BSD ch. 121 spoilers undercut
The more Fyodor seems to very intentionally torture Atsushi the more certain I am that he's trying to push Atsushi into a certain psychological state of mind needed to act as the Bookmark. This one panel stood out to me cause it seemed like Fyodor was trying coax this specific reaction out of him. I don't think he's just taking immense pleasure from Atsushi's suffering for the fun of it, I think he wants him angry. He wants him broken. He wants...well something from Atsushi which is why he keeps pushing.
He's made sure that Atsushi bore witness to the deaths of everyone he cared about. He ripped up the hope of saving him right in his face. And in the very next scene he also commands Ame no Gozen to kill Akutagawa as well. He's very much trying to provoke something out of Atsushi. The tiger itself maybe?
How many times do you think atsushi wished he could’ve done this in the original battle? How long do you think he probably ran the scenario over and over in his head on how he could have saved Akutagawa and now he finally got the chance

I think it would be funny if everyone collectively just didnt care to change in to their work clothes for the plot of dead apple cause imagine Chuuya fighting that big ass dragon still in his dog themed pajama pants 🐶
Only one chapter of the Stormbringer manga has been released and I'm already in pain
Oh boy I thought people were over the Rayleigh-Zoro parallel being a 1 for 1 thing. But I see with this chapter they're not and now they're doing the same with Sanji and Gabán.
Rayleigh was a parallel to both Zoro and Sanji and Gaban's the same.
Rayleigh's a swordsman but he also uses his legs to fight while Gabán uses two axes (which ironically makes for 3 weapons + 1 pair of legs, it's probably just chance but who knows with Oda).
Rayleigh made fun of Zoro's stupidity the same way Sanji would, he's got a got a scar similar to Zoro's.
Rayleigh's a big drinker like Zoro and Gaban's very into love like Sanji.
Gaban's linked to Wano like Zoro and they both like to stir shit up.
Both Sanji-Zoro and Gabán-Rayleigh will not hesitate to argue against their captains if they feel like it's needed, so far Gabán and Zoro have only been shown to do it when they're particularly worried (both shown in chapter 1139), meanwhile Sanji and Rayleigh will scold Luffy-Roger for more mundane stuff as much as when they're worried.
So like outwardly Gabán-Sanji and Zoro-Rayleigh parallels are super obvious but in truth it's a mix because Luffy's crew is not just a copy of Roger's.
(also don't comment by saying that both Rayleigh and Zoro are 1st mate/Vice Captain as a parallel, Oda confirmed in vol. 102's SBS Zoro isn't, which we've been knew but apparently not everyone, anyway the idea of the Strawhats having a 1st mate is just weird when them not caring about hierarchy bc they're a family is so important)
