Most of what I know about one piece comes from that game though, I don't follow the anime or manga on the other hand, if you do like musou games (or don't know whether or not you like them yet), it's pretty much the best one ever made imo and i'm a die-hard musou veteran Captain Invictus posted:A dude named super eyepatch wolf did a good breakdown of the appeal of one piece. my breakdown of the appeal of one piece: it's dbz with pirates and one day in college i got really fuckin blazed w my buddies and decided who was who in our one piece crew. im the gunner Fur20 fucked around with this message at 09:59 on May 23, 2017 |

^^^^ Counter point: The anime was really good up until right around the time skip where they changed how they made episodes but from the beginning to about Sabaody you have a really strong anime which also has one of my favorite dubs. Yes the art is inconsistent but I don't really care much. I'd rather a One Piece game that played like Anarchy Reigns or N:A than a Warriors game. I'm aware that the difference is pretty minor but it would make enough difference to keep me playing since I loving love that stupid anime so loving much and it makes me cry all the time because friendship is so god drat beautiful and important. But mostly I just want to rip through Enies Lobby like a bad rear end with fun gameplay and some actual platforming maybe. Unlimited World Red did not scratch this itch, sadly. And the combat was actually worse than Musou. SamuraiPaul fucked around with this message at 10:17 on May 23, 2017 |

Please don't watch the one piece anime. It was really good until they started to slow the pacing down to a screeching halt.The White Dragon posted:shokugeki no souma hooked me hard and now i'm waiting for season 3 Now I have to check that out. Thought it was a dumb show about food.

okay so i just got to the part where the guy with the accent i can't place (the video linked by invictus about one piece) tells me the heartbreaking backstory of a minor villain who dresses like a baby and i guess my question is, is one piece like the japanese version of a Vertigo comic crossed with Ambush Bug (or, maybe much more accurately, Dave Sims' excellent Cerberus) or do people just wish it was and/or talk as if it is? precision fucked around with this message at 10:24 on May 23, 2017 |

Oda might like women more than Dave Sim but that doesn't keep him from designing all his women as either strange Barbie dolls or horrific monstrosities.

Oda married an attractive lady and ever since then he has been removing ribs from his women and increasing their bust sizes Also, it's cool how you can play cross-game with that 3DS arc system one piece vs fighter against the 3DS arc system dragonball vs fighter so you can have luffy fight against yamcha (idk if yamcha is playable but he'd better be)

The first volume of Cerebus turned me off so much that I never went further. My brother told me that it gets incredible at church and state but I just never wanted to go back. I'll take Bone or Usagi Yojimbo over Cerebus even if it doesn't come close to the cerebral heights.

I just booted up The Pinball Arcade for the first time in ages, and it gave me an achievement for getting a high-score on a table that I don't own and have never played. The Pinball Arcade is a very well programmed videogame.

We can't all be diligent in making sure our Apple or Google products don't suddenly change the spellings of our favorite series or characters just as well as we don't always catch when they capitalize the names of products and services like YouTube

precision posted:okay so i just got to the part where the guy with the accent i can't place (the video linked by invictus about one piece) Franky is a shipwright cyborg powered by cola whose design was inspired by Ace Ventura, who doesn't believe in pants and gets extremely emotional towards touching backstories. He can breathe fire, shoot his fist like a grappling hook, and his personality is influenced by the flavor of soda you give him. Tony Tony Chopper is a reindeer who accidentally ate the Human-Human fruit, making him a Reindeer-Human, which caused him to be exiled by his herd for being a freak. He was adopted by a lovely hobo doctor who lived in a tree and after a really loving tragic backstory decided to take up doctoring. He developed a medicine that lets him transform into a variety of different attack/defense forms, manipulating the devil fruit's ability. Brooke is a gentlemanly skeleton swordsman musician with an afro who was killed along with his entire crew fifty years ago, but since he had eaten the Soul-Soul fruit, his soul came back to earth to come back to life a second time. He couldn't find his body in time though and it had turned into a skeleton by the time he did, so now he's a skeleton man instead of a normal man. He heals by drinking milk. He's also a big perv, but is gentlemanly about it. Capone "Gang" Bege is a mafia boss who ate the Fortress-Fortress fruit, his entire body is a fortress. His whole pirate crew lives inside him and can launch or shoot out of him to attack like some kind of horrifying advent calendar. He values family very highly but is very ready to backstab any allies he may have in the name of treasure. These are four characters of at least 800 named characters. Some may only show up for a panel, but there's hundreds that are recurring. The entire world of One Piece is interwoven so well, it doesn't always follow the Strawhats, it constantly updates on the state of the world as well, which helps in giving the series a much grander scope. It's worth noting that most of the biggest mysteries still have not been answered, like what Devil Fruits are, or what One Piece is, things introduced in the first chapter. But the focus is on the adventure, not the answers, so people don't mind not knowing until Oda's ready to tell us. Also, Oda realized his series was really long so he put the entire series online to read for free because he understands some people can't afford 80+ volumes(but asks that you buy it if you can afford them), he's a really cool guy. One Piece is good! bloodychill posted:I can't get past the Michael Jackson-meets-Pinocchio vibe the characters have going. precision posted:bone is fuckin' amazing It's so drat nice.

Yeah, the manga itself is a pretty fun action-adventure story, but the interconnectedness is what really elevates it. Like the fact that one character is given a backstory to justify why he dresses like a baby is just representative of the writing style, where Oda spends a lot of effort giving people motivations and tying the world together. The fact that he draws some really ugly people actually plays to his advantage, too, because his cast is so huge it becomes a good way to distinguish all of them. I eventually stopped reading it because I got bored, though, it's interesting but it just goes on and on and on.

The characters are all create-an-anime in the new one as far as I know. I signed up for the beta but I dunno if any EU invites have gone out yet, I snagged a US one from someone in adtrw discord.

The thing about NRS fighters is that you can sink a lot of time into just single player in between all the towers, dress-up and unlockables. I think I easily put 50+ hours into MKX before I even went online.

I am really enjoying Injustice 2 and I love dressing my characters in ridiculous cyberhelmets. There are a lot of awesome variants and a ton of accessories directly connected to a bunch of other obscure characters, if you know anything about comics that part's pretty cool. Superman alone has so many different versions of the s-shield. It is kind of a bummer that you have to spend real money to change the appearance of equipment but I am fine never doing that and being subject to the whims of video game fate.
