I think the part that he's just an okama without drawing attention to it outside of one or two panels with him as a girl is great too.

I know it's not intended to be a serious article, but Kenshin didn't fight Fuji. His master Hiko Seijurô did.

I thought the same thing as I was reading that article, I had to stop and come back to this thread to see if anyone had posted about that error.

And then I realized: it's me. I'm the one being made fun of in this faux-news article.

Then I saw the Brotherhood being a sequel part at the end, and I am lost.

Hey guess what

It took the manga 12 chapters to get to that point

I think you're just mad 'cause you're single.
And in a sane universe one chapter of manga equals about 8 minutes of anime, not 22.

The real Pokemon begins here
There's no direct correlation between good pacing in an anime and a manga because animation is paced by time while manga is paced by space. Things that take less space but more time (like dialog) will usually go faster in a manga but stuff that takes more space and less time (like action sequences) will generally go faster in an anime. If a chapter is entirely exposition then an anime episode could feel well paced just by adapting that for 20 minutes.

Oda never does that because he's good at his job so the anime is always way too slow

Wow it's amazing how the Korean and English translations go completely different directions for this panel despite using similar words.



The Korean version, on the other hand, goes (very roughly) something like this.

"You're no joke, Straw Hat!"
"You don't look like you spent the entire night fighting Big Brother Cracker!"
"The Chess Soldiers aren't weak but you crushed them like trash!"

Like, is it a matter of interpretation or something?

Given that later on they grumble about how many of their chess soldiers they lost I think the Korean translation is more accurate.

Interpretation and confusion over subject/object in the text, I'd assume.

I like that Big Mom is shown as being more nuanced than just "will rampage for food." And in just a few panels I'm excited to see what happens with Pedro and Brook. Good to see Pedro wasn't a double agent as previously speculated when he disappeared.

I kind of want the narrative to jump forward so Brooke and Pedro can do the cool recap that shows exactly how they pulled the heist off.

And then as the Straw Hats are sailing off Big Mom drops her Vinsmoke brand coffee mug.

That was the best loving chapter and I hope every fight in the future is on the epic scale of Luffy fighting Cracker for an entire night followed by multiple devil fruit users.

Also forseeing the Smoothie fighting Brook and being pissed off that he is the one man incapable of being made a smoothie, than the fight ends really perverted somehow. Also headcanon is Smoothie she was drinking is just straight up blood with no pulp

Edit: Also interested in seeing if Luffy will be forced off the spot or not

i love the range of expression big mom shows. oda did a great job of making her morally ambiguous in alignment with the strawhats.

Man, how long have Bropper and Carrot been running from Brulee? Oda is clearly stalling until they can come crashing out at the worst possible moment, but it's been at least twelve hours and neither of them have Luffy's stamina.

Hasn't it been longer? They got trapped before Luffy's fight with Cracker.

Yeah there is no way Luffy lets this end up how Sanji is envisioning it. He would legit rather die. He said as much last chapter.
