>you now realize Robin has known Koala and Sabo longer than she's known every other Strawhat

Also Doflamingo is just pulling moves out his ass now. A clone? That still doesn't explain why he survives being decapitated, unless he's a string Logia.. Which he's not.
>> No. 33326

I don't know what his game is, but that doesn't stop me loving it.
>> No. 33327
>>33325
Christ Jim, its like you go out of your way to misunderstand things sometimes.

The one that got its head cut off was never Doflamingo, its a puppet formed from string which he manipulates. She even outright calls it a puppet.

This survival game with him sitting above it all is pretty similar to what Lightning God pulled all the way back in Skypiea though
>> No. 33328
>>33325

He was never decapitated. The puppet he made out of string was decapitated. At least, that's how I read what happened.
>> No. 33329
>>33325

Uh, Robin probably met Sabo and Koala when she joined the revolutionary army during the timeskip buddy. I kind of doubt that she knew them before knowing the Straw Hats.
>> No. 33330
>>33329
I think what he's saying is that during the timeskip her association with the revolutionaries was a longer time period than her time as a strawhat. Something like a little under two years I believe it was?
>> No. 33331
>>33328
How did he make a puppet clone of himself to walk around for the entirety of that conversation/showdown? More importantly, why? Where was his real body hiding? How did his underlings not see him do this?

>>33329
All of pre timeskip takes place in a matter of a few months. She spent two whole years with the Revolutionaries. Read twice, then post.
>> No. 33332
>>33325
He's a puppet master, literally one of his titles is puppet master, come on man you can't honestly think that's an asspull, think back on it, the reason he was so confident in every fight is probable cuz he wasn't there to take the actual damage in past fights.

>>33331
He was very obviously hiding in Pica's stone manipulation.

This is actually far less surprising than you're making it out to be. Heck, I know many of us guessed it was a puppet back when the decapitation actually happened, as it fit Don Flamingo's themes. As for the whens and whys, that's something I'm personally not interested in seeing explained. That kind of over-explaining would just cause a drag on the story at this point. It's an ability that is in line with his powers and personality. I can easily come up with several reasons why Don Flamingo of all people would want to have a body double as someone who has his life targeted.

Personally I was really hoping we were gonna be doing the final showdown with Don Flamingo already. This whole "Island vs. Strawhats" Birdcage thing seems like largely unnecessary stakes-raising.
>> No. 33336
>>33335
Whaaat? They haven't really beaten down Trebol, Pica or Diamante yet, they hadn't even gotten to the SMILE factory, and they only barely got to see Doflamingo himself. There's no way the arc was going to end THAT quickly, without Doflamingo showing off grand plans of his own and showcasing why he and his right hand men are worth being afraid of.
>> No. 33337
Jim confirmed for lacking even rudimentary communication and reading comprehension skills.

Agreed, plus I think it's time for a unification of forces, I'm expecting Law's crew and the revolutionaries to team up with the straw hats.
>> No. 33341
>>33331
With his string string power, because shit was going down before the scene even started, and Pica didn't act even slightly surprised by the marionette clone. The where is the only bit not answered, and really he was probably just hanging in a rafter or under the floor with Pica.
>> No. 33342
>>33339

Jim. Let us be clear. When a decapitated man starts speaking, and then duplicates of him begin appearing, and characters say that they're doubles of him made with his strong powers, when said powers have a puppmaster theme and he regularly uses them to control people's actions, and you are at all confused about the fact that the decapitated version of him was a fake all along? That is a personal problem. Absolutely nobody else had any trouble with this.
>> No. 33343
>>33341
Pica didn't seem surprised because Pica hasn't said one word yet. His face hasn't even been shown up close.

He was a Celestial Dragon and he treats his higher ups really well? Not to mention he's in a huge smuggling ring which means boatloads of money flowing in.

With the devotion they show him, you could almost say they're like his puppets or something.
>> No. 33353

Not to mention having all of your crimes being forgotten if you work for him.

Again with Jet Gatling being useless, god dammit it's one of his best and most defining moves

I'm getting kind of tired of Armament giga-nigga Haki
>> No. 33356
>>33355
>>33354
That's the problem I've always had with haki. Pretty much all of Luffy's attacks are nothing against a good haki user now. It's a slippery slope and I saw this coming a mile away.

It's gonna get to a point where the only valid, "strongest" fights will just be two giga-nigga Vergos punching each other DBZ style.
>> No. 33357
>>33356
Would you prefer Logia domination?
There's not gonna be a Mizu Luffy or non-conductive material situation for all of them. Haki is soon to be/currently kinda is a common thing because it's the next level. With everyone using it it's not going to be an advantage but a necessity and then it'll just allow for all kinds of shenanigans that before were restricted to special abilities/people such as Mantra.
>> No. 33358
>>33357
Its kind of weird we weren't seeing this stuff more with Whitebeards top guys during the war.
>> No. 33359
>>33357
I understand what you're saying, but things were better when there were clever little loop holes and weaknesses to exploit like rubber with Enel or Crocodile being weak to water. Haki is fine until you get to a point where everybody has it and is a master of it, like now. Then it's just boring stalemate.

I'm actually curious to see how Luffy's gonna beat Doflamingo. Cause OP string powers aren't enough, he's a master of haki too, apparently.
>> No. 33360
>>33359
It would be a change if for once someone other than Luffy finished the boss of the arc, especially where there are all this people who have very personal vendettas with Doflamingo, Luffy doesn't have much of a connection.
>> No. 33361
>>33359
Doflamingo's little haki bit didn't actually do anything though? He blocked punches with it (which he could do anyway) and he punched Luffy with it (which just stops Luffy's rubber from tanking it.) His strings are still the real danger by far.
Crocodile and Eneru are the only big arc villains where a little loophole in their power saved the day, and even then figuring that out was just the halfway point. You're really overestimating Doflamingo punching a guy.

>>33358
From how people reacted before we knew what haki was, it seems like people were using it back then and the visual aid just wasn't being drawn in. We're given notice of when it happens now instead of just having to guess like the characters.
>> No. 33362
Haki is like an insta-death spell in a JRPG. Its only useless on random encounter mooks that you could probably kill in one hit anyway. Any and all boss fights will be immune to it somehow, so that you can have a proper epic duel to the death. When the boss uses it, however, it's much more accurate and useful.

This is why whenever the good characters use it it's against someone that doesn't really matter, but when Enel or Doflamingo use it, its suddenly a much bigger deal.
>> No. 33363
>>33361
Doflamingo knows all three forms of haki, something I think only about 2-3 people in the whole series do. We have to assume he's very formidable at it.
>> No. 33365
>>33363
I'm not saying Doflamingo has bad haki. I'm saying it doesn't change the situation much. It means Luffy can't just say "I'm rubber so that doesn't work" but otherwise it's just stuff he could already do. He can punch good and he can block good. So could Crocodile.
>> No. 33366
>>33359
When everyone's Haki, no one is. Hell, Franky's in the Monster Trio and displays none. Situational victories are still achieved, see Usopp!

Franky has acted as an anchor for the crew and has helped them out a lot
