      @Kishido:

      Well the sparkles are really interesting… As I said dissapointed in the handling of Burgess... And my Dressrosa MVP Bartolomeo looks like a real leader. He in da very front ❤

      Burgess honestly seems fine. He just hollered about it burning at that was it.

      @LuffydaPirateKing:

      Failed to beat burgess? Why are all these trolls out all of a sudden?

      Not a troll. But he did not beat him. It was a draw.

      @HacheBe:

      I don't understand why everyone assumes that Luffy just got on the island and then immediately developed Gear 4th. Its not like he took the entire 2 years perfecting it. Maybe he developed it after the first year or maybe the first 6 months. Maybe he had to develop it in the last 6 months. He didn't just instantaneously get it when he started training. Sure he had time to work on it but how long did Luffy have 2nd and 3rd gear before he got rid of the side effects/perfected it?

      Also i would lean towards the latter since he has not been shown using gear fourth without haki yet. So in order to use haki in gear fourth he would have to learn how to use it and since he didn't know the basics until Rayleigh left then he probs didn't get the hang of it until the end of the training period.

      This is a good point. Rayleigh said he'd only teach him the basics of haki, and that took 1.5 years. It wouldn't be until after that until he started shaping it into what would eventually become gear 4, and even then, it probably took him a while to reach the oddity that is Bounceman. I would love to see all the failed iterations of it at some point (i.e. all of Oda's drafts before he found what worked for him!)

      Yes, we look over ants to see the horizon.

      You must think that nothing happens in most of the series then, huh? This kind of stuff is what Oda does best.

    • Do You Want To Believe, Arlong Park? AP Watches THE X-FILES

      Whoa… It's been a while since I've done one of these. I think the last one was for Arrested Development? So like 2 years ago? My job kind of took everything out from under my feet and a lot of things fell through the cracks. (Anyone remember the Underappreciated Film thread? I try not to...) But having quit that job, I now have a lot of time on my hands, and with the X-Files returning for a mini-series next January, I thought this was the perfect time to finally watch this show.

      Wait, what? Yeah, I've somehow never watched the X-Files before. Okay, that's not entirely true, I've seen some episodes here and there, and I tried to get into the series before but only made it halfway through the first season, if that, but I just never had enough time to sit through all of, so I lost interest.

      So I'm going for it now and I invite all of you to join me. As of typing, there are 254 days until the premiere, and 202 episodes--and a couple of movies or something, right?--so that gives a nice leisurely pace of an episode a day.

      I figure I'll start next Monday (or later if any of y'all who want to join me want to push it back a bit.) I'll probably just post a short review of each episode, cataloging what I think. Even if I dislike the show, which I pray I won't, I will see this through till the end.

      Well, that's it. Anyone else interested it, rewatching it or experiencing it for the first time with me?

      @cloudrivera:

      One thing I don't like, and honestly this is more of a Shonen problem than a One Piece one:

      I really don't understand how Gear 4 has that big of a drawback. Back when Luffy first used Gear 2nd and 3rd, that was the first time he used them so it was understandable that they would have drawbacks. Gear 2nd decreasing his life and him becoming small after Gear 3rd quickly went away however. Yet with Gear 4, he had 2 YEARS of training and yet this massive drawback is still here? And I guarantee that the next time Luffy uses Gear 4, not in this fight but against someone else, the drawback will either be gone or drastically reduced all because Dofla said "awakening".

      I also personally don't like that Luffy has a drawback at all. Everybody else uses their fruit in creative ways, yet when Luffy does he gets something like this. The man can't use haki for 10 MINUTES and can barely move at all. That doesn't happen to anyone else. I understand it adds more tension to the situation, but that shit will not fly against Kaido or anyone else stronger.

      If there was no drawkback, everyone would be wondering why he didn't use it during Fishman Island or Punk Hazard, or earlier in this arc; "why even bother with gears 2 or 3?" everyone would be asking. If it's not one thing, it's another. I for one, love the fact that Luffy is out of commission after using this; it makes it a true trump card. It also means that he still has to get better, and he has a long way to go. That works for me.

    • RE: Iga is doing wtf Konami isn't doing (Bloodstained kickstarter)

      Can't wait to play Silent Hill pachinko. To be fair, it would probably still be better than Downpour.

    • RE: Community

      I want to puke saying this, but Community is not appointment viewing for me anymore. The last episode I saw was the email one; I just haven't felt like watching the rest. It's not that I haven't like them–Queer Studies and Advanced Waxing is in my top 5 all time and I haven't disliked any this season--but, the drive to watch them is just gone.

      I don't know if it's because they come out in the middle of the night, if it's that I have to watch them on my computer, or what, but Community has slid from being my obsession. And my favorite show on TV. That's honestly Gravity Falls at this point. The Flash and Penny Dreadful are also more fun/ I look forward to them more.

      This is like an identity crisis for me.

      I don't know what's happening anymore.

      @Screwtape:

      Thats because besides champions attempt, nothing happened.

      Yeah, besides a bunch of people who know they'll get slaughtered banding together to fight Doflamingo in order to buy Luffy some time. But yeah, big emotional moments and great development for minor characters is equivalent to nothing happening, amirite?

      Please sell Silent Hill off to someone to someone who will love and care for it.

      Meanwhile, SuperBunnyHop posted a follow-up video. No new info, just discussing what happened after the first went up.
