Anime and Manga v37

New Berserk chapter, and it even has the release date for the next chapter at the end. Hurray! Interesting that they finally know that Gatts is, well, Gatts.


The only person who has really been pushed in the New World has been Luffy. That is part of my problem with the New World so far. Zoro has walked through every opponent he has faced since the time skip. Sanji didn't really get to do much during Dressrosa and briefly tussled with Vergo during Punk Hazard. The other misfits might have been pushed to their limits but I don't recall that happening. Hopefully that will change soon.

I'd say that Usopp has had some good moments particularly his leading of the Dwarves and his impossible snipe shot showing possible haki use. But yeah, I want to see what everyone else is capable of.

Well I'd say it is haki of observation for sure, with that Nami becomes officially the weakest strawhat, but as navigator and weather skills she has uses. But combat wise definitely weakest for now. Oda has stated he wanted to keep Usopp as weakest but he needs to buff Nami more to make that true again imo.

What you say may be true, but I'd rather be forced to read current Bleach on a continuous loop for eternity than pay attention to anything Usopp does.

Dude that's... wow... I'd kill myself before the loop starts over again...
 
just dig your eyes out then Kubo reads it to you in broken English from mangastream's translator when they were really terrible.

It might make sense that way.
 
so for ppl who read one piece who your least fav out of luffy crew mine would be Usopp followed by Nami and i dont really like them because they are always complaining when luffy wants to do something crazy like you guys knew what you sign up for joining his crew

Ah so there is a place on Sherdog to talk about anime and manga. Yeah I agree bleach is shit-tier (almost worse than Naruto), Mob Psycho 100, is amazing, im a huge One Piece fan and its about to get seriously awesome. Luffy and Sanji are gunna fuck shit up.

Anybody excited for the OPM dub? Its too bad Mob Psycho 100 wont be getting the same treatment...
 
Kind of off topic, but what do you guys think it is that makes One Piece still awesome after all this time and Naruto/Bleach awful? They have a lot of the same formulas, but OP just does such a better job with world building besides introducing new characters and power gimmicks all the time.
 
OP does not take itself so seriously like the other two.

One Piece doesn't have that you're the chosen one bullshit or as much of it at least. Less asspull power-ups and better writing doesn't hurt either.
 
One piece is kinda lacking these days.

Water 7, Enies Lobby, Alabasta, Thriller Bark, Skypia, Impel Down, and Marinefold arcs have been better than the timeskip arcs.

Punk Hazard and Fishman island were ok but the Dressrosa arc was hard to read.

Still a solid series overall.

I disagree about the awesomeness of OP, but still recognize there's a major difference between the quality of output. I think it all comes down to how well laid out everything is. Oda is obsessively detailed and obviously plans long term. Kishimoto, not nearly as much. Kubo, barely at all.

When I was still reading I fucking HATED Chopper.

I'll sum up One Piece like this:

Out of the major war arcs in each of these series which one was the most entertaining and well written: One Piece's Marineford, Naruto's 4th Shinobi War, or Bleach's current Quincy War arc?

Pretty easy choice for me. I'm bias though. In about a month or two One Piece's manga is going to be a bunch of chaos and awesome.

For some reason i just don't care for Nico Robin. She has a cool background and stuff, but i just care the least about her.

Usopp and it's not even close.
 
Usopp followed by chopper. I'd be cool if it was just Luffy,Zoro,Sanji,Robin tbh.
 
Usopp , never cared for him ever since he joined the crew , would absolutely be alright he if died.
 
Goddamnit, Piano no Mori is such a tease! PLAY ALREADY!!!!!!!!!
