At this stage I'm mostly imagining Franky's face when he sees the Sunny. Ship of dreams my rear end, I'm not seeing the advantages of Adam wood if a suitably strong person can simply lift pieces of it up and look underneath like it's a carpet.

Big Mom is probably the physically strongest person in the world. If Adam wood was invincible, then Franky wouldn't have been able to get it in timber form in the first place.

When Big Mom is inevitably knocked out wouldn't all the Homies just turn back into whatever they were before she put bits of her soul into them?

I don't know, I reckon Kaidou is stronger but regardless she's definitely one of the strongest and top 3 even if she's not the tippy top.

I can see Oda going with the idea that some of the Homies have been around so long that they developed an individuality that means they can exist separately from Big Mom. Or that deciding to turn on her regardless of their origin means they're no longer bound to her.

Yeah a thing to note is that the shadows were not released because Moira was defeated (He was briefly knocked out during the Oars fight anyway and the shadows did not release) the reason there were released was because Moria absorbed them all and lost control of them.

Big Mom's soul powers likely work the same.

You know, Big Mom's regression is reminding me of Majin Buu in a way, though instead of going from Fat Buu to Super Buu she's going straight to Kid Buu.

To be fair, Chopper just took a hit from an angry Big Mom. That's pretty impressive.

Unrelated to his skill as a doctor, though. You've got to admit that Luffy, Zoro, Robin, and Franky have been making a lot more progress toward their dreams than Chopper has.

I thought it was fuses he put in his beard to make it extra smokey around his head while also providing a demonic light.

Besides, all Blackbeard theatrics references were used up when Whitebeard tanked a few cannonballs to the face and almost fell over, but instead just got angrier.

You just know this is foreshadowing to when there is going to be a scene when Enel returns where he comes up with a really complicated plan just to trap Luffy somewhere and when he gloats about how no one can stop his powers now Brook is gonna be there and Enel will make the enel-face again.

I bought myself Lego Marvel Superheroes 2 for the Switch over Christmas and it occurs to me that One Piece would be pretty rad as a Lego game. I've played half a dozen or so of them over the years and the gameplay is getting repetitive, so TT Games mixing things up a little would be appreciated, but even if they didn't seeing their take on One Piece and it's humor would be fun regardless.

Not impossible, Arc System Works followed their previous Dragon Ball game (Extreme Butoden) with a One Piece game using the same engine and mechanics, to the point that you could link them and fight OP vs DB.

Though that was with a far more mediocre game than FighterZ but it still could happen.
