Questions That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread
-
-
Jane Doe: what are you talking about? The title of the manga? Its written in eglish letters. "one piece" in english is the official titel by Oda afaik.
Question: I haven't bothered reading the chapter discussions recently and i cant seem to find this out on my own: What happened to Hannybal? Is he hiding in some storage cupboard just to mess with his superior? or did he actally get beaten by mr 3?
-
no one knows what happens with hannybal…he seems just disappear into thin air...
in the forum there is some speculation:
1. Hannybal is one of the rebel, so he helped mr.2
2. hannybal is he okama queen himself in disguise
3. Hannybal is plotting something???
4. Hannybal is pandaman is disguise ( I made this up..haha ) -
hannybal is planing to let luffy's ID team to run riot and then get magalligan in lots of trouble, thne save the day and get his position. although he didn't tell Mr2 that he wouldn't cooperate at the end, he said that he can do what he wants.
-
dunno if this was ask before or even in sbs questions well just tell me if it was, oh well
back then when Luffy challenged Ao Kiji w/ a mano o mano duel was Luffy thinking that he could win against Ao Kiji or is he trying to save his nakamas by challenging him with one on one and considered unhonorable if Ao Kiji attacks his nakamas after luffy is defeated?
I know it's not important but it's bugging me for almost like a year now lol.
-
He didn't yet comprehend just how powerfull some people are and he needed one of the strongest to show him just like Mihawk showed Zoro so he knows what lvl he will need to reach and even surpass to be Pirate King. After a second he probably knew that he would lose to Aokiji but probably went on trying to fight him because the alternative would be loosing and giving up on his nakama and his dreams which has never ever been an option for Luffy
I wonder what the titlepages are going to be like in 2 chapters. I believe only zoro and robin need an insect title page and all the rest already had one. So maybe we finally get to see what the others are up too. It would be about bloody time too although I would rather see it in the manga itself
-
How long One Piece will last for..? 5 years ? 10 years?
-
-
Wow thank god i start to watch One Piece 2+ years ago….It feels good watch hell lotsa chapter in 1 day....!
I wonder what will happen if i watch it from the 1st day One Piece published... -
Do the Boa sisters have different kinds of haki? We see one sister use predictive skills and the other use defensive skills but we never see them use both.
A friend of mine thinks they have the same kind but I'm not sure. :ninja: -
How much does Straw Hats bounty will increase if it even count on Gecko Moria defeat…?
-
How much does Straw Hats bounty will increase if it even count on Gecko Moria defeat…?
well dont forget other actions since like
-escaping kuma
-hitting the tenrybuto
-escaping kizaru
-destroying a pacifista
-working with other supernovas (law, kidd)
-being friends of silvers raleighand finally the current actions luffys taking in impel down, this may even result in a
-mass break-out
-the destruction of impel down
-the release of jimbei
-the release of ace
-and possibly the total defeat of magallen
-it may also change the course of the waralthough some of these listed aren't that bad, having all of them on a list at marine hq would probably increase how serious a threat they are seen as, thus they might get a MUCH larger bounty…...
also if Luffy is revealed to work with boa and maybe even jimbei the governments weapons........the shichibukai's credibility will weaken, and make the government a laughing stock
-
ik they do get a bounty increase then I think the entire crew will be above 1 billion because of the things that John Giant has said and because it is a nice cape to pass.

I've got a question about Blackbeards DF:
He said he can't let attacks go through him like all other logias. But is there a way for him to still avoid damage? Like sucking the attack in before it reaches the DF's users body. Or does he really need to take the hit? (Of course he can avoid it in the classical way, but I think you got my point.) -
That might depend on the conents of the offensive object. Better yet, he could surround himself with the vortex instead of holding it above his head.

(Of course he can avoid it in the classical way, but I think you got my point.)well he can cover his body in darkness to use as a sheild, but apart from that no
also i have a question, is bon clay gay, straight or homosexual?
i always thought he was straight but dressed like a woman, am i missing something??:wassat: -
Remember when he complimented Vivi? I bet he's bi.
And lol, I ninja'd you.
-

well yeah i know he likes women but so far that's all he's shown, so maybe he is just a straight male that likes dressing in drag, but if this is the case then does it apply to all okamas
although the people of kammabakka island were chasing sanji so maybe they all have their own preference, or perhaps bon clay is one of few, this whole topic is confusing, i give up:silly:
ninjad me?? huh
-
Being "Ninja'd" means someone posted the same idea that you did, shortly beforehand. We both proposed the idea of a shadowy sheild, but I did it first.

That makes sense, though I have never quite known exactly what Okama means: half the time I think it's a term for gay, other times it's a term for a transvestite, other times I think it's something more subtle then that. Bah, this is confusing.
Also, I want to put myself behind the popular theory of Luffy turning into a woman, just because it make a certain signature even funnier for it.
-
One may stray from the path of a man; One may stray from the path of a woman; but there is no straying from the path of a human! That is the Okama Way!
I figure "okama" means anyone who is "confused" or doesn't care about their sexual identity. For instance, although a straight man, I think somewhat like a woman and even hold feminist ideals. Therrefore I am a type of okama called "metrosexual", meaning I have good communications with my lesser chromozone.

ok here a question
On that pic http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/537/06-07/
You see two tall/big dude.
One looks like Moria brother (the one left to the axes) and the other like the brother of hamburg (with fozy crew, to te right)
what do you think
-
It's probably a typo, but you mean the Foxy Pirates. What isn't a typo, but definitely a cultural misunderstanding, is that "Gecko" is Moria's family name. They do it backwards in Japan, amoung many other countries.
As for your questions, that is just a matter of greater genetic diversity in the Odaverse compared to us. In Enis Lobby, when Oimo and Kaashi were fighting the Franky Family, they bragged about how over-sized humans aren't enough to defeat them.

I have a serious question that's really been nagging at me so answer seriously guys. Which does more damage, Gomu Gomu No Twin Jet Pistol or Gomu Gomu No Jet Bazooka? I think this is mostly a physics question to be honest but I really want to knowO_O
-
I would go with Jet Bazooka since it has added snapback, while Twin Jet Pistol is a more straightforward punch.
-
Actually, I've always been rather confused about whether or not he stretches his wind-up for Pistol or not. This is no doubt the fault of Toei for misusing the attack in the very first episode.
-

Yes but Bazooka is open-palmed while twin jet pistol is close-fisted and as we all know, a slap hurts less than a punch since palms are soft while fists have hard bone that connect.
-
when did luffy use jet twin pistol, i remember a twin bullet, oro am i confused?
-

Against Lucci and Magellan.
-
i just saw it, i think the twin jet pistol is quicker and so caught him offgaurd compered to bazooka where luffy's hands have moret time to speed up.

Jet Bazooka. Twin Jet Pistol is a 2-handed attack that takes less prep time. All of Luffy's Bazookas require him to stretch his arms back before contracting them and hitting his enemy. You could say that Jet Bazooka has charge time.
The reason Jet Bazooka is stronger is because Jet Bazooka stores energy in stretching back, and then releases the stored energy along with Luffy's push forward, so that the stored energy, when released, amplifies the force and damage of the Bazooka. When using Gomu Gomu no Cannon, he also charges up and stores energy by stretching his arms and flinging them back and forth to force his arms to increase its length, and thus its stored energy.
For Bazooka, Elasticity alone explains it's energy. For Cannon, the reason for the stored energy is explained by Resonance.

Yep, exactly what I needed, a physics Ace^^ And BOY did I get one^^ Tx man!!! I'd have hated it if twin jet pistol was stronger than Jet Bazooka. Bazooka's been around longer and I have a special fondness for it and it being weaker than this new variation would kinda have killed the nostalgia for me:/

according to Nami's navication instruction, it's impossible to get out of Gland Line unless through Calm Belt. So how did Don Creg, Zeff, Hawkeye, Shanks all came out from the Gland line in the begining of the story?

Krieg said he went through the calm belt. It can be assumed so did the rest. Especially Mihawk who just floats around that tiny boat.
-
Then there's the matter of utilizing travel amoungst sky islands, which Nami didn't know about at the time.

kuma came and beamed them out of the gland rine

I watched the fight between Zoro and Mr.1 again today. And how the hell can Mr.1 cut things that far away? :S!
-
Have you gotten to the Skypia War Game yet? Zoro learns how to do that.
-

Yes, of course . So he did cut the air?
-
It's never directly explained, but that's the implication.
-
Theory: Luffy saves Ace and Bentham takes his place in the cell by making himself look like Ace. Luffy takes Ace to New Kama Land and Ace is turned into a woman, Ashley. She tries to go back to WB but he doesn't want her as a woman. Her only option is to join the SHs.
-
I think I just threw up in my mouth.
-
Please take that to the Dumb Predictions thread. Whitebeard would probably except her as a nurse, even if that craziness happened.
Although that would fit a number of our anticipations. We finally get a Logia-user, a third girl, and Sanji would even be too scared to swoon her. (For multiple reasons!)
-

mihawk's tiny boat is carved like his sword too right? if not, sorry i forgot.

Just wanted to "shout" it somewhere…
The episode 394 just cenzored the Finger made by Law...
IMO such a waste...
Its a finger...not an exploding collar, hehe dont know what is more funny. Law showing it or them cenzoring it...The funniest part however came afterwards when after the finger they left the original lines so Law just turns around to check on Kid (remeber no finger) then Kid says: Such bad habits....
Haha whats that suposed to mean...should Law greet him or something
-
I expect that the finger will be on the DVD release.
-
@~sanJi-kun!:

It is shaped like a coffin
-
who is zah?
1.new member
2.old member under a new alias
3.or some kind of interdimensional being that's obsessed with aglets, rubix cubes and making lame threads??? -

I was dissapointed by that too :(
but the anime did manage to make Raleigh's introduction really badass
