At the beginning of the flashback, we learned Kuma always wanted Nika to save him. Now we know he's the one always the one who is saving Nika. Kuma is a real hero of heroes.

I don't think Luffy's ever going to deliberately murder someone because he's a liberator. He enables other people to seek and find justice. If someone needs to die, that's up to the people he's helping, not him. If someone's going to ice Saturn, it's probably going to be Bonney and/or Bart - he'll just soften the big guy up first.

And frankly it should be one of them

We should be getting a leak next week but will have to wait a long time for the next chapter. I really hope we come out of the flashback with Bonney landing a real hit on Saturn using Distorted Future, Luffy recovering and dealing with the situation, or Kuma landing out of nowhere to deal with Saturn.

Kuma's entire reasoning for not marrying Ginny was because he didn't want to burden her with continuing his Buccaneer lineage, no way in hell they're loving.

Watched One Piece Film Red last night. The fights were a lot of fun and the music was good and there were some fun moments of fanservice like Usopp and Yasopp having an actual interaction but the plot felt a bit messy tbqh. I think they were trying to squeeze in too many ideas in a short period of time while also making room for all the musical segments. Tota Musica was really weird and overly-convenient as a plot device. Those 10 seconds of animated Gear 5 were probably a lot more exciting when the movie first came out lol.

Tot Musica shouldn't have been a part of the film at all, and instead Oda should have reworked the plot to just have Uta be the final villain, even though that would require a lot of rewriting for Uta's entire backstory. It just feels like a cheap copout.

I'm all for erring on the side of caution with spoiler tags, but I feel like hiding the existence of 2021 Game of the Year nominee Psychonauts 2 is a bit much.

I don't think double fine games are as popular as ya think Psychonauts is super popular with devs and folks in and around game dev mostly. But it has limits. The students in my super successful University bachelors in game design haven’t heard of Myst let alone Psychonauts, visual novels, policenauts, colecovision, 9/11, gamergate, EverQuest, or any game made before they were 10 (so think about 8 years ago). Past like 25, it starts to improve but even when those folks are graduating, the likelihood they’ve heard of any of those games is pretty much 0.

Gear 5 Luffy is going to punch the robotics outta Kuma

Infinitum posted:Gear 5 Luffy is going to punch the robotics outta Kuma It seems incredibly unlikely to happen but god, now I'm just imagining punching the electronics and bomb out of him, they end up in Saturn's hands, and we get a tiny "mother!" sign before it all explodes and covers him in soot, KOed. I want every Gear 5 event to be as Tom and Jerry as possible.

I like that my goofy cartoon rubber man doesn't kill people

i have a feeling we will eventually learn that kuma, too, inherited some much more ancient will.

Things like Tot Musica and the Florian Triangle shadows serve to remind the reader that things in the once piece world are weird and don't need an explanation. Sometimes your childhood friend gets possessed by a music demon. It's fine.

I think mainly it's just that the way it was introduced and explained ended up being kinda clunky because the movie was trying to keep the "Is Shanks a baddie? " fake-out going.

I've got a lot of thoughts after reading that last chapter, but the only one I can clearly articulate is...gently caress, man, I just feel hollow.

I could see a few people that Luffy would deliberately murder, like Akainu. The god of liberation can also have his own personal poo poo to deal with. Some people just gently caress up that bad. Edit: I doubt Luffy actually does, because that's what Sabo and Garp are for. However, it's important to remember that while Kuma and other members of the religion of Nika may believe in selfless liberation of everyone, Luffy is still an inherently selfish dude. He's not out to set everyone free, he's out to be free and it just happens that people fettering others happen to try and fetter him as well. He's not a hero, he's just a friendly guy who took a bite of gum-gum. Gyges fucked around with this message at 08:03 on Dec 24, 2023 |

The method matters a lot here too: I think Luffy could like punch Akainu so hard he flies into the ocean or whatever, I can’t see him grabbing him with his giant Nika hand and twisting his head off or whatever

I think it's more likely that Sabo fights/kills Akainu than Luffy
|
# ? Dec 24, 2023 08:26 |
|
That or they end up in some situation where Akainu would survive if he accepted Luffy's help but refuses. Or maybe Kuzan or Garp takes him out in a mutual kill.

I feel like aramamki and issho were designed to fight Sanji and Zoro respectively and oda mention a VA (chaton) that was up for the admiral position who could replace borsalino so idk.

Honestly I could see Borsalino finally going 'oh gently caress this' and either defecting/retiring/getting killed after this Arc too.
