Even if the Alliance should win this battle, it shouldn't be an easy victory. We NEED losses. A bittersweet victory makes for a much better story. And I don't care if the skepticism of the current deaths is kind of making these moments less effective, if they're real deaths they'll elevate the...
The moment Oda introduced fights that would last for days was the moment that this became inevitable.
We will probably get 1-2 chapters per fight, but to show the durability and stamina of each character involved in those fights, we have to skip most of it, or else it would get boring.
Only...
Might have been smart writing, but in the story it was still dumb luck. Something that a lot of people criticize every time it happens post-timeskip.
And since when is running out of Haki a moment of defeat? Could be an argument to justify your own bias, but not a good one.
We knew that the...
Well, two examples aren't much to go by. Seems to me like this is more of a technique only applicable when using a weapon, as there is the swinging motion in both instances.
A few panels for each Flying Six fight and we'll finally get to see their Hybrid Forms.
A short back and forth smack talk between Kaido and Yamato and a small flashback. At the end we're getting Yamato's devil fruit reveal before going into a break. :pepehands:
Pretty sure Denjiro and Kawamatsu will encounter Hiyori and maybe Onimaru eventually (as we can be relatively sure that it was her who treated the Scabbards). They have a huge connection to her, and Kawamatsu to Onimaru, so I would be disappointed if that would only come into play after the war...
Maybe one of the most predictable chapters of all time. A lot of hype when I actually wanted to see a longer span of despair and hopelessness.
As it stands now, the alliance will win - all things considered - pretty comfortably, and that's just wasted potential. Sure, a few deaths of the...
Yamato is reminding me more of Brook. Being a Strawhat candidate almost immediately after their introduction (Luffy asked Brook, Yamato made his intention very clear), being stuck on an island for many years, having history with someone the Strawhats already knew (Laboon/Ace) and now facing the...
It's been a thought in my mind for a long time that Kaido might even live after decapitation, so it's never 100% been ZKK for me, even IF he cuts his head off. But that makes things even more complicated. :zosmug:
I think it might be more subconsciously rather than actively thinking about what Oden would do. Which is almost impossible to prove, but it would make sense. Yamato has basically grown up with Oden as his only source of inspiration, like a child reading about superheroes and then imitating to be...
I mean, I love Yamato, but this part in the last chapter doesn't really make sense to me.
Someone who does everything in the sense of "That's what Oden would do" can't be free. If every choice Yamato makes is dictated by the life of someone else, then it's not Yamato's choice at all.
It seems...
Oda gave Jack a lot of things to do, often enough things that are way above his capabilities. Yet Jack never backed down from an impossible challenge, which led to many "failures" - but that didn't stop him from trying to challenge himself again and again.
He isn't the smartest, he isn't the...
Considering that there is at least SOME possibility to Oda setting up these current fights to only exist for the alliance members being defeated and part of the Scabbards actually dying, I wouldn't be surprised if Inuarashi is getting killed by Jack, giving Nekomamushi an even greater reason to...
Probably a Live Floor-centric chapter, so
Neko taking on Perospero
Law joining Kid against Big Mom
Side effects of the new Rumble Ball formula and Sanji helping against Queen
I doubt Marco could heal Zoro while fighting King, but maybe
Tama giving orders to the tamed SMILE users
And at the end...
Not looking forward to it as a fight (except Yamato's devil fruit) but more so as a confrontation between two characters that I care a lot about and that have a deep connection. That's pretty rare, and most big fights that happen are for the sake of someone else. With Yamato this might be partly...
I know, I just don't want to limit myself. Because if we go by the most specific thing, then the Byakko really is the only logical option, considering the Tiger vs Dragon trope. And then speculating would be nonsense.
It probably is the Byakko, but I like to be different, so I'll bring in another guess:
Some type of bear.
Besides the relation between White Tiger and Azure Dragon, there is also one between bears and fish (which is Kaido's actual devil fruit). That connection being the folktale of Kintaro in...
