LA Nami is now 3 months younger than Robin. The series isn´t reaching Amazon Lilly but you have an uncastable show at that stage due to ages being all over the place a decade in.

Robin was a meaty role for a decade until Law took over her position in the plot for the next decade. She shows up before Chopper. There should be more of her in S2 than fans who don´t remember this arc well are aware of. Crocodile, not so much but that´s what next season is for.
I would have loved to see Joe Manganiello as Deathstroke but this too is spot on.

Whatonnetflix isn´t an official account. That´s why its operator trash-talks people and Netflix productions but their own site put the press release up for a few minutes making the long-rumored casting legit. Someone likely got the publishing day wrong.

People figured out who performs Chopper´s heavy form and most likely Ace (he is in one scene in Drum Island). That´s all we "unofficially" know past this announcement. Not even the back-to-back shooting or fast-tracking of S3/S2 Part 2 has anything tangible going for it. S1 had the full pilot script leaked a year or two before shooting.

Joe Maganellio as Crocodile is the most surreal thing ever.

I'm curious how they'll both look in-costume.
