Behold the mighty Kikoku (on the right). Oda gives Law such a Japanese sword and then seems intent on making the anthropomorphic representation as cartoon-y German as can be, perhaps! Like, myself and a few dozen others steadfastly ignore the nationality SBS! Kikoku is funny though.
The one to the left is Mogura, which is the name of Katakuri’s trident, and also a word for mole 🥰 I think Mogura is offering Kikoku some donuts, but he declines cos he’s tired, but it’s not clear (Edit in, July 13, Mogura doesn't clearly offer. He just says the donuts are good).
The requester begged Oda to make the anthropomorphism cool. Dunno if they were joking. Seems that Oda took them to heart ;-) It seems like Kikoku was a “bonus”, cos it seems only Mogura was asked about.
The next question was asking more fully about K-Room though, and whether it was an extension of Kikoku, I think. But Oda replied the K was for the K like in Katana, knife and so on, and the skill lay in the fact that only Law could wield it in the operating room his fruit made. But I’m just reading with machine translation here, so I’ll wait for some better info, BUT…I had to share Kikoku (not the ethereal shedevil most of us write her as), and the whole page of Law lore! Please excuse my fingers and the shoddy photos.
BTW, on the inside cover, Robin’s face is replaced with pandaman’s. Also, Kid, Law, Killer and Apoo all appear at the front to volume 106 in the line-up of characters. Will have to see if they’re also in 107.
Edit in: July 13
Artur's translation, from Library of Ohara on Twitter, makes more sense. The いや being a more general "Whoo, I'm done" sense (I think) than a "No" sense. Also, good information on K-Room and R-Room here:
Oda explains Law's awakening moves: K-ROOM stands for "Knife-Room", where he coats his sword with his Room, whereas "R-ROOM" stands for "離-ROOM" (pronounced "Ree-ROOM", "Remote-ROOM" if translated), being able to create ROOMs remotely away from his body

I love when my family is like, “I never know what to get you! You’re so difficult to buy for!” Like I haven’t had the exact same taste in gift since I was like 5.
Stuffed animal? Yes.
Fluffy blanket/clothes? Yes.
Art supplies? Yes.
Books about the ocean or silly history? Yes.
Strange noise devices or fidget toys? Yes.
Most of the stuff you’d buy for a child I’d probably like if I’m being for real.

SO !!!!!!!! New sbs and a good one because important things were told. The important things in question: a ranking of “drinking” with the mugiwaras (note: he refers to their love for drinking, not their tolerance).
There was a surprise because Zoro is not the top 1, it’s Jinbe! Zoro is the second and Nami is the third. I wanted to say something about this because we’ve always known that Zoro and Nami love to drink a little too much and I will say one thing: if they were ranked according to their tolerance, Nami would be above Zoro. I will die on this hill.
He also said that Shanks is more popular with women but Beckman flirts much more because she loves them... what am I suppose to do with this information, Eiichiro Oda ????????? PLEASE CALL ME I AM A WOMAN AND I AM FREE ON WEEKENDS, I GUESS ?????????????? Is this a hint because he has a million children from all over the world and we are going to meet them? MAKINO ???????????

Hopefully when Egghead Starts in January we get a new opening!
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE "The Peak" by Sekai No Owari BUT I don't think it fits Egghead. NOR do we want it to drag on like Paint did! 🤣
