There's always been sillyness to the One Piece conflicts, even in an arc that was as hell bent on destroying Luffy's spirit like Marineford where we still had Buggy's antics.

The issue here however isn't comedy, it's the fact that BM's character keeps flip flopping and being used for so much stupid plotlines that it keeps killing the notion that she is supposed to be this unstoppable force of nature and important political power.
But this is literally a part of her character since the beginning of WCI when we got introduced to her hunger pangs.
Everything about Big Mom is related to big personality changes, either by seeing the picture of Mother Carmel broken which completely broke her will and made her bleed from simply falling down to having turned back in to her kid personality when she drowned...
There is always personalities changes and it is a vital part of her character but you are in your right if you don't like the way Oda has written Big Mom and it's fair criticism. But all the things she has been doing makes sense.

Most likely of the age of her friends they day the vanished . Its some kinda of mental disorder i guess , which trigger
But momo and tama are the same age. And she stood there laughing when he got beaten and tortured
Post automatically merged:

momo is + 28 years old.
But he's not. He never aged. Physically and mentally he's is 8
 
I'm entirely sure he's saved them for last because they are central to his conclusion. They are also some of his most serious characters (plus Mihawk), it was clear Kaido and Big mom were going to be these essentric, weird, grandiose characters that will have crazy shit happen to them.

This is why it's good that they are happening first. Kaido will be done this arc. Big Mom 50/50 or at least it leads her to her end.

Saving Shanks, Blackbeard, Akainu, etc for last is a great thing
One Piece Greatness is waiting for us all ...

Kaido and Big Mom are 2 piece of shits who stood between us and that perfection

I need more explaining on this shit from Oda.

Is it due to her conversing with Tama? If she saw Tama being executed, maybe she wouldn't react either. As of now, thats the only thing that doesn't actually make sense.
But we know it's not. Prometheus literally says she has this mode for kids which means he's seen it before.
 
Olin might actually be Big Mom's real personality. She was such a nice Kid til she ate that Nun.
It was implied that it was Streusen's unique way of parenting her, alongside Mother Carmel enabling her instincts and preventing her from feeling regrets for her actions and learning from them, that twisted her personality and caused him to become the cruel and insane woman she is today. Of course with any healthy parent or mentor she would have kept her old personnality.

And it frankly looks like Oda intends to make her revert to her old self by the end of this arc.

Yeah but maybe her kids don't affect her? I know that's dumb shit but it's pretty much the only way to explain why she was mean to pudding. And it doesn't explain her being mean to Momo. Hopefully there is a "logical" (by one piece standards) explanation from Prometheus this chapter so we aren't talking about this for 2 weeks
