Another page I drew for the @opvsdayzine I ran!! I tried something new and lost all my files and had to redo this piece at the last month.. it was a hell of a ride..
[Wano manga spoilers- After the liberation of Wano, someone who is not Kyoshirou comes to see Orochi in his cell. A very self-indulgent post-canon alternate ending. Read it on AO3 here.]
Something is breaking.
Something is breaking, his ears ringing with a grating sound like the rubbing edges of broken glass, and he can’t tell if it’s inside his head or outside of it. He was right he was right he was right, and he doesn’t know whether to laugh or scream or both, because he was right.
He’s not even sure what happened. It was all so impossibly fast, twenty years of triumph brought to ash in a single night. How did it happen? How did it happen? He’d been so careful, he’d known, he’d known their every movement and every plan, he’d had Kanjurou-
His strength is sapping, seeping out through the cold seastone locked around his wrists, and it’s all he can do to keep from slumping boneless to the floor.
The sheer indignity of it all- imprisoned in his own castle, the castle that always should have been his by right, dank stone pressing against his back, left alone with nothing but his thoughts and the breaking inside his head. How dare they? How dare they visit such injustice upon him- upon the rightful shougun of Wano-
Laughter, low, darkly amused and deeply familiar, and he jerks his head up against the draining weakness in his veins.
I have no words to describe what all of us just saw… This is historic…
1- First of all… Hiyori’s words to Orochi were precious, she literally humiliated him much more than he already was. And the drawing of her crying with anger and sadness at the same time… beautiful (But please, Oda, KILL OROCHI)
2- The hito hito no mi model Nika. First of all Luffy is still Luffy, it’s just his awakening, probably Joyboy had this fruit and that’s why Sunisha says that Joyboy is back. Now, it is very likely that Luffy’s awakening is inspired by the old style of cartoons (called rubber hose animation), where many scenes represent the characters as if they were made of rubber (Tom and Jerry, looney toons, mickey mouse, and a long etc), in fact in the same chapter we see how the entire combat sequence is quite funny and caricatured, even ridiculous. Oda knows what he’s doing, don’t worry.
