RE: Chapter 718: "The Riku Royal Army in the Flower Fields"
Also…still puzzled about why the Red Hawk adds fire to the attack...ok, we saw Ace's silhouette but I prefer to think that the punch takes fire because of attrition with the air/sea due to force/speed than for a mystical Ace reason.
There was no Ace silhouette in the manga for Red Hawk

RE: Shiki, Zephyr and the canon timeline.
This is why I hated the idea of Z and Strong World. Good movies, but non canon with canon characters. Hate it. Next movie better justbe stand alone.
Here's my thought. The only reason Z and Shiki are canon is to make the movies appealing. They were made canon and brought into the storyline just for the movies. I'd call them more "canonesque" characters rather than canon. Sure they may be in flashbacks in the future like in the admirals past.
So basically the movies are standalone but Oda incorperated the characters into the actual story just for the sake of it. It's not like Oda added a really "canon" villian to a movie like Blackbeard.

RE: Post Time-skip Gear Second in the Anime
I agree with RedX, the problem with how the anime handles Gear 2 is that it makes fights look silly and inconsistant.
In the manga Luffy can instantly through a jet pistol with no downtime for activation, and be in normal form right after then. Then proceed to use normal attacks on an opponent.
Howver, if they wanted the same thing in the anime, they would show Luffy pumping his arm but going full body G2, through the jet pistol, and then he would have to turn off G2 to continue bashing an opponent with normal attacks. Now through in some more jet attacks after normal attacks, he would have to G2 again.
And look at what Luffy can do with G3 now:
!
To the very left you can see Oda highlighting that Luffy can instantly retract a fully blown up arm. How do you think Luffy can do this? For me, the answer is the same as how Luffy can use G2 without pumping. Whats your answer?

RE: One Piece 712 : Violet
What has me most curious is why Dofla had CP0 come to DressRosa and inform the populous that it was a mistake and that he didnt leave the warlords. Oh, but shhhhh. Its supposed to be a secret! That feels like bad writing to me. Dofla is willing to fool the entire world but cant let his own country be in the dark about his important plan for a few hours? It just seems foolhardy to risk tipping off the enemy that something isnt right. Sanji could have still found out and informed Law and everything played out exactly as it did. Except in the Violet flashback its Violet hearing about the plan from Dofla or Trebel.
I dont know. Just seems like bad writing to me.
Because if he actually resigned from the Shichibukia, he wouldn't be king of Dressrosa anymore, and he wouldn't be able to throw the tournament.

RE: One Piece Chapter 710 "To Green Bit"
pass the basic didn't mean it needed to be a hig-level haki. I mean if Oda plan on giving him such level in haki, there was no reason to make Rayleigh say that 2 years would be kind of short to learn even the basic.
Basic use of haki doesn't equate to low amount of Haki. Even with knowing just the basics the amount of Haki Luffy has is a lot.
-
RE: One Piece Chapter 710 "To Green Bit"
@CCC:
I feel like the "high-level" part of Bellamy's comment probably is more along the lines of "Wow you even have King's Haki, which people know about because you used it during the war to take down thousands of mook Marines and Ace's executioners, and information that major can't avoid being spread via newspapers around the world, no matter how much the government wouldn't want people knowing," and not "Your color of armaments/observation is really special. Your hand turned REALLY black/you totally predicted those guys' movements that one time on FI/PH and wait how the fuck do I even know about this?"
Or every high level OP character from now on has built-in Haki scouters in their heads and Bellamy felt it when Luffy cheered for him as he was getting wrecked.
You can sense someone's haki with Color of Observation, and Bellamy has been in close vicinity of Luffy so he can feel it.
One of the most prime examples of this, granted not even completely canon, was Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji sensing's Z's from the movie. I can't imagine that that effect wouldn't be consistent with how it is in the manga.

RE: One Piece Chapter 710 "To Green Bit"
Also, Law saying his fruit drains his stamina is a weakness in the same way running drains anyone's stamina. It's a limit sure, but not much. This just means that to Law switching things around is the same thing as exerting yourself in a fight. It's been said before, yes, but he's just holding back for Donflamingo.
I just said basically the same thing, I can't believe people don't understand this.
-
RE: One Piece Chapter 710 "To Green Bit"
I think everyone here misunderstood the thing about Law's quote. Of course using abilities make you tired.
It's nothing special that he loses energy with his ability, he's just stating it makes him tired. Same thing with everyone else. When luffy fights he gets tired, when Robin fights she gets tired, it's no difference. It's no surprise using abilities make you tired. I can't believe people didnt see this, it doesn't even apply to just ability users. Zoro using his swordsman abilities makes him tired, and Sanjis kicks make him tired.
He doesn't want to fight beforehand so he keeps all of his energy.

RE: Chapter 709: King Punch
@The:
He's the strongest thing overall now probably, not when Whitebeard was alive. He was only the strongest creature (non-human) alive. There wouldn't of been 2 different "strongest" titles if this wasn't the case.
And I bet there's a new strongest human title holder out there that could beat him cough Dragon cough, cough Shanks cough.
Kaido's the strongest living thing alive, meaning he's strongest of the living world IMO. It's just easier to translate living thing as creature because it makes more sense given Nami's reaction.

Can anybody that has seen the movie confirm if this is true?
I haven't seen it but you have it backwards.
His name is Zephyr, the superhero he wants to be is Z. Zetto is nothing, it's just how the letter Z is said by japanese people.

RE: General 'Haki' Discussion
CrystalShip I am not being rude, but is English your first language? I feel like there is a miscommunication.
What I am trying to say is, yes, Garp has haki, he is a Vice Admiral, he has haki.
But Haki is not needed to hit Marco. He is a Zoan with a physical body. He can heal after certain hits, but having Haki will not dictate if you can actually touch him.
If anyone else has a better way to explain this point please jump in.
I did just above, he's a tangible bird that's covered in flame feathers.
The flames heal his body.
-
RE: General 'Haki' Discussion
When he's on phoenix form, haki IS needed to hurt him, that was obvious the moment Kizaru's light rays passed through him, so, Garp used haki in that panel. C'mon people.
Except that Kizaru's light rays didn't pass through him, they hit him but he regenerates right after.
His phoenix mode isn't just flames, it's a tangible bird covered in flames. C'mon man.

RE: One Piece Blue Deep, new One Piece book (March 2012)
@Kumanri:
Here are the remaining 2 Haki types.
Armament type
Surrounding the body, the user's offense and defense capabilities increase!
Armament haki is the type that improves the user's attack and defense like a weapon. Using this haki, the person can defend himself from a Devil Fruit user's attacks and even attack the DF user in return!!"The greatest and only means to counter DF users!!"
Comment at picture:
The Armament Haki is effective even against Logia users without a physical form!!The 3 main uses for the Armament Haki!
Protects the body like an armour or shield!!
The most basic way to use this haki is to surround the body with haki to protect against an opponent's attack. Not only does it protect the users from physical attacks, it can even seamlessly defend the user against DF attacks!!Used for attacks by increasing the offensive power!
By concentrating the haki on a specific part of the body, it can be used in attacks!! The Armament ability increases the hardness of the fist or leg, thus transforming the limb into a weapon. The destructive power is incredible.Comment for picture:F
The destructive power increases incredibly when the DF ability is combined with Armament Haki!!Lodging it with a weapon!
This is the classic use of the Armament Haki. The Haki is imbued into a weapon on hand to greatly increase its power. An Armament Haki imbued weapon is effective against enemies who can neutralise the attacks from the rubber man or Logia type DF users. It can cause great damage to the opponent!Comment for picture:F
An arrow imbued with haki is powerful enough to shatter a large tree trunk.Perception Type
Sharpen the 5 senses and senses presence!
This type of haki allows the user to sense the presence of living things and emotional changes surrounding him. It is not used only in fights but is effective in helping the user foresee dangers and evade them!
Comment for picture:
A person with Perception Haki is very skilled at evading attacks and can perceive the opponent's movement even with his eyes closed!! The user can also swiftly evade an attack on his blind spot.The different effects of the Perception Haki
Foresee the enemy's moves!
The user reads the opponent's mind and can sense his next move! It is an ability that can allow the user to avoid an enemy's attacks, foresees movements to land an attack and react to all kinds of situations.The "Mantra" is also a Perception Haki
Eneru and Aisa et al are people who possess the Perception Type Haki!! Eneru combines the haki powers together with his Goru Goru DF in order to grasp any situations on Skypeia in a blink of an eye.Grasping the surroundings!
By releasing Haki in all directions, the user can grasp the positions of all surrounding living objects without actually seeing them. As the skill and precision levels of the user increase, he can even gauge the extent of his opponent's prowess.Comment for picture:
As the user's ability gets better, his perception area will also expand!Ability to hear unspoken words from others' minds!
The user has the uncanny ability to sense the hidden sadness, anger in people even if their voices or attitudes are not let out! When the ability to sense such emotions is too strong, the haki user may also be overly affected by such emotions…!!Comments for picture:
Coby was emotionally traumatised by the overwhelming sadness he sensed in the war.So perception Haki works like en from HxH!
-
RE: One Piece Blue Deep, new One Piece book (March 2012)
**Advanced stage
Using intimidation to cause others to lose consciousness
A true conqueror who possesses the power of the mind, body and spirit can release haki in all directions by merely intensifying his aura!! Such an aura is strong enough to shake ships and defeat seasoned fighters without even crossing swords…!!what does Oda mean with this last words >>> ???
" without even crossing swords "**All it means is without a fight…...

RE: Questions That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread

RE: Dumb Predictions
There are sky kings(just like sea kings, but they fly) that only roam around deep into New World. They are much more vicious and stronger than their sea counterparts. They aren't documented because only people who have traveled far into the New World have seen them, and that's why it's hard to get to Raftel even without pirates stopping you.
Myths and legends are created when one of the sky kings wander out of the New World and some bystander sees them.
There are also sky monsters/beasts that are smaller than the sky kings, like Hody's band of sea monsters.
Both sky kings and sky monsters can dive into water and swim. Sky kings can eat sea kings, sea kings can eat sky monsters, and sky monsters can eat sea monsters.

RE: Funimation dvd discussion II ( UPDATED 8/4/12, FIRST POST FOR F.A.Q)
They're adding random dub episodes every week. Like fan favorites or something like that. I imagine if 206 is added it will be for paid subscribers only. Or FUNimation might do what VIZ's online plethora does, and add 206 for free but 207+ will be for subscribers, in HD.
But other than that I don't plan on seeing it tonight. Though if it does happen I certainly won't complain!
Rest easy, my friend. Our struggle is over
Actually, the week before they put up 205, there was 204 as most recent, then 203 the previous week for a couple weeks down the past.
I'm hoping this means 206 this week.

RE: Things That You Would Like to See in the Manga
I'd like to see a tournament arc, I loved tournaments in like YYH, HXH, and DBZ.
Even though it wouldn't really fit in the story, if I recall correctly during the Davy Back Fights they mentioned "Pirate Island" in the New World or something and there are competitions like the Davy Back Fights, so if this was indeed true they could hold a tournament competition there.
I googled "Pirate Island" for One Piece and nothing came up, so maybe it never said anything about it, but idk why I remember it.

RE: Hunter x Hunter
@RobbyBevard:
That was just a "for example". It carries from the previous sentence.
"If he forces the price onto someone else, there wouldn't be a problem. But Killua will do it the wrong way."
He's just saying that Killua is doing it the opposite way, without the safety, he isn't saying that Killua is actually bringing someone else along.
I guess I was right (not exactly right because we haven't seen it all). He's talking Alluka so he can have someone else wish it.
-
RE: Hunter x Hunter
@RobbyBevard:
No, thats just what the older brother suggested to do. To make a wish then have someone else pay the price, and the risk.
You don't need someone else to ask the wish to be responsible for the next set of pesterings. In fact, usually you would just leave after that and it would be someone else's problem.
The problem is that Killua ISN'T doing that. (Or so his brother assumes.) He's making the big wish AND paying for it, even though he doesn't have to. Which is why its so dangerous.
Well i know it said that he would pay for the wish, but on this page it says he'll have someone else make it for him, and he'd pay for it.

RE: Hunter x Hunter
Did people not read the part that he was going to deal with the pesterings after someone else wishes for his wish? But no one came with him so I don't really understand who else could make the wish.

RE: Chapter 645: "Death Is Also Revenge"
@Baou:
Well,in the attack he used in this chap,it was only one arm he used to fight.First was elephant gun,then he goes back for round two and with the same arm,does a one-armed gatling.Maybe two-armed elephant gatling is an entirely different animal….Like...whale lol.
No, it's definitely two-armed, as you can see him transferring the air to his left arm on this page http://mangastream.com/read/one_piece/89182735/11 on the third to last panel. It hurts him because the wound is there.
-
RE: Chapter 644: "To Zero"
as a cabin boy ? =D
i hope luffy can get new attackes with the initial RED, just like "JET" and "Giganto"
and it seems like his new Post-TS attacks are all animal themed, is it cause of teh island he was training on ?
You answered your own question, other attacks wont get red because it was only for the animal theme of "red hawk." This also fits a gun theme too with all the other attacks, "elephant gun" and "snake shot." (bullet for snake shot)
-
RE: 521: ''The Battle Begins! Witness the Training's Results!''
While I do wish it was just his left arm going G2, it may have been more embarrassing if they did that, because in the episode Luffy used jet pistol with his right arm instead of his left….
Anime
!
! Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Manga!
I also don't like how he still had to "pump" his arm. What about when he instantly goes into g2 for an attack?
! After every g2 attack in the manga, he goes out of g2 because it was only shown on the limb. But if it's actually full body, whats the point in exiting when your still fighting?
-
RE: 521: ''The Battle Begins! Witness the Training's Results!''
I'll admit, I had a hard time enjoying the first half of the episode thanks to Takagi's art being as exaggerated and distorted as ever.
Then came the second half. That, was really fun, and it was really sweet hearing the full version of We Go!, even if it was being talked over. I was kind of surprised to see the ''Pirate King'' scene get an animation bump like that, though I really hope those weird-looking shots of Luffy's feet are redrawn for the DVD, since that was very distracting.
Gear Second part was completely boss.
I agree, his feet looked horrid and it felt really awkward watching the feet part.
-
RE: Hunter x Hunter
I don't get it. What if you wish to not have any consequences when she pesters you?
Then it'd be worthless to ask her anything. It might make the next "pesterings" worse, or it might not affect them at all. I doubt it would make them better though. Plus, if you want to go to her for a wish, that wish would still be separate from what you want to ask her, so you'd still be pestered.
Oh. For future wishes, it's possible you could just not gain anything anymore, or it might not work at all. Technically, we don't actually know how far the nen ability extends, and messing with its own rules could not work.
No, pesterings only depend on the last wish granted, so if they asked for no consequences the pesterings would go back to things like "upsy daisy."
You can only wish for something after the pesterings, so if you fufilled 3, only then can you wish for no consequences for yourself, but it wont do anything because the pesterings were already dealt with.
So no wish means easy pesters for the next person.
