The pacing has been extremely fast

they literally regenerated from the wound they gave to each other lol

Its the piccolo regen

"Guys we can keep chopping off their limbs it won't do anything!"

"What about the head?"

"....we should have tried ngl"

#

They regen everything except the actual kill strike

cursive summit

So they can Regen but they can die? What?

Dorry Broggy came back cuz they chose literal decapitation

Imagine if they missed their swing

outer flax
#

Also domi reversi fight was rushed and that's why it's not satisfying

#

Atleast we should have seen domi reversi dorry and broggy attacks

golden valley
#

Domi Reversi plot point was useless

outer flax

Situation should feel somewhat urgent

# outer flax Only sandman can help

This also happens when people want to point to Gaban saying "they are not immortal" and then trying to hold "immortal" to the iron-clad rule of the english definition. Here, undying is refering to the regen factor they have. That's it

This chapter might be more controversial than Bonney Nika

i rarely see people pointing out that these DRs can use CoC defense IF they had em or can use them

Bonney Nika stuff had payed off build up and feels

#

Ig major reason why people don't like this chapter because how its was too easy to figure out domi reversi weakness

And in certain media, regeneration needs like...
Either head destruction or complete annihilation

I think Wolverine's regen is stopped if u fuck up his head

Dorry and broggy figure it out by themselves

The tier of regenerative powers goes like this

Imu > Gorosei > Holy Knights > Marco > Domi Reversi

There are no exceptions

lofty fern

Also, I wouldn't put it past DR to have other twists to it. It seems to be solved for now, but that's just their guess. If a piece can be flipped once, it can be flipped again. That's the nature of reversi.

golden valley

Watch Killingham get defeated next chapter

outer flax
#

Dorry and broggy should have been some threat in domi reversi considering their status

Dorry and Brogy being > Zoro would’ve been way way way better

But they were done in too easily

It's either that rocks did not die (bullshit)
or rocks did indeed die but oda is inconsistent like he always is (also bullshit)

I respect the results this evening

on my desk

outer flax
# ashen perch I mean execution is fair, though I will say, we're clearly in an upward trends i...

Yea I don't like the upward trend for alliance but entire scenario of domi reversi giants should have been done way better.

We didn't see a single attack from domi reversi dorry and broggy on random giants and also jarul was never once in trouble.
There was no sense of urgency and stake.
Like compare it to when parents desperately tried to save the children ,that bring up the stake and emotions

So basically

ashen perch

no one knows cuz we dont know if umu has different versions of it and its perks

Hopefully oda deliver the rest

Brook “blocked” it like how Zoro blocked Hakai

Actually sommers is great and interesting villain

Basically, they have the lowest tier of regen. Superficial attacks do not work, they can recover from their wounds and keep on going. But in the case of an instant fatality, they won't recover.

how does this compute

Oh yeah, Oda absolutely embarrassed the MMA’s so bad across several chapters that he decided to “Let’s continue to use the MMA’s as punching bags for Strawhat hype moments” Am I supposed to be hyped that Franky and Jinbei teamed on a MMA? Like for real? I think the coolest thing in that chapter is Franky FINALLY getting an upgrade

It is better yeah

But Jinbei getting reduced to that is just baffling

he just showed how they casually dealt with it, its not supposed to be a big deal lol

You’re genuinely telling me Jinbei teaming up on MMA’s with franky is better than teaming up on Killingham with Sanji

latent hamlet
lofty fern
# ashen perch the crew just being cool and competent and having no issue

I think they should have some issue, which they did have this arc so that was good. They were basically dominated this entire arc. If it wasn't for Gunko's lapse of control for a moment, they would still be tied up. Except maybe for Robin thanks to Sanji. I like to see them have to struggle and even fail rather than just always succeed

Again, it still carries the same meaning

what take

We expected something from usopp against domi reversi after this badass speech

i feel relieved a little that everyone seems to agree

someone takes killingham horn that controls the dream monsters so thats useless soon
so killingham will use his base form to fight without summoning

I wanna say shameful

But the way Yall have just ten toes locked down on the interpretation that bothers you when nothing is definitive yet

ashen perch

Again lets think about it, Imu made a contract with them. This is something that he didn't even do with Xebec.

A contract with the devil cannot be nullified so easily I feel

grand flower

I feel like I’ve been watching people work themselves up since the spoilers came out

thats a perfect good point
imu made contact with tentacles

why ignore that

Yup

frail kindle

#

If imus powers are based on a magic system or are a magic system, it makes sense it’s very conditional

odd rune
#

i wouldnt feel like i got baited if the moment continued to develop though shuron what im saying is that the indiviudal moment between dorry and brogy felt undercooked and low stakes because of how abrupt it was

grand flower
#

Magic tends to be “Devil in the details”

odd rune
#

i dont care if it continues or not really it wouldnt change the moment in this chapter

#

it would just make it more redundant feeling unless the development added anything

grand flower

The abruptness wouldn’t matter because that’s just part of something bigger

just post the panel of HK contract to Dorry contract lol its that easy
go compare

ashen perch

Rocks was directly infected by imu, if that matters anything compared to magic circle bs

the abruptness wouldnt matter in terms of the overall conflict to be overcome but as a single emotional moment it still feels undercooked and abrupt so idc

so yeah if thats ur point i agree but its not what im talking about or most people i think

#

even if they assume that its the end of the moment

ashen perch

The moment is in service of something larger

the domi reverse is some other shit

against their will

odd rune

but i dont see a way that could happen because the emotion of the scene is solitary and just serves to bolster the overall conflict

grand flower
# unique lagoon i dont get this

Like, because the Reversi flips you, it works inverse of how a normal contract would

Normally you’d agree to a contract. But Reversi requires the person to refuse the contract

unique lagoon
frail kindle
latent hamlet
#

The thing is if we're linking imu to classic devils and devil contracts

The victim is willingly accepting the contract

odd rune
#

like what continuation of the moment do you actually suggest would help to serve my problem with the scene

unique lagoon

why is the tatto important for a contract

odd rune
#

i dont see it personally

grand flower
unique lagoon
#

why cant it be different types of contract

#

surely theres variety

grand flower
#

The arc isn’t over

latent hamlet
#

Imu infected rocks while giving his orders

There wasnt any vibe of a "willing person submitting to the devil"

grand flower
latent hamlet
#

Some1 check the harald contract acceptance bit

unique lagoon
# grand flower It probably is

then why are people against this idea
its not like its a dumb one it makes perfect sense
imu is all great and powerful afterall

odd rune
#

my problem is with how the scene is given to us shuron i really dont care about whether the conflict continues or not because again unless the scene meaningfully builds upon that moment that has seemingly very much reached its emotion catharsis, the conflict barely adds to the emotion of that scene

grand flower
#

So just digest the emotion of the scene and keep on

#

Maybe I can’t understand this

odd rune
#

i feel like you just attached your own thoughts onto my comment without actually understanding what i was talking about the whole time

grand flower
unique lagoon
#

all i care about is if it makes sense in the verse oda established

frail kindle
#

this is the only reason why I say domi reverse is different, because the gorosei mention only 3 stages

#

it also seems to not have any drawbacks to imu, unlike the covenants

odd rune
#

my point is pretty clear its just that it's obvious to me that the emotion of the moment is over and done with and i think it doesnt land very well because it feels undercooked and abrupt, and that any continuation of the overall conflict (i.e. dorry and brogy get cursed again) wouldnt remedy how this otherwise very cool moment didnt land for me

it is absolutely more meaningful if we get to see what it means to other people

Like I’m reading yoi describe this ans I’m thinking “I don’t think it’s necessary but it does sound emotional”

unique lagoon
#

whats the build up towards that anyway
zoro has a plan he did the plan
made them dmg each other
then skip to them suddenly snapping out of DR to killing each other then regen back
= oh thats how it works lol lets have fun killing these guys

odd rune
#

more of a build up would have been nice as well, i remember the thing with zoro obv but that doesnt rly cut it for me idk

#

maybe usopp coulda seen it happen and that sparks a bit of a monologue

grand flower
languid juniper
#

but then next chapter we see them turning back, my issue with this is how they are back again like nothing happened, they should be out of commission and not jump straight back into action

odd rune
#

cause this really feels like that

grand flower
unique lagoon
grand flower
#

You didn’t think it had as much time to breathe as it could have

unique lagoon
#

which can be expanded but i think you get what i mean

grand flower
#

I can see this having more time in a different age of Oda’s life

runic dock
languid juniper
unique lagoon
#

also imu took a chunk of their lifespan
will that even make a difference
oda has done this before

runic dock
#

Using all that haki

odd rune
#

oda is definitely very good at making sure the important stuff gets included and thinning parts that arent important but just because its not strictly neccessary doesnt mean it makes the manga better by removing it and obviously oda knows that as well its just disappointing to see such a genuinely fantastic moment hit dull for me bcuz of this

#

cause it really is such a cool moment

unique lagoon
#

i can simply cope that this is just low tier imu power
like 30% GV imu was like 60%
the main body is way powerful
but sabo escaped that one so i dunno

#

lol

languid juniper
runic dock
# odd rune cause it really is such a cool moment

Idk about cool , it’s more necessary than cool , this latest DR scenes with the giants , it’s actually HILARIOUS On the last page tht they’re sarcastically broken hearted over the one thing they love to do which is fight and make war

odd rune
#

yeah that was rly funny

runic dock
unique lagoon
#

they realize they can basically just do a sparing event without killing em
which they love

runic dock
#

Literally decapitated and it’s fine yes that’s the ability

#

That’s the point

odd rune
#

but i think its definitely meant to be a nostalgic emotional cool moment that just gets zero time to breathe

unique lagoon
#

this is how shanks and mihawk battled btw
FujiKEK

iron oriole
#

Its funny that DR Rocks was defending with Conq

#

"Kill me but i'm gonna defend to make it hard for you"

odd rune
#

in a matter of twenty seconds i digested that dorry and brogy sacrificed themselves by ending their epic century long duel climatically by decapitating each other into them being alive and also lets fight now

unique lagoon
#

its the nidhogg buff i guess

#
  • ragnir ofc
runic dock
#

So it was harder for him to resist

#

Theory tho

unique lagoon
#

why did the dmg on herald made him snap out
while the dmg on rocks dint

runic dock
#

Tendrils vs circle

unique lagoon
#

i swear its just a potent parasite thing
that went in rocks body

languid juniper
iron oriole
#

Harald is a proper contract so idt we should discuss them in the same way as DR Rocks

unique lagoon
#

literally being possessed by a demon

runic dock
#

Nvmd

unique lagoon
#

a separate entity

runic dock
#

He should be different yeah

#

Different abilities

unique lagoon
#

thats why these DRs have 2HP bars

#

theres another layer
kill the parasite first

unique lagoon
#

both was using CoC defense

runic dock
unique lagoon
#

thats fine im just confirming

runic dock
#

Cause giants also were able to lessen their hold a bit

#

And I think it’s cause of different method used essentially

#

Circle vs tendrils

unique lagoon
#

what made roger+garp attack different from a full on HK contract that made him snap out

#

you would think an HK contract is more potent with the mind wipe

#

then again rocks mind was not wiped

runic dock
iron oriole
#

I wouldn't be surprised if in Haralds case, it was the fact that it was Loki doing it that caused Harald to snap out of it

runic dock
#

Especially if it’s a DF in the end causing all this

iron oriole
unique lagoon
runic dock
#

I notice DR and HK have opposite advantages

#

You literally can’t kill an HK with killing blows

#

But if you somehow do

#

They actually die

unique lagoon
#

we also need to consider that rocks was very powerful might even have VoaT buff
herald being an ancient giant and that could affect the mind thing

languid juniper
#

So all they have to do is cut the turned giant's headoff. Why did Oda made it look like we need coc if its that simple

unique lagoon
#

emotional response stuff like gunko

#

simple as

#

good job oda

runic dock
stone terrace
#

Domi reversi was never the hk pact

runic dock
#

And just luffy won’t be enough

iron oriole
stone terrace
#

That was a conclusion that was jumped to

iron oriole
#

DR is different

unique lagoon
#

also rocks will was demolished cuz he thought he killed his family lol

#

he gave up

stone terrace
#

Garp and roger used acoc because thats what they fight with its their strongest ability

iron oriole
#

They also needed to because Rocks was using it to defend

unique lagoon
#

what is similar with HK pact and domi
extra power + mind control + regen

languid juniper
unique lagoon
#

now whats the difference
it affects imu if they die and can teleport?

#
  • wifi mind talk
tawny panther
#

so domi reversi - just kill them and they go back to normal

HKs - have to remove the mark with acoc then kill them with acoc while the mark is temporarily gone

Gorosei - i assume will be the same as the HKs

now all that’s left is to find out how to deal with Imu

tawny kraken
#

just overwrite the mark with a new one

unique lagoon
#

cuz we see sommers getting obliterated

iron oriole
#

I assume

unique lagoon
#

ngl im just betting on this whatever strong emotional response/will power

#

if an HK is willing then they are lost forever

tawny kraken
#

harald seemingly regained "conciousness" when the mark was injured and started losing it again when it regenerated

unique lagoon
#

consider he tried so hard to stop it

#

so his strong will might have made it possible + lokis haki dmg

#

while rocks even if only DR lost his will and gave up

#

you can say the same thing with dorry and broggy

#

the elbaf giant pride/will is so strong they can somehow snap out for a moment

tawny kraken
#

I was wondering about that, were they really just literally talking to each other?

#

or was it something like voice of all things like with rocks?

unique lagoon
#

i would say its almost the same amount of time as herald snap out

tawny kraken
#

with what lilith said and all that

unique lagoon
#

wait no herald was longer cuz the dialog

#

but he is stronger than them

#

bottom line its an elbaf will buff

iron oriole
unique lagoon
#

let me read that again i forgot what the speech bubble look like

tawny kraken
#

oh wait

iron oriole
unique lagoon
#

they talked first
then internal monolog for both of em

tawny kraken
#

unless zoro could also hear them MoriaSus

unique lagoon
#

theres also some flashback there which just ignore cuz we cant tell how long that is lol

tawny kraken
#

hey wait a second

unique lagoon
tawny kraken
#

where'd they get new shields so fast

oh the shield yeah

#

no idea

iron oriole
#

It probably regened

unique lagoon
#

their weapons transforms also so its part of the package i guess

#

which i want to point out a very cool demon version

#

like this is a very cool looking blade

iron oriole
#

When the HKs regen, they also regen their clothing etc so probably regened the shields

unique lagoon

thats like from those fantasy ARPG weapons

Was interesting that it never regened the gap

tawny kraken
unique lagoon
maiden saffron
iron oriole
#

You'd think since DR gives regen, that it would have regened the missing gap in Brogy's wrist/arm

#

But ig its a situation of "it cant regen damage prior to DR"

unique lagoon
#

yep im just going all in on gill

tawny kraken
#

seems it can't regen what's gone beforehand

unique lagoon
#

invisible creature making it float

iron oriole

Yeah it never healed, just stayed floating

what if the gorosei has no host like an HK
they are just pure parasite goo but sentient

what if gill invented the buster call

their dialog just sounds not human thats all i got from it

also facial expressions

same with doffy wanting to be immortal

doffy is like a imu wannabe but he is much cooler

but oda did say DFs power can overlap sometimes
similar stuff

he also said DFs varies between user personalities

Every time I see the name Machvise I can only think of his tail that I didn't know existed for like a decade

Oh yeah ig this chapter killed the Killingham is a Fishman theory

or confirmed it

iron oriole

Idk this doesn't give off "same race as me" vibes

dense haven

oda hates fishmen why would anyone think that

stone terrace
#

Im ruling out uncle ruckus theory because even if killingham had no choice but to be a fishman

#

The other cds would damn sure look down on him

#

And the hks treat him as a comrade

iron oriole
#

I bet the Fishman racism comes from them evolving to be able to live underwater

dense haven
#

no its because they're stupid fish

#

thats his only solution
sob story = loved character

iron oriole
#

Compared to everything else that is

iron oriole
tawny panther
#

Shanks also mentioned the same thing to Gaban

#

since the mark is what gives you the new abilities and it seems being destroyed can remove those new abilites

pallid niche
#

Shanks needed a sea king's help to remove his mark

distant vine
#

Still coming to the realization that we just got Franky buffs

#

Didnt even get foreshadowed, just dropped on us

pallid niche
#

my theory is that Mihawk is the same and that's why he wants somebody to succeed him as the world's greatest swordsman

#

so they can cut his sword arm off, and rid him of the mark

distant vine
#

I forgive you for the Nami SBS Oda (50%)

deep chasm
#

wonder how big the buff is

#

can franky beat a commander now

#

he was beating sasaki in wano, so maybe if its a big enough buff he could fight someone like jack, I do still doubt hes winning tho

distant vine
#

We could take him doing an attack side by side with Jinbe very literally

#

As the best case scenario

keen quiver
sly belfry
stray prism
#

Franky is planetary level

maiden saffron
#

not sure how much i like this explanation for death returning them to normal

will have to see more of it

i was totally sure that loki would use conquerors haki and force it out of them or something lol

pallid niche

#

thats like laughtale arc that duel

or before laughtale when all 4 emperors clash or most of em

I don't think LA Luffy laughs with shishishi

but yeah maybe he won't even yohoho at all

that would be even sadder

I wonder if they would adapt his panty gag if it got that far?

Or do they think a less hardcore LA audience would be turned off by that?

If they keep it then the LA deserves an Oscar

Oh btw, I saw a comment yesterday asking about Rocks' family. What happened to them on God Valley?

tawny kraken
#

btw where brook anyway, 3 chapters and no sign of him ChopperAngery

He's more of a womanizing charmer than the deviant of the manga

he died for good this time, sadly

ah just throw a bottle of milk at him

how can Brook have died when he's already dead

make it lilith super milk at that

runic dock
tawny kraken
#

he'll be fine

lofty fern
#

Usopp has nothing to do

brittle basin
#

Rocks makes sense 'cause i'm sure Roger and Garp used their combined haki to undo the domi before Garling killed him. but the family i don't know.

lofty fern
runic dock
lofty fern
brittle basin
#

then garling kills him truly?

lofty fern
#

It makes him unique

runic dock
#

The possibility now exists

iron oriole
#

well the island sank afterwards right? depending on how quick they recovered from the DR, maybe they could have got off/got to Kuma in time

brittle basin
#

i think the whole domi reversi thing is a little boring for me, but we'll see what oda does with it. not like haki by itself would've been much better (but we already have haki being used at least once to un-domi reversi rocks).

lofty fern
#

You sound like shuron and his xebec is alive theory

brittle basin
#

ah, god and there's a break too

runic dock
#

And we just don’t know yet

brittle basin
#

but at least Franky finally got his upgrade. though I can't tell if him being compared to a pacifista this late in the game is a compliment or not

though ig Kuma could have just come across them on the floor

ah ok

iron oriole

it was during the Garling stuff

#

we saw very little

brittle basin
#

i know he said something about coming after his family but i don't remember what else EDIT: like he was telling garling that he made a mistake doing that

vernal ravine
#

the haki thing was used cause domi reversi xebec protected himself with coc haki so they need to use it to be able kill him, it was never stated that haki was need to kill a dr

runic dock
#

It just depends who gets DR’d

#

Any main character who’s not fodder would need haki

brittle basin
#

haki is clearly not needed, a simple beheading works. but for someone as strong as rocks it was needed i guess

steel stirrup
runic dock
#

That’s possible too

brittle basin
#

so sad

runic dock
#

Still a higher chance they died one way or another

#

There’s just this small chance kuma could’ve saved 1 or 2 more than thought

#

Who knows now

brittle basin
#

oh, i'm so glad Franky reminded us that Lilith is still carrying around that coffin. so not only did it still contain the new body of the Stella, but also random plot-relevant sci-fi shit. muh goda.

steel stirrup
#

If they were alive they died when the island sank anyway

brittle basin
#

and i think it's hilarious that Kuma is still just kind of clinging to life somewhere on elbaf

while bonney is just hanging with her cool uncle and aunt
