Just finished watching the series with my wife, absolutely loved it! I’m glad this was able to be a worthy adaptation, and I definitely cried at the “help me” scene.

RE: Luffy will be on the MACY'S PARADE!!!!
I’m very excited for the clueless hosts to explain who Luff-ee is.

RE: Anyone else never heard of Don Quixote before getting into One Piece?
Yeah I knew of him, I think we watched some cartoon of him in Spanish class once. Plus, as a student of the arts, I knew the musical Man of La Mancha which is all about Donny Q. (There’s also the rum of the same name)

Alright, I don’t know whose idea it was to give Nusstorte a Cap’n Crunch voice, but it was an inspired choice.

@zorosempai anime did not change the line, crunchyroll translator did
Yeah, I noticed that, although Toei added a Zoro moment that wasn't there.
Still, it's kind of annoying that even anime translators have agendas.
The agenda being “if I don’t get this translated quick enough, I’m fired.” So mistakes can be made.

RE: Chapter 1065: Six Vegapunks
How many Strawhats got the lecture that Fishman/Merfolk offspring were sorta wildcards though? Easy to forget when you’re a human, I’m sure, that a fishman having a son that looks just like them is 1/a billion.

Wow yeah that’s all three calamities, huh? Awesome!
Also looks like Major has some Broadway credits, such as the Genie in Aladdin (not OBC but still) so I’m even more excited for Queen’s songs now! What a great pick!

Can’t believe Mac Tonight is a legitimate threat in One Piece.

RE: General Gundam Thread
Keep going! I’m one of the weirdos who loves ZZ all the way through, but I get why that first section isn’t for everyone. The lighthearted tone is very refreshing for me after how Zeta ended up (even though it nearly a year between viewings for me.)
I’m catching up on Witch from Mercury right now and while I don’t think it’ll crack my top 5, it’s still pretty good and unique from other Gundam series.

RE: RIP Those We Lost in 2024
I started watching classic Who for the first time at the start of the year, so I am saddened.

RE: Multiversus: Warner Bros Smash
@Robby it was only ever in early access and they took it offline to rework mechanics and stability and things. The offline mode has remained open, and purchases and progress earned before the shutoff will remain once it launches, so nothing nothing was taken from anyone, just an extended vacation.

It’s also “currently unavailable” on Amazon, which I’ve never seen before for a One Piece DVD release.

Whoops, wife and I accidentally watched the whole set in two nights. Our faces hurt from smiling so much.

Yay, an announcement with a release date! Boo that it’s a couple days later than usual, but for Luffy’s Birthday I’ll make an exception.

@Trueblade74 Korosensei does also routinely dress up as other popular Manga/Anime characters, so that fits waaaaay more.

RE: Funimation DVD Discussion IV (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
Yeah I noticed that too, people can be very foolish and only hear what they want to hear. Essentially, in the moment, they are equally funny, but in 17 years and 1070 episodes, I don’t think they’ve ever spoken Japanese like that outside of titles, terms, and Boss Luffy specials.
It’s funny, it’s a classic cartoon exclamation, very Daffy Duck. It proves that every choice the dub has made has been the right one to lead us to this exact moment (ok maybe that’s a bit too far but I cackled at that clip.)
