mushroom_spore posted:I'm pretty sure this was a joke, and that the only times that Brook has been shown to *actually* be healed by milk were anime-only filler scenes written by people who didn't realize that it was a joke. Sure, but he has to be able to heal somehow, and milk makes perfect One-Piece-world-sense.

The problem is that normal guy Ussop with normal stuff just cant cut it in the crazy New World. So Oda invited wacky plant things to use in his tactics.

Shadow0 posted:Are they seriously not saving the training for flashbacks in later episodes when they reveal their moves? Because that's what I was imagining would end up happening. How far ahead is the manga? Its getting into the final battle of the very next arc. It was shorter than Fishman island.

cooldude2.0 posted:After the 10th shot of the room I laughed a little at how silly it was getting. After the 20th it started to get real old. The whole scene made the strawhats look like assholes, and the giant baby doesn't make any goddamn sense. Did they even read the manga before animating this? I dont know how someone could watch 5 minutes of COME BACK AND SAVE US CAME BACK COME ON GUYS COME BACK PLEASE ARE YOU STILL THERE? COME BACK FOR US OKAY? REALLY? and not be bored out of your mind.

The Divine Orator posted:In what I think is a sign of a worrying trend, the cp9 powerset being used like a generic movepool is extremely dull, geppu (that's the air step right?) looks incredibly stupid on both Momonga and the longarm guy. You must have missed it where every Vice Admiral at Marineford used rokushiki. This isnt new.

Sekkira posted:Maybe the higher levels of antagonists (Blackbeard and Akainu. I don't really see Kizaru being up there because he seems to have a more laid back attitude) will be beaten not by Luffy punching them into the ground, but a group effort from the crew, especially as the show emphasises on the whole nakama thing. Theres also the problem of Kizaru's ability being so incredibly powerful that he really shouldn't lose to many people without some sort of plot shenanigans. I wouldnt be surprised if he never gets a real fight against the crew.

AlternateNu posted:I need recommendations for the most badass story arcs. I was one of those people who watched the first dozen or so episodes years ago when it first came out but dropped it because "meh...not Naruto". And, I don't feel like slogging through all multi-hundred episodes. I already have a basic understanding of all the main characters just through general anime fandom exposure and watching the intro arc, but where should I go from here? Marineford is definitely not a good adaption. Dude fuckin' with Nami would be the Arlong Arc in the 15-20s I think, which is where I think it really takes off.

Spidder posted:Hopefully the anime folks will take advantage of this, fill in those gaps and come up with something watchable for their filler, as opposed to everything moving in slow motion and dragging out every gag. Shadow0 posted:I really hope so because I feel like I'm about to hate Sanji even more. Dont get your hopes up because they've had the chance to do that stuff since Marineford and havent done anything but long still shots and stretching out scenes to their breaking point in order to fill an episode with a single chapter. Its been years people, just accept that this is what the show is and will be for quite some time. KoB fucked around with this message at 21:05 on Feb 10, 2014 |

Spidder posted:True, they had their chance, but I think this time around the story is written in such a way that they can't not do it the proper way. It might be just me but I think Oda has been taking the anime into account, and written an arc that, unless they do some proper filler scenes instead of their usual poo poo, will feel really weird and disjointed in TV format compared to a comic, where it works just fine. Sort of like forcing them to do it right. This exact same argument has come up for Punk Hazard and Fishman Island too. Every arc people go "this arc is perfect for filling in the gaps, dont worry." I was one of those people. They have no incentive to do anything different than what they've been doing.

Shadow0 posted:So I'm guessing in the manga, they still haven't done flashbacks to the characters' training arcs? They weren't posed with some impossible situation and had to think back on their training and have a few chapters of what they had done on their islands? No. But the big fights are only just about to begin, so who knows. KoB fucked around with this message at 18:15 on Feb 11, 2014 |

Zark the Damned posted:OK cool, guess they just didn't bother animating it. Or maybe it'll be in a future episode. We've still got like at least 8 fights to resolve before Luffy and Law take on Doffy anyway (so what 50 episodes before the arc ends?). If you watched the new OP, theres a Law flashback as well. I think the anime is typically around 1 year behind the manga, and like he said above its not done yet.

Zark the Damned posted:I'd thought that the anime was catching up to the manga and they needed to slow it down, hence the amount of padding and recaps and general slow pacing currently. Is that not the case? Its padded out to be 1 chapter per episode, it wont ever catch up.
