If Oda said that Impel Down will last 1 year then there is no way that the rest of the crew will not appear in this time.My opinion is that all of them will arrive before the execution.
What do you think?
Strawhat Crew Seperation Speculation

-
…...one word - no
-
SOmeone sugested in the spoiler thread (don't worry, this is not part of the spoilers) that as soon as the CP9 story ends, Oda may use the splash pages to show what the rest of the crew is doing… I think this isa pretty good idea.
Wano predictions: There will be 5 acts; All Straw Hats will get fights, some in Act 4; Big Mom Pirates will arrive; Carrot will have her moment, but won't join; Yamato will be a Kouzuki samurai and Wano's Guardian; Shanks will visit Luffy in Act 5; Next arc is Mary Geoise.

The downpart of that idea is that if you want to make it in time each character would need to have at max. 5 title pages. And for characters such as the Strawhat's this is just too less screen time considering that a title page can't cover the interaction a regular page can. Still better then nothing.

Perhaps it is but I don't really like the idea of the crew being split up for an entire year even if they all have become a lot stronger when they finally meet. Luffy might be the antagonist in this series but I've really grown acostumed to seeing the entire crew in adventures and I start missing the input of crew. Not saying the new characters aren't interesting off course but I miss the lies and jokes of Ussop, the ~chwwwaaaaan's~ of sanji, the drunken sleepiness of zoro, the smartness and smile of Robin, the Beri-eyes of nami, Franky's Supaaaah and Brookes skulljokes, Choppers cuteness and so on. . .

oda said that the impel down arc lasts for one year? is that certain and where did he state that?

At this years Jump Fiesta indeed, look it up, Gregg has a topic about it where it states that it will last a year and seeing Oda apparently has bad timing skills it will probably be even longer

Yes, it's better than nothing. Maybe Oda could just set them up, so that when he catch up to them, each of their stories is already ongoing.

Maybe the "Impel Down" arc doesn't mean "The Adventures inside Impel Down". It might include the other Strawhats coming to Impel Down.
-
how long did it take luffy with handcock to get to ID ? because the rest of the SH should of landed on they islands before luffy did since he was last to fly off so means when we saw where they are was a flash back of some kinds meaning them all ready be on the way back ???

It was me who said it, and I was saying that they could be featur–- hell, might as well quote myself:

Once the CP9 Cover Story ends, it's more likely we will get five~eight or so "Where are they now?" cover pages. […] But I have really been wanting the next "Where are they now?" to feature the SHP's. I think it is more than likely especially now that we know where they all went respectively. Edit: But I mean one cover page per Straw Hat (spanning 8 chapters total), followed by a color spread and the next Cover Story.
I mentioned this earlier – along side robby -- that after cover story's we usually get either 5-8 chapters of "Where are they now?" covers or random shots of the SHP's in random places with random animals. After that, the next story could be Bonney, Capone, Law, Kidd, Lola, Foxy, or even Saint Charlos (lol; I hope not). Those are the last enemies I can think of who don't have or could be given a cover story. As for the "Where are the now?" covers that likely will follow the CP9 story, I am hoping we will get one for each of the Straw Hats.

A "where are they know" would be even more pointless since we know where they are actually and what they're doing more or less.

But we don't. That's like saying the "Where are they now?" for Paulie and Iceburg were pointless. We know (for the most part) where they were; but it is more like "What are they doing right now?" Plus, we know where they were 4+ days ago. We don't know where they are now. Oda could easily do something with that, and I would love to see it, but who knows what will happen. I suppose with all the current events, it is more likely we will either jump to another cover story with other characters or we will get the one shots with SHP's and animals in random places.

i'M PRETTY SURE oDA SAID THE RE$t OF dA CREW died of Lupus

Zik Of The 7 Swords: Vision? What do you know about my vision? My vision would turn your world upside down, tear asunder your illusions, and send the sanctuary of your own ignorance crashing down around you. Now ask yourself, Are you ready to see that vision?
-
too be honest i currently don't care…........
this arc needs to focus on luffy, it would be nice to see him and ace together again
as for the crew, i would prefer them to have their own small adventure and meet up later, which would be cool... coz that way we would be surprised by a new move/ability
they might show if the whole crew fight again.and even better we could have some well timed flashbacks to give the story more depth, as we've seen with all the important parts of each arc
Oda loves a good flashback
-
Sorry but after that terrible display against Kuma, the next time i see them together again I WANT TO SEE NOTHING BUT ASS KICKING AND BADASS NEW MOVES, NO QUESTIONS ASKED.
-
Never predict Oda. I highly doubt the other SH would be in a cover story. Too cheesy. Little dialogue. Not much detail.
-
But we don't. That's like saying the "Where are they now?" for Paulie and Iceburg were pointless.
That's different because we didn't see what they were doing in the main story itself.
Anyways I know what you mean but still I'd consider it a bad idea to waste potential there. A title page doesn't have dialogs and summerizes more then fleshing out the sequential parts like a strip can do. You can't really flesh out things here which for side characters is ok, but for the main cast disappointing for my taste.
-
ODA says that ID arc would last for one year but he didn't say we will not see the SH crew in this arc or for one year. ODA will surprise us once again, Im feeling it right now!!.
-
That's different because we didn't see what they were doing in the main story itself.
It is the same though. Unless we see what they are doing between 4+ days ago and their meeting up with each other, we won't see "what they were doing". I assume they are on their way somewhere. Don't know where, but somewhere. Maybe Impel Down (no), maybe Saboady Archipelago (most likely), maybe Marine HQ (could be), or anywhere else. Who knows. The "Where are they now?" covers don't give out very much (if any) information, so it would be a good way to remind us that the crew is alive and wel – and maybe on their way somewhere -- without giving away any important information. Imagine a single page with Perona yelling at Zoro (who is still in bandages) for walking the wrong way and looking confused. Or Nami in some sort of contraption that is bringing her down from the Sky Island she is on. Etc.

Well that's my whole point. It doesn't give away pertinent information, but gives us a sense of relief since they have been AFK for so long. I could care less if Oda does it or not, since I like almost all the cover pages he does, but I think it could be a clever way to give out the tiniest bit of information. No matter though, just my personal taste and thoughts. Don't think it will happen necessarily, but I think it would be cool to have the SHP's cross over into cover art that serves a purpose to the story and isn't just a random setting with random animals.
-
I'm guessing that Oda will occassionally hop back and forth between the different crew members. Maybe even re uniting some of them along the way.
However I have a feeling it'll be a while before they meet up with Luffy again
-

That's exactly what I'd consider a waste of potential. It's too few information to do the Strawhat's justice. I prefer for it to be rather done a bit more elaborate or not at all.

I rather see Oda use his title pages to focus on characters we didn't see in a long time then giving us the briefest of glimpses at the main cast. It's a waste of space and potential.
On the other hand though between every title page "arc" there's non-canon-glimpses of the Strawhats in doing random stuff. And these pages are bound to come once the CP9 story is over. So if Oda uses them to for Strawhat adventures I wouldn't mind since you would actually trade non-canon stuff for canon stuff. But I wouldn't like the Strawhats to take the spotlight of somebody else.
-
So you think that Impel Down AND Fishman Island together will last as long as Amazon Lily?
Amazon Lily "arc" lasted from 19 of september till 19 of November so exactly 2 months. So my answer is no I dont believe it will take them to get to NW 2 months.
I personaly believe we should enter new world in about 6 months or so.
As for impel down happening I expect it to last for about 2 month more

My take on that is that nothing of their happenings will be shown untill they meet again and then we ll be seeing flashbacks…
Its the most "economical" way to go with it and probably the best as well, well for me it certanly would be

…What? That's what I have been saying! O_O Between every Cover Story we have "non-canon-glimpses" -- aka: Random images of the Strawhats in random places with random animals -- and (lately) a few "Where are the now?" covers. I was suggesting that Oda use the space between the end of the CP9 Cover Story and the next Cover Story to have canon glimpses of each [missing] Straw Hat. Rather than have the non-canon-glimpses and then a few "Where are they now?" covers, it could be a clever way to blend, merge, and utilize this moment in time to show the progress of the others (or something). Similar to how he has used the cover stories to give us bits of information of other characters and then brought them back into the story, he could do the same with the absent crew members. In any case, we have narrowed this down to personal taste. You understand me, and I understand you. Either way, I am sure I will be happy with the outcome

I blame you for writing your stuff so unsexy that I didn't even want to deveour every single letter with my eyes while trying to read it.Nah, this answer only leads to more talkback. Ok, let's go with my bad.^^ -

lol good one

Luffy might be the antagonist in this series but I've really grown acostumed to seeing the entire crew in adventures and I start missing the input of crew.
It's protagonist. Just a little heads up. :happy:
-
after Oda made a "sketch of Jimbei Greg "resketched" I dont believe anything he may have said and similar fairytales…imo we ll see them coming to New world in few months...
Hm ?
-
Hm ?
He's making a broad ass judgement off a sketch of a sketch. Like even If I got to see Oda's sketch I doubt I'd rely on it heavily for the finished product of what Jimbei looks like.
For all we know the crappy drawing of a shipwright by Luffy could've been Oda's early sketches of Franky lol….......
Anyway I'd love to see Oda take on the challenge of no crew for a year. I already got the feeling from what we've seen in the last half a dozen chaps that he just might pull it off when it comes to Luffy getting out of ID with Ace and then w/e else he adds in(execution/war). I'll have to see if I get that feeling of "Damn where's Zoro/Usopp/Robin, etc." even thought I'm not really fond of many of the SHs individually except for Sanji and Brook somewhat.
-

There's never been a doubt in my mind that that's exactly what it was. 8 times out of 10, Luffy gets whatever he wants. Same thing with the lion he wanted mounted on the front of the ship.
-
i think impel down arc not just mean the prison break but also what Ace, jimbe, hancock and the other ¨important¨inmates will do after breaking out
is like the serie prison break, they already out of prison but the show is still named prison break
get it -
@Guybrush:
how long did it take luffy with handcock to get to ID ? because the rest of the SH should of landed on they islands before luffy did since he was last to fly off so means when we saw where they are was a flash back of some kinds meaning them all ready be on the way back ???
2-3 days I think due to the marine ship?
It also depends on where the islands the other Strawhats landed are.
noone for sure knows how far all the islands are right now from Impel,or the
Archipeligo.
@flandrian15:Perhaps it is but I don't really like the idea of the crew being split up for an entire year even if they all have become a lot stronger when they finally meet.

An entire year is a long time without the rest of the crew, I'm guessing there will be inserts here and there about a couple of crew members and how they're doing. Either that or he'll alternate chapters on crew members periodically. Can you imagine what Sanji is going to look like after a year on the transvestite island? (though time is more relative in the manga)

Well as far as the crew knows they're still all heading back too shabody and after they all spend a little time powering up they'll meet right back where they started, and right where whitebeard will soon be. I think they'll proabaly hook up with shanks or whitebeard and ride with them all the way to impel down to rescue (pretty common theme in OP) Luffy and ace.
-
Hm ?
Just ment to say if Oda draws a sketch and says thats Jimbei and we get a totally diffrent Jimbei and Oda says its gona take a year it may take few months or few years, basically its better not to rely on what mr Oda says like many of people on these boards seem to do. Its almost as if one of the holy pillarsthat in 1 year the arc will be done.
So thus I just take a wild guess and say in about half a year we ll get to NW

I find it strange how somebody could actually consider that a prison break of what seems to be a One Piece version of a combination of Alcatraz and Guantanamo to be dealt with rather quick. I mean this is serious shit in the making right now here. There's no way something like that will be dealt with on the fly.
-
He's actually the protagonist.
According to this manga I guess, but by today's standards a pirate would be an antagonist obviously. So far though Luffy + crew has shown basically NO signs of being a pirate. They've done basically nothing similar to pirates back in the day. They've attacked the government, but they haven't just pillaged villages, searched for buried treasure, kidnap women, etc.

This is just one sub-aspect of the pirate life. What makes a pirate is to obey no government order and freely roam the world seas. What you mention definitely can be a part of such a life but isn't necessary. And the Strawhats are just one rare example of such pirates. But they are real pirates none the less.
