:uguu To be honest, I haven't delved into Shonen Jump properties, but this is a damn fine deal IMO. Enough to make me start looking into their digital reader application (already up)'s library to see if there's more things than One Piece and My Hero Academia to read.

This is my opportunity to advertise One Piece as the greatest comic ever made. When it is over, it will have outsold Batman and Superman and known across the world as the greatest comic ever made and you will be sad if you are not a part of it. I am expecting it to outsell Batman's lifetime sales next year. I think it's getting close.

Real facts.

If you do not believe me and you're having trouble getting into it at the early stages read until they hit Loguetown. If you do not like it by the time they hit the Grand Line all is lost for you. It takes them approx. 100 chapters for them to get to the Grand Line, which frankly, is nothing. But stick with it. Once Arlong is in the picture, every arc gets better and better than the one before with few exceptions.

Finally, One Piece has been a part of my life since I was 18. I have been reading it ever since. It has brought me countless joy these years and I have been reading it almost half of my life. It will bring you joy as well.

When creating a Devil Fruit, Oda thinks of something that would fulfill a human desire; he added that he does not see why he would draw a Devil Fruit unless the fruit's appearance would entice one to eat it.

If the Death of Superman storyline didn't use the visual motif of decreasing panels it would have no merits whatsoever.

I like the anime but at the same time, fuck the anime.

It’s not a bad route starting out but still no replacement for the manga.

Imo the best manner is to just read the manga and if you ever encounter a great scene in the manga search for it in YouTube and it will be there in clip form without having to dedicate 20 minutes of your time to watching it. Watching the anime is a time commitment. The manga takes less to go through and you’ll know if you like it or not faster.

The manga also has better art, pacing, cover stories (like how they managed Koby’s arc or teased Garp), and was curated by Oda. That said, the anime is worth watching to a point. I just can’t recommend watching the anime over the manga for too many reasons.

On the digital reader app, there is. But yeah... they really need to get a catalog up for the subscription to be really enticing. I'd pay $2/month to Marvel, for instance.

Right now I’m betting on 5.

Preparing for end game != it’s in end game.

But the cards are definitely all on table at this point and moves are being made for the near finale. There two, maybe three more arcs left after the current one. With each last a year or two it puts us at 6 maximum. But we have to finish the current arc which will last all of 2019. So it’ll end likely in 2025 or 2026. But it’s definitely preparing for the end. Almost every week in One Piece now we get answers to questions that have been built up for 15+ years. As a long time fan, it’s beautiful to see and be rewarded almost every week with answers.

Imagine ASOIF. if Martin weren’t a hack and you got answers to decades of build up and he still made books. :uguu

It's a pirate manga about romance. Not that romance, but the spirit of adventure. One Piece is the fabled treasure left by a man, Gol D Roger, who donned the title the King of the Pirates. He was the only pirate with a crew that successfully sailed across the world and land at the fabled island of Raftel. Upon his death he declared, with a smile, that he left his treasure on Raftel. It is called One Piece, and it is real! His death was meant to kill the age of the pirates but instead created a golden age of piracy as pirates searched the seas in search for One Piece. Whoever finds it becomes the king - or queen - of pirates. The story is that of an adventure of the main character, Monkey D Luffy, and his crew, as they adventure to find the legend and become legends themselves. No one knows what One Piece is despite it being the title. All we know is that it's a legendary treasure and thus, the adventure begins!

Adventure, drama and friendship.

I should probably add something to this, cuz that's pretty standard shounen fare AFAIK. :doge

One of my favorite recurring themes of One Piece which is so powerful is that if you die your dreams and ideals can live on, so you don't really die. The next generation can live out your ideals.

It starts out that way too, with Gold Roger's death. He died, but his death heralded the Pirate Era.

There are other, better and more dramatic examples, but I don't wanna spoil anything.

Needless to say, shit is powerful.

Indeed.

Just found this thread.

Where you at now? Did you keep going, or drop it at some point?

I watched the anime back in college up until something like episode 500. Can't remember exactly. Then after that the anime was perpetually caught up to the manga, so the anime's pacing after that turned to complete crap. That's when I switched to the manga. Still, I miss the music and voices of the anime. But watching 15 pages of manga be stretched out to 20+ minute episodes became torture. It made me really appreciate the filler-episode approach of series like Naruto, where you could just skip 100 worthless episodes.

Oh, and it's pretty uniformly accepted as Zoro, not Zolo. Those old manga translations might have some weird spellings, though.

Yeah, things really escalate in the Grand Line. I would say the power scaling is not perfect but still pretty good. Certainly better than Naruto/Bleach/DBZ, IMO.

Pell surviving that nuke has become a running joke among fans, though.

So, we're now up to Luffy and Crew trying to find a painter for their new ship to go underwater (as supposed into the sky) for the next island on the Log Pose. Once they do that, they're in the "New World" after that which means the back-half of the Grand Line.

I'm really enjoying the manga. A lot. It keeps cranking up the action, which when reading Dragonball (but this is mostly a complaint about Z), I really miss. Dragonball's "I have to find someone stronger. AHHHHH *training montage*" and that shit gets majorly boring. (I'm mostly reading that for a straight-guy crush, tbh) Whereas here Oda seems to go "yeah, that previous arc? I'm going to throw Luffy and Crew into a loop and while Luffy and crew punch/kick/slice/etc. the shit out of folks, they are also trying to help others while these new Devil Fruit powers change the dynamics of these fights up into crazy proportions" and it's just REALLY FUCKING GOOD and a breath of fresh air as someone that generally doesn't read Shonen manga because of said Dragonball bullshit plotlines.

So we're up to another jailbreak (so soon!?) but this time around, it's saving Luffy's brother, Ace!, from execution!

Bonus: Buggy, Mr. 3, and Crocodile are also there. And Buggy and Mr. 3 are helping Luffy go down (while they want to go UP!) to see Ace/break him out.

It's cool to see Oda revisit old characters and allow the crew to change their minds on them. Old enemies becoming allies/friends or just being annoying.

Anyway, the "war" has started. Luffy's crew is still broken apart (I guess this is where the time-skip I've heard about comes in soon) is Luffy is nearly at Ace's side. Meanwhile, the war is going on all around him and shit is popping off. I had to stop for the night (as reading another 20 or so chapters to catch up to my 100 chapters a month goal would burn me out to like 1AM-2AM on catching up at my current reading speeds), but MANNNNNN I don't want to.

This arc seems pretty slow. We're at the Mermaid/Fishman island, and... one of the older Fishmen with a SEETHING hatrid of humans is trying to take over the nation now. Jimbai is like "Luffy, please don't go. If you do the fishmen will hate humans forever-more" but Luffy is like "nah, bro, they have my crew. I'm going" so they attempt to fight.

Anyway, Sanji is the voice of reason. Maybe in the next chapters Jimbai and Luffy will team up. :yeshrug That's for another day.

Fishman island...is an odd beast. relish that it's short. It's mostly set up for later. a lot of New World has been slower than what was before but is also better on re-read. On the current arc it is now back to pre- time skip quality. Fishman Island is one of my least favorite arcs in the series fwiw. Consider it a treat for seeing the SH's get bopped and tossed around constantly from Sabaody and on. It's a very political, plot focused arc that gets better with age. I think it also sufficiently humanizes Arlong and makes his motivations more realistic even if he's still cruel.

In the last few arcs the story OP is doing is incredible.

And FWIW, despite what bad lgbt jokes made by One Piece I still wish Ivankov was real so she could me cis. I find her an empowering character as a trans person.

One thing I've noticed since Volume 63 or so, Viz has changed the digital versions to have a "space" for the two-piece spreads. It's really annoying to see a white-space for something that digitally was together. I get why (the scanning for the book makes it easier I guess) but it's really annoying to see the white space on Desktop, I've switched from phone-reading on the app to desktop for this purpose (to have the two-page spreads look better) and Oda seems to be doing a ton of them now. :|

I forget, is he the one that lives in Ivankov's hair and has the power to cut anything? He was pretty cool, but seemed not very used in the jail-break arc. Maybe the Anime gives him more time.

I really like Ivankov because despite the "ugh" gay jokes, Ivankov kinda subverts the tropes (so to speak) and it's clear Oda puts a lot of "care" into that character (IIRC he likes the Rocky Horror Picture show and based the character on that, the voice-actor as well is one that he specifically targeted because he liked their drag performance? It's in one of the SBS's for that arc....)

I actually disliked that, because it didn't seem very plausible to me. If 100% of the fishmen you've met have actively murdered the ones you love and enslaved you and your town, I don't think it's possible to get out of that situation without prejudice. And then forgiving Hatsu so easily just added to the implausibility, especially if you go back and read the arc and see that Hatsu cared as little about the humans as his pals, laughing at the murder and suffering. His character was a pretty blatant retcon.

Nami as Franky was the best.

She didn't do much in the manga. Maybe in the anime they utilize her more as that. But I was dying at Chopper's expressions under Franky.

Dressrorsa is great in bulk. It was mind numbing slow while it was going on though. First OP arc with real pacing issues but its all gravy from here.

After Dressrosa, you have the best arcs in One Piece since pre-time skip. Currently the manga is on par with the Old World arcs in quality and all the pieces from New World are coming together like a puzzle. It's beautiful.

Anyway, we're in the end game with this next ten chapters I think. Doflamingo is going to get knocked the fuck out with "one punch" by Luffy now that he's recovered from Gear Fours refractory period.

So my vacation started yesterday and today I decided to sit-down and crank out some One Piece so I'm caught up to current manga schedule.

Chapters 830-899 (Chapter 900 now makes it 952 with the current manga on Shonen Jump and the weekly schedule. So in the next few days I might actually be caught up... maybe...):

Arc was fucking huge: Taking up about 70 chapters (barring the 30 to set-up), which seems a little longer than the typical One Piece arc, but it might just be the slow build up to the wedding, the quickly done wedding, and then the drawn out (IMO) exiting. I'm still not out of the territory yet, but I think it's about over.

Fun fact, these last few trade-paper-backs line up with the ten chapters, so I blew through like 6 or so volumes today. Not bad. I'm nearly caught up with the trade-paperbacks and since these weekly releases happen on Shonen Jump, I'm going to blow past Volume 94 (which is supposed to be published this month?) this week if I do ~10 chapters a day.

I mean if you're reading the piracy/fan-translation: Why are you doing that? See OP: Shonen Jump is releasing the chapters FOR FREE (for like 3 chapter releases so the last of the three becomes "paid-for") on their website now a days. There's no reason to use the pirated manga options for Shonen Jump (and Viz properties like Jojo's) now a days.

In fact, I'd highly recommend their Netflix approach since I've been catching up on Jojo's (up to the Part 3 of like 7 arc in that, and there's only 4 on the Shonen Jump app so far... so...), Dragon Ball/Z (should start Super, but I'm trying to catch up on One Piece before that), My Hero Academia (see previous reason), and other stuff like Tokyo Ghoul, so you should be able to find something you want to read for like $2/month. It's a solid and cheap subscription and I'm honestly surprised other publishing houses for manga like... forgetting the Shoju... Yen press(? I think it's the women focused ones), hasn't done it themselves.

Fan translations come out Thursday/Friday. A few days before the official, which is always released on Monday. Many of us read the scanlation and then read the official. Good way to avoid spoilers, and you'll soon find that you don't want to wait a second for more One Piece. You'll need your fix asap.

When you catch up you'll be reading on Jaiminisbox like the rest of us on Friday's.

I dunno, I certainly can wait. It's not like I'm going around looking for future spoilers or anything in the manga scene. So whenever Shonen Jump is like "oh, hey, we have new chapters for you" in the stuff that I'm reading (like Chainsaw Man), I'll read it the day that update happens or not.

Do your thing. But most of us read scanlations in some shape or form. Once you're caught up I wouldn't peek into One Piece thread on Thursday/Friday/Saturday and if you hang around r/OnePiece no one who talks about the manga will be holding back once the chapter is out. There'll be discussion and memes all over the place. So if you're going to catch up and follow One Piece and read boards be aware that's how it goes because official releases come out later.

WCI dragged but Dressrosa didn't? Dressrosa imo was the first badly paced arc in the series. It was so bad I stopped reading One Piece for the first time in a decade so I could read it in bulk. It was much better read in bulk to be fair, but week to week was maddening. Meanwhile, WCI was tense as fuck.

Title: Re: Pogi-BB, Himu, and HoMoMo: Get through back issues of One Piece for $2/month.
Post by: PogiJones on August 05, 2019, 03:26:06 AM

Dressrosa's "dragging" felt like tension-building to me. WCI's "dragging" felt like dragging.

I think it's the characters. WCI's characters didn't grab me except for Pudding for mild heartstring plucking and Katakuri and Big Mom as imposing villains. The rest of the cast was forgettable to me, maybe partially due to their designs, which I disliked. But virtually every character in Dressrosa was appealing to me, except for maybe the fighting fish human hybrid dude. Doffy was an incredibly competent and despicable (read: wonderful) villain, my favorite in the series by far. Law, Rosanante, Rebecca, the toy soldier, Violet, Senior Pink and his "woman named 'Russian'"... they all tugged my heartstrings, and I loved every one of them.

The story may have been long, but the entire time it was just building and building tension, until... the memories coming back was sudden, sweeping, and incredibly cathartic, as everyone broke down crying remembering their loved ones. And Usopp had his most heroic moment in the series, matched only, perhaps, by the Enies Lobby sniping. But it was incredibly hilarious at the same time.

Let me put it this way: I remember most of the moments from most of the fights in Dressrosa. I've forgotten all the fights except the biggest moments from WCI, even though I read it much more recently. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The Dressrosa characters and their stories got me way for invested in the fights themselves, so every part of it was more memorable to me.

Title: Re: Pogi-BB, Himu, and HoMoMo: Get through back issues of One Piece for $2/month.
Post by: Himu on August 05, 2019, 03:38:42 AM

Dressrosa's coliseum bit definitely dragged. With all those characters? All those introductions. And you had to remember all those fighters in the coliseum while you were at it too. And they all ended up playing a part. The way the story evolves and the way characters are introduced in Dressrosa is just setting the table up. It was necessary but not without growing pains. The arc was fucking huge and took forever. WCI by comparison had Old World like pacing to me. :idont

By contrast, I liked every single design in WCI. I thought Oda was in his element. The Disney like talking cakes/tea going "eat me" or "drink me". Smoothie turning those people into smoothies and drinking them. Katakuri, that fucking Big Mom son that uses goddamn candy to replace his dismembered arm. What an arc with utterly rad designs, and then the next arc goes and tops it. :rejoice

To be honest, I'm not sure why you wouldn't remember the "big moment" fights in WCI. It's not that kind of arc. There *were* no fights except big fights. The only fights in Whole Cake are: Cracker vs Luffy (which was hilarious), the assassination attempt, Big Mom chase (which wasn't really a fight so much as it was a chase), and Luffy vs Katakuri. To be honest, while I loved the story of Dressrosa in the end, the build up to that was maddening with too much stuff going on.

I think Whole Cake overall had better moments: Sanji meeting his family, food that talks and begs to be eaten, everything involving Pudding, Sanji finding redemption and showing in the face of the hatred for his family, Luffy starving halfway near to death and refusing to eat without seeing Sanji, Luffy vs Sanji, Sanji outside Pudding's window, the assassination plot, GASTINO, "a third eye, you're so beautiful", Morgans, Brook getting the poneglyph, Katakuri, the chase, Nami getting a powerup, Pedro :tocry, the fucked up back story of Big Mom, the mix of various fairy tales around the world;etc. I think it was far better paced and much higher moments.

But everyone has their own favorite arcs and least favorite arcs so it works out in the end.

Agreed to disagree.

Pudding for Nakama. :aah

Finally. They've been talking about this all series long, and so we get into it.

So this is where all the royalty that Luffy helped finally meet. However, the Mermaid Princess was about to be put into Slavery while everyone was like "WE CAN'T FIGHT THE DRAGONS!" and one of the Celestrial Dragons that said Mermen helped about a decade ago finally comes up, punches the fuck out of the one that was going to take the Princess ( :gladbron ) and says "stick with me, I'll protect you."

Otherwise this batch didn't have a lot happen (hence the lack of photos) and is pretty much setting up for the next 10 I guess.

Now I can start up Dragonball Super and finish up Jojo (to the end of Part 4, whenever Viz releases the others anyway).

Congrats! Now join us in the thread every now and then.

What do you think of one piece now that you’re caught up?

I like it. I like how Oda tries to keep things fresh. But I really do hope we get to the One Piece sometime soon, because if we're still going for 1,500 chapters without getting there, that's just crazy pacing.

It's the journey that matters - I don't care what one piece actually is.
