"I'll just let him discover it on his own, lol"

Well, Luffy did make it clear to Raleigh that he didn't want him to spoil anything about his adventure when Usopp asked.

I just watched a Wanokuni episode, and it is the first One Piece anime I have watched in a long time. At some point, I lost interest in the waning quality and over use of still frames, and dragging out scenes. I have to say, this looks amazing! The art looks much crisper and more colorful, and there seemed to be less "time-waste". What's changed in the last few years?

@wolfwood:

Reading old Greg posts feels like flashing back to that crazy fun guy you used know but grew up and got the suit and suitcase filled with responsibilities. Oh the hardships of growing old on an anime forum. The men who knew the board back then yadda yadda reminiscing like an old man.

Amen, brother. Those were the days, I tell ye.

@Long:

Very nice chapter and another one where we didnt change venues despite us having a ton of subplots
I'm liking the shogun more and more for how much POS he is, and idk the ugly design kinda blends into being scary

Cool that Robin had an insurance plan. I was pretty sure she had a trick up here sleeves but she reacted really fast to avoid being hurt via her clone being hurt and disappearing it.

I really like Komurasaki, I didnt have any problem with her before and while she's not super nice and friendly she has some sort of moral code about her. I like this development and she doesnt have to be super nice to be a good person.

Now Robin is escaping and kyoshiro has drawn his sword. I wonder who is gonna make an appearance here to diffuse the situation.

Interestingly enough how we now have 5 subplots

Kinemon's subplot
Zoro's subplot
Luffy's subplot
Palace subplot
Sanji's subplot

But things feel more conmected than they did at dressrosa

Don't forget Chopper and Big Mom subplot!

@Jabra:

I had to google "backlog", with that you mean every single volume released so far, right? So if you subscribe you have access to everything online? And the recent chapters are going to be free as well?

That's crazy. I wish I wouldn't live in the third world country called Germany. Sadly I know very little about internet things and how to cheat myself around barriers and stuff, and of course I don't know if there would be any legal consequences for me if I did. I need to look into this, thanks.

You should get A VPN anyway. They're good for a lot of stuff. Cheap, too. I watched the whole world cup on ZDF and ARD with a VPN. German commentators are so much better than American ones.

No surprise Orochi is a dragon, since "Orochi" is a dragon, but a SMILE hydra model? That is going to be hilariously interesting. Looking forward to it. Liking the plot development of our new subset of strawhats, and looks like they'll see some action soon! Hopefully, Sanji will get serious and have some clever plans, and Robin will do her spy stuff–maybe even show off some new Revolutionary Army skills.

That look from Sanji is the first thing to make me want to change my avatar since Ivankov/Dr. Frankenfurter.

@flandrian15:

So Sabo was very close to Enel than I guess going by that logic?

He's close to Dragon, though, whose storm fruit might be able to impart it, were this conjecture to be true.

@Greg:

It seems like a simple task but believe me, keeping track of a series in two languages at once is a job in and of itself (^o^)

Were it to be made a job, you would be a shoe-in.

@Brack:

My first thought for Kamazou was that he's Killer unmasked given the choice of weapon and the fact he's one of the Kid-Hawkins-Apoo alliance not accounted for post-Kaido suicide attempt.

I love it. Great conjecture!

@.access:

Shamisen lady is back. I suspect she will never enter the story until the arc is over, she finishes playing, puts her mask down and reveals to be Tama singing the story of Kaido downfall to her public 10 years from now. You read it here first.

Genius. I love it.
