This arc turned from going into the wrong predictable direction to a new convoluted fun one.
So for me if anything it just got interesting and Oda pulled out a masterclass in execution of everything.
We were going in the direction of previous Dresrossa, Wano and similar arcs where Strawhats are busy running around and chasing separate matchups for 30 chapters.
But now things got spicey and we skipped through the dragging scenes and we ll be updated on the info we need as we go.

RE: Chapter 1109: Interception
I ll say it again. Unless Vegapunk is pulling some next level observation haki feat and wants to catch the WG in the act while they are desperately trying to stop the recording. It makes ABSOLUTELY ZERO sense that the entire recording isnt just put on a nonstop repeat and he lets it rip from the first second.
I think Oda didnt think about such possibility and dropped the ball. People who would want to say such vital information surely would and you can bet that if anyone than the world's greatest brain would come up with that and more....
Clover was killed instantly infront of a shity audience for just attempting to say the name...

RE: One Piece Live-Adaptation Drama Announced
I don't even get what people are nitpicking. We are making an adaptation for "fantasy realism" Merry cant look like a freaking toy in the pirate world in live action.
It looks great. Same for Shanks ship. If you guys are going to get caught up on this set yourself for world of pain and crying watching the live action.

RE: Official Egghead Thread
Right after becoming the yonkou crew?
Right after defeating Kaidou?
Right after awakening / gear 5?
Immediately when facing Kizaru again after the horror of last Shabaody arc?
Losing against the seraphins which are said to be younger not yet developed versions of themselves?
With all the other story wise upcoming bigger hurdles ahead of them?- Akainu
- Blackbeard
- God Knights
- Gorosei
- Imu
And as a grand finale confirming the words of Rob Lucci when he said that Luffy may have a title of a Yonkou but he does not accept him as one?
Not a chance in hell guys.... they may struggle, for story reasons but they are coming on top.

RE: Chapter 1109: Interception
@hideoushorrendous said in Chapter 1109: Interception:
it will be explained once we know what's his DF is all about
the thing that has no explanation is that he looked the same for the past 40 years! Garling was there for comparison and he aged reasonably.
The most problematic thing here is that we need to know that Gorosei are all world known figures. If they managed to stay the same for 40 years characters in OP should know and mention it. Yet besides Ivankov mentioning the immortality surgery for Imu no one says anything about the Gorosei

RE: One Piece Live-Adaptation Drama Announced
I am also very interested what happened with a very important Gol D Roger execution and final last words. Anime did a good job putting it as an opening thus helping people remember what this is about and guiding new viewers in. But one would think that part would be cool for a trailer setting.

RE: Official Egghead Thread
Agreed quite frankly happy this isnt the traditional run around get to the main bad guy arc.

RE: Official Egghead Thread
One more thing guys. The last time WG fought a Yonkou
- It needed/brought 3 admirals not 1
- Brought basically all the VAs and their mothers
- Brought Garp and Sengoku
- Brought the shichibukai
- Had the fortress and the bait set up
- Had the traitor in Squadro
- Had a weakened/sick Yonkou + stab wound
- Had BB crash the party to beat down on WB some more
- Didnt have to fight the worlds greatest scientist and his creations/weapons
Now you can sugar coat it all you want but these guys are underestimating the situation/ SHs power big time.
Forget the part where they sent this armada beforehand, thinking that they will just fight VP. They know fully well SHs are backing him up as well now and they are going forward with the assault.
Luffy just messed up Kaidou 5 seconds after getting the feel for Gear 5.
He is and should rip a new one through Kizaru's backside, which is especially sure to happen since Lucci did such a Shounen thing when he stated he doesnt accept Luffy as a yonkou -> making sure we get to see him in the first row witnessing the biggest shalacking since my home made pancake accident. -

RE: Chapter 1118: The Most Free
Would be cool if for the finale he would figure out how to damage them.

RE: Official Egghead Thread
Yes unless some 4 months hiatus.
We should wrap this arc within next 5 chapters imo. But if we go beyond 10 i will be shocked

RE: Chapter 1111: Sun-Shield

RE: Chapter 1108: Come In, World
Ok here I go with my predictions for the next chapter and a bit foreshadowing.
-
- the info Vegapunk will dump on us wont be super/wont have a big effect on the world. In other words in my humble opinion we will get bluballed.
-
- Luffy wont be casually holding off Kizaru and Saint Saturn in fact I dont think he ll hold them off at all. I think they will be too much to handle. We are yet to see what Kizaru is truely capable off and ssme for Saturn. They will probably start displaying it against Dorry and Broggy.
-
- Zoro's fight is displaying something problematic and I expect it will continue with Seraphin being ultimately released and controlled by the WG being the biggest issue before eventually we get to see Strawhats escape in a NON-YONKOU like fashion.
-
- Bonney will not join the crew. Too many reasons why not.

RE: Chapter 1106: On Your Side
Guys you realize we are fast approaching 50 chapters of Egghead arc.
To put things into perspective
- Drum + impel down together = 50 chapters
- Logue Town + orange Town + Amazon Lilly + little garden is less then Egghead
IN OTHER words man where are those 20-30 chapters arcs

@blue-san said in Monsters One-Shot Official Release:
I have to admit that I was disapointed by it. Expected more than a shallow quite generic story
It's a standalone one-shot Oda did 30 years ago. What were you expecting?
I dont know i guess something more original I guess.
