>people hype up Wano claiming the anime was going to be better
>it actually is
well you fooled me 25 times before but proved me wrong now, hopefully it last for more than a few episodes.

man the lines and animation of this last episode was fucking great, movie quality

You better post the new praline by drawanon or else

It's okay to nerf robin's boobs a little, Toei were the ones who ridiculously inflated them to begin with. Fuck the fujo fanservice though, this is an episode I'm skipping

Imagine if a girl had Gladius's DF and made her tits expand.

Just how much more expensive this kind of animation is? This kind of makes me want to pick up the anime again but I have a bad feeling that they're going to run out of money and go back to their usual shitty animation.

Remember when this series was good?

And they only needed to draw with their feet for the last 3+ years to prepare.

Budget isn't that important. What really matters is giving good animators enough time.

Yeah I remember Skypeia

What's his endgame?

Not more expensive at all. It's simply thicker line art. See , the frame is still considered the "character drawn small in background" or "inbetween frame" level of (shit) QUALITY, but Toei found out a trick to make it look much nicer. Also see and .

But they have to produce an episode each week like always right?

That scene had a very loose definition of "capture", usually it's just Kaido drunkenly flying into an enemy island or marine base and passing out.

Yeah but you won't have all the same staff on every episode
So really budget is important for how many bodies you can throw at the problem, but you still need proper scheduling

this looks like dogshit why are people praising toei

I don't think there's ever been an arc with more than two openings. But Wano might get three if it goes well over 100 chapters

probably 2

Three

Three, most likely.

when did you last drop the anime? I stopped watching it at greenbit

dressrosa

Never. I'd sooner drop the manga.

I started watching about a year and a half ago, got up to when Sanji was introduced and then started over reading the manga instead

I remember antecipating dressrosa back then because it was supposed to be one of the prettiest islands in the world but the anime menaged to look even worse than it was in punk hazard
fookin hell

Is it me or is Franky's VA sounding off? I really hope he's doing all right, he's not even that old.

Great to see Toei have got the right formula to animating One Piece
It's really fit the theme of One Piece being "Bright Adventure"

Dressrosa was the last straw (heh), but I was already 10-second skipping at fishman arc.

Though I watched the Doffy fight and most of WCI with the One Pace edit, which makes the anime FAR more watchable than any animation improvement.

wtf toei you cunts this is too far

Based aninators just don't want to spoil animeonlys about the existence of the lurking legend

Opening had enough problems, didn't need to add in another.

Before I go watch the new episode, I need to ask an important question:
I am well aware that they have improved the art and animation, but did they fix the slow pacing or not?

I hope toko is extra genki in the anime

>Show Law's crew
>Dont show the minks, Carrot or Big Mom
Interesting, the fuck was going on in Luffy vs Kaido the camera was all over the place

They added filler that explained how Zoro got arrested. So yes and no

They knew not to spoil important stuff like Toko, so they replaced her scene with irrelevant shit like her dad being crucified.

it will never be fixed, because one piece is just a history that does not work in small doses, funny enough it works better looking at the full picture, as you could say one piece

What was spoiled from the manga?

same pacing as WCI so if you didnt enjoy that that you wont enjoy this

This, it was so pointless everyone laughed but Zoro, but he's a buzz kill so who cares.

GODA

>last 8 pages of 909+Last 2 pages of 910 w/ filler in between
The pacing is still shitty but the episode was pretty, so I'll forgive it

Yeah they really dodged a bullet there. If they put in the scene of Toko eating Sanji's soba then I would've dropped One Piece altogether

I once told a Carrotfag that they shouldn't ecpect too much from Carrot in Wano because the important Minks like Neko and Inu would get all the attention, and that even Bepo would be more relevant. He didn't want to believe, I tried to warn him.

Pass, then. Thanks. Will stick to the manga and only movies for the anime.

That's not a "problem" to fix for them.

That opening was amazing. Finally no disgusting fi outfits, no retarted scenes of strawhats in the sunny. Now if they only could add an ending so the episodes are shorter that would be awesome

>30 seconds too short
>30 seconds of luffy vs. kaido filler
>the part where you just see random moments from the episode even though you're about to see them anyway

can't say I'm too happy with this senpai

I want to hear Toko's actual laugh so bad, now

For this episode in particular, they added some natural feeling filler that worked well (showed Zoro's arrest, showed Usopp peddling). But in general they can't fix the pacing, you can't consistently stretch a chapter into an episode.

I love them!

You're doing it the wrong way around.

Too much going on to feature everyone. The OP is also missing:
>Hyogoro
>Drake
>Page One
>Carrot
>Kamazou
>O-Lin/BM Pirates (though this is kind of obvious as to why it isn't in it)
>any of the prison's staff

In fact, the OP Is pretty generic for Wano as a whole in general, outside of some shit that won't age well like Speed and Holdem before the Calamities, focus on Luffy/Zoro/Tama. The video screams Act 1 actually, if you look at it from that perspective. I wish they'd update it periodically for different acts outside the main parts, but I really doubt it.
I really don't understand the cut 30 seconds.

we still don't know his hair color, thanks toei

It used to have a good enough pacing back then. Having ED helped (yes, even if it was only 1 minute and 30 seconds).

one piece is a relique of the past, when shounen wasn't allowed to have seasons and breaks in between, it is the last one of its kind, naruto, bleach and fairy tail all suffered the same thing, once one piece ends this model will be extinct

Carrot being missing is a net positive

If by some reason Kyoshiro ends up not being Denjiro this opening will be really awkward.

Isn't Black Clover airing without breaks too?

They barely did. Most of the changes were just adding scenes from the episode, which this one already does.

Well I mean it was pretty obvious

Yes and how is that bad? It still is better than random generic starwhats moment in the sunny or the starwhats fighting the admirals for whatever reason lmao

Based beyond existence, god fucking damn. Thank you.

>you can't consistently stretch a chapter into an episode.
It really depends. This arc was a whole going on at the same time, and Oda has purposefully left a lot only alluded to to speed things up, specifically saying that the anime can go into more detail. Fights in particular, should be longer.

I mean it's not like Kawamatsu is shown with them so it's not officially meant to represent all the Scabbards together (even though theorists will have a field day with it)

When is Crocodile coming back? Why no Wani in Wano? He was given a samurai-themed look in a color spread that made me think he'd turn up here.

I didn't say it was bad, retard.
He's there, along Kin'emon and Kiku.

I gotta wonder if fans of either are gonna riot if One Piece or Conan were to become a seasonal anime.

Why the fuck would Carrot be in the opening? She does fuck all in Wano.

I can see him striking down Orochi but still gonna fight Zoro anyway.

dressrosa is really not that bad in fact it is great if you read it as a whole

Doffy didn't live up to his potential and it would be a understatement to say he overstayed his welcome.

Because she's a relevant character still, and she is in Wano. Fucking Gyukimaru is in it, the scene selection feels really weird.

Sadly, WCI was a retrieval arc that just so happened to be connected to a yonko and it had 78 chapters and that last chase/kata battle was 30 chapters long. Because Big Mom didn't lose there and, of course she wouldn't, Oda needs to to combine two yonkos losing here unless he plans on having them revisit WCI which I doubt.

Its why I feel miffed that we're gonna be stuck in this prison for awhile as they need to step up so much shit to accommodate a roster that is even larger than Dressora which was huge.

Wanted to drop it right after time skip but kept watching for my mom since it's one of the few things we ever did together. In the middle of Dressrosa it got too much then. The amount of stills was unbearable. Too bad manga quality too took a dive after DS.

Only watched the recent episodes with Im-sama hoping to find some clues confirming it's a she.

It is, but most people are lazy and don't want to change their first impressions. The initial impression a fanbase has with an arc will stick forever these days.

>Kaido looks 11-12 m tall in the opening
Oh nonononon mangakeks the heart of the franchise has spoken. Kaido's manlet status has been revoked

God damn I had no idea the drawfriend did that much work. Wherever he went, I wish we had a blog or something to follow the rest of his work, I love the style so much.

It's a weekly manga. If it's a slog in to read in its original format, then it's a shitty ass arc. Any weekly story-telling, whether it's a manga or television has the obligation to make its audience feel "Can't wait to see what happens next week" instead of "I hope this arc fucking ends already".

I thought Doffy and his family came across as pretty menacing.

Especially his executives, my god they were so lame!

I don't want to have to accept that this could be even longer than Dressrosa, but these things always get out of hand, and shonen authors never know how to pull back. It's probably happening.

>didn't live up to his potential
>complains that he was the antagonist of a big saga which showcased his backstory and abilities in full

Sounds like you just didn't get what you wanted according to your headcanon and are upset about it.

How could he possibly live up to his potential? As a character he's just too big to work as a side boss before Kaido but having him operate independently like Crocodile wouldn't work with the time left.

One piece is too big of a franchise to concern itself with cliff hangers, Oda knows this

>If it's a slog in to read in its original format, then it's a shitty ass arc.
That's retarded, the "original format" means jackshit, would you rather Oda just waited until he had enough content for a volume? Most story arcs are paced so that a volume has enough content, the weekly publishing is a lot less important than the tankoubons, and they do it because of tradition and to keep people hooked.
>weekly story-telling, whether it's a manga or television has the obligation to make its audience feel
Bruh, this is sad, you should stop before people come laugh at you...

I will give Oda props for making me cry over that horrible baby man's backstory.

Having both of them fall here is more efficient storytelling. They gain some powerful allies in Wano, and being involved in the downfall of Big Mom will give them Straw Hats more clout among the giants going into elbaf.

What if I told you that most of the target audience does not read it weekly, and the author has taken that into account?

Good thing that whether or not something is a "slog" is subjective because I greatly enjoyed reading it weekly.

Dressrosa started as a normal arc, with a bit more storylines than usual, and it spiraled into the 100 chapter behemot it is. WCI had as many plot lines, but the objectives were less definitive, so it could be shorter, yet it was still almost 80 chapters long, without even having 1 v 1 fights like Dressrosa.

Wano has like double the plotlines in those arcs, and many of the things that have been set up haven't even come into play. We've barely even seen Kaidou's crew, we are still in act 2 out of 5, and this arc can't have an inconclussive ending like WCI did. In fact, it has more to close since Big Mom is there too.

>Big Mom will never put your soul in her panties

>Bruh, this is sad
But it's literally the main objective of a weekly TV show and/or manga. You gotta keep audience/readership hooked to tune in every week so ratings don't drop.

Luffy won't be welcome into elbaf i'm sure otherwise it would be boring. The outcome of wano will look as if bm and luffy were wroking together so they giants will hate luffy and then enter hajrudin maybe

Do I have to remind every you faggots every single time that Doffy lost because he fought a 2v1? it was luffy vs doffy, it was Luffy and Law vs Doffy, Law had blown Doffy's FUCKING ORGANS before he even fought luffy

Dressrosa
I couldn't enjoy it at all once I noticed how many times the reused the same reaction shots every episode

I read it in a few weeks and it was pretty exhausting. It should have been 50 chapters

see We Are, Brand New World, Fight Together and Hope are also up there. Over The Top has potential, but it's too early to tell.

I like that one a lot but I also jerked off to the music video so that might be coloring my perception.

>denjiro=kyoushiro
I'm still not sure about this one, I think he wouldve been identified as one of the scabbards. The fact that Hiyori/Komurasaki survived his attack is the most suspect thing about him so it won't be a huge deal if it's really him.

I'd agree, but I sort of expect Elbaf to be where he will finally meet Shanks face to face again. If that is where the last road poneglyph is it would be fitting.

>skipping the best animated episode in a decade because of your fragile masculinity
Do you eat shit too?

>It should have been 50 chapters
How would that even work? You'd have to cut entire plotlines, and they can't just leave the story altogether. At most he could have rushed through the Fleet's fights so that it took 10-15 chapters less (I don't think that much is possible), but that isn't significant.

There's no way this could happen without everything being rushed to hell and back and nothing having any emotional impact whatsoever.

Wano is spread over 2 weeks and counting so the anime has a lot of time to use filler
Dressrosa was 100 chapters and took place in roughly 8 hours, Toei couldn't do much but drag it out

I love that song, and I fucking love the shots used especially once the song gets serious with its chorus and Aokiji appears.

The OP literally shows a sequence of the 8 known scabbards plus Kyoshiro.

How is that wrong? You're saying a serialized work's main purpose is to not make its audience hooked for the next episode/chapter?

it is fucking insane to think that dressrosa began at the sunrise and ended about 3 hours after lunch

To be fair, Oda could've empathised it more, instead we got a scene where he fixed his organs. Besides, Luffy was fighting in the arena against a guy with CoC before and then got beat up by fucking Bellamy.

Though what the hell was up with birdcage, was it really too strong for an admiral and Zoro? Power levels kinda went to shit after TS.

Of course not. The main purpose is to entertain the reader. Do you not read a lot of manga or what? Endless cliffhangers are a crutch bad story tellers use.

I love Shōchi no suke

Cut the tontatta, Rebecca and her pals, toys, and birdcage. That's a good start

There was no emotional impact anyway

I'm partial to Kaze wo Sagashite.

We Go is shit, should be at least below Super Powers.

Rebecca was actually pretty interesting before the whole princess bullshit.

the only thing that should be cut from dressrosa was Pica resetting the fight

Is there any doubt that Kyoshiro == Denjiro at this point? Dude acts as a retainer for Hiyiori in pretty much all scenarios.

Let's be real here, shonen time lasts for as long as it has to. Fights in Hajime no Ippo will make 3 minutes rounds feel like an eternity with inner monologuing for example.

Underrated and gets too much flak for being "too comforting" when the song sets up the second half of itself to compliment the more serious, dark tone stuff but at the same time keep One Piece's spirit like when the song goes YAY with the Impel down guards and then finalizing with everyone facing each other down at Marineford and lastly Luffy and gang falling down to them.

Sure, who doesn't like a 16-year-old exhibitionist gladiator

Well said.

The toys are essential to Doflamingo controlling Dressrosa, Luffy fucking things to the point were Doflamingo has to start the Birdcage, and Kyros' story, as well as Usopp becoming well known as something else than Sogeking and boosting Luffy's popularity so that he can get supporters for the fleet.

"Rebecca and her pals" are the heart of the arc. Removing her would be like removing Vivi in Alabasta, Nami in Arlong Park, Robin in Enies Lobby, etc, which makes absolutely no sense. Her story may not have been executed very well, but the arc wouldn't work without her, there's a reason she was so prevalent.

Without the Birdcage the arc wouldn't have had a conflict beyond Luffy fighting Doffy, on an inhabitted city. How would all the fights develop over a city that's lived in? Every arc separates things so people aren't living where the fights ocurr, but without Doffy outright choosing to attack his people, you need something else. And the Birdcage is just what we got, a similar plot device would have been used regardless. Oda wasn't just going to have a Davy Back Fight and end Doffy's saga with lower stakes than fucking Fishman Island.

We Go was excellent... for the reunion and maybe like the first half of Fishman Island. It definitely stuck around for far too long, though, and eventually that shot of Hody glaring ominously at the viewer just became a constant reminder of how utterly Toei botched the landing of that arc by seemingly refusing to accept that the New Fishman Pirates were never on Luffy's level and were specifically there to demonstrate how much stronger he and the other Straw Hats had gotten.

...Of course, for anyone watching the simulcast it was even worse, since Hands Up didn't get put on Crunchyroll until way later, thus extending what was already the most overused opening for another year.

But as time has gone on and I've gotten some distance from it's infuriating overuse, I can acknowledge that We Go was, indeed, excellent.

>for anyone watching the simulcast it was even worse, since Hands Up didn't get put on Crunchyroll until way later, thus extending what was already the most overused opening for another year.
I remember that shit, I literally waited longer for fansubs to come out so I didn't have to listen to We Go.

I still think it's overrated. It was hyped as the next coming of We Are, and it was far from that. We were coming out of a long string of fantastic OPs (Share the World, Kaze wo Sagashite, One Day and Fight Together were all amazing), and We Go just went down a whole lot.

Characterfags? Pretty cringe
Now, pirate crew-fags on the other hand...they’re kind of basically the ultimate chads

Obviously it would require the arc to change dramatically, but it didn't really need to be Alabasta 2. It was just another stopping point on the way to Wano where the real conflict lies. All it needed was the colosseum plot and ruining Doffy's trade and it would have been a fun arc on a cool island instead of the huge mess it ended up being

I watched a video once that gave me a different perspective on it. Essentially Dressrosa was meant to be a microcosm of how things work in the new world. Every major player had their hands in the pot there in some way.

Croc will come back for the final war when he gets to use Pluton to help Luffy

I'd love to see that. I'm wondering about his secret and inevitable backstory, though.

USSOP NO MANE

>tontatta
Their botanist skills were key to planting the SMILE fruits, which are relevant even now. And Leo and the Tonta Corps are part of Luffy's Fleet now. Can't be cut.

>Rebecca and her pals
If you're referring to the Riku Family, then what, is your idea that Doffy just rules over a random island with nobody in it? Their relationships among one another, and how Doflamingo manipulated them into regaining the throne that they "took" from his ancestors was important for establishing the setting in which the arc took place, as well as creating a tragedy which has to be overcome.

>Toys
You mean the group of people that Doffy amassed for a decade that helped him run his underground weapons trade? Nah. Plus the whole concept of these people being erased from history created some of the most poignant tragedy in the arc (Scarlett dying in Kyros' arms without even remembering who he is). I get that the last part is subjective but it's a moment of pathos nonetheless that really set the stage for how everyone in this country was just being manipulated ever since Doffy took power

>birdcage
I'm sure half of your complaints are just powerlevel nitpicks which would be a waste of time to argue against, but my point of view is that Doffy has honed his Devil Fruit for years (a plot point addressed in the story itself with him being Awakened) so he can manage to pull things off with string that you wouldn't think from just hearing the name of the fruit alone. Hell, would you imagine that someone with the powers of the "String String Fruit" would be able to control people like puppets n the first place just from hearing the name? It's such a goofy argument when there are plenty of other Devil Fruits in the series that have a plethora of versatile uses and abilities that are essentially crucial to the story progressing the way it does. Its ultimate purpose was to instill fear, suppress and subdue the people threatening his head.

> didn't really need to be Alabasta 2
And it wasn't any more than superficially.
> just another stopping point on the way to Wano where the real conflict lies
Law's entire plan didn't even involve reaching Wano, he was after Doffy the entire time. The arc has a lot of plotlines that aren't part of Wano. Sure, it was building up to Wano, but it was also doing its own thing while building up a lot of other stuff.
> the colosseum plot and ruining Doffy's trade
Doffy is a big villain, and he'd been presented as such from his introduction, being one of the highest frozen bounties in the Shichibukai, and easily breezing through his fights in Marineford. How would that be a short thing anyways? The arc was that, plus setting up stuff that has been extremely important for the New World's overarching story.

This, getting to the experience the Sabo/Koala and Gear 4 reveals as they happened was hype as fuck. I hoping Wano tops even that.

>God, that would be based.

Whoa, hold on bro--Did you just post cringe?

I think basically all of the Kitadani-sung openings are the best in the series, and Over the Top is no exception.

We Can, however, is an exception, but he was working with some other group of musicians for that one, so I blame them for it not being that great.

Yeah I like parts of it as always but as a whole it didn't really work well

I'm not gonna read that wall of text lmao, I already explained that it would have to be a very different arc if you wanted to cut it in half

Sabo/Koala when the spoilers dropped was amazing. I remember the translations were confused and many people were thinking that Koala was actually Sabo turned Okama.

crocodiles are aquatic. you can't turn into an aquatic animal. it defeats the purpose of the devil fruit

It would be better if Oda draws an entire arc, reviews it, and then publishes it after editing it so we can read the whole arc at once instead of waiting for this trickle piss droplet ass arc

I'm still dying to see Vivi's reaction to discovering that Luffy and Croco are bros now.

>I already explained that it would have to be a very different arc if you wanted to cut it in half
Sure, but you completely failed to address how you'd begin handling all the stuff that would be missing from it.

It just sounds like you disliked it, but don't want to state it as an opinion. Which is why your arguments have no base, and you just make broad statements about what to remove, without dealing with the consequences.

Easy fix for you. Just act like that's what he does, and check every two years to see if he's finished an arc.

Glad to see other likeminded anons here. Sometimes you get an idea of a consensus when it really isn't the 100% truth.

I also really liked once the Donquixote Family started dropping like flies. Seeing side-characters who weren't Straw Hats get that type of focus was cool as fuck and wasn't something I was fully expecting.

I'm thinking Iva will die at some point (from Im-sama maybe directly attacking the Revos since they're up in her crib) and the effects of his fruit will wear off, reverting Croc to his original state.

Dobon.

>Their botanist skills were key to planting the SMILE fruits, which are relevant even now.
And ties back to Norland being a botantist and possibly him releasing DFs back into the ocean 400 years ago.

But then I’d have to wait even more

>She's literally the reason they are there to begin with.
Which could've been easy adjusted. Crocodile knew they knew his name after Vivi told them and hence wanted them dead already. Kill Vivi and let Nico Robin manipulate the events for them to end up in Alabasta. Most of the journey there was Luffy doing what he wanted or dealing with consequences of doing what he wanted. Vivi's only contribution was bitching, crying and guessing where the bomb was.

I don't think "Croc used to be a girl!!!!" is a compelling or interesting plot point worth foreshadowing potentially decades in advance. I think it's got to be something else. How androgynous he looked as a kid makes that an even more pointless twist.

Hope > Over The Top > We Go > Hard Knock Days > We Can > Super Powers > Hands Up > Wake Up

Namie Amuro can't be beat, Fight Together was the best opening pre-timeskip too. The bottom three are all equally bad for me, but Wake Up has that cringey cut to Blackbeard and Luffy for no reason. I love Blackbeard, it's just weird to have that in a Dressrosa opening.

Probably because I'm fucking tired because I'm an autist who stayed up all night to watch a new children's cartoon opening and am now phoneposting from bed

It’s Oda, do you expect any less

Why do you even enjoy One Piece? That would remove the entire emotional aspect of the arc, and remove the personal stakes of Luffy vs Crocodile.

He just casually let us see Crocodile as a child and Crocodile as a woman in the SBS. He wouldn't make a story out of something he shared in advance on reader request.

It stopped being about Vivi towards the end with Luffy aiming to succeed where Crocodile failed

>I'm not gonna read that wall of text lmao

Was just trying to address the things that you said could be cut, and how doing so would affect the execution of the story Oda was trying to tell and continuing to tell to this day.

I don't really give a shit if you don't like the arc and me trying to force you to like it would be retarded, but if you're going to make claims about what you would do differently then people who don't agree will probably have strong feelings about why that wouldn't work.

I really hope that Wano has something similar to the Dressrosa final fight in it. WCI was great, but I did miss a big confrontation of separate fights. Instead, we just got Luffy fighting Cracker, and then Katakuri, with everything else being minor skirmishes.

Though I'm getting scared, since Kaidou's crew is barely getting developed.

>Vivi's only contribution was bitching, crying and guessing where the bomb was.
Her suffering was exquisite and I consider her invaluable for that.

Maybe, and then it's an arc without any personal stakes, until the very end. Outstanding storytelling, you should write your own story.

Dude I'm so tired I have no idea what you are trying to say, can you cut that in half or so? Thanks in advance

Of course you'd have to wait, you are complaining about not having to.

Y'know, I'm no SJW or nothing, but why is Vivi is pale as she is? I mean Alabasta is like Arabia/Egypt yeah? Why ain't she a caramel/bronze/milk chocolate honey. We don't get a lot of those types of cuties in OP.

>He wouldn't make a story out of something he shared in advance on reader request.
I'm pretty sure he's done that several times. Like the other two candidates for Admirals showing up first in the SBS and then being the canon story post-timeskip. Or revealing that Blackbeard would be an archeologist if he wasn't a pirate and that his hobby is studying history, stuff that hasn't been revealed in the manga yet.

I think all of the Scabbards will end up getting key moments to shine via the war on Onigashima, whether it be through solo or group battles. Oda has been hyping them up too much for them not to get their big action moments to shine.

Though I will say it's weird that four of the Flying Six still have yet to be seen. Aside from the All Stars they're the most important powerhouses of Kaido's crew and will be the big hurdles to overcome in the war. I really hoe they get shown off soon.

Then explain Smiley

Character designs and alternate histories/personal interests aren't spoilers in the sense that a secret original form would be. I could be wrong, and I just want to find out at this point, but I might just die of natural causes before Oda covers it anyway.

All I'm really trying to say is that disliking an arc or story is one thing but making claims about how it could be fixed is another. And people will probably want to debate you on that. That's about it.

Robin was the second in command of Baroque Works and Vivi was still cool when she found out about it, pretty sure the papers reported on all the major players of Marineford anyway. And in spite of how simple Luffy is, he seems to draw a clear distinction between allies and friends, he would've slapped Croc's shit again during Marineford if he had to.

The arc is still pretty far from an ending, so there's time to introduce more of the stronger crewmembers. Apoo hasn't even appeared.

I doubt every single one will have a solo battle, that's way too much. I really wonder how big things will be, assuming the Fleet and Jinbe arrives. But on the Wano side, I doubt more than the Scabbards will participate in the big fights for the good guys' side.

The only emotion I felt towards Vivi was annoyance. Specially in the anime.

Kouzas dad being happy over a bit water had emotional impact, Crocodile fucking him over would've been enough stakes and reasons for Luffy. Nico Robin had a stronger moment after the fight than all of Vivi's scenes (sans maybe the farewell, that was cool) Besides the whole story of a framed king was just fine. And there was the whole Marine shit when Smoker and Tashigi learned just how fucking corrupt the organisation is. The arc would be fine as fuck without her.

It's the most useless zoan, worse than SMILES

Robin never treated Vivi as shit and generally acted very distant. There was no personal beef.

>thinking supernovas beyond Bonny and Law matter
Holy kek.

My headcanon is that all of the All Stars and Kaido himself will be group fights befitting of their size and being practically monsters. Similar to Oars but with higher stakes.

Luffy and the Supernovas vs Kaido, and Inu and Neko rematching with Jack are fights that I think are inevitable, though I could be proven wrong if any upcoming story events prove me otherwise.

And the person Vivi thought Robin "killed" was quite alive and healthy and her dad obviously told her that she was not actually a bad person as well.

He will be really disappointed when he finds out that Kaido is a real dragon and he can't steal his power then

How can one man be so based? How did the cherry pie man come this far? I think about his first appearance all the time. I wish I had a dream or a goal. I'm just surviving.

It maybe useless for humans but granting human intelligence to a animal is useful for said animal.

That's okay, he can go after the other mythical yellow dragon of the 5 guardians.

why do you hate Zoro

Human fruit gives intelligence and removes the ability to swim
Axalotl fruit gives the ability to be a walking fish but you can't go in water

If it lets the user breath underwater that'd be something but you'd be better off being able to swim

Urouge is from an island that Enel destroyed and recently was hanging out with Kaido, on a sky island held up by balloons ( a ref to Enel's coverstory)
Bege's story is pretty much done I agree
Kidd, Killer, Hawkins, Drake, Law and Apoo will obviously be big players in the current arc

>follow OP since Java
>still has no goal
What the fuck, user.

He's basically Luffy but up the pirating ten-fold. Unlike Luffy who grows in influence due to his charisma, Blackbeard grows due to slimy, underhanded tactics. Makes me hype once we get to endgame and the series goes full-on pirate in tone to properly represent him.

>In Japan, the Blue-green Dragon is one of the four guardian spirits of cities and is said to protect the city of Kyoto on the east. The west is protected by the White Tiger, the north is protected by the Black Tortoise, the south is protected by the Vermilion Bird, and the center is protected by the Yellow Dragon.
Oh right Oda is probably using this as the basis for Kaido's Azure Dragon.

Bege will join Luffys fleet to bring him down, since he's the next most powerful figure

I've never been moved to develop one. Nothing matters to me.

Urouge seems to be used for exposition. To remind us of the sky island shit since the moons might play a role, and for the Kaido intro.

Kid/Killer will probably get a bit back story and dropped soon. They just don't offer too much and Killer himself was fooderized by Zoro. Hawkins and Apoo just look like they are there to add to the numbers too.

And well, obviously Law will play a role due his fruit. Drake has the marine backstory and was on the same island during the Corazon shit, so guess I forgot him. But doubt any of these sans Law will be relevant after Wano is done.

Checkers is the smarter style of planning. Adaptability is the key to success. The more complex a plan is, the more likely it is to come crashing down around you.

>including Alpacaman, the lurking legend, in the intro

They wouldn't spoil THAT much of the story

That's clearly done well for him. Fucker is the reason Haki had to be invented.

Madilloman and Daifugo as well

Opening is kinda shit, isn't it? I mean, the song is comfy, I give them that. But the visuals have little to no idea behind themselves, it's basically show as many charcters as possible one after the other (if possible, in the most spoilerific manner by the way). It doesn't even mesh with the song well.

Fishmen can swim

>it doesn't always seem like it's part of his keikaku
Impel Down and Marinford actually went much better than he planned

>Urouge seems to be used for exposition
Literally every One Piece character is used for that

Openings 6 and 12 both have shown events happening outside their run. Though they were kinda special cases.

The mousemans SMILE

Not if they ate DFs.
I forget how Drecken was able to move underwater but Jack couldn't.

He would've been fucking dead in Impel Down if Shiryu didn't save his ass. That's really the most brilliant thing about Blackbeard; he's the big bad of the series and yet he's as reckless and dimwitted (in some aspects) as Luffy is, and will regularly get his ass in sticky situations. Really makes his rise to power over the course of the series more satisfying and befitting of Luffy's biggest rival for the One Piece.

Not many cute girls around this time around, so they will use anyone they can get.

But it's ALL the guy got so far. His actions had zero impact on the story.

Yeah that’s why I said OR
Would you rather get a random DF OR have fishman heritage

Hard to predict as the number of episodes opening "covers" is far from constant. But I think people generally expect Wano to last 140 chapters at least, which translates to 170+ episodes. So three seems like the minimum.

At least Toei got to choose the colors for Speed. If it were up to Oda it'd be light orange and dark green or some shit.

He weakened Totlands defences enough for Luffy to get away

>we still have to do Elbaf
I just want to see the endgame already
Doesn't Oda want to do other things

Toko is all I need

The truth is, with Oda's current output, you should expect an average of 12-13 pages per episode. There's simply no way around it.

Elbaf can be a short arc like Zou/Amazon Lily.

Elbaf will most likely be 30 - 40 chapters long at most. 10 - 15 chapters for Shanks vs. Luffy.

Faggot. Who'd reject free power? You'll just get stepped on by the first mountain bandits that come by to rape you.

The only valid reason is to hold off so you don't get a shitty low tier fruit. Like Zoan.

stop spreading lies

There is a lot of stuff to cover, Wano is full of little details. They might manage to skip freeze frames and same reactions every few seconds.

It's how Oda keeps him from going crazy. Oda says he tries to keep Luffy on a leash because of how headstrong he is. We saw what happened when he was left to his own devices during Alabasta and just recently in Wano.

Why would Shanks "vs." Luffy ever be a thing? There's absolutely no reason for them to hurt each other.

They'll probably do the same thing they did with Pirate Warriors 1 and 3, and give the game its own original ending in Wano.

Almost everyone in OP who isn't a fishman or special giant has the same skin tone, Oda just doesn't care. I don't remember anything else than Ms. Monday being black (though there are probably some more examples, but still very few). Anime tried to play with it a bit more, hence half SHs having darker shades, but that too was changed post-TS.

Luffy said he's taking out all the emperors and that he's going to get a crew stronger than Shanks', which Shanks is eager to see.

Does Shanks even count as an emperor? Why? He's literally a regular dude.

This series would never end if Wano wasn't longer than Dressrosa.

Usopp and Robin looked way better with their darker skin tones. Usopp would even be African in the real world, so this is ridiculous.

It may be that Shanks can’t go to Raftel without a D.’s help no matter what, in which case once he got there his attitude may change. Overall though ya it’s unlikely they’d have any reasons to seriously fight.

I always forget that not everyone has decent knowledge of the series, then posts like this remind me.

He was going to kill Luffy (states this intent to Ace), not capture him, in contrast with Ace who he wanted to recruit and only captured despite his OP DF. Oda saved Luffy with the knockup stream.

Like dart frogs, Magellan hardcounters 99% of the cast just by being poisonous. Blackbeard probably sucked it all up and got rekt Miroku style.

True but to be fair Teach didn't ask for anything, well, ever it seems. Of course he didn't want infamy or position of power intentionally to keep a low profile and Thatch had no idea what fruit it was and he could have easily made an excuse for that one.

What if Thatch took a bite just before Blackbeard could ask him not to?

Could be an interesting twist to his backstory if Thatch was being a dick for the sake of it.

I'm falling into depression

I mean, we've yet to see a single giant with a DF, right? Fucking imagine.

>Decent haki should be able to protect against it
That's not how poison works.

Ya that’s why he will get another power up soon, so that he is clearly stronger than the others.

There's an unprecedented amount of plot lines going on here and the story has been building up to Wano for close to a decade. It's going to be long as fuck

Pre TS Luffy didn't do too badly with just wax armor. Why shouldn't haki be able to work against the stronger tier?

Will this finally end for fucks sake?!?

Imagine the New World without the Wano plot line.

God I hope if Luffy tries to use moral arguments against him or anyone one that crew/combine fleet he smacks them with that and a plethora of other things.

When did Luffy even give a shit about that?

Magellan was so venomous that the air around him made you sneeze.

P-please step on my chastity cage mistress Whore Queen

>Luffy tries to use moral arguments against him
>>>/naruto/, my boy Luffy don't play like that

I'm still upset about this.

Nigger haki = Skin isn't actually protected from poison.
Force haki = Protection, but must be constantly maintained as the environment gets saturated with poison. No defense against gas like the Chloro Ball.

>AHHHH BRO PLEASE HELP ME HE'S GOT ME I CAN'T FUCKING MOVE HE'S CRUSHING MY FACE WHITEOBEADO-SAMAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOO

How is this spoiling Kyoshiro=Denjiro? Explain.

It doesn't matter. There's a hippo zoan, and they're just as aquatic as crocs.

He's shown with the other 8 scabbards

Cory in the House at a party I'm at

He has a small dick

Where? All I see in the picture is Shutenmaro and Kyoshiro.

I'd say breathing+swimming underwater is probably better than most Zoans and Paramecias. The best DFs are the exceptional ones... but for every logia there's twenty variants of dog zoan, for every ancient zoan there's twenty Swim Swim fruits or whatever.

OK so hold the fuck on. The fat guy is equal to the dog guy, but the fat guy managed to overwhelm Jack while the dog guy AND cat guy couldn't fucking touch him.

Either Jack's mammoth form is retardedly strong or PLs are BS

So did the One Piece anime get a new director or animation team or something?

Watch the opening. They show all eight fast like that and Kyoshiro is just hanging there with them

>A-At least I can swim! H-Hahaha!

Shanks is on the Jews side. Or maybe he'll pretend to be on the jews side so Luffy can beat him and get stronger

To be fair to Jack, he started clashing with Ashura after that. Also Inu and Neko were essentially tied with Jack and Jack himself couldn't subdue the minks without resorting to using the gas bomb. They're all around the same level of strength.

why is her forehead so big

how can one man be so absolutely based?

i'm talking about skypeia, not sabondy archipelago

so ashura is stronger than zoro? Not seeing it dude

Shutenmaru and Jack barely fought for a little while and he got the first hit in when Jack wasn't fully on guard. I won't cry "power level" bullshit just yet but so far Neko/Inu/Ashura/Jack should be close to each other, with Jack having retard endurance.

A bigger target for black men, fish-men and men possessed with big cyborg cocks to dump their loads onto. Same reason why Robin's heavy milkers, phat pawg ass and wide-open mature holes exist

This was the first episode in a long time that I didn't need to skip through.

>Luffy... Truth is I could've gotten One Piece whenever I wanted, but I don't want the jews to have it. You don't even know about the jews, do you? Shh, don't ask... Just kill me, take it for yourself, and do not talk to anyone offering you a loan.

It's not an amazing fruit unless you're absurdly tanky. If Blackbeard showed him the DF book and explained how it worked, Thatch well might've given it to him (perhaps he gets dibs on the next fruit?)

Thatch already ate it

how can a man have boobs this big?

what a boring episode

>man

no

It’s true that he takes all the hits but it’s also true that black holes are super high density.
Whitebeard’s bisento split the sky but only cut Teach skin deep.

>Not showing the buggy scar
Repeat after me. Shit animation.

It's just not a very good fruit anymore. Who cares if you cancel out Big Mom or Kaido's DFs? They're still unstoppable monsters even without them. And Shanks doesn't even have a fruit.

I mean you can smack around someone like Crocodile without resorting to water, but oh wait; there's Haki.

After some point it stops being dedication and become just lazyness and incompetence.

Did the opening really just spoil the most of acts 1-2

completly flat character

OKIKU

The opening didn't touch part 2 all that much, Part 1 however

Wrong

>Orochi
>King and Queen
>Sanji's raid suit
>Yasu execution
I guess the prison plotline and Big Mom is still mostly unspoiled.

O-Soba Mask and Yasuie's execution were Part 2.

It has the potential to suck in a fucking city. And if BB creates some sort of tentacles around him, they should be able to suck in most attacks. That sphere of gravity he used against Ace would probably BTFO most fighters.

fucking retard

>It has the potential to suck in a fucking city
So? most top-tiers have city if not island level attacks.

reminder that ryuma was recently revealed as a Shimotsuki

cancelling devil fruits is a really strong ability. It becomes even stronger when you remember that Blackbeard still has multiple fruits.

Citation needed.

cute

>Jack fags

>Zoro causing problems because he promised Ryuma he wouldn't tell anyone about fighting his corpse
I doubt anyone who wasn't on Thrillar bark would believe him anyway

doffy was great, his beating was just anticlimactic
law should've beaten him honestly, it would've had much more emotional impact

Luffy also got his dick jerked by amazon women who later admired his balls

>Where the heck did you get that number?
We made a poll on that once.
>Oda tends to keep things transitioning around 100 chapter marks
It's far from a hard rule. EL ended after 440, PH that kicked off the giant saga we're in and that marked the start of the New World started on chapter 655.

Also, compare where we are in Wano right now to where we were in Dressrosa after 40 chapters. In Dressrosa at this point, Sugar was about to be defeated (setting up the running portion of the arc and the finale), half the strawhats fucked off and we only had two somewhat important characters left to introduce (Kanjuuro, Manshelly). In Wano we're still a week from attack on Onigashima, Neko and Jinbe still didn't arrive, we don't know 4 out of 6 of Kaido's second tiers, Apoo wasn't seen yet. Not to mention all the other stuff we can't really place anywhere at this point (Tenguyama's ally, Kuri thief, Denjiro, Kyoushiro, Gyuukimaru). I don't think a final battle with Kaido will start by the time of the chapter 1000.

i hate both

i love both

The problem with him post people had was switching from "I won't underestimate SHs" and skillfully neutralizing 3 out of 4 powerhouses he was facing to becoming generic retarded evil lord. Power level was the least important thing about him and underestimating them more than Crocodile did (feat later achieved by Katauri too, but he was at least funny while doing so).

So carrot is a cheerleader 99.9% of the time and is a floating taser for 5 minutes every full moon?

BD's are going to look sick

He actually went back on his word while fighting Gyuk. Predictably, he didn't believe.

>BD's
?

fun fact about kawamatsu: he's probably a puffer fishman/mink hybrid since puffers are the only species of fish that can accumulate poison from bacteria-ridden shit they eat inside their bodies.

so expect him to become a BIG GUY .

Sure is one lazy niggar.

This is the dumbest post I've read in this thread tonight. Congratulations.

jesus user

Puffer fishman x what kind of mink mink?

Does Luffy even know who Gold Roger was? That he was the Pirate King?

>This is the dumbest post I've read in this thread tonight. Congratulations.
Wait until you read this:

He does, its just that he doesn't seem to care about the person himself unless it peaks his interest of it relating to whatever part of the adventure he's partaking. He clearly didn't ask Rayleigh about him because he's not interested in who he was, what he did, how he was like, who he mowed down to get to Raftel, nothing.

Did you miss Loguetown?

The fuck are you reading you mongoloid
