So when does the HD episode on Tv?
Official RAW Discussion II
-
-
WOW! I knew Robin was getting a new VA, but I didn't even notice the difference last week, and I probably wouldn't have this week either if it hadn't been mentioned earlier. She's really good.
-
Maybe people just don't remember the chapter very well.
Where did I suggest they added filler or didn't follow the comic? I said they spent far too much time on it including panning motionless scenes or flapping mouthes with no real interaction transpiring. And with the tank sitting on my shelf no more than two feet from my reach, it would be hard to suggest anything was forgotten, especially since I even gave you a page count comparison.
Again, way too much time wasted on the two.
-
Hmm I got a new video card last week, maybe I can run the HD raws now at regular speed and not 2FPS… Im gonna give it a try. Thanks for posting it.
well I lost like half my post where I said I pretty much agreed with Greg and didn't understand why they're dragging out this arc with and filler and scenes lagging on where as other arcs they didn't do that. but I don't really feel like making the post again -_-
but the HD raw worked on my computer I guess that new video card really works well. I'm impressed... kinda weird though since the resolution of the video is bigger than my current monitor =P

Doesn't it depend on the codec?
EDIT: Just saw the episode and it was great. I loved the Robin slaps and seeing her free maks me happy.

Oi, I was disappointed with the music choices on Sogeking's intro.
I really would have loved the theme to play that played when he did Usopp Pound/Franky burning Blueprints/Franky getting his cola.
That would have really set the mood.
That is exactly what I was thinking, quoted for great justice
-
Bleh after a really good episode 300 Toei fell back to its "lets screw up Oda´s masterpiece" standards. The choice of background music for the Sogeking intro wasn´t the best. It wasn´t a bad choice but it wasn´t a good one either. "Luffy´s Fierce Attack" would have fit the scene much better. In the Zoro/Sogeking fillers they overused that track and now where it belongs they skip it.
Thumbs down also for Sogekings attacks. I mean what was that, just some smoke bombs or what? In the manga there was smoke and fire and it was at least BIG. Here it´s just smoke but doesn´t look more devastating then Usopps regular pre-Kabuto Gunpowder Star. The only thing here that made this new weapon different from his previous pachinko was that stuff flies over greater distances and the sound effect which made it sound a bit like fireworks (liked that one).
And for next episode Vice Admiral "Scarface" looks pretty disappointing already. He doesn´t look half as badass as in the manga. And seriously, are the people at Toei color blind or what? In the manga his injured eye is white and his coat is black, which would mean that in the anime the eye would either get a bright color or remains white and the coat gets a dark color or remains black. But nope, they turn it around his coat is white and the eye black. Bleh Toei!
-
I loved Usopp's LOCK-OOOOOON metal scream, though the song wasn't done very well at all… It was still the highlight of the episode.
Agreed with Greg, too much time wasted on what could've been done in 2 or 3 minutes. How long does it really take to drag somebody 20 feet? I can understand this is anime but gosh, the flashbacks even...
-
I liked the episode, even though Sogeking's intro was kind of… lackluster. Best part was probably the preview for next episode though, not in the least because of the apparently awesome animation.
-
Why does VA scarface look so stupid?
-
Just for all who cannot play the HD one, because of a too slow computer:
I'm currently reencoding the HD Raw to SD (704x396 pixel), it will be available over torrent in about an hour. -
@Radical:

I know what you mean! He looks so crappy in that preview scene compared to the manga. I hope that's just one bad scene on the animator's part. Maybe he won't look so crappy when all 5 are introduced.
-
Just finished watching 301, and damn it was a great episode. I can't wait for next weeks episode. ^_^.
-
Here is my torrent for the 301 WS Raw:
One Piece 301 RAW (704x396 XviD) on Torrentbox
One Piece 301 RAW (704x396 XviD) on Piratebay
Currently I'm the only seed so it will be rather slow at the beginning (my upstream is 70 kb/s).
Please help seeding it after you have downloaded it. -
Thanks Luffy, looks like I am gonna have to grab that since apparently running the video by itself is okay, but when I try to run it with subtitles, it slows down a bunch
-
As shown in the preview, we have our scarfaced Admiral!
(crappy YouTube quality, but it's a picture nonetheless)
Rejoice, that is a command![/pun]
-
great episode love the ending and great ussop moment
-
I'm waiting for ep 301 HDTV RAW 120FPS. Does someone have it there?
-
I have a question… Why was episode 300 Widescreen AND HD. I thought both was supposed to be impossible…?

Aldrich is gonna fangasm.
-
Wasn't Sogekind supposed to be shooting the firebird star in this episode? All I see is a bunch of smoke bombs. And his singing should of been more noticable/louder than that.
-
Since the 301 Saiyaman FS RAW is such bad quality, and the one I got from Share isn't that great either, I reencoded an FS RAW from the HD RAW. Here is the torrent:

@Lobster:

It seems you are confused on the meaning of widescreen and HD.
-Widescreen is an aspect ratio (in the case of TV 16:9)
-HD is a resolution (in the case of TV it's currently 1280x720)doing some simple math we find that 16/9 = 1.77778 and 1280/720 = 1.77778, therefore HD has the 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio.
I believe you are confusing widescreen with SD.
SD signals are broadcast in 480p, which is a progressive resolution of 720x480(i think)
It is very possible to have an episode in both HD and SD, it all depends on the tv card on the computer that gets the TV rips because some can only go upto 480p (where a 16/9 show would be encoded at 704x396) while others can go up to 720p (where 16/9 is the native resolution at 1280x720), thus making both SD and HD RAWs for One Piece possible.
Hopefully that clarifies things for you.

No, just the pachinkos.
I'm glad they didn't overdo the Sogeking music, in fact reading the manga i had the impression his singing was more of a background thing here.Well, Very nice art and animation overall, the flashbacks were kinda longer than it should be but that's understandable. And once again, big thanks to our widescreen SD provider!

@Zangetsu_:

They are the same. 120 fps just contains lots of blank frames. Unless u r preparing AMV, it won't matter as the quality is the same.
-
Erm, can someone please tell me what these things I´ve put in circles are supposed to be? In the original counterpart in the manga those thingies are not there.
-
Navigational bananas tied to their sails, which also serve to befuddle and intimadate the opponent?
Seriously, I've no idea. Perhaps it's some sort of early April fools joke poking fun at Usopps nose.
-
quick question, hopefully it hasn't been asked already- (spoilers maybe?)
in the manga did Usopp really hear the going merry right after he shot spandam and franky landed on the mine? I feel like its happening earlier. Unless what he's hearing is mermaid obasan?
-
Or he was hearing the cannonball coming.
-
wow how they screwed up that VA so much is beyond me.
-
Seriously. I know Oda's art is hard to emulate, but hell, could they have butchered his design more? Chestnut hair and stache? Black eye? White coat? WTF is that shit?
At least it seems like he'll have a pretty big role since he's the first VA shown.
-
in the manga did Usopp really hear the going merry right after he shot spandam?
Yes, he did. In fact, Oda always used the same kind of speech balloon in all Merry "lines". See:
Usopp hears it the first time

-
I think that the anime version of "Admiral Scarface" looks stupid as well….but if I recall correctly, I complained about what the anime coloring of Pauly looked like and everyone told me to "Shut up, it's no big deal".
Eh....I guess we'll just have to wait until Oda colors him until we find out what he is suposed to look like (He is drawn bad as well, though, so they'll have to fix that...)
-
We don't have to wait for Oda to color him to see that they changed his dark coat to a white one (badassery -1200) and his blind eye became black which is absolutely retarded and just makes him look like he took a punch and has a bruise. What for? To save ink?
-
It might be that some shadow is on that eye. Maybe in another screen it'll just be plain white like in the manga.
-
Bleh, that´s no shadow. Just look at Aldrich´s sig to see how that eye looks like even if it is covered in shadows. It most definitely is a screw up. As is the white coat.
-
I heard that Yuriko Yamaguchi was taking some time off. Who replaced her as Robin's voice? I bet it's Kotono Mitsuishi. If it's true, then I'm cool with that. Her Olvia sounded almost exactly like Robin.
-
I can't believe you guys are so picky as to point out someone wearing a different colored coat…
aww nah I understand, if it was Demyx and they gave hiim a weird coat, I'd be pissed too...
hey anyone else notice in One Piece 300 Luffy says "Jetto Whip" Instead of "Jetto Muchi"
I don't remember him ever using the english word for whip before. -
@Senshi:

Wha, Olvia was a different voice actor then Robin´s? Never noticed that.
I can't believe you guys are so picky as to point out someone wearing a different colored coat…
Oh but it is something to get worked up if you like the character (even if he didn´t appear much). Oda wanted for him to have a dark coat. What´s important is that almost every higher ranked Marine officer wears a white coat. Just think back of chapter 96 where all the high ups were wearing white coats. Now this dude has a color scheme (no matter if it would have been black, dark blue or whatsoever) that makes him stick out of the crowd.
No matter how minor a thing might appear, a creater always has an intention behind his design. It might be of major or bigger role but a constructive thought always goes through the creators mind. And now Toei yet again went against that by messing up colors.
hey anyone else notice in One Piece 300 Luffy says "Jetto Whip" Instead of "Jetto Muchi"
I don't remember him ever using the english word for whip before.Wow, I didn´t notice that one either. Just checked the chapter and he infact says "Jetto Uippu" there. Thanks for pointing that one out.

-
Well, I'm suddenly feeling stupid. ^_^' I thought I saw Kotono Mitsuishi listed as Olvia on ANN before Robin's flashback aired. I wonder what kind of voice Vice Admiral "Scarface" is getting? If it's good, maybe it'll at least make up for his WTF anime design. About how he looks, it could be that the animators aren't used to drawing him yet.
-
Perhaps his design will be all better in the coming episodes.
-
I don't get what's so bad about his design. Is it the black eye, or the non-fat jaw?
-
It´s the black eye and the white coat. Other than that he looks, I don´t know how to say, he looks a bit younger and not like an old dog as he did in the manga.
-
That and the lack of pupil in his valid eye. The pupil showing in a white iris is one of Oda's graphical codes to express fighting spirit and excitement before battle and Scarface is the only character introduced yet in the manga who had it permanently. His anime version just has a generic black dot.

missed the end of this week's episode because of earthquake broadcast

O_O
Will this be on the raw?
Cause if the episode ends like how I think it will/should… I will be super pissed off and probably end up going on a rampage.
