Obligatory "I wish 'We Go' would get the hell out of town already" post of the week. Why do the worst openings last the longest? (Believe, We Go)

Is it just me or is the thread really slow this week

Is it just me or is the thread really slow this week
People are just disappointed by Toei's decision to botch the personality-switch.. I highly doubt Oda will create another opportunity like this again in the future…
The rest of the episode was decent, the animation was well done and the rape-faces were great... but the anime had a chance to transcend mediocrity and it didn't take it
-
This episode was actually pretty good. Some good filler with the strawhats fighting the centars, Law's moves were done well, and the animation was decent. Even the pacing wasn't half bad this week.
Shame about the voice swapping, though. They really could've had more fun with it, but oh well.
-
Let's get the disappointments out of the way.
-No new opening. Not surprised.
-Padded out Brownbeard stuff. Not surprised at all.
-Luffy, Zoro, and Robin acting super incompetent by using their ranged attacks so late.
-Swapped voices… -_______-Besides those four things, this was a fairly good episode.
A cool entrance by Brook, neat animation and art, Brownbeard-sama.....sama.....sama.......,disturbing SH rape faces, and awesome Law moments.
I'd say the good outweigh the bad by a decent margin. -
While I would have loved the voices to be done 'properly' I gotta admit, there's something hilarious about hearing Nami's dulcet tones coming from Franky. Same with Choppers voice coming from Sanji. ^.^
But man, they did miss out on a pretty cool "I'm not a Racoon, damnit!" line. You'd think Franky would know not to call Chopper one by now, eh?Hm… and Law the aspiring artiste~ He needs to work on his sculptures, but I guess he's got talent in the flesh and bones categories. XD
-
Man, i was so looking forward to see Nami trying to sound like Sanji, etc. What a shame. I'm actually a little sad now.
-
Was that Film Z music at the end?
-
Well, it's a shame to say this, especially so soon.
Dropped until voices get switched back.
-
Lol at the unnecessary bitching. >Bitching about voices that aren't as bad as they make it seem >A rare few people have mentioned the episode itself >Bitching about the opening every single week,like,really?
-
They were so holding this episode for Sanji's birthday. Happy Birthday, you lucky perverted bastard!
-
Basically, Toei extends Zoro vs Hody but can't extend Law vs Tashigi (which would have been great).
Toei is faithful to the manga when I don't want it. F*** you Toei.
-
Here's another thing I need to "bitch" about this episode:
When Nami swaps into Franky's body… the First thing she notices is that her "breasts feel lighter"..... like seriously? She didn't notice the weight of Franky's FUCKING HUGE ARMS? What is this show teaching kids :(
They were so holding this episode for Sanji's birthday. Happy Birthday, you lucky perverted bastard!
That is a cool coincidence. Sanji got the bday gift of his dreams

Don't encourage more stupid censorship. It is a freaking mess in the states and it almost killed One Piece with 4kids.

It's Sanji's birthday today?
lol, how appropriate.

Bitching about people bitching about the episode.
-
Man, lol, I can see the anime is doing a great job in not wanting me to start watching it again.
Seriously, I know i'm continuing the broken record but… maaaaaaan... what a wasted opportunity.
What One Piece fan would not enjoy something like that? Hearing Kazuki Yao impersonating Nami? I would have been in stitches.

Maybe, they wanted the kids watching the show to avoid confusions.
-
I bet the kids are disappointed too.
If they're confused, then they need to work on their fandom… and do better in school.
-
-No new opening. Again. Bleh.
-Toei took the idiotic route for the voices even though it doesn't save them any money. Bleh.
-Law's powers made overly cartoony. Bleh.Other than that a very nice episode. I really enjoyed the first half.
-

It's been a long time since I was a lil' kid but unless they're in the toddler stage (are really young kids a significant part of the viewing audience for the adaptation?) I can't imagine them being that confused.
They even spell out who switched with who in a roll-call like one minute after the fact. -
Basically, Toei extends Zoro vs Hody but can't extend Law vs Tashigi (which would have been great).
That would've been, almost literally, beating a dead horse.
-
Uh, dude, as a woman with rather large breasts, you'd better be sure I'd notice them missing like POW!!!
They weigh you down a lot more than you'd think. Besides, Franky's body is used to lugging his arms around so they'd most likely just feel like arms in that body. Breasts, though, are not native so she'd feel strange just missing gravity pulling her body forward. Trust me. -
I really liked this episode. Maybe because I've long dropped my standards – but that's a like nonetheless.
Kudos on stretching the events of one or two pages into three episodes and managing to make it mildly entertaining, Toei. The first half with Brownbeard and Brook were excellent. Filler done right; we need more like that.The heart swapping was a huge disappointment, though. They definitely took the easier route on that one. But at least we now know Nami weighs her body on tit pounds - that's a relief. Not sure what they plan to do with them by running back into the building and getting their swaps in there.. but okay.
The Law and Smoker stuff was .. enjoyable. Coming from a person who doesn't enjoy either characters. It was animated pretty well, I thought.They're definitely waiting on "Master" and Monet's full reveal to do the opening. Maybe even the V-Man, but not likely.
But who cares, we get to keep seeing qtpa2t sexxi Hody and Decken and Neptune every week.~ <<33 ^ 3~ ilu -
Except for the voice botch, I enjoyed the episode. Brook's entrance was cool (pun so intended_)_ and Law showing those Marines how real men play Tetris! I can't believe we have to wait a whole two weeks for the continuation of this fight!
-
Wait, wasn't the voice swapping originally planned out to begin with?
-
Toei deserves to get bitchslapped for still using this awful song. What is wrong with them?

Breasts, though, are not native so she'd feel strange just missing gravity pulling her body forward. Trust me.regardless of gender I'm pretty sure you'd notice 300lb arms before your breasts. And honestly Franky's chest is bigger than Nami's anyways lol

Hahahaha, Toei made him the strongest instead of the weakest.
-

Yes, but Franky's body is used to it's own weight so it wouldn't really register. Nami's mind would be pushing the body backwards to counteract a weight that is no longer there - she would notice the lack of a large weight pulling her forward.
Frankly, unless you have large breasts yourself, you really can't judge that as non-noticeable. If the lack of weight doesn't get you, the lack of something getting in the way of your arm movements would.
-
You guys expect too much from Toei that now you're very disappointed.
-
Wait, wasn't the voice swapping originally planned out to begin with?
Most people expected the voices wouldn't change, but maybe this is actually how Oda had it in mind…we'll probably never know.
-
-
Holy shit @ those rape faces! O_O
Anyway, despite the flaws, the episode was alright.
-
@Mark:

Honestly I don't think it was too much to expect them to have their voice actors,imitate other characters in their crew. They really did botch that up. I'm pretty sure we can all unanimously agree on that.
@goty:Most people expected the voices wouldn't change, but maybe this is actually how Oda had it in mind…we'll probably never know.
Pretty much this. Maybe oda himself told them that was okay.
-

Thing is, if their voices had swapped instead of staying the same, Usopp wouldn't need to draw masks to tell them apart. There would be no confusion.
I really don't see WHY they'll get confused over this; it'll be really weird and unneeded when that inevitably happens. -
In recent memory, Futurama also did this ‘voice goes with you when you change bodies’ thing.
There must be a thought that it won’t be obvious enough to the audience.

Yeah but sometimes the other way can be even worse - especially when you have to change genders.
It is 100% better in live action if the voice changes but is rarely ever done ending up with people trying to just act like the person they swap with which in my opinion is always the worst option.With animation it's a little weirder because the characters are drawn to match the voices - granted that One Piece has been on for a while and unless the voice actors themselves had not had the confidence to impersonate the others (which I highly doubt) it just seems that it was done to alleviate any confusion to the people watching.
-
I'm still not understanding how on earth the anime adaptation's audience could be profoundly confused by this event
-
any wild guesses what he wants
except for the truth..! ex. sad or to take smo-yan's heart
i say he wants the bitch from shc -
This episode was pretty good besides the voices. They're really making Law come off as fucking creepy which I like.
-
I thought it was one of the better episodes myself. Luffy yelling give me your clothes and their whole evil scene was great, as well as the reactions of the crew and sanji once they noticed the switch. There were also some nice moments with law and his powers, that void like sound and music they played for it was perfect. But like the rest of you i do believe they made easily one of the biggest mistakes in recent memory by not making the actors imitate the other characters, i mean what the hell? We get them doing it for the fake straw hats yet somehow we dont get it here?
-
Great episode, I liked this one much.
-
Well it was an good episode, aside from the FUCKING VOICE SWAPPING THINGY YOU FUCKING COCKSUCKING TOEI YOU FUCKING MORON!
Ahem… :ninja:
Law's parts were just golden. Especially when the G-5 noted him making art structure from their ship.
I actually love how Usopp wonders how there is sharks in a lake. Like the lake sharks are the strangest. fucking. thing that they have ever encountered on their journey.
Nami first notices that her breasts feel lighter. Makes you wonder how much they usually weight. I would almost feel bad for her but
…big boobs! :ninja:Can't wait for the next ep!
-
Pretty good episode in parts. Didn't like the Brownbeard filler (glad that's finally over with) but did enjoy the Franky filler and the added scenes of the Strawhats discovering their personality switch. Got a laugh out of Nami first noticing something's amiss when she realizes that she's not hauling around her two ton melons. Artwork was great for the most part with decent some animation.
They went all-out on those "creepy faces" the Strawhats have before fighting Brownbeards crew. Even more unsettling than the manga
!
When Nami swaps into Franky's body… the First thing she notices is that her "breasts feel lighter"..... like seriously? She didn't notice the weight of Franky's FUCKING HUGE ARMS? What is this show teaching kids :(
That they normally take up a considerable amount of her body weight. Also, considering how much Nami has to subconsciously adjust her center of gravity to compensate being so heavily front-loaded, Franky's cybernetic stabilizers were the only thing keeping Nami from falling on her ass when the switch was done.

The scenaristic adaptation's quality is dropping like a stone in water….
--- Update From New Post Merge ---
We've already had 30 min of the invented Straw Hat getting shot at for hours on a boat scene... WTF ???? at this point I'd rather have fillers.
-
To accomodate one chapter of manga in one episode they sacrifice the quality of anime. At 19:05 tashigi runs towards law in a ridiculously very slow pace (i can run faster than that), note that tashigi is a soru user, even her normal running speed should be very fast. But they did so to add just few seconds more.They would definitely spoil the great action between law and smoker in the next eopisode which was very fast paced action in manga. Also i doubt that law can create two rooms at the same time, in manga he shambled personalities while they were still in the room created for G5.
