    Teaming up with an Emperor does make pragmatic sense. If you’re not allied with one or directly angling for one’s territory, you’re likely to be targeted by them at some point just on territorial principle.

    it's how mom and kaido operated

    nobody wanted to fuck with them

    shanks doesn't care, and teach has been trying to carve out a kingdom that the revolutionary army has been countering

    Still kinda surprised Kidd thought he could take on fucking shanks of all people. Now they both have one arm lol.

    kidd is a violent lunatic

    So is Luffy.

    I mean one of the general points of Berserk is that while Guts has absolutely every reason to be mad at Berserk killing will likely do nothing at all to help Guts in any way.

    After Wano, there's:

    Elbaf? 4th Ponegliff?

    Laugh Tale (Raftel)

    Find out aftermath of Reverie

    Tie up individual crew arcs (Laboon, All Blue, etc.)

    Paramount War II for finale, which needs Blackbeard, Shanks, Vegapunk, Admirals, Revolutionaries, Worst Generation.

    Probably stuff I haven't considered or remembered. There are a lot of balls being juggled, narratively.

    Could easily be another 5 years.

    As long as it isn’t another 50 ( exaggeration I know) episodes of big Karen screaming wedding cake for 20 minutes it’s going to be awesome. That was the worst part of that big mom assassination attempt by far.

    Re: Ascendance of a Bookworm
    The conversation in episode 8 was really well done. I do wonder if old Main is really gone. In episode 1, you do hear her for a bit, and besides N!Main somehow magically transferred consciousness to a new body while keeping the new body's memories which means really there's no way to speculate about what's possible.. Or maybe the two individual's consciousness merged and the consciousness that had way, way more experience became the more influential part. But I kind of doubt that because then N!Main would have had emotional connections with her family and friends, which she didn't have until she actually spent time with them.

    It would probably be better if she was gone as compared to somehow still being around. Almost any way of OG Main still being there would be extremely tragic for her. Well, even more tragic than a five-six year old child dying of fever.

    Re: Blackbeard.

    I’m still holding on to the theory that his Dark fruit is operating at like half power most of the time we’ve seen him in action, because the thing that weakens it is light of any kind. Like how Crocodile lost a bunch of his sand power when wet. And that’s why he covered himself and Whitebeard in a huge curtain when he stole his power. In an environment of total darkness he can make full use of the power and become shadows.

    Granted, most of this is just me not believing that a Logia fruit exists that doesn’t have the basic power of Logia fruits, to dissolve into the thing it controls.

    Kaido was interesting as just this phenomenally strong person who had never been injured and did things like fall off Skypeia, crash into the ground, and get up complaining he hadn't died.

    Wano Kaido is way worse in comparison.

    I liked tonight's episode of One Piece a lot. Robin gets to do something! Plot happens! No tedious drawn out action scenes or filler slow pans or flashbacks! It felt like an episode from a show that actually cares about pacing for once.

    I thought Sanji vs Dinosaur guy last episode was pretty good. Some real nice animation in that one.

  • BahamutZEROBahamutZERO Registered User regular
    edited April 20
    The dinosaur fight was fine in the technical sense, wasn't too filler-y, and they kept it all to one episode which was very restrained of them. I think the suit is kind of lame compared to his usual fighting style though, and it was a little too irrelevant to the main plot for me to care that much about it. Didn't feel like there were any stakes, was mostly just to put Sanji over and show off his powerups, which is fine, but doesn't appeal to me.

    Which reminds me that I was really hoping Sanji would fight one of his brothers in the whole cake arc and establish that he already eclipses the raid suits with just his natural abilities and haki training.

    Being watch G Gundam for the first time, y'all were right that it really picks up after the first few episodes.

    Just got through the end(?) of the first story arc, and it's kinda fascinating how much the JRPG Xenogears seemingly takes inspiration from this series. From the mech's design to the "martial arts with mechs" story framework, to the dark mentor character.

    Anyway, this show is mega rad and I feel dumb for sitting on it for so long.

    I dont think she has an arc. Whole cake is more about her Kids and how she should treat them better but doesn't. Big Mom is just that rich old lady that says she's all about equality but actually shes a cuthroat monster that doesnt actually get what real equality is.

    Big Mom is kind of odd as a One Piece villain because the worst things she does, she doesn't actually seem to be conscious or aware of. So the whole "teach this trash person a lesson" part doesn't come into play as much. It's more like punching out a hurricane.
