Man that was freakin' sad, never been so touched by a manga.

This is why I love One Piece. Go from thrilling to tear jerker in one week flat.

I can't wait to see this particular scene animated and then all the amv's that'll come out afterwards.

ADC is teh smith.

w00t.

@Wickio:

Don't bother waiting up. It's gonna be a while longer yet. Had to fix a couple of things in the script that Laeliel pointed out, so it's gonna have to upload again. Don't worry, it shouldn't be too long. ^^;

Thanks a lot wickio for everything you guys do.

I'd give you one of my cookies but i'm one greedy bastard.

@Laeliel:

Sorry for the wait ><

Myea, reencoding was for Wickio not knowing what a partisan is XD (and because of me forgetting to put a note -.-') Now the poor boy is completly spent and needs his sleep, so let's not bitch behind his back while we patiently wait for the nice episode to be out :3 Although I'm the only one bitching there x.x;

Thank you Laeliel for all your hard work.

Now I can stop being mushy.

@davybackfight:

Thankyou very much for making this thread~! Because without this I wouldn't know how to watch all my favourite Anime. Sticky this thread damn fast!

Thank you very much I hope others found it as useful as you.

I thought about posting this in the general anime section, but I decided to post here since I like ADC and the whole reason for me making it was to try and find a way to help them out.

If a mod wants to move this to another section, they can.

I searched for a thread like this but couldn't find one, if something like this already exists please delete this thread.

This is a quick snapshot of Torrents for all those who do not know how to use them. I know there's a lot of info available out there, I'm just consolidating it for the purposes of this particular forum to possibly help out people who have questions (And Also 'Cause I like ADC and I figured if this helps them in the slightest it's worth it).

BitTorrent: BitTorrent is a protocol designed for transferring files. It is peer-to-peer in nature, as users connect to each other directly to send and receive portions of the file. There is also one central server (called a tracker) which coordinates the action of all such peers.

Terminology: Here's some basic terminology you'll want to get firmiliar with:
Torrent - The file which tells your client what to download. Essentially it's the key to your download and your client is the door.
Tracker - A server on the Internet that acts to coordinate the action of BitTorrent clients.
Client - This can also be referred to as your program. It is the service you use to download your programs. (i.e. µTorrent, Azureus, etc.)
Peer - Another computer connected to the peer to peer (p2p) network to share information.
Peer to Peer (p2p) - A term used to describe file sharing from computer to computer rather than downloading from a file server.
Direct Download - A download from a file server to a computer.
Seeders - Those who let others download files from them, essentially sharing their bandwith and file with a group of peers.
Leechers - Those who download the files. Sometimes Leechers download a torrent file and close the BitTorrent client right afterwards; this is very rude and very frowned upon by all involved in the BitTorrent community.
Reseeding - This is a phenomena that occurs when no one is seeding a specific torrent. Reseeding is the act of putting a file back onto the torrent client for others to download upon request (Usually the requester will seed the file for a lengthened period of time as gratitude for the reseeding.)
[Batch] - This is a term you usually see at the end of a torrent filename. This is used to describe a torrent that allows you to download multiple files into the same folder (i.e. ADC_One_Piece_220_230_[Batch].torrent) Usually if you only want one specific file from the batch and cannot find an individual torrent for it then your client will allow you to pick that specific file from the [Batch] torrent.

Why Use BitTorrent: There are many different reasons why fansubbing groups such as ADC, KF, Dattebayo, and Gerusama use BitTorrent as their preferred method of distributing their releases, here are a few:
It's Cheaper - Using BitTorrent frees up Bandwith for the Fansubbers' Websites by reallocating it between seeders and leechers.
Files become available longer - As long as people are seeding the files on a BitTorrent client then the download is still available.
_It's actually faster_* - Because bandwith is switched from one server to many different peers dealing directly with one another more bandwith becomes available and leechers do not consume all the filer server's bandwith.
I'm sure there are more reasons, but this is all I can think of at the moment.

The Process: Download. Setup. Download Torrent. Open Torrent. Wait. Play. Be Happy.

Download the BitTorrent Program. For a list of recommended programs please scroll down.
Once you download the BitTorrent Program, or CLIENT, set it up as you would any other program. Note: you may need to configure ports or contact a network administrator or check the respective Program's website's FAQ's for tips/troubleshooting issues. I know there are also threads on here dedicated to BitTorrent Troubeshooting, but this specific thread is dedicated to helping you understand/setup BitTorrent. Go to the respective fansubbing sites(or other torrent sites), and download the torrent. Once you have dowloaded the torrent open it up and your BitTorrent program should automatically open up. You can also chose to open your program first then search or the newly downloaded torrent.

If downloading a [BATCH] torrent File: If you've downloaded a [Batch] torrent file then repeat the same steps as a regular torrent file to start downloading. THE KEY DIFFERENCE is in selecting which files within the batch you wish to select. In most BitTorrent client's once you open up the [Batch] torrent file you'll get to select which files from the batch and you download what you want. [Batch] files usually have their own folder where individual files have no folder. The folder with the episode pack (with only the episodes you want) show up on the desktop or wherever you designate your files to be downloaded to.

BitTorrent Etiquette: It is very important to understand the proper Etiquette for downloading and using any torrent related files.
ALWAYS SEED ANY FILE YOU HAVE DOWNLOADED.
This is essential to keeping BitTorrents available at a regular and consistent rate. People are being courteous when they allow you their bandwith and files when you leech, please return the favor to others.
As a general rules I recommend everyone seed for as long as they have leeched.
IF YOU HAVE REQUESTED A RESEED, MAKE SURE YOU SEED THAT FILE AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE.
Honestly I can't emphasize this enough. If a file needs to be reseeded and you are the requester, chances are other people might want the Torrent as well. Please keep the file open until you see a reasonable amount of seeders available again. Again, seeding is the Backbone of the BitTorrent community.

BE HUMBLE. BE COURTEOUS. BE GRATEFUL. BE GENEROUS. Seed. Seed. Seed. Seed.

Yea it's almost been a year since the last release. He's alive though, and he can draw still.

I really -REALLY- like this anime/manga. Had I known the situation of it stopping for a while before I got into it I would've put off on getting involved with it for about two-three more years when the new OVA comes out and the New Arc is in play.

pretty painfully obvious its going to be franky. Hes the only one near the level of the SH's strength plus he would make a great comic relief.

I think he will have a great relationship with Usopp; and help Usopp ascend to a much needed higher level of strength. He can also help Usopp make better use of dials and such.
