@Z e r e f, did you really just continue this God-forsaken discussion? Yeah, I'm not doing that sh*t. Reply to me on my profile instead if it's so important to you.

I don't even get why you have been bothering with involving in such a discussion if you think it's shit. Why would it be so important to me? Is posting a reply same as it being important to me? What's wrong with it? Whatever , if you don't want to get involved then I have no interest in wasting my time with it.

I meant continuing the discussion on a completely new thread. Our discussion was, to me, about last week's chapter. Discussing and arguing are two of the things I enjoy the most on the Base, but I'm not going to start writing walls of texts in a completely new discussion thread, just because the previous one was closed. If you wanted the last word, you could've messaged me or something.

It's not a personal chat otherwise I would have done the same. And if you take a good look at this thread same topics are being repeated in this thread which is why I have bothered my self by posting it in this thread . Again if you don't want to continue then I have no reason to waste my time with stuff like this as I gain nothing from it.

I guess now is as good a time as any to start predicting what will happen to Doflamingo after Luffy beats him, as it may be answered next chapter.

I have two guesses: one is that he is arrested by Fujitora (which would leave the logic hole of if he can arrest him then why can't he attack him as they are both basically the same thing, either way would be removing Doflamingo as the ruler of a island).

The second is that Kaidou's men show up and capture Doflamingo to take him back to see the boss, as I doubt Kaidou is a huge fan of failure.

So Doflamingo gets scared shitless of hearing Kaido's name yet somehow has the balls to talk down on Sengoku in his head office? Also Blackbeard/Akainu are the ones most talked about being final villians in whatever order they come. I've seen several comparisons between Doffy and Mihawk as to who is the strongest Shichibukai and everyone was torn between the two untill they showed him in Dressrosa. Also, Jozu is the guy who made Aokiji bleed, Crocodile is fodder, Luffy beat him early on in the series without any gears yet he requires Gear 4th against Doflamingo post timeskip, that should tell you he's an ant compared to Doffy and Jozu wasn't having trouble with him at all. Oda nerfed Doflamingo hardcore, he could stop Jozu with parasite yet somehow he can't seem to do it to Luffy, that alone is complete bullshit. He hasn't even attempted to do it, also all these named attacks are nothing compared to the what he could do before, all he had to do was move his finger and limbs were gone, these current attacks might seem more powerful but they're only more fancy, he's not being effective with his string ability at all. As pointless as Sasuke having Amaterasu shuriken compared to just using Amaterasu to manifest where he wants instantly.
Personality plays a big role in who gets shit spoken to them. Doflamingo knows that he can talk all the shit he wants to Sengoku because of his Shichibukai title, and because Sengoku is a calm and reasonable fellow. He won't react to taunts and bluffs the way Kaido would. Kaido is hotheaded, violent and wrathful. Doflamingo is wary, not scared, of him because, unlike Sengoku, Kaido would murder him on a whim. It's not about power; Doffy knows that, by portrayal at least, Sengoku has the ability to murder him, same as Kaido. Unlike Kaido, Sengoku won't murder him over taunts and bluffs, so he can afford to do so.

As for Parasite, it's clear we don't know how it works. An explanation may never be given, but until it does, it's not a valid point to say "If Jozu can be controlled, why not Luffy." Doflamingo moving his finger to cut off limbs was simply his Five-Colored String attacks. The reason it seemed so epic and amazing before is because we didn't know how he was doing it. We've seen Luffy withstand his strings, so it makes no sense to expect Doffy's strings to be cutting off his limbs.s

It could be some random naruto fanboys rating this chapter a 1/5 when they didn't even read it.
but this chapter was meh, it wasn't bad but I can easily see how some more casual OP fan would dislike teh chapter, for me it was 3/5 but not everyone is as into OP as me and you so they gave it a different rating

True, I can see why people would rate it either a 2 or 3. I got no problem with that. It's just that there were only a small amount of people who commented saying the chapter was 1/5 rating but the majority thought it was either a 2-3 out of 5 rating (which doesn't match the poll results). I know not everyone comments on their thoughts on the chapter in the discussion thread.

I shouldnt of used the phrase naruto fanboy but I meant OP hater, my bad. :p There may be some people who thought the chapter was a 1/5 and were serious but I doubt 11 people thought it was that bad and gave it a fair judgement (i.e. not giving a poor rating solely on the fact that we're on break next week).

I was under the impression that everyone had figured it out at this point, when you have the Straw Hats leading the revolution and a rubber guy fighting Doflamingo, it really isn't that hard to put the pieces together.

But we are talking about pirates so they may not be that bright.
They don't really have internet and social media.

A lot of people are still under the assumption that Luffy is supposed to be a giant based on his hype.
