Hello all. I'm a fan of this series called One Piece. Has there been any news lately?

@Greg:

Hey guys! How's it hanging? Byeeeeeee.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Oh, man!

@Apprentice:

I didnt enjoy the flashback much. I put it in my bottom tier along with Nami's, robin's, sanji's and Ussop's. Coming off Franky, Brook and Ace/Luffy's fantastic ones, this one felt really bland. Chapter was decent though, nothing great, nothing terrible.

Wow, Nami and Robin's flashbacks were in your bottom tier?

On today's episode of the Unofficial One Piece Podcast, we have Ed, Jason, Jammer, Dominic, Ichnob, and Kate on to discuss the One Piece goodness for the week. Jason takes us through the latest news (most of which has to do with the series absolutely destroying in manga sales), and afterward, we delve into chapter 624 of the manga, "Queen Otohime." Ichnob leads us through the latest line of figures, and then the podcast reveals its number three pick for our Top Five Simulcasts. After a quick recap of filler episode 498 of the anime, we piece it all together and close out.

On behalf of Podcast West, I'd like to thank all the listeners out there for all the support and input during the past month during Zach and Co.'s hiatus. Dominic, Ichnob, Firecrouch, Kate, and myself all had a fantastic time, and hope you did as well.

And in one last shameless plug I'd like to invite you to join Dominic and I at the AniManga Podcast and check out all the goodness we have to offer there.

It's been good fun, and we hope to hear from you all soon!

Jammer

@IgorGB:

Some people have this "Dragon Ball syndrome" and think that all characters get 1000 times stronger each arc, specially the main characters.
Luffy was definitely stronger right before the timeskip comparing to Arlong Park, but not necessarily THAT much stronger.

Yeah, I get the impression, that Luffy's only gotten a tad bit stronger as he's moved along the grand line. It's usually his strategies to his fights or a specific attack that changes. The timeskip, of course, is an exception, but on the whole, they've only grown steadily throughout the first half of the story, not exponentially.

Remember folks: bounty does not necessarily correlate to strength.
