I'm pretty sure the gag was written specifically for whatever happens with Sanji now. Sanji's status was changed to "Alive" as soon as his face was shown.

If you think he was planning this all out from the beginning than I don't know what to tell you man, no author plans that far ahead except for the ones who suck and only sell 1 part of their planned 19 part novel series before getting canned.

I don't if he had every detail planned out from chapter 1, but I think since he had Sanji's face obscured with two sets of wanted posters he had to have had some purpose.

He did: It was funny.

O: No, she... how should I say this? She's kind of like a hypnotist. Those people use suggestion, and "color" in this case, to excite people and calm people, and when revved up enough can use these skills as attacks, but they do not have Devil Fruit Powers.

The "being able to steal other users' Devil Fruits" is because he has an atypical body structure, not because of the Yami Yami no Mi.

This still hasn't been proven by anything beyond one line that was incredibly vague and to my reading just implied the opposite.

"what actually does happen if you eat a second devil fruit" and "where exactly do these drat things even show up after their previous user dies".

Both have already been explained. You explode and a nearby fruit becomes a devil fruit respectively.

pun hazard

Punk Hazard is also my least favorite stage in PW3 because you spend most of the level running away from gas. so maybe accuracy isn't always a good thing.

Caesar is fun to play as though even if I hate his annoying laugh. Ryusei Nakao says GAS really well when you do a team up special attack.

you only really see him in a fight twice tho, yea? where he blows up the fleet and where he loses to the blackbeard pirates, which is likely gonna be the final enemy of the whole series. if you're gonna lose to someone, it may as well be the end boss

That's precisely the point. He did dick all in the story and was an ancillary character with zero personality and is somehow consistently peoples favorite character because he's good looking. Sabo is even worse.

Blackbeard's first appearance is a very obvious metaphor about him and Luffy having similar goals and ideals but opposing tastes (literally). Akainu is just an angry cop doing his job.

Oda makes a poo poo ton of retcons too. I like the idea of Killer being Sanji's brother but if that happens, don't think he really planned that out 20 years in advance. I mean he straight up admitted he cooked up all the Supernovas in like an hour and of all of them he put the least amount of effort into Killer, hence his name.

Killer will not be Sanjis brother, just like there was no way Axe Hand Morgan was ever going to be Jack.

I'll give you the latter but I think the former could hold if only because Killer is such a nothing character that Oda can do anything with him. Hell, he retconned Law into being a D, you never know.

Brook is like 9 feet tall you just kind of forget about it because every villain is like double that.

Your Dunkle Sans posted:

It'd be loving brutal even by One Piece standards if the guy was literally boiled to death when he was alive.

That was a traditional execution method in Feudal Japan (famously it was used to execute Goemon Ishikawa) so it actually fits since that seems to be the country's whole gimmick.

Thought it was kinda boring that they were just running around in circles for half a chapter but warmed up to it once I imagined the anime stretching it out to 3 episodes somehow.

Carrot and Pedro rule and are way better than boring rear end Jinbe who I hope dies before he joins the crew.

anime was right posted:

franky's VA is pretty weak in english (not awful, just... does not compare to the original at all), and i hate chopper's va. pretty much everyone is okay otherwise i think.

Franky's VA isn't bad but Franky was specifically designed to give his Japanese VA a full time job on One Piece so any other voice for him is not going to sound nearly as good.

Usopp and Brook are better in the dub and everyone else is at least okay.

I dunno what I love more, people doing "conjoined fetus" level mental gymnastics to make sure their new One Piece waifu is secretly triple fooling literally no one so that she remains a pure maiden, or that people are concocting stupid ideas for how Tamago can be a sentient egg when the main vilains whole shtick is that she can make sentient objects.

Brook is an insanely good character.

I always liked Brook because he appealed to a lot of things I love (skeletons and bad puns, mostly) but he never really did much as part of the crew and I'm really glad he gets all these great moments in this arc. He's technically the first Straw Hat to hurt one of the 4 Emperors (not counting Luffy punching Blackbeard in Impel Down).

This thread has proven time and time again that taking things metaphorically is not their strong suit.

In good news, Funimation Now as the first 2 post timeskip episodes up and I'm happy to say that Fake Sanji and Robin have exactly the voices you think they have.
