#Belle-mère

fucked up that the last thing Nami and Law hear and see Belle-Mère and Corazon say to them is "I love you" with a smile

fucked up that the last thing both Ace and the Going Merry say to Luffy is "thank you for loving me"

fucked up. super fucked up. don't look at me when I read those stories the crying is ugly

The thing with Belle-Mère, and also Cora, is that they both knew they were going to die. I hadn't realised it in Belle-Mère's case until I was rereading her chapter the other day when looking at source material for a meta.

Maybe it was stubbornness, or maybe she knew her time was up. If she knew her time was up (and true, she almost guaranteed it was), then letting her kids know that she loves them and they are family is a complex gift.

Probably not the move I would've made. Nami was afraid of being alone, and she did end up being alone regardless. I wonder how she views her mother's sacrifice. I love Shanks' line at the graveyard of Whitebeard and Ace that he wished his captain sometimes knew when to retreat, when to be tactical. But, like Ace, he wouldn't back down.

It seems to be an ethos One Piece supports. Though, perhaps not.

“Times One Piece Made Me Cry” Count: 3

I didn’t expect this line to get me - I don’t normally cry at this chapter - but on this reread I remembered all the different times we’ve heard lines like this. It’s said SO OFTEN, and to so many people in so many situations that are miserable and grueling in different ways.

These scenes didn’t land for me when I read them as a kid. Not to get too personal but when things are That Bad, and have always been That Bad, you simply can’t imagine anything good ever happening. "Good things happening" was a fun fantasy to keep you entertained - like dragons and The Force and secret doors to magical worlds - but it only happened in stories. It’s not REAL. Good things don’t actually happen, and if they did happen they would never happen to me.

Reading this now I have new appreciation for the way Oda hammers this point home over and over and over again throughout the story. It’s like water on a stone: someday good things really DO happen, and they WILL happen to you.

But of course, Nami and Nojiko aren’t thinking that now.

Belle-mère’s cigarette - which she had in her mouth in every scene - extinguishing itself in her blood is one of those moments when I think the strength of comics as a medium really shines. Size, shape, tone, and placement of the panels here convey the horrified jumble of thoughts and impressions going through the girls’ minds in the second between Belle-mère getting shot and when her body hits the ground. But it allows us as readers to hold the scene for as long as we need to and notice the little details that we know will haunt the characters’ nightmares for the rest of their lives.

One Piece — "I love you."

From Volume 9 - Chapter 78 / NETFLIX One Piece - Season 1 Episode 7. Cocoyashi Village is held hostage, with each villager having to pay 100,000 berries per month to keep their lives, and 50,000 to keep each of their children. With Nami and Nojiko being adopted, the town has no record of Belle-Mère's motherhood. If Arlong doesn't notice them, she could get away with what little money she's been scraping by. But even to save her own life, she couldn't for a second deny them as her children.

Ce soir, son doudou m'a appelée "grand-mère".

D'abord j'ai rouspeté, évidemment.

Mais comment ne pas fondre quand elle se justifie "je suis sa maman, alors toi tu es sa grand-mère".

Belle-mère heureuse, ce soir.

they hopped between pubs but all he saw was that wanted poster. they were high on borrowed freedom, but all he saw was his unfinished report. they ogled over baked goods but all he saw was his reflection. it was murky, twisted, and vanished as soon as it appeared. an elbow thumped against him like a knife to the back, so he carried on. soul-searching could wait.

Oda really spent 90% of his good writing for female characters on Belle-mère. She gets to be so much more complex than pretty much any other woman in the series, and we only had her for like two and a half chapters. I love how she got to be both a certified badass and also this softly crying woman all in the same chapter. Women contain multitudes.

But I have to give a BIG dishonorable mention here for adding this whole thing about giving birth. All Belle-mère said was “I wish I could become a mother just by saying it.” It's such a strange thing to add, especially because the whole point is that she IS unequivocally their mother even though she DIDN’T give birth.

Worst of all, it erases the power of this scene. She DID become their mother just by saying it. And it cost Belle-mère her life, and that was worth it to her.

#one piece #op ch78 #saltey takes on one piece #belle-mère #dishonorable mention #to totally gut the emotional impact of this scene with such a bad translation #absolutely disgusted #this is why you study both literature and language in order to get a translation degree #so you don't fuck it up this badly
