I hope all this anticipation build up doesn't lead to a blow out

I think trying to add in characters like them is over estimating things a bit. Not to say I'm not excited for this movie but I doubt people such as them would be THAT involved in the film. It will be interesting to see how they handle this though and the way I see it, as long as no one's kidnapped (namely nami) We should be in the green for a kick ass movie. Plus they didn' just one off this line "It'll surpass strong world" they're wearing it on their sleeve in their advertisments.

Admirals, shanks or not; whatever they're doing they are HELL BENT on making this work.

I'm excited about this one. :) I'm excited who Z is and what happened between Akainu and Aokiji's battle. :3 Probably this movie is set on Punk Hazard, or.. idk . XD I'm just guessing some stuffs. But anyways whatever the movie is really about, I'll be happy to watch it.

Do you like, hate One Piece then? Because Luffy coming to beat up the villain and save the day is pretty much the highlight of almost every single arc...


The Luffy beating up a bad guy part was not the point.......The reuse of nami's sacrificing herself and luffy saving her like in Arlong was....


Luffy had to save Nami in the Arlong arc and the movie. He also had to save Robin twice (at the Arabasta arc after he defeated Crocodile, and at the Enies Lobby arc) Does that make the Enies Lobby boring? No, it's one of the best arcs there is. Every arc is the same: someone is in trouble, Luffy gets pissed at the bad guy and helps. Why is it bad if he uses the same person?
In the Mermaid Island arc, Arlong came back. Not in person, but his 'legacy' so to speak. That doesn't make it worse or a remake from the Arlong arc.
Just because an idea has been used before, doesn't make it bad or something. Everything has been used before, be it in OP or another series.


Those situations are completely different....Enies lobby didn't merely have him saving Robin. But provided her character with a lot of Character Development. Same with Arlong for Nami. And fishman island having Arlong only serves to tie those arcs together fleshing out the OP world greatly.

Strong World just put Nami in that damsel in distress role but didn't really give any development as a result, since that already happened back in Arlong. And was also much weaker emotionally when Luffy finally does save her.

Was still a good movie, don't get me wrong. But people way overhype it just because it is written by Oda.

I dont know if it was mentioned before... but...

Is that Kaido as the cover?
If the first fight in the new world is the one that is currently happening in the manga... and SPOILER- Law and Luffy are going to team to take care of one of the yonko... then the first battle will prob be vers a yonko... if thats the case... looking at the mark on the pics back- its not shanks jolly roger for his crew, nor teach, nor big mom... the only one left is kaido...
any thoughts?


Who knows, what you've said is really interesting and makes sense, I hope is Kaido. We've yet to see him and he's a Younko so obviously he's strong. I still remember when he fought Shanks before he confronted Blackbeard.

Looking good so far, even if Oda doesn't write it himself it has a chance to be a great movie.
Going to be very tough to surpass strong would though.

December? -.-' Then it still has to go on DVD before we can watch it, which could take a like 5 months or more!

OO another one, but the only way I can see it being the best film is if Oda writes the story again. If not... though the first battle in the new world? Isn't that fishman island?

Oh and your two sources screenshots are for the same screenshot.

looking forward to it. Just hope it doesn't feel like a ripoff of a main series arc like strongworld did.


Strong World wasn't a ripoff... it was canon -.-


Canon and pretty much the same plot as
Canon or not it wasn't very creative.
yes well he was working on his manga story and the movie story at the same time still he made it good
