Honestly as oppose to being controlled. I wouldn't be surprised if Law used his 'room' fruit to save DF from dieing period. We still have no idea what Law and DF's history is aside from some person named Korra and its possible that Law's hatred of DF got consuming to the point that death is too easy for him. Or may there's something only DF has/knows about Korra Law still wants?
The original plan was to have Kaido go after DF and make it have to flee in fear of him after all. Also, having DF control Laws power through his strings seems either a bit too OP, or just a bit too..."complex" (for lack of a better word) of an explanation if you know what i mean?
Good god was this chapter amazing thou.
I was about to say the same thing about Law/Kora/Dofla... We don't know if Law needs Dofla alive in order to reach his goal. Also, there's the possibility that Law ended up remembering something due to the Hobi Hobi No Mi going off.
Dofla being a puppet there is also possible or maybe it's Kinemon D:
I don't think he's dead yet, and probably will catch Kuros offguard with some bullshit in a way that Kuros remains being a total badass instead of turning out to be fodder vs Dofla.

Doesn't Law have sea stone handcuffs on? How could he use his DF at all?

I don't think Dofla is dead. I also don't think he is a Logia. There is presedent for Paremecia and Zoan fruits to have
"Logia-like" properties. Buggy is the most obvious example, with being able to get cut up and reform himself. Even Moria could pull off Logia-like stuff with switching places with his Shadow, like when Robin tried to snap his neck, or afterwards avoiding Sanji's kick. Devil Fruit abilities are only limited by Oda's imagination, so I'm looking forward to how this plays out.
It would be really unexpected and awesome if a villain could be off'd like that, but this is also a Shounen Manga, and I think it would be more awesome to have Luffy beat him in some epic showdown like with Crocodile or Lucci.

fucking one leg, hell yeah! GO KUROS

No fucking way he died. I mean, take a realistic look on things. We are talking about a possibly top tier fighter, who obliterated Law, had some skirmishes with Jozu and Kuzan.He is pretty fucking fast as well and you are telling me that practically a nobody will defeat a major figure in the series? Anti-climatic. Not only that,but everyone in the room had the time to notice Kyros and Dofla didn't move a single muscle.Sorry, but I see no way Dofla stays dead. I don't think Dofla is dead, but Kyros can hardly be called a nobody... 3000 straight wins in a colloseum located in the new world isn't something that should be taken lightly. Not to mention he was bad ass enough to slice off his own leg to save the king without hesitation. He is a beast, and really killing Dofla this way would be an interesting way to show that no matter how strong or well connected you are, dropping your guard for a second in the new world could mean death. This would mean that we are watching a series that is not DBZ type. Means if you don't have the right allies at the right time. You would be dead. Since you know most shounen manga mean that as long as you are a important character you will never die by just getting caught of guard. Do you actually believe that any important character be it hero or villain is actually going to die? Out of everything that has happened in the manga and all the injuries suffered there have only been 3 deaths.....
Not that I disagree with your overall point but there have been 89 characters that have been shown to die in the series - quite a lot more than the three you claimed.

I love how people complain about a onelegged man in a world where devil fruits and sky islands exist XD Because people are intimately familiar with what the lack of a leg can do; generally speaking running and fighting is one of them. It stretches the suspension of disbelief as a part of a story that you want to enjoy. Devil fruits and sky islands are reacted with by shock generally by the inhabitants of one peice and are internally consistent and so readers can enjoy the story. Some things are things we as a people deal with in everyday life; it's not suprising that people would mention that Curos seems to have an amazing athletic ability for someone with one leg. People also mention the strange proportion some humans have in Oda's artwork, or that hits that should kill a person are shrugged off. we have people run on thin air just fine (Sanji) but running on solid ground with one leg stretchs the suspension of disbelief? Yes. Did you just not read anything I wrote and went straight to just repeating yourself? Because Sanji being able to use CP9 technique is internally consistent, with expanations on CP9 martial arts and stuff set up before hand, whilst running around on one leg without impairment isn't. Maybe it turns out that Curos is using CP9 air jump techniques or some other explanation, but that hasn't been presented yet. It's not a common idea even within shonen whilst stuff like land in the sky and "magical" powers are.The real puzzle is why you are suprised that people point out something that breaks their suspension of disbelief..
because i cant understand how this does so, someone with a good sense of balance would be able to hop around fairly effectively add in the super human phyiscal ability of one piece and is it that wierd that he can jump around extremely quickly? hes basically just doing continuall one legged long jumps

I'm fairly certain he can sow himself back together. Luffy's gear 2nd is based on the fact even his blood vessels are rubber. So it makes sense that the same concept applies to DD, allowing such an ability. As much as I hate to bring up this character, remember Enel restarted his heart at one point, so this could be a similar situation where even though he really did take the damage, he won't stay "dead." The beheaded DD being a puppet is completely plausible as well. Either way, I think that this scene is Oda setting up to reveal the abilities of his devil fruit where we get a cliched "haha I am a string-man blah blah explanation" speech.
Also, I'm all for killing off major characters, but there are better ways to do it.
|
I think this chapter'll work as a setup for Doffy backstabbing Kyros, earning some more reader animosity in the process (though I totally like Doffy, that little speech in Marineford about justice was pure gold).
|
Its better for Doflamingo to still be alive and get a legit fight with Luffy, imo. I want him to go down to something like a Gigant Storm. With the anime version playing something like Dvorak Symphony No. 9 while he does it.

Thus he takes the decapitation by Kyros (who probably didn't use Haki, whether he had it or not, since it is expected that Doflamingo isn't a logia). Either that or Pica created a stone statue of Doflamingo, where Doflamingo can remotely control the statue with his strings. there are plenty of ways but if it pica just making a statue hows he make it look exactly like him well enough to fool everyone? even Mr.3 needs the painter to make his dummies look realistic
Jora. has been rescued already she could in theory have done artwork around a stone done from pica.
I don't think mingo is logia.
You don't have to be logia to be made of a different substance.
Pika pika no mi----- made of light------ logia
gomu gomu no mi----- made of rubber------paramecia
Everything about luffy is made of rubber down to his heart and his blood vessels.
What would be so surprising about everything about mingo being made of strings.
It could be similiar to how brook (also paramecia) reattaches his head.
We already know the strings are hard to see but strong as hell with number of strong characters we have seen being unable to break free (sanji, joz, law)
At the moment when his head was cut he connected the two parts of his spine with several strings which linked them together. And being strongs they bent out of the reach of curos' sword's reach.
I also like the puppet master theory
|
The best theory is that the " DD " that was decapitated was just a fake.
And the real " DD " is probably a whole different person who is a Celestial Dragon wearing that stupid bubble spacesuit.
But I doubt Oda would dare to go that far.
|
and of course sabo can break the arena he is the same level as luffy or more and im sure and elephant gatling would of made short work of it.
It was still badass though
|
Damn, 80 new posts in the thread this morning, I was wondering whether or not another chapter had been released or something. Shit's definitely going down with DD's death.
I still think he's dead.

Young master is actually a kid around Luffy's age?

Sadly very unlikely, since he was at Rogers funeral.
By the way, if Doflamingo dies from this (not happening), he's officially worse than Wapol, since at least Wapol can survive a decapitation like a man.
|
Plot twist:
Dofla is actually a Tenryuubito controlling a puppet.
But the puppeteer is located inside the puppet, like sasori in naruto.
Or Oda has taken a page out of Game of Thrones, which would be sudden. Hell, I can't wrap my head around this chapter even after a good nights sleep.
Please tell me what the hell is happening.
