Oda just repeated the same shot of Sanji at the end as he did a few chapters ago. I think he's losing oxygen like Ippo.
If he dies now, would you guys regret OP not finishing?

The bad news is that this is definitely filler to get us to 900. The good news is that there's not many chapters left until then, so it should be business as usual again very shortly.

You have been a most worthy adversary, but in every game, there are winners and there are losers. And as you know, in this game, losers get robotizicized!
why get to 900?

I don't really see how Luffy escaping Katakuri and trapping him in the mirror world only to pop out right in front of a rampaging Big Mom is "filler" but uh ok if you guys say so

With the caveat that this is still some extrrrremely good chapters and this arc is bananas, it does feel like this chapter strayed from the carefully plotted out crazy tension of the last 30 (or so?) chapters towards just random inconsequential things happening.  Running from big mom feels like treading old ground at this point. Also this is the second time that luffy running out of steam after Gear 4 cause the manga itself to also run out of steam.

EDIT: Like, the tension worked really well when you could not see the way out. A few chapters ago it was hard to even imagine any possible way out for our dudes. Now it's obvious though: Bring Cake, get Dogtooth upset about something and sock his face, sail home happily. So now we're kind of just waiting for that to happen plus any potential (read: inevitable) twists along the way.

Also 'WEDDING CAKE' is this arc's 'AAAAASSUUUUU'. Poor anime viewers.

The developer of Brigador is a secret chud, don't give him money
My bad prediction is that Luffy is going to ruin the second cake as they're delivering it and just cause Big Mom to go completely batshit and use that chaos to defeat the psychic guy. I was digging this arc earlier but I'm not really enjoying this ending to it. Not because of Big Mom, because I found her backstory to be delightfully horrifying, but like this escape thing just feels like it's really dragging its feet even though it hasn't been long at all. Also I don't like psychic guy.

Oda seems to have a penchant for hitting the brakes on fast-paced tension - first the birdcage in Dressrosa, now this arbitrary 10-hour time limit with the cake. Still really loving the arc, but this detour is worrying.

kind of lame the answer to "how is he going to beat katakuri" is "he's not"

or he is but it's going to be ten "minutes" from now so we get several chapters of nothing but Luffy fleeing

Stop saying Dogtooth.

The chapter was good but I am definitely not excited about the return of Gear 4's ten minute cooldown. It was bad in Dressrosa and while this time it's better since Luffy is still up and active during the break to get into further hijinx, if this doesn't go somewhere big next next week it has the potential to be a disappointing lapse in what has been an outrageously good arc.

Amande, and she didn't do it to let him escape i think she just hosed up trying to kill him. Apparently she's another one of big mom's kids, although I don't think that was actually stated in her introduction.

Just wait until Perospero puts up a big candy cage over the tottoland islands and traps the Strawhats!

How do you do, fellow Regis?
I'll admit the story is going around in circles a little bit, but we aren't quite up to Dressrosa levels just yet.

If we spend 15 more chapters running away from Big Mom just so something can happen in chapter 900 then yeah, a lot of the goodwill of this amazing arc will have been wasted.

That 10 minute time limit needs to get shrunk down to like 1 or 2 minutes. Gear Third's drawback never felt annoying because it was short.

Chapter 400: Breaking into motherfucking Enies Lobby
Chapter 500: Formal introduction of Gol. D. Roger's First Mate, Silvers Rayleigh
Chapter 600: Straw Hats get back together following the timeskip and head off to meet Luffy at Sabaody
Chapter 700: Doflamingo gets the Mera Mera and the Straw Hats arrive at Dressrosa
Chapter 800: Straw Hat Armada is formed

So, uh, yeah. Nothing special ever happens on X00.
