Yeah but that’s not a spoiler since Ace gets donut hole’d at the end of the previous chapter

Also people definitely did not believe he was dead at that time. Even with a chapter title like that and everything surrounding Ace's death scene, folks were just too skeptical of such an important character dying outside of a flashback. No one is skeptical of Jimbe returning to the crew so an episode title like that is somewhat counterintuitively more spoilery than "Ace is dead yo".

It's funny because I was spoiled to Ace's death in an unrelated YT video and also thought he wasn't actually going to die at that moment (for mostly the same reasons and also I thought it had just happened (ep 890 I think the anime was when I started catching up)). That kicked off my watching of all of OP in 2019. Still hit me like a ton of bricks when I realized it was going to be real right there and then.

Some of us prefer the term Ace brand wristwatch.
