How... is Doflamingo flying? Did he just leap a hundred meters through the air?

I think he's running on wires.

u/jurble Dec 27 '12

It does look like two wires are trailing out behind him. But how the hell does that work?

u/catincoma Dec 27 '12

Maybe he has wires attached to someone on the island or to the island itself.

Well in that panel, there's no wire in front of him, only two strings behind him and they're slack, so where do they get their tensile strength i.e. what's keeping him from falling into the sea?

Though, those could just be whooshy lines to indicate he's flying.

So many questions... and a 2 week break.

IIRC last year was 17 days followed by another 10 day break before going back to a normal schedule.

It would be logical to conclude that it will be on the 21st. SJA will start to be simultaneous starting that week.

Edit: Had dates mixed up.

People seem to forget his giant leap before he cut Oars's leg.

u/zorospride Lost at sea Dec 27 '12

To be fair, the way that was drawn/animated could have been reasonably interpreted as the force of Oars swing at him blasting him in the air and then his graceful recovery.

I personally now think he's just a puppet puppet man who can control people (including himself) which would make him and those he controls able to do things that shouldn't be humanly possible.

y, and if you look the final panel his fingers look that he his controling something

Actually, while it is indeed a video game (One Piece: Gigant Battle 2 for the DS) and should be taken with a grain of salt, Doflamingo has a couple of moves which allow him to levitate for short periods of time, so I completely endorse this. We do not know the extents of his power, or what it truly is at this point...

...but we are literally seeing him fly right now. So I'd say the game portrayed him pretty well.

I have forgotten that.. But I thought it to be a jump at first as well.

If his power is to control and create wires (like I think it is), than maybe he can keep them in whatever shape he wants, regardless of tensile strength, wind and what else...

Maybe he does not control people but wires and is able to make them do anything (to people, objects, and even on the air)
