Third Round Discussion Thread

Yeah, Kuma's power is badass AND adorable!!!

As for Sengoku, I wonder why he didn't do much during the war. WB's "excuse" is that he was not in the best of health and had half his face blown off, etc.

MetaMario

I agree totally. I would love to have Kuma's power (teleporting and pawwing people away >8D)

Beats me. Granted, the Admirals were cleaning up house, but I felt Sengoku should've done a little more than shocked faces. Though he did attack the BB pirates.

Kuma's fruit can be resumed with an expression : GTFO

I really love how Oda comes up with all sorts of creative ways to use Devil Fruits. In a way, it's like Kuma has more than one DF power because he can teleport, take away pain, make bombs, and probably repel emotions too, on top of deflecting attacks like it was nothing.

Sengoku has potential to do more later, maybe? I would love to see his Buddha form again, but as somebody pointed out to me, if every character was going "all out" then it just wouldn't work.

That on top of his calm demeanor just impresses the hell out of me.

Yeah…we'll be seeing more of Sengoku in the future. And the first step to seeing more of his powers is finding the source of them (read: DF name)

This right here suddenly makes me wonder why people give Kizaru such a hard time for having the same expression all the time when Kuma is even more expressionless. lol, the guy can't catch a break.

@Essam:

im done with Magellan campaign actually its the chapter Magellan vs Luffy but i re design it and make it more funny

that actually sounds similar to something i got in store for that match. Ive started some new ones as well, i hope they do sway some people to vote for him. Although I doubt he will get the votes of those who will vote for luffy unconditionally no matter what, but it wont hurt to try.

@Outerspec:

Ah, No Brain Lazer Shooter WITH a DF ability. ;)

you see kuma using his DF powers on the war..?
only one time,(VS Oars III)
for me is hard..
on one side i have a no brain cyborg
on the other side i have ichigo..
is a loose - loose situation

Ouch. Comparing Sengoku to Ichigo? No character deserves that. D:

Seriously, Sengoku is a stragegist, it even says so when he's introduced >_> His job isn't to be the one out there fighting, that's what everyone below him is for. It's like the situation with kings. You send your best mean out to do everything and do little yourself.

The stuff he did do was because no one else was around, or get got intensely angry. Oda couldn't have every character going full powered, otherwise we'd never have gotten to the end of it. And no matter what he did, people would complain that he didn't show so and so doing anything.

I'm aware… But I pointed out the other factors as well. The war wasn't meant to show every character at full power. Just give hints to it. The focus was Ace, Luffy, Wb, and potentially Akainu.

Also... as I said, Sengoku is the fleet admiral. The guy giving the orders. The fighting is left to the grunts by some guys in power.

he's retired… the extent of his activities is training the newbies and collecting his pay checks.

piratemarimo

So basically the guy who fought more is the better character huh? Not personality or anything like that, which Kuma no longer has. I highly doubt Oda will just leave Sengoku out of the action after showing us his Buddha devil fruit like that. You have no basis in saying that he will only be doing boring things from now on. I mean, look at Rayleigh.

@NicoNico28:

I was actually referring to post above me comparing Sengoku to Ichigo and I was merely saying that no One Piece character is as bad as that. I can even confidently say I love Akainu (yes him) more than that guy.

C_uggs

yeah..
ichigo is sooo BAD
so kuma is wining ?..strange ?
well last year sengoku lost to richie(awesome match BTW)
so..kuma is a worthy oponent
wonder how kuma will do in round 4 ..
and tomorrow..Gun Fall VS OP main marketing product
no surprise there..
if God already loose in this tournament.how a EX-God will win ?

I actually don't care for Rayleigh that much.

Oh,I thought you were comparing him to Kuma.

piratemarimo

Kuma is really winning by landslides here. but I want to see how he does against tougher opponents cuz let's face facts: he hasn't had any difficult ones so far.

Chopper's cuteness can only take him so far before he's knocked out. as a random aside, I currently have Chopperman as my desktop wallpaper, thus unintentionally making it harder for me to vote against him. I should change that before the cuteness takes over my mind.

@NicoNico28:

You'd better hope Kitsune doesn't hear you say that. :ninja:
but what my point was is that Rayleigh was retired, and then he came back doing badass things, and it wouldn't be so much of a stretch to suppose that Sengoku could do the same even in retirement. though it would make a funny gag to show him lazing around having tea parties with Garp and getting paid too much for it (like the chapter cover).

C_uggs

and let's face the facts
Chopper can´t win agaisnt hard charecters like crocodile,luffy and Garp
let vote for gun fall !!!!

I don't see Sengoku doing much now,just being laid back.

Luffy will cream that guy.

Magellan is so awesome he and Hannibal made the Impel Down arc.

Your only chance to repent is by voting Nami.

I hated both of them,they had unfunny jokes.

I was planning too anyway,I don't like Usopp much.

Outerspec

BLASPHEMY! Usopp will not grant any of his opponents his almighty power! Nami shall fall beneath his feet and weep for ever going up against the future king of sniping!

I'd vote Gan Fall if Chopper didn't win my undying love.

That scene with the amiudake mushroom was just so damn powerful.

Gan Fall has Manbeard.

Whitebeard endorses him.

piratemarimo

I think we're taking this Man-stuff too far. what have you done Kitsune. You've sparked a revolution. dare I say a MAN-VOLUTION? gets shot

more importantly, I'm sure someone's got a better beard than Gan Fall. I just can't think of who at the moment. He's no Gandalf, that's for sure.

Cyber-Robin

@Flux:

Whitebeard endorses him.

Whitebeard doesn't even have a Beard…

Chopper's stache (despite being fake) is WAY more manlier than WB himself.

Ceies

Dumbledore XD
Gandalf :)
These are the Men with the Gun Fall beard…

You speak lies.

Whitebeard's mustache is manly enough to be a real beard.

C_uggs

i like pierre AND gun fall
the OP version of "don quijote de la mancha"
Chopper ( i know he haves a monster point, and the fight with kumadori was awesome)
is victim of the "kawaii service"
i fell sorry for him
damn midia..

piratemarimo

I love Chopper, but I'm just too excited about tomorrow's match to care a whole lot. Sadly I probably won't have the free time to sit undisturbed in front of my laptop and constantly refresh the page for hours and hours tomorrow.

NicoNico28

Hmm,I still haven't decided who I'm voting for in tomorrow's match.

Nia

@NicoNico28:

I was undecided, too, but Crocodile's campaigns won me over (also, TräshCät).

piratemarimo

I am loving your avatar Nia.

Flux

CRAP. One of the biggest matches on tomorrow, and I haven't even boarded the Campaign train !!

Runs off to buy ticket

ETA: There's a strong possibility I won't be campaigning from Tuesday-Friday or longer though.
I have important news coming IRL, on Tues and I'm not sure whether I'll be in a campaigning mood.

cottonsocks

And I can't vote. D:
Maybe next year. :ninja:

We will see. :happy:

Cyan D. Funk

I expect a 60/40 victory in Bon-chan's favor.

Do not disapoint me.

Captain Shmeckie

Pfft. The pimp being beaten by his "special interests" ho?! Poppycock!

Captain Hypersock

All right, Croc. Win this next one and the yacht's all yours.

puffin

Croc has to lose against Bon, please! :cwy:

Outerspec

Maybe Bon-Chan can impersonate Crocodile and take the win…>_>

MetaMario

@Outerspec:

Maybe Bon-Chan can impersonate Crocodile and take the win…>_>

So a vote for Bon-chan would be a vote for Crocodile?

Anyways, I like both characters a lot (slightly more partial towards Crocodile), so in theory, either winning is good to me. But it's so hard to choose between them.
