Predaking-117 Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 Chiffon got some close calls before Oven could do anything to her, with Bege coming back for his wife. Wonder if something's gonna happen to Carrot when the full moon rises. And Luffy acts like Goku (unless the former's done stuff like this before; can't remember) and will want to bring down Dogtooth at his best. That oughta be a hell of a fight, with more certainly to come with future foes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luffy didn't said things like that before because he was always goofing around and didn't understood full weight of being a captain completely. Now with him getting an experience of how strong an Emperor's power and influence is and the recent war, I think Oda is trying to demonstrate Luffy's maturity with respect to the weight of his position as someone trying to aim for the seat of Pirate King. Edit: Oh btw; Bege was bad-ass again this chapter. Edited November 27, 2017 by dragonamar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Predaking-117 Posted December 1, 2017 Report Share Posted December 1, 2017 I laughed when Oven got seemingly run over by Bege's ship. But now the cake is on the way to Big Mom (even when Chiffon's dad apparently gets beheaded just to buy Sanji and co. time). Oh yeah, Big Mom's caught up to the Sunny again.

D.Knight Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 That scene of ship running over Oven was quite funny but then execution of chiffon's dad left quite a few readers including me sad considering he didn't leave much of impression when he first got introduced.

Edit: Oh btw; Bege was bad-ass again this chapter. I don't know, I always felt that Luffy has always been surprisingly mature when it matters - remember the lecture he gave Vivi in Alabasta? And dealing with Usopp during Water 7? I don't know if him wanting to beat Katakuri has anything to do with that though - he's always been like that, I think. And I will very disappointed if he suddenly manages to pull future sight level of Observation Haki out of his ass, like was implied in the second last chapter - that just goes completely against the nice power creep One Piece has always had, IMO. Sounds like - well, it sounds like something Goku would do. Or rather, DBZ in general. And that would suck for One Piece. Quote Edit: Oh btw; Bege was bad-ass again this chapter. This chapter has made me actually like Bege, which was totally unexpected. I got some respect for him when I saw his genuine love for his family, but it's even higher now.

I'd be a bit surprised if the dad is actually dead - One Piece has ridiculous levels of plot armor most times, almost nobody ever dies. Seriously, apart from Ace and Whitebeard, I can't think of a single other character who's died in anything other than a flashback. Hell, I just checked the wiki, and they haven't even listed Pedro as dead yet due to OP's tendency to rez people. In general, if the reader doesn't see the body, they ain't dead.

Yes i completely agree that he has surprising level of understanding when it comes to way the world works. But when i say maturity, i meant it as the Captain leading his crew to the top of this pirate era. Take a look at the Enies Lobby arc. When he learned to push his abilities further it was due to his desire to protect his friends but at that point he hadn't truly known a total defeat which he faced at the Sabaody archipelago and then the War. I think with Luffy's attitude towards Katakuri, Oda is trying to demonstrate that Luffy now not only just fights to protect his friends but also as someone who understands the true level of the world, and what he has has to overcome in-order to stand at the top of this era as the Pirate King. 34 minutes ago, SirVer said: I'd be a bit surprised if the dad is actually dead - One Piece has ridiculous levels of plot armor most times, almost nobody ever dies.

Yes; there is that possibility seeing as Oda refrains from showing deaths unless and until it's truly necessary for the story to progress.

OK, yeah, that makes sense. I just hope he handles it well - I don't want him to get any bullshit powerups out of nowhere. Although, it's hard to see how he'll win without something like that - Katakuri has literally twice Luffy's bounty on his head, after all. I'm not sure even Doflamingo would've been that high, and it took Luffy AND Law nearly killing themselves to beat him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Predaking-117 Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 This week, Luffy goes back to fighting Dogtooth, and Carrot essentially goes nuts on the enemy. With a smile on her face. Oh this'll be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirVer Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 Welp, Carrot is hot now. But still a kid, apparently. Can't wait to see Sanji's reaction to that one. Was kinda hoping it'd be a more monstrous form, but oh well, this is cool too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That fight with Doflamingo was draged on unnecessarily. I mean Luffy had one or two chances to finish him off earlier in the fight but he didn't. Same thing he did in gear 4th. He kept gawking and wasting time instead of delivering the finishing blow. I wouldn't really call that killing themselves because their opponent was too strong; its just this guys were messing around too much. When it comes to Luffy's current state, I get the feeling he hasn't yet shown all his tricks he learned in those 2 years. That being said I expect the fight with Katakuri to end up in a draw at best or end up being postponed until Luffy comes with his pirate fleet to challenge big mom later in a full scale war.

Predaking-117 Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 So Sanji's cake is indeed so sweet and delicious you could die, but let's hope it reaches Big Mom in time. Who just happened to jump right on the Sunny. Not good at all. At least Carrot and Brook took out some more enemy ships beforehand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Predaking-117 Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 This week, Big Mom really is getting thinner, but before she can damage the Sunny any further, gets thrown off thanks to Jinbei and Brook (and his usual antics/quick thinking). But really, Nami threatening Zeus to be her slave or die made me really lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Predaking-117 Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Luffy is still putting up a fight against Dogtooth, and may have to deal with another major enemy in the process. At least Sanji’s group got the cake done and are bringing it to Big Mom now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gangstabean Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 How different is the Manga from the Anime...I'm thinking about starting to watching One piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer to see anime first since it gives a good grasp over the series characters, tone and overall flow. So my suggestion is watch anime first, up till episode 516 (this is up till first half of grand line) and then read manga from chapter 598. This is a long series, but if one enjoys adventure and shounen series then One Piece is a must watch.

D.Knight Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 @Gangstabean one piece by far has better fillers than most of anime so i think you might enjoy those. The fillers are light and fun. Every time someone mention one piece fillers though i end up remembering that Split-head fox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
