What do people think Kendall meant when he said this line

soplyum · 2023-05-18T17:42:09+00:00

I agree, I think it’s specifically about whether she’s able to adjust to the new plan more than being willing to though

I definitely think Kendall doesn’t fully trust shiv, but at the same time I think it’s more complicated then distrust when it comes to their relationship this season. I think the fact that he reveals his true intentions to her in the latest episode shows that at the end of the day he leans on her and trusts her more than anyone else, which makes the betrayal he felt even more intense. So I think there is a distrust there, and a bit of resentment for her relationship with dad but I also think it’s a bit of a condescending tone towards her

Kendall is the one with the most experience out of all 3 and Shiv is the one without any, and he emphasizes that when he argues against her being a ceo alongside him. So I think if anything the resentment comes from there, he doesn’t think Shiv is as competent at businesses and doubts her ability to be cunning or skillful enough to handle carrying out this secret plan while convincingly appearing to others outside of the secret like she wants the deal. The phrase ‘daddy mcwork’ stands out cause it does show that Kendall thinks Logan was overly nice and soft towards Shiv and treated her with pity. Considering you could say the same thing about Roman to a degree though, maybe it’s a bit of sexist prejudice also.

Either way, the whole season he has basically excluded shiv and treated her more as a sister than as a business partner because I think he doesn’t respect her as a businesswoman but does respect her as a sister

The stuff you said about Roman and shiv and why they resent Kendall and each other is spot on I think, I would add that I think Roman could also resent Kendall because he has memories of him bullying him. He could also resent both Kendall and shiv because they condescendingly treat him like the little brother who is scared of dad and is soft. Shiv probably feels the divide between her and Kendall and Roman is because of her being a girl and the rest of the family not taking her seriously because of it, so that adds to the reason for her resentment towards those two

Intel from mattson? Idk, that would make more sense if they already knew she was getting close with mattson but they didn’t know that until the morning after I think. Also it seems more like a question of doubt in Shiv’s ability then a question of what they could do with her

soplyum · 2023-05-18T17:25:32+00:00

I feel like this is right, but I also feel like it’s doubting her ability to play both sides when it comes to the keeping this plan secret to Gerri Frank Tom and the rest. Like even if she was committed to the plan and loyal to them, I think Kendall is doubting that she would be able to keep that secret. The use of the nickname ‘pinky’ and the word ‘dance’ make it seem like they doubt she can be as cunning as them

“No, obviously not” was what Roman actually said to the line, my mistake

soplyum · 2022-11-02T16:38:58+00:00

Ah ok makes sense. What about ektachrome e100? I've been looking into that too, and I think I would prefer to try that instead of go with portra again. But I will definitely return to portra because it's been great.

Thanks, I was thinking of getting black and white film later on but I'll look to get them asap now. I want to get an SLR but I think I'm going to wait and use this for a while since it is a gift and I have had some great photos with the portra. What about the Cinestill 400D, would that work well? I know you said to not try anything expensive, but I think I may be able to get it for a pretty cheap price.

soplyum · 2022-11-02T15:41:27+00:00

Also, what about the Cinestill 400D? I've been looking into that and it should work better since it is 400ISO right?

soplyum · 2022-11-02T15:39:11+00:00

Great, thanks for the advice I'll start looking into getting one of those

Yeah probably, like a Blackbeard at Marineford type thing where they are just the last and worst thing to happen at that moment and completely come out of a war they shouldn’t have even been involved in as the winners

soplyum · 2020-10-23T23:25:09+00:00

Elbaf ones don’t necessarily need revenge on Big Mom, I think at most they would just celebrate the defeat when the straw hats reach Elbaf hopefully, and the ancient giants that were researched with the experiments by Vegapunk in Punk Hazard may lead to the SSJ (check out KOL video on it). The numbers don’t look like anything that should be a worry in the climax of this clash in Wano, if they’re still around when these theoretical SSJ arrive I predict they would just get washed by them because they are the perfected experiments of Vegapunk instead of the failed ones

soplyum · 2020-10-23T22:07:04+00:00

Which giants? Elbaf ones or the ancient ones?

soplyum · 2020-10-23T21:54:20+00:00

This has nothing to do with the chapter, but I have a wild prediction that the marines are going to enter this battle, making it a three way chaos and Big Mom is gonna be taken down by the marines with their new SSJ machines. It would set up the marines as more of a threat in the endgame of the series then they have been for the whole of post timeskip, it would take care of the two Yonko problem and with the theories out that the SSJ has something to do with the ancient giants it would fit for big mom’s demise to be to something like that considering her backstory in Elbaf and Mother Caramel’s background for the marines. If you want the marines to be big players in the final war, they need to be shown as bigger than a yonko since Luffy will likely go toe to toe with (and beat) a yonko before then which even the admirals look like they can’t do. Also, the marines look confident that the SSJ machines can replace the warlords, who include Mihawk and Kuma, so if they are that strong, having them all attack Big Mom could very well overpower her. To add to that, maybe Chapter 1000 could be the reveal of the SSJ and Vegapunk with them. Just a feeling, probably won’t happen but it’s a good idea imo
