I love this troll Greg. I seriously haven't been this entertained by such antics on this forum since Lobster and ODA-BOSS.
Volume 54 Discussion Thread (Cover is OUT)

Be careful of what you wish for, I suppose. Although Grek took it a bit on the extreme side.
Sadi-chan's outfit makes me cringe. It's too bright and pink and…pink, but I guess it represents her pretty well. Magellan looks awesome, Saldeath looks adorable, and the Blugoris are what a lot of people predicted to be, so I'm happy in overall.
And to think I'll be getting this volume in six months for Korean. -sigh- Can't wait.
-
Whoo, that's an awesome cover. Oda's choice of colors sometimes weirds me out (Sadi, Hannyabal) but Magellan looks awesome. I'd love to see a bigger pic of it (with good resolution)
-
i want this and all volumes to come!
-
Awesome! Hopefully we'll get this in the US within a year now =D
-
bah its disappointing that Magellan's outfit is black instead of green.

That kind of sarcasm could strip the paint off a barn.

@Vongola_Boss_XI:

hrm? We'll get it like a week after in comes out in Japan. Like… June 11th. If you're talking about an English publication, be ready to wait 6-8 years.

Hmmm no I don't mean the scans. I manage a One Piece group w/ 1500 members on Groupbox. We have all the manga for easy reading from chapter 1 all the way up to the current chapters. They're uploaded as soon as FH or Binktopia put out the scans. And currently Viz is 11 years behind w/ 3 volumes released per year. But check the Viz media topic. They announced that starting this fall current chapters will run in the US. They're skipping 33+ volumes, so there's a chance we'll get a volume rush like what they did w/ Naruto.
-
From what I see with hurting eyes cover posted by greg, I'd say the title of this volume is : Underwater Prison Impel Down
-
That kind of sarcasm could strip the paint off a barn.
What sarcasm? I'm totally serious, this is actual entertainment for me.

Lobster was an abortion in digital form, so much so that he was kicked out.

Lobster was an abortion in digital form, so much so that he was kicked out.
Which is why he was so funny. It was just so saaaad.
Back on topic, can anyone tell if Magellan's face stripes are colored or not? My eyesight is too bad to tell definitively.

-
Oh shit, my Sadi-chan was close exept for the shade of the hair and the cape. 3
Can't wait to see a bigger version of the cover :D
-
Just take a look at that:
I hope you are happy now!^^ Just like the last time, a Jump ad.
Now you can finally read the title! It is the one of chapter 524, "Nobody can stop this anymore"!!! -
Wohoohoo at least I got the title correct.^^
-
wow
a 3D like cover
luffy tries to get out from the manga lolol -
Nooo buttsex cover~~! Well, at least Sadi-chan looks good.
-
Cool, the Impel Down logo is even on the top.
-
Cool cover, it kinda looks like Impel Down's offical propaganda poster. "Free horns with enlistment"!

brennen, your avatar's name is Blue Fan. I believe Blue Wonder Flower in English.
More soon but had to get that out.
-
brennen, your avatar's name is Blue Fan. I believe Blue Wonder Flower in English.
LOL. That's awesome. Not the name, but that she was named in the volume. A pity I can no longer refer to her as "Super-Chibi Kuja". Unless that is her hero name to Chopper's "Chopperman"? You know what though, if it was because of an SBS I should get the credit. I have been promoting her all over the internet for months. I've seen my gif on different sites too. So if it was an SBS question, someone probably wrote about it because of my avatar. Yup…that's how it happened. I was there.
-
Neat that we get a name for the "Chopper-like" girl of the Kuja. Can't wait to hear more.
-
This SBS was amazing.
An SBS made me cry.
MADE ME CRY.
And as fate would have it Thursday is my busiest day and I have no time to do it justice but I'll do what I can.
And oh yeah.
CCC, congratulations.
You're in the Gallery.
-
Greg, you fucking tease.

I am abbreviating the shit out of these so I'm sorry.
Someone wants to know why Luffy reacted to Nami but not Boa.
He goes into a huge roundabout explanation but ultimately decides that it's because he was with Usopp who being the same age and all was a bad influence on him. It's not that he isn't interested, just that he doesn't act like that alone.
Someone asked why Luffy doesn't think about his options or express his psychological motivations ie. talk via thought bubbles.
Oda said he decided from the start he didn't want him to be like that and the one exception was Skypiea because that kind of expression was the same as a 'voice'. Remember the deal about the 'voice' of the bell.
Some asks if Wanze is a Yonkou.
He brushes it off.
Someone asks why Marigold got fat.
He says it isn't fat, it's muscle. To get stronger. She ate lots of chanko like sumo do.
From the left to right, the first 5 are Kuja Pirate Crew Members:
Ran, Rindou, Daisy, Cosmos, Blue Fan
Memo Freak: Nerine
Doctor: Belladonna
Lady's Maid: Enishida
Someone notes that Buggy was on the newspaper Nyon was reading.
Oda says yes indeed it's him. He describes the article's contents:
Thinking it was a cave containing Captain John's treasure, Buggy entered what he thought was a cave but was really A MARINE FORT and got captured.
R: Oda Sensei, hello. This is the first time I'm writing a letter to you. I always enjoy reading. And I really mean it. In Vol. 53's SBS you said, "I'm gettin' to the point where I'd like to finish off OP.", so I was quick to pick up my brush. Please, don't say that kind of thing. Please don't say things like, "Sorry to make you spend your money." I know it's the SBS and all but I have no question.
O: NO QUESTION!!…that aside, I was shocked at the mountain of letters and postcards I received regarding that comment from 53! Uh, first off, I had in my mind 'The Ideal Serial Manga Length', that is to say, 'The Extent That All Readers Can Purchase All Volumes'. It's a desire of one who writes the story but say for example we now have the SH Pirate Crew with its 9 members. At the start it was just Luffy setting out to sea alone right!? That's something that readers who jumped in along the way just don't know. The adventures they've been through, the growing crew, I want them to know all about it but I can't just tell everyone to buy all 50 volumes. I know that little kids don't just have money! That's why in the past I've tried different things like the collection books [Logs] so they could know it all and now, the companies Caramel Mama and Hearty Ware have helped me realized that dream of 'as cheap as possible'. It's too cheap!! 'Cuz it's free!! NICE FIGHT!!
We've created, "One Piece Web".It's a 'perfect story guide'. It explains the entire story. For the kids who can't afford all the books, go on and read it for free! Access it! (You adults out there buy the books.) Anyway, because I worry about that stuff is why I just let that comment slip out, I'm sorry. I have not lost my motivation yet. There's ONE thing I've wanted to do from the very start. To bring various threads together and show you "The Manga Where The Final Chapter [meaning 'section of'] Is The Most Amazing". In the grand story of One Piece we are but in the middle. If you have the time, please, stick around. I'm still striving to make a story the likes of which no one has ever read before. Now visit that site!

Someone notices that Boa was on the cover of Jump many years ago. (the one from CW)
He says that while some parts may have changed, that was indeed Boa. He says it was when they entered GL and he was asked by the editing dept. to draw some enemies that would be appearing from here on. He agreed and drew their backs. He says that even though it's a bit different, at the time he fully intended her to be Boa Hancock of the Shichibukai.
Someone asks about the CP9 members with Spandein and if the dude with glasses was Calipha's dad or not.
He says yes it is. And this wasn't some spur of the moment bullshit answer. He explained to his chief at the time that it was indeed her dad and that's the only person he told. He says most of CP9 are orphans raised by the govt. but he thought it would be interesting if there were kind of 'thoroughbred' members amongst them. Hence Calpiha.
Someone asks Oda to explain the original Fata Morgana. He does. Nothing surprising.
Hancock's Bday- Sep. 2nd
Shanks' Bday- Mar. 9th
Someone asks Oda to put a retarded looking face in Brook's head along with the dial. Brook agrees. Oda disagrees.
I have full confidence it will appear someday when we least expect it.
That's it for the Oda SBS.
Sorry I can't deal with the big comment now. I'm already late for work.
God I love this series.
-
Huh, the story of Buggy's capture was underwhelming, but I guess it makes sense since his crew was left alone.
So the purple-haired woman was indeed Hancock after all. That's cool. Wonder if her backstory was changed along the way though, since that design was more of an upperclass rich woman than a jungle warrior empress.
Wonder when/if we'll see the guy with the rifle and parka.
-
I take that back, I love you Greg.
-
Sweet SBS info, thanks for the translation, Greg!
-
Wow thanks Greg, thats awesome. This is the first i've heard about the cover with Hancock on it! Anyone have a link to a pic?
-
LOL Thanks Greg!
Finally the hottest bitch in One piece has got her name! BLUE FAN! :wub:
Now I can get her name tattooed on my lower back, that's how hot she is!
And wow at the Boa Hancock foreshadowing and Kalifa's dad!!! O_O@weeble:
here's the pic of the first version of Boa Hancock
[hide] [/hide]
Anyone has a pic of Kalifa's dad? -
This post is deleted!
-
is the comment your sand art

What's the pic about Absolam about?

LOL Thanks Greg!

Anyone has a pic of Kalifa's dad?I wonder, could this mean that the other people, shown on the same page as her, will be used in the story at some point? Interesting. Also I'm glad Oda explained how Buggy got caught.

As I walked into school my co-worker told me our first period class together was cancelled.
So here I go.

Ehem.I am very happy.
And thank you, Greg, for informing me. Can't wait to pick up the volume when it arrives at my Kinokuniya... -
Holy shit, that's fucking awesome. What a great guy Oda is.
-
Congrats, CCC, and awesome SBS, Oda.
CCC, what did you send in anyway?
And thanks, Greg, for telling us what it said.
-
I love Oda more than any other man in the world.
-
I know there have been people from Chile and China and Korea and shit but I believe you're the first American CCC. What an honor.
-
Hell yeah! Somebody did it!
Congrats CCC!
And I'd like to know what you asked, aswell!BTW checked out the site mentioned in the SBS and that's what I call freaking nice.
Just take a look at this

I don't get a single word of Japanese but it's still a lot of fun to watch
(and listen to, the music is just superb). -
@Dirt Monkey:
I sent in pictures of all my latest stuff (Kizaru, Kidd, Moria, Locations, Luffy Faces, etc.)@Greg:
I was sure to use a Japanese pen-name, and in the little letter that I included I wrote in the simplest Japanese possible so as not to make any dumb errors (and I typed it… so they wouldn't be able to tell from my whiteboy-handwriting). So... I might have actually fooled them.Or do you mean the first person with an American address?
