History Trivia / OnePieceWholeCakeIslandArc

* IKnewIt:
** For a long time, many fans speculated that Lola's mother was Big Mom, the Yonko, and the Vivre Card was hers. That theory is finally confirmed in this arc. Unfortunately, Lola severely misjudged her mother, both on the belief that she'd help the Straw Hats ''and'' that she still loved her. As for the Vivre Card, it proves to have a dominating effect against Big Mom's Homies, but Amande eventually reclaims it, because it had been stolen.
** Pudding is indeed the three-eyed woman that appeared way back in Big Mom's original introduction. (And that little blue glob beside her is a Homie named Nitro.)
** A fair number of fans also predicted that Pudding [[EvilAllAlong was evil and/or deceiving the Straw Hats]].
** Many likewise guessed that Capone wasn't on the up and up in joining Big Mom and figured taking out Pekoms was a way to silence him before setting his plan into motion. Sure enough, that was indeed the case.
** Ever since the Marineford arc, fans suspected Jimbei of being a Haki user. Chapter 864 confirms that Jimbei can indeed use Haki, specifically the armament color. This would make him the first known Fishman to use Haki.
** When Big Mom's flagship appeared to be sentient, it started talks that Big Mom possesses a Devil Fruit that can bring objects to life. Indeed, she does have a Devil Fruit which can do this as one of its many perks, the Soru Soru No Mi (Soul-Soul Fruit).
** People suspected that one of Sanji's loved ones was dead on account of the fact every single member of the Straw Hat Pirates was known to lose somebody except him (which he did not talk about, and the crew on the Orbit hardly count as close), and found that odd and that he seemed to have suffered less that the rest. When it turned out Vinsmoke Sora was the lost loved one and his starvation was only ''half'' the story, everything suddenly fell into place.
** Some theories about Sanji dealt with the fact his eyebrows were curly because of something to do with DNA spirals or a genetic experiment. Those theories were right on the mark, as he comes from a group of children who were genetically altered in-vitro.
** Being on a island that has mostly a dessert theme and the whole importance of a wedding cake. Many suspected that it would be destroyed and Sanji, a very talented cook, would be needed to bake another one to stop Big Mom's inevitable rampage when she's denied it. Sure enough, near the end of the arc...
** Everyone who thought Sanji's choice of alias "Mr. Prince" from the Alabasta Arc had some special meaning behind it gets a gold star. Sanji ''is'' a prince. Oda was hinting at it all along for a good ''decade and a half'' in advance, even long before the "grew up in the North Blue" foreshadowing became a thing.
** Many fans speculated that Jimbei's role in the crew would be that of helmsman, due in part to steering a marine battleship from Impel Down to Marineford. Come Chapter 881, Jimbei steers the Thousand Sunny through a tidal wave like a surfer, confirming fans' theories on his position.
