@sanji499:
I am trying to go your website but it crashes. Is it just me ?
It's just you.
Anyway, I was estatic to find the new episode of the podcast, the one I had been waiting since the beginning of the month!
It's great news to hear One Piece is making its way to the top in America.
The anime episode was pretty decent. Ace finally stopped going "kkhkhkhkhkh…!" and the animation of Luffy fighting random marines was very fluid. I also laughed with all the scenes with Buggy. The pacing was fine, with the exception of a few certain scenes, and as usual, I eagerly await the next episode.
It got really exciting with the manga recap:
- I laughed when you guys took so long to move from the color spread cover, but of course, it's one that deserves a lot of attention.
- The best pages in this chapter are definitely Sanji's entrance, Rockstar Brook and Usopp's level up (then the return of his lies).
- By the way, Zoro probably got so lost that he made it to the right place this time.
- The panel with Fake Robin and the cucumber was discussed for a few pages in the chapter thread, actually. I hope the Fake Chopper will make a reappearance...
- Luffy, for once, isn't throwing himself out in the open. Has he become more intelligent!?
Yes, a marvelous chapter, and a great review of it in the podcast. (I could copy and paste this line for many of your podcast episodes.) And for some responses to certain Piece Together Q's:
- Oh, man, if Franky and the Sunny got new fuel sources, I would be in a mix. It's an awesome idea, but it would change too much of Franky...
- Zoro is probably just winking on the color spread. I highly doubt he would have lost an eye.
- I'm going with the theory that Kuma actually isn't brainwashed and just passed by to pass some news. (Shakky kicking his ass would have been great, though.)
- I have been waiting for Sogeking's theme song to reappear for months. A scene with Sogeking better show up soon...
In regards to the contest, I can't wait to see some of the entries. Not sure if I'll be making one, but it'll be considered (I have little experience in editing...).
It's funny that I never quite got all your names, but I've been learning... By the way, nice surprise.
