is it terrible for me to think of the Popeye theme song for the last minuet where luffy was getting revitalized.

-
Not really. I had that song going through my head when he first used Gear 3.
Really digging Ivankovs voice.
-
I still giggled in my head when Ivankov said "…and you were enemies with the Straw Hat in Alabasta?" because almost half the people in that shot (okay, just Robin) are either currently in the crew or Luffy's
! ally in some form or another.
O-chan
BTW, if someone could screencap that shot it would be cool.
!
I would use it as my wallpaper, but I'll wait for a better quality raw
-
It was pretty cool homage to use that shot in the episode, IMO.
Great, emotional episode. The VAs, as usual, did a tremendously good job with this one. Also liking the non censorship on New Kama Land or Ivan's abilities.
So starting next week, the "second half" of the Impel Down arc really gets underway. I'm curious as to how many things will be handled.
-

That is amazing wallpaper material, just have to wait patiently for a high def raw to appear.
-
I don't know about Horm-Horm fruit, it doesn't seem right. I hope they changed it to something like Mojo-Mojo fruit, lol. Well, anyway, it was a great episode. Can't wait for Luffy next week.

Does anybody happen to know how to adjust the buffer limit (preferably to get rid of it all together) on Adobe Flash for Funi's website? My bandwidth isn't up to the task of streaming the episode faster than it can play. I can pause it to let it get ahead, but it only loads so much at a time before it stops buffering. It's quite annoying.

I think its supposed to be like that, probably a feature they made so that they dont get over-run by the people using it is what im guessing. Ive got the same thing as well, gets annoying if my connection isnt perfect at the time i want to watch the newest episode.
-
Yeah, I tried changing the amount of cache firefox has to no avail. It's something they are doing on their side, it keeps downloading as you're watching it though. But if you don't have enough bw to stream it, it takes you to where you started. If you pause it though, it only goes so much, so I see your point. I did find this though:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/learning_guide/video/part02.html#streaming
Doesn't say much in hindsight though. It really looks like the limitation is on Funi's streaming server or whatever doohickey they are using.
-
It's most likely a security measure to keep the whole episode from being physically in the memory cache at once. I just wish they'd let you have more than just a couple minutes of the episode at a time.

walks in

Funimation block anyone who doesn't live in the USA or Canada.
But that isn't the site you usually get sent too. -
none i live in Saudi Arabia :(
damn funimation
i can use proxy but sure reduce my net speed
thanks anyway -
I know it's early but I'm already anxious about next week's episode– only to see what color they make Luffy's vest. Manga covers say yellow, but this opening says blue, and those who color manga pages (like myself) seem to vary between the two for Marineford. Plus we know from past experience that Tooi(/Oda?) likes to change colors on us. coughkumacough
Also I WILL feel stupid if my question has already been answered in the preview, which, thanks to Funimation, I cannot see (downloading lately has been too much of a bother to me). But I don't care to sit though a whole streaming subbed episode to see it either, since my internet speed has been ghastly lately. If it has been seen by anyone, an answer to my stupid question would be greatly appreciated ^^.

On the FujiTV website, where you can watch the preview, Luffy wears the yellow vest. And what a vest. :wub:
-
Damn. Too bad, I like the blue-ness.. And people were JUST recognizing my blue/teal cosplay vest to be from Impel down. sigh Time to go to the fabric store!! XP Although I must say, yellow/red is still a better combination than safety-orange/red. F*CK you Thriller Bark, I will never cosplay that.
-
HD Raw's out, and since people wanted an HD version of the volume cover scene, I took it upon myself to screenshot it. Just one problem….
!
! >! FUCK -
You mean there wasn't a SINGLE Frame where that advisory wasn't there?
Wow…
-
Chopper's lower body sure does look weird in that picture…

! >! FUCKAt first glance, I thought that was snot coming out of Luffy's nose. And then I realized it was Japan. I feel bad now. Also I don't see any of those warning colors on the country at all… that's odd since they're obviously there for a reason..
But yeaah, that sucks. XP Although I like the way the bg looks watercolor-y like the spread(s). Nice. Chopper looks a little taller, though, they made his shirt really long. (EDIT: ah, Mikey, you beat me to it, lol)
-

Wow…
Same thing happened with the recent FMA.
-
Except for the Japan by Luffy, I think that would have been a pretty wicked cover to either Voyage 5 or 6 of the Funi Season 2 DVD.
Anywho…I've been watching the episodes on the site subbed and they are WAY ahead of where I am in the story but I honestly don't feel too lost. Am loving Impel Down, though I was wondering...is Crocodile coming back soon?
-
-
Lol, Japan really does have a funny shape…
-
Absolutely fantastic episode this week. And next week is where shit really starts to fly.
-
Good episode, was paced fine and the animation/art was not the best but nothing too bad (Dragon wasn't that big of a deal imo).
I also liked how they played the second half of "Can't Escape Fight", haha they haven't played it much since the Baratie Arc.
Guys, this episode ONLY covered Chapter 539, there was nothing from 540 here so now we are back to 1 episode=1 whole chapter instead of half of 2 chapters.
-
Watched this week's and last week's episodes. I had to have sat through at least 12 verizon commercials. I already have verizon. What else could they possibly want me to buy from them now???
-

Seriously? I haven't gotten any ads for months now. :wassat:
-
^ Me neither, before tonight I had no ads for like a month or two.
-
Hmm…only real complaint (and it's not even a dreadfully big one, either) is the use of '[Luffy's] dad' over '[Luffy's] daddy', as I do believe I hear the word 'tôchan' being used.
-
I've been getting a lot of ads. Getting real sick of em. But oh well. The episode was still worth it.
-
I stopped getting ads a while ago. I don't even get them when I watch stuff like Brotherhood on the actual site. I wonder why? I guess FUNi has finally realized that I am great. No? Oh…
~~Got it memorized?
-
Hint for those complaining about ads: Firefox + adblock plus. It solved my problem before I even had it.

Yeah, I hadn't gotten frequent ads for a long time (I don't use adblock since I want to support Funi). The weeks I had gotten ads I got them once at the very beginning at that was it, which seemed fine.
This week they stuck the same ad in no less than 5 times. Sticking them in where commercial breaks don't even occur in Japan is frustrating, and will make me start blocking them if it's a continuing trend.

Call me stupid but I didn't even consider the fact it supports Funi. I use adblock normally and never thought to disable it for Funi out of courtesy… I'll start doing so next week and hope it's not too frustrating.
-
I understand wanting to support FUNi, but every time I watch it there are ads at:
The beginning - Right after the Recap - Between the Eyecatches - in the middle of the second half of the ep
That's at least 4. I wouldn't have a problem with that if it weren't for the fact that, it's the exact same ad every time. I mean, after the first one or two, I think I've gotten that Verizon wireless is now apparently also Big Red Gum. It's fine, I don't really have a big enough problem with it to raise any ire, it's just a tad annoying. They should either decrease the amount of times the ad plays, or get a couple of sponsors so there's a little variety.
-
They do have multiple commercials. I watched the episode twice and got a different commercial spammed at me for each viewing. They have multiple sponsors, as well (I know I've seen McDonald's commercials and such). It shouldn't be so hard to code it to give us different commercials, but they're either too lazy, unable, don't realize, or some other excuse I haven't thought of.
The biggest thing that bothers me is the timing. If they wanted to show me two commercials during the scheduled commercial break, I'd be fine with that. But for them to interrupt the middle of a spoken sentence to show me a guy watching youtube on his phone while riding a horse is just dumb. They could at least bother to time it properly.

I remember a miserable time in my life when my internet was crap(ier) and I always had to start the video over and ended up seeing the same ad 20 times, which often entailed a beautiful Christmas carol for Verizon over and over again.
Ah yes, those were the days I love to forget.
This was before they got their buffering straightened out. :sad:
-
I can't remember if it was on a FUNimation site or not, but I remember getting this ad that said, "Get what you want, when you want it. Like getting back to your show, now." Then it told you to click the big yellow button. Unfortunately, the big yellow button only worked on the original site or something, because clicking it did absolutely nothing…
~~Got it memorized?

So Ivankov thinks that Ace is Dragon's son? I wonder what his reaction'll be once he finds out that
! Ace is Gold Roger's son…

Any guesses if Crocodile will be in next episode or the one after? I know he's supposed to be showing up soon…
-
Seriously? I haven't gotten any ads for months now. :wassat:
I noticed at school, on my mac, I was getting ads constantly until the last time I watched, and on my laptop I haven't been getting any ads..
-
@PirateHunter345:

Definitely the next episode.
-
I'm guessing we'll see the awesome adventure of Buggy and 3 continue on Level 3 next week, so that they are on Level 2 the week after, just in time for their manga reappearance.
-
This episode returned to ending in the same spot as a manga chapter.
So hopefully if they keep that trend we'll see Crocodile at the end of the next episode.
-
So it's official, Luffy's new vest color is yellow. Wonder if they'll upgrade the opening again?
O-chan
-
I just looked up the preview for 402 on YouTube, and I didn't see any hint of Crocodile in it. :sad: What interested me is that it showed Ace fighting some jailers, which wasn't in the manga. I'm okay with that, since (if I recall correctly) Magellan says something like, "Stop your feeble resistance," to Ace around this time in the manga. Maybe it's just one of those things that actually happened but weren't put in the manga, like Usopp's duel with Daddy Masterson in Loguetown.
What bugs me, though, is reading the YouTube comments, although some are so stupid it's funny…
You all retards… Stop reading the fucking manga... Ace is fighting back because he cares about Luffy not himself. Just stop reading the manga... Enjoy the anime.
I just think the manga shouldn't be released, it spoils everything. Now, it's pretty annoying seeing everyone saying, WHAT ACE DIDN'T FIGHT BACK IN THE MANGA!…
(I'm putting part of this one in spoiler tags since the anime hasn't gotten this far yet.)
This is the one and only time i wouldnt be mad if an anime went in a different direction from the manga. In the manga they
! kill ace, but i would be soo much happier if they didnt…
Seriously, YouTube people? You do realize that the anime is BASED ON the manga and not the other way around, right? Sure, Toei pulls some crazy stunts now and again, but I doubt they would go so far as to completely change the story itself like that. facepalm
~~Get it memorized already!
