they've done plenty of stage shows before and they usually just have things like luffy's punch going behind a pillar so it can be extended etc. idk how that sort of thing translates to an ice show though

On Ice is a weird title for the next movie, but I'm sure the animation will look incredibly realistic!

I was watching the Critical Role cast trying not to sing along to songs for the React channel on YouTube. When they got to the song What's Going On? by 4 Non Blonds, my friends and I were pointing at the screen and hollering like apes at a monolith.

Just popping in to say that I just now finished the Dressrosa saga. Such an incredible finale and enjoyable read, I’m beaming. Oda is supernaturally gifted at keeping all these characters and events in order while giving us clear and entertaining moment-to-moment action. Plot-wise, this arc’s climax was similar to Alabasta in many ways, but the sheer volume of new characters, environmental complexity, and added lore injected wherever possible shows how much Oda has grown as a storyteller since then. So excited to see what’s coming, yet bittersweet to know I’m nearing the home stretch.

the bird cage sucks

Because I would rather be positive: All the gladiator side characters in Dressrossa were so much fun. I know at the time some people were down on how much time was spent with them, but Oda just going absolutely crazy with whatever kind of wacky fighter popped into his head was the best part of that arc, and the fact that so many are promising to stick around after is fantastic. But other aspects of that arc aren't as well received for more understandable reasons. It's probably better reading it all in one go than it was to read weekly.

Scrap Dragon posted:I imagine that the Bird Cage did suck to read week-to-week, but as someone that read it archivally it was excellent This has basically been my take on almost every post-timeskip arc. However good the highs are, or rough the lows can be; they're all just better when you can read them via archive and appreciate a pace that isn't one chapter a week or so. When one piece is finally finished in fifty years I look forward to spending a million dollars on whatever fancy rear end collected edition they manage to work up and reading it until I die.

I reread a big chunk of the manga a few years back and I have to say, most of it works better in binge format but Birdcage still sucks, it sucks so bad. I’m happy for all of you that could enjoy it though.

I read the birdcage after the fact and really dug it as a device to further hammer home just how hosed up Doflamingo is, my only actual issue with Dressrosa (apart from Rebecca's ridiculous outfit) is that even with the benefit of not having to wait week to week for chapters, it's still an extremely long story and I couldn't quite believe when I'd get to the end of another volume and it still wasn't over. Ironically, (post Dressrosa stuff) I had the opposite problem with Wano where because I was reading it week to week, even though I knew it had been going a long time it didn't feel as long as Dressrosa did. It ran for four years! And that's not counting all the stuff with Kin'emon and Momnosuke that starts in Punk Hazard and runs through Zou! With Whole Cake Island stuffed between Zou and Wano! Edit: Spoilering just in case whoever is currently reading doesn't want any spoilers!

Bird cage is kinda uninteresting and awkward a plot conceit but don't get why it became the thing to point to for "why Dressrosa is bad".

The main problem for me with Dressrosa is that Luffy kept getting sent all the way back to 1-1 to climb the plateau, super fuckin frustrating when he ultimately just ended up wrecking Doflamingo in a fight anyways. Birdcage was just the set-dressing around that fight having to take much longer than it needed to. Cool arc regardless.

I only ever had 2 problems with Dressrosa - 2 many concurrent subplots. The Dwarves could have been subbed out completely and you really wouldn't miss them, not that they're bad characters, and you could have just had Dressrosa family members held hostage instead. - Birdcage was insanely OP and couldn't be countered in any way shape or form once it was activated, and seemed to have very little stamina drain on Don Flamingo.

Something that comes up a lot is you could easily make it a lot better by just having Zoro easily cut it but then it regrows, and showing it draining a little bit of Dofly's stamina, like bare minimum a few sweat drops on his face and a one-off comment would help a lot. As is it's just not believable and comes off as a plain bullshit power.

Dressrosa is also very very good because Usopp remains best Straw Hat Should be illegal to have that many good reaction faces in one arc

I mean, I was there reading it weekly and while I'm not the biggest fan of late Dressrosa my issues weren't primarily with the bird cage. It was more like "Man, this is getting real long" or "Kyros is super boring, I don't care about this fight". I totally get why people weren't fans but its still sorta weird to me that the bird cage is what people always point to as the big issue, even if it was a dumb way to force a time limit on the arc.

it's the last section of an already very drawn-out arc, so it symbolises the pacing issues while also being a weird bullshit power

Dressrosa is a problem-littered arc that lasts three years and only has a handful of characters that really pull their weight in making you care about them. The great stuff like Law's flashback, Bellamy's character arc, God Usopp, and Doflamingo being the best villain since Crocodile and Enel still really help, but the bad parts like Rebecca's uselessness, the generally weird treatment women get this arc, the narrative recycling from Alabasta, Sabo eating Ace's fruit and becoming his narrative replacement, and Fujitora doing next to nothing the whole arc still mean nobody's eager to revisit it.

The Bird Cage was also a symptom of Don Flamingo having a weird power set that just came up with new abilities as the plot demanded.

The power would have made more sense if cutting it made it shrink quicker Same end result in having to knock Mingo out, and trying to slow is down, but it makes more 'logical' sense. Ability was overpowered AF
