Garp is healthy but still pretty old and not in his prime anymore.
I think Garp will come really close to killing Blackbeard, but Blackbeard will win because he's not afraid to play dirty
I wonder if Oda is gonna kill off Garp though, but I'm still happy we'll finally see Garp going full God Valley mode.
Oda is a hack if Garp loses to Blackbeard.
Blackbeard is the weakest of all yonko right now. And Garp is supposed to be pirate king tier. >but he's old
That never mattered in One Piece.
Blackbeard is crafty and he got his reputation as a yonko for a reason. This series obviously has themes of passing the torch, and Garp is probably gonna job to make Blackbeard look good and set his grandson up to be the one to take him out.
Personally I'm just glad Wano is over and we're getting some Vegapunk at long last. I was happy to see an awakened Lucci too, but fuck he jobbed so hard.
>That never mattered in One Piece
Anon Whitebeard took a sneak attack stab from Squard purely because he was old and weak. Its very openly stated it wouldn't have connect if he were in his prime.
>Garp >As Strong as Gol D Roger
Kek. The man was literally the Smoker to Roger's Luffy. Respectable but nowhere near strong enough for the other to ever take him seriously.
>implying he already doesn't
Luffy was ready to beat the shit out of Teach back in Impel Down because at that point he knew the latter was the reason for Ace's current situation. As you know, Luffy had to postpone any chances of getting even because he had to rescue his brother. Whether or not Luffy still holds that grudge, we don't really know, but he and Ace seemed a lot closer than he ever was to Garp despite being familial.
>Whether or not Luffy still holds that grudge, we don't really know
I would say his brief interaction with Blackbeard via the snail phone while he was in Dressrosa shows he still hates Blackbeard.
I just started reading OP, already on the Skypiea arc.
I've heard people talk about it for years but no one has ever said how fucking GOOD this manga is, it's pretty much everything I wanted out of BNHA so far. Usopp rules.
BNHA is sad, but its the same sad situation as most shonen, the very beginning is perfection and then it turns into crap shortly afterwards, and then gets crappier and crappier until somebody finally puts it to sleep.
>but its the same sad situation as most shonen, the very beginning is perfection and then it turns into crap shortly afterwards
Its because of the obsession Jump mag has with giant frontrunners, every new mango must be "naruto at its peak" by the third week or else it gets canceled immediately. They have no patience for slow stories that build up over time, they have to do things like introducing the entire cast in chapter 7 and then not having enough time to develop any of them properly.
Nobody actually writes out the whole Boku no Hero Academia. It's just MHA, you sound like a weeb forcing the Boku part

What's wrong with My Hero Academia?
It's literally the number 1 popular anime right now. It recently got added into Fortnite after Naruto and DBZ. One Piece didn't get added into Fortnite.
I love BNHA but the writing sucks ass, I hate how almost half the manga is dedicated to the Todoroki family drama, there are so many characters but not even 1/5th of them get the attention they deserve, it breaks my heart because I was utterly smitten by it when I first began reading, now the series is just about over and I didn't get even half the stuff I was hoping to see with the characters. >tfw you really liked Sero and wanted him to get some development >last time I saw him he didn't even speak, it was just a shot of his face
It hurts. Also popular =/= good, fuck normies and fujos.

The writing becomes worse every arc. When i stopped reading, it devolves into >introduce new character >show off their power/authority for 1 chapter >have them job to the enemies next chapter >slip in some flashbacks >and then depending on the character popularity, have them fade out of existence or have them appear every now and then with no plot relevance
What really sets one piece apart is the long form story telling. Blows my mind they keep setting shit up for a pay off that comes literally 10 years later
>that comes literally 10 years later
The only reason it takes ten years in the first place though is because his Run Piece filler arcs last five fucking years. And then he fucks it all up with something like the Empty Throne that's introduced literally one chapter before it's subverted.
Yeah, the pacing for the manga is just wayyy better. The dialogue and art are punchier. I mean there is also plenty of more detail on top of the fact that it’s just not weighed down by unnecessary bullshit. It is funnier. In every way possible it is a more condensed, saturated, and purer form of the series. The anime also just makes mistakes all of the time and is generally not well animated enough to do such a fantastic series justice.
who honestly thinks this? what reason did you find enjoyment in watching one piece where that is the peak and you could be happy not to watch past it. Admittedly, Fishman arc is fucking shit after Marineford but then its just back to one piece being good again.
I just don't understand what lost you past marineford unless you actually gave up at fishman and assume the rest is like that.
>I just don't understand what lost you past marineford unless you actually gave up at fishman and assume the rest is like that.
Fishman Island was fine. I gave up in Dressrosa. It's just NOTHING FUCKING HAPPENS: THE ANIME. Most episodes are filler. Fuck off.
I'm just a little ways ahead of you and I also can't believe how long it took me to read this series. I already loved Dragon Ball, Hunter x Hunter and YuYu Hakusho. My Hero Academia bored me to tears for whatever reason.

Pre timeskip is amazing. But temper your expectations going into post timeskip. A lot of what makes early One Piece great gets lost.
Hell, that's better than I expected from the new game. Not getting it anytime soon, but that's at least worth a cheap playthrough. Maybe I'll buy it once it's half off this autumn or something. The best reason to buy it, of course, would be to have Robin in the party at all possible times.
I'm glad you're enjoying it, anon. Why the hell would I love this series so much if I didn't think it was a really good read?
>but no one has ever said how fucking GOOD this manga is
People are tsundere towards this manga. They afraid others would make fun of their favorite manga if they say it out loud. So they flock to other manga instead.
See, I hate OP but like BNHA.
I just can't stand the art style used in the manga, it's way too busy at times and just looks too cartoony.
Meanwhile BNHA has the best art out of any currently running manga, Hori just knows how to draw well, and that means more to me than how well the plot flows.
>mickey mouse
Who ever made this edit never watched an OG Mickey Mouse cartoon from the 30's. They're tame and mundane as fuck. Replace Mickey with Woody the Woodpecker.
Oda actually knows how to write a story so that helps. good luck to shonen jump ever finding someone else who can write a consistent story for 1000+ chapters.
>it's pretty much everything I wanted out of BNHA so far.
its funny because i dropped one piece to start reading bnha. i'm only 100 chapters in but it's so formulaic: new town, new villain, luffy kick his ass, the end.
Water 7 has 1 dungeon and 1 straight line dungeon. Marineford is a series of boss fights. Dressrosa is 1 area. Alabasta is like 1/3rd of the entire game area wise.
That's just japanese development in general, they reinvent the wheel every time so only the first third or so of the game is good before they had to rush it out to release
>"oh my god zoan" is the worst asspull in Shonen history
why? it didn't diminish any of Luffy's previous achievements. it just gave him a higher ceiling. plus, it's very in line with the themes of the series
I won't deny that it was pointless and poorly executed, but thinking that it's a series-ruining thing is dishonest
Personally I don’t like it because Luffy succeeding through determination and ingenuity with a low-tier fruit power was part of the appeal. Him having a super secret god fruit that the entire world government fears and is actually the best fruit you could possibly ever find is the lamest thing possible

it's never stated that the fruit is specially powerful, much less "the best fruit you could possibly ever find". all the Gorosei said is that the fruit is ridiculous, which means that in the right hands it's unpredictable. Luffy's own determination and personality is what allowed the fruit's will to sync with his own and cause it to awaken, it wouldn't have happened had he not reached that point by his own force of will
and unawakened, all the fruit does it turn him into rubber. frankly that's pretty much what it does once awakened too, except he now has even more control over his body and can also turn the environment (and the opponents) rubbery. the biggest difference is the drum heartbeat that keeps him motivated no matter how dead he's supposed to be

Government only fears it due to the connection to Nika/JoyBoy which most already guessed was likely by FMI.
Beyond that Big Mom, Law, Bonney have more impressive fruits.
Katakuri's can fully mimic it until awakened AND do it better, and can likely mimic 90% of it post awakening.
Foxy's fruit can be incredibly busted.
Fucking retard.
I'm not surprised and I don't value the opinion of women over a male hobby if they're stupid enough to get hung up over character design. If they can't appreciate beauty then they're spiteful and it will forever taint their perception of the medium unless it caters to them specifically. And gaming doesn't have to to be successful.
the only serious fights Luffy still needs to go through are Blackbeard and maybe Akainu.
and Blackbeard literally turns off the opponent's devil fruit, Gear 5 won't get in the way of your so needed edgy shonen fight, I'm sure
most likely, but there's no reason it needs to be an edgy fight that gets Luffy pissed off. evil Shanks is the lamest theory and I seriously doubt Oda will go for it
most likely, but there's no reason it needs to be an edgy fight that gets Luffy pissed off. evil Shanks is the lamest theory and I seriously doubt Oda will go for it
It's more like Shanks really does want One Piece, and he's going to clash with Luffy over it, even if he loves him. He's a Yonko first and foremost and Luffy's friend second.
>that time Luffy put his enemy's sharp teeth in his mouth and bit him >that time Luffy drank a barrel of water so he could spit water at his enemy >that time Luffy literally turned off his brain >that time Luffy's technique turned him into a one-foot version of himself
Yeah, One Piece fights were always so serious
It's the perfect way to fully realize the silliness of Luffy's fighting style. I wish we had more proper awakened zoans before the reveal to really show there was precedence to believe his fruit was the Nika fruit, especially since Lucci and Kaku show that awakened Zoans have the weird air mantle thing, but I guess that's what the mantle for Gear 4 was for.
The way the form works and looks is amazing and one of the best power ups in shonen in my opinion
HOWEVER
The execution and explanation for Luffy getting this power up are the biggest and worst badly done aspull ever and it sadly diminishes the entire journey
>it sadly diminishes the entire journey
Only if you fell for the "unremarkable person does amazing things" meme >son of Dragon, grandson of Garp
The moment these were revealed (and they were revealed early), the notion that Luffy was just some ordinary pirate that was strong should have gone out the window
Thankfully, I enjoy One Piece for the adventure and don't care if everyone is "destined for greatness"
Can't wait for the seethe when Zoro is revealed to be a Ryuma clone or something along those lines
>Can't wait for the seethe when Zoro is revealed to be a Ryuma clone or something along those lines
Zoro was literally designed from day 0 as the guy from his samurai one-shot, showing up in his pirate one-shot that got picked up by Jump. He is literally, literary, Ryuma.
I agree with you but there are people literally in this thread that are disappointed about Luffy's fruit development because they wanted it to be a relatively unremarkable paramecia.
The awakening of his power is him being able to apply his rubberyness to things other than himself makes perfect sense, that seems like the perfect evolution of his fruit.
By why make it a Zoan, you could've just as easily said that the Gomu Gomu was Nika's fruit.
Kishi at least with editorial meddling Yeah because the whole Ninja great war and Kaguya shit was editorial meddling was able to deliver a story on a prudential time, Oda is going to complete 40 years and OP will be still running.
for that sole fact alone at least I have some respect for Kishi.
It's a great reveal that fits his character perfectly. People think "oh a mythical zoan he must be the broken chosen one!" but it really just gives him what you'd expect of a rubber fruit awakening
The nika fruit and gear 5 shouldn't have been the same thing. If gear 5 was just gomu gomu no mi awakening there would be no complaints but muh legendary devil fruit is a bit retarded
Not to mention Kaido had fought all of Oden's retainers, his own daughter who had the guardian deity of Wano's mythical zoan, Kidd & Killer, Law, and Luffy like 3 times before he finally went down. And he was shitfaced drunk the entire time.
Why the fuck is this version the only one I can find on Youtube now? It's so boring compared to the first one, it was really loud and bombastic and sounded way better.
Glad I can still listen to it, but it sucks that the actual intro itself got nuked for some reason. There used to be multiple videos of it, now the only ones left are inherently inferior.
I farted the nastiest wet diarrhea fart of my life just when Robin's ass came on the screen. I will forever associate her ass with a nuclear taco bell blast now, fuck.
I’m like halfway through Alabasta and unless it gets way better as it goes I think 74 is a fine score. Combat is piss easy and there’s a damn near constant stream of back tracking and cut scenes after cut scenes. But the character interactions in the story have been fun to watch and the monster designs are cool, so there’s that
It's way too easy and they mostly use the "our memories aren't the exact same" shtick to cut story and characters from the arcs and replace them with filler, rather than constructing interesting "what if" scenarios. Most of Baroque Works isn't even present in Alabasta, you just spend the whole chapter fighting scorpions and running through caves. Also they don't give you Franky until more than halfway through and that's horseshit
No.
Alabasta let's you breathe a little bit but don't get too excited don't go exploring.
For a game based on literally FREEDOM THE ANIME, this shit doesn't let you do ANYTHING unless it specifically tells you to first.
Oda confirmed it's a physical object. Roger told Whitebeard what it was, which is why he yelled it was real in the first place. Whatever it was, combined with Joyboy's story, made Roger and his crew laugh early. And whatever it was, Roger and his crew got there too early, chances are the Nika fruit is needed to fully realize its potential. Also given the nature of the series, it'll be something that's absolutely goofy and ridiculous.
We already got a gold fruit and that was non-canon movie thing.
And the thing about the movies (and fillers) is that Oda makes sure that fruits he plans for the manga don't get used in them for consistency reason.
>Oda makes sure that fruits he plans for the manga don't get used in them for consistency reason
That no longer applies after the latest chapter Stussy has the vampre fruit that the villain from Unlimited World Red had
We don't know that yet. For all we know she just has the bat fruit to match with the other CP0 animals, or the succubi fruit.
Also there was a villain in a filler arc that had the exact same fruit as Oven.
>And whatever it was, Roger and his crew got there too early, chances are the Nika fruit is needed to fully realize its potential.
It explicitly needs the three weapons and Poseidon wouldnt develop her powers for another few decades, any speculation on the Nika fruit is just that
Yes it's a real hysical object that will actually be used to do 'something'.
Oda himself already confirmed (any times btw) it WILL NOT be 'muh adventre waz da one piece' trash.
From in an story perspective Roger knew what it wa, and told Whitebeard. This lead to the famous >"X" REALLY DOES EXIST
meme
Rayleigh was all about 3 seconds from telling Lufy what the OP actually is before Luffy said 'Tell me and I quit right now, never leaving Sabobody. I don't care because the Pirate King is simply the Freest Man on the Sea.'
Plus Oden wrote what it was in his journal.
Why do they sometimes animate the Zoan mouths when they talk and sometimes don't? I can't take it seriously when they show a giant dragon but his mouth stays still the whole time when he talks like he's communicating telepathically
I wanna complain, but this is a massive upgrade over the animation One Piece was getting after the time skip. Even if it's filled with effects all over the place.
The only thing I want is PW5 but with a decent budget. This DQ knockoff is dogshit and turn-based combat does not compliment how battles are played out in OP at all.

The dragon form is his fruit. He didn’t need special training or experience to get the form. I’m sure he can awaken, but he never used it. Same with Big Mom.
the fruit's name is fish-fish model Azure Dragon, he was never a fish
pay attention to the shit you're reading, or do you think Jabra is awakened because his dog-dog fruit turns him into a wolf? or Kaku's cow-cow fruit turning him into a Giraffe?

She's only appeared twice in the manga and when she was introduced her text block says Miss Buckin. So no, there was no way to tie either character together until this last chapter. The most we knew about Buckin was when Marco mentioned she was a pirate a long time ago and comments she was never around Whitebeard during his time as the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates despite them allegedly being lovers. It's only now that we're learning Buckin is a short for Buckingham and her name is Stussy just like her clone.

But if not.
The name refers to Gold Roger's execution.
The man was known as 'The King of the Pirates' due to sailing the entirety of the whole.
Upon his execution day while he was on the stand he yelled out to the crowd 'I have left my treasure, all of it, in one place. If you desire it go forth and find it' or something to that affect.
This was basically a massive 'fuck you' to the World Government/Marines who believed that killing Roger, very pubically, would put an end to the dwindling piracy in the world.
Instead his last words massively ignited piracy across the global.
It is The One Piece of all of Roger's treasures.
Later in the story WhiteBeard is fighing in a war and put nearly to dead, much like with Roger the hopes of WB dying would kneecap piracy was part of the reason the WG wantd WB dead.
Once more though a massive 'fuck you' came about.
With one of his final acts, with the war basically streamed globally to all nations WB oudly, confidently and proudly exclaimed 'THE ONE PIECE REALLY DOES EXIST!" so that the new generation of pirates would not be demoralized by his death, but instead react with more determination.
Enies Lobby is the best arc in the series. One of the only times everyone in the team gets development and feels useful. Plus of course the introduction of Gears (back when they had actual drawbacks).
Ancient Zoans and Mythic Zoans may not be able to awaken, Luffy so far is the only exception and even then his fruit treads a line between Zoan and Paramecia.
Good taste, my favorite was this one. Asia Engineers have good songs, sadly only one of them is on Spotify. It's amazing how many Japanese artists aren't on American Spotify, like there is a lot of anime music on Spotify but there is also a lot of songs/artists that aren't.
yesss was just showing eternal pose to my friend earlier today. they had such nice sound for ending off an episode. its crazy its been almost 20 years since theres been an ending song to the anime
i havent been keeping up with the anime in a while but scenes like this make me want to start watching it again. having the music go along with it always makes it feel a lot more impactful, very nice! maybe ill do one pace like i hear people say
HERE'S HOW THE STORY GOES
WE FIND OUT THAT THE TREASURE ON PIRATE YEAH THERE'S NOT DOUBT
LUFFY HE COMING HE GONNA GET THAT
HE'LL BE KING OF THE PIRATES SING IT WITH HIM
first bad opening was Kaze wo Sagashite (12th). then almost every single one starting from Hands Up (16th). and yes, I base my opinion on when I switched to the manga and therefore stopped building nostalgic feelings for those openings
12OP first half sucks.
But when Ace starts walking shit gets good, then we get Luffy running through all the impel down levels, that's A GREAT OPENING.
The beginning is shit though.
You know it's a shame because if it wasn't turn based I think people would have been way more into it. The visuals are really good and overall I'm still having fun, but yeah, the questing is pretty monotonous, a lot of fetch quests and kill quests, and the combat gets boring pretty quick.
I've been hearing that they finally upped the animation quality in the anime, is that true? Because I don't believe it, I don't believe Toei can do anything other than cheap out.
>Director from DBS Broly takes over >Gets everyone organized >Invites top animators that actually care about One Piece and want to improve it
Now I'm not gonna lie to you and say all the 22 minutes are pure kino, but there's definitely at least 2 minutes of quality animation for the most part, and since this is a WEEKLY anime instead of a seasonal one, I think that's still really impressive.
Wano gets the rare 1-2 minutes of high-quality animation every other episode, and the rare actually good episode once every 1-2 months
the average animation quality is still miles better than Dressrosa, but it's nothing to write home about other than the previously mentioned special moments. the pacing is still crap, for example
but something like ep 1015 stands above most other anime episodes I've ever watched, not just for One Piece but in general
We need a new opening, or it's about time for one. We haven't had a new opening in a year I think, I thought they usually give at least 2-3 new openings a year.
It doesn't feel like a year but I think it has been.
Over The Top stayed for 43 episodes
Dreamin' On for 69 episodes
Paint has been on for 43 so far
act 3 should end around episode 1090 or something, so if they don't change the opening until it's over Paint will stay for 80 something episodes, which would be way above average
She was never brown, toei fucked up.
That being said I think it's cool that ODA Planned or maybe it was a big coincidence, for all brown characters to have their 2 year break in places with little to no sun. >Zoro? eternal night island >Robin? Snowiest place >Franky? Snow and inside a lab
no one is anyone's close until proven otherwise >Tashigi is totally Kuina's clone!!
she's 1 year younger than her, who the fuck would clone a 1 years old and for what fucking reason
I think Oda will pull a curveball and have Law beat Blackbeard, but then get fucked by Shiryu. Law is a huge money printer, so there’s no way he gets killed or beaten
>Games use a high school grading /100 >50 or lower is obviously a fail >In that sense it's really only 5-10 for the scores >Which is just a 5 star review score
Im still shocked that the end of wano arc has luffy die to the point where people can no longer sense his haki, only to have his heart restarted by his rubber fruit awakening, and not a single person goes around spamming the meme.
I started playing the card game last month and I'm already bored of it. Sure it's only one set in it can improve but NOTHING interesting is being added in the next two sets either.
I was psyched for it but I got burned out almost immediately. Bunch of people in my local area that play were some of the most try hard motherfuckers I’ve ever seen. I’m guessing others felt the same because the tournaments at my FLGS went from having 20-30 players to maybe 8 and it’s the ones with the bad attitudes and the netdecks that are still sticking it out now that everyone else was chased off
Most of Naruto’s and DB best games came out once they ended/mostly ended so there was room to use the source to its fullest. One Piece is largely limited due to Oda still holding a bunch of mystery boxes to himself and still holding back guys like Shanks, Mihawk, and Dragon, etc.
That’s part of why Odyssey is so boring. The rpg gameplay elements are pretty good, but its campaign is so un-engaging that it becomes a slog.
Another thing is that fights aren’t One Piece’s strong suit. It’s the world building and adventure. People want to sail and see all sorts of islands not just explore hallways or beat on a bajillion mooks all the time. But a game that tries to offer an authentic One Piece experience would likely be too expensive for a licensed anime game.
I wasn't surprised that the game wasn't great or anything, but after all the hype I can't fucking believe how bland and boring it is. It's legit a 3-4/10, just an absolute shit slog. I was expecting...I dunno, at least a 6? And I was still horribly disappointed. Even big OP fans are going to fucking hate this game.
cant believe what those morons did to archeage without telling anybody who had preordered it completetly flipping the scrtips and assfucking all of its playerbase 1 day into the game releasing
>I miss when One Piece was allowed to have filler.
One Piece filler unironically sucked ass. I got into OP back in 2020 and did a blind viewing of it and I could tell what was filler and what wasn't just because of how stark the contrast in writing was.
Also Toeis tan pre-timeskip is so funny. How on earth do they always fuck up color schemes and can't bother to just ask the Manga authors for advice before implementing their shit. I still find it funny you have SJW's crying and reeeing how she was "whitewashed" and then make ugly garbage like this.

I'm glad that Odyssey kept the tradition of showing Robin's ass crack.
They just did whatever they wanted because One Piece hadn't yet become the powerhouse it would be. You don't see that shit happening nowadays. I'm aware that the filler isn't great, but it definitely would've been preferable to seeing the anime utterly mutilate the manga with rancid pacing and stretching out scenes to ungodly lengths. And SJWs are never worth listening to, they're hypocrites of the highest order.

>You don't see that shit happening nowadays.
Well we did a few times, the last major filler we had happened right before Whole Cake Island with the naval base they infiltrated. I just find that stuff unbelievably boring. It's worse when the filler bleeds over into the canon episodes like with movie shit (Z's Ambition Arc after Fishman Island) and completely alters it.

I should have specified, I meant the things like color scheme alterations. Sometimes that was for the best, otherwise we'd still have orange creamsicle Kuma. God only knows what Oda as thinking there.
THE ONE PIEECE FLOOOPPPED
CAN WE GET MUCH LOWER
It just doesn't make sense
Why Would Garp even try to rescue Coby? He's going to get wrecked by Blackbeard low diff
>Garp
>as strong as Gol D. Roger himself
>wrecked by Black fucking Beard
Really
Garp is healthy but still pretty old and not in his prime anymore.
I think Garp will come really close to killing Blackbeard, but Blackbeard will win because he's not afraid to play dirty
I wonder if Oda is gonna kill off Garp though, but I'm still happy we'll finally see Garp going full God Valley mode.
Oda is a hack if Garp loses to Blackbeard.
Blackbeard is the weakest of all yonko right now. And Garp is supposed to be pirate king tier.
>but he's old
That never mattered in One Piece.
Blackbeard is crafty and he got his reputation as a yonko for a reason. This series obviously has themes of passing the torch, and Garp is probably gonna job to make Blackbeard look good and set his grandson up to be the one to take him out.
Personally I'm just glad Wano is over and we're getting some Vegapunk at long last. I was happy to see an awakened Lucci too, but fuck he jobbed so hard.
Garp is going to make Vegeta look like an amateur jobber.
Old age catches up at worst times.
What does her ass look like? Haha!
>That never mattered in One Piece
Anon Whitebeard took a sneak attack stab from Squard purely because he was old and weak. Its very openly stated it wouldn't have connect if he were in his prime.
>old
old bros in anime are the most broken fuckers in the setting
>blackbeard is going to show us his kraken zoan
>his first order of business is chomping off garps fist with his beak
>Garp
>As Strong as Gol D Roger
Kek. The man was literally the Smoker to Roger's Luffy. Respectable but nowhere near strong enough for the other to ever take him seriously.
Thanks for confirming you’ve never read One Piece. God Valley alone throws your opinion out the water.
Rocks were Buggy tier.
Of course Smoker could easily defeat Buggy.
Coby's his precious disciple and Teach is long overdue to get taken down a peg.
It's so that later when Luffy hears that Garp was killed by Blackbeard, Luffy would have even greater reason to beat Teach to death.
>implying he already doesn't
Luffy was ready to beat the shit out of Teach back in Impel Down because at that point he knew the latter was the reason for Ace's current situation. As you know, Luffy had to postpone any chances of getting even because he had to rescue his brother. Whether or not Luffy still holds that grudge, we don't really know, but he and Ace seemed a lot closer than he ever was to Garp despite being familial.
>Whether or not Luffy still holds that grudge, we don't really know
I would say his brief interaction with Blackbeard via the snail phone while he was in Dressrosa shows he still hates Blackbeard.
BB would've been killed by Law if not for the usual plot armor. Even in his old age Garp can take him out.
>why would Garp try and save his student
Has power scaling completely rotted your brain?
SO LOW
I just started reading OP, already on the Skypiea arc.
I've heard people talk about it for years but no one has ever said how fucking GOOD this manga is, it's pretty much everything I wanted out of BNHA so far. Usopp rules.
BNHA is sad, but its the same sad situation as most shonen, the very beginning is perfection and then it turns into crap shortly afterwards, and then gets crappier and crappier until somebody finally puts it to sleep.
Strange. that's usually how everything begins and ends these days
>but its the same sad situation as most shonen, the very beginning is perfection and then it turns into crap shortly afterwards
Its because of the obsession Jump mag has with giant frontrunners, every new mango must be "naruto at its peak" by the third week or else it gets canceled immediately. They have no patience for slow stories that build up over time, they have to do things like introducing the entire cast in chapter 7 and then not having enough time to develop any of them properly.
>crap shortly afterwards,
Egghead Arc is so much fun. I'm so glad we're finally done with Wano. It's gone back to being kino.
>BNHA
Nobody actually writes out the whole Boku no Hero Academia. It's just MHA, you sound like a weeb forcing the Boku part
Maybe if you're an anime only.
It's probably the one series where you're equally retarded if you're a Mangafag or an Animufag
What's wrong with My Hero Academia?
It's literally the number 1 popular anime right now. It recently got added into Fortnite after Naruto and DBZ. One Piece didn't get added into Fortnite.
I love BNHA but the writing sucks ass, I hate how almost half the manga is dedicated to the Todoroki family drama, there are so many characters but not even 1/5th of them get the attention they deserve, it breaks my heart because I was utterly smitten by it when I first began reading, now the series is just about over and I didn't get even half the stuff I was hoping to see with the characters.
>tfw you really liked Sero and wanted him to get some development
>last time I saw him he didn't even speak, it was just a shot of his face
It hurts. Also popular =/= good, fuck normies and fujos.
>It's literally the number 1 popular anime right now
It's not. Also people are retards
>One Piece didn't get added into Fortnite
YO
BROOOOOOO ONE PIECE x FORTNITE WHEN???

goyslop: the game
I wish but Americans are gays who fear tits so theres no way theyll ever add One Piece unless it's East Blue outfits only
Americans love tits, it's those gay garden gnomes in California that don't and they are the ones that care enough to bitch and moan on twitter all day so they can ruin everything for everyone
One Piece isn't super popular their I guess.
The writing becomes worse every arc. When i stopped reading, it devolves into
>introduce new character
>show off their power/authority for 1 chapter
>have them job to the enemies next chapter
>slip in some flashbacks
>and then depending on the character popularity, have them fade out of existence or have them appear every now and then with no plot relevance
>It's literally the number 1 popular anime right now

It's got literal trannies in it, and not in the mocking kind of way either.
japan is great at writing side characters that they do nothing with.
masterful bait
its boring
>he watches my hero academia (eng dub) instead of reading the 僕のヒーローアカデミア manga
you got some good shit coming up too, in water 7
I just started watching OP, already in the Battery Arc. Only took 40 hours.
What really sets one piece apart is the long form story telling. Blows my mind they keep setting shit up for a pay off that comes literally 10 years later
>that comes literally 10 years later
The only reason it takes ten years in the first place though is because his Run Piece filler arcs last five fucking years. And then he fucks it all up with something like the Empty Throne that's introduced literally one chapter before it's subverted.
Yeah, the pacing for the manga is just wayyy better. The dialogue and art are punchier. I mean there is also plenty of more detail on top of the fact that it’s just not weighed down by unnecessary bullshit. It is funnier. In every way possible it is a more condensed, saturated, and purer form of the series. The anime also just makes mistakes all of the time and is generally not well animated enough to do such a fantastic series justice.
But then you miss out on Luffy's voice acting and the music.
>Yeah, the pacing for the manga is just wayyy better
Yeah you didn’t read it.
It's good up until Marineford
Marineford is the equivalent of the pain arc for Naruto. It's only downhill from there.
who honestly thinks this? what reason did you find enjoyment in watching one piece where that is the peak and you could be happy not to watch past it. Admittedly, Fishman arc is fucking shit after Marineford but then its just back to one piece being good again.
I just don't understand what lost you past marineford unless you actually gave up at fishman and assume the rest is like that.
>I just don't understand what lost you past marineford unless you actually gave up at fishman and assume the rest is like that.
Fishman Island was fine. I gave up in Dressrosa. It's just NOTHING FUCKING HAPPENS: THE ANIME. Most episodes are filler. Fuck off.
>not using One Pace
You did it to yourself
it only gets better after marineford. speaking about manga. in anime they started doing this 1 chapter = 1 episode bullshit
The current arc in the manga is extremely good so far.
>but no one has ever said how fucking GOOD this manga is
This is the biggest lie I've ever read in this board, and that's saying something.
I'm just a little ways ahead of you and I also can't believe how long it took me to read this series. I already loved Dragon Ball, Hunter x Hunter and YuYu Hakusho. My Hero Academia bored me to tears for whatever reason.
it peaks at enies lobby
The manga is pretty good, but it got super fucking boring after the time skip IMO
I just couldn't continue after the punk hazard arc
It just keeps getting better....until Wano, but mainly because Wano refuses to end.
Wano ended a while ago. We EGGHEAD now.
>Wano ended a while ago
Wa you no tell me
I mean it refuses to end as you're reading it
It peaks at Wano.
Wano is legitimately awful
Pre timeskip is amazing. But temper your expectations going into post timeskip. A lot of what makes early One Piece great gets lost.
same here, but on chapter 406 specifically (robin rescue) and for me it's chopper
it's actually so good
Hell, that's better than I expected from the new game. Not getting it anytime soon, but that's at least worth a cheap playthrough. Maybe I'll buy it once it's half off this autumn or something. The best reason to buy it, of course, would be to have Robin in the party at all possible times.
I'm glad you're enjoying it, anon. Why the hell would I love this series so much if I didn't think it was a really good read?
>Calm, calculated, well endowed woman
Find a better trope.
It's a trope, to be sure, but Robin has done it the best.
What you said but also I'm having sex with her
>but no one has ever said how fucking GOOD this manga is
People are tsundere towards this manga. They afraid others would make fun of their favorite manga if they say it out loud. So they flock to other manga instead.
Most of the people that shit on one piece never read it
>BNHA
You have to have a mighty need of cringe if you like that piece of shit.
I'm sad this game fell off. I really wanted to fuck the spy lady who became a spy kid.
>fell off
Last time I heard ninjala is kinda popular in Japan at least, keeps getting tons of collabs and updates.
Eh it's not dead yet.
See, I hate OP but like BNHA.
I just can't stand the art style used in the manga, it's way too busy at times and just looks too cartoony.
Meanwhile BNHA has the best art out of any currently running manga, Hori just knows how to draw well, and that means more to me than how well the plot flows.
>too cartoony
FILTERED
>mickey mouse
Who ever made this edit never watched an OG Mickey Mouse cartoon from the 30's. They're tame and mundane as fuck. Replace Mickey with Woody the Woodpecker.

Oda actually knows how to write a story so that helps. good luck to shonen jump ever finding someone else who can write a consistent story for 1000+ chapters.
>it's pretty much everything I wanted out of BNHA so far.
its funny because i dropped one piece to start reading bnha. i'm only 100 chapters in but it's so formulaic: new town, new villain, luffy kick his ass, the end.
more like the 1/10 Piece of Shit
Risk your life on it.
Why is it so hard for an enjoyable OP game to exist
Shut the fuck up retard.
>doing everything in the game only takes 20 hours
I'm 8 hours in and only at alabasta, how is that possible?
Water 7 has 1 dungeon and 1 straight line dungeon. Marineford is a series of boss fights. Dressrosa is 1 area. Alabasta is like 1/3rd of the entire game area wise.
>Know journos only play one level and shit out a review
>Make first level really long and cool
>Phone in every other level
That's just japanese development in general, they reinvent the wheel every time so only the first third or so of the game is good before they had to rush it out to release

DOES EXIST!
Yeah, it's called Gigant Battle 2.

Modern one piece is shit. "oh my god zoan" is the worst asspull in Shonen history.
>"oh my god zoan" is the worst asspull in Shonen history
why? it didn't diminish any of Luffy's previous achievements. it just gave him a higher ceiling. plus, it's very in line with the themes of the series
I won't deny that it was pointless and poorly executed, but thinking that it's a series-ruining thing is dishonest
Personally I don’t like it because Luffy succeeding through determination and ingenuity with a low-tier fruit power was part of the appeal. Him having a super secret god fruit that the entire world government fears and is actually the best fruit you could possibly ever find is the lamest thing possible
it's never stated that the fruit is specially powerful, much less "the best fruit you could possibly ever find". all the Gorosei said is that the fruit is ridiculous, which means that in the right hands it's unpredictable. Luffy's own determination and personality is what allowed the fruit's will to sync with his own and cause it to awaken, it wouldn't have happened had he not reached that point by his own force of will
and unawakened, all the fruit does it turn him into rubber. frankly that's pretty much what it does once awakened too, except he now has even more control over his body and can also turn the environment (and the opponents) rubbery. the biggest difference is the drum heartbeat that keeps him motivated no matter how dead he's supposed to be
>with a low-tier fruit power
It was never explicitly stated to be a weak fruit, even Burgess thought it was a worthy fruit to consider taking
He means weak in the sense that rubber powers isn’t exactly what one would consider a highly desirable combat power. There are so many other abilities that seem better conceptually.
it was pretty shit-tier when he first got it and couldn't even throw a punch
but yeah, it hasn't been weak ever since he one-shot the sea king (chapter 1)
That's because he was a literal child. Similar to Momo not being able to fly well when he was a kid
Luffy never trained until water seven, when he created the two gears.
he started the manga strong as fuck alreadyy
>low-tier fruit power
It's been considered the most ridiculous ability both in-universe and in the SBS even well before that big reveal. It's never been considered weak, just overlooked because it's silly.
>Him having a super secret god fruit that the entire world government fears and is actually the best fruit you could possibly ever find is the lamest thing possible
Government only fears it due to the connection to Nika/JoyBoy which most already guessed was likely by FMI.
Beyond that Big Mom, Law, Bonney have more impressive fruits.
Katakuri's can fully mimic it until awakened AND do it better, and can likely mimic 90% of it post awakening.
Foxy's fruit can be incredibly busted.
Fucking retard.
begone Hispanic-a-lic.
No one cares what you think.
I actually wish one piece was as good as it was
Desdrossa is easily the best post time skip art and it's worse than arlong park
>Desdrossa is easily the best
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little. Borerossa is easily the worst arc in One Piece period.
>Desdrossa is easily the best
Shit taste. Your opinion doesn't count.
>DOOM
viz was a mistake
why would you fuck up the quote in this way?
What the fuck.
Way to miss 60% of the plot's message by doing this.
The problem with IPshit, especially anime, is the developers know it'll still sell reasonably well with minimal effort.
>"female" reviewers rated it low out of spite because of booba

Source?
I'm not surprised and I don't value the opinion of women over a male hobby if they're stupid enough to get hung up over character design. If they can't appreciate beauty then they're spiteful and it will forever taint their perception of the medium unless it caters to them specifically. And gaming doesn't have to to be successful.
74 isn't a bad score. It just means the Westacuck journos hate it.
It means it isn't a Netflix show with a third person camera and Joss Whedon lines.
The box is yellow, fucking weeb
I want to carrot in the ass!
PW5 when? I need Gear 5 Luffy and Yamato in my life.
>PS5/Xwut
Imagine One Piece graphic push like the pic here
I hope till 2025 cause theres not enough new material for PW5
Now that the dust has settled, what did we think of Monkey D. "Cartoon God" Luffy?
If he's a god how come hasn't pulled Ace out of his ass?
Why are edgy gays like this?
It's stupid, now you can't take any fight seriously
I take trolling very seriously.
the only serious fights Luffy still needs to go through are Blackbeard and maybe Akainu.
and Blackbeard literally turns off the opponent's devil fruit, Gear 5 won't get in the way of your so needed edgy shonen fight, I'm sure
Will Luffy fight hanks?
most likely, but there's no reason it needs to be an edgy fight that gets Luffy pissed off. evil Shanks is the lamest theory and I seriously doubt Oda will go for it
It's more like Shanks really does want One Piece, and he's going to clash with Luffy over it, even if he loves him. He's a Yonko first and foremost and Luffy's friend second.
They'll fight but it won't be the fag ass edge trash you tards want.
Shanks isn't a villain.
>that time Luffy put his enemy's sharp teeth in his mouth and bit him
>that time Luffy drank a barrel of water so he could spit water at his enemy
>that time Luffy literally turned off his brain
>that time Luffy's technique turned him into a one-foot version of himself
Yeah, One Piece fights were always so serious
>the entirety of Davy Back
Real serious indeed
I really hope we get another Davy Back Fight.
I get ya, at least Luffy's final punch to Kaido was serious, so I think Odar will lay off the Tom & Jerry crap during the final moments of big fights.
Could you before? One Piece action has never been really good.
jumping the shark tier
It's the perfect way to fully realize the silliness of Luffy's fighting style. I wish we had more proper awakened zoans before the reveal to really show there was precedence to believe his fruit was the Nika fruit, especially since Lucci and Kaku show that awakened Zoans have the weird air mantle thing, but I guess that's what the mantle for Gear 4 was for.
The way the form works and looks is amazing and one of the best power ups in shonen in my opinion
HOWEVER
The execution and explanation for Luffy getting this power up are the biggest and worst badly done aspull ever and it sadly diminishes the entire journey
>it sadly diminishes the entire journey
Only if you fell for the "unremarkable person does amazing things" meme
>son of Dragon, grandson of Garp
The moment these were revealed (and they were revealed early), the notion that Luffy was just some ordinary pirate that was strong should have gone out the window
Thankfully, I enjoy One Piece for the adventure and don't care if everyone is "destined for greatness"
Can't wait for the seethe when Zoro is revealed to be a Ryuma clone or something along those lines
>Can't wait for the seethe when Zoro is revealed to be a Ryuma clone or something along those lines
Zoro was literally designed from day 0 as the guy from his samurai one-shot, showing up in his pirate one-shot that got picked up by Jump. He is literally, literary, Ryuma.
>Only if you fell for the "unremarkable person does amazing things" meme
luffy was never unremarkable
I agree with you but there are people literally in this thread that are disappointed about Luffy's fruit development because they wanted it to be a relatively unremarkable paramecia.
Amazing idea for the series
BUT
Shit execution and didn't have a proper set up which is weird for OP
The awakening of his power is him being able to apply his rubberyness to things other than himself makes perfect sense, that seems like the perfect evolution of his fruit.
By why make it a Zoan, you could've just as easily said that the Gomu Gomu was Nika's fruit.
Oda is Kishi 2.0
Kishi at least with editorial meddling Yeah because the whole Ninja great war and Kaguya shit was editorial meddling was able to deliver a story on a prudential time, Oda is going to complete 40 years and OP will be still running.
for that sole fact alone at least I have some respect for Kishi.
It's a great reveal that fits his character perfectly. People think "oh a mythical zoan he must be the broken chosen one!" but it really just gives him what you'd expect of a rubber fruit awakening
The nika fruit and gear 5 shouldn't have been the same thing. If gear 5 was just gomu gomu no mi awakening there would be no complaints but muh legendary devil fruit is a bit retarded
It wasn't even broken, it still took everything he had to beat Kaido.
Not to mention Kaido had fought all of Oden's retainers, his own daughter who had the guardian deity of Wano's mythical zoan, Kidd & Killer, Law, and Luffy like 3 times before he finally went down. And he was shitfaced drunk the entire time.
You forgot his main theme now.
Why the fuck is this version the only one I can find on Youtube now? It's so boring compared to the first one, it was really loud and bombastic and sounded way better.
Glad I can still listen to it, but it sucks that the actual intro itself got nuked for some reason. There used to be multiple videos of it, now the only ones left are inherently inferior.
Pirates?
KAIZOKU DAAAAAAAAAAAA
I farted the nastiest wet diarrhea fart of my life just when Robin's ass came on the screen. I will forever associate her ass with a nuclear taco bell blast now, fuck.
i-is that a nipple slip on Robin?
Should be, but no areola coloring.
I’m like halfway through Alabasta and unless it gets way better as it goes I think 74 is a fine score. Combat is piss easy and there’s a damn near constant stream of back tracking and cut scenes after cut scenes. But the character interactions in the story have been fun to watch and the monster designs are cool, so there’s that
It's way too easy and they mostly use the "our memories aren't the exact same" shtick to cut story and characters from the arcs and replace them with filler, rather than constructing interesting "what if" scenarios. Most of Baroque Works isn't even present in Alabasta, you just spend the whole chapter fighting scorpions and running through caves. Also they don't give you Franky until more than halfway through and that's horseshit
There isn't a single good game based on anime
Yu-Gi-Oh is pretty good.
I'd kill for a Battle City JRPG made by Bandai that scores a 72 on Metacritic.
I want a Yu-Gi-Oh game directed by Kojima.
>Walk forward 10 feet
>Cutscene
>Try and go look around
>Get teleported back and told I can't go that way
I'm only three hours in does this get better
No.
Alabasta let's you breathe a little bit but don't get too excited don't go exploring.
For a game based on literally FREEDOM THE ANIME, this shit doesn't let you do ANYTHING unless it specifically tells you to first.
Is the manga close to being finished? Haven't touched it in a decade or so.
In 10 years approximately
last arc starting now, so like 3 more years
Not even close.
Oda puts it at 5 years.
Which really means 8-10.
Close depends on your perspective. It's on the final saga, but that could cover multiple years more.
Apparently we started the """"final"""" saga. The last saga lasted a decade.
Is the One Piece even real? It seems like bait.
It is real
ITS REEEEEEAL
The One Piece will take Laboon home.
Oda confirmed it's a physical object. Roger told Whitebeard what it was, which is why he yelled it was real in the first place. Whatever it was, combined with Joyboy's story, made Roger and his crew laugh early. And whatever it was, Roger and his crew got there too early, chances are the Nika fruit is needed to fully realize its potential. Also given the nature of the series, it'll be something that's absolutely goofy and ridiculous.
It's going to be a fruit that turns the person into gold and Luffy will punch that person.
We already got a gold fruit and that was non-canon movie thing.
And the thing about the movies (and fillers) is that Oda makes sure that fruits he plans for the manga don't get used in them for consistency reason.
We won't be seeing a gold dude in the manga.
>Oda makes sure that fruits he plans for the manga don't get used in them for consistency reason
That no longer applies after the latest chapter Stussy has the vampre fruit that the villain from Unlimited World Red had
Clearly Stussy got no vampire fruit, but IS a vampire due to clone shanannigans. Or it's just succubus fruit.
We don't know that yet. For all we know she just has the bat fruit to match with the other CP0 animals, or the succubi fruit.
Also there was a villain in a filler arc that had the exact same fruit as Oven.
>And whatever it was, Roger and his crew got there too early, chances are the Nika fruit is needed to fully realize its potential
O MY CHOSEN FRUIT
>And whatever it was, Roger and his crew got there too early, chances are the Nika fruit is needed to fully realize its potential.
It explicitly needs the three weapons and Poseidon wouldnt develop her powers for another few decades, any speculation on the Nika fruit is just that
No Wano yet?
Has Spongebob not dared to do anything wapanese outside karate?
this pic is old
but at least we have Wano version of school of athens
>Kiku + Dellinger stomach bulge
For the longest time, I thought ZKK stood for Zoro kisses Kiku
This would unironically be based.
Even more so if it played Memories. So Roger was actually listening to that song in the flashback.
>Oda confirmed it's a physical object
>The friends you made along the way, they are real, no?
Yes it's a real hysical object that will actually be used to do 'something'.
Oda himself already confirmed (any times btw) it WILL NOT be 'muh adventre waz da one piece' trash.
From in an story perspective Roger knew what it wa, and told Whitebeard. This lead to the famous
>"X" REALLY DOES EXIST
meme
Rayleigh was all about 3 seconds from telling Lufy what the OP actually is before Luffy said 'Tell me and I quit right now, never leaving Sabobody. I don't care because the Pirate King is simply the Freest Man on the Sea.'
Plus Oden wrote what it was in his journal.
>here's that pirate anime i was telling you about
>power scale
At least the animation is better for these fights
Over detail then Naruto final arc
Why do they sometimes animate the Zoan mouths when they talk and sometimes don't? I can't take it seriously when they show a giant dragon but his mouth stays still the whole time when he talks like he's communicating telepathically
Kaido is just an Ogremon fan.
Is this an episode?
yeah. the one that aired yesterday
And they say forced animation is a meme
>WTF IS THAT 1s OMG REEEEEE THAT'S NOT ALLOWED YOU CAN'T JUST ANIMATE THAT MANY FRAAAAAAAAMES
lmfao
>snout
maybe Yamato isn't that bad after all...
>Not having an erection for Humble Beginnings to World Ending Scenarios
I wanna complain, but this is a massive upgrade over the animation One Piece was getting after the time skip. Even if it's filled with effects all over the place.
Aren't high heels inefficient for combat and inappropriate for walking on wooden decking?
That doesnt matter, they look hot wearing them and thats what actually matters
Stop asking these questions
>RESPECT HIS HECKIN' PRONOUNS!
The reveal to this will be absolute kino, or horrid dog shit.
I'm very prepared.
The only thing I want is PW5 but with a decent budget. This DQ knockoff is dogshit and turn-based combat does not compliment how battles are played out in OP at all.

what did luffy mean by this
I love her

Yes.
Get over it already.
why are chuds so narcissistic?
yes. her
She'll join part way through Elbaf or just before Laugh Tale. She's too strong right now and would throw off the balance of Egg Island
He's cute.
See
oh noes the western rating
Why is there no rape in an anime about pirates?
But there is?
laugh on you
Someday we will get an actual good One Piece game. Someday.
The e 4kids game for GBA is pretty good.
OH SHIT
One Fade
i will not get this game until their are nude mods for the booba characters
Yeah all the adult characters
>Kaku, Kiku or whatever his name is managed to awaken his giraffe devil fruit

The dead ones are dead because they didn’t use awakening for some reason.
Kaido isn't awakened? a fucking fish becoming a dragon looks awakened for me
The dragon form is his fruit. He didn’t need special training or experience to get the form. I’m sure he can awaken, but he never used it. Same with Big Mom.
The hybrid form was the awakening retard-kun.
Silence you pasta machine fuck.
the fruit's name is fish-fish model Azure Dragon, he was never a fish
pay attention to the shit you're reading, or do you think Jabra is awakened because his dog-dog fruit turns him into a wolf? or Kaku's cow-cow fruit turning him into a Giraffe?
Don't you go mockin' giraffes.

>magically
Was always going to be important.
Based Weevil soon.
wtf????
how did noone see they both have the same name and post a theory before this?
are you guys fucking retarded?
Because the old lady was introduced as Miss Bakkin and the clones concept wasn't as big at that time
this is a misstranslation no?
in viz she was Miss Buckin
The katakana here
is Bakkin so that's what everyone went with
No one really reads the Viz translation I hope
Viz is actually correct on this. "Bakkin" is how japs would pronounce Buckingham, shortened of course.
I know, I'm saying that everyone goes with the scanlation names regardless. Few people pay attention to the Viz translation (lmao Zolo) so even if they get a translation correct, no one references it to theorycraft
did they never call the old lady stussy at one point
She's only appeared twice in the manga and when she was introduced her text block says Miss Buckin. So no, there was no way to tie either character together until this last chapter. The most we knew about Buckin was when Marco mentioned she was a pirate a long time ago and comments she was never around Whitebeard during his time as the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates despite them allegedly being lovers. It's only now that we're learning Buckin is a short for Buckingham and her name is Stussy just like her clone.
Wait she's a fucking clone?
How was I supposed to piece this together this morning? I forgot all about Baskin 500 chapters ago
>Doflamingo
btfo by two non-awakened fruit users

>Law

>Kid

>Monkey D. Luffy
will need even more asspull powerups to stand a chance against blackbeard, akainu, shanks,etc
I don't even think Luffy beating Katakuri made sense in terms of power progression. Strongest guy he beat where it still felt natural to me was Doflamingo.
If you think lava is enough to kill Big meme and Kaido, lol.
Kaido thinks fruits are for shitters and real men use Haki.
You're forgetting that Kaku is still a chump despite the awakening and Kaido took everything Awakened Luffy had to beat
awakening is a side buff, see the zoan jailors of impel down.
Monster point is also an awakening but it depends on the strength of the user and how well they cna use their DF
Awakenings require both your mind and body to catch up to your fruit. When all you do is
>get drunk
>think of ways to have a nice day
you won't awaken shit. Kadio just didn't give a fuck.
Blackbeard is busy fighting Law god knows where. Garp will lay siege to Beehive and free Coby but him and Blackbeard won't meet.
whys it called one pived
what does one piece mean
whats the piece
why is it one
is there one pice of something
or is a piece of the one
wtf does it even mean
one piece of shit
ok but then why would you just have one if there can be multiple of it
why not all the pieces of shit why just one why is there only one
Actually it's Nep Ece
I really hope you are being retarded on purpose anon.
But if not.
The name refers to Gold Roger's execution.
The man was known as 'The King of the Pirates' due to sailing the entirety of the whole.
Upon his execution day while he was on the stand he yelled out to the crowd 'I have left my treasure, all of it, in one place. If you desire it go forth and find it' or something to that affect.
This was basically a massive 'fuck you' to the World Government/Marines who believed that killing Roger, very pubically, would put an end to the dwindling piracy in the world.
Instead his last words massively ignited piracy across the global.
It is The One Piece of all of Roger's treasures.
Later in the story WhiteBeard is fighing in a war and put nearly to dead, much like with Roger the hopes of WB dying would kneecap piracy was part of the reason the WG wantd WB dead.
Once more though a massive 'fuck you' came about.
With one of his final acts, with the war basically streamed globally to all nations WB oudly, confidently and proudly exclaimed 'THE ONE PIECE REALLY DOES EXIST!" so that the new generation of pirates would not be demoralized by his death, but instead react with more determination.
DAIO
DAIO DAIIIIOOOO
UH OHHHHHHH
SET SAIL FOR ONNNNNNNE PIECE
ITS THE NAME
OF THE TREASURE ON THE
GRAAAAAAAAAAND LIIIIIIIIINE
>ITS THE NAME
OF THE TREASURE ON THE
GRAAAAAAAAAAND LIIIIIIIIINE
This fucking shit plays through my head too often.
>huh...? looks like i... finally made it to /a/
Nami is for Luffy.
have a nice day LuNatic subhuman
SaNa is canon
Enies Lobby is the best arc in the series. One of the only times everyone in the team gets development and feels useful. Plus of course the introduction of Gears (back when they had actual drawbacks).
lawbros..
Carrot is never joining the Strawhats.
I like Gintama more than One Piece.
Ancient Zoans and Mythic Zoans may not be able to awaken, Luffy so far is the only exception and even then his fruit treads a line between Zoan and Paramecia.
It's always strange that no one barely brings up OP's western influences. It's always viewed through the lens of being a Shonen first.
Is Luffy based on Mr. Fantastic?
They have no similarities whatsoever aside from having the same superpower, so unlikely.
>no similarities whatsoever aside from having the same superpower
Is Plastic Man based on Mr. Fantastic? And Luffy can't even do a fraction of the things that those two can anyway.
>Every person with the same superpower is based on each other
Ok
Luffy is based on old rubberhose cartoons like Popeye.
Makes sense.
That blatant Rifle.
yo popeye is real as shit
I remember laughing my ass off at those back in 2009 on /co/. my how time flies.
>Brilliant scientist
I hate that I will forever associate this specific word arrangement with dbz. Hate that I will chuckle at it, that is.
Me on the right
I just want to see all the sexo scenes easy.
Any good sites for that?
Luffy isnt a cuck so no
I am watching One Piece and I just reached the Marineford arc.
What am I in for?
No, I will not read the manga.
Marineford is boring, but the afterwar is cool
Also, Sabaody/Amazon Lily/Impel Down is the best part of One Piece
Gaimon and Sarfunkel.
i miss getting to hear the ending songs. that was my favourite
Good taste, my favorite was this one. Asia Engineers have good songs, sadly only one of them is on Spotify. It's amazing how many Japanese artists aren't on American Spotify, like there is a lot of anime music on Spotify but there is also a lot of songs/artists that aren't.
yesss was just showing eternal pose to my friend earlier today. they had such nice sound for ending off an episode. its crazy its been almost 20 years since theres been an ending song to the anime
I cried when this started to play for HE LAUGHED.
i havent been keeping up with the anime in a while but scenes like this make me want to start watching it again. having the music go along with it always makes it feel a lot more impactful, very nice! maybe ill do one pace like i hear people say
Anime can surprise pleasantly, like sudden instrumental WE ARE during Whole Cake Island.
Or the music for Merry's funeral
yep i stopped watching the anime a bit after the funeral but i always remember that scene being so great with the audio
The first ED playing when Roger gets to Laugh Tale is pure SOVL too
It’s a licensed game. An average score is expected.
74 is better than a western AAA getting a 90+
So when do the anime's OPs stop being 10/10s?
If your answer is any OP that was before Share the World, you're objectively wrong.
SANJI'S COOKING
CHOPPA'S GOT THE RING
Right in the sense that the One Piece rap is an 11/10, technically not a 10
The real answer is Hands Up.
its choppers doctoring
HERE'S HOW THE STORY GOES
WE FIND OUT THAT THE TREASURE ON PIRATE YEAH THERE'S NOT DOUBT
LUFFY HE COMING HE GONNA GET THAT
HE'LL BE KING OF THE PIRATES SING IT WITH HIM
i really liked fight together, i think that was the last one i was really crazy about
That OP just makes me sad
it makes me a little sad too but its the last song i enjoyed a lot. the newer ones havent been my style as much i guess
first bad opening was Kaze wo Sagashite (12th). then almost every single one starting from Hands Up (16th). and yes, I base my opinion on when I switched to the manga and therefore stopped building nostalgic feelings for those openings
I hope you're not saying One Day wasn't a 20/10
no, One Day is great. I only dislike 12, and 16-present (with a few exceptions here and there)
12OP first half sucks.
But when Ace starts walking shit gets good, then we get Luffy running through all the impel down levels, that's A GREAT OPENING.
The beginning is shit though.
SET SAIL FOR THE ONE PIECE
ITS THE NAME OF THE TREASURE
You know it's a shame because if it wasn't turn based I think people would have been way more into it. The visuals are really good and overall I'm still having fun, but yeah, the questing is pretty monotonous, a lot of fetch quests and kill quests, and the combat gets boring pretty quick.
>durr what's the best OP OP
For me? It's opening 5 kino.
?t=498
Sounds like a goddamn lucky star OP.
Share the Urouge. Always and forever.
I've been hearing that they finally upped the animation quality in the anime, is that true? Because I don't believe it, I don't believe Toei can do anything other than cheap out.
Wano has been upping the animation. Not sure if I can agree is as "quality".
For 2 minutes out of every 20
>Director from DBS Broly takes over
>Gets everyone organized
>Invites top animators that actually care about One Piece and want to improve it
Now I'm not gonna lie to you and say all the 22 minutes are pure kino, but there's definitely at least 2 minutes of quality animation for the most part, and since this is a WEEKLY anime instead of a seasonal one, I think that's still really impressive.
Wano gets the rare 1-2 minutes of high-quality animation every other episode, and the rare actually good episode once every 1-2 months
the average animation quality is still miles better than Dressrosa, but it's nothing to write home about other than the previously mentioned special moments. the pacing is still crap, for example
but something like ep 1015 stands above most other anime episodes I've ever watched, not just for One Piece but in general
>the pacing is still crap, for example
They have to, it's that or just go on hiatus or worse, filler arcs.
Yeah sometimes
>Wasting that animation budget on jobbers dispatching even bigger jobbers
What a waste.
You just know Nami and Robin fuck Monster Chopper every night on the poop deck.
>female Law
Thought?
Should've stayed that way.
speaking of openings, are we getting a new one before act 3 ends?
We need a new opening, or it's about time for one. We haven't had a new opening in a year I think, I thought they usually give at least 2-3 new openings a year.
It doesn't feel like a year but I think it has been.
Over The Top stayed for 43 episodes
Dreamin' On for 69 episodes
Paint has been on for 43 so far
act 3 should end around episode 1090 or something, so if they don't change the opening until it's over Paint will stay for 80 something episodes, which would be way above average
I hope we get some Merry Melodies type opening for Gear 5.
probably around gear5.
I wish Robin was still brown
She was never brown, toei fucked up.
That being said I think it's cool that ODA Planned or maybe it was a big coincidence, for all brown characters to have their 2 year break in places with little to no sun.
>Zoro? eternal night island
>Robin? Snowiest place
>Franky? Snow and inside a lab
>She was never brown, toei fucked up.
I'm aware, but fucking up was the correct decision
I agree, I miss tanned Zoro and brown Robin.
Post favorite ost
Share the World is still the best, even though there's been some pretty good ones since. Brand New World is also great.
I feel something everytime this comes on
What chapter of the manga does this song play?
It never plays in the manga
Pretty sure that plays when the crew state their dreams before entering the Grand Line, so chapter 100.
The GOAT
It's probably more than ten years since I watched the anime. I might he just watch the he laughed episode. Which one is it?
968.
thanks
I think I stopped around Enies Lobby and started reading the manga
Really? The anime handled EL pretty well
I watched EL
I last watched the Marineford arc. I don't even remember how long ago that aired.
Me too.
I got so tired of Toei shitting up animation and pacing for le ebin episode counts.
Fuck toei
I'm enjoying Clone Piece unironically
Ready for Zoro = Ryuma's clone reveal?
I mean he already fought Ryuma so why not.
no one is anyone's close until proven otherwise
>Tashigi is totally Kuina's clone!!
she's 1 year younger than her, who the fuck would clone a 1 years old and for what fucking reason
anyone's clone*
Dragon is a clone of Rocks
>Bonney is Big Meme's clone
They have so many similarities I almost feel like it's a red herring.
She'd be a giant.
Yeah that's the main thing throwing that theory off, although she could potentially be an imperfect clone.
Considering we are talking about big mom it makes more sense for her to have raped Kuma and that is how Bonney came to be
Sanji is for Pudding only
Gomen ne...
thank you for unlocking a trauma
So Law is going to get fucked by Blackbeard right?
He's getting fucked right now
Without question. Dude has NO chance against him. If oda pulls a reversal that Law comes out unscathed, it will be absolute bullshit
Female Law is taking the Big Blackbeard Cock right as we speak
No matter how broken Laws power is, Blackbeards ability is even more broken. Law stands zero chance at all. He has nothing but shitters on his team.
I think Oda will pull a curveball and have Law beat Blackbeard, but then get fucked by Shiryu. Law is a huge money printer, so there’s no way he gets killed or beaten
This garbage show destroyed pirates the same way Naruto destroyed ninjas. Garbage, garbage shows.
k
pirate wizards!
>he doesn't love the batshit insanity of Pirate Ball Z
KWAB
Why the fuck is this so expensive?
Record companies.
what do you guys think is the best one piece game?
Grand Battle Rush
The one on GBA.
Obviously Odyssey.
How does he have room to fit all of his tech/body modifications while in normal form?
>HEY ANON! Remember that time I got doubles and derailed the entire thread?!
No.
Buggy will split atoms and create nuclear bombs.
I truly hope so.
He's an idiot savant.

Also good
I'm glad you approve.
It looks like she starved the fuck out of herself for that cosplay
In the early 2000s, a 7 meant it was good.
>Games use a high school grading /100
>50 or lower is obviously a fail
>In that sense it's really only 5-10 for the scores
>Which is just a 5 star review score
Easy as shit game, really it's soooo fucking easy, I felt Scarlet was more challenging.
74 is a good score it's a 7/10
Im still shocked that the end of wano arc has luffy die to the point where people can no longer sense his haki, only to have his heart restarted by his rubber fruit awakening, and not a single person goes around spamming the meme.
I started playing the card game last month and I'm already bored of it. Sure it's only one set in it can improve but NOTHING interesting is being added in the next two sets either.
>buy one box for close to retail
>get that nami
>no friends to play with
>even if they wanted to play there is literally no stock in all of Australia
well the Nami is worth double what you paid for the box at least
Yeah I lucked out and got alt art Nami plus Shanks and alt art Shanks so I got close to the best box possible
I was psyched for it but I got burned out almost immediately. Bunch of people in my local area that play were some of the most try hard motherfuckers I’ve ever seen. I’m guessing others felt the same because the tournaments at my FLGS went from having 20-30 players to maybe 8 and it’s the ones with the bad attitudes and the netdecks that are still sticking it out now that everyone else was chased off
In all honesty One Piece would've been better if Luffy and co did more pirate stuff. They are pirates that barely do any pirating.
They're the good guys so they were never going to do anything more than occasional stealing
Pirate in the setting just means you don't believe in the World Government's rules
>set out as a pirate
>you're just so cool and likable that everyone gives you shit and helps you
the other crews just needed some girls with huge tits like the strawhats
Why is it impossible for One Piece to get good games? Naruto and Dragon Ball have like 10 billion games.
Most of Naruto’s and DB best games came out once they ended/mostly ended so there was room to use the source to its fullest. One Piece is largely limited due to Oda still holding a bunch of mystery boxes to himself and still holding back guys like Shanks, Mihawk, and Dragon, etc.
That’s part of why Odyssey is so boring. The rpg gameplay elements are pretty good, but its campaign is so un-engaging that it becomes a slog.
Another thing is that fights aren’t One Piece’s strong suit. It’s the world building and adventure. People want to sail and see all sorts of islands not just explore hallways or beat on a bajillion mooks all the time. But a game that tries to offer an authentic One Piece experience would likely be too expensive for a licensed anime game.
I wasn't surprised that the game wasn't great or anything, but after all the hype I can't fucking believe how bland and boring it is. It's legit a 3-4/10, just an absolute shit slog. I was expecting...I dunno, at least a 6? And I was still horribly disappointed. Even big OP fans are going to fucking hate this game.
So, what'd you think?
Understandable.
That whole episode was pure unfiltered sex.
God I love woman on woman violence with no mercy.
I like that Oda has no qualms about letting women get all sorts of fucked up.
Choose
BIG ONI MILKERS
robin > boa > yamato > nami = vivi
Fine taste.
I love g5 so much bros
It was more than I ever expected, and so insanely fun. The G5 OC was some of the most fun I've seen in recent memory.
One Piece is better than Hunter Hunter.
cant believe what those morons did to archeage without telling anybody who had preordered it completetly flipping the scrtips and assfucking all of its playerbase 1 day into the game releasing
>sets up the most kino Usopp fight in your path
>Ussop develops future sight haki to snipe where Augur teleports
KINO
Really hope Oda goes somewhere great with Usopp's development. His role in Film Red was great.
Man some filler felt like fever dreams, this one is a blast from the past.
I miss when One Piece was allowed to have filler.
>he doesn't know
>I miss when One Piece was allowed to have filler.
One Piece filler unironically sucked ass. I got into OP back in 2020 and did a blind viewing of it and I could tell what was filler and what wasn't just because of how stark the contrast in writing was.
Also Toeis tan pre-timeskip is so funny. How on earth do they always fuck up color schemes and can't bother to just ask the Manga authors for advice before implementing their shit. I still find it funny you have SJW's crying and reeeing how she was "whitewashed" and then make ugly garbage like this.
I'm glad that Odyssey kept the tradition of showing Robin's ass crack.
They just did whatever they wanted because One Piece hadn't yet become the powerhouse it would be. You don't see that shit happening nowadays. I'm aware that the filler isn't great, but it definitely would've been preferable to seeing the anime utterly mutilate the manga with rancid pacing and stretching out scenes to ungodly lengths. And SJWs are never worth listening to, they're hypocrites of the highest order.
>You don't see that shit happening nowadays.
Well we did a few times, the last major filler we had happened right before Whole Cake Island with the naval base they infiltrated. I just find that stuff unbelievably boring. It's worse when the filler bleeds over into the canon episodes like with movie shit (Z's Ambition Arc after Fishman Island) and completely alters it.
>You don't see that shit happening nowadays.

cont:
Watch us get another filler arc before Egghead island is introduced in the anime btw.
I should have specified, I meant the things like color scheme alterations. Sometimes that was for the best, otherwise we'd still have orange creamsicle Kuma. God only knows what Oda as thinking there.
That's the dream.
Too high a score tbh.
Can't believe Bamco dropped Ganbarion for this
What exactly is the One Piece anyway?
>ywn carry Robin through the ocean
living a quiet life with robin and our children
Looks nothing like Robin.
Would you?
Get yo eyes checked
>Would you?
no
I diagnose you with gay.
I just don't wanna fuck fem Luffy
but I would Yamato
Your loss. Imagine how big her rubber tits could get.
I prefer big natural boobs, like Yamato's
Those breasts are far from fake.
Sugar turned her into a sex doll
Looking forward to the next One Piece fap thread!
