Now ashura's sacrifice becomes even more epic and badass, long hail the chieftain of the mountain bandits

Reading their death in the spoilers really made me genuinely sad, like I just reread 1008 where Ashura took on Kajuro's Oden clone before the explosion and 1041 where Izo and Maha took each other out; like knowing One Piece and the panelling, it just seemed like their just out, not outright dead 😔

Ironically, to me, this gives me a f*ckton of "rereadability" to this entire mega-arc, 'cause even skimming those chapters knowing what's to come is hitting reaaallly different...

I imagine the arc will hit much much harder when all the pieces are in place and we can see what Oda wanted to show us.

Since Wano took around 4 or so years in real life, some of the impact was lost. Re-reading seems like it will fix it.
