Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

i personally found it very impactful, but that's in the context of this just slowly peeling back over time how monstrous the celestial dragons actually are. it does feel like oda's rushing though. i also feel that it helps that ginny is pretty explicitly not kuma's partner, and so this lacks the general "ownership of women" aspect that is usually centered in the "sexual violence fuels tragedy for a male character" trope. that said, it's not particularly progressive either since ginny gets off-screened. also bonney being 12 is WILDSpoiler
Yea, that means she was 10 years old pre-timeskip right? That's a insane age to be a pirate captain, especially one of the "worst generation"spoiler
yup exactly. really cool to see ginny's childhood friends be two of her crewmates though.cw
I think the editors had Oda rewrite the chapter honestly, I don't like speculating on Oda's health but it would make a lot of sense if he was trying to find the right balance of tone.Bonney being 12 is wild but I think it's Oda's thematic style of having children be forced to act as adults or have their childhood or innocence taken away (most characters in 1p are this thematic archetype)

i could buy that honestly. it would make a ton of sense to have trouble finding a right way to get this story down. it's easy to forget that it's still theoretically targeted for kids since it's been in print for my entire life.
