Yeah absolutely, thats an excellent point especially with how openly/proudly perverted Oda is too! I think he has mentioned doujins/hentai at one point but not sure lol. I've seen Bruce Timm of Batman The Animated Series and stuff drawing his own official smut of that series publicly too. Murata has turning OPM into an ecchi pretty much lol.
I actually randomly once saw a doujin of Nami and Master Roshi of all people. I had no idea what a doujin was (as in the lewd ones especially) and thought it was a simple harmless parody chapter and I was SCARRED LMFAO. Legit haunted me for such a fucking long time, the things I saw! I almost jumped off a sky island after that! At least she learns the Kame Hame Ha though I guess! *shivers uncontrollably and then rocks back and forth, murmuring in absolute horror*
Daaaaamn haha, wow! I hope its not gonna turn out to be another Nobuhiro Watsuki type incident since Oda did work for him and still looks up to and is friendly with him too! Given some of the things I've seen from Oda, Toei and in Film Z, it makes me very worried. But I like to think Oda is still above that as a father of 2 young daughters, I really hope so.
Yeah I really loved seeing this side of BM, its transformed my perspective of her even more. I knew I was gonna love Miss Bonnie (and Clyde)/Gangster Pirate Big Mom, but her actually talking like that and being so caring and supportive to Kaido, legit "Big" sister vibes, it was really endearing and surprising! No wonder she gave Kaido such a POWERFUL/ALMIGHTY and VALUABLE DF too ofc! She really did care about him! She alluded to it on the rooftop but still! Kinda makes me think of my grandad and his recently deceased older sister in some weird way lol. She was hell on earth but she cared for him and had a massive appetite like BM and my grandfather lmfao.
Yeah BM is legit carrying almost every female character in the series right now, its such a bittersweet feeling. Oda couldnt even let us have an actual female strong sworsdwoman with Kiku but had to make her biologically male to fuck with us. I appreciate the trans representation and gender dysphoria topic but still...
YES! OMG! I was mentioning to a friend a while ago on how Nami's upgrade on Zou was so pointless! She used the extending climatact once vs Brulee or Galette I think? Even then it wasnt essential I think? And she had to get a free powerup from Big Mom instead ironically haha. Lola: "My mum is nice and will help you, she is a great pirate!" *curb your enthusiasm theme plays*
Oda implied Whitey Bay may have been killed offscreen when Kizaru was talking about Weevil as he discussed the casualities from Payback War and Weevils rampage and her photo was on the newspaper...Then he rubs it in by making her a former commander of WBs during the Oden flashback, WTF ODA!?
Hahahaha thats so true about Oda ignoring her upgrades in 150+ chapters and preferring to draw her naked. SMH.
It really does sound like a trophy wife syndrome thing. Maybe his wife inspired Namis current outfits? The early post TS ones at least? Or it really is what he wants his wife to wear instead? I do really wonder what its like to be his wife with what Oda is like too. I bet she has some really interesting stories and perspective to give.
