Well, at least I'll say I will purchase this when it comes out because it would be all new content in the New World Proper, and will be the debut of many characters in the English Dub, but all I can still say is, why? So much of the story is gonna be skipped, and I've been waiting so long for the Punk Hazard. They've confirmed they've been working on it, so what the hell?

RE: 858: ''Another Pinch! Gear Fourth vs. Peerless Donuts''
Next week has to be the only appearance of 43-year old Big Mom. Been looking forward to the anime animating that part.

RE: Funimation DVD Discussion IV (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
I got Fishman Island DVDs up to the beginning of the Flashback.
I've been wanting to buy the DVDs this year, but man, its not worth it to me yet until Punk Hazard is out because I gotta purchase at least 3 or so because I import DVDs through Amazon. Its cheaper in the long run for me if I do it that way because I live on an island in the Atlantic Ocean.
But whatever. At least the Super Sentai DVD's are coming out at a quick pace consistently. Jetman!

RE: Volume 91 Predictions/Discussion
(don't know where else to ask this, because I think this conversation took place in the last Volume thread)
So when exactly is all the new information about Big Mom's children coming out?

RE: ONE PIECE Opening 21, SUPER POWERS by V6 (Inuyasha Opening 1) Debuts October 7th
I'm really going to miss Hope.
It was the best opening song since Kokoro No Chizu.

RE: Volume 90 Predictions/Discussion
I really hope it gets confirmed that Streusen is the father of Perospero.

RE: Great One Piece scenes
I know I'm in the minority here, but one of my all time favorite moments happened during Law's Flashback at Dressrosa.
That treacherous little "mute" liar Rosinante gives Law a note to give the Marines, SPECIFICALLY TOLD LAW TO NOT BRING ANY MARINES TO HIM but the little Kid disobeys his "Cora-San" and does so anyway. Turned out that Marine was Vergo.
I've never thought in my head the word "GOOD!" as loud as I ever thought in my head before.

RE: Funimation DVD Discussion IV (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
So both Voyages and Collection sets are completely caught up.
And no sign of Punk Hazard dub yet?

RE: Chapter 908: The Reverie Begins
Gawdam! This arc just keeps adding more and more juicy pieces of information each chapter. This has been an exciting few chapters, and I look forward to seeing the rest roll out.
I am so glad Bonney is back. Great to see actual pirates are gonna be in the story.
Im is utterly intriguing. There's been nothing shown in the past that someone is really at the top of the in-universe Illuminati pyramid. What in the world is he fixated on Vivi for?

RE: Chapter 904: The Entrance of The Revolutionary Army Commanders
Oh shoot. Rereading the Chapter just before this and its dawned on me that the Tontatta Dwarves are going to the Reverie. They better just be careful, that's all I'm saying. They even say themselves after being warned to not mention Luffy "We're Pirates now!"
Honest to God. They better treat this professionally. They are going as royal escorts.
I'm just acting really concerned over this knowing how bad they failed when dealing with Sugar.

RE: Chapter 903: The Fifth Emperor
In the back of my mind, I always thought Luffy was going to get the Title eventually. And I'm sure if I mentioned it before, a ton of you would have disagreed with me.
But yep, we officially live in the world where Luffy is an Emperor.

RE: Funimation DVD Discussion IV (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
Quick question, since I'm needing to take a break from buying the DVDs so I can't find out for myself, but is the scene of Big Mom out in English yet? My friend is claiming it is.

RE: Chapter 901: Even If You Die, Don't Die!!!
Can someone please post out the panel that shows Charlotte Mascato is alive? I don't see this fact show up anywhere with my own eyes.

RE: Chapter 900: Bad End Musical (Break)
This has been a long break for me. I've been wanting the conclusion and anticipating it so much that it would be a rug pulled from my feet if this turned out to be a sudden cliffhanger conclusion.
I don't think the Straw Hats are killed though, but they all are now captured. And it will be up to someone to rescue them. Someone important, and hasn't done anything yet. Dragon, or Shanks, perhaps?
But oboy, there literally is nothing else for Whole Cake to speculate on right now, people are eager for the Reverie and Wano, and Oda clearly has his own version of Dark Tower Saga going on here.
-
RE: Chapter 900: Bad End Musical (Break)
You all do know this is Chiffon's fault?
Bege was all set to drop the cake off on Liqueur Island. Joy Boy and others were in agreement that if BM was lured to Liqueur Island with her flaming fireball, it would have engulfed her in flames - perfect opportunity for the Straw Hats to escape.
But nope, Chiffon had to be so full of her ego she needed the cake dropped off on her own island.
-
RE: Official Totland Thread
You know something, I've been wondering about Compote. And why she hasn't done anything yet. I kinda feel like that she knows something the rest of Big Mom's offspring doesn't know.
But I dunno what I'm talking about, of course. But her being the 1st Daughter but at the same time not doing anything seems really fishy, and that Oda is saving Compote for something big.
-
RE: Chapter 900: Bad End Musical (Break)
And this, people, is exactly why I wish Luffy would stop telling everyone how much of a Pirate King he thinks he's going to be…
-
RE: Chapter 898: We'll definitely return
I'm grateful that there hasn't been a break, and that there are announcements that there won't be a break next week, but come on Oda, please update on Big Mom's status. I'm so afraid for the worst…. I've been whining on my Facebook status' about how Big Mom may potentially die, and also about how I hope it won't be the case....
I mean, Prometheus at full level... approaching an island consisting of alcohol... on her 12th hour of starvation.
I really haven't anticipated a "Post Mortem" of the arc in like ever.
-
RE: Chapter 896: The Last Request
I hope next chapter is a Big Mom focus.
Enough about Oven and Co. waiting and saying the same lines waiting for Luffy to come out the mirror.
I think something is going to happen regarding Pekoms making Luffy escape. Like perhaps it is Pekoms that comes out of the mirror instead of Luffy, surprising Oven and Co. Straw Hat is nowhere to be found. He is hiding inside Pekoms's Turle Shell. Actually, that could be what Pekoms is in now, his Animal-Mink version of his Tortoise Devil Fruit.
Pekoms was the one who took them safely into Totto Land. He will be the ones to ensure they safely escape Totto Land.
Meanwhile, as Oven is dumbfounded where Straw Hat went, something awful will happen to Big Mom, and most of her children besides Peros, Smoothie and Co, and maybe Daifuku are nowhere around.
I mean, Compote is apparently still on Whole Cake Island. When is she going to become more relevant? Sheesh, being Big Mom's first daughter, you'd think she would have more prominence.

RE: Chapter 895: Pirate Luffy vs. Sweet Commander Katakuri
Gak!
Its midnight on my part of the world, and no spoilers for next chapter yet!
I'm fine with waiting for Friday, since it's seemed to be flip-flopping the past couple months, but I was always used to getting spoilers on Wednesday-Thursday at 12AM.

RE: 826: ''Sanji Returns - Smash the Tea Party From Hell!''
Oh Goda, the anime is on break this week too?
Being a One Piece fan every 52 weeks isn't easy.

RE: Chapter 895: Pirate Luffy vs. Sweet Commander Katakuri
Ugh, I had such a bad week, wish I could have the new chapter for today.
I can smell the post-mortem coming up. I am so personally afraid of what will become of Big Mom.
I lost Monet, I don't want to lose Big Mom.

RE: 824: ''The Promised Spot - Luffy's Strained One-On-One''
Guess the episode didn't answer or even acknowledge the girl who's always sitting on Counter's shoulder.
But I've been thinking lately. That girl… Could she be Charlotte Gala?
-
RE: 823: ''The Empress Tosses and Turns - The Big Plan to Rescue Brook!''
Is the next episode Anime-only? I don't remember this big confrontation with Counter and Sanji spending a good amount of time searching for Luffy. I remember Sanji running into Luffy quickly after they rescued Brook.
That was a great episode by the way, Carrot is getting more and more cute.
-
RE: Chapter 891: Believing in me
AAaaah! The wait is too long! Need the story to move from "Big Mom needing her cake!"
I wouldn't mind if a flashback happens during the eating, but I just want the eating to happen and the combat to halt.
If Oda really has nothing for Smoothie to do, then we might as well return to Flashback territory. All Daifuku wants to do is make faces and he and Smoothie are the only ones worth a damn out there.

RE: Funimation DVD Discussion IV (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
Season 9, Voyage 3 ends at episode 552 the point of Jimbei and Shirahoshi being captured by Hordy and his crew.
(I dunno how to do spoilers, but everyone prolly knows this, so I'll ask)
Is Hordy's transformation included in Voyage 3?
-
RE: Funimation DVD Discussion IV (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
I can't really buy anymore DVDs right now, so I'm fine with this break. I'm eager for Punk Hazard, and new voices for a certain someone, but I got bigger fish to fry right now.
And I do need to get the 3rd Voyage of the Fishman Island. Where, exactly does that end, if someone won't mind telling me.
-
RE: Chapter 891: Believing in me
I really cannot understand how the whole "Pudding's age" thing has blown up the way it has. I guess I should be careful what I wish for, especially since I was pining for more younger Big Mom children.
How often do mistakes get made in initial release? A lot. I'm not that experienced in this fandom on the whole, so I can't comment that much, but there have been absolutely so many retcons made between initial release and volume/sbs release that I think this simple oversight will be solved in no time. Flambe can easily be shitfed to the 37th Daughter or something.
Its clear, despite my pining, that Oda does not really need to introduce as many Big Mom children as possible. I guess if its true that Streusen is Perospero's father (maybe even Compote and the triplets, too!) then THAT will send shivers down everyone's spine…
-
RE: Funimation DVD Discussion IV (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
Is there a new English term for the Tamatebako yet? Did they be lazy like the rest of the fandom and ignore the perfectly feasable and easier to say and understand term of "Urashima's Casket?"
I hope its the latter and I have faith, since the dub still went with the term "Celestial Dragons" when everyone else preferred to exclusively use "Tenryubito" all the time.
Point is, like with the terms like Yonkou, Shichibukai, Tenryubito, etc. I hope the similarly named Tamatebako gets a more localized real name…
-
RE: Chapter 891: Believing in me
Look at that! I was 100% right that Chopper was gonna go Monster. I even predicted this after the Spoilers were released and lucky for me they didn't include this.
Its obviously gotta mean something too. Doesn't Chopper become paralyzed after using Monster Form? Surely this is not gonna get wasted.
-
RE: Chapter 890: Big Mom on Top of the Ship
Surely Big Mom would swat Monster Point Chopper like an annoying fly. There's no chance in hell Monster Point Chopper can come even relatively close to matching the strength of a Yonkou
First of all, is there any actual point of reference that Monster Chopper wouldn't be able to handle a Yonkou for at least one minute?
Second of all, Big Mom is in a very weak state, and her mind will be in even less of a controlled state while she is eating the cake. A number of things could happen as she is enjoying her cake-eating bliss. At which point Chopper, in the form of Monster Point, will be able to resist Big Mom to do what he'll need to do.
-
RE: Chapter 890: Big Mom on Top of the Ship
Yuuuuuup…..
Gotta wait another 24 hours for the next chapter. Figures. I'm just moaning about it because I was off today and was so looking forward to waking up to a new Chapter and new Joy Boy episode to break it down for me. Oh well.
At least I read the Spoilers, but thats never the same. Glad to see it seems the arc is finally starting to conclude. I tell my coworkers who know about One Piece all about whats been going on and how itching I am to know more about what makes Big Mom tick.
I think once she finally gets the cake, she'll wind up with a massacre putting everyone in danger of being eaten, just like Big Mom. What do I think will stop it? Monster Chopper. I can just imagine Monster Chopper being the one to restrain Big Mom, and sedate her, and finally bringing out the one last Chapter I require of Big Mom's past. This is where Pudding's power can come into play too. Everyone will finally learn the truth, and Streusen will reveal an awful lot too (including when he, yes he, sired Perospero)
-
RE: Chapter 890: Big Mom on Top of the Ship
I understand this Chapter came out early but does it mean no new Chapter for this week's Friday?
Just asking because I've been real busy in the real world and finding the answer for yourself is tricky for me.
-
RE: Chapter 889: An Unknown Mama
Isn't the cover story the same thing as the last one only starring the Tontatta and not Ideo?
I'm still really pining for another Big Mom Flashback, because I need more info on how Streusen influenced her, and to get the confirmation of him being Perospero's father. Now seems like it might happen real soon. She's about to keel over and die. The thinning over the past two chapters have been very interesting for me.
I'm beginning to actually worry that Big Mom could really die. This thinning seems to be a serious issue and Sanji and the cake is still a few chapters away…
-
RE: Chapter 888: Lion
There's going to be at least one more chapter in 2017, right? You just can't ever know this time of year.
-
RE: Chapter 887: Somewhere, Someone Is Wishing For Your Happiness
I'm happy with this chapter since it includes a miniature Big Mom flashback, including the first in-manga appearance of her younger adult self. Bege wasn't one of my favorites of the Super Nova's but he's really putting up an entertaining and great fight here. This, to me, is much more interesting than Luffy Vs Katakuri right now.
-
RE: Chapter 885: Grrruuumble
Yes! It's finally the new week, just a few more days to go until the next Chapter is out.
Now PLEASE no more breaks until at least the Grand Finale begins and/or Big Mom is awake.
-
RE: Chapter 884: Who
Not to sound smarmy or anything, but did you expect Big Mom to do anything except for rampaging and breaking shit? Like, especially before she gets to eat that shitty cake?
Like I said, I want more of Big Mom's past. At least one more flashback. Something like how the family started. Was Perospero or Compote the first born? Was Streusen really Pero's father, etc. There's just so many more questions about her past that still need explaining.
-
RE: Chapter 884: Who
Boy, Oda sure knows how to make characters stand completely still for a good period of time.
Since the last break ended, Big Mom is literally doing the exact same thing. Except now on Nuts Island.
I can't wait til she snaps out of this. Its high time for some more Charlotte Linlin exposition.
-
RE: Chapter 878: Mink Tribe, Guardian Chief Pedro
Just checking, break this week or no?
-
RE: 805: ''A Battle of Limits - Luffy and the Endless Biscuit''
The things with Sanji's family are just as bad, since the anime has such a huge hard on for the feud between Sanji and his individual brothers, and basically throw in a fight whenever they can.
-
RE: 805: ''A Battle of Limits - Luffy and the Endless Biscuit''
Oda should have just called this location the "Ever-Lasting Woods."
Jeez, its length in the manga was bad enough, but in the anime, its one and only purpose is "Stretch it as long and far as you possibly can." no pun intended.
To me, it feels like the entire sub-arc took place in one goddamn spot because of how slow things go.
-
RE: 804: ''To East Blue - Sanji's Decision to Set Sail''
@Miss:
The original sin lies with Oda for making Sanji's backstory so basic and cliched.
Though, like always, the anime does nothing to lessen the blow; instead they just stretch out the mediocrity to infinity and beyond.My point, however, is that the anime is using every opportunity they can find to have Ichiji/Niji/Yonji, or a combination of whichever, or all three, beat up on Sanji.
Every week on Youtube, I'm finding new Sanji Vs Whoever videos. More instances of Sanji getting kicked. More added scenes of the brothers beating him up.
Maybe I'm just hating it because this is my least favorite part of the arc, that as well as the "Stand around and wait for something to happen" I.. I.. mean, the "Seducing Woods" part of the story.
-
RE: 804: ''To East Blue - Sanji's Decision to Set Sail''
We get it anime version, we get it.
Sanji's brothers were mean to him and constantly beat his face into a pulp.
**WE GET IT.**
-
RE: 803: ''The Thrown-Away Past - Vinsmoke Sanji''
#1: Christ almighty! HOW MANY individual fights do we freaking need between Sanji and each of his brothers?
#2: My GOD! The anime is making the Seducing Woods arc so much more tedious, long, and unnecessary than it already was.
