One Piece Thread: Gear 2nd!

A fishman is the only real asset I can see for the crew in the New World.

My thing is I understand ā€˜why’ - its to show the improvement. My ā€˜issue/iriititation/whateverness’ about it is tied to it being so long. It could have been paced faster if that was the point. This arc had the length of an IMPORTANT arc, but I’m not walking away feeling as though it WAS important.

I hope one piece is still going by the time my kid is old enough to read … that’ll be the bed time story >_>

There’s already been a solid decade of One Piece and we’re just entering the new world, Oda says the series has roughly 1000 chapters planned, so that another 10 years. If you had a kid now you could literally have him or her grow up with One Piece! :woot:

One Piece is FUNdamental!!! :tup:

Oh and it was really cool seeing Sanji’s Blue Walk animated. Can’t wait for the Hodi confrontation to also be animated.

Blue Walk reminded me of CP9’s Geppo. I wonder if Sanji learned a technique similar to Rankyaku as well.

Now that you mention it I think I need to have a kid so they can get started on One Piece asap. Gonna work on that tonight.

Blue Walk is Geppou, just underwater, and Sanji knows how to do Geppou as well…

Rankyaku Sanji sounds pretty OP though, although it would be helpful if he learned it near the end.

:lol: I like how you can just decide that on a whim.

Jimbe wouldn’t join I don’t think. He’s too old.

It counterbalances all of my reasons why I haven’t had one yet lol. Being able to share OP >>>> Insecurities and Daddy issues. My girl loves OP too so I’m sure she’ll agree just as quickly loooooool. She’d probably try to name the kid Chopper.

Brook is 70 something…

haha i know when i have a kid, he/she/it is gonna have a chopper halloween costume rd, i saw an awesome one when i was in Japan awhile back …

I unno in terms of battle styles … jimbei fishman karate something different from rest of crew … so for the sake of variety in fights in future arcs makes sense if he joins …

assuming jimbei joins, that leaves one spot … and the SH have yet to have a logia type crew member … hmm … the mud guy ? ( lol j/k trolling) but logia user as a final member seems to make sense to me … again we can all speculate as much as we want … no matter what oda does … i’m just enjoying the journey …

What I meant was that he’s already experience the Grand Line with the White Beards. For all the other SHs this is a brand new experience, including Brook. Doesn’t really make sense to bring a seasoned vet in with a bunch of rookies.

Yeah, I can see that. I’m still convinced he’s joining, but your theory makes a lot more sense than any other counter argument I’ve heard. I think it’s going to come down to Luffy saying HEY YOU’RE A FISH!! BE MY NAKAMA!!! DO YOU POOP?

All this ā€œlogicā€ goes out the window when it boils down to Luffy’s decisions.

Man, gonna be in europe for work …

… if i don’t find anywhere with internet where we’re going … i think i’ll die if i can’t read my One Piece

New chapter is out !

hmmmm, the 9th ?

You guys…

I didn’t see ANY of this happening! THIS IS ALL A HUGE SURPRISE!

One Piece is great! I LOVE YOU ONE PIECE. Always keeping me on the edge of my seat! The New World is so hardCORE.

Broken record sarcasm is boring… Work on that trolling a bit, needs some flavor.

Though I agree and been saying it all along. Jinbei will join. Soooo obvious.

Seems I was half-right. I couldn’t imagine the crew chemistry of having Jimbei in the crew, but I guess Oda has other plans in mind. Such an incredible asset, I don’t even know what power ranking he would have in the crew, so ambiguously strong.

ROUNDHOUSE KING!

I knew this would happen to Luffy too, but the real question is why does Luffy have such a profound connection to Roger, it almost seems like Roger’s will is manifested in him, like a reincarnation of sorts. Something I’ve noticed ever since the Don Krieg Arc.


It’s the hat. It has magic powers.

It’ll be nice and all that Jinbei will join…But I think he will refuse…I dont see as that type of person to just leave Fishman Island in times of needing a protector. Also he has his old crew somewhere and he already traveled vast oceans with Fishman Tiger. I just cant picture him saying " hmm…I guess I wanna go out again and join some other crew"

Also no one is talking bout this but, Luffy is literally like fishman blood now…I believe it will be some sort of cancel is gonna happen to the ā€œhammerā€ curse of being a DF user.
