Nami. Sacrifices herself for the crew in a matter similar to Bellemere's death i.e. gun to the head.

Sounds good. Hopefully this fits the tension of the arc, unlike the current opening.

Something I never understood, wouldn't this be opening 12 and Sagashite 11, if you don't count the Straw Hat version of We Are as an opening? Makes more sense.

@Chopperrules:

But how would they do that though? Have him talk through a silhouette, or just show the silhouette and have him stay silent? Or maybe just referencing him by name would be best.

Saying the name's fine. Be just like how he's going to be introduced to the story anyway. We'll just hear of him

! before Ace dies

@Chopperrules:

Precisely. Actually, I'd be very curious to see that done.

Only question at hand is whether or not it would be a good thing to show Sabo now or later.

Wouldn't be a good thing to fully show Sabo.

Hinting at him in the flashback, that's fine. Keeps curiosity up, but doesn't completely ruin it for the anime-only fans.

@dirt:

I don't get the hate for that one. I find it one of the more tolerable fillers in One Piece.

It's tolerable, true. But extremely boring.

@Super-Franky:

Hey, I missed episode #2–Could someone tell me who played the narrator at the beginning? I'm curious, since they might also end up voicing Father.

Kent Williams did the narrator.

@FrankyFan:

I just got 29-33 today. I like the Zoro slip they did. My only peeve is that Volume 32 is titled Water 7 when 4/5 of it is Skypiea.

Probably because the Water Seven storyline (Davy Back Fight included) starts in that volume. I agree it is pretty strange to do when the entire volume, save for two chapters is Skypiea.

They did the same thing for volume 50 too, giving it the subtitle, Sabaody, when most of it is clearly Thriller Bark.

I guess you enjoy bumping threads that are exactly two years old.

Funny thing is, I think everybody thought Fishman Island would've been over with by now. We ain't even there yet.

When and where did Oda state that an old boss/villain would sail with Luffy to the New World?

That could mean just about anything though. They could just become a case like Johnny, Yosaku, and Vivi, and simply sail with the Straw Hats for a little while, in which case it most likely is Hachi.

@smurfx:

about that luffy ages to 27 theory. since luffy didn't go through iva's entire treatment then maybe he will age to 21? 27 seems way to old. 21 would be just right.

Reread chapter 538, he went through and survived the ENTIRE treatment.
