Donquixote Doflamingo / June 2018 — Is This Really Where His Story Ends?
Doflamingo is already imprisoned — yet Japanese readers feel something worse is coming.
Why does his situation suddenly feel like a death sentence?
And why does this discussion instantly expand from one villain… to the endgame of One Piece itself?
Doflamingo’s Fate Feels Sealed
61: Anonymous Pirate
Yeah, Doflamingo is totally getting killed.
mpel Down, the Great Underwater Prison — “LEVEL 6”
Doflamingo:
“What the hell is this cell…?!!!
It’s lonely as hell in here…!!”“Wait a second…
Are you actually protecting me, Magellan?!”“Fufufufufufu!!”
“So you’ve finally come…
An assassin sent from above, huh?”
14: Anonymous Pirate
So this is where the world war starts, huh.
21: Anonymous Pirate
I kinda want Doffy to get released under certain conditions, not gonna lie.
The Story Is Moving Too Fast
24: Anonymous Pirate
Wait, has another storyline already started?
Are they gonna spend like two years on the Levely?
27: Anonymous Pirate
>>24
Wano is coming this year.
28: Anonymous Pirate
Ever since Dressrosa, the pacing suddenly sped up hard.
Old Characters and Final Arc Vibes
40: Anonymous Pirate
I’m honestly tired of hyping up old characters again.
41: Anonymous Pirate
But if it’s a story where kings from all over gather, of course old characters show up.
49: Anonymous Pirate
All these royals connected to Luffy meeting up,
that weird giant straw hat appearing —
this is starting to feel like the final saga.
52: Anonymous Pirate
So that straw hat is an Ancient Weapon, right?
World Government Power & Magellan Talk
66: Anonymous Pirate
If the World Government seriously targets someone,
is Magellan really enough to handle that?
79: Anonymous Pirate
>>66
You’re talking like Magellan is nothing,
but he’s insanely strong.
He wiped Blackbeard instantly.
The Straw Hat Theory Expands
73: Anonymous Pirate
That straw hat is probably a crown — of the D Kingdom.
Luffy’s isn’t the original, it’s a Wano-made replica.
If it had actual power, the Government would’ve risked everything to take it already.
Celestial Dragons, Revolutionaries, and Chaos Flags
77: Anonymous Pirate
Are the Celestial Dragons even involved?
90: Anonymous Pirate
>>77
Saint Charlos is a walking troublemaker,
he’s definitely gonna trigger something again.
78: Anonymous Pirate
Why does Doflamingo still wear sunglasses in solitary confinement?
87: Anonymous Pirate
>>78
Because under the sunglasses… there are more sunglasses.
Straw Hat Crew Identity & Future Arcs
80: Anonymous Pirate
They’re still just called the Straw Hat Crew.
Why not Straw Hat Pirates or something?
84: Anonymous Pirate
Celestial Dragons will target Shirahoshi.
Sabo saves her, then we go into Wano — calling it now.
85: Anonymous Pirate
The Revolutionary Army might be hiding in Mary Geoise.
That mysterious final figure could be Dragon.
Meta Complaints & End Length Anxiety
88: Anonymous Pirate
People obsessed with the D hat are unhinged.
91: Anonymous Pirate
Is it true Oda wants to end this at volume 100?
No way that’s possible.
94: Anonymous Pirate
>>91
Bleach wrapped things up instantly too, so it’s fine.
Doflamingo Escape & Disappointment Takes
92: Anonymous Pirate
Magellan protecting Doffy just screams “prison break flag” lol.
93: Anonymous Pirate
For a world affairs arc, this honestly isn’t that exciting.
I need Buggy to show up to get hyped.
109: Anonymous Pirate
Please don’t make Roger a Gum-Gum user. That’d kill the hype.
70: Anonymous Pirate
Luffy really is a princess magnet.

Goodbye, Doffy…
👉 Why Japanese Fans Read This as an Endgame Signal
What stands out isn’t just fear for Doflamingo —
it’s how quickly readers connect his fate to global movement.
Kings gathering.
Ancient symbols resurfacing.
Old villains becoming liabilities instead of anchors.
In Japanese fandom logic, this isn’t buildup —
it’s the signal that the story no longer has time to keep everyone alive.
👉 Doflamingo as a “Disposable” Villain in the Final Phase
Doflamingo already served his narrative role:
exposing the World Government’s rot.
Now, fans see him less as a character to revisit
and more as a piece that can be removed to raise stakes.
That’s why “he’s going to be killed” feels natural here —
not shocking, but structurally correct.
