Watched Stampede last night, I'm surprised that it has such a high score on MAL. I thought it was just alright. It ended up just being one big fight and it didn't really feel like that much of a story tbh. The main villains were pretty lackluster. It was cool to see a bunch of different characters come together to take down Bullet and Usopp had some great moments but I felt like it could have been so much more. I would've loved to see more of the festival and see the strawhats get into different antics and just have fun for a while but it turned into the main fight very quickly.

I thought Gold was so much better cause we actually got to explore the "island" a little bit and the new characters were given time to breath. The overall story of Gold was better too cause it felt like the villains actually had reasons for their actions, Nami had a connection to one of the new characters and there was a nice twist in the story. In Stampede it was very much "we're evil so we do evil things".

One Piece is an uplifting adventure. Every death is rare and holds incredible meaning to the people nearest to the deceased. They will follow in their footsteps and their character progresses out of that. Oda has made his treatment of death quite clear till this point. The impact of each death is massive.

Now I am not saying Kinemon is save but he is notimportant enough to Luffy in that sense. It would just be a shockfactor.

Now that still might be the case with Momonosuke who knows really.

I am not a big fan of making One Piece this serious but we‘ll see what Oda does. Now if youre caught up to the manga I doubt there will still be a massive tragedy like having a major character die for this arc honestly Its a shounen manga afterall

CR coming through with the full clip and not some less than 90 second nonsense

or chopping up and shortening the scene, killing all of that ryuo, i mean, flow

Need a clip of all the entrances and Sabo/Ace/Luffy scene and we'll be good

@Jake I feel dumb asf for not being able to put this together on my own but what where the things that momo did/said up until the Toki time time fruit reveal that had people thinking he was a time traveler but dismissive of that idea since he is/was a child

ROOF PIECE

Something about being on Roger ship back in the Zou arc when they were going up the tree for the poneglyph.

F***

That's mad obvious now that you mention it cause that mf was doing all of that 20-25 years ago in their world

Bro dropped it so nonchalantly like when Garp talked about Luffy’s family

Oda needs to stop baiting deaths. Either kill someone, or don't.

I was about to say at least with Garp there was a reaction but man there was with this too:

Title

That thumbnail

His head look mad weird there.

Dawg I was thinking the same 😭😭😭

using that arrangment of WE ARE is a cheat code too

These boys came in today

A little smaller than I was expecting but the only other young Law and Corazon figures that go together are like $500. Just glad to have something of these two.

I rarely watch the anime since read the manga ofc, but I'll watch a new ep every now and then and I gotta say Yamato is a better character in the anime than the manga

No new chapter this week

1048 DELAYED??? now that’s just foul

Hope Oda is doing well, id literally never b able to do what he does even if I DID have the ideas, the creativity, storytelling ability, AND the drawing ability

But bruhhhhhhhhhhhh this s*** hurts

They hit the e streets very early this week y’all be easy

Chapter is officially out next Sunday, right? @Jake

If that's the case I thought that was set for a while because there was going to be a Jump break and an Oda break back to back
