I like these admins =D
Why would Luffy have inherited shanks's will? Im pretty sure it doesnt work like that. But it is the one thing im anticipating most. when the introduction to prophecy came in im pretty sure that the destroyed civilisation must have prophesised something about a man with the name 'D' will awake or uncover that ancient country
or even something edgy like 'the will of "D" will have the power to save or destroy the world'. completely unfounded i know
but thats the feeling i get when i look at Luffy and Blackbeard -
Ok finally found the energy and time to write my view of this entire chapter:
The first thing that caught my eye, was FI inhabitants trying to stop the ship with their own hands.
I mean, I get the idea the symbolism of sacrifice and effort and struggle however, I simply cannot see it any different than pure stupidity and a bit childish writing by Oda.
Scenes like this, although they have some higher meaning and are definitely "deep" in meaning, like everyone willing to sacrifice and help in any way they can…, even so...I simply see them as if Oda is playing on this whole feelings card a bit too much.And it is similar with the princess, she escapes into the deep see and than...what does she do?
She goes straight up...not away from the bubble and as far away but only up up and up...Before I knew what was going to happen I found it strange and silly... but again, all these emotions and the way she feels obliged to help in any way and so on...Than all of a sudden Luffy in the water, almost helpless in his bubble. I understand it I really do, but in a way this way he looks a bit pathetic after his determination that this time around he will be able to protect the people he cherish.
Yeah well saved by the bell.
This is manga, where guys like Shanks and other cool characters dont get their asses saved left and right by some "minor" character. Seems this one is reserved for our main hero.
Interesting enough I never once felt that Goku came out so childish impulsive and helpless as Luffy often seems to be. Although we can argue he was just as "stupid" if not more and so on.
But when it came to doing things he needed to do he would more often than not came out looking cool :P
Yeah a pathetic way to say it especially if you consider that this should be a bit deeper more developed manga than Dragon Ball and that what is cool doesn't mean it is realistic or good. However like it or not, we wish our main characters more often than not to look like that, majority of people here like that aspect and not the realistic I got my ass saved sceneAnd finally I will diss the events in general that took place
We can say that basically what happened this chapter is:
chase chase, Hodi attacks Van decken the end.
Of course there were some notions about Noah and other stuff happening as well but in general, this saga has been quite draggy for me personally must say. Perhaps because Hodi is such a weak character and perhaps because of the fact, he is still alive and kicking and not only that. He nearly managed to started whooping Luffys ass...that it feels it is dragging.
Truth be told I wish this arc this fighting scenes or what not to be over soon and that we see the aftermath and start getting "serious" and head to new world.
99% of people wont agree with the said above and with me in general but it is my opinion and most of all feeling after having read this chapter for third time now. The feeling is if I want it or not negative and it wasnt like that 1 chapter ago, but suddenly after this chapter loads has changed which is in a way weird, especially if we consider how loads of people are praising the chapter itself.
Sorry folks but thats just the way I see it

No worries i can respect this alot. I didnt really like the chapter itself as it made no 'progress' and like you iv been feeling the saga is trying very hard to wow us with the return of the straw hats and almost feel the awe. But i must say i dont really like it being based underwater where there are so many restrictions for the SH and im just eager to see the new world.
Im interested to see what luffy will do when hes 'trapped in that bubble with nothing but water around him but at the same time i dont understand why Jimbei didnt just go out there and take on Hody
But this chapter is just seen as a bridge to me, a necessary one that will take us on to better things, I dont think Oda has lost it, his motives just arnt clear yet

I agree with you on two things: one, that this and the previous chapters aren't as interesting as some before; two, it does seem like it's dragging. However, I will add that this and the previous chapters are the "link-up" chapters between the really impressive feats and important plot elements. Usually, after readers are shown something that is really exciting, there has to be some time to build up another level of excitement, like a good joke (but not exclusive to). As for the dragging, it's in certain chapters, but the flashback overall seems rather rushed. If Oda chose a more in-depth explanation, we'd probably still be in it or just past it. But, its purpose was simply to inform and incite some sympathy for characters that weren't given much time on-screen, and it's rather successful from this point of view.
Basically, I'm just saying that I'm satisfied with this arc, though I'm not blown away by it.
Edit: I believe the next crowning moment will be upon us soon. Link-up chapters that last longer in succession should lead to more brilliance later. Besides, this arc WON'T be ending so soon.

Interesting enough I never once felt that Goku came out so childish impulsive and helpless as Luffy often seems to be. Although we can argue he was just as "stupid" if not more and so on.
To be fair, thats probably because in the Db world, you just had to be really strong to survive. It was all about being the strongest. In the One Piece world, there are usually more things to factor in than pure strength.
-
why Jimbei didnt just go out there and take on Hody.
Because he wants Luffy (human) to defeat him.
-
Sorry folks but thats just the way I see it
Well nothing that can be said about your post, its your opinion there is practically nothing left that anyone can add to that than anything that would amount to more than "Your opinion sucks and you are wrong, mine is the right opinion" or "I totally agree".
It seems you know that since your very defensive and apologetic in your post.
Your post makes it also seem unlikely that you would reconsider your position.All in all in makes me wonder what purpose this post has?
Still I'll bite once and try to debate why I think your opinion is nonesensical.
So first and foremost I really don't understand why you're taking an issue with Luffy receiving help, it's a central theme in this manga which repeats itself arc over arc. Luffy always receives outside help and in my eyes it never tarnished his own moments of glory. Sanjis words on Enels Lobby sums it up pretty well "Everyone has something he can and cannot do" or even before that Luffy lamenting during the Arlong Arc how he would be useless alone.
Mihawk commenting on how Luffys greatest power is making allies, and Luffy confessing during his flashback how he can't stand being alone.Exactly that theme how we can't be alone, how important bonds of friendship are and how the strength of teamwork can overcome any hardships, is something what I believe made many fall in love with this series. So with it being so central its weird to be so vocal about it in this arc? But you know since I'm new I don't know if you also complained about how pell flew luffy to his fight with crocodile or how Water7 helped him get to Enies Lobby. Maybe you like One Piece for an entirely different reason. So if that's the case ok can't argue that, right?
Now about the princess going up, I don't understand what was so silly about it?
It was explained that the ship is in danger of getting damaged being nearly at the sea floor. That's the reason why she heads up. If you mean the scene where she throws herself before the ship, there are several logical reason for it.
1. She is not a reader, like us so she might not have the same understanding of VDDs powers like we do.
2. She is naive and idealistic, maybe she seriously thought her trying pleading with VDD would amount to anything.
3. not a reason but something to consider, her action probably just took very few seconds and I don't know if imminent danger would face my country that I would run away instead of trying to face it.Last but not least your argument about how Shanks doesnt need rescuing is really…. yeah I want to put it discrete it's not very thought out.
Because Shanks is someone at the height of his power. He is at the peak of his journey someone who has probably accomplished almost everything that he aimed for. We don't know if he didn't need the same rescueing when he was still on rogers ship, or what happened in the first few adventures of the red hairs.
Luffy is for all intended purposes still in his journey of growing to be pirate king, he is incomplete which makes it so fun to watch him progress.
And what people seem to misunderstand what Aces dead did to him is not giving him the drive to get the power of allmighty pwnage but rather makes him understand the difference between him and the world and what he lacks.
Having understood that Luffy didn't train to be stronger the 3 Admirals or the Yonkous but rather to regain his confidence in his own strength to protect his friends.phew...
At the end I have to add that I kind of agree that this arc feels very slow and kind of draggy and for now it doesn't feel like a very good arc. But tell you what I thought the same thing about Skypea and the Foxy arc when I read them weekly.
But now in retrospective being able to read them in one go I think Skypea is a fantastic arc that lets you feel that spirit of adventure, whereas the Foxy arc was just pure silly fun and also told us that fights are not all about power but sometimes also about circumstances. -
Ok finally found the energy and time to write my view of this entire chapter:
The first thing that caught my eye, was FI inhabitants trying to stop the ship with their own hands.
I mean, I get the idea the symbolism of sacrifice and effort and struggle however, I simply cannot see it any different than pure stupidity and a bit childish writing by Oda.
Scenes like this, although they have some higher meaning and are definitely "deep" in meaning, like everyone willing to sacrifice and help in any way they can…, even so...I simply see them as if Oda is playing on this whole feelings card a bit too much.it is you that trying to hard to look into something. there is nothing really wrong with that scene.it just like somebody jump in front of bus to save somebody that might be hit by the bus. if you are really smart and try to look deeply into something try to put yourself in that condition and pressure. most of the people will do something stupid most of the times. don't try to be smart and at the same time neglect other factors.
And it is similar with the princess, she escapes into the deep see and than…what does she do?
She goes straight up...not away from the bubble and as far away but only up up and up...Before I knew what was going to happen I found it strange and silly... but again, all these emotions and the way she feels obliged to help in any way and so on...my main point is the same with my point above. and maybe you never really experience getting chase by the wild boar or buffalo or etc. in theory, when getting chase by wild boar in the jungle, you will just need to run not in straight line but when you actually in that kind of situation, it is very hard to do. most of the times people will run straight. please do not take thing lightly.
Than all of a sudden Luffy in the water, almost helpless in his bubble. I understand it I really do, but in a way this way he looks a bit pathetic after his determination that this time around he will be able to protect the people he cherish.
Yeah well saved by the bell.seriously? are you serious? even in real life you can be really well determination and full of confidence but doesn't mean that you will be success at everything you are doing. in one piece it is very clear that df user suck in the water. same with luffy even if he is the main character. and i think this is the second time we see in the manga luffy fight in the water. the first time against the kraken we see that luffy have a problem.how limited his option are. how the sea draining his power. so i don't see why he must suddenly having no problem fighting in the water.
This is manga, where guys like Shanks and other cool characters dont get their asses saved left and right by some "minor" character. Seems this one is reserved for our main hero.
Interesting enough I never once felt that Goku came out so childish impulsive and helpless as Luffy often seems to be. Although we can argue he was just as "stupid" if not more and so on.you are just being stupid are you?:wassat:
But when it came to doing things he needed to do he would more often than not came out looking cool :P
Yeah a pathetic way to say it especially if you consider that this should be a bit deeper more developed manga than Dragon Ball and that what is cool doesn't mean it is realistic or good. However like it or not, we wish our main characters more often than not to look like that, majority of people here like that aspect and not the realistic I got my ass saved scenethere is nothing wrong getting help even if the help is from fodder. goku dies 2 time in the manga IIRC. Satan help him in the final fight against Buu. and in One Piece, one of the main themes? is about friendship and teamwork. so if Luffy settle everything alone, people will still bitching. and one piece is known as a manga that don't neglect most of its characters even if their fodder or minor.
And finally I will diss the events in general that took place
We can say that basically what happened this chapter is:
chase chase, Hodi attacks Van decken the end.
you really want to go this way. most of the chapter can be generalized like this if you no what i mean. and one piece is not about 1 chapter. its about a collection of story. you are just being nitpicking. you don't like current arc so you dissed everything. and its your fault setting the bar to high.
99% of people wont agree with the said above and with me in general but it is my opinion and most of all feeling after having read this chapter for third time now. The feeling is if I want it or not negative and it wasnt like that 1 chapter ago, but suddenly after this chapter loads has changed which is in a way weird, especially if we consider how loads of people are praising the chapter itself.
Sorry folks but thats just the way I see it
people just being stupid. One Piece is full of flaws, this arc too is not as good as other arc but it is not as bad as you guys say.
-
Man these chapter discussions sure get ugly after a few days
-
Yeah well, we are talking discussing it in a polite way, so I guess all is good. I like to talk about things like that and really enjoy reading people's opinion on different matter. Me agreeing with it or not, I often find something which I have missed or saw in a different way. So it makes me see the entire chapter if ever so little different
-
That man in the cover story with the teeth, wasn't he missing a huge chunk of his neck?

it doesn't contradict with the cover

Cool, exactly what I was looking for.

Sorry if people already talked about this, but is that kid on the cover the same kid on the page Akagami7 posted? They have the same round nose, at least.

Well, seeing a bunch of people aren't happy with the chapter, here's a little something to brighten up your moods hopefully!
Here's a Mock-review for all of you
! CHAPTER 638
! "Runawayhoshi" OR "MURDER she-fish wrote"
! -we start of with From The Decks Of The World #22 "Alabasta kingdom - Environmental Minister Koza"
! -we see Koza, his dad, the little dude Bon-chan beat up, and a bunch of other dudes standing around a
thriving Yuba
! -all are happy reading about the Strawhat's awesomeness
! -Koza has lovely long locks now, oh my. Oh, he's also the enviro. minister. We now have an Al Gore of the
One Piece world.
! -Koza's dad got…older
! -young man, WHAT are you doing with that badly redrawn hand? I know Nami and Robin got oodles
hotter, but really now.
! GET TO THE CHAPPA
! -We are treated to a very lovely first panel.
-I wonder how Toei is gonna handle all this art? meh. stills.
-Fishfolk are telling shiraboobs to run while VD tells her there is nowhere for her to run to.
-VD you idiot, its the ocean. She has EVERYWHERE to run to.
-It seems like the knife VD threw at Princess Boobs landed on her shoulder, and is still bleeding.
-With ...."pwiffs".
-Because when i bleed, my blood goes "pwiff" too.
-Boobhoshi states that she has to get to the ocean or else Noah is going to destroy FI, and since the main
entrance is too far away she's going to use the Ryuuguu Palace entrance to escape into the ocean.
-Fishfolk start getting distressed because boobhoshi is giving her life for them.
! -We get paned up to the chain hanging from Noah
-Hody is on the chain, still pissed as hell.
-Also, VERY BADLY PLACED DOG HEAD.
-What.
-It is.
! -Back on the ground Sanji still hasn't moved. For a week.
-Jinbei tells Luffy to be careful when facing Hody in the ocean.
-Sanji then proceeds to level out how strong his kick has to be to get luffy to the chains and not kick him
into the ocean, which is awesome. It means he can kick someone very VERY far away.
-And then he does.
-Luffy gets flung into the air, knocked out of FI's first protection bubble looking ridiculous in the process,
and lands on a chain.
-Luffy looks around and notices Hody is under him.
-He also notices a bunch of fishfolk trying to.... slow down the ark ...by....pulling...TRYING to pull down on
of the chains.
-This they do to help boobhoshi. Sorry fish. It's not that you are weak. It's just that the Law of One Piece
states that only Luffy gets to save the princess. For he is awesome. Also, you are incredibly weak.
-Boobhoshi sees this aaaaand...yep, she cries.
-Hody then sees this aaaaand...yep, he kills them.
-looking INCREDIBLY creepy in the process.
-seriously, is he smiling or scowling?
-probably both. Those drugs are really doing a number on him.
-So shiraboohoohoshi cries and Luffy gets pissed some more, then boobhoshi finds the palace gateway
open and escapes from it, and Noah follows.
-Noah goes up pretty quick and when it goes up into the ocean Luffy loses his grip on the chain and
uses the coral thing Jinbei gave him last chapter to stay alive.
-When he gets in the bubble he sees the chain leaving, and asks it to wait.
-ILU Luffy
-A Hody Jones Appeared!
-with his rape face on.
! Hody : "Everywhere I look, the whole world around me is engulfed in ocean...A "human who can't
even breathe underwater...can't ever possibly become king of the ocean!!! NOW BEND OVER, YOU
INFERIOR BEING!!!"
! -Elsewhere, VD is continuing to chase shirahoboobs
-Really, VD is one resilient stalker. He should be in The Guinness Book of World Records.
! VD : "HAHAHA! HOWS YOUR FREEDOM MY PRETTY~! WILL YOU DIE OF "PWIFF"ing BLOOD
OR A GIANT SHIP CRASHING INTO YOU~?! I WILL GIVE YOU ONE LAST CHANCE! SAY "yes<3" AND
I'LL SAVE YOU~<3"
! -you know who VD reminds me of? Frollo. From Hunchback of Notre Dame. Same game.
! VD/Frollo : "BE MINE!!!!"
Shirahoshi/
Esmeralda : "GO AWAY PERVERT YOU ARE NOT MY TYPE!!!!!"
VD/Frollo : "THEN DIIIIIIIIIE~"
! I can hear the lyrics to "hellfire" in my head right now. Don't know what i'm talking about? shame on you!
youtube it!
! -VD throws a bunch of knives, but they get blocked by 2 of the 3 princes
-one of them yells that papa fish says its "unforgivable to damage Noah" so they have to protect it.
-so they decide that the only place the ark wont be beaten up by the ocean floor is....the surface of the
ocean.
-makes sense.
! -We pan to Luffy and Hody. Luffy got saved by the eldest of the 3 princes. Hody smiles... smirks... grins...
i never know when the character's teeth are that sharp and he HAS NO EYEBROWS OMG I JUST
NOTICED
-Hody pulls out a huge scythe blade. Out of his ass, apparently, because i don't remember that being
anywhere near him. Correct me if I'm wrong.
-He puts it ...on his dorsal fin i think. Either that or he just ripped out his dorsal fin, threw it in the ocean,
and hot-glued the scythe blade to his back in the middle of the ocean.
-He then turns into a Formula one car.
-A formula one car with a scythe blade.
-A formula one car with a scythe blade 10,000 meters under the sea that is capable of cutting rocks
and a very big fish's head.
-poor fish.
-Luffy and prince run away
! Luffy : "Hey, get me to the deck of that ship! I really wanna beat up "hody" and "that guy that
throws a bunch of shit everywhere!!"
! -ILU Luffy X2
! -Luffy and fish prince talk about protecting boobhoshi, promises- Hody shows up and says he'll just go on ahead to the deck.
-Boobhoshi is swimming to the skies, with a giant ship hot on her trail. or tail. whichever you prefer.
! -On Noah, Hody finally reaches the deck and meets with VD.
-VD acts all friendly with Hody, as if he wasnt gonna squish him to death a couple of moments before.
-Hody has his confusing smile/grin/smirk on. Again, can't tell. Then HE STABS VD IN THE STOMACH.
-ow.
-Then Hody, like the psychic fish he is, asks a question humans on AP forum have been asking as well.
! Hody : " If you die...what would happen to the ship?"
! - CHAPTER END
! ~#$%** crazy dabble **%$#~
! VD : " LIKE FIRE~ DARK FIRE~ THIS BURNING IN MY SKIN-
Hody : Stabs
Hody : " If you die...what would happen to the ship?"
VD : "HA...HHHAA....!!? HAAAAAAAAAAOW WOULD I KNOW I WOULD BE DEAD!!! YOU
RUINED MY SONG YOU ASS!!and heres a second serving if you liked the first.
! ONE PIECE 637
! "An ancient ark" OR "Hody gets fucked, commits Grand Theft Ark-o"
! -Dr. Kureha (A.K.A 141 year old badass) is standing in front of Wapol's a-certain-person-recognized-by-
the-world-government-and-is-now-an-evil-king-on-another-island's castle, and the isshi- 100.
! -awesome virgin flower grandma is now wearing leather with flame patterns. She's so hot that there's
probably no snow under her feet.
! -She's also wearing a t-shirt with an X and a top hat!
! -Daaaw awesome granny is a softy <3
! -A flag with the same symbol is behind her, along with chopper's jolly roger on the castle as well.
! -cant wait for Alabasta covers, maybe they will show what Croc's been up to fingers crossed
! ONWARD TO BEGINNING OF CHA-PE-TAR
! -NFP are in awe. Rightfully so.
! fodder-fish 1 : "Holy crap the steroids aren't working for Hody!"
fodder-fish 2 : "NO WAIT, LOOK! its a bird…its a plane...its...!!!"
! -a fish.
! Hody : "ROOOOOOAAAAAR!!!"
! -wait a sec... fish roar? that isn't right. they don't roar.....do they...?
! Luffy : "daaaaamn you don't die do you. You're built like a damn tank!"
Hody : "DO YOU KNOW WHAT FISHMAN KARATE IS??!?!?!?!!
! -says the guy fish bleeding all over himself.
! Luffy : "..."
! -Hody punches luffy in the face
! fodder-fish : "OMG is punch is so powerful it blew his head awa-"
Luffy : " not gonna work. 'cuz im rubber 8D"
! -this moment is just awesome, i can practically visualize the animated scene with Luffy's "Gomu dakara"
-also seriously? that's his fish-a-te moves? Jinbe wasn't kidding when he said Hody was a noob.
-Speaking of Jinbei, where is he? Meh. Probably choking someone.
-Luffy uses CoA haki, his forehead turns all black and shiny
! Hody : "ah fuck, IRON SHELL DIVISION ! PROTECT MEEEE"
fodder fishies "Ha! Go ahead! your head will smash open!"
Luffy : "KANE!!!!!"
! -Luffy KOs fishy and proceeds to make wonderful face print art at the same time
! Iron < Luffy's head
! -i knew Luffy was a hardheaded kid but this is just ridiculous. Deliciously ridiculous.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 1
! -Luffy grins while wiping dirt off his forehead with his thumb, which only luffy could make look so damn
cool. Again, i want to see that animated. And make it a GIF. And make it my avatar. To watch on loop
forever.
! -Hody tries to bring in a good kick, looking really weird in the process. Seriously his arm looks out of
place. Wouldn't it fit better if his arm was up high or to his sides? I don't think that pose is very balanced.
! But whatever.
I'll blame it on the drugs.
! -Luffy notices Hody and CoAs his arm
! -Luffy uses his arm to stop steroid-fish's kick, looking damn good in the process
! Hody : " GWAAAAAAH!!!"
fodder fish : "GWAAAAAAAH!?????"
! -Luffy's so awesome even him on defense hurts.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 2
! -Luffy CoAs his legs, jumps up, practically looks like he is break-dancing midair, and stomps Hody on
the head
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 3
! -Hody, pissed, tries to hit luffy with his water balls of doom
! Hody "YABUSAME!!!!!"
Luffy "…"
! -Luffy dodges every one of them like a boss.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT: 4
! -luffy pulls back a punch with CoA and lands it square onto Hody's stomach......with a HUFFFF.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 5
! -Hody actually looks like a fish now. seriously look. His eyes are puffy and his lips look like they are
in a position to kiss at anytime. Sure he's spitting out blood, but at least he looks like what he loves now.
! -Also, this chapter has a lot of "Hody tries" in them. Poor fishy.
! -Luffy's punch sends hody flying. silly luffy. fish aren't supposed to fly. They're supposed to be fried.
-Surume is awestruck, along with Shirahoshi (A.K.A. Giant-Boobs), all of the fish-people, and whoever is
reading this chapter.
! Random-fish : "So this is ...the true strength of these world famous pirates!!"
! -I got the shivers. Not so much of what random fish said, as much as the fact that we probably haven't
seen anything yet.
! -All of a sudden the plaza gets dark
! Fishdom : "DRAGON BALLS?!?!"
! -no. just a giant boat.
...
.........
HOLY SHIT THATS BIG.
HOLY...
And here i thought maybe luffy can giant bazooka it out of way.
That boat is the size of HALF THE DAMN ISLAND.
....
..
GOD THATS BIG.
..
And drawn pretty-ly.
! -Ok so ...people...fish.... fishle are yelling out how Noah is gonna blast away the place because its gonna
burst the bubble holding FI together
! Luffy : "??"
! -A huge ship is crashing down (is slow motion, but still crashing down) on him and all he can muster
up is two question marks. ILU Luffy.
! Nami : "WTH IS THAT"
Franky : "?!"
Jinbei : "wanna see how i choke peop- BWAAA?! NOAH!!?"
! -Fodder-fishys exclaim the obvious, and ask questions we know the answers to.
! Brook : "Wha~t is tha~t?!"
Chopper : "ITS HU~GE....!!!.....!!!"
! -Why so many dots Oda?
! Mansopp : "I HAVE NO IDEA WHATS GOING ON!!! because you are manly, usopp. BUT WE ARE DOOMED!!!
Robin : "If all of us were smashed at once, the ocean would probably be dyed red."
! -Robin, I could put you in a room full of angst-y emo teenagers dressed in black from head to converse-
wearing toes and horrendous make-up from ear to ear whom make it their life's only calling to be
completely miserable and hate the world, and they would all look like happy preppy school children
compared to you. You morbid woman you.
! -Fishdom start to run evacuate.
! -Zoro looks up at the giant boat falling down on him while holding off a fodder fish. Seriously he is so
calm, all that's left is for him to do is start sipping a cup of tea with his free hand.
! -Sanji actually looks worried. Well, more annoyed then worried.
! -Shira-boobs is shocked. But then again, when isn't she.
! -Suddenly, a hairy thing falls.
! -Awesome entrance by Wadatsumi.

! -Oh wow. I'm not sure how to react to this ...thing taking all baby-like. Should i puke, or shoot out
rainbows out my cheeks?
! -Probably both.
! -fish-fodder ask their captain if the fact that there is a giant half-island sized ship crashing down on them
about to kill them all was a part of his plan.
! -...
! Hody : "SHUT UP U USELESS IDIOTS"

Wadatsumi : "doh!"
Jinbei : "Princess big boo- Shirahoshi?! Impossible! So he used his DF power to kill her becuase
of that unholy rejection that no man would ever get over?! You know, now that i think about
it you were a bit harsh on him shiraho-"
fodderfish : "SHIRAHOSHIS GONE!"
Jinbei + VD : " WHA~?!?!"
Big Boobs : " I'm over here!!"
! -So we turn the page to see a lovely 2 page spread.
! -Big Boobs escaped to the air to redirect the ark's movement.
! VD : "Ooooooh~! My beloved that im going to kill !!!!
shirahoshiboobs : "im your target right ?! then just take my life alone! don't involve anyfish
else!!! IF YOU WANT ME IM RIGHT HERE"
! -bad choice of words, but i'll move on.

Pretty good character development on her part.

-Hody gets pissy...er
! Hody : "VD U 2 ASSED BASTARD!!!!"
VD : "DIE MY BELOVED THAT I HAVE STALKED SINCE THE AGE OF 6!!!!"

of her left shoulder. And that she's bleeding.
! -Ark starts to turn away
! Luffy : "That weakhoshi! I told her to stay close! My badassery would have protected her!"
! -Hody pulls a Houdini and ends up on one of Noah's chains.
! -Here we have another 2 page spread, and my favorite of the chapter
! -I get a giddy feeling whenever i see Oda pulling off his signature "lines-get-darker-and-thicker-as-
they-get-closer-to-you" move. The perspective in this panel is amazing and-
IM MILLY : "makes me WET!"
-yes. I'm Milly. Youtube it.
! Hody : "YOU 2 ASSED ASS. Well whatever, I'm using this against you!"
! -Sanji didn't miss a beat, he's already, literally, flying toward the ladies.
! Luffy : " SANJI! WAIT! I WANNA GO! YOU STAY!"
Sanji : "FINE! but wont u drown?"
Luffy : "JINBE!!"
Jinbei : "!???"
Luffy : "will i drown?"
Jinbei : "........i have no idea. but VD is a DF user, so there's gotta be air! but take this
anyway!"
! -Jinbei gives luffy a bubble making coral.

- Hody shows up and says he'll just go on ahead to the deck.
-
Wow. That seemed like one of Gabzilla's rants. Awesome, has she started doing that again? Always liked her rants
-
Wow. That seemed like one of Gabzilla's rants. Awesome, has she started doing that again? Always liked her rants
Nope, but it is inspired by her rants. Hope you enjoyed !

That shit was awesome and funny, keep up the good work!
-
Well, seeing a bunch of people aren't happy with the chapter, here's a little something to brighten up your moods hopefully!
Here's a Mock-review for all of you
! CHAPTER 638
! "Runawayhoshi" OR "MURDER she-fish wrote"
! -we start of with From The Decks Of The World #22 "Alabasta kingdom - Environmental Minister Koza"
! -we see Koza, his dad, the little dude Bon-chan beat up, and a bunch of other dudes standing around a
thriving Yuba
! -all are happy reading about the Strawhat's awesomeness
! -Koza has lovely long locks now, oh my. Oh, he's also the enviro. minister. We now have an Al Gore of the
One Piece world.
! -Koza's dad got…older
! -young man, WHAT are you doing with that badly redrawn hand? I know Nami and Robin got oodles
hotter, but really now.
! GET TO THE CHAPPA
! -We are treated to a very lovely first panel.
-I wonder how Toei is gonna handle all this art? meh. stills.
-Fishfolk are telling shiraboobs to run while VD tells her there is nowhere for her to run to.
-VD you idiot, its the ocean. She has EVERYWHERE to run to.
-It seems like the knife VD threw at Princess Boobs landed on her shoulder, and is still bleeding.
-With ...."pwiffs".
-Because when i bleed, my blood goes "pwiff" too.
-Boobhoshi states that she has to get to the ocean or else Noah is going to destroy FI, and since the main
entrance is too far away she's going to use the Ryuuguu Palace entrance to escape into the ocean.
-Fishfolk start getting distressed because boobhoshi is giving her life for them.
! -We get paned up to the chain hanging from Noah
-Hody is on the chain, still pissed as hell.
-Also, VERY BADLY PLACED DOG HEAD.
-What.
-It is.
! -Back on the ground Sanji still hasn't moved. For a week.
-Jinbei tells Luffy to be careful when facing Hody in the ocean.
-Sanji then proceeds to level out how strong his kick has to be to get luffy to the chains and not kick him
into the ocean, which is awesome. It means he can kick someone very VERY far away.
-And then he does.
-Luffy gets flung into the air, knocked out of FI's first protection bubble looking ridiculous in the process,
and lands on a chain.
-Luffy looks around and notices Hody is under him.
-He also notices a bunch of fishfolk trying to.... slow down the ark ...by....pulling...TRYING to pull down on
of the chains.
-This they do to help boobhoshi. Sorry fish. It's not that you are weak. It's just that the Law of One Piece
states that only Luffy gets to save the princess. For he is awesome. Also, you are incredibly weak.
-Boobhoshi sees this aaaaand...yep, she cries.
-Hody then sees this aaaaand...yep, he kills them.
-looking INCREDIBLY creepy in the process.
-seriously, is he smiling or scowling?
-probably both. Those drugs are really doing a number on him.
-So shiraboohoohoshi cries and Luffy gets pissed some more, then boobhoshi finds the palace gateway
open and escapes from it, and Noah follows.
-Noah goes up pretty quick and when it goes up into the ocean Luffy loses his grip on the chain and
uses the coral thing Jinbei gave him last chapter to stay alive.
-When he gets in the bubble he sees the chain leaving, and asks it to wait.
-ILU Luffy
-A Hody Jones Appeared!
-with his rape face on.
! Hody : "Everywhere I look, the whole world around me is engulfed in ocean...A "human who can't
even breathe underwater...can't ever possibly become king of the ocean!!! NOW BEND OVER, YOU
INFERIOR BEING!!!"
! -Elsewhere, VD is continuing to chase shirahoboobs
-Really, VD is one resilient stalker. He should be in The Guinness Book of World Records.
! VD : "HAHAHA! HOWS YOUR FREEDOM MY PRETTY~! WILL YOU DIE OF "PWIFF"ing BLOOD
OR A GIANT SHIP CRASHING INTO YOU~?! I WILL GIVE YOU ONE LAST CHANCE! SAY "yes<3" AND
I'LL SAVE YOU~<3"
! -you know who VD reminds me of? Frollo. From Hunchback of Notre Dame. Same game.
! VD/Frollo : "BE MINE!!!!"
Shirahoshi/
Esmeralda : "GO AWAY PERVERT YOU ARE NOT MY TYPE!!!!!"
VD/Frollo : "THEN DIIIIIIIIIE~"
! I can hear the lyrics to "hellfire" in my head right now. Don't know what i'm talking about? shame on you!
youtube it!
! -VD throws a bunch of knives, but they get blocked by 2 of the 3 princes
-one of them yells that papa fish says its "unforgivable to damage Noah" so they have to protect it.
-so they decide that the only place the ark wont be beaten up by the ocean floor is....the surface of the
ocean.
-makes sense.
! -We pan to Luffy and Hody. Luffy got saved by the eldest of the 3 princes. Hody smiles... smirks... grins...
i never know when the character's teeth are that sharp and he HAS NO EYEBROWS OMG I JUST
NOTICED
-Hody pulls out a huge scythe blade. Out of his ass, apparently, because i don't remember that being
anywhere near him. Correct me if I'm wrong.
-He puts it ...on his dorsal fin i think. Either that or he just ripped out his dorsal fin, threw it in the ocean,
and hot-glued the scythe blade to his back in the middle of the ocean.
-He then turns into a Formula one car.
-A formula one car with a scythe blade.
-A formula one car with a scythe blade 10,000 meters under the sea that is capable of cutting rocks
and a very big fish's head.
-poor fish.
-Luffy and prince run away
! Luffy : "Hey, get me to the deck of that ship! I really wanna beat up "hody" and "that guy that
throws a bunch of shit everywhere!!"
! -ILU Luffy X2
! -Luffy and fish prince talk about protecting boobhoshi, promises- Hody shows up and says he'll just go on ahead to the deck.
-Boobhoshi is swimming to the skies, with a giant ship hot on her trail. or tail. whichever you prefer.
! -On Noah, Hody finally reaches the deck and meets with VD.
-VD acts all friendly with Hody, as if he wasnt gonna squish him to death a couple of moments before.
-Hody has his confusing smile/grin/smirk on. Again, can't tell. Then HE STABS VD IN THE STOMACH.
-ow.
-Then Hody, like the psychic fish he is, asks a question humans on AP forum have been asking as well.
! Hody : " If you die...what would happen to the ship?"
! - CHAPTER END
! ~#$%** crazy dabble **%$#~
! VD : " LIKE FIRE~ DARK FIRE~ THIS BURNING IN MY SKIN-
Hody : Stabs
Hody : " If you die...what would happen to the ship?"
VD : "HA...HHHAA....!!? HAAAAAAAAAAOW WOULD I KNOW I WOULD BE DEAD!!! YOU
RUINED MY SONG YOU ASS!!and heres a second serving if you liked the first.
! ONE PIECE 637
! "An ancient ark" OR "Hody gets fucked, commits Grand Theft Ark-o"
! -Dr. Kureha (A.K.A 141 year old badass) is standing in front of Wapol's a-certain-person-recognized-by-
the-world-government-and-is-now-an-evil-king-on-another-island's castle, and the isshi- 100.
! -awesome virgin flower grandma is now wearing leather with flame patterns. She's so hot that there's
probably no snow under her feet.
! -She's also wearing a t-shirt with an X and a top hat!
! -Daaaw awesome granny is a softy <3
! -A flag with the same symbol is behind her, along with chopper's jolly roger on the castle as well.
! -cant wait for Alabasta covers, maybe they will show what Croc's been up to fingers crossed
! ONWARD TO BEGINNING OF CHA-PE-TAR
! -NFP are in awe. Rightfully so.
! fodder-fish 1 : "Holy crap the steroids aren't working for Hody!"
fodder-fish 2 : "NO WAIT, LOOK! its a bird…its a plane...its...!!!"
! -a fish.
! Hody : "ROOOOOOAAAAAR!!!"
! -wait a sec... fish roar? that isn't right. they don't roar.....do they...?
! Luffy : "daaaaamn you don't die do you. You're built like a damn tank!"
Hody : "DO YOU KNOW WHAT FISHMAN KARATE IS??!?!?!?!!
! -says the guy fish bleeding all over himself.
! Luffy : "..."
! -Hody punches luffy in the face
! fodder-fish : "OMG is punch is so powerful it blew his head awa-"
Luffy : " not gonna work. 'cuz im rubber 8D"
! -this moment is just awesome, i can practically visualize the animated scene with Luffy's "Gomu dakara"
-also seriously? that's his fish-a-te moves? Jinbe wasn't kidding when he said Hody was a noob.
-Speaking of Jinbei, where is he? Meh. Probably choking someone.
-Luffy uses CoA haki, his forehead turns all black and shiny
! Hody : "ah fuck, IRON SHELL DIVISION ! PROTECT MEEEE"
fodder fishies "Ha! Go ahead! your head will smash open!"
Luffy : "KANE!!!!!"
! -Luffy KOs fishy and proceeds to make wonderful face print art at the same time
! Iron < Luffy's head
! -i knew Luffy was a hardheaded kid but this is just ridiculous. Deliciously ridiculous.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 1
! -Luffy grins while wiping dirt off his forehead with his thumb, which only luffy could make look so damn
cool. Again, i want to see that animated. And make it a GIF. And make it my avatar. To watch on loop
forever.
! -Hody tries to bring in a good kick, looking really weird in the process. Seriously his arm looks out of
place. Wouldn't it fit better if his arm was up high or to his sides? I don't think that pose is very balanced.
! But whatever.
I'll blame it on the drugs.
! -Luffy notices Hody and CoAs his arm
! -Luffy uses his arm to stop steroid-fish's kick, looking damn good in the process
! Hody : " GWAAAAAAH!!!"
fodder fish : "GWAAAAAAAH!?????"
! -Luffy's so awesome even him on defense hurts.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 2
! -Luffy CoAs his legs, jumps up, practically looks like he is break-dancing midair, and stomps Hody on
the head
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 3
! -Hody, pissed, tries to hit luffy with his water balls of doom
! Hody "YABUSAME!!!!!"
Luffy "…"
! -Luffy dodges every one of them like a boss.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT: 4
! -luffy pulls back a punch with CoA and lands it square onto Hody's stomach......with a HUFFFF.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 5
! -Hody actually looks like a fish now. seriously look. His eyes are puffy and his lips look like they are
in a position to kiss at anytime. Sure he's spitting out blood, but at least he looks like what he loves now.
! -Also, this chapter has a lot of "Hody tries" in them. Poor fishy.
! -Luffy's punch sends hody flying. silly luffy. fish aren't supposed to fly. They're supposed to be fried.
-Surume is awestruck, along with Shirahoshi (A.K.A. Giant-Boobs), all of the fish-people, and whoever is
reading this chapter.
! Random-fish : "So this is ...the true strength of these world famous pirates!!"
! -I got the shivers. Not so much of what random fish said, as much as the fact that we probably haven't
seen anything yet.
! -All of a sudden the plaza gets dark
! Fishdom : "DRAGON BALLS?!?!"
! -no. just a giant boat.
...
.........
HOLY SHIT THATS BIG.
HOLY...
And here i thought maybe luffy can giant bazooka it out of way.
That boat is the size of HALF THE DAMN ISLAND.
....
..
GOD THATS BIG.
..
And drawn pretty-ly.
! -Ok so ...people...fish.... fishle are yelling out how Noah is gonna blast away the place because its gonna
burst the bubble holding FI together
! Luffy : "??"
! -A huge ship is crashing down (is slow motion, but still crashing down) on him and all he can muster
up is two question marks. ILU Luffy.
! Nami : "WTH IS THAT"
Franky : "?!"
Jinbei : "wanna see how i choke peop- BWAAA?! NOAH!!?"
! -Fodder-fishys exclaim the obvious, and ask questions we know the answers to.
! Brook : "Wha~t is tha~t?!"
Chopper : "ITS HU~GE....!!!.....!!!"
! -Why so many dots Oda?
! Mansopp : "I HAVE NO IDEA WHATS GOING ON!!! because you are manly, usopp. BUT WE ARE DOOMED!!!
Robin : "If all of us were smashed at once, the ocean would probably be dyed red."
! -Robin, I could put you in a room full of angst-y emo teenagers dressed in black from head to converse-
wearing toes and horrendous make-up from ear to ear whom make it their life's only calling to be
completely miserable and hate the world, and they would all look like happy preppy school children
compared to you. You morbid woman you.
! -Fishdom start to run evacuate.
! -Zoro looks up at the giant boat falling down on him while holding off a fodder fish. Seriously he is so
calm, all that's left is for him to do is start sipping a cup of tea with his free hand.
! -Sanji actually looks worried. Well, more annoyed then worried.

fodderfish : "SHIRAHOSHIS GONE!"
Jinbei + VD : " WHA~?!?!"
Big Boobs : " I'm over here!!"

! ===========================
! ~#$%** crazy dabble **%$#~
! HODY : " VD YOU BASTARD ! YOU HAVE 3 ASSES!! TWO UNDER YOUR BELT,
AND ONE ON YOUR FACE!!!"
! VD : " SHUT UP!!! YOUR JUST JEALOUS I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND!!!"
! HODY : "YOU ARE NOT HER BOYFRIEND, YOU'RE HER STALKER! SINCE SHE WAS 6!
PEDO-SQUID!"
! VD : " LALALALALA I CANT HEAR YOU!!!"
! VIVI : "PLEASE STOP FIGHTING"If i wanna put these in a thread, where would i put it under?
Well, I had more fun reading this than from the last chapters.
Either you have a great sense of humor or the manga has become really boring. Could be both.
- Hody shows up and says he'll just go on ahead to the deck.
-
-Hody pulls out a huge scythe blade. Out of his ass, apparently, because i don't remember that being
anywhere near him. Correct me if I'm wrong.you can see the sheath of the blade in hody's back in the last panel of the chapter 637
-
I really can't understand people complaining Hodi is faster then a mermaid.
Just think of it:
Mermaids are like black people.
Fishman are like white people
(no racism intended)
Now, everyone knows black people always win the races, just check the last world championship.
But if there was a White man, who was really into doping, wouldn't he be able to win??JUST THAT. Mermaids>Fishman underwater, in most cases, but there are allways strong fishman who are slower than weak mermaids. I mean, would you like if Jinbei was slower than random mermaid nr1?
BTW, I did start reading again, couldn't wait till the arc is over… But I still think its foolish when people say the chapter didn't advance... I mean, all stories are meant as a whole, and I believe its better to have pure setup chapters with nothing happening but putting characters in their respective places, than having things like (for example) Bleach, were characters jump from one place to another without explanation, and right after an arc ends, another starts out. No chapters without battles, it feels pretty boring. Yet, the same bleach, early on, had a lot of setup chapters, and silly things, and it was really enjoyable, take for instances that little arc before the hueco mundo, with the arrancars "invading" the earth.
Now, most of you seem to want Oda to do what Kubo did, to cutoff everything "unnecessary" and just jump to the important. But I'm sorry dudes, that would not be One Piece.
-
This reminds me so much of the Thriller Bark chapter threads.
This arc really is Skypiea/Thriller Bark, except underwater.
-
Well, seeing a bunch of people aren't happy with the chapter, here's a little something to brighten up your moods hopefully!
Here's a Mock-review for all of you

! I can hear the lyrics to "hellfire" in my head right now. Don't know what i'm talking about? shame on you!
youtube it!
! -VD throws a bunch of knives, but they get blocked by 2 of the 3 princes
-one of them yells that papa fish says its "unforgivable to damage Noah" so they have to protect it.
-so they decide that the only place the ark wont be beaten up by the ocean floor is....the surface of the
ocean.
-makes sense.
! -We pan to Luffy and Hody. Luffy got saved by the eldest of the 3 princes. Hody smiles... smirks... grins...
i never know when the character's teeth are that sharp and he HAS NO EYEBROWS OMG I JUST
NOTICED
-Hody pulls out a huge scythe blade. Out of his ass, apparently, because i don't remember that being
anywhere near him. Correct me if I'm wrong.
-He puts it ...on his dorsal fin i think. Either that or he just ripped out his dorsal fin, threw it in the ocean,
and hot-glued the scythe blade to his back in the middle of the ocean.
-He then turns into a Formula one car.
-A formula one car with a scythe blade.
-A formula one car with a scythe blade 10,000 meters under the sea that is capable of cutting rocks
and a very big fish's head.
-poor fish.
-Luffy and prince run away
! Luffy : "Hey, get me to the deck of that ship! I really wanna beat up "hody" and "that guy that
throws a bunch of shit everywhere!!"
! -ILU Luffy X2
! -Luffy and fish prince talk about protecting boobhoshi, promises- Hody shows up and says he'll just go on ahead to the deck.
-Boobhoshi is swimming to the skies, with a giant ship hot on her trail. or tail. whichever you prefer.
! -On Noah, Hody finally reaches the deck and meets with VD.
-VD acts all friendly with Hody, as if he wasnt gonna squish him to death a couple of moments before.
-Hody has his confusing smile/grin/smirk on. Again, can't tell. Then HE STABS VD IN THE STOMACH.
-ow.
-Then Hody, like the psychic fish he is, asks a question humans on AP forum have been asking as well.
! Hody : " If you die...what would happen to the ship?"
! - CHAPTER END
! ~#$%** crazy dabble **%$#~
! VD : " LIKE FIRE~ DARK FIRE~ THIS BURNING IN MY SKIN-
Hody : Stabs
Hody : " If you die...what would happen to the ship?"
VD : "HA...HHHAA....!!? HAAAAAAAAAAOW WOULD I KNOW I WOULD BE DEAD!!! YOU
RUINED MY SONG YOU ASS!!and heres a second serving if you liked the first.
! ONE PIECE 637
! "An ancient ark" OR "Hody gets fucked, commits Grand Theft Ark-o"
! -Dr. Kureha (A.K.A 141 year old badass) is standing in front of Wapol's a-certain-person-recognized-by-
the-world-government-and-is-now-an-evil-king-on-another-island's castle, and the isshi- 100.
! -awesome virgin flower grandma is now wearing leather with flame patterns. She's so hot that there's
probably no snow under her feet.
! -She's also wearing a t-shirt with an X and a top hat!
! -Daaaw awesome granny is a softy <3
! -A flag with the same symbol is behind her, along with chopper's jolly roger on the castle as well.
! -cant wait for Alabasta covers, maybe they will show what Croc's been up to fingers crossed
! ONWARD TO BEGINNING OF CHA-PE-TAR
! -NFP are in awe. Rightfully so.
! fodder-fish 1 : "Holy crap the steroids aren't working for Hody!"
fodder-fish 2 : "NO WAIT, LOOK! its a bird…its a plane...its...!!!"
! -a fish.
! Hody : "ROOOOOOAAAAAR!!!"
! -wait a sec... fish roar? that isn't right. they don't roar.....do they...?
! Luffy : "daaaaamn you don't die do you. You're built like a damn tank!"
Hody : "DO YOU KNOW WHAT FISHMAN KARATE IS??!?!?!?!!
! -says the guy fish bleeding all over himself.
! Luffy : "..."
! -Hody punches luffy in the face
! fodder-fish : "OMG is punch is so powerful it blew his head awa-"
Luffy : " not gonna work. 'cuz im rubber 8D"
! -this moment is just awesome, i can practically visualize the animated scene with Luffy's "Gomu dakara"
-also seriously? that's his fish-a-te moves? Jinbe wasn't kidding when he said Hody was a noob.
-Speaking of Jinbei, where is he? Meh. Probably choking someone.
-Luffy uses CoA haki, his forehead turns all black and shiny
! Hody : "ah fuck, IRON SHELL DIVISION ! PROTECT MEEEE"
fodder fishies "Ha! Go ahead! your head will smash open!"
Luffy : "KANE!!!!!"
! -Luffy KOs fishy and proceeds to make wonderful face print art at the same time
! Iron < Luffy's head
! -i knew Luffy was a hardheaded kid but this is just ridiculous. Deliciously ridiculous.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 1
! -Luffy grins while wiping dirt off his forehead with his thumb, which only luffy could make look so damn
cool. Again, i want to see that animated. And make it a GIF. And make it my avatar. To watch on loop
forever.
! -Hody tries to bring in a good kick, looking really weird in the process. Seriously his arm looks out of
place. Wouldn't it fit better if his arm was up high or to his sides? I don't think that pose is very balanced.
! But whatever.
I'll blame it on the drugs.
! -Luffy notices Hody and CoAs his arm
! -Luffy uses his arm to stop steroid-fish's kick, looking damn good in the process
! Hody : " GWAAAAAAH!!!"
fodder fish : "GWAAAAAAAH!?????"
! -Luffy's so awesome even him on defense hurts.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 2
! -Luffy CoAs his legs, jumps up, practically looks like he is break-dancing midair, and stomps Hody on
the head
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 3
! -Hody, pissed, tries to hit luffy with his water balls of doom
! Hody "YABUSAME!!!!!"
Luffy "…"
! -Luffy dodges every one of them like a boss.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT: 4
! -luffy pulls back a punch with CoA and lands it square onto Hody's stomach......with a HUFFFF.
LUFFY OWNAGE COUNT : 5
! -Hody actually looks like a fish now. seriously look. His eyes are puffy and his lips look like they are
in a position to kiss at anytime. Sure he's spitting out blood, but at least he looks like what he loves now.
! -Also, this chapter has a lot of "Hody tries" in them. Poor fishy.
! -Luffy's punch sends hody flying. silly luffy. fish aren't supposed to fly. They're supposed to be fried.
-Surume is awestruck, along with Shirahoshi (A.K.A. Giant-Boobs), all of the fish-people, and whoever is
reading this chapter.
! Random-fish : "So this is ...the true strength of these world famous pirates!!"
! -I got the shivers. Not so much of what random fish said, as much as the fact that we probably haven't
seen anything yet.
! -All of a sudden the plaza gets dark
! Fishdom : "DRAGON BALLS?!?!"
! -no. just a giant boat.
...
.........
HOLY SHIT THATS BIG.
HOLY...
And here i thought maybe luffy can giant bazooka it out of way.
That boat is the size of HALF THE DAMN ISLAND.
....
..
GOD THATS BIG.
..
And drawn pretty-ly.
! -Ok so ...people...fish.... fishle are yelling out how Noah is gonna blast away the place because its gonna
burst the bubble holding FI together
! Luffy : "??"
! -A huge ship is crashing down (is slow motion, but still crashing down) on him and all he can muster
up is two question marks. ILU Luffy.
! Nami : "WTH IS THAT"
Franky : "?!"
Jinbei : "wanna see how i choke peop- BWAAA?! NOAH!!?"
! -Fodder-fishys exclaim the obvious, and ask questions we know the answers to.
! Brook : "Wha~t is tha~t?!"
Chopper : "ITS HU~GE....!!!.....!!!"
! -Why so many dots Oda?
! Mansopp : "I HAVE NO IDEA WHATS GOING ON!!! because you are manly, usopp. BUT WE ARE DOOMED!!!
Robin : "If all of us were smashed at once, the ocean would probably be dyed red."
! -Robin, I could put you in a room full of angst-y emo teenagers dressed in black from head to converse-
wearing toes and horrendous make-up from ear to ear whom make it their life's only calling to be
completely miserable and hate the world, and they would all look like happy preppy school children
compared to you. You morbid woman you.
! -Fishdom start to run evacuate.
! -Zoro looks up at the giant boat falling down on him while holding off a fodder fish. Seriously he is so
calm, all that's left is for him to do is start sipping a cup of tea with his free hand.
! -Sanji actually looks worried. Well, more annoyed then worried.
! -Shira-boobs is shocked. But then again, when isn't she.
! -Suddenly, a hairy thing falls.
! -Awesome entrance by Wadatsumi.
! -But, I wonder why did the disgustingly adorable giant fish creature fall?
! -He slipped.
! -Ok.
! -…
! Wadaidiot : "Ouchie i slipped~!! Capp'n vanner nekken i feeeell doooooooown weent booooom!! Stop
da shiiiiip pweeeaase~!!
! -Oh wow. I'm not sure how to react to this ...thing taking all baby-like. Should i puke, or shoot out
rainbows out my cheeks?
! -Probably both.
! -fish-fodder ask their captain if the fact that there is a giant half-island sized ship crashing down on them
about to kill them all was a part of his plan.
! -...
! Hody : "SHUT UP U USELESS IDIOTS"
! -indeed.
! Hody : "DAMN THAT STRAW HAT AND HIS MIND BOGGLING AWESOMENESS!!!!!"
Luffy : "That fish is one tough bastard!"
Hody : " DECKEN U CRAZY-ASS PIRATE"
! -Well... seeing as he actually has 4 legs...he would have a crazy ass wouldn't he.
! Hody : "THIS WASNT ANYWHERE IN OUT PLAN!!!"
! -No shit.
! VD : " BAHOHOHO!!! Wadatsumi~! I AINT SAVING U BECAUSE IM AN ASS!!!! insert devil fruit
explanation here IM GONNA SACRIFICE YOU~!!! AND KILL BIG-BOOBS!!!!"
Wadatsumi : "doh!"
Jinbei : "Princess big boo- Shirahoshi?! Impossible! So he used his DF power to kill her becuase
of that unholy rejection that no man would ever get over?! You know, now that i think about
it you were a bit harsh on him shiraho-"
fodderfish : "SHIRAHOSHIS GONE!"
Jinbei + VD : " WHA~?!?!"
Big Boobs : " I'm over here!!"
! -So we turn the page to see a lovely 2 page spread.
! -Big Boobs escaped to the air to redirect the ark's movement.
! VD : "Ooooooh~! My beloved that im going to kill !!!!
shirahoshiboobs : "im your target right ?! then just take my life alone! don't involve anyfish
else!!! IF YOU WANT ME IM RIGHT HERE"
! -bad choice of words, but i'll move on.
! - fishdom yell about their princess and her sacrifice. She's mirroring her mother more and more.
Pretty good character development on her part.
! -VD gets creepy…er
-Hody gets pissy...er
! Hody : "VD U 2 ASSED BASTARD!!!!"
VD : "DIE MY BELOVED THAT I HAVE STALKED SINCE THE AGE OF 6!!!!"
! -VD throws a knife her way and it stabs her. where? i dunno. I just know that its in proximity
of her left shoulder. And that she's bleeding.
! -Ark starts to turn away
! Luffy : "That weakhoshi! I told her to stay close! My badassery would have protected her!"
! -Hody pulls a Houdini and ends up on one of Noah's chains.
! -Here we have another 2 page spread, and my favorite of the chapter
! -I get a giddy feeling whenever i see Oda pulling off his signature "lines-get-darker-and-thicker-as-
they-get-closer-to-you" move. The perspective in this panel is amazing and-
IM MILLY : "makes me WET!"
-yes. I'm Milly. Youtube it.
! Hody : "YOU 2 ASSED ASS. Well whatever, I'm using this against you!"
! -Sanji didn't miss a beat, he's already, literally, flying toward the ladies.
! Luffy : " SANJI! WAIT! I WANNA GO! YOU STAY!"
Sanji : "FINE! but wont u drown?"
Luffy : "JINBE!!"
Jinbei : "!???"
Luffy : "will i drown?"
Jinbei : "........i have no idea. but VD is a DF user, so there's gotta be air! but take this
anyway!"
! -Jinbei gives luffy a bubble making coral.
! -Luffy grabs onto SuperSanji's leg
! SANJI : " IM ENTRUSTING BEAUTIFUL BIG BOO-SHIRAHOSHI TO YOU! READY FOR
LAUNCH?!
LUFFY : " TAKE ME THERE"
! -chapter END
-oh look its a sunny snow globe!
! ===========================
! ~#$%** crazy dabble **%$#~
! HODY : " VD YOU BASTARD ! YOU HAVE 3 ASSES!! TWO UNDER YOUR BELT,
AND ONE ON YOUR FACE!!!"
! VD : " SHUT UP!!! YOUR JUST JEALOUS I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND!!!"
! HODY : "YOU ARE NOT HER BOYFRIEND, YOU'RE HER STALKER! SINCE SHE WAS 6!
PEDO-SQUID!"
! VD : " LALALALALA I CANT HEAR YOU!!!"
! VIVI : "PLEASE STOP FIGHTING"If i wanna put these in a thread, where would i put it under?
Please, PLEASE do this for every chapter! Your cynisism is really awesome! (I'm in of a new thread with only your mocking reviews!) Kudo's for you mate!
- Hody shows up and says he'll just go on ahead to the deck.

You know I have no problem with people criticizing One Piece for some flaws but most of what i'm reading are flaws that ARE One Piece. Everyones got an opinion but I honestly can't understand how a good majority of you have gone through 637 chapters of this manga and complain about said fact. It just makes no sense to me.
I feel that most of the complainers of this arc are bandwagon marineford fans. Period.
(Don't get me wrong, the Sanji blood nose thing, the pacing, all arn't great. But besides those there is nothing wrong with this arc. Its One Piece (and though every arc is great, they each do have some minor or somewhat major issue))
-
That shit was awesome and funny, keep up the good work!
Thank you! I will!
Well, I had more fun reading this than from the last chapters.
Either you have a great sense of humor or the manga has become really boring. Could be both.
Thanks! Honestly I didn't think the mock-review for chapter 638 would turn out to be funny because of the chapter's contents, but I think it turned out pretty good in the end :)
you can see the sheath of the blade in hody's back in the last panel of the chapter 637
Ah, i see! Thanks for pointing it out :)
@Qon:
Please, PLEASE do this for every chapter! Your cynisism is really awesome! (I'm in of a new thread with only your mocking reviews!) Kudo's for you mate!
Thanks for the praise! I'll open up a thread and post these right away. Look forward to the next chapter's mock-review ;)
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Ah. I can't create threads yet apparently. Shame...really wanted to...BUT! For those of you who are interested, look forward to the next chapter's review in the next chapter discussion!

This is something I can really simpatize with.
I actually tought the nosebleeds were funny, I laughed at every single one.
The pacing I think was never that different, exception beeing the war.It was allways a slow~~~ pace, with lots and lots of jokes in the middle. And thats what I like.
I think the only flaw this arc has is the abrupt changes… I mean, Luffy kicked Hodi, and then the ark appeared. I think it should have appeared in the chapter after that, and have that one ending with the fighting bit...
I know it was for the cliffhanger, but I think it made it worse. :/Really, thats the only complain I have.
-
Really OP fans just need more patience in general. I think Oda's spoiled us into expecting more and more, when he's still just a single dude that can't think of everything and can't please everyone. And that feeling or assessment is only going to intensify with time.

Im a huge OP fan. I admit at times I do take Oda work for granted and expect greatness gor every chapter. It just Oda set such a high standard for his work and we hold him to it regaurdless of time it takes to develope an arc.
