If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.
Luffy didn't need to throw a punch to understand Sanji's heart. He will also not lift a finger to 'save' Sanji, He intends to let Sanji settle his own affairs.

Usopp's lost plenty of teeth in his fights. See his fight in Alabasta

Nami and Sanji were both uncharacteristically dense in this chapter. Or at least Sanji was; it's possible Nami saw through Sanji's act immediately but was angry at him for being uncharacteristically dense.

The Straw Hats are in a tight corner now. Luffy is injured and tired, Sanji is still wearing the exploding handcuffs and worried about Zeff, and Smoothie and Potato Starch are going to show up if Luffy and Nami stick around too long. Reiju had better betray her family really quickly.

If I were human, I believe my response would be: 'go to hell'.
Sanji gonna run the gently caress away from the wedding and Judge will have to use another son in his place.

Edit: Also gonna point out Luffy is not nearly as stupid as people think. He knew just what to say to get to Sanji.

Yeah, what Luffy did was practically calculated to force Sanji to get his poo poo together. Luffy has no idea why Sanji is acting this way, but he knows it's an act, and he's basically forcing Sanji not to sacrifice himself. Now Sanji has to come back for Luffy.

i'm more confident in my dumbass theory sanji will take the roulette that jinbe took and leaves big mom's crew with a zeff style peg leg deliberately because he couldn't possibly stand to lose his hands

Also curious to note is that Luffy didn't bother to put up Armament Haki, he just let Sanji kick him into a pulp. Was that Luffy making a point?

Nami dropping the -kun thing was pretty :stare:-inducing as well. Nami is making it clear that Sanji is being a complete dick to them, even if it is obviously a ruse and that surely hurts emotionally to see coming from practically a soul mate.

Usopp meant it at least a little based on his beliefs (and also insecurity). Sanji is obviously just being held hostage.

This seems exceedingly likely and would be incredibly bad-rear end.

Now I really, REALLY want Sanji's :zoro: moment to happen this arc.

Luffy is going to stagger into Big Mom's party, beaten to hell and back, but before he gets killed, Sanji busts out some mega-healing cuisine and saves him. This is my prediction.

Been rereading my volumes and at the end of thriller bark, chapter 489, it's the first mention I can recall of Boa Hancock, who according to the wiki, doesn't appear until chapter 519, so that's neat.

Yeah this very much a repeat of Robin's situation, but I feel it's a different enough situation that i'm not really afraid of this becoming a repeat of Water 7 / Enies Lobby. Also Sanji and Robin's backstories are kind of polar opposites since Robin had her entire clan murdered but Sanji kind of just ran away from home. So I think this will play out differently. Even if it doesn't, this is the best One Piece has been since Marineford.
