no hope. In Binx's Shot
29:10we have one more verse and a very
29:13important one that differentiates the
29:15message that Bx's Shot is trying to
29:17convey in contrast to the Traveler's
29:20Song: Endless, aimless, a tale of
29:22laughter, a direct allusion to La Tail.
29:25And in fact, given that Binx's Shot was
29:27written long before Roger arrived at
29:30the final island, it stands to reason
29:32that the reason Roger named the island
29:35(Lafttail) in the first place, after
29:37mentioning that Joy Boy left behind an
29:40incredible tale of laughter, is
29:42precisely in reference to Binx's Shot.
29:45It was likely a moment when Roger
29:48realized that Binx's Shot was
29:50explicitly referencing Joey Boy's tale
29:53of laughter and it was because of that
29:56that he decided to name the island that
30:00way. Binx's Shot seems to tell a story.
30:03Tragic, the interrupted journey of a
30:06cheerful crew due to a threatening
30:09external influence, a storm. The fact
30:12that Roger considers it an incredible
30:14story of laughter shows that regardless
30:17of adversity, the crew always kept
30:19their spirits strong and hope
30:21accompanied them until the end, because
30:23it's not like the sun won't rise
30:25tomorrow. And although the sunrise
30:27seemed further and further away, the
30:30moon would shine in its place until it
30:32happened. These pirates never lost
30:34their spirit and hope, and although
30:36they were close to death, they declared
30:38that their dreams would travel through
30:40the night. Even before dying, they
30:42continued to smile and some exemplary
30:45people in the world continue to do the
30:47same. They smile in the face of death
30:49and that's probably why Roger laughed
30:51and mentioned that he would have liked
30:53to meet Joy Boy, an admirable character
30:55whose ideals transcended death. Because
30:58as Brook said, death is no excuse to
31:00break a promise. Thus ends this updated
31:03analysis of Binx's sack. In the
31:05description you will find my analyses
31:07of both the Harley text and the Adam
31:09tree mural, my theory about the silk
31:12cocoon and Pyobloin, as well as the
31:14original video I made on this topic, if
31:16you want to review it and see how my
31:18interpretation of this iconic song has
