She was a Playboy, Brigette Bardot...
We got a new volume which means a new SBS. Little light on the new information this time. Though through Rocks's tastes we have clarified Bacardi exists in this universe which is neat. Personally this was the big one for me. Former Kuja Empress Gloriosa's design was based on the well known French actress Brigette Bardot. Who left a legacy we'll call...complicated. Big deal in the 50s/60s and broke off of that to focus on animal rights advocacy but could be extremely racist/homophobic in how that was carried out, especially in her later years. Regardless, I do think her inspiring a design for someone like Gloriosa is pretty neat. Especially since it translates to both young and old Gloriosa. Also appreciate the Reddit thread for the nice comparison pics.
Also thought Oda's message about the volume being a whole 20 yen more to include an extra chapter was adorable. Like, these tankobon in Japan typically end up being about half what they cost stateside already. Current conversion rate would put this about 12 cents in USD more than it typically is. But it's sweet he cared enough to apologize. It's treated like a bigger deal in Japan to have to increase prices on childhood staples like this, there's a pretty famous example about an ice cream company in a similar situation.
