Those, I assume, are actually the soul of the person. And that would explain why the peronality is attached to it. Update: It seems Oda wrote CC's name out in English in the original Japanese raw, as Ceaser Clown. Whatever Oda says, is cannon.

.. while groping her (or should I say "his" ) boobs with "boi~ng" behind him. Totally hilarious
As for smoker, the cigar aside, it's time to see how good he is without his logia ability Anyone thinks Caesar Clown looks like a logia? Some kind of cloud, or mist perhaps? |

Seriously, if you suddenly woke up and found yourself in a beautiful woman's body, wouldn't you at least do something that is similar?
I wonder, now that Sanji is a woman, will he be able to fight other women now? Because you just KNOW that the strawhats WILL fight someone while being bodyswapped. Why doesn't Nami-san want to use beams? |

Yeah, thanks for clearing up the bounty thing, Aohige. Heh, it's been a good while since we had the last translation blunder (though thankfully, they've been much less frequent since MS' reign ended). Still, once again we've been robbed of the chance of having a badass bounty hunter as an arc villain! Curses!

I certainly don't disagree with you on the first part, but why would they need to fight each other? I don't think it's really necessary since Law was never hostile towards Luffy (and while the whole body switch thing may be a bit troublesome, it's not like he did any major harm to the other Straw-Hats). I mean, Luffy can be a bit of a hothead for sure, but it's not like he's incapable of clearing up misunderstandings through a friendly chat..... Well, while it may be true that what Oda says usually goes, he isn't always the most consistent when it comes to his use of English (see: Big Mom/Big Mam). So even if he wrote the name as "Clown" this chapter, there's no telling whether or not he'll change it to "Crown" later on. That being said, I'll use Crown myself since that sounds cooler, anyway (and besides, Buggy is the only one who deserves to be the big, bad clown of the NW! ). |

The body swaps were as amusing as expected. Sanji and Nami's reactions in particular did not disappoint one bit. I laughed so hard when Sanji introduced himself while groping Nami's boobs (Sanji's being too lucky...something bad is bound to happen soon)
I loved the facial expressions the swapped characters have on now; Tashigi looks badass! The samurai's devil fruit ability is pretty cool. I can't wait to see what else he can do.

----- Great chapter. I enjoyed seeing the antics of the SHs (especially the ones in their swapped bodies). The plot is beginning to unfold, which means that now the story is really starting to progress. Discovering who Ceaser Clown is was definitely the highlight for me. A former colleague of Dr. Veagpunk; a current bounty head; and an expert in producing mass-murdering weapons; we're talking about a high-profile character here. I can't wait to discover more about CC.

Well, I didn't understand why everyone was so happy with Crown instead of Clown in the first place. Given he obviously is a mad scientist kind of character, imo Clown actually fits way better than Crown.
Think about it, according to Smoker (and given the trans is correct), he's the worlds leading expert on mass murder weapons. Now what fit's that better, a mad clown (just remember SKs "It"^^) or Crown, which - imo (yes, I do know that is subjective) - comes with the connotation of knightly, valiant, just etc. |

Clown and Crown are two different words with completely different meanings, and as such they each describe Ceasar's character very differently. That's why it matters.

^Funnily enough, I kinda compared Mes to Moria's shadow theft ability in the last thread. But it seems to be clear now that victims of heart theft don't pass out for very long (unless it depends on the strength of the victim, but I won't delve that deep into that for now).....
In addition to what BDK said (and to repeat what I said in a previous post), "Crown" just sounds more intimidating than "Clown". I mean, we're talking about some creepy mad scientist dude who was also revealed to be an expert in WMDs. While he may also turn out to be goofy enough to live up to the "Clown" name, I'd think his whole Dr. Wily schtick would have be of more importance than whatever wacky quirks he might have. Quote:
Do we know for sure that Law was the one experimenting on those babies, though? We did just kind of learn that there's a mad scientist lurking on the island after all. And considering what Law told Luffy about regaining something of his that he lost, it seems implied that his conflict lies with CC, not his pirate rival..... |

While it's true that Law is in cahoots with CC, the main issue is whether or not he willingly decided to become his partner. How do we know that he hasn't been blackmailed instead? THAT is the potential conflict I was getting at. Luffy wouldn't be his enemy, but Caesar..... |
