#blackbeard hurts my brain wtf is wrong with him

[hauntingblue]

Impel down part 2.... save me Bon Clay.... Bon Clay save me...

IS HE GONNA EAT THE EGGS??? VILE!!

This was so hard to watch (and hear) in the anime but it's not better here 😭

THEY ARE GOING TO TAKE ACE AWAY AND LUFFY IS STILL FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE LITERALLY!!!

This is just so beautiful omg... hello robin.... I miss you...

Luffy is so loved.... 🥺🥺

Look at him... 🧍🏻‍♂️

LEAVE HIM ALOOOOOOONE!!! also no badass fight while in chains??? I loved that fight.... how he grabbed a polearm with his teeth? Crazy

Killing myself. Look at him. And I don't even get a chained up fight.... what's next.... no scenes of him being deprived of the sun by the clouds on the ship to marineford??? Please god no

Here it fucking is... hello crocodad...

JIMBEI I LOVE YOUUUUUUU WDYM YOU WANT TO DIE IN BATTLE

They have the same face akdjakjeka >:[

His fucking face?? Aksjaksk :-}

"Two?! Where's the other one?" His head is empty empty

Sanji pack it up akdjakska

Ending it all.... he looks so good... sorry about the execution

Diabolical combination of title and cover art

JIMBEI!!!!!!!!! PUNCH HIS HEAD CLEAN OFF AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!!!!!!

😭😭😭 did he feel guilty????? For not knowing???? Omg.....

This is so silly why is he enjoying himself akdjkasj (I know why)

"He was unable to turn back" ending it all. He was unable to let go of blackbeard after he threatened his brother so he fought and got captured. AND THEN WHAT HAPPENS IN MARINEFORD AFTER HE IS FREED. LUFFY IS IN DANGER AGAIN AND HE IS UNBLE TO TURN BACK! SICK AND TIWSTED! And also because letting him go would defile the honor of his fathers crew. Which is also why he stopped to face akainu in marineford. To defend his father's honor. Should we all kill ourselves....

I am treasuring this punch forever. Until he can give him what he deserves (painful and excruciating death)

Blackbeard knowing about haki and noticing luffy is stronger what the hell I mean he was in the new world but damn. Fuck him idk

Luffy they can't even comprehend how big and full your heart is <3

In a way... daz bones is zosan's lovechild.... bear with me here

Now did luffy or mr 3 call buggy captain and why?

I <3 luffy's thinking face

Incredible.....

HE IS!!!! LUFFY LOVES JIMBEI SO MUCH!!! THERE WAS NO WAYYYYY HE WOULDN'T JOIN THE CREW!!! AND THIS IS BEFORE MARINEFORD!!!!

CAN LUFFY PLEASE PAY HIM BACK??? PLEASE 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

These issues just made me love everyone so much akjhdjfshak yes even buggy and mr 3.... they found their way after all.... luffy your heart is so big it fits everyone in

I adore Izzy and Stede's interactions in s2e3, because they're so consistently proving to Izzy that he does not know Stede like he thought he did.

Going into s2, even as Izzy begins to realize that he fucked up by threatening Ed until Ed went so hard back into the Blackbeard persona, Izzy has two big assumptions.

he knows Ed better than anyone else

Stede Bonnet is his rival

And in s2e3 Stede is just consistently responding to those with "??? wtf is your problem?"

Izzy telling Ed that he knows him better than anyone else was already laughable. At this point in his arc, he's still talking about Ed like some crazed animal with erratic, unpredictable behavior. He does not talk about or treat Ed like a person with feelings. But when he starts in trying to tell Stede about how Ed was a "wild dog" (that line still makes my lip curl, jesus) and makes Ed out to be wildly cruel by saying deserting him "was better than he would've done for us" despite how Ed literally did just that in the s1 finale, Stede consistently meets him by thinking of Ed's feelings, not taking the bait, and feeling awful for how much his actions hurt Ed. He thinks of Ed as a person and refuses to conform to the language Izzy uses.

Izzy, in s1 and at the start of s2, sees Stede as a sort of romantic rival at the same time as he clearly considers Ed and Stede's love for each other as a whim, a passing crush. Neither Ed nor Stede think of Izzy in romantic terms, this is abundantly clear, and Izzy (world's most repressed man) doesn't have a fucking clue what love looks like. Izzy spends so much of this episode trying to get a rise out of Stede, pretending he was the one who slashed up the painting, challenging Stede to yell at him after Stede sees what he thinks is Ed's dead body. And Stede doesn't give him fucking anything. He's just constantly kinda fed up with Izzy. His mental energy is elsewhere - he doesn't even look at Izzy when Izzy tries to thank him near the end of the episode.

Absolutely fascinating to think about where Izzy's mind must have been this episode. He learned he was expendable to Ed in s2e1, here he's learning that he doesn't take up literally any space at all in Stede's brain, either. Stede constantly proves him wrong by making thoughtful, empathetic guesses about Ed's mental state, and when he brings up the "doggy heaven" reference, something he wouldn't have known about had Ed not told him, it confirms that he was a confidante for Ed, something Izzy never was. Izzy never understood either of them, and this episode is him getting to realize that.
