Disagree. The first few chapters (only 3) being contained in the Lego room was odd, but these twists are done purposefully. Oda probably didn't want the reader to see Elbaf immediately, and instead slowly get introduced to the scope of where they are. Additionally, these set ups tend to have...

Notes on this week's chapter Page 1: 18 chapters in and nothing of interest has happened in Yamato's cover story. Though it is very nice to see Speed again Page 2: The questions Luffy is asking are those Oda assumes the reader might be asking, and will probably be answered in this arc. So focus...

Interesting, but unlikely. The point about Laugh Tale being Joyboy's birth and resting place is intriguing though, as Roger was born and executed in the same place, Logue Town

First read through, I was sure the masked figure was Loki, but on a second reread, it seems this character is female based on the high heels. Might be a sister or mother of Loki. There is probably some familial relationship, since Loki is bound to be a pivotal character in this arc. Whatever...

Reading this panel, I was thinking "wow, the snake and crow remind me of Ju Peter and Mars, I wonder if any other Gorosei are represented. I see the rats and I remember Garling is an elder now

Zeus showing up now might be a big deal. Zeus has been around since early in Big Mom's pirate career, so before the failed marriage with Loki. The Giants might recognize Zeus, but the consequences of that are yet to be seen

Not doing a thorough analysis, but there are some lingering questions with this chapter: Who moved the Straw Hats from the Giant Pirates' boat to Elbaf? Why did Nami only wake up now? Were the Straw Hats on Elbaf purposely separated? Is this chapter's setting on another rung/realm of the Adam...

A pirate has fallen into the river in Lego City

Laffitte shows up Instant 5 star

Blackbeard was introduced as a more dynamic foil to Luffy than Imu was. Imu represents the power structure that Luffy must overturn, but that creates a void of power for what the world should be. Blackbeard's world is likely a continuation of tyranny, while Luffy's is genuine freedom...

Chapter analysis Cover page: Yawn, who cares. Yamato is a waste of space. 13 volumes and jack (character who might be in this cover story) shit has happened! Was the carpenter introduced during Wano? Probably, but does anyone remember the 5 trillion faceless nobodies from Wano? Just show us the...

y'all focusing on haki bullshit and not the missed emotional beats with Kuma...

only thing giving me any hope is that Saturn and Emeth's clash has yet to be resolved other than that, what the fuck was the point of this chapter?

The only BM pirates at Wano were Big Mom and Perospero. Perospero was mostly a background character in WCI, and Big Mom was only in Wano to raise stakes and give Law and Kid something to do. Even as WCI was serializing, it was clear Big Mom's arc would extend beyond that arc because she was an...
