>>282757645>>282757661>>282757677the absolute state of Sanji
>>282757701death by snu snu
>>282757766I knew these things were cyborgs! Still doesn't explain how the eye papers work. Also, why the fuck are the cyborgs? They might as well be normal animals
It's funny that Sanji is the only Straw Hat besides Luffy who actually had a story arc revolving around him since the time-skip.
>>282758019sadly he didn't get a character arc
>>282757833Thank you OP.
>>282757833I love Robin
>>282757605>>282757622>>282757645Oda attempts to make Sanji look chivalrous but he just comes off as really pathetic and dumb
>>282757833my wife robin is gorgeousalso thanks OP
>>282757677>>282757686Thanks, Carrot
>>282757833Suddenly bandages next time. Nice of Robin to let her conceal her breasts before their fight
>>282757751>that fucking frozen-floor-slide panelThe gags have been pretty good lately.
>>282757790>Hop inside my clothes.
>>282758016>Also, why the fuck are the cyborgs? They might as well be normal animalsIt's ok to crush cyborgs to deprave the enemy from seeing. It's not ok to kill innocent animals enemy uses for monitoring.
>>282759283but cyborgs are still animals just with robotic augmentations. they aren't androids
>>282759335It's ok, they only crush the cyborg part of them and free them from the slavery
>>282757605GIWTWM>>282757645>>282757661>>282757677I liked it. It shows that the SHs rely on each other, just like in Enies Lobby.>>282757701Okay, this is cucked.>>282757716>tfw Robin will never spank youWhy even live?>>282757833Thanks, OP.
>>282757701>even turning your armament haki off because you don't want to hurt hear hands while she pummels you with knuckle dustersI think Sanji hit a new low
>>282759335anon, the cyborg animals are stripped of their will (they wander around mostly at random), so it's ok to shit on them some more.
>>282757645KWABji. . .
>>282759935>They're just robots Yamato. It's okay to crush them they're robots.>They're not just robots!>It's a figure of speech! They're bureaucrats, I don't respect them!
>>282757645I guess this is supposed to be character development? Like he should have asked Nami for help against Kalifa or something and now he knows that.
>>282730720Chosen one/destined one has been the entire thing since the start. Already forgotten all the shit with woop slap, smoker, crocus? It's going to be way more in your face, and doubly so in a few chapters once THAT happens.Should it have been named at FI. Yes, I think so. But we already had luffy = joyboy and luffy = roger 2.0.
>>282757833>The perfect character development doesn't exi—
Premature bump.
>>282757645Jesus, all these side commentators explaining the joke...Oda is so stuck in the worst old shounen tropes
>>282757790Lucky brat.
>>282757833That Brook face is pretty good.
>>282757833The next time we see Black Maria she has a sarashi to cover her breasts. Does the anime add any "explanation" for why she did it? IIRC the manga didn't.
ODA'S WIFE DEMANDS HIATUS
>>282763585Isn't this only used when there's an actual /happening/? Like chapters are in 3+ weeks in advance, so something major happened that they didn't want to upset the 3 on 1 off ratio. "I was sick for 4 days in the middle of summer" isn't what I'd expect, and the whole reason you build buffer.
>>282757645I get what Oda was going for, I do, but I think that the execution could have been a little better.
>>282757677AIEEEE ROBIN-SAMA TASUKETEEEEEE
>>282757686Neat, Sanji's screaming helped Usopp identify Bao Huang's eye thingies
>>282757751It was worth it for CUTEbin
>>282759375Sonic style.
>>282757790What does Yamato's boob sweat smell like?
>>282757645>>282757661I fucking hate the obvious joke of randoms setting the most obvious subversion of the world is just as bad as randoms explaining what literally just saw
>>282757716Man what busted devil fruit, it makes situation where she doesn't use it look more stupid.>Great range>doesn't even have to look at her objective>huge force multiplier
>>282757645People forget that Sanji's chivalry is trained in beyond it simply being a desire to protect women because he loves them/is girl crazy. HE can't hit a woman, but he can let a woman be hit by another woman.
>>282757833Isn't there a joke here that only works in Japanese, and Maria's bare breasts aren't the only reason Brook is blushing?
>>282757534>Vol 100: You Must Be This Tall To Ride
>>282757645Sanji is one of the better characters in the SHs but man if he isn't easy to slander sometimes.
>>282757677Centaur man there looks like a non-shit Smile
Bump.
>>282757805Jack is back! He’s gonna make Kaido proud!
>>282757645Okama Mode bros wtf is this?
>>282769917Okama mode? Did people think Sanji would get over his aversion to hitting women by getting an Okama transformation or something?
>>282771836Kinda.
Chapter 1006 - The Honorable Hyogoro the Flower

>>282773431Thanks OP for the daily OP!
>>282773188Is it connected to Vista?>>282773012Why? It's always annoying when a power is turned off by sheer luck, even worse if it doesn't do anything for the story
Marco upscale chapter
>>282773012>>282773039https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odaWZsvwSEo
>>282773067this isn't even the official translation, why the fuck don't they just use tanuki instead of raccoon dog?
>>282773039Don't worry, Carrot will obviously get back up and beat Perospero, or at least help out in another significant way.
>>282773283why isn't King using Haki to cut Marco? or does mythical Zoan invulnerability work differently from Logia?
>>282773012>>282773039Now while I would've wanted her to win, Oda is rarely a revenge type of guy, there are bigger fish to fry ultimately, and by going backwards figuratively and literally, faith denied her the win. It's interesting how Oda chose to frame Luffy and Carrot mirroring each other by he going onward to fight Kaido while under his panel Carrot went backwards outside the dome. Fun fact about Peros telling her to nibble grass but this could be a nod to the Jade Rabbit.>>282773067>>282773245>>282773283>>282773320>>282773346>>282773372Reminder to thank Carrot and Wanda for making the ripples of these events possible.
>>282776945Saving Marco did a lot. Peros was an enemy of the alliance too, so, I don't know exactly why Oda framed it as revenge, but this is starting to come off as the rabbit having nothing to offer but the grass they nibble on. Just one part of the larger picture that is to come.
>>282777005He's not invulnerable. He can just instantly repair himself.
>>282773431Thanks OP.

>>282757790>>282772948Something needs to be done about male presenting big titty oni being allowed to get close to and molest young males like this.They are a menace.
>>282757833thanks opdang this chapter was filled with stuff, much different than usual.... probably because they didn't waste a page on luffy and zoro run piece.
>>282773012>>282773039this is the good shit
>>282773508It's fucking fiction.
>>282772887Honestly my favorite of the emperor + warlord crews except perhaps for Baroque Works. Lots of memorable designs, fun dynamics, several good fights in there.
>>282773320I'm always grateful we got more of marco, wish we had more whitebeard bois but this is still cool.
>>282773101Maybe it's the dino-loving kid in me but Drake's hybrid form is real cool.
>>282773283King must be thinking "a winged zoan with flame powers and an ability that renders him conventionally unkillable? This is bullshit."
>>282773346That supersonic flying knee is so cool
>>282779416Nah, this is distasteful.
>>282773395This whole plotline is dogshit. Can't believe Oda wasted pages on it.
>>282757833At least Robin finally get's her second semi solo fight, since Skypiea. Dressrosa's fight was mostly Kratos

Wonder if we'll ever get the T-Rex zoan, or if Drake's is close enough for Oda not to.
>>282773395He should've died.
>>282773346>>282773372king bleeding from that... with his flames on. mistake or retcon?
>>282782545Good catch

>>282757701absolutely pathetic for the left wing of the pirate king. no wonder why jinbe had to join.
>loses sulong by going backwards >cannot help like the jade rabbit couldn't help the old man with food but just the grass it nibbles onSymbolism Piece
>>282773431Thank you OP.
>>282780654Top lel. Never thought about it like that.
>>282765417it does have the durability issue that damage is transferred to robin
>>282772948lord
>>282773012I will never forgive Oda.
>>282773320The coloring does add a lot to Marco's attacks.
>>282784566Oda's inconsistent on that; sometimes damage taken mirrors back, sometimes she just feels it, sometimes neither.It's probably whatever makes an interesting story to him; given what happens to a clone in a more recent chapter, she'd be dead outright. I'll admit my favourite is just she feels it but doesn't take actual damage from it.
>>282773508It's a common trope.
>>282777343>>282783739I don't know what this autism is, but fuck filipinos.
>>282784643>>282784566If only there was someway Robin could give protection to her skin, like armament. Oh well.
>>282784650Organized crime is inevitable and people will romanticize it if the criminals actually limit their activities to the scum of society.
>>282764528Like Oden__ of course
>>282782754I didn't come up with that, someone already pointed it out in the general or somethingthat being said I think Lunarian invulnarabillity and flame powers are fucking retarded, just being a certain race shouldn't give you straight up magical powers that are better than most devil fruits
>>282773346>stupid sexy birdman...
>>282784566I think only pain >>282782191Didn't he fight with oden?
>>282773346Funny, I remember doing that exact edit back when the original was posted here
>>282788090I was about to mention the edit, even in the original it looks like a dick
>>282784674Carrot's loss to Peros served as a lesson not to get lost in revenge, Pedro encouraged everyone to go onward, but instead in the dome Carrot disregarded this and went backward outside the dome figuratively and literally (there are symbols to setting of fights notably the sky for Luffy in the final round, Zoro and Sanji in the right and left brains, and Carrot going back outside) taking her back to the entrance. Here, faith denied her the victory as clouds covered the moon effectively removing her Sulong (onward in Tagalog) this is illustrated brilliantly by paralleling both Luffy and Carrot in 992 of both going the opposite direction. Revenge bad, there are bigger fish to fry. However, Marco was saved which has huge ripple effects for the raid going well—with Marco getting Zoro to the rooftop, then protecting everyone in the Live Floor unti the stars are ready to take the stage.The detour didn't have the right motives but it wasn't entirely fruitless either. She simply doesn't get the personal validation and reward of vengeance. Because One Piece isn't about fighting for what is dead, but what is still alive. Pedro isn't forgotten, which to Oda is when a man dies. Luffy fighting for liberation keeps Pedro alive. While Carrot attempting to avenge Pedro let's him die.
>>282782191>I'm glad Oda didn't add feathers to the dinos, just because they look cooler that way.Well, devilfruits are based on dreams not genetics
Catching up on daily chapters.Explain to me why tf did Oda decide to make Scarlett 15 and Kyros 25 when he falls in love with her?
>>282788519totally normal thing in a borderline medieval society
>>282788531It wasn't uncommon even as recently as ~50 years ago.
>>282788419pretty sure Peros points this out himself but the whole revenge thing is ridicolous in the first place because he didn't even kill Pedro, he just went alahu akbar to stop him. They could just as well try to get revenge on Big Meme, they would just get roflestomped even more
Reminder that the age of consent in Japan was 13 up until 2023.
>>282788645in germany it's still 14
>>282784587Winning would've made her look better, but this wouldn't serve teaching her to not disregard Pedro's word as she begins to reflect again here >>282773039It may seem raw especially at the time, but this will pay off in the larger picture.
>>282788636>they would just get roflestomped even moreThat's why she ran away, right?
>>282788672Yes anon, Big Mom wouldn't stand a chance against two minks
>>282788636Yes, the revenge path is obviously flawed and Oda illustrates this, by not going onward like Luffy did following the words of Pedro whom he keeps alive at the mention later in Gear 5.; Carrot went back and was denied the vindication. This serves as a lesson because a character with no flaws and nothing to learn is not interesting to engage.
>>282788645>>282788648reminder those ages just mean that people of that age can fuck other people of the same age, not adults
>>282788645Reminder that this is bullshit for idiots who don't know shit about Japanese laws and just wants an excuse
>>282788531A deliberate choice by Oda for a guy he means to be 100% good. And you know why, you are just in denial until Watsuki stuff catches up publicly
>>282787656>I think only painWasn't her back fucked up after protecting Rebecca?
>>282788519>>282788531>totally normal thing in a borderline medieval societyAnd in modern Europe (and most rest of the world outside USA, really). Most countries there have AoC at either 14 (most common) or 15 (second most common). Most people's parents have significant age gaps, it's the norm.>>282789121>reminder those ages just mean that people of that age can fuck other people of the same age, not adultsLiteral misinformation. There's separate laws that states that anyone close in age, usually set at 2 or 3 years, are legal even if one of them is UNDER the AoC. The AoC (which is 14 in Germany and many other countries) is explicitly the age at which you can legally consent to anyone else who is also that age or older. The exception is stuff like military officers or teachers who are not allowed to do it with their subordinates or students.
>>282781837You are not an intellectual consumer by pondering about the meaning and message of fictional characters in a story made for teenagers' entertainment. You're being a pseud, who can't distinguish between reality and fiction.
>>282788519It's splitting hairs, but she was 16.>>282789658Anon, it's hard for me to think Oda is a pedo when he gives even the 16 years olds have tits bigger than their own heads.
>>282773012>>282773039And here it is. One of the biggest cases of bullshit I've ever seen from Oda and his worst case of offscreening yet. There are so many things wrong with this that I want to rant about.
>>282790294You are retarded, this is absolutely normal in most of the Europe, even if legal. Hell, I lived in a third world shithole and if the father of a girl found out the man of that age hitting on her, he would be out with guns
>>282790459absolutely not*
>>282789121that's not what it means and it would make no sense to mean that.you americans have a very warped understanding of sex and sexuality and consent.18 is the age where one can sign contracts because contracts can have complex consequences that someone with not enough experience might not understand.The ability to consent, in general, means the ability to know if you want to do something or not. It can apply to many things. Like getting a haircut or hugging someone.Being able to consent to sex comes from being able to know if you want to have sex or not, which comes from having sexual desires. If you can desire to fuck someone then you can also know when you don't want to fuck someone.Before puberty this is impossible because kids don't have the desire to have sex so they cannot meaningfully express consent to sex.Now of course, someone younger, like 14 or 15 is still more vulnerable so there should be laws to give them extra protection, and an adult that specifically tries to have sex with young people is weird and creepy and should be watched very carefully.But if someone can desire to have sex with another person and enjoy it then it doesn't change if the other person has passed an arbitrary age, and those laws reflect it
>>282790459what if the father of a boy found out he was having sex with a much older woman? Would he be out with guns or would he be proud of his son?if it's the second then the attitude has more to do with protectiveness of women than with age of consent attitudes
>>282790435She was 15, at least in anime, ther eis a caption.But also look at how differently he treated S-Snake and his SBS reassurance of pedos that they won't be found out (also his MULTIPLE pedo friends he defended).It's not even about sexualization, all shounen mangaka do that for their audience of teens, but his insistence to give teen girls to adult men. Scarlett didn't need to be this age, Pudding didn't need to be that age either, Oda just likes it this way. Some sort of scandal relating to minors or CP is definitely coming one day
Since when does /a/ have such annoying moralfags?
>>282790592Since always, retardbro. The quality of the members of this site has suffered greatly with chuds incoming since 2016 and the blow up of a certain board, but before that we have always had place for such discussions
>>282790559>Some sort of scandal relating to minors or CP is definitely coming one dayYou can keep waiting, buddy.
>>282790636This is a loli board.
>>282790592I didn't think this would derail into this topic, I just wanted to discuss this chapter in particular because of all the neat symbolism and a key flaw moment of my favorite character.
>>282790458Please doThis is awful
>>282783268Bounties are a fun way to represent power levels, but they not a direct indicator of strength, but rather infamy.
>>282782191>I'm glad Oda didn't add feathers to the dinosWasn't it mostly smaller dinos and a scattering of big dinos that lived in colder places that had feathers anyway? I think they found impressions for T-rex that suggest it was just scaly, and I don't think it's ever been suggested that allosaurus and spinosaurus had feathers. I don't remember if there's a dromeosaur based zoan.
>>282773431Thank you for posting OP, OP!
>>282777343this entire post is copecant fuckin wait for the magnitude of this butthurt when nothing happens because Oda decided to go a different route
>>282791100Yeah, I don't know which dinosaurs in One Piece have been found to have feathers or fur, the only dinosaur zoan I can think of that probably should have feathers is King's pteranodon. But I prefer the look without it.
>>282793597King's might have fur, he's just covered in a full body leather suit.
>>282790435The big tit thing is just Oda's tastes evolving over time.
>>282794530Post timeskip > pre timeskip Big boobs > small boobs Long hair > short hair Sexy > cute Vagina bones > no vagina bones Skimpy outfits > prudish outfits Only SJWs will disagree
>>282794810i like post-timeskip nami... but the crew already had robin as the sexy one, i think keeping nami on the tomboy side was a better idea.
>>282773012Based Perospero.
>>282794810I mostly agree, but Strong World Nami is her absolute peak, that has never been reached again.
>>282794935Nah>>282795466Fishman Island Nami mogs hard
>>282773012>>282773039bullshit
Jobrrot
>BullshitFor me is Hyogoro. I hate this chapter, even though Marco did ok.
i still cant believe carrot was perorined in all her holes
>>282794810I disagree. Skimpy outfits are cringe. What's left to the imagination is much hotter than any illustration can be.
>>282798660Spoken like a true plebbitor
I was about to write that the manga cover looked rough and focused on Ace/Yamato while cutting Brook and Robin but I realized that 99, 100 and 101 are a large fucking cover
>>282799162no, their dopamine receptors are too fried to use their imagination for anything
>>282799211More like their guilt for being straight men is too much for them to enjoy skimpy outfits
>>282799237kek. Honestly, oda needs to start drawing his characters in burqas and just occasionally exposing their ankles. Japan will soon be under sharia law and he must plan accordingly.
I summon OP to post OP!
Chapter 1007 - Mr. Raccoon Dog
End of Chapter.Tomorrow: Leader of the Atamayama Thieves Brigade, Ashura Doji
>>282802204Thanks OP
>>282802175ENTER
>>282802116How was it a failure? Because he doesnt have an hybrid form?
>>282802175not this fag again
>>282802040>even x-drake felt badlol
>>282802175NO!! Go die again already!
>>282802204Thanks OP for the daily OP!
>>282802746Because it's pink, when it was supposed to be blue.
>>282801819That bottom panel jaw makes no sense. This here might be the only example ever of continuity broken in the same panel
>>282802204Thanks OP! This is probably my favourite chapter of the Wano arc purely due to Chopper being able to flex his capacity as a doctor.>>282802746It's pink and not blue like it should be; Vegapunk is a perfectionist. The hybrid form for this particular zoan is probably it's awakening if I had to guess. I have a hard time believing Kaido's fruit wasn't awakened at this point.
>>282801389It worked!
>>282802040That's pretty damn funny
>>282802175ILOVEODEN!!!
>>282802040One of the better gags this arc
>>282802175I FUCKING LOVE ODEN
Sweet only 154 plus some yet unreleased chapters left
>>282802204Was this released over Covid? Has it been that long?
>>282801726>wooooooowwwwwwww the literal who bad samurai and ninja were offscreened after like 5 panels of "character building" and another 5 of "the straw hats are over here!"
>>282801819This makes me wonder how long exactly Orichi and Kaido's fodder have known that there will be no more SMILES incoming. It's been at least a few months since punk hazard and ~a few weeks less that the SMILE factory on Dressrosa was decommissioned. Did Kaido and his officers just say nothing and let them keep waiting?
>>282801881how/what did chopper block this strike with? his sparkling smile? He doesn't appear to have his little wakizashi out
>>282804140>Has it been that long?Perfect timing with >>282804079.Oda usually does 3 chapters in a row followed by a break week. This roughly breaks down to 39 chapters a year. So with 154ish chapters ahead of us, we can roughly estimate that this chapter was released almost exactly 4 years ago. Granted, that's not taking into account magazine breaks and non-scheduled breaks, as the actual release date was in early March, 2021. Somewhat ironic with all the virus talk going on.
>>282802116I can't decide if I love or absolutely despise this CP0 guy's designOn the one hand the mask does a fantastic job of making him look inhuman (as he should as a government spook) but on the other hand that fucking polka dot scarf
>>282799192It is pretty cool.
>>282801726>kazekagegaarabros...
>>282801757not my favorite character ohmasa...
>>282801947that's the cutest chemical weapon ever

>>282802175I LOVE MY NIGGA ODENI LOVE MY NIGGA ODENI LOVE MY NIGGA ODENI LOVE MY NIGGA ODENI LOVE MY NIGGA ODEN
>>282801699Caesar's sickly pale anime design has made him with natural skin tone look weird.>>282802040This is a pretty good scene for Chopper. I still miss the way pre-TS Chopper fought, but Chopper doctoring is a fine alternative, it's better than him using kung fu point. People say Chopper's character has degraded a lot in post-TS, but I feel he's been OK, besides his overly cutesy design. I'm not convinced Oda ever actually hated mascots.
>>282798596Not canon and didn't happen.
>>282801921>>282801947>>282802040Thanks, Carrot>>282802175>you now remember the crazy month of march on /a/ 2021>aot>evangelion >kaguya-sama>one piece
>>282793402Oda's not one to ever waste a character of this magnitude, it'll be slow but her time is coming.
>>282805927calling carrot a "character of this magnitude" is overselling her importance by quite a bitshe's an ancillary island character with a barely interesting revenge subarc. oda can't even spare actual strawhats panel space these days, i don't think carrot is going to come back into the spotlight and she's certainly not going to be important
>>282801819This makes me feel like Kaido wouldn't agree with what Queen is saying and that Queen is much harsher than he is.
>>282801975Was this chapter written during the early phase of covid? Did Oda believe in the Chinese bio-weapon theory?
>>282802204Thank you OP.
This was fun! more than fishman island, but still a bit whatever. >Nico didn't get Haki but zoro and sanji did. I get that Nico is OP as hell but this is sad. Conquerors haki remains really shit. Ceaser clown has a stupid powerful fruit and this dudes just straight stupid about it. All that power and he's using it to make worse poisons than just making fucking mustard gas. Baby addicts is insane. Oda is really into his PSAs - First donate blood during Fishman and now it's drugs are bad. Laws got one hell of a fucking fruit. Smoker returns, my beloved but what the fuck is the navy powerscaling, smoker should know Haki but doesn't, I guess. Navy fix your shit cause your dudes are gonna get dog walked but I guess he asked to go to the new world. Fun arc. onto Dressrosa.
>>282807410>fucked the spoiler. ah, shit.
>>282801921my hero>>282801947cutest mushroom cloud ever>>282802175MY HEROOOOOOOI LOVE ODEN>>282802204thanks op
>>282806051Carrot sticks out, however, her current place leaves a lot of questions, what happened in Wano still hasn't lead to any pay off, her kind's connection to the moon will be explored in future, and she's the prominent figure of said group. You say the Straw Hats barely get narrative, but it's the fact she isn't one that unironically helps her case more because I believe she's more likely to be important more than she's meant to join. Oda places a lot of notable side characters in the backburner; he finally told Bonney's and Kuma's story years after introduction. It takes lots of waiting, but Oda will get to it when it's time.
>>282807410pretty sure we see Smoker use haki in punk hazard
>>282790815Infamy is a proxy of power. If you aren't strong, the WG isn't scared of you, so your bounty won't be high.>>282802040Kek. People got so assblasted when this page came out for some reason. I think everybody was just fatigued from how long Wano had gone on for.>>282802175ODEN-SAMA, I LOVE YOU>>282802204Thanks, OP.
>>282804577PH and Dressrosa were only a few weeks before Wano in-universe, so it's entirely possible that they're just finding this out now.
>>282757737brook carries
>>282802175>you're so much older nowKiku, Kinemon and Raizo didn't age at all Oden you stupid fuck
>>282802175OUR KING RETURNED
>>282802746As usual, Goda answers his own questions dozens of months later with the memory of a damn grandmother elephant
>>282781144not at all, it should taste like candy
>>282812238Cheeky.
>>282807410Smoker must know haki to be at his new rank. Ceasar fruit it's simply stupid, now i'm waiting for the fluid-fluid. I like law. What did you think of baby 5 and buffalo?
>>282802175Finally. The platonic love of my life, Oden, has returned to save us.
>>282813101>Ceasar fruit it's simply stupid, now i'm waiting for the fluid-fluidLike always in media like this, Caesar's gas powers are obviously mainly based on the narrower pop culture/colloquial idea of "gas" (which is flammable/explosive and poisonous), not really the less specific science nerd idea of gas simply being a state of matter. When a normal person or most fiction media speaks of gas, they don't really mean just any matter in a gaseous state.
>>282814448I think him being able to just suck the oxygen out of an area is where it becomes stupid
>>282814584oxygen is a gas so he can control oxygen too
>>282810201>Infamy is a proxy of power.Yeah, I'm just saying that the two are proportional, rather than magically being in lockstep. It's measured by feats and accomplishments, from which their danger is estimated.
>>282773508How dare japanese romanticize a bunch of glorified robbers in law, the west would never.
>>282814717He doesn't seem to have direct control over normal air however, only indirect by letting his own gas suck the oxygen out of it. And that ability is only effective in a limited area and quickly dissipates if it's an open area and not an enclosed room, and it as a side-effect it makes him tangible and vulnerable even to non-Haki non-fire attacks whilst he's using that technique.
>>282814448Gas isn't even any matter in a gaseous state, the problem is that he can manipulate oxygen, poisonous gas, explosive gas, he can even heal poisoned people all over an island.>>282814999When was he shown to be vulnerable to non haki attacks? Anyway if he can create an oxygen sword sword he has enough control over it
>>282814999That's true.
>>282772887This color cover it's so cool
>>282816938Again when was it shown? I don't remember any of it, but it's a long time i don't read punk hazard, anyway the blue sword is a pretty good level of control
Thanks op
>>282790814It's simply not her place. HE decided to do it. THEY were the attackers. There's no vengeance to be had. They goofed and someone sacrificed themselves. They bit off more than they could chew at the time. Break Sanji out of his shotgun wedding, good, do anything else, you're the aggressor.
>>282773067This is where I think "crew member does their job" fails. Chopper is mook fixer that's the entire contribution this arc (and he gets a huge help from the minks and marco). But having chopper always fight directly is also a problem because his job/dream isn't smashing faces in.It's just a compounding issue with how the series progresses post TS, half the crew are sidelined because they have, more grandiose dreams not tied to fighting, but learning a thing or two and applying it, in basically a few panels (do you want 3 chapters of chopper brewing, centrifuging/distilling etc a reaction product to try in mixture X,Y and Z before landing on the correct one?)I know people hate how these types of crewmates are treated but without resorting to just brawling, their chapters are going to be boring as shit. Even the ones that centered on chopping successfully getting the antidote to mass produce it, were boring.
>>282810234thanks, so much shit happens that I dunno what the time scale was here.
>>282802175I was gonna say this is probably just the shapeshift-lady from the flashback again, but her fruit was adopted by Mr. 2 so she must have died by now
>>282819058Kaido said he killed the old lady shortly after his battle with Oden.
>>282818829>Even the ones that centered on chopping successfully getting the antidote to mass produce it, were boring.Yeah because that scene doesn't do anything with Chopper as a person, just with his skillset to solve a problem. He doesn't get to have or voice his thoughts on anything or have meaningful interactions that leave a lasting impact on his character. Also lol "chopping".
>>282802204Thank you for posting.
>>282819602There's also the fact that his skillset was so underutilized that when luffy was poisoned reiju had to save him, so chopper proving his skills here is way too late
>>282773395Fuck wano, 5k chapters and nothing ever happens. It's an arc with 5 trillion characters, 2 yonkos, and nobody ever gets defeated.Why the fuck does Queen have so much screentime: He sucked ass in prison, his rap is cringe and these aids bullets are boring. He and Ulti are the worst characters, just die already. What was Oda thinking?
>>282814448I expect this will be explained in universe as what Vegapunk suggested, that devil fruits were born from people's wishes, so the popular idea of gas led to Caesar's powers being what they are.
>>282824059He make a funny face.
>>282824059
Soon, surely.
>>282824059Act 2 Queen is genuinely fun characterAct 3 Queen is awful because Oda just turns up the comically evil dial on him for not much gain and the ice oni plotline is even more garbage filler that accomplishes little to nothing
>>282824059Queen is easily the best Beast Pirate, it's not his fault Oda dragged everything out.
Chapter 1008 - Leader of the Atamayama Thieves Brigade, Ashura Doji
>>282810133Vergo says something about being a superior Haki user but I don't think Smoker ever used it? maybe it got cut in one pace, which would be worrying or I just fucking never saw it happen which is more likely. >>282813101>>282814448Ceasers fruit is fucking busted. He has an AoE limit but within that limit dudes basically untouchable outside of just shooting him with Haki bullets. I assume if he were more adept at his fruit instead of just focusing on his poison science he'd be fucking trouble especially since if he got out of the "i'm the gas" into the "Gas Generator" mindset, man would be something. Something that is funny, since this is still a shonen and the bad guys are fantastical, I assume Doflamingo just never asked him for whippets or something.

>>282802175You know what I hate about this page? that Oda knows that some people will fall for it because his readers know him, he can pull shit like this out of his ass and it wouldn't be weird.I know is fake but part of me knows that the possibility is real that this motherfucker could be resurrected or "been alive all along" and didn't show up until know for reasons

>>282829823Oh for God's sake.
>>282829680FOne of the few I cared about other than Kin.
>>282829823I recently heard Orochi's voice actor for the first time, I'd used Wapol's voice in my head, so it sounded similar, but deeper than I expected. How were people's reactions to seeing Orochi alive here? Were there any interesting guesses as to how? Would it have been better if Kaido just killed him off instead?
>>282833091I kept expecting him to have a forced/flawed awakening somehow and turn into a mindless kaiju for someone like Kin to kill.
>>282833091Basically everyone just figured Kaido only cut off one head.Shit ain't hard to figure out.
>>282833091Kaidou killing him would have been better, nothing that happens after is worth ruining the moment where he died. Also Kaido should have just been beaten at this point in the arc and skip all the stuff that happens after with Yamato and round 3.

>halfway~ish through DressrosaMan, Usopp, I was really hoping the timeskip would do something for you but to revert immediately so hard to blatant cowardice, even in the green bit where you should be at home. I don't know what I was expecting. The colosseum shenanigans really went on for a long time, I don't think it's bad? the flame flame fruit being the prize is a fun way of immediately raising the stakes. Robin not getting Haki really was Odas' way of not immediately having every problem solved by her best Iron Sheik impression and turning every warlord into a Jabroni. Bartolomeo is fun. Because i'm watching it through One Pace, the cuts are all a bit awkward since they're removing quite a lot of connecting material (twenty two fucking hours of content btw.) Fujitora / issho is cool as all hell. Gravity fruit is dope. Doflamingos minions are all weird as shit and (most) of them are kind of wanky villains but fun characters. >>282843165His being a massive piece of shit has been one of his most enjoyable qualities. >what if I spent my freetime directing sandstorms to bully one old bastard in a dead town so that his wells never work. bastard(affectionate.)

>>282850385>Naraku
>>282850420womp womp
>>282849236Laws cool. Punk Hazards best bits are his total revelations that the straw hat pirates are by far and away, the dumbest motherfuckers to have ever made it this far. It's fun seeing his power even if I don't fully get it. If it can make a circle why didn't he just put doflamingo into the ocean, replaced with a fighting fish or the water itself? Or take something important off him. I suppose theres a Haki element too it? but whatever. its busted. Rebecca and Kyros is a sad time but very adorable, somewhat ruined by the massive tits rebecca has on display at all times. Kyros unleashed went straight for that fuckers head but unfortunately, Doflamingo stole the jojo fruit and is now string. the hobby fruit is a funny little power, and sugar getting ko'd by usopp is a fun gag but I am really over Usopp and the gag / gimmick about God Usopp, fuckin skip. I will never care about Sabo (t. the man who said he'd never care about Bon Clay or Sanji.) I haven't seen more of Laws backstory but I gather it's going to be kind of soon since Doflamingo and the rest just fucked off atop the Pica Palace express to flower hill. Bartolomeo being a giant fanboy is the most endearing shit for a professional ragebaiter. I'm looking forward to the inevitable fallout between issho and doflamingo since it's pretty obvious that dude hates him but can't touch him.
>>282850411So Fukurokuju always knew Orochi wasn't killed by Kaido?>>282850472>>282850492I do like how Dorry and Brogy's hakoku sovereignty move is used by Big Mom and Kaido

>>282853856Perospero is one of the best post-TS characters for sure, I find him more interesting than Katakuri. I like how he has a complex from being the eldest, and despite him working hard to become strong and respectable, he's overshadowed by Katakuri's natural talent. I also like that they're still good bros to each other, it's better than if Peros disliked him for it. I hope Perospero isn't dead. Feel like it could go either way, but if he dies he had a good run.
>>282854692>>282853856Based. Katakuri gets hype from the fightfags, but to me Perospero is easily the best BM pirate in terms of both design and personality.
>>282854692All I know is that Oda has drawn Carrot a lot more than perospero, since the end of Wano. He hasn't drawn him at all, come to think of it...
>>282853856>>282854692Nah, he can eat dick, an enemy of the alliance is an enemy. Also, if Carrot didn't have a flawed moment, there's nothing to learn there.

>>282843797Some of this is on me for binging through these arcs but it's been a growing issue that they've been getting more and more dense not just in terms of length (which is a byproduct, mainly of:) in the amount of fucking flashbacks and setups for emotional payoffs. Don't fucking make Senor Pink part of doflamingos crew, but I get the feeling that the time of funny crews is long gone now that were in The New World and post-timeskip. Which, I get is a weird thing to say given the tontattans and the snot monster Trebol but the swimming through stone fruit on the baby man is. it really takes away from the menace of Doflamingo, a man so driven by hate and anger of his existence being tainted with human concepts of pain and hunger, of not being worshipped and allowed to act out every inhumane idea he thinks of that he makes his friends call him young master and when he can't be loved by the people of dressrosa enacts the bird cage and forces them to kill each other just to instill fear. then theres senor pink. yeah, whatever, ok. I've put too much into this but at the same time you fucking put it in there Oda. Zoro fucking up Pica was great. Introducing Mansherrys fruit to (presumably, inevitably) heal Trafalgars arm instead of comitting to some more long term changes.. eh. At least let Kyros get his leg back, I guess. Anyway i've still got so much more to go. I thought I was about halfway through but uh, maybe 1/3rd then, half now. these last 10 or so episodes are going to be pretty dense and double the length. >>282860327Yeah I was really hoping he'd be another swordsman more often. Maybe it just hasn't happened yet, Wano is samurai country I guess, so maybe i'll get some fun stuff with Kinemon and Kanjuroo and brook when I get there. And then I can read the thread I blogpost in! >>282859198whats a BMP
>>282860789>whats a BMPIt’s what you cook Russians in
>>282860796Based. My favourite way to shake the hornets nest is to ask them how the war is going but I don't know what that has to do with One Piece.

>>282859338Isn't trasformation henshin>>282860789Why would law of all people need mansherry fruit
>>282861384We've seen him replace bits or switch them around, I guess I just assume he couldn't add on but given the eternal life they keep mentioning and fucking, everything else. yeah, I guess. dudes got a "limited" omnipotence field. >give yourself eternal life>cast from hit pointswhat happens? who's to say. I guess it doesn't matter. seems a bit redundant to have the ope-ope fruit then introduce mansherrys healing fruit so close to each other. >>282861159Oh. I don't know about any of that, she seems like a cunt from the limited bit of her I saw during Fishman island but i've still got a lot to go.
>>282860789Thoughts on Corazon and this entire backstory?Honestly one of the very few things I felt emotionally invested in.Fuck Senor Pink
>>282861486Favorite donquixote pirate?
>>282850727I am retarded or the part where zoro cuts the floor was anime only???
>>282862197Oda consistently knows that he's basically writing schlock - Good, fun, imaginitive schlock with wacky characters but still schlock but he knows his audience and the ways to connect with him. He did it with the going merry, he did it with Vivi and he did it again with Corazon. if I hadn't been basically ruining my brain by watching far too much one piece in one day, it would have been stupid effective. It's a fun backstory and it hits the right emotional beats. It's really good - I was invested in it too even if I knew there was no way it was going to end well. Also Sengoku having fun. >>282862239Probably Pica. Sugar has a cool fruit and is a little psycho but Pica is consistently just on the same level of doflamingo as a menacing figure. Not powerwise, he is weaker but he's willing to just kill, or target the weaker fighters or otherwise knows how to use his fruit. his voice gag also got me. I'm really torn on Dressrosa. I feel like it's kind of ruined by being in a shonen? Doflamingo is a cool bad guy but then you look at most of his subordinates and it all sort of falls apart. Sugar and Pica are really doing the bulk of the work in terms of power here, with, annoyingly, senor pink at least having a cool noir showdown going on with Frankie. Trebol needed to get shown actually fighting someone, since his power should be good but I think it's supposed to be a theme with him that his main 'danger' is exaggerated. He basically creates Doflamingo as we know him, giving him the ability to both kill (gun) and control his destiny (fruit.) while constantly feeding his psycho tendencies and ego that he's destined for greatness. then his logia is just a fat paramecia he hides inside and he's an old man who falls over if you just actually hit him.. but then his snot fucking explodes and he can hit a fly dead between the eyes so fucking, whatever. Gear four being super saiyan 4 gorilla really didn't do it for me.
>>282856986the shows that a good devilfruit isn't all you need to be a top fighter
>>282860371>No, but also, a normal person would also be fucked here. Losing your ability to swim is remarkably unimportanta normal person, but beast like Kaido and Big Mom would survive a fall like this and then come back at the next best chance
>>282862512>>282850778>>282852132desu I think any mid-high tier should be able to skywalk. At the end of the day it's just kicking the air very hard and fast, and any strong pirate in the new world is considerably stronger and faster than water 7 cp9
>>282862549true, If fucking nero could do it every remotely strong character should do too, it's by far the best of the six powers and is borderline flight. at the same time I think it would look stupid when literally every character would just bounce in the air all the time, and it would make water even more of a non issue for DF eaters than it already is
>>282862913It seems like it's a specific technique
>>282757645If your brain isn't rotten by agenda/slander memes, this is actually a neat bit of development for Sanji.
>>282862549It's like treading water. It's all in the technique, it doesn't matter how strong you are. Big Meme never had a reason to learn it.
>>282864626Nta but a lot of fodders in her crew know how to do it
>>282801947cute
>>282829448>>282829479how these retards fell for this?
>>282864661And I know how to tread water but my grandma doesn't.
>>282850727great fight
>>282867794Sure, and considering cp 9 study it for years, while big mom for the most part has incredible size and strength it's not surprising she never learned, particularly considering she has Zeus
>>282857033I really don't like it but Law's power is bullshit and completely inconsistent anyways.
>>282850852Law should’ve used his fruit to remove Doffy’s glasses just to troll him
I think Onigashima it's great. Not perfect obviously but a straight 7,5/10. Act 2 it's the weakest.

>>282871906ZOLOOOO!!! MY FUCKING HEROOO!!
>>282871960so is thunder bagua an actual lightning attack channeled thorough his df powers since he can apperantly use almost every element with his dragon powers? I always thought it's just hitting someone very hard with his club
!!!
Two new conquerors have awakened in Onigashima! Will it be enough to break through Kaido's scales? Find out in Tomorrow's Chapter: The Code of Sweet Beans
>>282871984I FUCKING LOVE SAMURAIAND I FUCKING LOVE ODEN
I love Kaido's hybrid form and this fight has gotten good. Thanks OP
>>282871906man this attack sucks now
>>282871874For those keeping count, this is the second time in this fight Luffy is KO'd/disabled at Kaido's mercy.>>282871941I love how Zoro keeps getting haki stuff but through his own swordsman pseudo-buddhism interpretation where he doesn't even think of it as haki.
>>282871718I don't know why that panel with Prometheus is so funny to me.
>>282871906I don’t get how he grows extra body parts>>282872083Shoryuken!>>282872114Thanks OP
>>282871718>>282871874How does King lose to Zoro after Zoro basically spends all of his energy fighting Kaido/BM? Does he get a senzu bean/healed somehow? I forgot.
>>282874079Yes minks drugs
>>282871803>We don't need to kill Big Mom because...we just don't, okay?>>282871906HOLY FUARK>>282872005>>282872029>>282872063>>282872083Insane aura.>>282872114Thanks, OP.

I have had a big sleepy eepy bo peepy and I have decided. Dressrosa is good. it spends too much time in the colosseum, kind of fucks over Kyros. fun fruit fights. smart move to fuck off brook, chopper, nami and sanji to make space for Dressrosa. Doffy is a cool villain but I am sad we didn't get a total breakdown (we kind of did with bird cage.) where he loses all composure about it but he's not dead so maybe later. It's not like we haven't broken into Impel Down before! Had a distinct lack of buggy and it got really unweildy near the end since the fights were all over the place - I'd rather a fight start and finish before we see the next one really kick off though I accept that's just not going to (in this arc.) happen especially since the villains are sort of pushovers if you're willing to throw one of our monsters at them (outside of Pica and doflamingo, fittingly.) I'm a little sad that the next arc, presumably, has more focus on the others then were back together on whole cake? I hope so, I enjoy the adventures of the crew together more than some of the crew and some other bits of the crew. Looking forward to however it all goes at any rate. Trafalgar D. Water Law being enemies of the world government and the celestial dragons.yeah a little wary of the creeping "Luffy is a chosen one." but it could just be an assassins creed templar / assassins situation where this one was a successful run instead of a specific chosen one and were just following the most successful D. though the chances of that being the case feel not great if trafalgar is getting his shit beat. Perhaps we'll find out more when more of this Joyboy gets brought up in the next Poneglyph. I think i'm going to let it sit for a few more hours, digest a bit more of dressrosa before I head onto Zou.
>>282871984>And I'm not being literal when I say the 'World', you see straw hat there is actually an ancient deadly ene->I FUCKING LOVE ODEN, GOMU GOMU NOOOO>Oh well then
>>282878288I feel that rebecca's plotline was pretty bad and fujitora is a pretty bad person who gambled with akingdom to make a point but yes overall dressrosa was nice. What do you think about doflamingo and law backstories?
>>282878462Rebeccas plot starts off fine but she gets shelved very quickly which ruins whatever they were doing with her - doens't help she looks the way she does. it's hard to take anyone seriously when they're dressed like a JRPG MMO ad. Fujitora made a gamble but I fully believe he could have wiped doflamingo off the map but he's also the only other Marine doing fucking anything to rehab their image, Smoker and Fuji are the only two worth a damn. Garp, tsuru and sengoku are wankers (see marineford.) and the rest have all been corrupt or incompetent. outside of Akainu, who is a terrifying dyed in the wool stooge. I'd say Kizaru and aokiji were aswell but aokiji is..retired? or undercover and Kizaru seems more like an attack dog than anything else. I haven't seen him do anything except turn up and cause problems. It IS fucked that Fuji would make the gamble to put it all on Luffy and the straw hats to clean up the donquixotes but its the only way he could see to making the warlord system get brought back into questioning. If he was less competent or less powerful, I'd say the gamble was a mistake but I think he could have dogwalked the donquixotes and he put it on the line - he was in the bird cage aswell and then commits himself and the marines to trying to hold it back.
