I was interested by the premise because fake relationships that turn real are kind of my jam.

Still hoping one of yours will turn real?

on the one hand, the crew splitting up is kind of bad, on the other hand the impel down and whitebeard war arcs make amazing use of older characters from past arcs.
Yeah, I'd heard that too.

Really excited to get there now.

the shokugeki no soma scans have a recruitment ad that mentions 'we want girls even though they aren't good for anything (lol)'

Food Wars has an official release now, you shouldn't be reading scans anyway

Dunno if Dressrosa is the longest but it's literally twice as long as it needs to be, has too many characters, and the fights sucked. I'm not sure why Franky and Brook exist, and the crewmembers who don't have haki (Nami, Chopper, ???) get shafted 24/7. Sanji is the worst character now and Oda's art is definitely going in places I dislike wrt spreads, fights, and women.
It sucks to see this happen! I thought OP would stay good while Naruto and Bleach crashed and burned.

Oh yeah, Haki was a real bad idea too

there's nothing to get. it's just a gag. even if you want to super analyze it, the only thing you can really get is 'people don't see what's right in front of them unless it's pointed out to them' or something.

Intriguing episode nonetheless. Curious about that parallel between Utena and Tomiko, since they had the whole shadow plays gag with Tomiko instead too.

i mean even when it had nothing to do with trans people the idea that a crossdresser was trying to 'trap' you or trick you was still hosed up.

I don't think it was ever used in an actual, like, gay panic, they're trying to steal your manhood way. More like, oh no, you saw a picture of a cute crossdresser on the internet, you've fallen into the trap and now have realized your sexuality isn't what you thought it was

I'd argue it started happening earlier before that when the crew got seperated and the meta-narrative started becoming more important. Like the writing was still good, but the spirit of adventure became less prevalent when it switched gears to saving Ace. Not that Oda hasn't tried to make each new location after the reunion interesting, since for all intents and purposes, that was the whole point of Fishmen Island but it somewhat falls flat since each of the New World locations so far feels the need to have some sort of narrative importance, whereas Skypeia is cool island in the sky adventure and doesn't need any justification for itself.

I thought the whole point of Fishman island was just showing off how powerful everybody was now. But now that I say that out loud, that doesn't explain why they spent so much time on fishman racism flahbacks.

I didn't like that arc
