hatty posted:still think it’s funny that Big Mom went from being potato shaped as a kid to being a smoke show in her thirties and then reverts back to a potato when she hits her fifties. Lady has weird genetics Oda has a thing where people who lose their way/lose hope/suffer in some way, tend to get gonky, it's not exclusively like that but checking Shakky vs Elder Nyon, or the best example is the Good End/Bad End Nami's  It's not that old people become ugly, but... okay so Roald Dahl wrote once  And it feels like Oda subscribes to this, why does Stussy look so ugly? Because Stussy is a bad future. The future where Rocks dies and the Rocks pirates fall apart, since well, imagine if Luffy died and the Strawhats were left in a world without him, they'd probably all become dark of heart. Now you can say this is "Beauty equals goodness" but no, we've seen women who aren't traditionally beautiful who are good people, but, if we specifically talk about Big Mum, a terror who finds purpose with the Rocks pirates and grows with them, to losing them and going on her own again.

Big Mom looks a lot happier/healthier/friendlier when she has amnesia too, or is having a good time with Kaido. So I'm gonna say I agree with some of that thought. You can see the change in her face from violent matriarch to jovial grandma.

Bonney being a glutton and never stopping eating made a lot of sense given her powers (and also because it's a common trope of comics that some people just eat a shitload of food!) but there's something to be said for the notion that she was probably brought up with the mindset that you NEVER waste food and you should always eat your fill

I feel like Kuma and Ginney setting up shop in a church is a roundabout way to explain Kuma's vague priest aesthetic and his bible.

Silver2195 posted:Remember that Big Mom already withdrew her soul fragment from Zeus; Zeus survived by merging with the Climate Tact. So Zeus's existence is independent of Big Mom now. She didn't remove her soul fragment from Zeus, he was just able to escape using the thunder ball trail that Nami left behind. Big Mom has no clue that Zeus is still alive while Nami stole her greatest powerup by complete accident.

DeadBonesBrook posted:Kind of disappointed that we got to the Fireworks Factory, only to cut away just as things got exciting. I'm looking forward to learning more about Kuma's backstory, but it felt like we just did a speedrun of that part of the flashback. I hope we get more soon (possibly through Saturn's recollection or Bonney remembering Kuma's memories she saw) as I was hyped throughout Break week for a Rocks/Roger/Garp/Royal Knights showdown, only for it to be skipped. On one hand I definitely wish we got to see more of it, on the other hand I like that we got to see the parts that were the most important to Kuma. Everyone in the audience was hyped to see all the Big Names of the past generation go at it while they were in their prime, but to Kuma none of those names mattered. It was just a violent, destructive conflict that claimed the lives of almost everyone around him, but where he found an opportunity to free himself and save many others as well. It's a good way to remind people that they aren't fighting just for the sake of fighting, there are lives at stake being fought over.

There is a follow up with Big Mom and Zeus at Onigashima where Zeus loses her soul fragment and survives by merging with the Climatact. I.e both are true.

Still love the bit where Zeus asks for a new name he’s a new life form, only to just reject Nami’s horrible/amazing name (Fluff/Cotton) without even acknowledging it.

I have a hard time imagining any of the fruits at god valley are the treasure stolen from pirate island. it certainly wouldnt be the gum gum, because the elders were looking for it for generations. roger saying something about the last few years being tough for him makes me think its...ace's mum? or something we havent even had hinted at yet? one piece will run for another twenty years.

Another fun theory from the reddit: someone noticed that Oda keeps drawing Rock's flag with a single white dot in the left eye. Maaaaaybe a hint that Rocks is the eye-patch wearing fella. There's also the awakened fruit spiral in the hair.

There's also the very long-running theory about the "missing left eye" of Jaya/Skypeia being Laugh Tale. This is only gonna add fuel to that lol.

"Left eyes matter" is a running theme for sure. The whole Monkey family tree that we know of all has decorations or scars around their left eye. Shanks, Zoro do too.

Imagine how crazy its post-timeskip equivalent will be The monologue going over all the insane abuse he took offscreen, combined with knowing he was very much not well, really does sell how much of a monster he must have been in his prime. And how much more impressive that is knowing that he’s just a guy with a strong fruit, compared to Big Mom being stronger than most giants as a toddler and Kaido being a super tough ogre man. Goddamn was Whitebeard cool.

Right here dude https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSsFx6x2mYU As Hera bit into Zeus, he was pressed into the clima-tact from the pressure, he was never actually eaten, no idea where you're getting this 'lose her soul fragment' info from. Zeus is as powerful as he is because he comes from BM's soul directly, none of the other homies she's created come nearly as close to that power.
