This doesn't have to do with anything and I'm still going through One Piece here slowly, I'm on the third fight between Luffy and Crocodile, but I was wondering, what if there was a Devil fruit called the Swim-Swim Fruit. What then?

There is in fact a Swim-swim fruit in the series and you'll know it when you see it. Keep reading.

Rigged Death Trap posted:Doflamingo kept dealing with Kaidou by secret and still kept his shichibukai-dom. That's my point. Doflamingo had to keep his affiliation with Kaido (and numerous other New World powers) in secret in order to preserve his government backing. Germa 66 doesn't seem to intend on hiding their relationship with Big Mom. dordreff posted:Yes, nations do tend to lose political power once they gain access to massive military power, it's true. Big Mom is making alliances to increase her political power and eventually overtake the other Emperors. Breaking the stalemate between them seems like the last thing the World Government wants, and I doubt they expect to be able to control Big Mom. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the Vinsmokes even comment on the fact that they'd likely lose their access to the Reverie due to the alliance?

Germa 66 doesn't seem to intend on hiding their relationship with Big Mom. Doflamingo's actions weren't really a secret, they just weren't front page news. He maintained his backing because he had blackmail material, not because the government thought he was on the up and up.

They said they would probably lose access to Reverie, although they didn't explicitly say that allying with Big Mom was the reason.

Is Double Issue like a tongue in cheek thing like Marvel's No-Prize or are they serious when they came up with the practice

I haven't even thought the anime is particularly bad or anything. I just like it enough to want to read the manga because I know it's the superior medium.

The anime is good, until you pass like the 200th episode mark and the pacing becomes absolutely glacial as they desperately stretch single chapters into full episodes.

Hikari E sung by Vic mongnia is the best saturday morning cartoon. They sadly do not bring back the English We Are for the send off before the Time Skip

Cloks posted:I've never understood the anime vs manga debate. The manga is the author's original vision, the manga is a product. A good anime adaptation is easier to binge through or at least easier to process than a manga. Of course a truly good anime adaptation isn't the most common thing and even with a fantastic adaptation there are advantages to both formats due to differing limitations of their respective mediums. mabels big day posted:I haven't even thought the anime is particularly bad or anything. I just like it enough to want to read the manga because I know it's the superior medium. You're still in the good part of the anime. The part where people generally even like the filler arcs tossed in. You've got another 2-2.5 arcs to go before you get slapped in the face with anime pacing disorder. Then it gets good/acceptable again for a couple more arcs. Then it becomes an ordeal to test your level of masochism. There are still those of unfathomable mental fortitude who are still anime only and waiting week to week for updates. Should we be struck with an invasion of Lovecraftian horror they shall be unfazed. Or they're already madder than a hatter.

I remember getting into One Piece by first watching whatever Funimation had dubbed and put up for free on their site; I think they were halfway into Skypiea at that point. Then I binged through whatever Kaizoku-Fansubs had finished, up to Impel Down. Then I continued on with the manga, and I've been up to date ever since. Eventually I went back and read through the manga proper, and I'm really glad I did. I think anyone that really likes One Piece should at the very least check out the biggest story beats and plot points animated, because they did an amazing job with a lot of them. Still pretty salty about what they did with the King Kong Gun scene, though. Totally mishandled.

I got into One Piece when someone brought in a shonen jump magazine to school one day and I thought an angry pirate clown with flying hands was neat. I remember the 3 magazines I read were Nami and Zoro escaping with caged Luffy, Zoro's fight with Capaji directly after Luffy blows up the bar, and the first chapters of Ussopp's intro. Coincidently none of these chapters showed Luffy using his power in any way, so I had no clue why they were calling Luffy a rubber and gumgum man all the time. It wasn't until I bought volume 1 that I figured it out.
