| Dayum. Impressive. |
| [fancy signature here] |
| It's expected considering the current arcs, and prelude story of Strong World |
 |
| That's a lot of paper. |
Earth gets angry after a kick in the face. |
| Hell yeah! One piece beat Harry Potter! Now this needs to happen in Canada :P |

| The one thing that always amazes me about One Piece is that despite how long its been running, the plot is still so interesting and keeps people hooked that the series constantly keeps breaking records such as these. |
| FUCK YEAH WELCOME TO OUR WOLD HARRY POTTER AND U DIDN'T EVEN SEE ANYTHING YET CAUSE WE R JUST GETTING STARTED . ALL HAILL ONE PIECE |
| Wow, that's pretty impressive. |

| It's nothing to be surprised. This is One Piece we are talking about :D |
| This is a signature. |
| Expected from One Piece considering the current arc. All the same it's great to see this happening to One Piece! :D |

| Why did Order of the Phoenix out-print Deathly Hollows? That is the real question here. |
| My anime list |
| hahahaha. fucking awesome. :) |
 |
| Suck it Potter! :D |
 |
| Great stuff! Can't be blamed since the current events form the precursor to how One Piece will continue and eventually end! |

Damn her for killing off my favourite character. *shakes fist* But yay, go One Piece. Speaking of which, I should really catch up to the manga. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |

This. :D If only One Piece wasn't butchered by 4kids, it could have been popular in America as well... ugh, just thinking about it makes me sad. :( |

vindemon64 said: The one thing that always amazes me about One Piece is that despite how long its been running, the plot is still so interesting and keeps people hooked that the series constantly keeps breaking records such as these. Yeah! I agree. There's always something new and exciting and Oda plans his manga well. There are people who are too lazy to read OP cause they think it's too much to catch up with. Ah well... they're missing out on a lot! |

Damn 4kids -__- |

Jure said: Sigh... I seriously can't see what is so good about One Piece. I dropped the manga two years ago but decided to catch up few months ago just because everyone was saying how awesome were latest chapters. What a waste of time. It seems you just can't enjoy a masterpiece... |
| Go One Piece. This just proves it doesn't matter how long a story is as long as it's good it will sell massively. |
| The only this is selling more than usual is because someone finally biting the dust and its not a flashback, and its awesome. |

loli_slayer said: is because someone finally biting the dust and its not a flashback, and its awesome. nah) its because of the Whitebeard) anyway next volumes will make another records for sure.. especially the last chapters... |

Jure said: slippy said: Nope, that is certainly not the case. I just can't really see what exactly is so good about One Piece. I understand that long-running shounens usually have a horde of fans, but 3 million copies in first printing... that's just too much.Jure said: Sigh...

| ^ok stop the offtop seriously o_O we got that. |
smokes said: There isn't even 300 million people in Japan (the population is around 125 million). It's unheard of for a first printing to be near 3 million, which is why this is a big deal.3 million or 300 million ? )) edit please) |

| Congrats One Piece!!! |

Jure said: Zuminori said: I already said I dropped it a while ago but decided to catch up because everyone was saying that latest chapters are epic. I will drop the manga again when current arc ends (which will be soon I guess).@Jure: You rate it with a 3 but still read more than 500+ chapters... Found the mistake? it seems you like manga's that are more seinen or involve more complicated plots... Not into comedy? or comedy adventure maybe... and btw- people have told me to read bleach- i tried- and i only was able to read 250 chapters. I couldnt go even one chapter further- no matter how much people prodded me. I rated it a 7 at the end, because i was able to read that much- and it wasnt bad- i just didnt like it. That doesnt mean it was bad- just that it wasnt my cup of tea. If you were able to read over 500 chapters (with or without prodding and people telling you to read it), then i think it deserves more then a 3. If you were able to catch up then it deserves at least a 5. Anything below a 5 is something that you couldnt click next chapter no matter how much people told you too. anyway- OP is awesome and i really do hope it goes on forever (or well- i wanna see the ending before i die but im 15 so i got plenty of time - and it better end before i die but not for a hellova long time :P) Even if the story can get a little repetitive, as the characters grow, the entire arc changes to fit the new and evolved characters. It makes it interesting nonetheless :D |
