| ^Cuz the rest of us actually have solid proof for our crap? ..Dude XD.. My only assumption was this: "vessel" ---container of 2dfs. And for some reason the fact that Luffy has King's Dis seems to be related. Soo..since the Ds seem to have an affinity towards cultivating Haosh-Haki(can't spell it properly), and BlackBeards is in fact a D I assumed(ONLY ASSUMED) that the connection between "vessel"-and -multi-DF container might be possible. Other than that I got nothing. Also, vindemon said that SAD can be recreated at which point I thought that Ancient weapons can also be recreated , in other words I consider it highly possible that SAD is in fact Uranus. |

That is very true,coming up with random theories is half the fun :D I think it is more likely that uranus is hidden somewhere or is a living thing, then again shirahoshi is living and pluton is hidden so he has already used those so it is possible it could be something completely different. Also about it being able to take down a yonkou makes it sound that more convincing it is an ancient weapon :P im not sure how he would have researched it though, it was 800 years ago? i think anyway. if it is a double devil fruit thing it would be awesome, doflamingo could use it himself and become stupidly powerful, he says luffy would be a good vessel and which i would say means he must have some means to control it/luffy (besides his DF power, he has to sleep haha) it could be some form of gas/pill or something that has its own will and can control a person and perhaps caesar has made it so that it will listen to doflamingo after it takes over a body. |

About Uranus. I understand that you consider it hidden but remember this: Pluton, besides the original, had blueprints through which one was able to reconstruct a 2nd pluton. So if SAD is indeed Uranus I would consider it possible for Ceasar to be in possession of the recipe/blueprints/manual in general that reconstructs Uranus. Also, the fact that I said two different theories(one is SAD=Uranus and the other being SAD=multi-DF) doesn't mean I considered them to be different XD. At the back of my head there is a 0.0000001% that they Uranus might be an ancient weapon affiliated with DFs(considering Blackbeard's current power level it seems to me that the ability to contain 2 dfs IS pretty world endagering) |

Whoah, whoah, one thing to be corrected. Jimbei said that the blackbeard pirates are in poer-hunting targeting the strongest DF users and have the means to steal their powers(word by word). I don't think we are to assume(and we should not) that Blackbeard will gain a 3rd and 4th, I think he just meant that Blackbeard can take out a power and actually give it to someone from his crew. In other words all of them will end up with one DF while BB will remain with 2(and not more). Lol if he were to gain more it would be a disaster. |

And it finally seems to start happening. FACT: everyone who started reading OP after 2010 knew Ace was gonna die. Same with Jiraiya. This shit is everywhere. But still, Ace's death is to be expected as the half-way point build-up. And my reaction to when peoplle die in OP is more of a "finally!" than wow that was surprising. But most of the time nobody dies, that's how I see it, so when someone is in danger...I don't really care..that's what Oda's doing wrong...death is cheap and everyone lives in the end so why should I go "oooooh shit he's gonna die!" Which results in most stuff being boring or dull I already why I said why I don't like the arc much it in the other punk hazard thread. Last week: Law has a plan This week: Law still has a plan, but let's cut to some Brook jokes and Nami I liked the scene w/ Doflamingo but it dragged on... Dragon part = well I said it.. |
| End Zionazism |
| Loved it! They fight the dragon but is it Momonosuke? Doflamingo's crew is all girls O_O, I like the bazooka girl that was transforming her arms, if she hates Doflamingo I'm hoping Luffy saves her later and gets her to join. Still didn't find out what law's plan is though! |

She is also the one called baby 5, one of the 2 that Joker will send over. joker must be extorting her or completely controling her despite her will or sth. I smell sanji vs baby 5 |
| "But don't cry my friends, we are all the same.Every one of us is a human with "H" capital... and now we are two and one of us has to be shit." -Mr.Freeman |
| I still think the SAD is some kind of chemical imbued into candies and it will serve the purpose of defeating Big Mom. Being it Uranus is kinda lame since it's only the beginning of the new world and we had a new ancient weapon revelation in the arc just before punk hazard. Law's facial expressions <3 can't wait for his next battle/scheme revelation And the others: well SH aren't just Luffy, Zoro and Sanji, there has to be a Nami/Brook/others once in a while ^^ and I already see Zoro mastering fox-fire techniques and visiting Wano country. Sanji had an impact on his leg and that did quite dmg, so I assumed wrong last week O.O well, that makes it interesting, but I'm also kinda dissapointed with that handicap, Sanji may yet again not put up a full scale fight (Although, as Kanic said vs Baby 5 is pretty likely ^^ but I think robin would take care of her or* Tashigi, and Buffalo would run against Franky/Zoro [I want zoro to kick someones ass so badly]) It's pretty obvious now that it will come to a Vergo vs. Smoker fight soon enough, and the next time we'll definitely see Luffy (since there was no update of him this chapter) That's all. Sucks to not have a chapter next week. |

You said that you know "everything is going to be alright." You can't just assume that. And my example with Ace's death was to prove that exact point. Yes, after 2010, everyone knew Ace of dead because the chapter was released in early 2010 and the internet is never a spoiler-free place. But for all the people who had been reading One Piece week by week before then....it was a *huge* topic of discussion. Ace's death was not expected. Yes, there were people predicting that Ace would die, but it was roughly 50/50 in each group. No one in the story had ever died before. That's why there was a strong contingent of people who were convinced Ace would not die because of that. That "everything will work out in the end." And what does Oda do? He goes against everything he has done in the previous 550+ chapters and kills of one of the most iconic characters in the story. People in the fanbase were shocked and it was a huge point of discussion. Yes, in real life in war, death is real and a regular occurrence. But this is a fictional story. You can't apply real world logic. It just doesn't work that way. You have to think with the logic in the realm of the created world. This is Oda's creation and he dictates how he treats it. Honestly, I would also like to see more deaths to prominent characters, but that's not how Oda treats death. He doesn't treat it lightly. Because he didn't kill off anyone before, the fact that Ace died only amplified the actual event because it was the first death in the story...and a big one at that. Anyway, it may very well be that Momonosuke will be alright in the end. After all, this is a shounen story and it follows those common shounen archetypes where the good guys will always win. But that's not why you're reading this story now, is it? Otherwise, you already know the ending. Everything is going to be alright. |

Whitebeard also dies, aswell as Sabo. A lot of unimportant characters also die (except in Skypiea, that survival course was just lame...I think that's the only arc where it was annoying to me that everybody survived). Everyone has a person dear to them that died (a whole Island was massacred[Ohara]) and all deaths are of great significance to the story. but yeah, the point isn't in dying and 99.99% important people survive. If you want to watch main characters die go read Game of thrones or something. Everything isn't all right in the end. If it were, these characters wouldn't end up being pirates, they would happily live their quiet lives with their families on their islands. |

| ^What meaning would be to Momonosuke dying anyway? "everything would be alright"? Well if he died would "everything be NOT alright"? It would only serve for character development for his father(who?). The fact that momonosuke is that dragon is obviously something important and it doesn't even have to do with the concept of death and loss. In fact now that I remembered it, that kid in the last panel said that Monosuke went into that room you're not supposed to go...therefore my point. |

I wasn't actually spoiled on aces death and i started in 2012, i was surprised to say the elast, cried too LOL i bigger impact was definitely made because of the no-one dies thing, i was expecting it "to all be alright" but it wasn't :) and what, do people want sanji to die? or another crew member? because that would spoil the show, im fine with barely any deaths. |
| Does anyone else need a doctor to confirm that someone without a head is dead? |
| Guys, make your quotes easier to read by using spoiler tags, please. |
| From what i see, it looks like Oda is shaping up a sh's vs dofla arc which i think would be pretty amazing. Not only does it tell the op world that the sh's are back but we could also see a few bounty rises if the sh's do win, which would help set up the big mam arc. |

People in the fanbase were shocked and it was a huge point of discussion. Yes I can see how other people would feel it was shocking for the time Ace was in the series to die and die without even having that slow-mo death most important characters get , but to me it was expected even from Oda, as the mid point that will set up the second half of the story. It's a plus that he killed 2 people, but in every arc it was always feeling dull because people don't die or die then turn out to be alive somehow and the suspense/excitement is ruined always. The only thing to enjoy in the fight then would be...the fight itself, and most of the time it's not good Anyway, it may very well be that Momonosuke will be alright in the end. After all, this is a shounen story and it follows those common shounen archetypes where the good guys will always win. But that's not why you're reading this story now, is it? Otherwise, you already know the ending. Everything is going to be alright. It's not like i'm a death enthusiast who wants everyone to die like Elfen Lied or something like that...too many deaths (and pointless too) ruin a series just as much as having no/few deaths But it needs to be just a bit realistic/mature and stop with the childish storytelling (OK here i may not only be talking about the death-good/bad sides), since WE are in the new world which is supposed to be a different place. Besides most fans grew up with the series so most people are now old enough. A story needs to grow with the audience. |

Oda put too much attention in the Samurai-kid thing.. they must be important in this arc.. |
| The mystery behind law, I love it! Oda never seems to disappoint, and with the added flamingo scene, and the talk about "vessel", this is leading up to one hell of a story. The mystery behind flamingo has reached a new pinnacle. |

| Why ruin a sad story? I really liked how the post-war arc played out, the whole story behind Sabo was one of the best moments and now they'll just ruin it.

If you feel every arc is dull because no one is dying and find all of the fights boring, then I question why are you even reading this manga. Actually, to paint broader strokes, from the way you explain your viewpoint, it seems like you just don't enjoy the shounen genre in general. Shounen genre is all about the battles and the good guys overcoming the bad guys. They usually contain your typical hero stories that all young children love imagining at that age. There are many things that I think makes One Piece stand out from the rest, which is why I prefer it over other shounen titles. The creativity, the world, the characters, the humor, and the story. Since the beginning, Oda has been dropping hints of conspiracies, a world full of mystery and other unique plot lines. If you don't enjoy those, then you're probably not going to enjoy One Piece. And that's fine...since everyone has different tastes. You mention that One Piece needs to be more "mature/realistic" and stop with the "childish stuff." What's wrong with childish stuff? What's wrong with friendship, humor, dreams, etc? A story doesn't always have to have adult themes such as murder, sex, blood, etc., for it to be enjoyable. Yes, sometimes those themes do make a story really interesting (i.e, Sanctuary) but by no means does it have to be a necessity. Again, this is a shounen genre manga. If you want more mature stuff, you should go read the seinen genre, which has more death and more mature/adult themes that you seem to be looking. One Piece is published in Shounen Jump, a magazine that is targeted to young to mid-teen boys. Just because it debuted 10+ years ago and its original target audience has grown up does not mean Oda needs to change the manga to only cater to that original audience. Many 8-17 year old children read Jump even today and love One Piece. The fact that One Piece regularly sells over 2 million copies of every volume at each release suggests that people of all ages - young kids to even adults - enjoy the story. |

| The Mangastream scanlations doesn't mention anything about Luffy being a vessel. So I guess we don't know if DonFlamingo said Luffy being a bigger threat than Law or him being a better a vessel than Law. I am kind of intrigued about the past Law and Don Flamingo had though |

Thugnificent- said: The Sabo shit hasn't been confirmed, so we really don't know whether he is dead or alive But most people [me included] likes to think that he is still alive . lol, just by rereading/rewatching that chapter/episode, Sabo is Obviously alive (Dragon said smth like ''what terrible injuries, take him'' i don't remember.. but he's definitely alive since he also hated the nobles just like Dragon, so they have smth in common.. can't wait to see what Dragon is planning. |
| Doflamingo vs Law? Oh, yeah, I want it. |
 |
| Mikasa...you are...truly a great piece of work, great acting. I applaud you sir and will now rank you next to the trolling skills of Mitt Romney. For Mi(tt Romney)kasa: Anyway, this chapter was amazing. Could it be that the maid, Baby 5, flipped out when she heard that Vergo should finish off Law? DoFlamingo did watch over him since he was small and with the little brother thing and everyone calling DoFlamingo young master... maybe she helped raise Law cause he somehow grew up in DoFl´s mansion? That´s why she cried and pointed a gun at him? About the dragon being Monosuke...and Kinemon saying something about revenge...maybe he doesn´t know Monosuke is a dragon or has a dragon DF which went berserk? Maybe his son did something terrible in dragonform and then dissapeared and Kinemon thought that a dragon did all that and kidnapped his son? There were other dragons on the island so he might´ve thought that that´s how they kidnapped the children... SAD...hmmm...no idea what that is, but Law definietly seems to have something nasty in store with it. And Doflamingo implied that if Cesear produces more of it he´d be the one in trouble. Wonder what he means by that. Sucks that there is no chapter, I hope Oda-sensei makes it up for an epic chapter after the break. Sadly I doubt it, but at least some questions will be answered I hope. |

I applaud you sir and will now rank you next to the trolling skills of Mitt Romney. 1) Who's mitt romney 2) Hmmm I said twice: I don't want it to be a gay blood fest either. It sucks. Look at Devil May Cry it's shit and immature BECAUSE of the deaths...there is a middle ground y'know 3) Danke Schoen! I always wondered if I were a great actor (*.*) |

Genre, category, grouping...you can call it whatever. I think you're just arguing semantics about what the label "shounen" really is called. Regardless of what the proper description of the word belongs to, it still describes a type of story that is told in Japanese culture. And as such, One Piece is categorized/grouped/whatever with shounen. So yes, whether its the battle parts of a manga or the story-telling parts, it all still falls under the same description. At least that's how I view it. Yes, battles in a shounen manga are scripted in such a fashion where friendship, dreams and/or willpower will frequently overcome critical-death status and essentially, will the hero to victory. But let's be honest. Everyone who is familiar with Japanese manga knows that when it comes to shounen. You know that will exist going into the story. I agree, friendship, dreams and the like aren't childish. These are just words that I've seen other people on this site and over the internet use when they talk about "childish stuff." I'm glad there are still parts that you enjoy of the story. The parts that you seem to be looking forward to are some of the parts that I'm most intrigued about, especially the World Government's relationship with the Void Century. I guess when you simply mentioned how this chapter was boring, I just don't see how that can be (especially with the stuff that you said you enjoy about this manga) when the involvement of DoFlamingo and his crew (as it would seem) and Law's plan for the Yonkou starting to come to fruition. That is story progression. You can't just skip all of this and go straight to whatever you're interested in. We need to find out how we got to point B from point A. Anyway, it seems like we're starting to go around in circles a bit here, so I don't really have anything new to add. I think we'll just have to agree to disagree on some of the points we don't share the same views on. Especially on the creativity of the manga. :) |

It's weird that I would miss something like that lol If you don't see their body you can definetley believe they're still alive. OP has a bit of a history on that and it's one of my main problems with the series. From the ones i can remember especially Pagaya and Pell are guilty of this. Pell was ridiculous, i saw him and was like "whos that, wait a sec, are you fucking serious!" usually i would be happy that someone survived but that was plain stupid xD oh well it doesnt effect much anyways :) You say it would be a disappointment if sabo is alive, but if he is alive then hes going to serve a greater purpose and be involved in good things. if he survived, it was for a reason. so him being involved in great things alongside luffy/dragon would cancel the disappointment, not that i would be disappointed anyway i want him and luffy to meet quite badly :) |
