This is for the volume release, right?

Also this is very old school and I love it.

I assume so seeing as the anime still has a little ways to go before it’s even done with Wano

The Law? Law is a Human Institution.


I can't think of many Shounen manga that have the guts/clout to cut away from the main cast for months at a time and still keep me as engaged as it does.

I'd roll my eyes when Naruto would be on the 10th straight week in a row of Sasuke, but OP's world is so vibrant and interesting I don't mind taking a break from the strawhats to learn about the Quadrupal Jointed half-goat men on Coffee Creamer Island.

Devastated to discover that the four week hiatus only began when the next chapter was supposed to release, and not when the previous chapter released, so there’s still two whole weeks remaining.

Basically, yeah. But I think I might be a guy who wears full jedi robes. I may be able to convince myself that I like this show.

Yeah it's not exactly rare for a hardcore anime fan to hate a live action adaptation of it. Although do note the disclaimer in the second tweet about how he did contribute some lore guidance to the show (I think mainly just in terms of using his timelines and stuff).

How do you do, fellow Regis?
Yeah, early impressions are meaningless to anyone from any professional outlet. They won't be too negative because they won't want to be left out of similar future events. Library of Ohara might not be some massive website, but that guy could still get invited to other One Piece events for years to come, so he won't rock the boat and say the show is trash, even if that's what he feels.

Artur rules. If you’re itching for more one piece content his website is exhaustive in detailing the nuances of translation and explaining references. He will probably be the first person to guess the ending if he hasn’t yet.

Lol, one piece fans are the loving worst if that incited an argument in a voice actor character announcement post, just admit you wanna gently caress the giant ogre transman and that you’re probably a little gay.

Pretty sure there's a segment of Naruto fans who never accepted Haku being male, for similar reasons.

14, IIRC. To be fair, I think a lot of the people writing fanfics about female!Haku were themselves 14-year-old boys.

Indeed and one can almost guess the responses without look. "HACTUALLY you will see in the Vivre cards Oda-sensei listed Yamato as 'female' and furthermore-"

Sorry, but some of the arguments in the responses are so loving stupid that they are golden.

There's an entire thread of two idiots arguing that all instances of Yamato saying he's a dude are malicious mistranslations, and justify pirating anime. When the bath seen is presented as evidence, this is their response
https://twitter.com/Dariory1/status/1676315307634315266

Oda literally draws Yamato in the men's bath, and it's a lie of nefarious big localization. It must suck to be so insecure that a fictional character, with babs you like, identifying as a man sets you off.

in literally all but two instances yamato is referred to through male or masculine vernacular in the actual comic. gotta use he/him for an accurate translation.

Kaido literally calls him with masculine pronouns too. The villain of the arc is less transphobic than these "fans" lmao.

There's an entire scene where Yamato is bathing with Luffy and the male part of the crew!!!!!!!!!!!!!
