There are more series that deserve that treatment. Hopefully Tar-chan gets a collab with One Piece for the Oda assistant stuff and people remembers it was one of the most important early 90s series.

Now Scorpio has really joined the party.

XP Farming for Virgo.

Dina can escape via Gate but it feels like Lufas underestimates her own abilities. Pretty sure she can think of a way to stop but at least they addressed the elephant in the room.

Libra really steals the show .

Bioware Tribute!

R.I.P.

I'm slowly approaching peakiest parts of Wano and previously when I watched Wano arc week to week I forgot one thing. Fact that Orochi is extremely annoying. In fact I think his VA put extra efforts to make him sound as obnoxious as possible. Even his laugh sounds like random gurgling half time. Anyway, on topic of Orochis minions. I seen this before but I still can't get over how evil Kanjuro turned out to be. Like where in the world he kept all off that? Sure we seen people who are using image of most trusted and loved characters for their own gain like Doflamingo or Crocodile (by ordering Bon Clay around but still) but what Kanjuro did is something else. It's just so horrible that even his tragic past can't justify it. Also wow, fact how delusional and childish is Big Mom is beyond me. Even as old lady she still believe she's "just" only because Mother Carmel once told her she can do no wrong. Also it's almost hilarious that she talked about "humanity and justice" while also being about to ruin Wano even further alongside with Kaido. And not just that, they wanted to plunge entier world into endless war. Where is humanity and justice in this? But in this almost final part of Wano most interesting thing is Luffys first defeat. After all we still don't know how come he could apparently use "voice of all things" to communicate with Momo. I mean sure, subconsciously but how did he get there? Seriously, at that moment final act of Wano brought more questions than answers and it wasn't touched again to this point. But I like how much relevance Luffys past experiences gained during raid on Onigashima. For example someone who never seen weapon being drenched in conqueror would never realize that's the reason why Kaidos attacks are soo powerful and heavy. Luffy saw it really early and now could put that knowledge to use. Fact that it was Hancock who was first person we seen who was able to put haki into things dosen't spark joy though. It is interesting that she is THIS strong but you know, it still annoys me because I don't like her.

Btw, while observing various side characters during Onigashima raid I realized that Loki already existed back then, just in pieces. Snake gifter Poker had Lokis habit of sticking out his tongue and hiden eyes (I would mention his "pointy beard" but that was actually just chin so you know) and Who's Who had long pink hair and also hiden eyes. Once I finish Wano I will actually watch Egghead arc for first time because I took break so episodes could stack but I heard during Dorry and Broggys "rescue mission" some pretty strong pink haired giant showed up. So mayby Oda had some ideas on how Loki should look for some time already but when they didn't "clicked" for him he just reused them for other characters. I'm glad he gave Loki goatie instead of following Pokers face design. He would look really stupid with long chin.




Btw, I don't remember if it was like that in manga too but it seems like other gifter had misfortune of getting Killers SMILE power. Poor dude will stuck as head and tiny arms sticking out of elephant.

Do you guys think Goddess realm is next or it will be skipped? We see Mael passing his grace to Gawain in one of the sketches that means he is still alive? Or maybe it will be after he dies?

After years and years of simply getting ignored, the GC showing up just to be destroyed by Chanceloth js a bit underwhelming. But the real problem is that GR hasn't been an option for his invasion at all. Cath only thinks about the FR and Lioness, and Lancelot chose the only other realm void of his own family, the DR. And now that he has reached his limit, and can't control Cath's will like before, the next target would most probably be decided by the Cat.

The sketches you mentioned has a few line of dialogues and it's hard to be recognized and translated online. But the fan translation provided here didn't say anything about Mael handing the grace to Gawain, he rather recognized the new owner of it. Those early sketches aren't proof of an actual development in the sequel, but alongside several other sources, they don NOT support the idea that Mael is in possession of the grace.

The separation of the realms might make it impossible for GR to be relevant in 4KotA. A journey to the GR might happen in the short period of time between Chanceloth's defeat and the separation. Mael may descend on the island of sky people to talk with Gawain, Tristan, and others. Or they may use some special magic to visit him after the realms are separated. Regardless, the idea of a GR expedition right now is not backed by the current plot, and it may add nothing more than humiliating angels for the Gazillions time and erase them from existence one and for all!

New Ichikawa series.
