one piece has had a time skip before you know when shanks gave luffy his straw hat to when luffy set sail…But that is and will be the only time skip.
Will there be a Time Skip in One Piece?
-
-
I'm going to have to ask the last two posters (NuFiasco and Pokemaster 95) to define "time skip"
-
It will happen on "timeskipp island"! =P
Tha-Tha-Th-Th-That can actually happen. I mean they could go on an Island that is unstable in the Grand Line and the time is constantly changing every month. So its like the characters grow older when they enter the island.

Will there be a timeskip at some point in the new world? I don't want one, but Idon't see how coby can become an admiral in such a short amount of time. All the yonkou seem to be caught in some sort of waiting period, so what if in order to reach raftel, there's some sort of current that occurs every thirty years or so, so there's like a five year timeskip.
-
No. Just - no. Just, just, just - no.
-
Hail naw, nope, oya, nu, ba, kaewai and just plain HELL NO!! In b4 the lock
Edit: Strawhats have become pwnage in two and a half months. Whats stopping Coby?
-
the only time skip we will probably see is after luffy becomes the pirate king and you see an older coby chasing him around. though that will probably be around the ending of one piece.
-
I agree with smurfx. The only timeskip I see happening is near the end of the series.
Even then, I'm kinda doubtful.
-
Honestly, it might help pacing for this upcoming "war". But that would be the easy way out. I have faith that Oda will stay the course with his many characters and plot-lines. So i would have to say "Dear god no!!"
I agree that there would be one at the end (even as cliche as a "where are they now" style ending is.. it would be very awesome).
-
It depends which way you want to look at it really. We are never going to have the naruto "well I just did a training arc but everyone needs to get stronger to stay interesting, so lets skip ahead a few years" kind of time skip.
However, because of the nature of the the Grand Line, there are unstated time skips in between every arc. The travel time between islands is very rarely stated exactly. There are a few occasions where there is a good reason to suppose that fair number of weeks, if not months had passed. For example, all of the characters seem slightly more mature and Zoro is fully healed after the trip from Arlong Park to Loguetown. This map: http://img239.imageshack.us/img239/7299/eastbluexj0.jpg although not to scale, shows that distance to be nearly a quarter of the circumference of the globe.
Even during the Grand Line tour, Sanji has stocked up and depleted his store of food on several occasion, which might infer time passed there as well.
So time skips happen, they are just all of an indeterminate time between a few days and a month.
-
No no no, don't want it to happen, this is no freakin Naruto.
I don't want to miss any of the Strawhats Adventures until they reach their goals. Any i really doubt it will happen.
Maybe in the last chapters … -
There is no need for a Timeskip

Nah Nah No NO NONONONONONONONONO!

Yeah, especially that Coby is training under Garp, he should be a Admiral in no time…...well, maybe in a few years! Or in One Piece world, next few months
-
No no no, don't want it to happen, this is no freakin Naruto.
Plenty of other mangas besides Naruto even before Naruto was even published had Timeskips so a timeskip for One Piece wouldn't be a shock.
-
OP already had its latge timeskip. It was after Shanks lost his arm.
-
there won
t be a timeskip cause oda doesn
t want that the SH are getting any older… luffy is 17, hes right now as old as his readers(or the group of readers jump thinks is the main reader group) and so perfectly to identify for them...so can
t see that luffy will get any older :ninja: -
more importantly
this thread has been done
guys
learn to search

All time skips so far in OP are only a few days. Anything more thna a few months or year is just stupid and lazy writing IMO.
If used properly it is sometimes a good thing. To me though time skips are just a way to keep the same story but having everything different.
-
maybe the SH's come to an island where the time pass by faster than usually???????????????
-
-
maybe the SH's come to an island where the time pass by faster than usually???????????????
Which means that we, the readers would still witness them experiencing adventures there.
-

if time passes by faster.. who gets more experience?
- If the strawhats experience more time passing: why would they stay at that island? a training arc?
-If everyone else experience more time: What would be the benefit? all of a sudden everyone has had the chance to become much stronger.
I thought the whole point of a timeskip was to renew the main characters, not the antagonists. -
may b he mean slower time… since slower time allow them to train but faster time.. i cant see the benefit of it xD
-
Saying "faster" and "slower" isn't a good way to describe it since it means different things depending on the perspective.
"Time passing faster" could imo either mean that in 5 minutes outside the island half an hour goes by on the island.
But it could also mean that 30 minutes outside flies by as 5 minutes inside.It wil lbe easier to understand if you say more time or less time.
-
I would prefer time to move normally at the rate OP is going. Seeing the chracters grow is better than jumping in a time portal to rush it.
-
I can't imagine a timeskip at all. They are progressing forward to a goal. Its not like naruto or dragonball where the goal is to just be the strongest in the village/world/universe ect. He he is trying to get to Raftel for One Piece. he is on a journey.
And the time island would seem to mess up more than could help. The only way it would ever have a slight chance of helping is if say you are on the island for a year. everyone else outside the island only experiences a day. Roughly same as hyperbolic time chamber. But then why would SH's even hang out on island that long, they never do. Except if for Log waiting. But I doubt Oda would have them get ot island and be like we need to wait 3 years for it to set, and then next chapter is 3 years later.
we have seen before if that long of a wait luffy would just chance it and sail off. so timeskip just seems stupid.
And seriously what would you want the characters to look like anyway. Isn't usually a time skip nice for character to age and mature. I don't want them to be older pirates like shanks/mihawk. They aren't super young like Gohan or the naruto ninjas. Which is only reason for timeskip was to age them. Did you notice that by lucky chance saiyans happen to not age like at all. they are warrior race so stay in warrior age/shape for long time. Hmm so really only reason was to just age Gohan to be older. Cause the strength getting bigger isn't a factor. I mean he did the same thing he coudl of without training 3 years. have them go 1 higher super saiyan.
And no the Naruto timeskip wasn't for the Orichimaru story line. he wanted to do a time skip to make the characters older so he came up with that story to make sense for time skip. Same with the Androids in DBZ. He wanted Gohan older, and maybe also reason to throw in a Vegeta having a kid. So he gave the timeskip of androids coming in 3 years.
-
How do you do a timeskip in OP. The only room for it is at the beginning and end of the storyline… There is also no call for it right now, everything abouts to leap off. And besides they head straight for the next island ASAP when finishing one adventure. PLUS, considering the crew has pretty much been sailing for between a 1/3 to 1/2 of a year (yeah, thats how long someone worked it out remember) to timeskip now would interupt the flow of the story.
Its like parasooting out of the plane and suddenly being on the ground and missing out all the thrills and scares of not experiencing the jump in between.
-
why would we have time skips? Haven't it occured to you guys that the strawhats may have been traveling for more than a year already?
-

It's only been three months.

We don't need the timeskip.
Haven't it occured to you guys that the strawhats may have been traveling for more than a year already?
… Why would that make any difference?
-
O_o Three months? A whole day must move very slow then.
-
a day in OP is 71 hours and a month is 55 days.
=P

It's the Same thing..Same thing.
We already had a time skip, After Shanks skated out of Luffy's hometown.
-

I wouldn't take the Lunar theory too seriously. The evidence is just assumptions based on observations, and there is direct evidence to the contrary, (Coby's growth and Brooke's estimate.)
I wouldn't mind a timeskip, especially if it was before the New World. I know Oda would think of a good reason for it.
-
I think at the beginning of the new world should be better,
something like…
Ussopp : "hey a new island!!!"
Nami : "it's been already 3 months we're here, I hope this island won't be as crazy as the two last one's…"
Ussop :"Yeah reminds me how painful it was"
Francky : "Terrible"
Brooke : "I don't want to see this with my own eyes anymore… HOhoohoho even though I don't have any eyes"
Sanji : "And those… monsters... Haaaaaaaaa how can this be a girl"
Zoro : "I can be even worse…"
Robin : "I'm sure of it"
Chopper : "Haaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!! worse!!!!!! it can be worse!!!!!!!! HEELLLPP!!! SOGEKINGGGGGG!!!!!"
Luffy : " Hahahaha funny!!! It was so much fun!!!"Then TIMESKIP OF 2 ISLANDS, and the adventure isn't breacking too…

Oda comments on Cobys growth negate that as evidence. (was in some SBS i think)
Time needed for the logpose to lock onto the new island after Little Garden negates Brooks estimate as evidence. -

butts in
Epic fail and the certain destruction of a decent series.
Look what it did to Naruto and probably even DBZ.DO NOT WANT TIMESKIP.
-
one piece has been going on for 10 years what thing about this manga even hints at a time skip? and luffy ask brook to hold off from seeing laboon for a year or two…... time skip would break that ... dont see oda breaking something like a promis to that wheal.
-

Time needed for the logpose to lock onto the new island after Little Garden negates Brooks estimate as evidence.I'll have to find that SBS then.
But what do you mean about Little Garden? Brooke probably didn't even go there, as the giants would have remembered, so if anything it means his estimate is too short, because he does not anticipate such islands in the future.edit: Found the SBS. Oda's using summer vacation as an analogy would imply three months, but it does not confirm it, as it is just an analogy. But it does negate the argument against it.
-
D: Hello, Oda-sensei! (murmur murmur (outdoor sounds)) By the way, how do you respond to the charges that the Oda Clinic performed a full plastic surgery on Coby?! (hands two mics over) We'd like to get a comment from Coby, as well. P.N. Mayuko Wakayama of the OP-Loving Saitama Citizens Group
O: He's hit his growth spurt! Haven't you ever seen a boy who comes back from summer vacation looking like a different person?! Boys grow in an instant, you know! He just tightened his muscles up a bit with some good discipline. Right, Coby? Coby: Right!This is from Volume 47 SBS.
Source: http://www.arlongpark.net/Manga/SBS/47Edit: You found it first.
-
because he does not anticipate such islands in the future.
That's what you are assuming. I assumed that he did include things like that in his estimate (The Rumbar pirates seemed to know alot more of the GL then the strawhats when they neterd it). And as the strawhats traveltime does not include any such long waiting periods they can very well have been traveling for only a fraction of what Brook guessed.
But it does negate the argument against it.
That's why I was careful to use that wording and not claim it proved anything. =)
-
I cant imagine that as long as Oda has ideas for travel and islands to visit that he's just gonna timeskip to the end.
The guy has been enjoying it, let him keep it up. His style seems to be about the little things composing the bigger picture, not just the cliff note outlines.
-
Well, I guess it boils down to assumptions and personal preference.
Oh well.
-
why would we have time skips? Haven't it occured to you guys that the strawhats may have been traveling for more than a year already?
The longest they spent anywhere you can work out is Water 7, maybe Alabasta but no time length was put on that for how long they stayed.
http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Mythbusters#Progression_of_Time
This is the best explaination I can pull off for time length. Maybe a bit incorrect but the basics is we've only gone on for 1/3-1/2 the year at the most.
Edit:
In fact it works out to be roughly 40-50 days they've been traveling not including any possible length of time sailing the sea, which in thoery shouldn't add more then a day or two to get between islands… So lets say 2 weeks sailing to make do. That still leaves us at 60-70 days somewhere.
-
who knows, maybe there can be a timeskip.
For example: If ace DOES get executed, than there can be a timeskip like a couple months past or something like that
-

eh? why? are you suggesting the strawhats would just sit around and sulk for those months or why would that time be completely uninteresting?
-
I wouldn't take the Lunar theory too seriously. The evidence is just assumptions based on observations, and there is direct evidence to the contrary, (Coby's growth and Brooke's estimate.)
Both Roman Zaenom and Shillingfurst came up with the same conclusion independently, two years apart from one another. Ubiq countered that growth spurt issue right off the back and Oda supported him in an SBS.
I have no idea what you mean by "Brooke's estimate" though. o_O

Malintex: Brook and the rumbar pirates said they would return to Laboon after 2 years when they had sailed through the Grand Line.
