Quick question for anyone who's caught up to at least chapter 1177 of the manga:
Am I crazy or did Oda simply make an art mistake?
Chapter 1177. Imu [catches?] Usopp's shot and it explodes at point blank range. Skull Grass Blast is a massive explosion, and it clearly takes chunks out of Imu that heal because they're immortal. But Usopp was also caught in the explosion. And at first I thought Usopp was simply knocked out, due to plot armor or his insane durability, but looking at the panel on the bottom right, does it look like Usopp is missing an arm???
This is the very next page:
Usopp is still lying on his back; he clearly has both arms, and his arms have the bracelets he's been wearing. He's eagle spread though. That arm should have been visible in the other panel. But it's not.
Am I crazy? Is it just the angle? Did Oda just make an art mistake? Or is there an explanation for Usopp's insane durability beyond him just having insane durability?
This is supposed to be his arm. It might look like that because of the supposed glow of the blow.
