Massive set up chapter, shame the breaks have been a nightmare since Golden Week.
The colour page controversy is funny/pathetic in equal measures.
Two minor interesting things about Gandhi. First, I noted a few weeks ago that Gorbachev is usually the central figure in the Gorosei. Thatβs been moved to Gandhi this week. Potentially so that Gandhi is in prime position to strike next chapter?
And with that, another thing has changed for Gandhi- the sword. Ordinarily his sword is nearly as big as he is, and itβs in a wooden sheath. Here he has a sword through his waist like Zoro usually wears his. Probably just Oda not caring about sizes.
Top marks to Sai, Leo and Mjosgard for hammering Charloss.
Now, Lili and Imu. Iβll not leap on Imu = Op Op immortal Lili yet, but thereβs a good shout. Depends on the contents of the D note. The Lili silhouette could easily be a slightly more detailed Imu.
For the actual Imu silhouette- Iβve been saying for years thatβs a woman, and that frontal view does nothing to change my mind. Itβs a dress, a long train and a veil. In the panel where Imu speaks the veil looks very clear.
Next chapter, hope to god Oda decides to continue with the Cobra meeting. My big fear is that Sabo only walks in on the aftermath, gets a brief view of Imu then scarpers, and Oda delays showing Imu for another good while. Would like the mystery to be solved now- itβs been a few years, weβre in the endgame, nothing is really gained from silhoutte Imu while revealed Imu can be characterised. But it is Oda.
