jinno,

Second image here, because I couldn’t figure out how to do multiple if it’s possible on Kbin

jinno,

Now it’s much more believable that Garp is dead - he’s laughing while freezing.

With that said - Kuzan hasn’t really ever actually killed someone in the series. Legitimately everyone he’s frozen on panel has lived - Saul, Luffy, Robin, Buggy, Blackbeard’s crew…

I’m looking forward to jumping back to Egghead and seeing how the crew handles the Siege, and gets our stone-turned members back in action.

jinno,

So - it looks like it was all before Luffy met up with them after Enies Lobby. Koby’s style of dress hadn’t changed yet, and Helmeppo’s style was still bowl cut and no eye covers.

That said - that’s just when Koby started training with the Battleship Bag concept. We saw last chapter that it took years for Kuzan to catchup to Garp in the quality of hits he was doing - so Koby being able to have a really destructive hit a couple of years into that type of training is maybe a little surprising but ultimately is why Garp had so much faith in him as the future of the Marines.

jinno,

At this point - all we control is how we respond to it.

If it’s awful, then dang, the naysayers were right.

If it’s decent - are we a community that lifts it up to give it a shot at a second season and more refinement? Or do we let our nitpicks become grievances that drags the opinion down?

If it’s good - then it probably doesn’t matter what we think as manga/anime fans - a good show with these characters and key events will find an audience.

jinno,

The weirdest part to me is that it doesn’t feel like we’re getting any hints of Kuzan regretting this or even being uneasy about it. Garp was his mentor even if it wasn’t as direct as Garp’s relationship with Koby and Helmeppo.

Is Kuzan actually a baddie, now?

18+ Spoilers Thread: Chapter 1087 (www.pirate-king.es)

THE VOID MONTH IS OVER! Oda’s laser eyes are good to go, and a new chapter is coming this week. Please do not share these spoilers outside of this thread, and please generally be skeptical about the veracity or how these will actually be portrayed in the real manga. Spoiler translation below....

jinno,

Very likely. I just used the output from my phone’s built in Spanish-> English translation. Typically Hachinosu gets translated as “Beehive” or “Fullaled” Island.

jinno,

That’s still a conversion. It’s just one that doesn’t really come with any pomp or circumstance.

jinno,

It feels like the end of Big Mom would have been more impactful if we weren’t stretching the Damned Punk shots to be several seconds of continuous beam. I think making it quick and resolving everything in 1066 would have been more satisfying.

jinno,

Images yoinked from Artur on Twitter. Posted the images rather than a link to the tweet because of the obnoxious login requirements on Twitter that make quickly viewing a tweet on mobile annoying.

jinno,

I’m really excited. I really want to see how the crew’s first interaction with a Gorosei happens as Saturn comes into Egghead. I also can’t wait for Vivi to rejoin the crew and for Sabo to share the message, and for Usopp to meet the Giants in Elbaf, and for finding out the secrets of God Valley, and for finding out how to get to Laugh Tale, and…

First misinformation susceptibility test finds 'very online' Gen Z and millennials are most vulnerable to fake news (phys.org)

Researchers want the public to test themselves: https://yourmist.streamlit.app/. Selecting true or false against 20 headlines gives the user a set of scores and a "resilience" ranking that compares them to the wider U.S. population. It takes less than two minutes to complete.

jinno,

Yeah, there were a few headlines where I was like “Well… maybe? If I can’t actually read it I’ll assume false, though.”

AITA for telling my kids about my wife's cheating?

A couple of years ago I discovered my wife of 25 years was having an affair. I kicked her out and told her to go be with him (maybe that's another AITA question). She asked what I would tell the kids, who at the time were 20 and 17 years old. I said I was going to tell them the truth. She pleaded, "please don't tell the kids." I...

jinno,

NTA

I feel like the only thing that might be even remotely be a mark against you is if it really was as quick turn as your post makes it seem. Even if it was a deserved ultimatum - if you allow them the option to break the news themselves, I think an allowance of a day or two to form the right way to break it to them might have been better for her current standing with the kids.

But ultimately - no matter how much time you gave her to prep that speech, it likely wouldn't have saved enough face for them to feel more cordial in the short term.

jinno,

It’s not crazy at all. They want the social expectation of what “far left” is to get established at Biden as a baseline. So they’re going to tie that label as much as they can so that when actual progressives put out a platform they’re seen as completely insane and non-viable despite the rest of the developed world doing it for decades.
