@Demon:

My Bullshit sense is tingling….

Why?... why do people CONTINUE to buy into the myth that "Nakama Is a Super special word"?

Kaizoku Fansubs really caused some serious damage to this fanbase...

Instead of nakama they can use friend companion etc it hasn't to be nakama the same happened a few episodes ago in fish man island when luffy said JINBE BECAME OUR NAKAMA/FRIEND etc etc and yibis dubbed it JINBE JOIN OUR CREW it was just a question why they always tend to avoid using de word or the translation of it.

@Vegard:

Assuming anyone still cares at this point… The Yibis-sub of this special has been released. (And don't mind the topic title, that's just Socky making a joke. The word "Nakama" does not appear anywhere in the translation.)

why yibis never use the word nakama? in the end when luffy defeat arlong luffy clearly said NAMI YOU ARE OUR NAKAMA, and yibis dubbed NAMI YOU ARE ONE OF US, they don't like the word too much XD

why anyone is worried about deguchi making episode 554? there are a lot of epic scenes in that episode and is one of my favorites (luffy's amazing haki and gear third) i really hope they make that well, i cant understand why they waste izhisuka and shingaki in this lame episodes and i really don't know in witch way toei make this kind of decisions like hey let's use the amazing ishizuka in this average episode but call deguchi to animate luffy defeating 50000 men with haki.

@silversatyr:

Also, did anyone else see in the newest (?) SBS where Oda mentioned something about the Marines? Methinks there's something big in the works. I'm definitely looking forward to it.

Someone have that sbs? if that is true it will be amazing.

sometimes i don't understand toei at all, i can't understand how they chose deguchi to animate such an important episode, the art was VERY bad at some parts, but well besides that nice episode

yeah it doesn't matter if they manage to do an amazing job in the next part.

No new name
No starting from episode 1
