Sub Harrison posted:Was pudding's plan to loving murder all the Vinsmokes for Sanji? That's a totally reasonable guess. Option B is that she got herself into trouble as part of her plan to wreck the marriage, and Reiju decided to keep up her 'sibling of the year' award streak by trying to help her out.

I think Big Mom can do more to Brook than you all seem to think. Just because he can manipulate souls placed in foreign bodies doesn't mean he will have the same effect on the one moving the souls.

There's a chance Brook already has what he needs. Being captured is fine if he can smuggle it out without detection.

I'm prepping myself for a double dose of Enel face when the 2 people who's powers won't work on Brook go up against him. In the end they will probably still overpower him by brute strength alone. But the first 2 attacks will be amazing.

Big Mom could have set up the Germa Kingdom marrying one of her most deadliest daughters in case for insurance if they ever step out of line. Someone strong enough to defeat the Eyebrow siblings

Someone strong enough to defeat the Eyebrow siblings Personally I like to think the Germa have a highly inflated sense of their own worth and power. Sanji could/will stomp them all by himself, there's lots of people they can't handle. Being the hereditary nobility of North Blue ain't poo poo in the Grand Line, let alone in the deep end of the New World. So Pudding is actually one of the weakest of Big Mom's kids, but she can still kill Germa without breaking a sweat.

So you're saying Oda wasted innumerable panels setting up the Germa as a strong force and a major player only to turn them around as a plot device for Big Mom to use in the future at some unknown point? The only time in the story that Oda has allowed Luffy to fail was when it was useful to bump his power level, and that was precipitated by great loss. The SHs losing significant crew members here to advance some greater plot line doesn't seem likely, I don't see how that theory would be plausible.

The SHs losing significant crew members here to advance some greater plot line doesn't seem likely, I don't see how that theory would be plausible. That's not what I'm saying at all. I don't think there is a greater plotline. Germa and Big Mom won't be relevant after this arc because Luffy will have destroyed them. Germa are strong - as a surprise military force, as scientists, as political players in the world. These are all things Big Mom values. I was giving a reason for why Big Mom would value the even though Germa they aren't as strong as New World factions, and that's all. Because its a fact that she values the Germa a lot, otherwise this marriage wouldn't be such a big deal. But none of the strengths the Germa have put them on the level of Luffy or Sanji, the strongest two members of the Strawhats in Totland, and they're going to be destroyed here as if they were nobodies, because in the grand scheme of things, they are not important. Big Mom values the Germa, but she values them for reasons Luffy and the Strawhats do not care about at all, so they're going to be irrelevant after this all comes crashing down. gnome7 fucked around with this message at 09:35 on Dec 9, 2016 |

I dont think that Luffy is going to beat big mom this arc. Though the germa are going to get violent facial reconstructive trauma. But they are both going to learn a deeply painful lesson on why not to treat family and friends like pawns. Honestly though I hope this arc closes out with Sanji calling a monumentally pissed off big mom as Mr. Prince. Just to further piss her off.

man sometimes u guys sound like u have no idea what shonen manga is. the germa big boys are not going to be weaklings comparatively or otherwise. they'll be very strong in their own right, i will bet one billion dollars that the situation is not "pudding, weakest daughter of the big mom crew, is stronger than all of the germa top brass"

Pudding being stronger than all the Germa guys would be dumb. Maybe she got in a sneak attack on Sanji's sister or something but if genetically engineered super villains aren't incredibly tough that would be really lame.

If the arc doesn't end with Big Mom beaten up by Luffy, it ends with her holding her tea party grousing about how much she is totally above the damage that the Strawhat wrecking ball caused. Then she'll bring out the centerpiece for this tea party, the treasure chest from Fishman Island. Hopefully there will be some sort of explosive pun about how excited she is to open it.

The Germa are definitely weaker than any of the other named players in this arc outside the Namis. The only reason they've managed to get as far as they have right now is that they're keeping Sanji from going sickhouse via hostages. Once that restraint is gone he's going to wreck them, because they're the dickhole schemy type of enemy. They're not a warlord type enemy. Remember they're entitled world nobles who could be living on Marijos with the other fishbowl assholes if they wanted. They always write checks their rear end can't cash.
