Chapter 1006 — nearing the end of the act?
First off; Sanji being confused by where he can help more is just adorable. Also, where does he end up going?
Does he tune in to Nami (and Usopp) through the walls? What did he find!? WHERE DOES HE GO??
The age of the style don’t matter if you use it correctly, it’s still efficient and you’re one of the protagonist’s mentors, you poor goon.
Nice little reminder that they are, in fact, flying through the air and that arms and legs should be kept within the boundaries of the ride.
Okey, this is... boding. Kind of like foreboding, but as it has now happened in the manga, I’ll just call it boding.
Things have gone very well so far. Although there has been setbacks (the arrival of Perospero, the loss of Kin’emon &co, Sanji getting caught up, etc.), things have gone a little too well. I’ll go out on a limb and say that we are nearing the dramatic/tragic climax of this arc.
And that something will happen.
It’s just panels like this:
You sure you want to say that, Marco?
...especially when you’re dealing with two (to be three) yonko commanders on your own?
And the last, nice but sad, panel that make me go”ooooooh no...”
Will Hyogoro make it? Probably, it’s still a shonen where Oda so far has abstained from showing a lot of current death, but we don’t know. Maybe Chopper won’t be done in time. Maybe Hyogoro turns and has to be put down. Maybe something else happens.
I just got a bad feeling.
