    Speculations The Entire Reason Why 3 Admirals Exist is Because 1 Alone Can't Fight an Emperor

    Mihawk actually stated that the Marines were equal in power to the 7 Warlords, never mind a whole emperor crew

    Questions & Mysteries A random dude simply figured out what is the one piece

    He says his Navy job calls it this, but how does this translate to Japanese navy or ships? I know Oda is in love with western comics/shows but that doesn't mean he would know some obscure English terminology at the beginning of his career. Also, I just had a quick browse for Navy/Nautical terms...

    Character Discussion Jinbei is the best straw hat

    The worst Straw Hat by a million miles. He is a new world veteran, he has no business on a fresh crew. It's like kids playing basketball with a retired pro. His position is also pointless, the Straw Hats have been able to navigate the worst sea conditions without him already. The only thing...

    Controversial Telegram Founder is Captured

    I don't like it. I understand the problems that it creates in regards to organised criminal activity, but to me that's an acceptable trade off for having the freedom to communicate in private. I think my generation was pretty much the first to start living online. It used to be the only place...

    Questions & Mysteries Is "Sanji will beat Admiral Agenda" is over?

    No why would it? After that shameful performance by Kizaru, it's become more likely than ever before. Arc introduced at least 5 people stronger than the admirals, plus Im and Garland. Not to mention Sanji has at least 2 arcs to get stronger (which he usually does). There are also at least 2...

    General & Others Warlords and Admirals are easily the two best groups in One Piece

    Don't insult the Warlords. Admirals do not even belong in the same breath as them. The Warlords have been and will continue to be the absolute best written One Piece characters. They hold more significance in the story than the vast majority of the Straw Hat crew. If it weren't for the...

    General & Others Has there been an arc that you liked at first. But over time you started to dislike?

    Most of post-skip to be fair. A particular offender for me though was Dressrosa. That arc introduced several of my favourite characters in the manga, and even though it was an Alabasta rehash, it was still fine by me because it's a classic story. But by the end I was practically begging for it...

    Do you finish games or swap between them when you feel like it?

    I have what the armchair psychologists call 'new toy syndrome', if I pick up another game whilst I'm already playing one I end up losing interest in it and by the time I come back to it it's been too long and I'll have to start from the beginning.

    Current Events Egghead's Timeline

    Useful information actually. I'm just glad it's over; the arc itself wasn't bad but it was really dragging towards the end and I was losing interest. I feel like I've been reading the exact same chapter for 2 months now.

    Controversial Delete this thread

    I think I remember Zoro saying something about this once ''even if God exists, I still would not kneel before him'' I take a pretty similar stance to this when it comes to religion. The existence of a God is way less interesting to me than the hypothetical of if he absolutely did exist. The...

    Controversial The hijacking of western entertainment made for men

    I always check the dates now whenever I come across a new series I want to watch. If it's made after 2016, I go in very sceptical and that's if I even give it a chance at all. Sometimes I'll even look up the director to see what his track record is with political pandering. Even if I agree with...

    Questions & Mysteries Did Luffy(yonko) defeat Kizaru (admiral convoy) ?(according to one piece citizens)

    From their perspective they saw all 5 Gorosei (or at least knew they were there), an admiral, a fleet and CP0 all try to stop the broadcast and to take down Luffy and his crew. They failed in almost everything aside from killing Vegapunk, Kizaru got slapped about TWICE, and the Gorosei mostly...

    Controversial General Political Discussion

    Well I've been trying to spread it around a bit because I think this situation is one that people could actually have a nuanced discussion about and come together for a solution. Usually with the trans debate everything is pretty cut and dry, it comes down to people simply having a different...

    Controversial General Political Discussion

    I'm assuming that the trans debate here has come up because of that Olympic boxer? I don't know whether she should be allowed to compete but I do know this isn't a case of transgenderism, it's actually illegal in her country to be as such. She was born with female genitalia, but has XY...

    Controversial Immigrants/Diaspora General Discussion Thread

    My big problem with the UK immigration riots recently is that working class communities do more damage to themselves than any amount of immigration could do to them. I used to live in a very poor white working class area, let me tell you a little bit about their 'culture' that they're trying to...

    What Are You Currently Playing?

    So I finally got round to playing Ghost of Tsushima Generally speaking the game was pretty good 7/10 Graphics were consistently amazing, art style was excellent, the fluidity in combat was nice, the characters and story were top tier. There was a very well written character transformation that...

    Controversial General Political Discussion

    The last time I had a response like this was from a bot, I wasn't even disagreeing with you, and you still started sounding off about being brainwashed. You responded to me, I didn't miss your point you missed mine.

    Controversial General Political Discussion

    Yes that's a decent point to why you don't OWE them money, but it's also sort of a deflection on the point of shame and responsibility and prioritising Citizens over immigrants. What do you think about that part?

    Controversial General Political Discussion

    Just a political/philosophical musing I had yesterday I wonder if I could get people's opinions on it, because something feels off about the logic. Whenever the subject of immigration gets brought up, people say things like 'this is our country not yours', 'respect the people and the culture...

    Future Events Between Kizaru and Fujitora, who do you want Zoro to fight?

    Not necessarily true, Zoro is the next sword god like Ryuma, WSS is a stepping stone.
