it was so interesting how the mihawk vs zoro fight was different in the manga than in the show.
i feel it was much more sudden, no planning the duel for next day, just when zoro saw mihawk he already knew he has to try and fight him.
luffy doesn't say anything against if even if they had just seen mihawk split that ship with just his sword. he accepts it (because he already understands he can't stand in the way of zoro's dream), and stands close by without saying anythign almost the whole fight. watching it closely.
and when zoro is having troubles, luffy still holds johnny and yosuku back so they don't interfere with the duel .
only after zoro is defeated and drops in the water, luffy loses it, and goes after mihawk with so much anger.
it was a nice and interesting moment that mihawk saw luffy holding the others away from the fight.
lets luffy know that he didn't kill zoro.
and then this whole thing sksajds
"luffy, can you hear me?"
"i hear you."
the way they showed it in the show was great - with how close luffy was by zoro's side, immediately checking up on him and hearing what zoro wanted to say to him directly.
but the way it's in the manga, it's almost heartbreaking because they're some distance away and luffy has to ask usopp if zoro is ok, and zoro isn't even sure if luffy is around, but he needs him to know!
that we won't ever fail!
"got a problem with that, king of the pirates?"
and same as in the show, luffy in different words say zoro could never fail him! he's so happy zoro survived that

so umm I finally finished reading Thousand Autumns after 3 years, it's fully translated now so yippee!
drew this to get the pictures out of my head and maybe to get someone interested in the book and you should all look at yan wushi's gray hair and shen qiao's deer-like eyes

“Luke is the lowest-ranking of low-rankin’ angels. He’s a total nobody, you know? Yet they’re sendin’ him to the Devildom and human world and stuff. Which means Michael or Simeon has to be pullin’ some strings behind the scenes. ‘Cause they think he needs to see what things are like outside of the Celestial Realm, ya see. They’re probably hopin’ the experience will teach him that there’s more out there than just the world of angels. Still, it hasn’t helped him one bit so far. He hasn’t learned jack. Luke’s still convinced that the way angels do things is the RIGHT way. He doesn’t even wanna consider that he could be wrong. Which is why the Great Mammon here is tryin’ to force him to. Because it’s not like everything revolves around angels and the Celestial Realm. There’s more to the world. Like, sometimes someone’s gonna come along and scam you outta your dessert! That’s life!”

I’m reading Turning and I love how Yuder is getting the babygirl™️ treatment from Kishiar. he just. does whatever and Kishiar backs him up. My subordinate starts a fight with a high ranking Knight? He wants me to ask the Emperor for a favor? He annoys yet another member of nobility? Simply cannot help but stan. I’d pay cash money to read all of these scenes from Kishiar’s perspective. This autistic badass twink just walked into his life, saves him once, and Kishiar is just. I Must Bully Him Into Becoming My Closest Ally. Obsessed.

listen its not that tamlin locking feyre in a manor is ‘not a big deal’. its that sjm parallels tamlin and rhysand way too much for rhysand to be a viable, healthy option for feyre.
rhys put a whole city under a lockdown so severe people forgot about its existence (and from what the wiki says, the city was kept hidden for centuries even before, for the safety of its citizens) but tamlin locking feyre in a manor, so she wouldn’t follow him into an unsafe situation was crossing a line?
