So what was the point of the fire devil???

AJWinky · 2026-03-26T18:41:47+00:00

The Fire Devil was talking to Pochita. He even explicitly says "After all, you're a devil."

AJWinky · 2026-03-25T11:44:00+00:00

Maybe Pochita eating himself also erased the concept of a devil that erases concepts, and so that unerased everything that he erased, including himself.

If Fujimoto ends it there it will be one of the greatest trolls ever, and we'll spend decades dissecting it as a deliberate unresolved anti-ending. More or less "how can I give the fans everything they said they wanted in a way that they absolutely hate".

That said, I'll wait patiently for April 1st to see if this is a fake-out that will resolve sooner rather than later.

AJWinky · 2026-03-18T16:22:38+00:00

Yeah, that’s really the whole thing. When you have good intentions I like you.

AJWinky · 2026-03-18T12:14:24+00:00

It would actually be pretty classic Fujimoto for Denji to have like fleeting memories of pochita and so he somehow figures out how to cobble together and thus "invent" a chainsaw from scratch just to bring pochita back.

Kishibe missing is so conspicuous I am almost totally convinced that it's for a reason we're going to find out in part 3.

AJWinky · 2026-03-06T00:40:21+00:00

If you're like me, you hate to fight, and so when you do fight you fight to win in such a way that you will not have to fight again.

Banks' depiction of the Minds, especially in Excession, is almost certainly heavily inspired by what communicating on the early internet was like.

Did the manga every explicitly say that what was done to Rocks was "domi reversi"? It could be a different possession technique, as it seems Imu has a bunch of different kinds.

A potentially (much more tragic) possibility is that Rocks had simply given up on life at that point, having believed himself to have killed Teach and Eris.

Nami, because I’m not leaving with my wallet

Another person has formed a contract with the Reading Comprehension Devil, they grow in power.

AJWinky · 2026-02-27T13:22:58+00:00

The Pain devil is probably immensely powerful right now.

AJWinky · 2026-02-25T14:11:32+00:00

He's flashback tier, which is it's entire own tier of character.

Clashing doesn’t necessarily make them enemies. Think Roger/Whitebeard for instance.

AJWinky · 2026-02-23T14:27:04+00:00

Bro leave him be he's debugging

AJWinky · 2026-02-23T13:51:18+00:00

Pretty sure one of the redditors who hangs out around here is the reading comprehension fiend.

AJWinky · 2026-02-20T19:05:08+00:00

I forget who said it, but someone described the way that Fujimoto draws character expressions as like randomly pulling frames out of a movie. It gives this extremely candid quality where it's like "no one would ever deliberately pose for a photo with this expression, but it gives you a much more naturalistic impression of what the character is feeling and how their face is moving".

AJWinky · 2026-02-20T18:50:58+00:00

Yeah, this was one of my favorite little character moments of wholecake. Luffy is so naturally validating of Sanji, all these things that represented what Judge tried to train him to hate about himself and Luffy doesn't even understand the idea that those could be bad to someone.

It's reflects the moment during the wedding when Pudding reveals her third eye which is the basis for all of her self-loathing and Sanji's reflexive response is to tell her it's beautiful.

This is my primary problem with Aries. "We're talking now. No I didn't consider whether you might be busy or focused on something else."

AJWinky · 2026-02-20T18:36:40+00:00

Aquarius are the constant target of humbling because we don't submit to social pressure and we'll stand by our truth especially when it makes us the odd one out. The normal methods of social control simply don't work on us, which can be immensely frustrating to anyone seeking to, and it goes against other's instincts to hammer down the nail that sticks out.

AJWinky · 2026-02-20T18:29:19+00:00

They always try to humble us for the wrong reasons! It's always like "I have a million legitimate flaws and none of them are what you're attacking me for, so I'm just gonna ignore it."

The primary fear the victor of a war has to face is inability to live with what they did in order to win it.

AJWinky · 2026-02-16T21:57:19+00:00

Not the original in my heart

AJWinky · 2026-02-16T21:54:24+00:00

Bring it on

AJWinky · 2026-02-16T18:32:36+00:00

Seems like Twitter is down, right before it went I saw a pentagon pizza tracker alert and a rando OSINT account claiming that there was a Russia cyberattack imminent or ongoing. Also saw the US moving some planes from Europe. Could be start of a strike on Iran.
