The One Piece anime just revealed Nefertari D. Lili’s official colours, and fans can’t believe how much she looks like Vivi. She has the same face, the same hair, and even the same shade of blue hair. It’s more than a family resemblance now. It’s a copy-paste look that’s got fans full of new theories.
Who was Lili in the One Piece anime?

Lili was the queen of Arabasta during the Void Century, making her one of the twenty monarchs who founded the World Government. But unlike the other nineteen rulers, she refused to become a World Noble and rejected moving to Mary Geoise.
That decision alone makes her stand out in history. After she turned down the title, Lili mysteriously vanished without a trace. The World Government claimed she returned home safely, but King Cobra discovered the truth. She never made it back to Arabasta. Her younger brother took over as ruler in her place, and that's the bloodline Cobra comes from.
The Possibility of Two Bloodlines

Here's where things get interesting. What if Lili didn't actually die after disappearing? She could have lived somewhere in hiding and started her own family line. That would mean two separate Nefertari bloodlines exist. One from her brother, who ruled Arabasta openly, and another from Lili herself, living in secret.
The One Piece anime showing us Lili's appearance raises questions about Vivi's mother, Titi. She also looks exactly like Lili, too. Same face structure, same hair color, same everything.
If Cobra is the direct descendant of Lili's brother, then why does Titi look like a carbon copy of Lili herself? Some fans think this means Titi might also be a Nefertari. Maybe she's from a secret bloodline that came directly from Lili. This theory would explain why Vivi looks so much like her ancient ancestor. She might have double Nefertari blood from both parents.
Why is Imu Only Targeting Vivi Now?

The timing of Imu's interest in Vivi makes more sense with this theory. Other Nefertari family members didn't seem to matter much to Imu before. But the moment the Five Elders learned that Vivi carries the "D" initial, everything changed.
For 800 years, the World Government had no idea that Lili had a "D" in her name. When Cobra told Imu about it, they were furious to find out the Nefertari family carried the name. That anger shows Lili must have caused big trouble for them during the Void Century.
Maybe Imu always knew that Lili’s family line was still around. Now the One Piece anime has confirmed that her name includes a “D.”
What This Means Going Forward

Fans are already connecting dots between Lili and the ancient weapons. The One Piece anime emphasized both Vivi's and Shirahoshi's reactions during Vegapunk's broadcast about the ancient weapons. Was that intentional?
Some theories suggest Vivi might be an ancient weapon herself, inheriting abilities directly from Lili. Others think Lili used an ancient weapon's power to scatter the Poneglyphs across the world, not the Paw-Paw Fruit, as many assumed.
The visual confirmation of Lili's appearance in the One Piece anime adds weight to all these theories. It's not just about looks anymore. The identical appearance between three generations of women suggests something deeper is going on. Whether it's about bloodlines, ancient weapons, or the Will of D, Oda clearly wants us to pay attention to this connection.
Conclusion
Vivi's currently on the run with Wapol aboard Morgan's airship after her father's murder. She knows the truth about what happened at the Levely, and the World Government wants her silenced.
The stakes have never been higher for her character. And with the revelation that she looks exactly like the woman who betrayed the World Government 800 years ago, Vivi's role in the final saga of the One Piece anime just became way more important than anyone expected.
