I know that but I find it really suspicious that they have the exact same hair color
I was just messing around, not that I expect anything after the awful oneshot
Well yeah it seems so, but it feels really forced, we never have heard of this guy before and now he has conquerors haki, armarment haki and has a super high bounty.
Just a fight against Flamingo's henchmen and Flamingo self would also be a real threat
We never heard of Ceasar Clown but he has a big impact on the world and a powerful Logia fruit.
I'm sure there's going to be plenty of new villains with Haki we never heard of down the line. Not everyone needs foreshadowing.
Isn't that the whole point of the New World? They need to face unforseen challenges. All they really know about it is that the Four Emperors exist there.
The One Piece world is gigantic. We were obviously going to be introduced to more big players in the world, with high bounties, once we got to the New World.
One Piece
This fight should be good and the first true measuring stick for Luffy post-timeskip.

You guys are probably right, I'm probably only mad because Oda didn't thought of that high Bounty's before. Big Players which were introduced very early now seem to have quite a low BH compared to those new faces.
Well let's see what happens, are there any good theories what the connection between Bartholomeo and Luffy is?

Finally the mooks (I would possibly care more if they were not just introduced in a tournament block where the MC is also in) are out of the way and now to see what Luffy has learnt while fighting this guy (who shrugged off a Luffy/Cavendish team up eariler).

Did we read the same chapter? The action was dull and really apart from just a headbutt there was no feeling of a legitimate threat.

OMG I missed this news a few days ago. So excited! I can't wait to see what Urasawa does with a one-shot monster manga. Most exciting manga announcement in ages.

I don't see why that's a negative. The Straw Hats have always lived in their own little bubble not caring about anything outside their group (maybe Robin). Besides, I don't need an entire arc hyping people up.
Then again, I also think this is one of the best arcs since Sabaody.

Good start to this butler story. The master is pretty hilarious in some of the things he desires and comments on for Aoi, and does have an interesting side to him to make him charming in some sort of way. Looking forward to how they develop in the future.

That attack won't do squat to Obito.
It was still an exciting chapter just to see that teamwork with 2/4 Hokage and Naruto/Sasuke.

Weaklings are now gone.
Time for the main event.

i rather like this chapter. it's the same type of build up before, where beasts are shown to get eaten by bigger beasts until we get to luffy and his ultimate opponent.
i like old man don chinjao too. he's dripped just enough info that makes him sound interesting and has got me wanting to know more about him. he's got incredibly hostile feelings towards garp, and the translation says that garp took "power" away from him. what is this power? does it mean he was even stronger before? or just influence and the freedom of him to move his army? and why did he step down when he is clearly still much more powerful than his successor? and how strong is garp? how strong is luffy now, in comparison to garp?

We all knew Sakura was going to get shafted. Her summoning the slug and saying she can keep up with Sasuke and Naruto was just fan service.

That technique is way more efficient than the time Goku held Raditz for Piccolo.

I'm glad that parts over, I couldn't follow anything happening with all those people in the tournament anyways.
I've seen some stupid devil fruit powers before but the jacket fruit takes the cake, lol.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
The Edo Tensei are obviously going to be dismissed at some point by Orochimaru and Naruto/Sasuke will have to fight them.
Orochimaru's got some shit up his sleeve.
That time skip was three years ago.

Sakura's moment to shine is already long forgotten about lol

Next week should be awesome. Hopefully we learn more about this guy and his relationship to Garp

I have quite the imagination myself, but Oda completely blows me away with the stuff he thinks of. He's the only person I know that made stretching, separating body parts, and magnetic powers look cool when in other media it doesn't look so cool.
One Piece
Finally the scrubs are gone and it's getting to the only fight in the block I remotely cared about. Don's headbutt was pretty cool and I expect him to try it again on Luffy. Looks like the next chapter is either going to be Don and Luffy's fight or go back to Luffy's crew. Either way get hype!

Hahahaha, when Luffy and Don kicked the other two away. That was pretty good.
Dunno though, I can't really see this fight being THAT big of a deal for Luffy. For one, the guy's past his prime, which is Jump for "lose easily with hints to what could have happened if he was younger".. and then, there's the fact Luffy has bigger opponents to go through afterwards.
Looking forward to the fight and it should be great, but not the kind of mess Luffy usually gets into.

I forgot to mention how much I appreciate that the scanlators for Yamada and the Seven Witches chose to localize it to the best of their ability instead of merely translating it. Although I don't agree with all their decisions (Noa initially referring to Yamada as "mister", for example, it sounds awkward given the character's ages and is distracting. I think that they would have been better off using something like "man", "dude", etc or just choosing to use nothing at all in those instances) and sometimes certain dialogue comes off as "too much", I still enjoyed their work overall and appreciate that they even bothered to try in the first place.
I think Marvel does those just fine.

I actually think the opposite and think they do a mildly crappy job; they add in a bunch of regional jokes that are distracting in that they're clearly just shit the translators invented. I don't really want to read the translators ideas for jokes.

I dont know, sometimes its fine in the context of the characters joking and what not but other times it just feels really out of place.
Oh well, hopefully if the drama comes out in english it is given nearly similar treatment...
I can completely understand where you're coming from on this. Those can be pretty weird and/or cringe worthy and just plain distracting. I have to assume that some of those instances are where Yoshikawa is making some very Japan-specific joke or something and instead of translating it with explanations in the margins they chose to put in their own thing.
Still, I appreciate them trying. It's, like, since their approach is realtively unique among most of the scanlations I come across, that I just end up forgiving their missteps and shortcomings more so than if it were a professional project. I'm more willing to overlook the questionable stuff.

Hey my prediction was right the 2nd hokage intervened, good chapter liked the team work, Sasuke wanting to save the day on his own, has he swapped places with Naruto now? don't know why Madara has no choice but to fight Shodai, my guess is the next few chapters will switch between Madaras fight and 10 tails fight, until the hokages arrive with Orochimaru B+

I really hate the whole fists turning black thing. I thought it was because of Luffy vulcanizing his rubber body but now every haki guy has it and it looks lame. besides I don't recall Haki guys using it prior to the time skip.
Garps fists never turned black when he punched people using haki
That sumo guy's fists never turned black when he punched luffy
Is there an explanation for this somewhere

Yeah it was definitely retconned in after the time skip. If you want a reason, I'm willing to bet it's some kind of editor interference.
At least there's comfort in the fact that it's not everywhere (yet?). When Luffy grabbed CC, his hands didn't turn black. I also don't expect Zoro's swords to turn black either (as far as I remember, Tashigi's didn't, even though Vergo's stick did).
Really it's a bit of a mess all around. But oh well.
I'd bet on it being editorial. They probably just wanted a way to differentiate between two punches.
