Trust me if Mario
1- Becomes a real thing in Jump
2- Becomes as big as Naruto
I'll be looking to jump to another dimension, ideally one where Kishimoto didn't waste all the potential of Naruto and where Togashi and Miura are super motivated and release HxH/Berserk every issue without missing a beat.
BB talks a big game but he knows he's not at the level to follow through yet. But the guy has plans and real ambition.
And I'm sure I'll learn more of that through the series. He feels like he'll be one of, if not THE, major villains going forward. His crew is nuts.
I just want the Strawhats back together
And damn opening 13 just gets heavier and heavier as this arc goes.
Everything that's new in those episodes will be covered again in the next episode after them, so they are safe to skip.
Check out the Straw Hat Theater shorts that go with those episodes, though!
Hey, remember when Akainu's meteor fist singed Whitebeard's moustache? In the manga, it cleaved off half of his face. That's right, he did that entire rampage and caused all that destruction with half a face.
FUCK.
Is that manga that much more intense in general?
stupid fucking Akainu is still alive. I hope Luffy destroys him eventually.
I remember when we were reading that shit weekly in the manga thread. Holy shit man, the hype was off the charts.
Not particularly. There's a couple of trivial things and a touch more blood, but that's really the only notable change.
Also when the horse gets shot on Long Ring Long Island.
Oh yeah! I forgot that didn't happen in the anime. But that arc's pretty trivial in general.
Yea they seem to change certain things if they think it was just too violent, but not very often.
Thanks! and Straw Hat Theater shorts?
They also changed the fate of Zeff's leg. In the manga, he ate it. In the anime, he merely just cut it off when it got trapped so he could save Sanji.
They also changed this one scene in the Kuro arc where Jango throws a chakram at Nami as she wakes up Luffy. In the manga, the chakram hits Luffy in the back of the head (and he somehow survives it...) while in the anime he caught it in his teeth.
Oh and how Luffy got his face scar. Never shown.
I'm sure there's other moments where the violence is edited out. Those are just a few off the top of my head.

Wow, this doesn't happen in the anime?
Also, I remember reading somewhere that Sanji's former boss (the chef; Zeff or something) didn't eat his own leg in the anime. Not sure if true though.
He didn't. In the anime, it gets caught in an anchor chain and Zeff has to choose between taking the time to free his leg or getting to Sanji before he drowns.

illegal immigrants are stealing our air
Thats a very cool theory
I am 99% Don Flamingo is just going to eat it himself at the last second and then attack the straw hats using it.... its really his only wildcard in this whole plan
He can't do that though.
Zeus Molecules
illegal immigrants are stealing our air
why? he's not a devil fruit user already right?
We think he is already, his power is unknown though. Probably some kind of puppet thing though.
Zeus Molecules
illegal immigrants are stealing our air
ahhhh that would be cooler than my idea I got to admit that
It's been hinted at throughout his other appearances
Zeus Molecules

yeah like when he had the guy attack bellamy I remember that. I had just thought it was some sort of haki based power. but your right it has to be a DF power...
It's almost guaranteed that he has some sort of string/marrionette based power.
1) On Jaya, He controlled Bellamy and Sarquiss with his fingers, forcing them to fight each other.
2) When the Marines and Warlords met to discuss a crocodile replacement, Doflamingo controlled a marine with his fingers and forced him to fight others.
3) During the Marineford Arc, He used strings to cut off Oz Jr's leg and attack Gecko Moria.

In the video game One Piece: Unlimited Cruise, you can play as Doflamingo. His special power is the ability to mind control enemies and make them hurt themselves. His regular attacks are to simply attack with his feet. He never attacks anyone with his hands, or with any weapon equipped, in that game.
And like Wiseblade said too. It's pretty much a no-brainer to me that he has an ability to control others, making him a very dangerous foe. I wonder just how many he can control at once though.

Pirate Warriors is pretty fun if you enjoy Musou games (despite bad platforming sections).
Pirate Warriors 2 is looking to be great.

As said above Musou 1 is fun as a musou game, Unlimited Adventure for the Wii is pretty decent but I've only played like 5 minutes of it

There are plenty of good One Piece games, though many didn't make it over to the west. Unfortunately there are no "true" adventurous One Piece games. If you live in Europe or Japan, you can get Unlimited Cruise for Wii which I enjoyed quite a bunch. It's also on 3DS. Then there's Pirate Warriors for Playstation 3. The sequel, Pirate Warriors 2, is coming out in August. A new One Piece game is also coming to 3DS -- Unlimited Red or something along those lines.

Are we really this close to 600 episodes of OP? Holy cow
And we're only halfway...
I finally got back into the grove of watching more than 1 episode a day, I watched 8 episodes today lol, I'm on episode 300 but I will give my full impression of Enies Lobby after it's over.
P.S Got used to the Japanese dub now, I am very happy about that because now I can enjoy watching both dubs

You mean the ASL flashback? Part of the problem with that is the anime staff shoved in complete filler episode
