User blog:Rhavkin/Nothin' says Lovin' like somethin' from the Oven

I'm writing a chapter review!!

So Chapter 886, What did we get?


 * 1) Oven was an obvious obstacle from the moment he arrived at Cacao Island but being cunning and using Chiffon was finally the type of character depth we (or at least I) was waiting for for him. I guess being pointed out as a monster get a new perspective now.
 * 2) Sanji's speed. Wow. Yes, being fast enough so no one could see you is not something new in One Piece but still, Sanji has really made the best with escaping from Okamas for two years straight.
 * 3) Pound being an aggressive dad in a good way.
 * 4) Puuding's reaction after Sanji saved Chiffon.
 * 5) Puuding's reaction after Sanji saved Chiffon.
 * 6) Puuding's reaction after Sanji saved Chiffon. Can't seem to stop mentioning it.
 * 7) Puuding's reaction after Bege reaching Cacao Island before the Sunny or the untracked Germa defiantly something to note in the Fire Tank's favor.
 * 8) "This is your father's way of life" I will follow you to the end papa.
 * 9) Do you think Oda has foreshadowed a connection between the Minks and the moon enough?
 * 10) Luffy still has room to grow. I wonder if Haki is something that is improved by battles against strong opponents, does that mean that Zoro's and Sanji's (who trained against elite members of infamous organizations daily for two years) Haki is stronger then Luffy's (who had a father-son like relationship for eighteen months before becoming the lord of Rusukaina)? I feel like Rayleigh could have stay and just fight seriously against Luffy a couple of times before leaving.

That was what I like to call an "in-between chapter": not much of a plot, very little build up and most of the enticement goes to the single\double page that shows what's happening with other characters. All in all, I think we can agree this chapter is more Oven based then anything else so I'm a bit lukewarm on it, and I kinda hope Oven wouldn't be beaten in awhile.

What's to come?
 * 1) Oven fight.
 * 2) Cake delivery.
 * 3) Full moon.
 * 4) Return to the Mirro-World.

My guess for the future is that the cake will be delivered to the Nostra Castello to protect it from the Big Mom pirates, and that the moon will be a slight power up so we will be surprised by the more powerful mink when they use it on Wano. I doubt all of this will be happening in the next chapter but at least there is no brake next week.
