EPTImo the theory makes a lot of sense, and even tho I already read it, I would be so fucking impressed if this was Oda's plan all along. I mean, the key hint is basically in the freaking title aka he had this idea from the start. The patience he has to have to tell his story must be enormous. Compare that to a 'Naruto' or a 'Bleach' where the title doesnt nearly seems to hold as much meaning...

This pretty much already hints that a big war will come... Honestly....I kinda hated marineford. Took way too long to resolve any issues and didn't get interesting until the end when BB showed up. And then the flashback arc...ugh. | ||

For some reason it just doesn't sit right with me that Roger's treasure would basically be "Good job guys, here's another task for you to go and do for world peace or something." but hey, maybe I'm just silly.  Unless roger's treasure was in fact the fulfillment of Justice in the world of OP. Which could tackle many issues about the moral and social aspects of its inhabitants (eg. Sabo incident). Remember although luffy's a pirate king wannabe, he could also be socially conscious and sympathetic to people; he could very well be the most deserved to be King. Strong and influential people tend to bear responsibility. The strongest person (in terms of strength, will, sense of justice etc) would have to shoulder everything | ||

Please get some sense into your arguments. You appear to be almost obsessed with forcing real life science into the OP universe in spite of the fact that every other person you see in OP is able to breath fire or double jump in the air. None of us knows anything about the geography or geological details of OP, so stop trying to use real life science to make sense of things. Also you seem to completely misunderstand Luffy's motives (and Roger's for that matter). I'm pretty sure that i don't speak for myself if i say that One Piece being a big pile of gold would be the biggest let down in the history of manga.

Are you fucking kidding me? Tsunami? None of us knows the full extent of Haki, but at this point it seems to be pretty god damn powerful in ways that we have yet to see, and i am sure that it can be used for many other purposes that just fighting. Just look at this video at 8:33 Furthermore we have yet to see the full extent of Kuzans ice powers aswell, but we do know that he can turn a pretty fucking huge area of the sea into ice. He dealt with the huge waves at Marineford and i see no reason why he should not be able to prevent a tsunami if that was the case, even though i find anything you say pretty ridiculous.

And for gods sake, there is used to to describe a place and their is used to descibe someones possessions. | ||

Personally I loved it, though it definitely could have been done better. I hope next time Oda puts some more importance on the results of some of the fights, and doesn't have any glaring plotholes (Mr.3...). It was pretty clear that Oda was treading on a new, unfamiliar ground. Other Shounen mangas that have done a war since then in a bad way: Bleach (remember the 'war'? what a disaster) Naruto Mangas that are ROCKING the War concept: Toriko | ||

it's less timeconsuming and you aren't 1 year behind on discussions, and even as a diehard one piece fan I feel like anime often doesn't do manga justice. the panels for one piece are so amazing that it actually takes several minutes sometimes to actually realize all the details which is hard if watching it animated imo. | ||

Now I am hooked and I am wondering if I should also being reading the Manga or if they are very similar and I should just do one or the other. My opinion : Ive read the manga first, and after doing that I absolutely couldnt stand watching the anime. Even though its my favourite manga, I think its one of the lesser animes, due to several elements im not going to go into right now. I like the naruto anime a lot more, and thats saying alot. A while back people were talking about the latest OP film, and I checked it out : I hated it. Just some cliche shit thrown together. Characters sucked balls, fights sucked, and the dialogue... o boy. Perhaps this is partly due to me having too high expectations, but there are way better anime series / movies out there. From what ive gathered, people seem to like the OP anime, and it's their good right. But if you are like me, you will enjoy the manga 10 times better, and you'll laugh at yourself for how you could ever put up with such a horrid anime version of such an amazing manga. I would suggest reading the manga first is what im trying to say. | ||

You are free to think what you want, but it was hinted pretty heavily that shit is gonna go down on Fishman Island, both by the fact that Sharly has been very accurate in her previous predictions, and by she acted when it turned out that it did not happen at Strawhats first visit to Fishman island. im sure something will happen on Fishman island, and its extremely likely that something will be big enough to destroy fishman island (potentially) im equally sure Luffy will not be responsible Someone saying that Luffy wouldn't have personal motivation for screwing over the tenryuubito (by smashing redline and by that, Mariejoa) really needs to not talk... destroying the red line doesnt screw over the Tenryuubito, by the time things ahve been set in mostion to destroy the red line the Tenryuubito would ahve been overthrown anyway | ||

I don't think anyone else is in a position to say "This WILL happen" or This CAN'T HAPPEN" etc., etc. | ||

The only time I ever thought the anime was better than the manga was with FLCL because the anime medium did SO much more and offered so much more possibility in presentation for what it was trying to do than the manga. But in almost every other instance I found manga to be much more fulfilling than their anime counterparts. | ||
