    Speaking of, does anybody really really like Helmeppo and Coby?

    You can relate with them much more easily than any of the Straw Hats, I think they need their own show.

    Oh hey thread is back again. And yeah, I like em; they both got a lot cooler after the joined the marines, especially Helmeppo. Goddamn he was annoying.

    Question, since I'm only up to Arabasta: are all the covers arcs, uh, covered in the anime? I wanna see Wapol's Omnivorous Hurrah animated.

    I like how they've been treated.

    As characters ?
    I think eventually Luffy and Coby will be in a situation like Garp and Roger. It began with Coby and Luffy( technically) I think it'll end with them.

    Nope. Only the first two. Apparently the audience would rather take subpar filler with Luffy than Oda-created storylines without.

    So I've already figured out that Franky and Bon clay have the same voice actor, but do any other One Piece characters share a voice actor? I'm really curious because..
    Sentoumaru, that fat guy/girl lookin person at Saboady that starts beatin up luffy. His/her voice sounds very similar to luffy's.

    So it looks like the spoilers which were fake aren't fake.

    Full details of the chapter, supposedly confirmed.
    The story starts out with Oars rampaging through the marines.
    He's about to break through their defence line.
    The giant marines say how they usually fight looking down, they've never fought looking UP
    They charge in to Oars Jr, but can't stop him.

    Oars breaks through their defences, and the pirates follow him into the bay
    The first pirates to break through charges at Hancock, but she turns them all into stone
    She attacks with Aroma Kicks (Nja didn't provide with furigana, so we don't know what the
    move is really called, Aroma Kick is from the kanji)
    And the stoned pirates shatter into pieces.
    However, some marines got caught in the fray and shattered as well.
    Marines are questioning if she's going to turn against them.
    Hancock replies, she agreed to fight Whitebeard, but you men are all still my enemies.
    Well, other than "that man". You have to realize that. Forgive me... for my beauty.
    Marines become lovelydovey

    The unstoppable Oars comes right next to Whitebeard
    Whitebeard advises him that bravery and wanting to die is a different thing.
    Oars Jr asks him (politely) to understand him, he just wants to save Ace as soon as possible

    Whitebeard orders his men to support Oars, but Oars takes focused fire by the marines due to his size
    Still he gets to the square where Ace is held, but Kuma attacks him with Ursa Shock, and Oars is badly damaged.
    He has a huge kasa on his back, but that falls onto the sea.
    Oars stairs at it, as the scene goes to flashback....

    Ace: Because you're closer to the sun, I'll give you this kasa!
    Ace's crew: Because he's fire, he burned this thing up twice while attempting to make it... take care of it!
    The kasa kept him from getting wet in rain, and stopped snow from gathering around him.

    Oars gets back on his feet, to save the gentle hearted Ace
    To at least take out one Shichibukai....
    He attacks DoFlamingo, but DoFlamingo casually dodges it, and flies up in the sky.
    He jumps to around Oars Jr's head, then cuts off his right leg. (with a powerful unseen string?)
    Oars falls down, but he tries to reach out to grab Ace
    Moria: Damn that bastard Doflamingo!! I told him I wanted his corpse, but he goes and cuts off his leg!!
    He creates a long spear made of shadow, and stabs Oars in the heart.

    The chapter ends as Oars Jr die.



    ....we have confirmed named-character death number 4, and lots of fodder characters actually dead too?

    Almost through the Arabasta Arc (I think).
    They just hit up Alubarna and got past Baroque Works with the bluff to get into the city. Folks are pairing off for fights and it looks like awesome shit is about to go down.

    Also, Sanji is all kinds of awesome with the Mr. Prince thing.

    They're well past that point. It has screwed them since most of the characters have resurfaceds

    The newest cover galleries will have episodes though so they are giving it another go.

    Well, given how much Oda’s set him up, I really hope there’s a giant battle with him (separate from the Whitebeard war) at some point. If he ends up as a casualty on the sidelines of the war I’ll feel shortchanged.

    Franky's a badass! If I hadn't known already he's going to join the strawhats, I WOULD HAVE GUESSED HE'D JOIN THE STRAWHATS. Seriously, seriously badass. I mean, singing? DANCING? GIANT AIR CANNON?

    I like how Nami was like: "but surely the technology for a cyborg cannot exist yet." she's always been a bit too smart for her own good.

    I saw Nico Robin being behind Iceburg's attempted murder, though. Saw that coming a while off. Looks like the Luffy crew's got a lot to do: Find CP9, whatever that is, and kick it's ass. Get Usopp back OR PERHAPS AN IMPROVED VRS WITH MASK AND CAPE?, get Franky on their side, and convince the crew they're innocent and survive that super duper high tide that's coming in.

    I love this show.

    For some reason, the fight which stands out in the anime for me (this is slightly after where Greeper is, so spoilers)
    Is the Bleuno fight.

    I think it's because it's the first time we get to see Gear Second, but that fight just stands out to be as being nifty for some reason

    Bleuno's ability also makes a lot more sense when you see it animated. It's really weird and creative when you think about it.
