One Piece will never become a shitty series like that. The best example of that would have to naruto.

>>19404

He hasn't gotten into a real fight since then. His one-shots do seem to be one sword only so far, but I'm sure when shit gets real he'll bring them all out.

I thought the same thing but I re-read the chapters since the time skip. When they were fighting the Kraken, Zoro had all three swords out when he cut the Kraken's tentacle.

Shit hasn't gotten real yet.

>>19463

Dude. Just have Franky be like Big Mac.

WELP here's a thing

>>19499
pshaw! And make things easy for myself?
If I get enough complaints I'll pony him up, but over the past few days I got attached to my silly diamond-dog Franky idea.

>>19538
...very good...

>>19508
No, I think that in such a universe where Luffy's crew were Marines... Tashigi and Smoker would be Pirates.

>>19518
So would also have Admiral Whitebeard and Admiral Shanks? Prison escapee Magellan? Crocodile the rightful-ruler-of-Alabasta?

>>19519
>>19518
I was thinking that the only difference was that The Strawhats were in the Marines.

The 4 emperors being in the Marines would break the power balance and the WG would quickly take over the world.

Hey now we're just following Lord Oda's example.

There's a man who's more than happy to discuss the properties of a penis.

I miss Caska. I don't want to start a shit storm but she's one of the best female characters I've seen written. she kicks ass, takes name, but she's still who she is. She blindly followed Griffith after being saved by him but loved Guts instead.

Then lol rape and now she's a broken character who is forced to be rescued every 5 minutes. I really REALLY want them to hurry the fuck up and get to Elf Island so they can restore her memories already.

>>19383
Though even if she can be "healed" in Elfland it not certain she'll be the same as she was before.

>>19260
Hey man, there's some shockingly convincing trannies out there.. erm, women. And their weewee's look just like a woman's post op.

Manliness is not in the penis, it's in the heart!

>>19272
But in order to be a man you must have honor... honor and a penis.

Roughly 168 hours.

I see Jimbei and Mihawk are going for the Freddie Mercury looking: Shaving the legs but not the 'stache

>>14830
Wich brings up the question where nami keeps her three conviniently shaped "sticks" that make up her weapon

>>18736
*innoncent oblivious poster*You usually see them strapped to her leg I believe.

>>19065
Thanks. What about Arabasta/Alabasta and Shiryu?

>>19106
Arabasta has always been Arabasta.. not to be confused with Alubarna, the capital. Though I personally like the pronunciation of "Alabasta" better, but oh well.

Shiliew of the Rain. Though it's pronounced as Shiryu.

>>19106

By the way, Xusasu Basasu is Jesus Burgess

>>18964
And then in the backstory, there's only four or five. That sounds like a lot, but it's not really that many. You've got your basic two hate groups, Arlong and the World Government. You've got Otohime and the fishmen that want to just get along with everybody. And you've got the Sun Pirates, that just try and stay neutral while not actually getting involved in the Fishmen/Human situation, but can't help themselves due to the nature of the world and the people who live in it.

Granted, it is complex, but I don't know if it's really in a way that makes things hard to follow and not in a way that's really self-contradicting.

>>18965
While this flashback serves to cast light on the backstory, it's not really important in the grand scheme of what's going on currently with the Strawhats (aside from maybe Jinbe's message about Hodi, which is honestly the only relevant tie to the current timeline I've found).
I'm not trying to sound like an asshole or anything, but this is hardly the most complicated arc we've had. Thinking back.. I don't really think any OP arc has been a brain stumping puzzle or anything.

Oh fuck me the new chapter ;_;

>>18896

Do you have no understanding of context? Or do you believe that there is only one unending conversation that stretches back from now to Wheneverthefuck? I mean, if you had said "So, the flashback's direction makes it seem as though it's more of a Calgara type deal than a new nakama type deal in that it focuses on history in order to give context for current events. Jinbe joining is still not happening" you could have started a new topic of conversation. Instead, you jump in the middle of an argument that doesn't exist and start brawling with the ghosts of Jinbe supporters. What?

>>18897
I'm a ghost brawler, what can I say?

>>18815

Nobody cares anymore, but I need to make an addition to this timeline. In chapter 619, Jinbe says that he released Arlong 11 years ago. That means that Queen Otohime wasn't actually in danger of dying during the chapter that just came out. Good thing I forgot about it, because if I had I wouldn't have been worried about Otohime at all.

>>18872
They don't want to pull a FMA and go with a crappy divergence on a story that's only halfway done.

But I honestly can't even watch the anime anymore. Flashbacks up the fucking wazoo and shitty filler do not make for good storytelling.

They really need to take a break and show some damn reruns.

>>18916
They should do it America style, and switch One Piece out with another popular anime while showing reruns of One Piece. They should do this with everything they show. Then we wouldn't need so much filler.

And that would mean we wouldnt have to go through "One Piece: Grand Cruise" in 2019 where they show "Only What Was In The Manga™."

>>18923
I actually like some of the independent filler arcs, though. You can tell the crew behind them really loves the characters, and there's a lot of funny stuff.

Now, the sticking filler shit into the canon story thing, that I could do without.

>>18548
I guess you can say they are lagger then life!

is there a picture similar to this one but with comparing the size of all giants that have appeared so far?

Man, lookit the size of Moria's gunt
