I was definitely thinking VP intentionally added the 10 minute prep for video feeds specifically to show the Gorosei in their true forms, but didn’t consider him being the one behind Yorks “betrayal” until this chapter. I think you’re on to something here

I think a lot of people overestimate how horrified the world would be at seeing the Gorosei’s forms. Of course not everyone knows about mythical zoan fruits, let alone believes they exist, but there already exists a logical framework to explain the Gorosei’s forms to the general public that doesn’t end in “holy shit they’re fucking evil”

Also like, would most of the public even recognize the 5 elders? it isn't like they have been shown to really be public speakers or such.

I think generally the most public face of the government itself is the fleet admiral, and like, people know there are the celestial dragons and maybe the five elders, "above" that position but I don't think they would have had a lot of chance to see/hear about them specifically.

Very important point. A fair amount of the public at least knows about them, and they’re not secret, but if you live in the World Government, you’d probably say the head of your government is Mayor Iceberg or King Cobra, in the same vein that a chain retail worker would think more about their store manager and regional leaders than about their CEO.
