Just want to touch on this.
This isn't a Post TS thing.
This hasn't happened since East Blue.
Nami has not drawn a map on screen since the Arlong arc. Same goes for Sanji and asking about All Blue.
Like Nami still talks about the weather and Sanji still clearly cooks... but neither of those...
I dunno how y'all go any agenda pushing with regards to a translation fuck up considering for the last 3 weeks japan was arguing if Hiyuki was a man or a woman until the editor in their tweet actually confirmed it.
This seems like nothing but translation fuck ups. Like how TCB incorrectly...
Saturn is very clearly the main villain and that's not changed since Kuma's punch.
He's still ordering the Marines, still targetting everyone, still ordering Kizaru. He's not been incapacitated in any fashion.
One, it'd make Garp Redundant as a bargaining chip to mobilize the Marines.
Two, narratively Saturn as a hostage provides no empathy nor dynamic to draw from.
Core villain of this entire arc with no regard for his subordinates and a member of a large disinterested group is supposed to be who...
I don't see how this is any different than when
Luffy got locked up in a cage in Orange Town
Almost got beheaded in Logue Town
Had the whole Water Luffy sequence in Alabasta
Got eaten by a snake for most of Skypeia
Got stuck in a wall during Water 7
Tied up during Fishman Island
Like...
Oh man, luffy beats a guy but ends up in a worse shape than the guy he beat, but is still ostensibly the winner in the narrative's eye.
That certain has never happened before. Nope, note once.
I'm sorry, did we time travel back to 2008?
Cause last I checked, we aren't in Sabaody.
Is Smoker the arc villain of Punk Hazard cause he was a problem back at Logue Town?
Where?
Post the panels within this arc where Kizaru has the same level of gravitas towards the overall proceedings of Egghead as lucci does within Water 7 and Enis Lobby.
should be super easy if he's the arc villain to come up with several of these
Yeah, sure. Let's pretend Spandam is the central villain of the Ennis Lobby/Water 7 arc.
Not lucci, who the entire forces' power is cnetralized upon, Who everyone treats as the end all be all for CP9's overwhelming power. Who is the guiding force during the night of the attempted assasination...
Luffy's final fight in every arc is the most thematically and central villain to that arc's plot.
That is not Kizaru.
Unless Kizaru suddenly gets a million bonus points in evil, Luffy's gonna be beating on Saturn.
Context clues rather clearly point to the other direction.
Like I don't doubt Luffy's beating Saturn, but the way Saturn worded everything is that seeing Luffy as Nika would not ruin Bonney's ability
A scene of Vivi in front of the Wapol hole transitioning into the scene of Bonney in front of Kuma's memory is not foreshadowing.
Or do all the previous transitions ahead of that one count as foreshadowing too? Are Koby, Law, Kidd and Sabo also involved? Cause the sequence doesn't start with Vivi.
