Nice cover! I was tired of my avatar… :devil:
Vol. 47 Discussion Thread (Cover is Up + SBS Break Down by Greg + UGP by e1n)
-
-
Yeah, Moria continues to be "Closest Villain in Manga History to a Penis and Balls" but at least I like his color scheme and the blue lips help. Hogback is my favorite though. He looks great.
-
!
Wait, how'd Locke manage to make it onto TB?
btw omae, was there any mention of the connection between Zombie Ryuma & Ryuma from WANTED! ?
(Just like to confirm that)
-
Something that caught my attention: Moria's necklace has a very similar design to Absalom's hat. On one hand, that screams "Symbol!", but on the other hand, the tufts on the ends of the cross resemble Moria's hair.
-
Dear sweet Jeevus..that colorscheme somehow makes Perona even hawter?! D:
I rly didnt like her blonde with pink everywhere look that artist were guessing at.Everyone except maybe Hogback looks totally different than I expected (rly though CIndry's skin'd be green. So all the zombies are probably blue?!) but they all look good and match the theme of the arc. I was afraid some of the color schemes might throw them off but they don't. And the colorschemes in my head were probably altittle more generic than Oda-sensei's choices here, so kudos to him!
-
Shouldn't the title be changed to "Vol. 47 Discussion Thread" now?
-
we are still predicting the SBS questions untill they have been confirmed…
j/k =P
-
If not for Luffy on the cover, a new reader might have mistaken the volume as some sort of a horror manga.
Great cover anyway; looking forward to it being localized here :)
-
I do have one beef with the cover. Perona's face…I know she usually looks like that but....her expression just looks.....mentally ill'ish...
Either way, I fricken want this volume.
-
Battle, yeah, he discussed the issue.
Ryuma is the same Ryuma. Garp however is not the same Garp (important as it means he was never a pirate unlike the grandpa in Romance Dawn)
Let's see, I have some free time now so the good stuff (ie. Oda not screwing around) is:
Ages:
Lucci 28
Kaku 23
Jabra 35
Blueno 30
Kumadori 34
Fukurou 29
Kalifa 25
Spandam 39Oda goes over the DF Captains that he described in Yellow (for those who don't have it)
The shells on Cocoro's….breasts.....(vomit) was a 'nuubra'. Um, I dunno how to say that in English. NuBra? I dunno if it's in America. It's a bra that is strapless and sticks to the breast while clipping together in the middle. If any females here know what that is in English, that's what it is, made from shells. Now let us never speak of it again.
The reason Chopper isn't interested in seeing Nami or any woman naked despite being 15 human years old is because.....HE'S A REINDEER
Coby's birthday is May 13th
Co = Ko = Go = 5 = May & by = B = 13 Get it?Helmeppo's birthday is July 16th
Helmeppo is described as a 'nanahikari musuko' or spoiled rotten brat. If you try to make numbers from that:nana = 7 = July
(hikari = hitotsu = 1) + (Musuko = mutsu = 6) = 16
Jump does not order the manga based on popularity from week before. It's true that popular series are in front but the actual order is decided from week to week by the editor-in-chief.
Kalipha is Paramecia, duh.
In 436 and 437 there was a chick who was looking through binocular's at Franky's package. Her name is Marumieeta (maru mieta = Saw it all). Next to her is her butler Yamenahaare (Yamenasai harenchi???? = Stop that indecency ((guess on my part)) ) She's the only daughter of the Mayor Bimine (Not sure what gag this is) of Pucchi. She's an airhead and knows little of the world so is interested by anything/everything. She came to W7 to view the damage by Aqua Laguna and well….yeah.
Something we guessed long ago. Robin's bloomings are her own body. She feels everything they feel and any damage to them is damage to her. Which means anything they've touched, she's touched. Which means......yeah...
Since Coby's salute seemed odd being palm in as opposed to out, one fan asked about that. Turns out it's an actual salute designed not to show one's tar-covered hands to a superior. The tar comes from the many ropes on the ship being pulled.
Oda uses 9 o'clock and 12 o'clock (directionally) frequently in the manga. That's because thinking about the movements a ship makes moving forward it makes the most sense.
-
Whoa, I always assumed Blueno was the oldest out of the CP9(not counting Spandam), guess it was just his demeanor.Turns out Jyabura is the oldest, go figure. thanks for the info Greg.
-
Wow, thanks for the info as always, Greg. Very nice and fun stuff there.
-
:wails depressed: Kumadori didn't spend centuries becoming a Sennin? His mother's not dead either? (previous SBS)… what can I believe in?
-
Can someone please scan the cover?
-
Can someone please scan the cover?
Ummm, Greg posted it on page 10 and Battle Franky quoted it on the current page… Open up your eyes, mate.. Life would be easier that way <.<
-
Well now I can see Cindry. Holy cow, she's horribly busty.
-
Thanks for the info and the cover Greg. I'm really surprised that Spamdam is 39…he seems so much younger than that!! But then again I was wrong about all of the CP9's ages. Thanks again.
-
I thought Spandam would have been, like… 45 or something...
-
thx for the cover
-
Ummm, Greg posted it on page 10 and Battle Franky quoted it on the current page… Open up your eyes, mate.. Life would be easier that way <.<
I've already seen it!-.-
I just askesd fo a scan, besause the corner with Perona is pretty unclear.
I need it for a MQ/HQ scan of the cover.
-
:wails depressed: Kumadori didn't spend centuries becoming a Sennin? His mother's not dead either? (previous SBS)… what can I believe in?
Same here. I guesse he was 100 years or something, and Spandam was in the 50's.
Holy crap, Moria's lips are blue! And Perona's lipstick is kind of… dull. I dunno, I just think pink lipstick didn't fit in her.
Strange... it looks like that Hogback is wearing a mask...
-
Hopefully we'll see more Nubra's around Fishman Island…yes, it looks wrong on Kokoro but we may meet some younger mermaids so then it will look hot! Just trust me. (just please make her younger than thirty...yeah no legs but she'll still look cute!)
I guess Kaku wasn't lying about being so young. And Jyabura...yeah, that probably explains why he's married. (though somehow now I'm starting to sort in my head how old Spandam was when his dad caused the Buster Call on Ohara)
As for ranks being determined by editor...at least we finally find out that! With how insane we've obsessed about ratings on the WSJ LJ, at least we now have proof from an actual mangaka!
-
@Tokoro:
And Jyabura…yeah, that probably explains why he's married. (though somehow now I'm starting to sort in my head how old Spandam was when his dad caused the Buster Call on Ohara)
Huh, Jabra married? Did I miss something? (and it´s not that much of a mathematic task to go 39 minus 20 years.^^)
-
And here I thought Blueno was going on forty!
-
Huh, Jabra married? Did I miss something? (and it´s not that much of a mathematic task to go 39 minus 20 years.^^)
Sorry, a bit confused considering they did mention someone, I think it was Jabura with a girlfriend or wife.
As for Ohara…well, I forgot if it was 18 years or 20 years. So then somehow that meant that Spandam was probably minimaly a lowly ranked CP/govt agent. But of course, we know he was promoted to CP5 head by the time of the Tom incident and eventually did take over daddy's job. But somehow I guess that with Spandine's comment about wanting his son to take over his job, I always assumed Spandam was younger.
-
Nah, he just got dumped by Gatherine, that´s all. There wasn´t any mention a girlfriend or wife of his.
Strangely I also often imagined that Spandam was younger when Spandain spoke of his son but it never occured to me that right now he´s younger then 40, which in the end is contradicting own ideas. Oh well, the human mind is a confusing place.^^
-
Ummm, Greg posted it on page 10 and Battle Franky quoted it on the current page… Open up your eyes, mate.. Life would be easier that way <.<
Uuh….maybe YOU need to open your eyes. Greg's picture is a picture taken with a camera, it's not a scan.
-
Okay, July 17th is now officially the most gay and beautiful day ever. But wait, is it July 17 or 16? And I've seen some japanese sites saying July 7 and May 3, not July 17 and May 13. MY HEAD'S GONNA EXPLODE
And lol I always wondered why the hell do all One Piece sailors salute that way…
Nobody asked about Coby or Meppo's ages??? I'm surprised.
-
Wow. I bet more than half of Moria's bounty comes out of wearing those orange pants. oO
And omgomgomgomgomgomg Perona-chan! ><
Meh, with all the weird age-talking… I wonder how old Perona-chan is? I mean, if she was hanging around Moria already 10 years ago (looks like it from the flashback panel), then she must be nearing her 30s? That is unless she joined the crew when she was like, 15? -
o.o'… Are Cindry's breasts that big in the manga? Holy crap. And I always knew Kumadori wasn't old. He was just exaggerating about meditating for centuries.
-
Nah, he just got dumped by Gatherine, that´s all. There wasn´t any mention a girlfriend or wife of his.
I love how Oda continues that joke in the next volumes! When the special dog unit from Enies Lobby arrives, you see two dogs in the front talking to each other. Eventually, a reader asks Oda in the SBS what they were talking about, and Oda states:
"Dog #1: 'You heared Jabura got dumped by Catherine?'
Dog #2: 'No, really?'"Later on, a reader asks why Catherine dumped Jabura, and Catherine answers instead of Oda: "Because I love Lucchi!" Or something like this.
That's also one of the many reasons why I love One Piece so much.
-
Wow, Hogbacks up close man boobs scare me.

No way, he really said that? Fantastic, absolutely fantastic! I totally skipped that one. Thanks for pointing it out!^^
Wow, Hogbacks up close man boobs scare me.
I don´t see any boobs. I only see crossed arms that cover any sight of man boobs.
-
Those are arms? Thats even scarier.
-
Any chance someone could scan the SBS pages? I mean if anyone got the volume X3 Thankies.
-
Thanks for the huge cover, Greg. I want Pandaman pictures! :P
-
This post is deleted!
-
If anyone still cares, amazon.co.jp has a bigger scanned picture of the cover now up.
-
Wow, that bigger picture really showed me how much more phsychotic Moria looks with the red hair.
And Perona's hair color is….cute.(I did not just say that…)
-
@Battle:
Wait, how'd Locke manage to make it onto TB?
Thanks Franky, now he's the only thing I'm gonna see when I look at this cover.
Anyway, completely forgot this was out. Off to order.
-
Cindry's breasts kind of ballooned there, an extremely awesome volume, can't wait to get my hands on it. Moria looks even more awesome now also.
Pretty interesting little tidbits on CP9, I would've thought for sure that Blueno and Jyabura were closer in age though.
-
@Battle:

I think i missed something… who or what is Locke?

You are a shame against humanity. Get out.
-
Hey Mistah Greg, where did you got the SBS info from? Did you actually got the volume? ___ kdlsjfalsd I'm dying to see the SBS pages scanned. And to confirm Coby and Meppo's b-days (augh some sites say diferent stuff). They should've asked about their ages. Oh well. But I liked to see the CP9 ones, I though Spandam was younger…
-
Yeah, pretty sure he has the volume. Not surprising considering where he currently lives.
-
You are a shame against humanity. Get out.
oh stop it.
dont be such a stuck up tight ass just because you think some reference should be common knowledge. -
Hey Mistah Greg, where did you got the SBS info from?
From the volume.
Did you actually got the volume?
Yes, at the Family Mart down the street.
The birthdays I posted I BELIEVE are accurate. It's possible I completely wrote the wrong number but given the depth of the gags I doubt it. I will check to be certain when I get home but by that time there will probably already be scans of the SBS out and I get home when the majority of this forum is sleeping and wouldn't be able to confirm until exactly 24 hours from now since I don't have internet at home for the moment which is EXTREMELY fucking inconvenient.
But yeah, I'm pretty sure they're right.
-

Oh I just checked again, it seems you just wrote July 17th for once, but meant July 16th, that's all, I think I ended up making the problem bigger than it really was^^;; Sorry.
Oh I shall wait for some scans to show up first, then. Anyways, thanks a lot =D

Start watchin kid. Then watch Alias, which is also awesome.
