[Not Kuno]

Hey baby tell me those eight words I (dont) want to hear.

[Olo401]

Spoiler: show

Man, Gotta give it to Oda giving Luffy the extreme aging treatment in the past few chapters.

[Not Kuno]

Chapter finally out

[Deathbringer]

Those last 2 pages took me by surprise holy shit.

[Olo401]

Spoiler: show

An alliance with Bege of all people, who has a fetish for literally taking the heads of his enemies & rivals. I get the logic behind teaming up with him, but they really need to keep vigilant against a double cross.

Also, there's the various underworld guests at the wedding. What's the possibility of some members of the Straw Hat Fleet showing up? If I remember correctly Don Chinjao & co. are involved in that.

In anime series news, a filler arc called Marine Supernova is scheduled to start with the March 19 episode.

Jesus Christ there was a years worth of Bleach plot advancement in this chapter.

And here I felt bad we had to wait a week. Glad I don't read that mess.

So is Luffy going to eventually team up with every supernova? Although some of them might be dead as shit already.

[Seha]

Bonny was taken by admiral Akainu.

[Not Kuno]

Yeah and I think the Monk ate shit when he attacked Big Mom? The Metal guy is probably dead somewhere too but Luffy already teamed up with him at Shabondy. So if we count Bege, that's already 6/11 Luffys interacted with, so that's not bad.

[Olo401]

This episode was great! Fuckin' Luffy...

The preview for this filler arc looked very interesting. I hope it's as good as G8 was.

The power of milk is strong.

[Not Kuno]

Good chapter. But the way OP works, next chapter will be a scene change and will show other castle stuff etc etc and we won't find out what the plan is till way later.

[Kanriel]

The power of milk is strong.

Pretty happy about this. It looked dumb.

Oda makes so many pieces involved in an arc, it's pretty great.

[Vaspinne]

Yeah, really happy all the bone breaking and tooth missing stuff was resolved quickly lol.

Oda's been ramping all the arcs up since after Fishman island. Punk Hazard had a bunch of different factions. Dressrosa was out the ass with so many different factions. And going forward, Wano and Reverie and etc, etc, all look like it's gonna be a gongshow with all the people involved. Normally I'd be worried about a story getting so convoluted but Oda has walked that line very well so far. If you didn't already know he dedicates an unreal amount of time into this story, you could tell just based on the quality of the manga alone.

[Olo401]

I really would've had no problem with Luffy showing some new battle damage to his body, but the way they resolved it was fucking hilarious so it's still all good.

Spoiler: show

And then the meeting scene with everyone dressed up like gangsters, and fuckin' Caesar with that porcupine afro just made me lose it again.

[Vaspinne]

That opening colour spread was pretty good too.

Spoiler: show

I'd let Nami tackle me >_>

[Not Kuno]

Chapter out (despite it being Wednesday).

[Olo401]

Hell yeah early chapter, and no break next week!

Spoiler: show

Do ya think Mother Caramel is someone we might know? There's quite a few people whose origins we don't know, and Oda is pretty fond of reaching back like that. There's speculation all over the place about this, ranging from Dadan to Jewelry Bonney to an unnamed giantess queen... to Pudding herself who removed her own memory.

I think Capone is misunderstanding what happened. Big Mom being described as invulnerable is suspicious. After all she has the power to animate anything she wants and her crew has a running theme of not being what they appear (Cracker pretends to be a giant, Pudding pretends to be good). The whole event could be a by product of Pudding having to rearrange people's memories after Big Mom's revealed her true form.

People are speculating the photo works like a horcrux. I doubt it though, her ability doesn't seem to work that way.
