Anime and Manga v37

I VERY MUCH want to see Sanji be the one to take down his siblings(except for Reiju whom I think will either fight Nami or have a Heel-Face Turn causing her to fight the brothers and possibly lose do to 3 vs 1) and eventually be the one to overthrow his dad.

Ha! Poor Nami doesn't deserve that kind of punishment. Reiju is portrayed as equal or stronger than Ichiji.

Man Judge freaking sucks. I hope Sanji gives him a good Concassé to the face.
 
I wonder if some more allies for three Straw Hats present themselves in this arc, I expect Jinbe to finally join the crew, also since I don't believe the Revolutionary army got taken down by Black Beard I would not be shocked if some of them show up in this Arc.
 
Oh yea I totally forgot about BB attacking the Revolutionary army, Ace's fruit (Ace's death and WB's still tilts me :( ) seems to be a very big goal for him..can't blame him. I notice he's not going after any admirals or former admirals...yet!

Curious to if Dragon and BB clashed or if it was a stalemate and the base was just destroyed...I'm excited to see where everything is going.
 
@Takun

Not to mention they clashed with Cipher Pol.

If Lucci was present during the attack it would have been cool.
 
Oh yea...so much shit happens in just one or two panels in OP hard to remember everything but totally forgot Lucci was part of CP again. I wonder how a fight between him and Luffy would go now, though Luffy is the MC so his growth rate is basically x3 but still would be great to see them clash again...would be cool to see a lot of the pre-new world people show up in a bigger way then just the lil first page stories seems that what we might be getting with Crocdile who is probably my favorite villain of the series so far..Enel was awesome as well, his design his character were all great and if he hadn't run into Luffy and been a cocky to all hell, dude was/is strong as hell.
 
How has OP been lately? I tuned out early in Dressrosa because I found myself skipping through half an episode not caring about the side stories and figured i'd build up a backlog.

I know Luffy and Doflamingo fight, afterwards is it still running on a high?
 
I'd say it's had it's "up" moments but a good bit of it after the Don/Luffy fight has been a slow burn, not in a negative sense or anything though.
 
Tower of God this week was pretty good. Some fantastic artwork from SIU.
 
I just watched master Keaton--an anime by the same person who created Monster and 20th century boys-- I fucking loved it. If you enjoyed all the little side characters and side stories in Monster, then you'd definitely enjoy Master keaton. The author is really amazing at implementing economical, historical, and sociological themes in his work. It wasnt as emotionally heavy as monster, and it was more episodic in structure, but it was still a very smart and enjoyable series.

I wouldn't watch the anime for a while if that's your preferred medium. They drag shit out to the max. I think they had Bellamy bouncing around for about 2 months.

Disagree about Nami's chances here and yes, Judge is an awful horrible person.

I saw Lucci as well and I'm curious what role he'll play now. Like it really does seem he's back in with the WG, but it honestly wouldn't surprise me if he's angling his own thing and playing the WG. As for the BB vs Revolutionaries clash, no fucking way the fell. Likely got ousted sure, but not straight up taken down by BB.

Want to watch that at some point. I think Satoshi Kon(Paranoia Agent, Tokyo Godfathers, Paprika) worked on the series as well. Also, I found another good slice of life manga.

It's about Christmas Cakes enjoying good food and drink. Author really has shown his work on this stuff.
 
I tried to read Barakamon. Is it just going to be about the main character trying to get peace and quiet to do his calligraphy but always ending up getting bothered by that little girl?
 
New One Piece.

Lol at Cracker. Fight finish was underwhelming.

It took Luffy+Nami+plus forest freaks to take him out. Bad style match up for him too.

In terms of commanders he feels below the likes of Marco and Jozu.

New Toriko...

Acacia and Midora are wrecking the Earth into living Death. Toriko steps in and is about to throw down with Acacia. Ichiryu finds some weird formation of nitro in the soul world.
 
I have to say, that wasn't how I envisioned Cracker losing.

Exactly. It was comical. Not saying Cracker didn't give them a hard time (11hours worth). Was expecting Cracker to stalemate or make Luffy and company retreat at least.

But I guess Luffy is being portrayed as being a threat to the Yonko.

yes and no. He learns alot through the interactions with the townsfolk and the kids and his calligraphy evolves.

I expected Luffy to win, but even THIS was unexpected. It still really doesn't portray Luffy as a threat to the Yonko though since while strong, I sincerely doubt Cracker was even close to as strong as Big Mom would be. I really like Cracker's design ESPECIALLY his troll-face lookand hope to maybe see him again.
 
so... fall season started. where the good shows at?

<{vega}>
