Some women just like guys that wear more makeup then them.
Considering Mother Caramel's age in this chapter and having a couple of 70+ year old Marines and Pirates running around in the current story, this isn't really a deterrent in expecting them to show up/have shown up in some form.

She could still very well have some type of mental illness, despite being devious.
The way she acts around her children, the way she acts around food, the way she wanted to rip off body parts of other races because they don't look normal...
There are red flags that there is something off about Big Mom.

Isn't sociopathy considered a mental illness?

2 more I would say. Next chapter clears up what happened to Mother Caramel, and one more that solidifies Linlin's shift to her current personality.

There really aren't that many One Piece characters over the age of 60 in the current story. So far we've had Dorry, Broggy, Hajrudin, Big Mom, Kureha, Brook, Crocus, Whitebeard and Zephyr (if you count him). And half of them were seen in this past chapter alone. While a few of the upper government officials could be that old too, it's unlikely they were hanging out at that time on Elbaf with everyone else over 60. If anything, Oda could be setting up future characters like he was with Koala in the Fisher Tiger flashback.

3 or 4 minimum
That way to many.
This week's chapter was great. I can't wait for the crew to eventually reach Elbaf (hopefully). I liked how the Sheep's House has a human sized door cut into its normal, giant, sized door and I'm curious to see what that tree and the castle are like. I wonder if Gerth will still be in Elbaf when the crew eventually arrives there.

I was surprised how this flashback went. I suspect only one more chapter, reveals how Mother Carmel left. I don't think it'll show us how she became a pirate. Maybe, maybe not.

The weather going bad and only a sunray shining upon mother caramel was interesting... was that just for art or might she have been a devil fruit user.
I also still wonder if there is a global religion in One Piece.
Linlin is weird. Who knows why she is so big, we may also get to know why she dislikes the giants so much.. but why did she want ceasar to discover how to make giants.

I think it's more of a personality disorder.
Well this is Oda.
Surprised BM wasn't too. But if you think about it she wasn't ugly either, just too big.
That's par for the course. I'm surprised Big Mom wasn't the looker this time around.

About 7 chapters for Law's

Law's flashaback gave us Corazon. Man, I think he might be my favorite character in the entire series. Everything about him was amazing, from his juxtaposition as Doflamingo's brother, to his status as an undercover marine, to his relationship with Law, to his design, to his seemingly useless fruit that he later revealed he's really good at using in creative ways. What a fantastic character.

She was part of the trio of Garp, Sengoku and Tsuru, so she's definitely way up there on the power scale. Definitely the least explored of the old era of marines. Her fruit is weird though. Laundry fruit? Get outta here with that lol
It reminds me of Sanji's version of Big Mom. I am surprised he didn't have a breakdown when meeting her.

If he can get that a yonkou deserves more
Yes, I'm hoping for at least 3 more chapters.
Probably wanted control over people she didn't like.
She's not a sociopath. At least not as a child. She genuinely thought she was helping. And she's throwing a tantrum because she's a five year old who isn't being allowed to eat for 12 days for the first time in her life. It's not her fault she's insanely powerful.
Now as an adult, much of that does not apply.
She couldn't induct real giants into her family because of Lola, so she decided she would just make some.
EDIT: Also, anyone notice Lola and Chiffon take after their maternal grandmother?
Oda is not going to spend over half a volume on someone flashback at this point.

We've already spent one chapter on a room full of people waiting for BM to react to the photo's destruction. So I don't put Oda past wasting at least a month's worth of chapters reminding us how mindlessly selfish and destructive Linlin is. I forget how long doffy's flashback was but it also felt by and large like filler. Sometimes just having a bad guy do bad shit in the present is enough. I don't also need to see them as a child vowing vengeance on all the good things in the universe.

Well that's because his was mixed in with laws
Along with several cuts here and there for dressrosa flashbacks of how he took over

Probably less, since it was broken into chunks that were revealed here and there.

Hmm smoothie just seems to be a giant juicer. But tsuru can potentially put ppl on a spin cycle,Dry,Rinse,Clean etc
Disclaimer i have no idea how that works combat wise but it sounds cool

Whitebeard's flashback was short as hell. Being an emperor doesn't mean you deserve a flashback that takes up a whole volume.

It's not the backstory I mind, it's the timing of when Oda decides to lay it on. Cramming it in just as a climactic point of inflection is reached is Bleach-tier fuckery. But at least I have faith it won't be a year before Bege pulls that trigger, for better or worse.
