Whitebeard: needs to be kept on life support, is old as gently caress and dying, takes over 500 stabs/shots/magic punches to finally take him down -- and dies standing
Ace: one melty punch

the fish queens plan doesnt get less stupid with more info, right? Like being "ok lets move everyone out of Constantinople and move into the Levant, so we can become best friends with the Caliph" or something even dumber I can't make a metaphor for

I think they're talking about Otohime?

yeah her. I guess the part about finding a place to colonize gets sidestepped since the plan seems to be "ask the world nobles/world summit to nicely give them some terra nullis" but uh why are you relying on the goodwill of the people mass enslaving you again? very unserious governance

Her plan was to coexist and join the World Government. They have no plans to actually move everyone out of Fishman Island, afaik?

I'm pretty sure her plan was to move everyone to the surface, or at least unless im incredibly dull or the dub really rewrote poo poo, b/c they said it like dozens of times? From what I can tell it was literally "we're scared of each other bc we're down here and we're up there, if we go up to where the cool sun is and become neighbors with regular exposure we'll bridge the gap between races :)" which is amazingly naieve even for one piece. Coexisting/joining the world government was step one to fully integrating with the surface world as part of it, as I understood

Franky X Robin is just one of those ships that I just don't get at all. They're just so completely different and non-compatable. Even if Robin grabbing his balls back at Water 7 grants way more actual physical evidence for it that 99.995% of all ships.

As far as inter-Strawhat romance goes, I'd say maybe Robin X Nami might make sense. Otherwise, that's just a whole lot of everyone taking very long bathroom trips.

Franky is a cyborg, he can modify himself to be compatable with anyone

anyways in the bird cage part of delarosa arc, honestly new world/time skip is pretty eh so far. Some good gags (hello baby man) but the main arcs are eh, dont care about most of the new secondary chars. Need less giant tiddies and more silly looking ppl

god usopp was an incredible gag tho

when frankie doesnt have a fat rear end, all the characters should be looking around and going "why doesnt frankie have a fat rear end"

anyways was watching not-spain arc, fell asleep at the cat cage and woke up and its like 50 episodes later and random secondary characters are still dueling and having the same flashback cuts. think its time for a break

also also lol @ the blind admiral being all "gently caress we have to protect the civvies at all costs #1 priority" and then just getting bored and casting loving Meteor on the city

Zoro's swordmaster definitely "accidentally" killed his daughter for trying to break gender norms, right? The framing of her breaking into the adult convo, him being "shut the gently caress up you're a girl" smash cut to "and then she fell down some stairs and died" paired with his vaguely sinister vibes afterwards and discomfort with her as a topic w.r.t. zoro all feel like they point to it?

yeah I mean obviously, but its not like doflamingo ever really played at anything but. Sincerely caring about casualties while also opening by making the island look like the moon or dropping metors is just weird. like drat man, people were still picking through that rubble and poo poo, its like 48 hours after the bird cage

yeah I mean having just finished it, Wano definitely felt like it needed an extra chapter and a half of wind down, going straight to the obligatory Shanks cameo into loving off felt a bit whiplash -- though honestly typing it out im pretty hype to be on the train for fast moving anything-can-happen One Piece.

also my new theory for the birdcage is that no one could cut it because Doflamingo was just completely off his rocker with being a sick nasty revenge boi. I guess Admiral lad could've cutted it at the last second but he had his whole "i need luffy to win/fix this in my stead" thing going on

also whitebeard jr is 100% an early MADS clone and showing up in this arc

when will we learn religns bounty
