Creantzy posts Fyolai again after quite literally a year can you believe it

Something about Vegapunk using the dna and blood of a caged and experimented on child to create more caged child experiments and the cycles we perpetuate.

Because what does it mean that all that King has left as proof, that the lunarians were real, that they existed as a tribe, as a people, are seven manufactured children he doesn’t even know about, enslaved as weapons to the government that wiped out the culture they’ll never get to be a part of, and Alber himself another enslaved child lost to something he’ll never fully know.

And what of the warlords? Already young once and hurt by their government, young again and slaves to it. Boa looking at a version of her practically pulled out of time stuck in her worst nightmare or Jimbei looking at a version of himself living out a past he escaped by the skin of his teeth but so many he loved didn’t, even Doffy once again at the mercy of the people that already abandoned him, has Kuma not suffered enough? Given enough, is this child version of him doomed to repeat the same path he already could not escape from . Property of the world government, beholden to the celestial dragons, this version of me that cannot go free?

It’s interesting that Vegapunk joined the government so that he could do the most good, but look at the long line of people right infront of him that he’s hurt with his own hands.

It’s kind of a strange thing—Dazai, Akutagawa, and Kyouka all dislike dogs. At first, I figured it was just a Port Mafia thing. Maybe something to do with their situation pre-mafia (that's probably true, too). But since bsd loves its symbolism, I thought of something else.

Dogs stand for hope, loyalty, and unconditional love—everything these three have been taught to reject. To them, trust gets you hurt, devotion is a trap (except towards the mafia), and love is just another weapon in someone else’s hands. Their walls weren’t built by choice; they were built by the people who came before them.

Dazai taught Akutagawa, and Akutagawa taught Kyouka. A cycle of cruelty, passed down like a rule. Maybe their mentors convinced them that "dog-like" traits were impossible for people like them. Or worse—that kindness was a weakness they couldn’t afford.

And the irony? Back when Dazai still had Oda and Ango, before everything fell apart, his toast was "to the stray dogs." Poor Dazai. The only place he ever felt love was the one he could never return to.

if i had to choose him or the sun i'd be one nocturnal son of a gun

thats THEIR arc thank you very much

Only one chapter of the Stormbringer manga has been released and I'm already in pain

In the catzai au, is Fyodor an actual rat and Nikolai a dove?

perhaps

I will say that I'm glad the God's Knights aren't all serious bloodthirsty menaces like Gunko and Shamrock. They've got some variety and quirkiness to them the same as any new set of One Piece characters which is going to make their eventual displays of power hit even harder.

Kiringham in particular stands out with both his Devil Fruit and his personality.

He's all but confirmed to have a Kirin mythical zoan, but his hagoromo is pure white. Whereas every zoan user or apparent zoan user allied with the World Government has had a black hagoromo. We even see this most recently with Shamrock's Cerberus.

Meanwhile the awakened users with white hagoromos, Luffy and Yamato, have both been heroic and pure of heart.

Maybe this is hinting that Kiringham is the nicest of the God's Knights, or at least genuinely believes that he's a force for good? We know from the Donquixotes sans Doffy that there's still chances for Celestial Dragons to become good people in spite of the toxicity of their culture.

Between him rushing to duty after oversleeping and marveling at how big Elbaf is without any of the typical Celestial Dragon disdain for 'the lower realm', Kiringham's giving off the vibes of a new hire who hasn't set a single toe outside his backyard.

Perhaps in addition to his drowsiness, his running gag will be getting distracted by everything about the outside world that can't be found in Mariejois. Or he might have an "are we the baddies?" moment when it really sinks in just what they're doing by taking the children of Elbaf.
