Uh, Finger Pistol is pretty much what shigan translates to anyway. Same with geppou (well, more like ''moon step'', but close enough).
yeah but it doesn't sound cool which is what attack names are all about
like pasta machine

Well, imagine how the Japanese must feel to see an attack name that reads ''tuna'' or ''local area network''.
Finally got my order. The mail man messed up the tracking number, and my local post office sent it right back to Chapters… The books had quite the adveeeeenture.

hahhahahahaha…..right now at the very moment of this post (actually about 15 minutes ago) i just bought volume 0 on ebay.....for 25 fucking dollars and 10 dollars shipping, i know Japs just want to milk me, but fuck it, im scared they werent going to release the volume
Finally got the email from Rightstuf that my volumes 34-38 shipped out yesterday, along with Bleach 30 and FMA 23 from other orders, it does get a little annoying sometimes when I have partial orders that are listed as "Reserved for Order" for a week or more due to their method of waiting until a certain threshold is met before shipping out partial orders. Oh well, at least I'll have plenty of reading to catch up on when they arrive, plus the April volumes will be here before we know it!
Lucky, they have yet to ship my 36-38 to me. All it keep saying is back order. I preorder the day they were up on the sight too. -.- Life must hate me.
God kaku and kalifas betrayal still hurts me:sad:
I didnt see 37 or 38.. the highest i saw at borders was 36..
most of the displays were for Skypia 27-33
All my borders had was 34,35, and 38….
Last I checked here, the Borders I work at has only gotten up to 35, along with 37. We've received a One Piece display to put the Water Seven volumes in, but until 36 and 38 finally come in (and it's nearing the two week mark now), we can't put it out.
Seriously, this is getting even more ridiculous than the 1 1/2 weeks we had to wait for volume 30 to finally show up (after getting 29 and 31-33 on time).
Borders don't want to give in to that 5 for the price of 4 deal.
That's weird.
I got all of them a couple of weeks ago and I'm in england.
like I mentioned before… the boarders near my house doesn't give a fuck.
I came to take advantage of the deal and they told me the new releases from January were "somewhere in the back, packed away".... it was mid fucking February
course the new volume of Naruto was on display in all it's shitty glory
It's like they were begging me to take my buisness to Barnes and Noble. Who by the way have had ALL the new releases stocked and ready to sell THE NIGHT BEFORE the scheduled release
then I was told by a fellow gamestop slave that we get a 30% discount over there...
The borders that is a half hour from where I lived had Volumes 1 - 20, and 24 - 38, when I went there yesterday. But I didn't got them, since I end up getting the newest volume of Astonishing X-Men. Also they had Volume 34 - 38 out on display in the new manga releases with the new volume of Bleach.
Accidentally ended up in London at the weekend so managed to pick up all of this months books from Forbidden Planet and Orbital.
Amazing stuff.

And you should've. You're motherfucking Michael Douglas. You don't take shit from no-one.

@Zoro's:

While I was at the one on Boston, MA killing time, I checked out their OP shelf. I saw 1-3, 6-10, 16-19, 22-30, 32-38 there.
Also saw 3 copies of Bokurano vol.1 there. Heh, the size of one was like two of my OP volumes put together. xP
I bought a few volumes today, now I have all Water Seven volumes released so far. I'm really looking forward to volume 41.
Man, I wanted to read all of these in order, but I just got 36, so fuck it.

You know, I've been loyal to Borders for many years, but even I'm starting to have my doubts now. I didn't get it as bad as you (at least my Borders has had all the new volumes out within the month, thus far) but I just got back from Borders two days ago and they still don't have volume 38! And this after I already went there earlier this month, the day after the release date, where all they had was voume 37.
Okay, al my march volumes on rightstuf have been marked as reserved for my order so Im hoping i get them sooner rather than later. I can honestly say that this is probably the last time I'm ordering the books from rightstuf. Hello Amazon.

Why not book depository? low costs and free and fast shipping.
I just checked book depository, and it has the release dates a month late? It says vol 39 (an april volume) comes out in 45 days? April's only 16 days away. But then again, it says 38 (a march volume) comes out on april 1 and has it in stock, If you pre order from them, around when do you get the volumes?
Yeah, don't pay attention to the dates, they dispatched the March volumes late February for me and I got them early March.
I'm now waiying for 37 and 36 (one of them or both arrived, just need to pick it up) and pre-ordered the April volumes.
I'm fairly sure I got the last 5 volumes before the official ship date at book depository.
So it's pretty good.
And Book Depository has no problems when shipping to the US?
Hmm, I don't know about that.
But I live in Israel and had no problems with it, and I finally found a site with free shipping to Israel. xD

Same here… except volume 38, which is still on backorder.:getlost:
Sheesh, what the hell is taking so long?! Did Viz just print like, 5 copies of each volume and decide to wait a month before making another printing or something?
Just got 37, that's really fast shipping. (one week, now waiting for 36 which should arrive sunday/monday.)
The town I live in lacks a Borders, but when I went out of town, we found a Borders. I went to the Graphic Novels section, in front of me was a little display with Naruto, with a ton of its graphic novels. I was thinking "Why doesn't One Piece get a display?"
Then I turned around. There was a display of One Piece mangas.
Fucking epic. Now I'm up to 35.

They had one at the Barnes and Noble I go to…
Oh, and Right Stuf finally shipped my 33-37. I will soon be complete up to Volume 38.
Every major bookstore I go to has One Piece, but it seems like no-ones buying them :(
Oh well, it's their loss right? ^_^
Why is there 37 days between the release of volume 49 and 50 at bok depository?
None of the preorder dates at book depository are ever that accurate.
I just check back when the volumes are reported to be in the wild and they're normally in stock.
Yeah, pay no attention to the release dates. They get it when it's out for sale (and even a bit before)
I am going to try to start supporting the speed up starting with 45 and up. Did not buy the earlier ones because for 1, I could not afford so much and 2, I did not want to spoil the dvd release.
Huh, guess I'm not the only one who can't seem to find volume 38.
The Borders I work at STILL hasn't gotten it in, but we did finally get 36, so…yay?
@LUFFY#1:

Shouldn't you start at 46 then? Volume 45 is the aftermath of the Water Seven/Enies Lobby arc, and 46 begins Thriller Bark.
I already asked a while ago, but now that its closer to the time, is there any way for me to get the issues of jump with the stickers in them? (lives in scotland)

I already know 45 is a aftermath volume, but it is my favorite volume.
A weird question but does anybody know if there have been any recent reviews on the speed up volumes? I think I saw one on 33 but I have seen none after that.
Those darn ninja! (and if only people could see the truth about number 4, and I thought number 16 wasn't as popular anymore)
*We cracked the Top 20 at least! First the Top 20, then the Top 10 then finally Numba 1

Mangablog.net posts links to reviews and One Piece as popped up a lot since the release of the omnibuses and speed up volumes.
I was looking at vol 33 in Borders and noticed Porche calls Chopper "Chappy" for some reason. Minor but thought I would mention it..
Do you remember what she called him in the japanese version?
I can't seem to remember.
I thought it was Choppy. But, maybe I missed something :/
She called him Chappy in the original Japanese.
チャッピー
No kidding! I guess scanlators and subbers alike thought it was supposed to be Choppy. Does Porche have an accent or something?
