:blink: What is going to happen? Right now Japan is at the part where we find out Kokoro is a mermaid… but that happened in like chapter 420... At the rate this is going at by June we are going to be at the Florian Triangle Arc. What is going to happen once the Anime is further than the Manga? :wassat: Are they going to cancel it for a while to wait for it to catch up... or are they going to continue with the story with stuff that has never been released in manga form before?
Coming up chapters (manga spoilers)
-
-
They will probably finish Ennies Lobby then do about 2 or 3 filler arcs.
-
Why do you all keep saying this? The anime isn't anywhere near the manga. You know Toei will streach out the Blackbeard and Ace thing to 5 episodes, and the party to about 10.
-
They are about, what, 30 chapters apart? That's roughtly 15 episodes, but if Toei keeps dragging things out (which of course they will ) it'll probably be 20-25 more episodes between now and where we are currently in the Manga.
Basically, we have about 25 episodes until we reach where we currently are in the manga if they stretch everything out. That's not a whole lot. Of course we will have a filler or two after Ennies Lobby.

@Lobster:

What are you talking about? I don't believe Toei ever stretched out a chapter for more than one full episode, and that includes filler in between.
I like the idea of there being fillers during the three days that Luffy is sleeping. There's open time there why not have Toei use it?
-

Um….it's less than a year behind the comic.
It takes several months to make an episode.
Back in December when I was at Jump Festa they were talking about scenes AFTER Enies Lobby that they'd already done readings for, if they weren't adding filler, by this point they wouldn't be close, they'd be royally fucked.

Please don't randomly spout spoilers without a warning for people who aren't reading the manga.
-
In fact Im pretty sure they have already finished or close to finishing the upcoming filler arcs
-
Sorry about spoilers. But still, the anime is going to have to eventually catch up… its not that much longer. I mean a chapter and an episode. The episode generally covers about 2-3 chapters, so not too much longer. They probaly will create a filler arc that will last about 20 episodes and 20 chapters so then the manga will be about 30-50 chapters ahead.
-
They can always do 3 filler arcs like Rainbow Mist, Goat Island, and the seprate episodes that focus on 1 character.
Or they could go on a head and animate the comic titles, Like jangos paradise(whatever it was called), and the rest of em.
-
The show could go on broadcast hiatus for a little while.
Toei could give us more installments of the Japangu stuff.
Let's also consider that the manga is on-going as well, which means 25 episodes from now we'll have another 25 chapters to be made into episodes. That does't do TOO much, but it's still something to consider.
We've got some ideal filler space already:
-Luffy was asleep for a while
-Several days were spent at Water 7 as they rested and stuff
-Possibly putting a filler arc before Thriller Bark. (rhyme!)
-They haven't animated a mini-arc in a while, but considering that Ace and BB come back into play soon, animating Ace's mini-arc would make alot of senseBasically they can easily solve this issue by giving us filler. Hopefully it'll only go on long enough to widen the gap again. (We don't want a Naruto filler type situation after all)
-
Oh I would love to see a filler based on a game!
-
Oh I would love to see a filler based on a game!
That already happened with the Lost Memories arc.
-

Am I weird for really liking the Jipangu stuff? :ninja: I get excited everytime when they have those episodes. At least they're kinda cuter and more amusing than the actual filler arcs.
Just wishful thinking, but I kinda hope they'd do a small series (filler arc-length, maybe) set in the Jipangu universe.
-
My ideal filler would be them animated the remaining cover stories. But clearly Toei doesn't wanna do that.
-
I'd like to see the animated cover stories too. Cannon at anytime is better than fillers. ;)
But why do you say so, Buuhan1? I heard that's cause Buggy's and Coby/Helmeppo's 2 eps didn't fare too well in the viewership ratings, is that true?
Well, I agree that some of those are pretty boring, but there are great ones too like Ace's and Miss Goldenweek's.. hope Toei can reconsider! -
I want Ace's and Ms. Goldenweeks and Buggy's. I mean, Ace is downright cool and its a good leadup for the fight between him and blackbeard. Ms. Goldenweek sort of shows what happened to the good people in Baroque Works. And last, Buggy hasnt been seen in ages.
-
We got Buggy's cover-story animated, it was the first one animated. It was right before Lougetown in the anime.
-
By the time Toei finishes Enies Lobby and the post-Enies Lobby cleanup, Eneru's cover story will probably be over. Hopefully we'll get a triplex of cover arc goodness: Baroque Works, Ace's Hunt for Blackbeard, and then Eneru's Space Conquest. And then maybe they'll move on to Thriller Bark.
-
Of all the cover arcs to get animated, the most likely is probably Ace since he ends up meeting up with Teach in the manga.
-
Speaking of cover arcs, first I agree that Ace's story would be a good prequel to his fight with Blackbeard. However, I think the cover story that has a great chance of being animated is Miss Goldenweeks. I mean, it has the characters from the best arc in it, so that should warrant it being animated despite the failings of the past animated cover arcs. That is unless the Baroque Works crew is extremely unpopular in Japan.
-
Miss GW's story should be given precedence, just for the sheer number of cameos it contains.
And yeah, it'd make sense for Ace's too be done too considering he'll be showing up again anyways.
-
I hope Toei doesnt change the scene with Franky getting his speedo stolen. That was hilarious.
-
@Skull:

Well, they had no problem showing Usopp and Luffy's asses in the bath scene, if I remember right. I wouldn't worry. Though if it does happen, I'd hope for good, Austin Powers-esqe censorship.

Well if you consider how good one piece has been in terms of filler
I can see them being more likely to stagger the release schedual rather then insert a giant filler arc (like naruto or bleach). But again there's also the posisbility they'll simply stretch out each chapter into a full episode (typically for most anime an episode is 2 or 3 chapters) which should widen the gap substantially. If there is a filler I can see it revolving around Franky so viewers can start to relate to him as a SH crew member. -
You know what? I would love to see more of Franky though. I know we saw Robin and Franky, but it would be cool to see more. Hmmm…....
-
They probably iwll show Franky w no pants on, but no in-front shots. It was really funny with that. I remember that one time at Baroque Works where Nami did Happiness Punch, there was a misdrawing where it showed a boob. I hope they don't misdraw the Franky scene.
-
What? It"s Really There?!?!?!?!?!?!? Gotta Go Check It Out Again!
-
I remember that one time at Baroque Works where Nami did Happiness Punch, there was a misdrawing where it showed a boob.
Is this the manga or anime? Because I think Nami only does that at the end of Arabasta, and it didn't show anything.
-
Just to be completely off topic, I can't wait to see Moria in the animé.
-
I agree that Toei mustn't stay that close to the manga, but judging the current stuff on Thriller Bark, I don't think they will get too close even after finishing Enies Lobby/Water 7.
Spoilers maybe? no?….. the next episode shall be Luffy defeating (right?) Lucci. Mmmmaybe they will show Merry quickly, or there will be another episode before Merry and the goodbye... there also shall be some 2 episodes, mixing the new ship and the revelation of Garp, Coby and Helmeppo... hmm. yeah then it'll be near Thriller Bark.
Or maybe I confused everything (more than I thought I would) and everything is wrong. Whoot.
-
I bet after Lucci dies which probably is the next episode. There gonna make the next episode drawl out about how Luffy can't move, then right at the end of the episode they jump into Merry. then the next episode is them escaping. Then an episode of the Galley La telling Luffy Merry is gonna die, and then a Merry Apperciation episode. Then the next episode Merry is burned, and then the events of Koby n Garp happen for a few episode along with some Filler for the entire week, like 7 episodes of Fillers there. And then I can see an episode of just everything guessing what the new ship will look like; The Straw Hats, and even some of the other characters(who didn't work on the ship)
like the mermaid and her granddaughter. Hopefully they some of the Chapter Stories, it would work after finding out their bouties after showing their support characters see their bounties they can take a while to go back to the main cast. -
Looking at other fillers from previous episodes, I'm guessing again for those next three days while Luffy is sleeping there is gonna be a Franky building the ship filler as well as the Strawhats having certain episodes about them and their "talent"
Like Chopper will have a doctor episode
Sanji will go up against some female cook
Nami will look up stuff for maps
Usopp donning the Sogeking mask again/making up ways to join SHs again.
Luffy probably wont have one nor will Zoro or Robin. -

First off, Lucchi is more than likely not dead. As no one seems to die in the present in One Piece.
Stretching is one thing, but they can't fill an entire episode (even with recaps) as just Luffy laying down. And it by no means will take an episode for them to escape, even filled with filler. An entire episode of Iceberg telling them about Merry? That was 7 panels max man, no way can it become a full episode.
The Merry appreciation episode I can see.
-
Ah yes, Fillers are inevitable. However look at it this way. What would we rather have, some new content with fresh adventures or have a long hiatus. One Piece did something very unique with Water 7/Enies Lobby. They took many many week breaks for the arc. That was pretty good instead of alot of fillers. Now the next comment should start the flames. They should hire the Bleach Filler team, excluding the three mod souls the arc was honestly pretty darn impressive for a filler arc. Decent villains, a decent story and such. It wasn't one crappy three part filler like Naruto did. We should be lucky that Toei or any anime company doesn't put pressure on the mangka by putting out fillers. As long as they aren't as bad as Goat Sex I'm sure it will be ok.
Also, think about it. If you had never read the manga before (if no one had) then there wouldn't be such as thing as fillers. Try to view it as that, more fleshing out of the world that we love.
-
I can't see how you saw the bleach filler as good. All it did was make all the characters look emo and crap because they got owned. It's even worse that they think they need to keep bringing them back into the story during an arc which is actually in the manga. I actually shout at my computer when ever those three teddies appear for no reason and tell them to jog on.
Anyway back on topic I think they should do some fillers of other characters in the grand line. It would be cool to see what Smoker or Buggy has been up to while the Straw Hats have been around saving lands from destruction.
