    General Football thread

    Brokelona about to play in the Europa League again this upcoming spring. Hate to see it ... :suresure:

    General & Others Why Oda has Zero consideration to his adult fandom?

    The problem is that younger guys these days con't start reading OP anymore. Hard reality. Really any poll shows that less than 10% of the current OP readers are under 18! That's when you as author should at least consider changing the targeted age group.

    General & Others Which of these Arcs Has the Best Ending?

    What exactly do you mean by "ending". Do you mean the last 10-15 chapters of the arc or really only the last one or two chapters? If it's the former, then PH wins. It wasn't that dragged out and had some very cool moments at the end (Law vs Vergo, Doflamingo vs Aokiji etc.). If it's only the...

    One Piece Chapter 1057: Final Curtain

    It was great until the Tamatebakko explosion. The last 25 chapters were way too dragged out and full of plot conveniences. Having said that, it was a fun read all in all.

    General & Others Which arc is better: Fishman Island or Wano?

    Fair game, everyone has a different experience reading. Btw you just brought up that "mansion blueprint" thing again: My God, that was just another nonsense plotline in Wano that amounted to absolutely nothing.

    General & Others Which arc is better: Fishman Island or Wano?

    Reread Wano and then try to reread FI. Wano had a lot of storywriting problems, but at least it is a fun read if you switch your brain off. FI is just a snoozefest. It boring beyond belief. Wano wins here per default.

    General & Others Rate the Wano arc

    Already wrote about it in the other thread: "Had some good moments, but also a lot of questionable writing. Act 1 was really good. Good exposition and to the point. Act 2 was too dragged out for the content that was actually in it (way too much Udon that didn't progress the story at all) and...

    General & Others What did you think about the Wano arc?

    Had some good moments, but also a lot of questionable writing. Act 1 was really good. Good exposition and to the point. Act 2 was too dragged out for the content that was actually in it (way too much Udon that didn't progress the story at all) and I really think the Oden flashback should've...

    Character Discussion Law being angry tsundere is so stupid

    I mean you basically summed up his character: Acts all serious and mature on the surface, but shows that he is indeed a troll/goofball in the heart time and time again. This is actually one of the things that has been consistent since he got a major role in PH (not like many other things...

    One Piece Chapter 1057: Final Curtain

    It's not about defending Hiyori, it's just about applying common sense and not hyperventilating over someone still (and understandably) being emotional/upset in a fictional story. I've heavily criticized the writing this arc for 2 years now, but this (supposed) Hiyori line is actually a...

    One Piece Chapter 1057: Final Curtain

    What I don't get: There was so much questionable writing this arc, but THIS is the thing that finally gets homers to bitch about the writing? Lmao, it's literally one of the least problematic scenes in terms of storywriting this arc. In fact it was obvious for years that Oda would use the...

    One Piece Chapter 1057: Final Curtain

    It's actually the exact same wording/katakana like Oden's phrase: "Oden isn't Oden if it wasn't boiled!" Here it's more like: "Kurozumi isn't Kurozumi if it wasn't burned!" Do what you want with that info...

    One Piece Chapter 1057: Final Curtain

    Good, then you know it's bs. Denjiro came in from nowhere and saved Hiyori by killing Orochi in an instant. He then hugged her. Here in this manufactured flashback, Orochi is still alive (albeit burning) when Denjiro and Hiyori are standing there and Hiyori supposedly says the words.

    One Piece Chapter 1057: Final Curtain

    Tbf that's not the case. She merely said that she made up her mind and is going to see Luffy now. That's it. Never said she decided to join and that she was going to him to tell him that.

    One Piece Chapter 1057: Final Curtain

    Fair, but right now it's understandable that they hate the Kurozumi even more after those 20 years. "Everyone loves forgiveness, until they themselves have something to forgive." That line actually applies to a lot of whiners here.

    One Piece Chapter 1057: Final Curtain

    Exactly. It's a flashback where the teacher tells a completely different story than what we as readers saw (what actually happened).

    General & Others Oda is promoting dictatorships

    Dude, a kingdom is not a "dictatorship" per se. Where did you get that nonsense from? As for the inheritance part: Sure, but OP plays in a fictional pirating world. There are kingdoms, there are democracies (Water 7 for example), there are oppressed countries etc.

    One Piece Chapter 1057: Final Curtain

    Btw: F to all the idiots that still didn't understand that this whole "Kurozumi are born to burn!" nonsense is just propaganda speech from that teacher, not from Hiyori. Hiyori never said that, which becomes clear after reading the chapter lmao. It's literally the last scene of Orochi (and we...

    A certain "spoiler provider" is shitting bricks right now, already thinking really hard how he can come up with a new woke agenda.

    Spoiler Togashi is continuing on past the 10 chapters he has written so far

    That's nothing new. Same condition he has had for 10+ years now. I'm just happy 10 new chapters are already in the book and another 10 new chapters are planned.
