Alabasta is inspired by the Arab culture Oda got buildings from the entire region probably but it’s not inspired by Indian culture like seriously name the last Indian rebel group or last time it had water problems stop gaslighting people to think it’s inspired by India
So the book that is canon contradicts oda himself hmmm ???

Some people will use the ruruba book to claim India and other places as other inspirations for arabasta HOWEVER it is important to note that while the ruruba book is official it is NOT canon nor was it written or approved by oda. And it’s also the only source mentioning India.
It is because like I said. It's supervised by Oda and with Egypt/India case, it doesn't contradict the manga or SBS but expands on it. It would be contradiction if this magazine claimed that Arabasta is NOT based on Egypt. But it doesn't. So try again. :)
So you are just going over the fact that this book can’t be supervised by oda as it’s literally contradicting him or are you slow ? The only thing that mentions India is this book that is going against oda but somehow you came to the conclusion that oda supervised it ????? 💀
How is this going against Oda? I already explained it to you that it does not. Now, you will try again. :?
So you didn’t watch this video I sent you right ? Cuz it’s explaining exactly how it’s going against oda lmao

I did. The guy didn't debunk the case for India. He was talking mainly about Drum Island, totally forgetting that Drum Castle is in fact based on German castle, which he claims is bullshit. Find better source buddy and then come back. :)
Yes, he did. Cope more, buddy. :) Your source is some frustrated incel on Tiktok. Mine is official source databook.
Yeah he said the book says the inspo is this this and that and focuses on the United States one, that is wrong 💀
So he debunked the claim about US but not about India and Germany. Congrats. You're defending an idiot. :)
Learn the definition of arguing, buddy. You need at least two to argue. :) And I know I'm right because I have more information than you.
Since when is Grok reliable source, buddy? You're so desperate. :)
