TRANS RIGHTS!

I’m rewatching Alabasta this week and it got me thinking about part of Croc’s plan. Control the water, control the people.
Kaido and Orochi did something similar, though to an even more severe degree. Poisoning the rivers, limiting water to those outside of the Flower Capital, including the baths, and so on.
Two lines about water I find interesting when contrasted are Queen’s about how humans can drown in just two inches of water. And Denjiro’s metaphorical line about women having someone be the water at their roots to be their most beautiful. It presents water as a resource that can be used in so many ways, depending on the will of the one using it.
To Toto in Alabasta and to the people of Ebisu Town inn Wano, even a small amount is seen as invaluable.
Two more uses of water I like during Wano are: Raizo saving everyone with water he only was able to get by leaving Wano, or more generally by accepting help from outside the closed country.
And Kiku being free to accept Nami’s offer to enter the bath that was previously restricted. Nami, a pirate from outside the country, being the one to offer Kiku something that she wants ties into some neat ideas about access to water being a stand in for more general freedom during the arc. Also it’s just a very lovely interaction.

Stars in their eyes
Wanted to show glittery-eyed Bepo, full of love for mecha and his captain, but had to show Killer having his moment too, and then both crews fully enjoying themselves at the Flower Capital festivals.
Love how proud Usopp is (and Minatomo—the Wano carpenter), and Franky's jubilation, but mostly just wanted to show Bepo.
The colourings are by Ice D. Cream on Read One Piece Manga.

somebody needs to sit down with transphobic One Piece fans and explain to them that if someone says they’re a man, they’re a man

Dustin and Tyler have broken down the arguement perfectly. It doesn’t matter what we as readers believe Yamatos gender orientation to be. What matters is how HE refers to HIMSELF and how they have asked characters to refer to HIM.
Since intro he is quick to correct and introduce himself as Kaido’s SON. Every character in manga has done the same “young master, kaidos son, etc.” It doesn’t matter motive, doesn’t matter how you a reader interpret their whole identity and journey, doesn’t matter if they are/aren’t Oden
What matters is they have made every effort to correct and clarify that currently, they view themselves as a man (or at the very least, he does NOT EVER identify as female). So you choosing to ignore actual canon bc of some book that the publisher puts out to sucker you out of more money…don’t blame the manga author for “identity politics” when they have been drilling in through every interaction with this character, since their introduction, that this character does not identify with their birth sex.

YAMAKIKU PANEL!!!!!!!

Anybody else super annoyed by the fact that Zoro is currently awake and hardly even seems injured? He was already really messed up from that combo attack by Kaido and Big Mom, plus the drug he took was going to make it multiple times worse! I know it's been a week, but even a week's not enough to fix that I don't think. He should be more fucked up than he was after Thriller Bark, yet he's not??? He seems fine??? He absolutely shouldn't be! It makes no sense and I want my angst

Thinking about chapter 1052 more tonight, though when am I not honestly?
Tumblr media
Basedkikuenjoyer has mentioned how much personal growth Kiku is showing here to be asking Nami this, with how she mentions burying her feelings in the past.

Tumblr media
Think Nami and Kiku built trust though Nami being the one who offered to help Kiku with common tasks, in the days after the battle? Nami is one of the few women who would be free to do it, isn’t royalty or married or busy with retainer duties, like the other women Kiku is close with would be.
I’m really looking forward to this scene being animated.

1052—stars of the sea, kidlaw crumbs, franky, apoo, others
Lookit at Bepo and Killer (and one of Kid’s crew) get caught up in General Franky bling!
Tumblr media
and
The Thousand Sunny, Victoria Punk and Polar Tang are all shipshape and ready to go!
Tumblr media
Above, Looks like everyone is spread all over Wano, so Robin’s disappearance isn’t suspicious so far, except it really truly is! But there is the alliance in ship form above. I wonder if this will spawn some fic of the three captains in literal ship form.
Ooh, there’ Jean Bart at the front of the Polar Tang!
Tumblr media
Like, the feast hasn’t yet been announced, and maybe these guys got an invitation to the capital, but chose to stay with their ships (and let Franky and Usopp and the Wano carpenter do all the work? Ah, it is their field), but they and their crews are hanging out together. Kid and Law’s words in alignment. Law also bringing up a good point that they’re unable to find out what the government is up to and their reactions, unless, of course you are
Tumblr media
Apoo. Who and which side is he on? He’s like the wind, this guy. I still like him. You gotta have a cast of all kinds of personality types.
Tumblr media
So Kid and Law are out of the game? (above) I only read and watch One Piece for Law, really (although I have read it all, so I guess that’s not 100% true). Hope that they play a role in the final arc (bigger than what Shanks and Whitebeard have played, in terms of page time, in the whole series). But it’s okay if they don’t. It’s Luffy’s story. 
And what is not in the papers is this dude
Tumblr media
There’s always a showdown with the navy and admirals. So this isn’t surprising, but knowing where Robin is is important. Also, I should have thought about bounties before I wrote my latest fic! Fingers crossed, Bepo and Chopper’s remain low (for purely selfish reasons).
