Protip: Caribou attacked the mermaids only a few chapters ago, and this being mentioned shows that he abandoned them to get treasure instead. The fact that he was mentioned at all, means he wasn't forgotten. It isn't a long span enough chapters to say Caribou has been forgotten by any means, especially, as I said, he's mentioned to be doing something in this very chapter.

And then the Laughing Banana's and Angry Grimaces of the thread will be there to talk about how obviously people are orgasming again, how they're so blind by Oda and their fanboyism.
And so the cycle will continue.

So, am I the head or am I the tail? :)
Reading [B]Gacha Gacha[/B] now. It's a relaxing romantic comedy manga peppered with delicious fan service all over the place. Pleasant looking art.
Also, [B]Hotel[/B]. A great one-shot manga about an AI left behind after mankind is annihilated to extinction.

Only a few chapters ago? It was frikkin months ago, and it's a footnote now. It makes no sense to devote this tiny amount of time when everything he did was given far more attention earlier in the arc.
Months but 28 chapters isn't really enough to be forgotten, or else Sasuke too is forgotten in the recent Naruto arc when he isn't. Both characters just haven't appeared cause it isn't their time and place to appear at the moment.
Also an interesting rumor floating around on the new crew member situation, but it's probably fake but still interesting:

I read Hotel like 2 years ago and I had no idea this last picture was from the same manga.
Well we still haven't seen the island destroyed yet, so something fucked up has to happen anyway. Noah doesn't do it, Hody doesn't do it, so who does? It has to be Luffy.

Gacha Gacha was alright and i actually liked both parts.
i'd consider that a long ass time. it was right at the beginning of the arc and was looking to be set up as a plot thread... and then... absolutely nothing came of it.
the other thing is that they made a huge deal over how much mermaids are worth. does the treasure compare to that? why could he not have taken both?
like i mentioned, there were many things about this chapter that i hated. jimbe joining is the least surprising of it.
Are we still assuming the island will be destroyed?
I'm assuming it is, and I think it eases expectations if we expect it rather than just brushing it off. As the manga says, Madam Shirley's predictions are never wrong.
Well, it's not like the prediction is that Luffy will literally destroy the island. It is most likely to be something completely dumb.
Well assuming he took the treasures using his swamp ability, maybe he couldn't carry both mermaids and the treasures?
He doesn't have infinite hammerspace?

Gacha Gacha was one of those manga I enjoyed to read yet couldn't place a finger on precisely why. It moves rapidly, development seems shallow, and there's a lot of facepalm inducing moments ... but ... damn it, it's fun, enjoyable, and just overall pleasant. The second half a bit less so, but I place more of that blame to the length of it compared to the first; some parts feel stretched out to pad the count, though I suppose that is just typical of the genre and I shouldn't complain too much about it.

I think Luffy will destroy the island but not until Noah is rebuilt.
Noah has to be the boat that all the civilization on Fisherman Island will ride to the surface while Luffy destroys Fisherman Island. Fisherman Island has to be destroyed for the bad history it contains and so the people can finally move on with their lives.
Well thats my theory...

I'm really feeling the "Luffy eats too much meat/parties too hard" island "destroying" theory. We shall see though.

This is like reverse Inuyasha, but not as terrible (yet). Not amazing either, but it has a neat concept. Hasn't really found its identity yet though, but I'll keep reading to see if the mana naming thing gets fleshed out.

It's probably like what everyone said, that they'll just use the Joker cards + other big-miss cards to win. But I was thinking of another possibility.
Coco could be planning on winning by default by making Livebearer not finish. Giving him the alcohol could have something to do with this, since he's manipulating what Livebearer eats. The other Joker card too.
She could be the Tsundere. Tsun towards the crew.
And, with some help from Sanji, could also fill the coveted BDSM spot.

Maybe it was not meant in a literal way. It was maybe meant as destruction of the hatred of fishmen have towards humans, therefor destroying the history of fishmen island.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
This series has been going for 24 years and they aren't even really together.
idk, I still kinda like AMG

Seems like a cute but dramatic comedy. Of course the main character has to be the only one without super powered eyes, but whatever, not like this is an action manga (yet). I actually do like the concept of someone being shunned for NOT having a power. Only can remember something like that in Black Sigil.
Expecting some major mood whiplash here.

I really dislike AMG, but it's weird how it's from the same person who did You're Under Arrest, which is great fun...

It's hard to read that in one go, it's just one of those series that you aren't supposed to expect to go anywhere, I think. If you read it all at once, you're just waiting for a conclusion that will never come.

I don't think it had anything to do with power but knowledge he was the only person to get to Raftel .
We also know he was willing to tell WB how get there but WB did not care about it .
About Caribou did people really think we would have 3 main villains this arc .
There was no way the SH were going to fight Caribou once Hody was still up and running plus they did not even fight Vander Decken which was a bigger part of the arc .
About that rumor the last part is what make think it's stupid but hey you never know.
He still needs to have been a beast though. That's basic.
First of all, pirate king was a title that he gave himself after getting to raftel; since seemingly nobody had done it before (or at least in recorded history), it was a feat worthy of getting any title he wanted.
Whitebeard on the other hand, had no interest in such feats.
No, people simply started calling him that. Rayleigh outright says to the Strawhats in the Sabondy that Roger had no interest in such titles.

Yeah he was a beast most likely but him getting to Raftel is what made him the Pirate King.
Rayleigh said after he did that it was the people who start calling him Pirate King even thought he was dieing and names did not mean much .
WB could have gone Raftel but we found out he did not care about going .
People wanted to see Caribou but he was not going to play any part of this arc until it was over .
The last chapter made sense that while a War was going he took advantage of it and steal all the treasures.
Same for all the other stuff.

Pretty funny chapter. Flan, Mukuro, and Verde kept me laughing, as well as Dino. Eliminating two teams completely in the next battle will be intense, unless Uni's prediction is wrong.

Bwahahahaha. First Wendy hates the cow because she is jealous of Erza having boobs and than the training is over. Bwahahahhahaha. I can´t wait for the upcoming ass pull power up for Fairy Tail to beat the strongest guilds in Fiore. It was a very enjoyable chapter.

Is it really an asspull when Natsu just tries harder at this point? It's really not since he does it every single arc. It's just stupid.
He just thinks about his Nakama and gains all his MP back. I've never understood why so many translators believe the term "nakama" is somehow an untranslatable concept and has to remain untranslated. One Piece and Fairy Tail scanners are notorious for this, but they have this in almost every series in which the term is used.
BTW wtf was with that scene in the last chapter with Natsu trying to get into the women's bath area? I wasn't even aware he understood there was another gender, much less being interested in them

Fairy Tail
That was a awesome troll chapter i must say lol.
Yep i am with you on this one.
It's become the norm now that you expect it to happen every arc .
It not happening would be more of a shock .
HSD
It's still fun seeing ways he comes up with for fan service .
Also good chapter .

Good stuff for a Christmas chapter. It was downplayed a little bit though, I expected things to be more serious, considering the issue here. 5 fucking months.
Anyway if we're not getting Switch next chapter then man, what the hell. I've been bracing myself for it for a while.
Kagami
Oooh, a changeup in the rules will be great right now. I approve.
Still stalemate, though.

Because 'comrade' obviously means that they're commies and we don't want that now, do we?
I only remember Capsule and it being average. But like zero details. I might have to re-read but I remember not liking Secret. But that might have just been because they
character ditched for the sequel IIRC
I liked the anime. Urd and Hild are best. But I won't read the manga that strings that shit out for infinity. Ad nauseum.
You are wise.
I agree with you on "nakama", I roll my eyes anytime I see it.
One Piece I can sorta understand why they keep it since it's become this "untouchable" translation in the community. To the point I am sure people would rage if a scan group decided to put in "comrade" or "friend". But any other series...yeah cut that crap out.

The episode with the Golden Nightingale killed me. There was just one sight gag that I laughed at for like a week or two.
Yea, Troubadour's lol ending was classic (peace, I'm out!). It's a good thing that Urd takes that in stride cause she is so awesome. Dem potions and ceiling camping.
