yeah, whitebeard's reaction to ace's departure vs. his original reaction to shanks doesn't jive

also the "ace trying to kill whitebeard before loving him" thing seems forced

FINALLY ODA SUCCUMBS TO MARVELISM

I saw a special on Japanese TV about how manga authors are basically given entire freedom over their creations until they become hits, at which point the publisher can veto just about anything the creator proposes. So there's a possibility that this was some kind publisher mandate, or an intentionally bad, over-the-top response to something the publisher demanded.

Chapter was a little weak.  I can't believe I am agreeing with MCD, but the chaos without any actual character development is kinda boring.  The sooner they focus on specific people and their fights (hopefully interesting people) the better.

Also this is just a scan problem but these chapters being all 2 page spreads makes it a bitch to read one page at a time.

I agree with this. These chapters have been good, but I just want Luffy to get involved already. I feel like I'll appreciate this section more animated, because it's not doing as much for me as OP normally does right now.

he actually confirmed it.

If i remember correctly it was hinted in the manga (i think it was cp9) that the concept of 2 will cancel out each and kill the user.

Great chapter.
I think next chapter is it.  Ace is either going to die in front of Luffy's eyes as he's flying towards him or Luffy is going to save Ace.

I hope it's the latter!

+Coby moment, also reintroduces power levels with "OH SHIT I CAN'T DO ANYTHING WITH THESE GUYS HERE"
+Good THIS IS WAR speech by Flamingo
+Nice spread of Whitebeard f'ckin up stuff
+Garp character stuff
+Setting up Sengoku's plan
+Awesome unexpected Luffy entrance STRAIGHT INTO THE MIDDLE OF BATTLE

Pretty good for 19 pages.  Especially compared to 3 chapters of just BATTLE BATTLE BATTLE (which should work better in the anime, especially if they aren't stubborn and condense it all into 1-2 eps)

so i guess its a combination of the main crew chapter, some filler and possibly the small stories that goes on every chapter cover?

well to be fair chapters are still coming out so there is time to put some.

Plus oddly enough there is seemingly no episode about him yet

Weather Science - Nami
KaraKuri Island - Franky
Giant Bird Island - Chopper
Pink Paradise - Sanji
Bridge that connects islands - Robin
Man eating plants - Usopp


Was checking out the One piece wikia and came up on this...

Quote
Hancock's earliest seen design appeared initially on the front cover of a 1999 issue of Shonen Jump, and later was reprinted in Color Walk 2. When the Straw Hats entered the Grand Line, Oda was asked by his editing department to draw villains that would appear from there on. He agreed to and drew their backs for the Shonen Jump cover. While some parts of Hancock's have definitely changed since then, Oda fully intended at the time for the design to be her.

http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/onepiece/images/thumb/b/b3/Early_Hancock.JPG/180px-Early_Hancock.JPG


supposedly this question came from one of his SBS panel talks and if true then holy crap  :o
