Nice to see the fishmen antagonists, but I really want some action. Too much text and not enough Strawhats kicking ass.

It was a slow chapter, but good. Hordy is getting some power up or so it seems (like a transformation).

Hordi is overdosing on steroids and it's probably transforming his body. It'll probably be a Gecko Moria like transformation (Fuck huge and hulk like)

Ye, it seems that he overused that steroids thingy and the side effects caught up to him. He'll prolly transform into something overpowered or something.

I'm stil thinking about that profecy that says that Luffy will destroy the country. I'm guessing that he'll maybe do so to force fishmen to go to surface and thus interacting with humams.

Not a bad chapter but I want to see some action =P

This...
too much new characters and i can't keep up what is going on. the last thing i know was crisis are over the fishman island. i got interested in only last page. what is happening to hordy. i think those pills will give him power to fight equal against luffy. it won't be good fight if luffy win easily because of his new training.

Easily my least favourite One Piece chapter ever; and I LOVE this series.

I could not care less about the Fishmen, to me they are utterly generic and disposable and this chapter made me hate them even more for wasting 19 pages on utter filler bullshit that did not need to happen. I am very very disappointed with this chapter.

Boring chapter. This whole arc is boring and probably the worst OP arc so far. I hope this is a one-time thing, cuz it would be a shame if One Piece went downhill now.

It's pretty disappointing that fishmen are weak and this being the first long arc of the New World saga, hopefully it leads up to something big, The only one of the NFP that i'm interested in the intros was Hyozo.

Yea aside from the drunk octopus swordsman none seemed interesting, and even him only cause im anticipating a Zoro clash later on.

But I do get the intros, id have to assume a classic one on one battle by each Staw Hat hence the profiling, still boring though.

There was a lack on straw hat in this chapter but it was still interesting... we got to see that the princes could really fight and it seems like Hordy will attain a new level ...maybe now he'll be a match for luffy

Hordy received a great wound just from Zoro's one slash, so he really needs to have a power-up to be able to be on par with Luffy...

Too busy chapter...

Does anyone else get the feeling Hordi is going to destroy Fish-Man island? I had a theory that Luffy was going to destroy it so they can travel to a new island up in the surface on the ship seen in the flashback (I think, i'll have to look back).

If Hordi actually dies from a steroid overdose, I might just skip the rest of this arc.

My feeling is that the Fishman arc will work much better as an anime because there are just too many small details that are being thrown at the reader, and those details are swamping the flow of the story. In the anime they can flash the same details in seconds while maintaining the overall momentum...

I hope. On the other hand, they just might swamp viewers with flashbacks... <L>

Actually, what would be much more fun would be for the Blackbeard pirates to show up, mop the floor with the Fishmen renegades, and leave the Strawhats holding the bag for the mess.

WATCH OUT FOR THAT SEA BEAR

in terms of composition, this chapter was a mess, i didn't enjoy this chapter until the last couple of pages, most of this chapter was a bit incoherent and crammed, almost feels like what kishi is doing with naruto right now. but oda can be forgiven, even brilliant storytellers slip up on occassion.

Had some trouble following along this chapter. I'm gonna need to read it over, for sure.

There was some interesting stuff with Hordy at the end, though.

My guess is that Oda has realized that there isn't a lot new that he can do with this arc and he is rushing it a bit in order to get on to the next arc, which probably interests him more.

...I´m gald I´m not the only one who doesn´t like this arc. Seriously, worst arc ever.

The flashback of Fishman Island was nice, seeing Tiger, the fishmen pirates and everything...

But that´s about it. I hope there´ll be some good fights to redeem this.

With the other two of the four emperors, all the Super Novas, Don Flamingo´s group and himself, the newly reformed marines and the still having to appear Vegapunk, the rebellion army, possible meetings with all the people Luffy made a promise to meet in the grand line/new world, maybe Sabo, Shanks and his crew, Blackbeard pirates, etc...

There are so many possible awesome meetings and encounters, that this arc just falls flat short in comparison.

this arc is still at the middle.. its like when Strawhats fought their first time with the CP9 guys.. the enemies are introduced and there are some flashbacks here and there..

and then comes the epic fights and powerups and shit..
i just want to see that faster :D

They are definitely not on the level of the CP9 guys.

Enjoyable chapter as a whole (at least Oda seems to give us everything he got each weak). Bleach had three pages of people walking with no text.

The prophecy that Luffy would tear apart the island I think was an indirect thing. Like, for instance it could be like. His crew's presence on the island set Hordy off and thus he's the one tearing apart the island, BECAUSE of Luffy's crew.

Confusing chapter but since it introduces us the first victims-errr, opponents of the Strawhats after-the-time-skip, I won't say anything against it.

Yeah this arc has that Skypiea/Thriller Bark feel about it. I can't help but think when I read it that this particular arc will be so much better in the anime.

I think Oda is gearing this arc for some serious action though, my theory is he going to use it to 'demo' the strawhats new abilities. I mean when you look at the number of antagonists the chapter introduced there will be plenty of fighting in the very near future.

I hope this is Hordi powering up...because really at the minute hes not in the same league as other One Piece villains.

This chapter is confusing! I can't discern much what they're doing, I guess that's the disadvantage of Manga. You may be updated but every now and then, you can't fathom what's going on especially when a great action/battle commenced.
