    General & Others Next Strawhat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

    I read it at last, and Carrot's complete absence is the weirdest thing to me. Oda seems intent on burying her, which either means he does plan on giving her a moment to rise up, or he just wants us to forget about her. I keep thinking about what's the point Oda wanted to make with Carrot. He...

    I hear you. I need to see that too. It's just that I'm expecting we will see that, since she didn't get the revenge she was after and is instead moving to another part of the battle. Again, Pedro didn't die just so Carrot could fail at avenging him and not accomplish anything. There's a reason...

    Despite my personal feelings, I can accept something like that as entirely possible, in the same way that I can accept Yamato may end up being the one to join. But I have my doubts that Carrot's being led that way, specifically because of Pedro's death. It's such a vital part of her character...

    Been a while, had some thoughts. Denjiro proved that Oda doesn't need an excuse to stick a character where he wants them, whether or not he shows how they get there. And yet, small as her appearances have been, Oda has taken the time this whole raid to show where Carrot is, where she's been...

    She said no, can't be read that way.

    I'll have to ask her tomorrow if that's an alternate meaning, but she said the literal meaning was "not knowing the night".

    I feel like it's not too much to ask to properly credit my wife, who took the time to translate the label and find that info. And in case anyone is curious, the phrase is 不知夜月 / Izayoizuki, the original Japanese article is here: https://onepiece-log.com/blog-entry-2301.html And the label is...

    General & Others Next Strawhat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

    There's a very simple reason for this, and it may seem obvious but bear with me: he's only mentioning his fellow crew members, and Carrot, as you said, is not one. Chopper has most certainly not lost any love for Carrot, that connection didn't just vanish or become unimportant to him. However...

    My wife says "niko" is the normal kind of smile, "nika" is used more deviously, scheming, something up one's sleeve.

    Thank you for reaching out to me all this time. Part of the reason I don't come around much is that I'm burnt out on arguing, there's just not much for me to say lately. It has given me time to focus elsewhere in my life that I've appreciated, and I hope it'll help you as well. Take care.

    General & Others Next Strawhat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

    Yes, it's weird that she is content, that's what I'm getting at. She hasn't moved forward in anything, which is specifically what Pedro told her to do. He wanted to bring the dawn, which is a mission a lot bigger than Perospero's defeat, or even Kaido's, as he told Luffy before they started...

    Whether Carrot goes home or not has absolutely nothing to do with where Zunesha happens to be. It's only a good thing that the elephant's here now, since whatever it does might be the kick in the pants Carrot needs to get her head back in the game.

    My wife translated the last two pages, but they line up pretty much exactly with redon's. If there's something else in particular need of translation and no one has gotten to it by tomorrow morning, she can take another look.

    General & Others Next Strawhat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

    My thoughts are largely the same as they have been: I'm waiting to to see what, if anything, Carrot is going to do to follow Pedro's will. If she sits out the rest of this battle, I won't argue anymore. But as perfect as Yamato seemingly is, not even flat out declaring he will join Luffy is...

    General & Others Next Strawhat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

    So Peros is out, and while I would have liked Carrot to have played a bigger part in his defeat, it's as I've said before: revenge is not meant to be her main purpose here. So while Peros needed to be taken down, it didn't have to be Carrot herself doing it. Would have been nice, but not...

    He means Carrot's in a different, smaller spot than before. All it reflects is their current positions. Jinbe disappeared from it for volumes at a time during both of his absences, so I wouldn't put much stock into it.

    Taiseh: I always pretend to use Kamusari (Divine Departure) and Tougenshirataki (Paradise Waterfall) at kindergarten. Can I be strong? Oda: Wah!! Thud... GASP!! Hey now! Be careful not to use Haoshoku so much!
