The white bits seem to be thicker and lumpy like fur, so I had thought that the shorts had fur cuffs on the end.

The anime seems to have gone with that interpretation too, especially with the Impel Down outfit.

Nephthys posted:

Luffy being a marine could only ever really last until he meets a Celestial Dragon. I honestly don't know how Garp has lasted as long as he has. I have to assume Sengoku just keeps him as far away from them as possible at all times. Or that Garp is a much shittier person than the story presents him as.

i think the story is pretty consistent with it's portrayal of Garp. he's a good guy in that his intentions are almost universally good, but he is a little bit of a coward in the face of the institutional evils he upholds. we learn a lot about garp during the marineford war - his personal morality is not strong enough for him to defy the status quo. he is instead half-in, half-out, defying orders when he can get away with it but executing them in other circumstances.

luffy represents a more actualized form of garp himself. if luffy thinks something is wrong he just won't do it, and he'd fight against the person who wants to do it. it's all pretty consistent with the "new generation surpassing the old" theme of the story. we're meant to like garp but see that he has failings that luffy's example can help rectify. i imagine in this last leg of the story we will pretty explicitly have a moment/mini-arc about this, where garp takes inspiration from luffy and changes his behavior accordingly

(fwiw this is also a theme outside of just those two. remember in the end of wano, when they thought luffy was dead, momo wanted to capitulate to kaido in an effort to save the lives of the samurai. he's mirroring garp's morality here. yamato, mirroring luffy, screams at him that it's way better to die standing up than to live under kaido's boot, and the story wants the reader to believe this is indeed the correct and good decision.)

do any of you think the gorosei referring to imu as the "creator of the world" is more than just linguistic flourish or a reference to their role in the ascendancy at the time of the war?

i sorta have a feeling that they have some literal responsibility in term of creating the actual world that the story takes place in

who, me?


I think it would kind of undermine the fundamental illegitimacy of Imu's control if they literally created the world. I think "creator of the world" is probably being used to denote that they are the one responsible for putting into place the current societal order.

That fits "creator". Especially if the creation of the red line/mariejois and dividing the world up into the four blues was also his doing. With whatever else that went down 800 years ago.

So I think your definition works.
