Volume 60 Prediction Thread
-
There's no Garp on the cover, man.
-
For a second I thought it was Garp at the bottom right . Yeah I mistook Dadan with Garp .
Also…..why not have Dadan with Dogura and Magura at the bottom , the Goa nobles and Bluejam on top and Sabo and co in the middle ? This cover looks all kinds of messy .
And on NF lots of people say this volume is gonna sell poorly because "the flashback sucks" . What's the general concensus here ?
-
YESSSS!! It may not end on 597, but it still ends on 594, which is good enough.
Personally the flashback couldnt be "too" extraordinary. Remember, luffy was a no name pirate back in the beginning. I liked the flashback btw.
-
That cover is kick ASS!! Almost makes up for the number of chapters.
Am I the only one who thinks Garp should be where Makino is? -
How about looking just one page back??
Ah great. Thanks, I missed that post. I was really hoping for "Efforts Towards Glory" would have made a stellar volume title, but I guess "My Brother" as a chapter is more pivital because of Luffy recounting the things he lost and remembering his crew.
Oh look. The manga list wikipedia updated while I got my lunch too. Superb.
-
Honestly I don't like this one . At all . Has no semblence of structure and doesn't even use the flashback characters all that much .

Well, there's always Volume 61!
-
Yeah like I can so see the mountain bandits , Bluejam and co making it in there .
Especialy given they don't even figure in chapters 595 and onwards .
-
well…not to be spoilery, ya know but....he's kinda DEAD.
Sooooo???? that's a dumb way of thinking. Because one of your favourite character disappear you have to feel the serie is ruined???
well wathever…
On topic the cover is great. I wasn't expecting Rayleigh
-
Reading through the flashback I re-discovered this nugget .

I mean….this is just gold !
-
Yeah, I wouldn't exactly say Oda's dialogue was running on all four cylinders during those chapters.
-
No . Look at the bottom left corner .
-
@No:

Yeah ?

"will they survive?" .

@No:
"will they survive?" .
Haha… maybe the Japanese public is EXTREME gullible. Me thinks not... but that is a good catch! Stupid teasers.
-
@No:
"will they survive?" .
Oh, I see what you're talking about.
-
It was a prety big laughing stock on the forums in it's time . Strange how quickly people forget .

Well, adolescents, which is the "objective" target audience One Piece is aiming at, want lots of action, kick-ass scenes, and epicness.
This flashback, apart from being quite obscure and dark (it still had lots of humor, but remember Porschemy brutally beating Luffy, and adult pirates trying to kill 2 kids, the "disease" sick looking people on the Grey Area, etc…), didn't had much action, and the little it featured, was between not very powerfull characters. So, yeah, I could understand it not selling much, and Naruto actually doing better.
For me, it was good. I loved how we were introduced to the Goa Kingdom, there was a LOT if information, and I think it was obvious that Oda enjoyed that, creating the different areas of the kingdom, etc...
It had good characters (Dadan turned out to be very cool, and so was Sabo. Bluejam and co. made for some lesser but enjoyable villains), and we saw the Revolutionary Army (with Kuma), a Tenryubitoo, and all while looking like the Tekokinkreet anime. So, for me, it was cool. Not the best flashback, but surely the one Oda putted more effort into. -
Decent cover..
a bit to much people on it for my taste.BVut hey Makino finally on it..wuhuu who would have thought that hehe.
-
@No:
"will they survive?" .
Literally the best cliffhanger One Piece has ever had.
-
Wow, I didn't expect too see the cover so soon! What a nice surprise! =D
The title really fits, but "Sabo's Ocean" is still better!I really like that cover :happy:
And the flashback:ninja:So, looks like Dadan has orange hair, but it's hard to see Sabo's :<
I'm glad to see the official colours for those two characters! X3 -
@Yuugi's:
Kishimoto explained that he wanted to bring the reader the entire Sasuke v. Itachi confrontation. The volume actually has a pretty good cliffhanger as such with Sasuke declaring he will destroy Konoha.
Yeah maybe if you sucked enough to care about all that horrible plot.
@No:

Says the guys who thinks the solution is cramming tons of characters in random corners of the image.

Actually that would be you, now posting things you would never have used before after being assailed by me on the Religion Thread.
Thanks for playing.
-
I like the cover. Garp would have made a nice addition if it fit, but besides that it's perfectly fine.
-

Me? Assailed? Never.
I just didn't want to get caught up in a neverending debate over religion.
Also, I've been dying to use that meme ever since I found it. -
I fail to see the link between Ace fanboy's/girl's and the fact that the serie would be ruined.
Hoo-boy am I late to reply to this.
Actually it was a cheap joke aimed at a certain sect of the fanbase. Just felt like a good opening sentence, thats all.
-
Loved the cover. Definitely, my favorite cover 'till now.
-
Now that's a nice cover. Love Sabo's blue cloak.

Sorry for this, but I have to say…
The native circulation is 200 million, not 2 billion.
In the east, people group numbers by 4 digits, so sometimes it'll cause some mistake while translating.
-
Great cover!! While I would've most liked to see 597 as the final chapter, 594 isn't bad.
I was really most concerned with 595 - 597 staying together in either volume 60 or 61…so if this ended on 595 it would've been much worse imo.
594 is a semi-decent way to end volume 60. It only looks bad because 597 would be a perfect ending. But it's fine really. 595 would've been bad.
Expected Ace, Luffy, and Sabo...but really pleasantly surprised by the inclusion of Makino and Dragon.
Also, Luffy is back to his traditional red shirt!
-
2 Billion is practically 1/3 of the world's population, of course it wasn't that lol.
-
YES YES YES YES YES the cover is AMAZING u Dadan has pretty orange hair!! Now I can finally get my commission made FUFUFUF xD
-
Surprised that Sabo's clothing was blue, always assumed it was just black.
-
Holy fuck for the Makino love there.
-
After fighting toe and nail for a woman, you beging to love her or hate her.
Reffer to the character tournament
Makino vs Kizaru and Makino vs Whitebeard -
I thought Sabo would have a black jacket.
I love this cover, though. Nice colors, it's pretty full, Sabo is on it. I just really like it xD
-
@JERK:
2 Billion is practically 1/3 of the world's population, of course it wasn't that lol.
About this figure : I had a diferent idea . How many volumes had actualy been printed until now ? The last couple make up over 10 million if I remember correctly .
-
What a great looking cover. The choice of characters on it might be a bit questionable but apart from that no complaints from me. Much, much better than the last one.
-
No, Luffy and Ace will die and this whole series has been an alternate reality. (j/k…like this would be REBORN or RAVE)
Honestly it's a nice cover and it does what it should, and heck...happy we get Makino balancing Dadan as the "mother influences".
-
I feel like its been awhile since we've received that color for a volume cover. It's reminiscent of volume 9. Really nice!
-
@JERK:

Lol but its still like 1/30ths of the worlds population, which is crazy anyway.

1/3000 * 16 CHAR

Good eye, I never would have noticed that.
-
1/3000 * 16 CHAR
if there are 200 million copies in print, and there are about 6.8 billion people, how is that 1/3000? 200 mil x 5 is one billion. multiply that 5 by 7 and you get 35. So yeah 1/35. I mean we all know people have multiple volumes
-
Hm, didn't realized it either. So we have the fatherly figures on the top, the motherly on the bottom and the brothers in the middle. That's cool!
-
One hell of an amazing cover. Dragon of all people - it's his first personal cover. Rayleigh, Sabo, Dadan are just as welcome.
Oda seems to be on fire with these thing lately - starting with 58, all the covers simly rock.

I disagree, Garp was more important to Luffy than Monkey "I Have a father?" D. Dragon.
And Raileigh took up that part in the next volume.
