An Audio RIP (compilation & accumulation)
of all unreleased background music since 2014 (Dressrosa / 3D2Y / Sabo)–-> https://mega.nz/#F!7BcRGIyQ!yobJba7NoDBRXUI6VB9oeA
I will regularly update those folders
Thank you very much for these. Specifically the "Brave" tracks. I went right for them because I figure what they were. Captain Usopp!

RE: Volume 79 Predictions/Discussion
Enel got on Volume 30. Sharing with Luffy anyway. And considering that we got a 2 year arc where he was the major antagonist it's surprising there is no Doflamingo on any spine.
-
RE: Volume 79 Predictions/Discussion
Poor Doffy, didn't get a spot on any spine.
I know, right? I was certain that this face was certain to make that spine! Serious mistake on whomever gets to decide that part.

RE: Volume 77 Predictions/Discussion
Yeah, it wouldn't have hurt to vary the skin tones a little more for the officers. /2cents
My thoughts entirely. But I don't expect that from the manga anymore.

RE: Volume 77 Predictions/Discussion
Cool Cover. The one person I wish was ghosted on there, would be Corazon, since we haven't seen an official color of him yet. Plus the rest of the Flashback is in this chapter.

RE: Next Bounty Predictions (Dressrosa Arc)
The bounties after this arc will be interesting. And I suspect Oda will reveal some conventions with the next raises that'll happen.
I think Luffy will jump to 600,000,000 (for the alliance with Law, taking down Doflamingo a Warlord/World Noble, and for the very visible defeat of Don Chinjao) But now that I think about it, he was in disguise, so he might not get credit for that.
Zoro's bounty seems to double. (From 60,000,000 to 120,000,000 the first time) so I think this second time he'll go to 320,000,000 for challenging and surviving Fujitora and taking down Pica.
Usopp's bounty I believe mimics Luffy's former bounties, so I think his next bounty will be 100,000,000 for the whole "God Usopp" thing. He's positioning himself as a leader to a bunch of notorious outlaws. Similar to Buggy.
Robin and Franky I haven't noticed a raising convention yet. But I suspect that Robin will always get small conservative raises because of her very conservative personality.

RE: The One Piece Music Thread
is that the right episode number…?
anyway, here's the music that was used in 647: http://onepace.net/?page_id=702&type=episode&q=647
I'm sorry, you're right… wrong number on my part (I was careless and mixed up the 4 and 7). Episode 674, and the track is apparently Unreleased still.
Thanks! I didn't know OnePace.net had a music list like this. Very useful!
-
RE: The One Piece Music Thread
Just to make sure. But at the end of Ep. 647, when Usopp returns for the Tontattas, that is an unreleased track right? Does anyone happen to know?

RE: One Piece 5th Official Characters' Popularity Poll announced.
I know. Give me some San Juan Wolf love, or even Jesus Freakin' Burgress!? He's in this current arc for fucks sakes! Bartolomeo being in the top 10 is a shocker to me, especially over Franky.

RE: How many chapters will One Piece last?
@The:
1350-1500
What I think about
Dressrosa (700->790-800)
Zou (as Post Dressrosa arc) (790->800-810)
Wano (800-810->860-870)
Whole Cake Island (860-870->920-930)
End of SagaKaido Saga
Reverie arc (920-930->960-980)
some arcs (we have alot of stuff like Elbaf, the last Shichi and alot mysteries about the story) (960-980->1100)
Kaido arc (1100->1160-1180)
End of SagaSome prologue saga for final saga (1160-1180->1230-1250)
Final Saga (1230-1250-> 1350+)
When you break it down like that, you're probably right. The final arc/war of One Piece will probably take two years and equal around 100 chapters.
But I would say that the "Kaido Saga" will probably include Zou and Wano, since we are technically already engaging against Kaido current. Because of Kinemon and Momonosuke's reaction to Kaido's name they are probably involved with him. Plus Zou sounding like "Zoo" is a theory. Might be where the Minkmen are from.

RE: Straw Hats-Less Arc.
I think the question is "Yes I would enjoy a Strawhat less arc" but only provided that the arc itself is a good story. Which Oda is more than capable of presenting other characters in mini-arcs.

RE: Wasted opportunities of One Piece
Nothing against the pretty hot Hourglass Figures for women. I personally love them. But I just want a better representative set of different female figures on the crew, like how we have on the male side. Nami and Robin more than fit that bill, but with the additions of Brook (skinny/tall), Franky (Beefy), Chopper (various) there is a more varied set of male body archetypes represented for our "heroes". And to put it bluntly, Plus-sized women can be strong fun, adventures, beautiful heroes too. Which, as I pointed out, the series does show, but it would be excellent to have someone like that with the main crew which best 99% of the attention. Let alone merchandise and character development. Even a tiny, chibi girl would be at least a new female archetype for the crew. And if it doesn't happen, won't be a mark against the series… I just think that it would be a "wasted opportunity" for One Piece. And i say this to support Gender Diversity and Equality.
What do you guys have against hourglass figures ? Are you uncomfortable at the sight a strong independent woman with curves ? Check your male privilege !
!
More seriously, I'd like a new crewmember that looked like Shaky, Bonney or Whitey Bay. More than the body of the character, I'm more interested in their style and attitude. It'd be great to have a girl add more OP (Original Pirate) vibe to the crew !
-
RE: Volume 76 Predictions/Discussion
Next cover, more than likely will have a cover featuring Corazon and a young Law/Doflamingo for sure. Or maybe we'll get a similar motif with the Doflamingo Family.

RE: Funimation DVD Discussion III (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
Slick. Now I definitely will be repurchasing these DVD sets…. (sigh) OP bleeds my money.

RE: Wasted opportunities of One Piece
This is more of a potential/future wasted opportunity if it ultimately doesn't come to pass…
But if we don't get a Strawhat member who is female, Battle-hardy (Zoro, Sanji, Franky or even Brook type), and not just another hourglass figure clone of Nami. I hope we get one more female crew member and I doubt he'll do Nami's face for her, but it would be fantastic if she had a different body type from the other women. So she also stands out esthetically. Honestly if Jimbei was a woman, this conversation would be done already, so I'm crossing my figures Ivakov runs across Jimbei again.
I've been thinking about it, one of the things I loved about One Piece starting out was the gender diversity Oda created with the concept of the Baroque Works top agents. From Ms. Monday to Ms. Double-Finger, that one group gave us a superior range of female characters that we honestly haven't seen again since this current arc, Dressrosa. Though some characters this arc could be better developed as far as an interesting design (I'm definitely looking at you Viola and Rebecca!)
Great topic by the way.

RE: Chapter 761: The Ope Ope no Mi
http://www.onepiecebay.net/manga/One-Piece/731/9
There you go.
So I was right in saying that the most likely result was that Law was given the Immortality by Corazon, since as you pointed out, Sugar got her fruit and stopped aging at a different point than Corazon's death.
-
RE: Chapter 761: The Ope Ope no Mi
Sugar having been granted the immortality is an interesting theory. Especially if the translation is correct and it does grant eternal youth in addition to eternal life. But I think the likely recipient is Law. Corazon might have had the Ope Ope fruit first, and gave Law the immortality, so the disease wouldn't kill him. And maybe in that transfer, Law got the power of the fruit as well.

RE: Your duration as a One Piece fan
Now that volume 75 came out in Japan. I did the math, if you say there has been 4 volumes every year in japan (which is roughly accurate) Since Luffy invaded Enies Lobby it's been 9 years. Almost a full decade since that event. So much has happened since, but also doesn't feel that long ago. One Piece is Awesome!

RE: Volume 75 Predictions/Discussion
The literal Birdcage in the background. Thanks for posting this redon. Can't wait to get a copy with some massive Pica action.

RE: Pun Piece
Hadn't seen this before. But it's a damn near perfect recreation of the "good ole' days" of the 4Kids dub. Ugh… thank Kami Funimation got to it and redid all that garbage!
-
RE: Next Bounty Predictions (Dressrosa Arc)
The only prediction I have is for Usopp's bounty will probably be a cool 100,000,000 berries. I suspect all of his future bounties will mimic Luffy's previous bounties until the end. Obviously he won't reach Luffy's Pirate King bounty, but Usopp will probably reach 300 million by the end.

RE: Sexism in this chapter and OP in general
I'm actually glad that to see a thoughtful discussion about Berserk has appeared in the One Piece forums.
Cause honestly, Miura has created some of the strongest female characters in an manga series that is dominated by males.
And on the sexism in this chapter. Yes it was blatant chauvinism and yes, totally sexist. But that's part of the joke with the Señor Pink character, he's making light of chauvinist thinking and machismo. It's silly, he's silly, and seriously don't take it that seriously. And Franky is simply trying to out "Hard-Boil" the most hard-boiled man in the series to date. In short, don't try this at home kiddies. The Ladies will NOT love you for it.

RE: Favorite One Piece Fight Choreography
So what's your favorite fight in One Piece?
One Piece has pretty good action scenes, but Oda seems to love backflips. Look at how many there are!
Luffy vs Kuro - Chapter 36!
Sanji vs Gin - Chapter 60!
Luffy vs Crocodile Round 1 -Chapter 177!
Sanji vs on Kurei - Chapter 187/188
^(Sort of? One in both chapters. )!
Zoro vs Daz Bones - Chapter 194!
Zoro vs Braham - Chapter 258, 259!
Luffy vs Wiper - Chapter 260!
Luffy vs Blueno -Chapter 385!
Zoro vs Kaku - Chapter 401!
Luffy vs Lucci - Chapter 421!
Brook vs Ryuma - Chapter 459!
Luffy vs Mihawk - Chapter 561!
Luffy vs(sort of) Smoker - Chapter 670!
Smoker vs Vergo- Chapter 684!
You pretty much called out all of them. At least all the ones I would have mentioned immediately. All of Skypeia was brilliant. You seem to like a lot of the evasions and dodges, but I hear you, Oda conveys these ideas really well.
A few honorable mentions:
Chopper Vs. Geddatsu
Zoro Vs. Ohm
Robin Vs. Yama
Zoro Vs. Ryuma!!
Sanji Vs. Jabura
Luffy Vs. Franky Vs. Gallery-La
And the greatest fight in One Piece History….......... Usopp Vs. Chu!!!!! -
RE: Funimation DVD Discussion III (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
Even if Voyage 1 was moved back, the fact that they've already revealed the trailer for it (albeit at a con) makes me feel pretty confident that they're only going to move the release a week or two into October.
Actually, if they did that, I'd be really happy. Or better yet, if they really went for it and gave us one a month (September and October)… but that's a huge pipe dream.
-
RE: The One Piece Music Thread
I remember the same from Movie 7 and 8. It almost acted as a preview for those movies, "Hey! Listen to what's coming".
Thanks, I'll look forward to the eventual OST that's going to include all this original Dressrosa music then.
-
RE: The One Piece Music Thread
In Ep. 651 where Toy Soldier is explaining to Rebecca why the Doflamingo family is after her and her mom. Is it from Film Z? The song ends right before Rebecca is attacked by wolves.
The track starts at 11:38. It's got a really sweet melody. Thanks!

RE: Chapter 750: "The State of War"
Also, second time one of Luffy's Big Brothers held off powerful Marines with a firewall, while Luffy was in a country to help out a princess.
-
RE: Chapter 750: "The State of War"
Don't expect to see the other Strawhats (Nami, Sanji, Chopper and Brook) until this arc is concluded. This is all really similar to when Zoro and Usopp left for Cocoyashi before Luffy and Sanji finished off Don Krieg. The rest have nothing more to do with the arc and it's better for the group that they're away. Unless they somehow snuck pass Big Mom's crew and back onto the island before the Birdcage, there is probably no way we'll see them before the fighting is over.
Plus there are enough players in play to be concern with. I love how everyone is crying about just Sanji not being around (saying nothing of Brook, Nami, or Chopper), and no ones noticed we haven't seen Kinemon and his Kanjuro quest for the better part of 4 or 5 chapters. That's at least something that's going on within the Island right now… and will probably have ramifications with the series when they eventually reach the Wano Country.
-
RE: Funimation DVD Discussion III (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
Looks like it's dubbed. Under Languages it says "English, Japanese". When has Funimation ever released a subtitle only DVD? Kind of defeats their purpose.
-
RE: Your duration as a One Piece fan
I can't remember the specific date, but it was definitely the chapter where Luffy (not understanding the plan) leaps over the gate of Eneis lobby ahead of the Water 7 crew. And fights his way thru the guards. I remember that following chapter ended with the Franky Family waking up Oimo and Kashi, and then Luffy being surrounded by the almost 10,000 guards of Eneis Lobby. So I'm pretty sure it was Chapter 377 - Great Battle on the Judiciary Island, which my guess would have been August or September of 2005. My old person memory is fading.
-
RE: Volume 74 Predictions/Discussion
Kuzan had two to three within a hundred chapters? He was passive aside from that one contact on W7 with Robin, his freezing of Saul and his short encounter with the Strawhats on the islands.
The cover of 33 was deservedly taken by Foxy, might have had his place in 41, but that wasn't needed either. Obviously he will have some role in the future too, so his time on 58 won't have been the last time we see him.
You might be right, but Fujitora seems just as passive in this arc too, since the major conflicts with Doflamingo would be happening whether he were there or not. Which is kind of the point he's making right now. And I don't think any one would claim that Kizaru on Sabody wasn't an important person in that arc. And the same will probably be said for Fujitora will be on a cover eventually, maybe not this arc. We don't know what role Oda wants him to play where he'll be most significant.
-
RE: Volume 74 Predictions/Discussion
sigh No Fujitora for Enz…
Cover looks alright I guess.
To be fair. Aokiji nor Kizaru weren't on a single cover until the War.
-
RE: Which FUNimation dub voices are you your least favorite?
I really enjoy the Funi Dub to One Piece (goes without saying it's LEAGUES above the 4Kids dub which is all we had back in the day).
Out of the main SH crew, I'd say chopper is my least favorite, but it's really hard to force that level of high-pitch cuteness and be able to act along with it, so it's really just because her voice often sounds hoarse while performing.
But ultimately the most disappointing voice in the series I'd have to agree with the original post is Crocodile. The Japanese voice actor to Croc is soooooo deep, smooth, and menacing. Like if a James Bond villain who was a Mafia Boss shallowed a bass guitar! The Funi actor just doesn't cut it for me, he sounds like a stock Saturday morning bad guy, it's seriously sadness to hear for that arc. And on the flip side Eneru's Funi voice actor is BEYOND perfect for the role.

RE: One Piece Chapter 744 - Revolutionary Army Chief Advisor
Great chapter and a great arc!!! BTW, Mangapanda's translation is miles better than Mangastream's… we miss you CCC!!!!
Besides the "Great chapter" comment, this was one of the most laughable quotes I've read on this site in a long time. It's great that mangapanda gets the chapters up so quickly, but the translations lack personality, the fonts are boring, and the image quality is super fuzzy and not good. If you enjoy all these things. Have at it.
-
RE: You and the very last chapter of the manga "One Piece"
It will be like one of my best friend is dead.
Been there, done that. Unfortunately… but I agree whole heartedly with this statement.
I'll have to say, there will be tears, reflections, sadness over the time that has passed and the time that will never be again. Anger over the "what could have beens" and the joys that was. And just like with all things, all these feelings will fade into the dust of history.

RE: Best Quotes of One Piece
@Commander:
2 most epic quotes
! "Pirates are evil!!? The Marines are righteous!!? These terms have always changed throughout the course of history…!!! Kids who have never seen peace and kids who have never seen war have different values!!! Those who stand at the top determine what's wrong and what's right! This very place is neutral ground!!! Justice will prevail, you say!? But of course it will!!! Whoever wins this war becomes justice!!!"
doflamingo in the war of the best! "This new era they talk about is shit.The age where pirates dream is over!???EH??Oi!!!People's dreams never end!!Let them laugh!If you seek the summit,you'll find fights your fists alone could never take you to!"
Black beard during the mock town arcNuff' Said. I think the key to One Piece is within these quotes.
-
RE: What will happen to the Mera Mera no Mi?
Anyone who predicted that was definitely shooting for the fences. There was no clue or indication that the Revolutionaries or Sabo would be here. At best, with the Revolutionary and underground connects they might have know Doflamingo had the Mera Mera fruit, and Sabo set out to reclaim it. But how is he in the colosseum and hasn't participated in the tournament yet? Maybe he's secret way in is how Luffy got out, since Bellamey isn't around.
Ah, I'm sure Oda will address these soon.

Very good call. Certainly hard to predict what Oda will do, but you deserve credit for that one.

RE: Chapter 730: "3 Cards"
This was an INCREDIBLE chapter! Things just got fuck-nuts!!! I'm really glad that the crew is going to do this split venture, something I've always wanted to see in the series. And nicely they'll return with Law's crew, so it'll be nice to see Bepo and Jean-Bart in the new world.
Big Mom might now have the best ship in the series! A talking ship… I wonder if this has something do with the Klautermann or Devil Fruit infusion. So many questions and awesomeness.

RE: Things you'd do differently than Luffy
Easy. Find more female crew members. He visited the Island of Women, he could have gotten at least one badass lady to join.

RE: Oda´s tributes to another Mangas, mangakas, celebrities…
Whenever Oda does artwork for someone else's series, it usually inspires me to go check them out too. His work is SO slick and makes it look like tons of fun. Golgo 13 is a classic and a must watch for Anime.

RE: Color Walk 6 "Gorilla", on sale in January 2014
It's true. I always keep a couple on screen at work, and quite often people will as "What's that!?" Oda does a brilliant job with his compositions and inventive color work.
