For some reason we never see Luffy squeeze through things like that elastic dude from Fantastic 4.

Nah. His clothes stretching and the buttons on his shirt not getting torn off whenever he uses fusen techniques is more of a plot hole than that. He can choose not to bother escaping by squeezing through.

That's not a plot hole. Its Oda not wanting to draw all the Logias naked during and after fights.

I found this quote in my Humanities book here while taking a quiz. It's about the novel Don Quixote.

"By the end of his life, Don Quixote has learned painfully that his noble aspirations cannot be reconciled with the realities of the world, and he dies disillusioned."

I wonder how much, if any, of Doflamingo's character is based on him?

I don't have the feeling Dofla will die. Oda likes to keep his villains around, or arrested.

As for the basis, well the poetic ending might suit. A lot of characters based on named fictional or real people do share some traits, but not a whole heap. However there's often a reason the name of the person has been tied to the character. Will definitely be interesting to see how Dofla ends up, just on the basis of his name alone =P

The problem is that this Don Quixote doesn't have a single noble aspiration, he is a depraved and cruel bad guy..

So maybe that's the thing.. this Quixote deserves punishment for his crimes so maybe in the end instead of death he changes and becomes and righteous man..

doesn't seem like it tho

OR Doflamingo was naive and noble before and got kicked out out of Marie Joa for that.

That would put the connection to the original Don Qixote in there. Also that would explain his tragic past he hinted at while talking to Law.

Incorrect. She wasn't dying. He could have said "come home", "I'll come and help" or something. Instead he asked her to blow the place and herself up. Though she was already planning to do just that.

She had been missing her heart since Law joined them (Law gave Ceasar his heart as an insurance he'd not betray them, and he got Monet's heart in exchange). She was dying when Ceasar stabbed her heart which he thought was Smoker's, though. That's what stopped her from pressing the button to blow the place up.

Yeah, she would have done it anyway for him, but he did ask her to do it.

exactly. monet, and clearly the rest of the donquixote family, all love dofla. this clearly shows that dofla genuinely cares for his crew. if you have a crew which has that much respect for the captain, without fearing him (look at trebol rofl), then that means the captain is good to his crew.

we're far from captain kuro or crocodile, even ceasar. far from that

That's the thing though, his subordinates are willing to give their lives up for his, but he's not willing to do the same (going by the information we've gotten so far). And he readily accepts/asks his crew to give their lives up at his whim. Those are not qualities Luffy would appreciate. Especially the 'please die for our cause even though it makes me a little sad that you have to die' thing.
