Thriller Bark was rushed and featured too much Sanji/Zoro wank. Brooke's budding relationship with the crew seemed very forced. Second worst part of One Piece would be the end of Enies Lobby. It rapidly went downhill once Usopp was raped by Jyabura.

RE: Chapter 509 "Kizaru vs 4 Captains" Discussion
Wait a darn tooting minute. are you saying that both Nami and Usopp are stronger then Robin, Franky and Brooke?
Whoooops!! That should have read weaker than the STRONG members before them. LOL

RE: Chapter 509 "Kizaru vs 4 Captains" Discussion
thing is is if the crew kept getting stronger and stronger members it just be fake
I don't expect every new member to be strong but the idea of getting new crew mates loses all credibility when every single member since Sanji is weaker than the top-tier members that came before them. Brooke is fine where he is (there needs to be a bridge between the Zoros and the Usopps) but Franky, given his powers, his impressive feats in Water 7 and the potential of his fighting style, should be portrayed as a lot stronger.
@Mad:
Wha? Franky had all of Water 7 and Enies Lobby.
Oda basically pulled the plug on Franky once the Thriller Bark arc got off its feet. The Water 7 Franky is a distant memory unfortunately.

RE: Chapter 509 "Kizaru vs 4 Captains" Discussion
well franky is 38 n hes half rusted recycled material who runs on cola
how strong do you want him to be
the guy is in the mid tier of the group below sanji zoro n luffy
He's only 34 and there is no reason why he shouldn't be written as being as strong as Sanji. From a storyline perspective it's pretty irritating as it gives the impression that the SHs "peaked" with the early members and all forthcoming members are just "riff-raff" scrubs that fill out the roster. He's not even letting them get as many scenes (certainly not as many as the way overexposed Sanji). It doesn't exactly leave one excited about that last crew member.

RE: Chapter 509 "Kizaru vs 4 Captains" Discussion
I really hate how Oda goes out of his way to highlight Franky's "weakness" these days (especially as compared to Sanji). I know it's a weird reference but the way how he makes ONLY the early East Blue SH (Sanji and Zoro) top tier reminds me of how Hulk Hogan suppressed new young talent in WCW in order to make his old crusty ass remain at the top forever.

RE: Strongest Pirate
Whitebeard, Blackbeard, Dragon or Sen Goku. Any other suggestion is just ridiculous.

RE: Naruto Discussion V [Re-Re-Redux]
The Mizukage is a F*CKING UCHIHA. Kishimoto will do anything and I mean anything to clinch this manga, no matter what affect it has on the story's quality.

RE: In Your Opinion~Who are Overrated Characters?
I'd also have to give Nami an honorable mention. She's not exactly overrated but she's certainly overexposed.

RE: In Your Opinion~Who are Overrated Characters?
Kakashi, Shikamaru, Deidara, Rock Lee, Hidan, Gai, Vegeta, Sanji, Zoro, Ace, Mihawk (that's right), Brooke, L, Spike Spiegal, everyone on Bleach (especially Hitsugaya and Ichigo).
