One Piece thread (Spoilers)

If the fodder marines could live, I'm pretty sure Monet did. It be different if the icycle was still impaled, but it was in the ground, oda doesn't make those type of mistakes, those are typically signs.

A good explanation;

I don't think it's a very good explanation, it's still mostly speculation and interpretation. I have to agree with some of the other commentators on that thread saying that the OP is a bit reaching, heh. In addition, much of the artwork he's using as evidence is heavily Topazed in photoshop, probably by the scanlators who had to make the images clearer before upload. I still stand by my belief that she's dead, but if Oda decides to bring her back then I'll stand corrected. Until then I don't believe the evidence is strong enough to suggest that she's still alive.

Oh please, Oda makes mistakes all the time. Just 2 chapters, ago he couldn't even keep track of luffy and zoros scars and switched them around.

That persons "good explanation" isn't foolproof. Yeah, it didn't have the spike in it afterwards, so? Caeser clearly thought he had done enough to kill the person who the heart belonged to. Otherwise he wouldn't have asked "Why are you alive smoker?" later, once he saw that smoker was fine.

I have to agree. He could have easily taken the spike out after stabbing it through. There's a difference between Luffy smashing around fodder marines without the intent to kill them and people like Doflamingo and Rob Lucci who go for the kill. We don't see this kind of speculation for Bellamy or even Nero (who might have survived drowning, though unlikely) because the people who attacked them are known evildoers capable of killing in cold blood. Caesar isn't really any different.
