Robin's boob-window is kind of cringe-inducing, though.

That and the fact that both her and Nami's dresses are only barely able to cover their asses when standing, never mind doing literally anything else. I'm not sure what else to expect by now, but there's that.

I wonder how the Kintaro mythology costumes fit in with all of this (besides the "Gold" part). So far, it's got a casino mogul, beach swim wear, and mythology wardrobes.

Just from what little we know, it seems like it's going to be lame, but I will hopefully be proven wrong. Generic casino mogul is a more boring villain than rival of Gol D Roger with swords for legs or ex-Marine Admiral with a hand cannon for an arm. I'm hoping he's a gold-gold logia man with literal Midas Touch powers.

Yeah. Everything about One Piece GOLD is looking pretty grim so far. The anime is basically unawatchable at this point, so I had hoped the movie would be a fun time,...I guess it's still hard to tell, but nothing is looking promising.

Yeah, but that was just a cover (along with his hero persona) for his real plans as the head of Baroque Works. Crocodile was nowhere near generic and was totally awesome. This GOLD villain seems... generic.

I think there's immense potential to do something new and interesting in a shonen movie with a casino boss villain.

I also haven't seen any of the movies and don't really plan to change that so

I appreciated this comparison

On a related note, I'd say that One Piece GOLD looks less 'grim' as more 'textbook cookie cookie cutter' anime series film. Film Z kinda fell flat for me, pretty underwhelming; not bad, just not great.

I guess it just feels refreshing to see a OP movie that's straight-up honest about how superfluous it's going to be, just sit back and enjoy the ride. Movie 6 was like that and look how that one turned out

I have a really snobbish condition where I have a super hard time caring about anything that isn't canon in a story. Like I know that you're probably right about how fun those movies are but even if I sat down and tried to watch them my nose would be turned so far up I wouldn't be able to see the screen

Im the same way; can't get into the movies. It feels too wierd to watch a one piece arc in 90 mins rather than over a couple years.

drat shame for you boys, some of those movies are loving fantastic and rival the best arcs in One Piece.

Like, Baron Omatsuri is legitimately fine art. Tonally dark, visually unique One Piece is something I never thought I'd get to see in my lifetime.

I mean, there are stinkers, all shonen has bad movies. But it's not even like the better DBZ movies where at best it's a fun hour-long romp that probably doesn't fit into the canon due to timeline/powerup contradictions, there are One Piece movies that could easily stand on their own separate from the entire series. Some really good stuff out there.

That movie was also where the anime got the 'Luffy-punches-a-Celestial-in-Aha's-Take-On-Me-filter' super punch, only it was done way better on the big screen

That one is my favorite precisely because it channels alot of the best aspects of One Piece. Plus the fight with Gasparde on the ruined ship in the middle of a storm is just fantastic visually

Assuming Kaidou is the ruling Shogun of Wano, what are the chances Luffy/Law/the Samurai help start a samurai insurrection against Kaidou and begin a civil war similar to the historical Boshin war? Considering Wano is supposed to be ersatz feudal Japan, I wouldn't be surprised if Oda crams in as many historical Japan references as possible.

Kaidou's forces seem to be ersatz Vikings/Mongols as well, being incredibly war and pillage-driven and all.

Kaidou's declared that there will be no sharing of meat or parties with outsiders and Luffy's there to Commodore Perry that bullshit.
