So where do you stand on duration, exactly? I've always maintained a shorter one, in months, so long as it doesn't really surpass a year. Never saw much need to go beyond a year, and thought an ideal time would be six months or nine months or so. Given the news though, I'd say at the start of the New Year maybe, or perhaps a year from that day. Still not sure what to make of Oda's comments in Volume 0 and the SW artbook.
Looking at the poll, how many people still think/hope it will be two years or more? Why?
As short as possible while still being long enough for a believable power increase. A couple of months, half a year tops would be best in my opinion.
That way the other supernovae shouldn't be too far ahead. And honestly I can't see Sanji surviving longer than half a year without seeing a real woman
Yeah, I already saw how much Robin's hair got longer. Look at her in chap 237 (or so) and then look @ the colourspread of 503 or 507 (I'm not 100% sure which of these two) which is called declaration of war (after Luffy 1HKOed Chalros), there you can see how much Oda let Robin's hair grow.
But that is nothing dramatically, I'm also okay if Oda let Nami's and Robin's boobs grow even further, I love this development. Also you can see how much Oda changed his drawing style on each SH throughout the time (especially Chopper and Zoros eyes). I just don't wanna see a Franky with a completely different face or a half bald head of him (cause of aging), or a super anabolica-Usoppe (like I saw in that filler episode of him! :sad:) Even Sanjis hair can get longer, but please no pony tail, I would die instantly…!
I doubt Franky will change his face and his body will probably remain kinda popeye-ish. Hairstyle and clothing is what will change for most of them. The ones who I believe could really change significantly apart from clothing and hair are Usopp and Chopper. Depending on how long the skip is Chopper might go through a major growth spurt. He's only 14 if I remember correctly and if the skip was a year or more he could do a Coby. As for Usopp I figure he might start to really resemble his dad in terms of built.
