Lol i got to thank Oda for actually locking Luffy up next to Kidd. Now I can get some badass Luffy-Kidd jailbreak duo scenes that I wanted.
Also Kidd having Kings Haki was expected. We all know how similar Kidd is to Luffy and of course Luffy wasnt going to be the only one from the SN bunch to have it.
Like others have said I expect that fishbone guy to be a retainer of Oden who's probably been locked up for 20 years. That would explain no one knowing who he is.
A good chapter now on to Act 2.
Never really saw Kidd and Luffy as similar and I still don't.
Yes Kidd had some initial hype when the Supernova's were introduced as he was the only one with a higher bounty than Luffy, but Shakky explained that that was because he was far more brutal, in particular with civilians. After that he didn't receive much development.
Luffy's philosophy has always been that it all should be an adventure, while Kidd has a more survival-of-the-fittest attitude. He doesn't hesitate to stomp and torture everyone and everything that gets in his way. While Luffy prepared himself for 2 years, Kidd went through the NW head on, resulting in him losing an arm and damaging the entire left side of his body. If anything I would say they are the complete opposite of one another, which makes their dynamic so interesting.
The only aspect I see them identical in, is that they do not subjugate themselves to anyone else. Most of the other Supernova have been rather pragmatic in their approach, but Luffy and Kidd never yielded, no matter the situation.
