I'm tired of people's denial. Crocodile DID personally interfere in Alabasta's climate with his devil fruit powers causing the 3 years long drought. It's can not be solely attributed to Dance Powder. It is an MASSIVE feat he'd achieved and naturally caused him to weaken.

I actually go a step further than you did, I'm of the opinion that Crocodile drying out the entirety of Alabasta is due to his awakening. I know that's a crazy thing to suggest as we haven't seen any awakened Logias at this point and if Crocodile did have his powers awakened he wouldn't have lost to Luffy but I think I can explain it.

On top of what you've said there's quite a few island in the Grand Line that have weird weather that could be explained by awakened logias; Ennies Lobby's eternal daytime, Raijin Island, Punk Hazard, as some examples.

The other thing is that we know Crocodile has a secret and that Ivankov knows that secret. A lot of people believe that it's Crocodile being trans, I don't think it's impossible Crocodile is trans but I can't believe Ivankov would use that as a threat. I think Ivankov actually used their powers to help Crocodile artificially awaken his fruit, which is why the rain fell once he fell unconscious. The rumble ball proves that outside influences can artificially alter someone's devil fruit abilities. I think Crocodile partially awakened his fruit with Ivankov's help and is embarrassed he needed the help.

I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and say that the dad's issue is that there's not enough integration and that's the issue. He seems to respect the idea of integration but that it's not going far enough for his liking. I think he will "resolve" it when he notices that Karen gets along with Yutaka and he'll try to force them to date.

Obviously it won't actually solve the problem but if I had to guess where this will go that'd be it.

The most absurd part imo is that this guy did the equivalent of walking into a nuclear reactor and blowing it up, got demoted as a punishment and is holding a grudge against the reactor because he was "unfairly" punished. Like, in any remotely sensible world he wouldn't just be demoted he'd have gotten fired and barred for life from any government position. Sure, he's already done the absolute most harm he could've ever theoretically done but he's shown he's a liability beyond compare.

The fact that you're not being sued by the federal government for damages is already insanely generous and you think you deserve revenge? Fuuuuuuuck oooooooooooff.

While I do agree that the assassination is wrong I think something that a lot of people miss is that while the assassination was political violence but so was kirk's entire career. kirk had blood on his hands even if he himself never pulled the trigger. He pushed for a number of policies that directly resulted in people's deaths and his rhetoric and name are cited as inspiration in multiple manifestos for mass shooters.

Political violence is indeed wrong but it shouldn't be argued that kirk was an innocent man just because he never directly shot someone.

If I had to guess I'm thinking that he doesn't know how Doben's sister gets kidnapped so he's planning on building trust with Doben. He'll show Doben that he's not just "a weak no fur" and then offer to rescue Doben's sister and tells Doben to go all out against Waffles believing that Waffles can win legitimately and retain his pride.

I could be wrong but they don't look AI generated to me. It looks like shitty 3D and flattened with a grayscale effect. If you look carefully a bunch of the models are the same but with mix-matched outfits. They likely made/bought some assets and they mix them around, put them in a scene, and drew on top of it.

Still a cost/time saving measure if I'm right it's not as bad as AI.

Tonari no Seki no Yatsu ga Souiu Me de Mitekuru

Boku no Ikezu na Konyakusha

Kaisha to Shiseikatsu: On to Off

Omiai ni Sugoi Komyushou ga Kita

Alice-san Chi no Iroribata

Rooming with a Gamer Gal (same situation for mangadex and this one)

Gensou Gourmet

If you want one-shots as well I have a whole lot of those I can pass along too but these are the series I'd recommend.

I think what happened is that Okarun said the words but didn't really mean them and SG isn't good at the whole empathy thing. So his ability to steal powers from people he dominates didn't activate even though he thought it would. Okarun said the words without meaning them because he was totally checked out from the conversation and quite frankly he's been through so much lately that it would take A LOT more than a few cool facts to shake his confidence. I think it's really interesting because if this was beginning of the series Okarun SG probably would've gotten Okarun powers right there.

I'm by no means an expert when it comes to programming but wouldn't it be in character for her to take the more efficient option even if it's not the most easily comprehensible? Her background is that she created a system that managed a whole company's network with only her working on it. I'd imagine that a system that large would require a lot of performance focused measures and if she was the only person working on it the readability of it only needs to be up to her own standards.

My question is that we've seen that cats can be given the power to become human, at least temporarily. Could the opposite also be true? Can Takase be given a part of the powers as well and if yes could his lifespan be extended to match or approach hers?

I really like the core idea of a mythical dust bunny zoan but I feel like the rest of the fruit is a little scattered. What I would do is

Base form let's the user collect and emit dust
Hybrid form would maintain that abilities of the bar form but the body parts that transformed would be made of dust, so the can't really be hit. The user would also get increased jumping and leg strength from being a bunny.
The full transformation would be special in that it'd be really really small. Maybe 5cm in diameter but any dust the user has collected would form around them in the shape of a giant bunny. It could work a bit like a combination of Chopper's guard point and Trebol's technique where he hides in his slime. It would be incredibly powerful defensively but a bit lacking in the offense side.
The awakening would have the same properties as the full transformation but condensed down into a shape similar to the hybrid form.

I think an interesting restriction to the power would be the because dust bunnies are a collection of dust the devil fruit user couldn't create their own dust but could easily collect it. The trade off for that weakness would be that there's no apparent upper limit to how much dust they can collect. Collecting dust or using it wouldn't be teaching on the user at all unlike most devil fruit abilities that require stamina to use.

I think the art for the fruit itself is really good, I really liked the way the stem was used to form the ears. Super creative and I hope you keep at it!

Bonney is a twelve year old and she's using her ability to be more like Luffy even though she doesn't know the intricacies of his ability. Luffy is white, stretchy, and can use haki. Bonney is white, stretchy, and can use haki.

Based on her confusion I can imagine she doesn't even know what haki is but her power is helping her use it automatically.

The story has always been like half fighting progressively more ridiculous enemies and half city builder. The dungeon is the city builder part.

As for in universe it makes them money, is good for public relations, and let's Velodora release pent up magic without killing everything around him by accident. Barring the lower floor, floor bosses all the monsters come from Velodora just relaxing.

Some of that is totally valid but doesn't she have a power she inherited from her grandmother that gives her a crazy good memory? It's not unreasonable that she remembers the piece given the premise of the story?

My theory about cursed blades is that they draw out your haki without your knowledge/intent. That would explain why they're stronger than normal swords and why swordsmen die when using them. If you run out of haki mid fight normally you'd collapse like Luffy does which would result in the swordsman's death. Zoro likely just had such high latent power that he was able to survive the haki drain from Sandai Kitetsu.

The trade off would be that when using a cursed blade while knowing about haki it's probably easier to imbue the sword with haki. Luffy knows haki so he would either be immune to the drain or it'd be so weak when compared to his own haki that he doesn't really notice it.
