Just finished Dressrosa on my re-read. Good arc! I wish the strings of the birdcage could be cut but immediately reattach themselves. Also the solution to Luffy breaking free from Doffy's strings being "he just does" is bad. Should have encountered him earlier ala Crocodile and had to work out a solution between encounters.

The Birdcage is such a cool concept when they were raiding Drake's dad's mansion, but it's such a contrivance in Dressrosa. It should've been inverted, where Doffy just surrounded him and Luffy in it as a timer. Fujitora would've offered to cut the string, but Zoro would stop him because that's not what Luffy wants. But I'm also not the most successful manga author of all time, so maybe not.

As for Gear 4, Boundman is ehhhh, but Snakeman is the coolest poo poo. I don't really count Tankman, mainly cause the Cracker fight is also whatever.

Sucks that Mr 3 and friends have backstabbed our boy Buggy, but soon they'll be begging for forgiveness, clowns always get the last laugh.

Well it's pretty obvious who will cure Luffy's incurable disease that Roger died from.

That's right, Law.

According to the wiki Buggy is 39 and Caesar is 40.

That means Buggy is a scientific genius, his brother worked for THE Vegapunk!

The cover page showing Katakuri and Oven duking it out, each hallucinating the other as an enemy was also extremely cool.

Wild chap, nice to catch up on everyone before we get to the new island, maybe next week is a Vivi chapter.

Buggy will become the Pirate King, therefore he will go to Laugh Tale, so if Mihawk wants to find Zoro then all he needs to do is follow Buggy. Oda's doing it again!

While the Gorosei think Sabo is unlucky I think Im chose that random island with vague context because they knew Sabo would be there, two birds with one large UFO kinda stone. Whether it's a fruit power or a alien power or whatever, we'll have to see.

Does One Pace still keep the awful flashback of Hody and pals being captured by humans therefore ruining the entire message of the arc?

I look forward to the new One Piece chapter every second of my life, but that run from Water 7 to Marineford is the best the manga has ever been. I have a very hard time putting it down if I get around to rereading it.

It's impressive how long Oda was able to keep the wheels of Wano going for, all the way back from Punk Hazard, and while he didn't completely stick the landing, it was a great arc and I'm glad we've got a brand new, fresh story ready and waiting.

Crosspeice

I do love Dressrosa, but it's really long, but drat is has some great characters, but the bird cage is so stupid, but what a great entry into the scale the world is gonna be from now on.

Punk Hazard would be better if it hadn't been mostly cold half and clinical research facility. I think Oda wanted a drawing break after Fishman Island lol. I think they spent like 3 chapters on the hot side?

Ussop: Wait a second! In his last fight Mister Surgeon here couldn't stand up to Doffy. Now here he is fighting Big Mom. In her second form!

drat this is great, if they keep this up, I get to read the chapter spoilers, the bad translation, the good translation and the official release. Hopefully one day there's a variation on a new chapter for every day of the week.

It seems Oda has made the decision to not focus on Law's crew, or even Kid's, outside of Killer.

So far Law's crew seemingly spent most of the timeskip on Zou while Law was on Punk Hazard. They weren't allowed by the minks to fight Jack and then were stuck in the submarine when Onigashima rose up. This did let them save Luffy but after riding up on Momo there wasn't really any time in the raid to do anything.

I think it's nice that Law wants to travel with a bunch of weaklings cause they're friends. But it does mean he's a little hosed.

I will always stand by Dressrosa being an amazing arc.

Just not all at once.

Crosspeice

I will separate Water 7 and Enies Lobby because it's a different island. Also because I like Water 7 more.

I also like the setup of Wano more than the execution in Onigashima, but I believe Oda doesn't always stick the landing with everything he sets up. Gets very close though.

Oh my God if we somehow get an extended cover story arc or something of Law stuck with Garp temporarily as they escape the Blackbeard pirates, realizing that Luffy's apple didn't fall all that far from the tree.

Coby literally strapped to Law's head to help carry him around.

Garp: You're not gonna kill this brat, he's gonna join the Marines!
Law: Like hell I am!!!

With how the entire BB crew has been spread out to carry out whatever plan he's got, it wouldn't surprise me if there was already some of his crew on Elbaf and they were planning on meeting up after BB was finished with whoever he encountered.

Make no mistake, the anime looks really pretty now and a lot of effort goes into the cool fight scenes. But it's still awful and not worth watching week to week.

When they actually show us footage and how the show will handle the many, many issues present in live action anime, then we can quickly figure out how long it'll last.

Shame that Kidd went down like a bitch, but I do like the events that took place, Shanks going from "haha, these guys sure want a fight- OH poo poo KIDD WHAT ARE YOU DOING???" is a good reason why Kidd lost immediately.

Can't wait for his third fight to avenge losing his other arm.

Luffy vs Garp in Marineford is one of the best fights in the series, he was very well handled, and it's great to see him go all out for something he believes in for Coby.
