Big ups to both Apoo and Kidd for showing off their powers 12 years ago and then finally coming back and doing the exact same thing with them.

His power does seem to fall more in the beatbox category rather than the scratching category. Even if he does like to use turntables.

I mean, I think that's the point. They did this poo poo 12 years ago. We think about it all the time and remember it all vividly, but Apoo especially kind of needs to be reintroduced at this point with his crazy powers.

If that's the end of Apoo, I'll be unimpressed as well, but for now I trust that this is a familiar opening salvo in an actual fight that will happen.

It's kind of too bad that it looks like it'll be Kidd's fight though. It would have been fun to see Luffy or Zoro (or Brook) figuring out his sound powers. Kidd probably knows a bit about how they work already.

In fairness Apoo's power 12 years ago is to this day the only time someone has gotten anything resembling a hit on Kizaru, makes sense to break it out on people who aren't made of photons.

Baths are nice every once in a while.

After years of only showering, I used the bath while visiting Japan and it was very relaxing to just sit there in warm waters.

Plus, not all ships are super accomodating like the Sunny Go, so presumably you can't even get a decent shower in some boats. Which would make the prospect of a nice bath all the more appealing after a voyage, especially if not everyone washes daily. Pretty sure only Nami, Robin, and Chopper (and maybe Sanji?) wash daily among the Straw Hats.

EDIT: Oh, Chopper is only once every three days, and the daily washers are Nami, Robin, and Sanji.

Thought Chopper would have bathed daily given his status as a doctor.

SECOND EDIT: On the other hand, Chopper was originally an animal, so maybe constant bathing isn't good for his fur and whatnot.

In the meantime I have achieved one of my goals and convinced some friends of mine who are behind on One Piece (and one of whom has never read it) to start a One Piece Book Club to catch up to it. I am very excited.

Any time chopper has gotten to do some doctoring it’s implied he’s scrubbed up as best he can.

Nami and Robin let him bathe with them, because he has no attraction to humans (being a reindeer), so it's not like he cares about peeping, iirc. I don't remember where I read that, though

I was trying to look up where Chopper said it and found a picture of Zoro scrubbing Chopper when they were in the royal baths, so it's probably a duty the whole crew shares.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

There's a scene in the manga where Chopper is bathing with Nami and Robin and then Nami electrifies Sanji for trynna peep I think.

Chopper originally thinks her thundercloud is like cotton candy.

It's even funnier if you imagine he's terrible at them, but just enjoys playing and is a good sport about always losing.
