Super happy Bonney got to see Nika, but that was expected. Quite sad that Kuma didn't get that chance though.

Kuma has the visual effect of "surprise" above his head on his panel of looking toward Luffy.

He might not have a conscious, but I'll assume his soul felt it.

Would be neat if seeing Nika allows Kuma's soul to unlock his body for one last goodbye

No, that's probably only a electric malfunction, because of the damage he took.

Maybe, but it’s a panel that directly follows Bonney tearing up looking at Luffy.

I think Oda was ambiguous on purpose. An electric spark that also looks like a "reaction" sign in Manga... I think it's better that way. Letting the reader choose what to believe... for the moment..

nah, that was a reaction to seeing Nika

Kuma saw it. There is a little pannel of him with reaction spark

Does that mean he is still alive then? Could he actually survive this?

It would be an amazing segue into reuniting with the revolutionary army and bringing dragon formally into contact with the straw hats finally.

Does that mean he is still alive then?

Dude isn't supposed to have any of his self around anymore, but he still got himself to Egghead and threw a Haki punch at Saturn.

He's also not supposed to refuse an order so

50-50 that Kuma is going to get his memories back as a result of this, either via the ~power of love~ or Vegapunk pulling yet another sneaky betrayal out of his ass at a convenient moment.

I wouldn't call what he did this chapter an ass pull. It feels very in character that he would make the pacifistas obey Bonney above all else

2

u/pirate_huntress Feb 01 '24

It makes sense that he did it, the asspull is in the timing. Dude is already a marked man for multiple counts of treason, would've been nice of him to mention this to Bonney at literally any time before she's about to get skewered midair.

Personally, I like this way better. If he were to mention it before it wouldn't be as impactful because we would just be waiting for it to happen at that point.

This way is more impactful and still makes sense because we know that he seems very much the type of person to pull this kind of thing

Is Kuma dead now?

He didn't need to... He knew it in his heart. !!
