was the only thing I didn't like about the film. It's just my personal feelings that I don't want the latest and greatest thing to get spammed everywhere. Gold was also the only OP film I could really stomach since it felt like it was a REALLY good filler arc almost, with tesaros past being really well done without ever actually having a flashback. Also basically having Doflamingo 2.0 worked out in the end.



Same way I watched all of OP years ago, think Amazon Lily was just happening in the anime when I fully caught up

Regarding your spoiler, I get where you're coming from, but imo, would've been weirder if they didn't use it. Gotta go out with a bang as they say.

The feels franky won me over during the timeskip he was great on punk hazard and dressrosa

As much I love godssop, franky was the real mvp of dressrossa boy put it work, it was his idea to team up with dwarves to take down daffy

By the way the senior pink vs franky fight was 100 times better in the anime then the manga.

There was never a good group doing One Piece fan subbing, let alone a great one.

Trying to find all of One Piece before the simulsubs by Funimation was a painful process. Thank the maker I caught up pretty much exactly as that came into being.

Novel Ace's author turns out to be Shou Hinata (ひなたしょう), known for Naruto novels and such.

A short novel about Straw Hats will also be included in ONE PIECE Magazine volume 1.

Oda says that when he was a kid reading Shonen Jump, most of the stories tended to be inconsistent. He liked Kinnikuman around that time.
During that period of Jump, they'd introduce a new character(s) in a big fashion one week and the next week, those characters would quietly be phased out.

Mangaka prioritized writing a fun and interesting story above all else and thus consistency took a backseat.
Kids also didn't really care about just issues and would read it regardless so when Oda decided to become a mangaka, he decided he would make everything consistent.
The past and future and all characters would be connected and wouldn't be phased out like in the past. One Piece represents this objective.

However, currently he says that people have become rather nagging about manga. They will look through the various inconsistencies or contradictions with a more fine tooth comb.
He said that in the past Shonen Jump was read almost exclusively by kids but now adult also read jump so that may be one of the reasons for this "new" nagging.
Now, Mangaka, in order to satisfy these older readers, have to make sure everything is correct and doesn't become inconsistent.

Oda himself feels slightly responsible for this. However, when creating a story, making sure everything is connected or all the events have been properly foreshadowed of hinted; "rules" like these do not exist.
He says that, as a challenge, he created a story where everything is consistent but normally you can freely create stories without having to do all of these.
Stories like "the nutcracker and the mouse king", which were created to entertain people are born through this "free" writing.

Oda's consistency (in the things he wants to be consistent about anyway) has always been the one thing I can respect about OP. He's not wrong that it's possible to enjoy a story without consistency, but it's almost universally better to have it except in a few selective circumstances.

It's a good thing that he raised the standard of storytelling in Shonen in that regard for other mangaka, and he's going "Naw, guys, you don't need to do all that"?

Maybe it's reverse psychology. "I know most of you other mangaka out there can't consistent for as long as I have been, so don't even bother trying."

Except they do try. We get better manga. Everybody wins.

Calling him the "Brook of Dressrosa" is a stretch, but whatever. And I thought it was Hakuba that took down Dellinger...

Honestly, the main reason I don't fuck with Franky as much (Well, aside from me just liking everyone more atm) is because I dislike characters that need stuff like General Franky in order to be at their strongest. It's just disappointing to look at that character fight, and then I'm like "Wait, why do I care, Franky's not in his mecha suit, so this just got a lot more boring." It'd be one thing if he could access it whenever he wanted, but he can't... So yea.

Just wait, Franky will eventually get some Oda-twisted version of Tony Stark's extremis except it'll be horrifying

The end of the chapter isn't implying what I think it is, right?

If so...that's by far the most fucked up thing in One Piece.

(Also, I think Viz misspelled John Giant as "Jun Giant")

Yeah but I can still have a fondness for old sub groups lol. They did their best when we had no official channels. Torrenting batches of anime seems so distant now.
Anyway I was more nostalgic about one piece itself and the not process of how I was watching it.

Oh man, I caught up when I saw Luffy vs Lucci in HD, Because HD broadcast anime was still a really new thing that shit blew me away and made me really want to get into it.

Not like we haven't seen people eat humans and OP.

Zeff ate his foot and technically Wapol ate himself.

So next someone will go write an absurdist manga where there's some loose canon but mostly random shit just happening however, like if Regular Show were a manga.

Well, yeah, but...they're kids!

I figured Law's flashback would be the darkest example of dead kids in OP but...Jesus Christ.

Has Oda been reading Promised Neverlamd?

I read this the other day. It's an old interview from 2014.
Consistency has always been one of Oda's strong suits and it's been even more apparent post-time skip.
Every New World arc has bled into each other with characters appearing as far back as 200 chapters ago (Caesar, Momonosuke, Kinemon, Aladdin, Pekoms, Koala) re-appearing and becoming more important to the story.

No they didn't. One of the fan translations made it clear that it's not John Giant.

To be fair something like Mushi shi and Kino journey or what i seen of them doesn't need to be "consistent"

Flashback was great, although it got really dark quick.

The 3 things I'd most like to see the rest of the arc:
-Sanji getting some wins (probably going to happen)
-Germa 66 not feeling like a waste of time (not as likely)
-Something good happening to Pekoms (who knows)
