- Would have finished off Lucci - Might have had a confrontation with Mars since he was heading there. Likely would not have escalated into a fight since Mars' priority at that point was the broadcast and Zoro surely would understand that escaping was the right move - Would get lost trying to...

Clearly they should have just put Lucci back in his sea stone cuffs after the whole Seraphim debacle.

This has honestly been a huge problem with this climax. This escape has only been possible through the supporting cast's sacrifices including the individuals the SHs explicitly set out to protect through the whole thing. Yet you can barely feel the weight of their failure here with how much...

Him saying saying that Joyboy was the one who wanted the ancient weapons to go to future generations actually help their narrative too.

Wonder what the circumstances were that led to Clover's brother getting killed. With figures like Garp and Saul being pretty well known Ds for decades, it never really felt like the WG was out hunting the lineages down.

Might be just me but art looks quite a bit better than the last few chapters.

From Atlas' little scene this chapter, I think her and Lilith are about to get off the escape ships to prevent York from tracking them.

Kinda funny how a "help the Vegapunks escape" mission turned into the Punks sacrificing themselves left and right for the Straw Hats to get away.

Stussy might save him before dipping. 1719494587 Oh shit I forgot

I think it was sensible to expect some kind of story arc for Tashigi back in Loguetown based on the confrontation with Zoro and the Kuina parallels. I think it was still reasonable to imagine her playing some kind of role after Alabasta when she reaffirmed her desire to become stronger so that...

What we got here were pretty straight forward dashes coupled with nicely done and interesting choreography. Nothing comparable to the flying bricks smashing into one another that some Wano sequences devolved into. This is shonen anime. Some level of stylization and exaggeration is expected and...

That S-Hawk sequence was absolutely fantastic. No bullshit aura and over the top fighter jet movement. Grounded and fast paced choreography is all we need for a truly intense action scene. Love how Zoro had to juggle Kaku around during the entire exchange while dodging and the background music...

This honestly. Luffy's basic character already nicely stood for every narrative theme and message that this whole Nika thing is trying to push. He's been going around liberating the oppressed, bringing smiles while goofing around, pushing people to fight for their dreams and all that stuff...

The so called "Great debate". Good times...

Cluttered pages have been a problem since at least Dressrosa in my opinion, things just got worse and worse as the manga went on. The insistence on adding more plotlines and characters than one can reasonably cover in one arc might be partly to blame. Separate scenes are thrown haphazardly in...

Think I would go with this: 1. Kuma 2. Jinbei 3. Law 4. Mihawk 5. Hancock 6. Buggy 7. Moria 8. Crocodile 9. Doflamingo 10. Teach Kuma and Jinbei are straight up heroic figures who have dedicated their lives to genuinely good causes. Both of them have shown great selflessness and loyalty. Kind...

No future sight Kaido was completely pinned in place by Snakeman's attacks barely able to perceive where the punches were even coming from. Future sight Kaido outright blitzed his way past that same move without getting touched and caught Luffy before he could do anything about it. The...

Still can't wrap my head around how Oda, the guy who always portrays his protagonists as people who would put their friends above their own dreams if necessary, came up with this shit while writing a character the audience is supposed to root for... The fact that he would lampshade it in a...

They will defect sooner or later. With the plot kinda heading towards the direction of Luffy/Joyboy being framed as the great evil determined to reinitiate an apocalyptic war, I am inclined to say "later" though. Don't think it will be a coup in any case. Whatever makes the marines turn against...
