Chapter 1194 Spoilers
>>291122794You know it's a Zoro chapter when nothing fucking happens.
He already learned to cut harder in Arabasta
>>291122903Yeah but now he learns to even cut more harder
vincent chansard "sakuga" filler bait chapter
>Mihawk (supposedly): "CoC will make you so much, stronger use it!!!">Zoro: *doesn't use it, or even try to use it until now.*jfc this manga.
AT BEING SHIT
extreme Haki fatigue
Ulti has conquerors btw
>>291122794Remember when we used to get 3 chapters per month?
>>291122794Hhahhaahha wtf? Zoro in the present: I still have my coc under control.Out of nowhere, he remembers Mihawk's words which basically just says that CoC is strongZoro: Now I can control my CoC.
>>291123161One Piece is bi weekly now, doomfag.
>>291122794So next chapter is about Sanji awakening CoC and popping Kill helmet again.
This is it boys, Chapter 597 was 597 chapters agoWith this chapter release, the timeskip will officially be the halfway point of the series
>>291123229I highly doubt Oda will reach 33 chapters this year. I think there will be more breaks.
>>291122794I think I genuinely hate Zoro as a character ever since the time-skip.
>>291123247Chapter 1 is basically the length of two chapters. Don't forget chapter 0 too, so not quite there yet.
>>291123251>Zoro's arc in Elbaf is literally re-learning he already figured out in Wano>Sommers STILL isn't dead by the end of it as Zoro finally crawls his way back up to King level Just fucking end it already
>>291123285>2-3 more chapters Damn, Guess I'll post it again in 7 weeks
Y'know it's amazing how giving Sommers and Killingham power boosts via the Omens and the weapons Imu gave them added nothing to the arc at all and it could've gone on the same without them.
>>291122794>needed bandana buff to not be retarded
>>291122794These decades of hype really damaged Elbaf in the end. It's sad.
>>291122794YONKO LEVEL ZORO
I am far more interested in Sanji’s CoC breakthrough than Zoro’s. His fight with Sommers isn’t even interesting since he’s just being used as his punching bag with no interesting abilities to make the fight cool. Toei will probably make this more of a visual spectacle than it deserves to be.
Lucky boy it would be an honor
>>291122794>bad pacing>bad art and paneling>zero character progression>15-page chapters>break next weekAre One Piece fans aware they are served slop? It's obvious Oda cares more about new movies and the live action adaptation these days. Is there any hope the ending won't be completely botched?
>>291122794>Another breakIs one piece bi weekly now?
>>291122875What do you mean? He tied his bandana around his head!
>>291122794Bruh, at this rate One Piece might as well be on D.Grey=man's schedule with how little happens chapter to chapter before going on break
>>291122794mihawk is a shit teacher and zoro is a true dumbass.
So Zoro forgot the training he banned on his hands and knees for? Is there anyone out there who still refuses to believe Oda lost his fucking mojo?
>>291123482Yeah but he didn't say "nothing personal kid" followed by making a mouth noise that's commonly written out as "tch"
>>291123523No one has ever said otherwise
>>291123534Wait, are we dead ass?
>>291123466if oda is actually working on the god valley movie i can excuse him all the breaks.
>>291122794So Zoro has been made even more retarded? I legit think Oda has forgotten most of the straw hats are supposed to be characters.
>>291123466>spreading himself thin supervising other projects making his main one sufferOda you clearly don't care anymore about the manga itself. Why not just cut to the chase drop the damn thing and have toei produce a series of movies finishing it.
>>291123586Seems that way.>MIHAWK-SAMA PLEASE TEACH ME NOT TO JOB>Very well, Roronoa. You must always remember...>
>>291123280He unironically needs to smile and laugh more
>>291123586Yep, corpse butt
>>291123640>>291123706Bruh, no shot. the hell does that mean for all those other fights Zoro had before this?
What killed the hype?
>>291123822niggers who ask "what killed the hype"
>>291123822oda is washed
Why the fuck would Mihawk be so blatant? Hackda is ruining him now too
I'm outta here, bro, this shit is ass.
>>291123807It means he could have been sent anywhere during the timeskip and still beat Pica, King, etc, since he re-figured it out on his own, and that groveling before his ultimate rival was character assassination for no reason.
HAKI HAKI HAKI WEE WOO WEE WOO HAKI HAKI AHAHAHAHA
>>291122794One Piece is so fucking trash, bruh.
Zoro finally learning something Luffy learned pre time skip. Neat, maybe before the manga ends Ussop will use haki again
>>291123465Is that Law?
I NEED MY HAOSHOKU TO BE STRONGER TO WIN>STRONG HAKI?!
Every Zoro feat is by extension a Mihawk feat.
I only wish Zoro bled in the fight more - or that there was an actual fight. He's up against a thorn man, so it would've been a great opportunity to have him cut up, soaked in blood and near death, before he reaches clarity about CoC. Raises the tension instead of just "Zoro is too cool to struggle"
ass nigger ass bruh?
>Conqueror's Haki allows users to sense their true strength!So every time Luffy has stood up to somebody who should outclass him and said he knew he'd win it wasn't a cool hero's confidence, it was an internal Scouter telling him his Hakilevel is higher than his opponent.
>>291124030The holy knights suck so while I understand what you mean.... who cares?
>>291122794So Zoro is skipping to "Advanced" CoC before even learning "Offensive" Armanent and "Future Sight" Observation haki? I can't remember him mastering the other two.
>>291123941Haki.>*clap*Transcends.>*clap*All.>*clap*
>>291124067Zoro doesn't even have normal human perception, he's never getting Future Sight.
>>291123473yeah we bi-weekly now doomfaggot. another 15 years and 500 chapters of one piece minimum!
>>291124067He did they back in Wano though
>>291124062Sanjifags that self-insert as Zoro’s opponent
>>291124095Doing something instinctually isn't the same as learning it. Obviously, otherwise this chapter would not exist.
>>291124015Every feat is a feat of Davy D Jones, the source of all Haki, who will explode out of Blackbeard's chest to become the final villain.
>CoC prevents the regenUh why Oda? Why the fuck would a force all humans can have stop the Abyss regen? Also how the hell did Roger not ACK most of the Fraud Knights if he uses CoC casually?
>>291124003Strong nen?
>its a zoro chapter>get the leaks 2 days early
>>291124111Roger was a bad person despite what Oda tries to convince you of with his appearance in curated flashbacks.
>You got to haki more kid just haki harder!Maybe haki was mistake
>>291124146If Luffy trained with Kamogawa the manga would have ended 6 months after the timeskip.
>>291122794>He is ready to finish sommersSo is Sommers gonna go Ultra Sommers and turn brown or what.
So the grimoire Imunko summoned, wtaf was that?
>>291123465That is not bonney bonney gave him an erection. And literally gave him a free motorboat experience on her milkers.
If you don't understand what baron munchausen has to do with haki then you don't understand one piece
>>291124275Luffy is really lucky!
>>291124287Robin Williams pissed on the moon and it's a metaphor for THAT?
>Zoro is now using lightning on his swords like with KingAm I going crazy? Has Zoro not been doing that all along? Including since Egghead?
>>291124682Zoro was sandbagging in Egghead because reasons.
>>291124275>bonney gave him an erection.When did this happen.
>>291124682the whole reason his fight with Lucci dragged out was because he never noticed when he was doing it so never figured out how to do it on command until just this chapter
>>291124275She really is the best compared to boa
>>291124722
G2 Luffy vs Benjamin Sisko?
>>291124111Because he didn't hit their metal hearts.
>Summary is up.>It's so boring that the thread died again.
>>291125261Zoro's fault
>>291122794>another break next weekthis is genuinely fucking abysmal to sit through already and it's getting dragged out and being made worse
>>291125261It's a practice chapter
In a realistic standpoint how many girls like luffy besides nami and boa ??
>>291125302It gets even worse.
>>291124995counting or not counting founder powers?
>>291125353at least after the next break we get three whole chapters in a row until they reveal the once in a century bronze week string of holidays and shonen jump goes on break again
Does anyone even give a shit about Jobro vs a nigga that has been repeatedly humiliated?
>>291122794>another shit chapter>break next week
>>291124111The more we learn about the marks and methods of defeating the Holy Knights the more it contradicts the series' internal logic and character work. Roger once wiped out an entire army because they laughed at his friend but he never managed to kill a CD like Sommers despite Sommers being the most arrogant shitbag alive, and whom made multiple attempts to steal his cabin boy/adopted son.
>>291125302You're the one choosing to just sit through it rather than focusing on more engaging things and just doing a catch up later
Is loki going to be the last straw hat.
>>291124275>>291124818She is fucking 12 you sick bastard nami is the girl
Mihawk confirmed to have Haki. He continues to be stronger than Shanks
>>291125463No. He'll co-rule Elbaph with Hajrudin, and focus on shoring up the island's defences and training the warriors while Hajrudin focuses on visiting other islands to shore up diplomatic bonds to secure allies and supplies for the upcoming war
>>291122970>Rayleigh: "Okay so this is how you use CoC since I sense it on you and it will be a powerful part of your arsenal">Mihawk: "COC IS GUD USE IT, NO I WONT TEACH YOU HOW GO FIGHT SOME MORE MONKEYS">Ivankov: "OH NO, IS THAT COC I SENSE ON YOU...?">Sanji: "REALLY"?>Invankov: "JUST KIDDING, HEE HAW".You know this is how it went down. Everyone is a shit teacher except for Rayleigh apparently. Even Garp was a shit teacher.
SWORD SWORD HARDERSWORD HARDER WILL FIX THIS PROBLEM
>>291125621even Rayleigh just gave Luffy a short powerpoint presentation on Haki then went "ok now beat up every dangerous animal on this island and you'll figure something out in the next couple of years"
>Break Next WeekI miss the old days man...
>>291125592>Shoring up the islands defencesRoads rape dungeon protects the borders just fine, although destroying the satanic summoning circles is probably a good idea
>Sanji unlocking CoC:>There's a wall in my heart I hide behind. I need to confront my fear of becoming just like my father, my fixation on my mother, my obsession with women and sex, my home of phobia, how secretly I came to like frolicking on tranny island in a dress, and resolve all these contradictions to find out who I really am and if I'm really made of the right stuff>Zoro unlocking Coc:>I need to sword harder...hmmm....what did Mihawk say? Oh yeah, 'believe in yourself.'. Oh hey that did it
>>291125350Dont you get it nami is the one thats going to win , trust i want boa to win but nami is obviously the winner, plus oda married nami irl.
>>291125663oda used to be so good about putting the dogfood bowl down on the floor each week
>>291125779>I'm sorry Zeff, but I have to use THAT
>>291125682I'm guessing those big cannon they have pointed at the sea have gone without maintenance for several decades now, plus the warriors need more training
>>291126006
>>291122794>zoro>doesn’t know control over conqueror’s haki>laughed at>called stupid and uselessOh no Zoro friends! Our favorite character…is a joke! It’s over…..
At this point anyone else fine with OP just becoming a monthly manga with the chapters being bigger?
>>291126302The pacing is fundamentally built for the weekly format, you can't have constant cliffhangers that go nowhere if the payoff is to literally turn the page and I forgot what my objection was
>>291126302it wouldn't work the way Oda writes his chapters and would probably end up feeling even more obnoxious to read month-to-month because a month's worth of chapters is like one fucking fight with dragged out pacing
>>291126302how about 12 pages a month? u rike?
>>291126383>>291126420He could always....adjust the pacing?
>>291126006Bonney deserved better
Wife.
>>291126524I agree but I think she was mostly carried by Kuma until she became G5 for climatic moment and kinda just stopped being a character in Elbaph
>>291122794Oda is so clueless he's rehashing something from fucking w*no 4 years ago lol
>>291122794And then Sommers remembers he isn't black
>>291123285By that logic we will have to wait till volume 122, because that's when true equilibrium will be reached.
Believing Oda could do better on a monthly schedule is delusional. If you take out the breaks, the Imu fight has still been paced like shit. He knows what he's going to write and draw in advance, he also knows what his schedule is. The shit pacing is not an accident, it's incompetence.
>>291126528built for plapping
>>291126493he could adjust the pacing now thoughbeit literally nothing would change going to monthly it'd be the same shit
>>291122794Imagine if Oda had skipped all this worthless Loki and Rocks shit and ended Elbaf 40 chapters ago and had us in the actual final battle by now. Bro you are going to die before the manga finishes at this rate.
>>291126851There's be less filler chapters on a reread
How many episodes left in the season of the anime? Presumably stopping before the Rocks flashback?
>>291126881only by number not total pages
>>291125621Garp's teaching method is the quintessential shounen's "punch harder kid"And it works. Somehow.
>>291126901This week's episode will be the last one.
>Domi Reversi countered by "just use more Haki">Elders/HK regen counter by "just use more Haki">Imu taking damage by "just use more Haki"I can see why the hype is fading.
Modern Zoro is quite possibly one of the worst characters in Jump history. No actual arc, no good interactions, every fight is the same shit because Oda can't into sword choreography, and every chapter he gets somehow turns into Mihawk wank.
>>291127259NOOOOO anon you don't get it haki is a manifestation of willpower it's actually really inspiring and makes sense thematially and is NOT BORING!!!!!
>>291127323I stopped caring about any of the strawhats a while back. Now I'm only in it for the loredump and closure.
>>291127323The funny thing about this cope for haki is that most of the straw hats don't have it
>>291127420that tracks cultists wouldn't have willpower
>>291127323When are the characters making constructs of everything with their haki?
>>291122794Sommer's almost over.
>>291122794SommersBros... we might have to say goodbye to /ourguy/ soon...
>>291122794Are Zoro's fights usually this short? I don't remember desu
>>291127259>Editors note: Oda did not find a solution
>>291122794>WORO Chapter WlbafLET'S FUCKING GO!
>>291127338>the wacky mid devil fruit that has to get pushed to the limit to equal overpowered bullshit? Actually Jesus Fruit.
>>291125372I'll be honest, I'm marathoning it right now (S4E1) and what I've randomly seen over the last 30ish years didn't cover that. Are you saying he gets some power up that makes it possible to beat G2 Luffy?
>>291122794Grim.
>>291122794>another Luffy fight where he gets knocked down for four chapters but gets back up again>another Zoro fight where he can't damage his opponent until he realizes he can actually>another flashback revealing a character had an ability the entire time that they just never used before now, for some reason>another hatesink character that gets destroyed for twenty chapters because Shonen Jump needs to sell more volumes
My niece wants to dress up as S-Snake but I think it's a bad idea because she's already too hot and I think some men might get out of control if she cosplays like that.
>>291127801Including you probably.
>>291127801if she's not willing to wear star-pupil contacts then she shouldn't bother anywayno half-assing
>>291127757no, basically he is the emissary to the prophets (not the founders, I mixed them up) and fights Gul Dukat or something and then disappears forever as he goes to be with the prophets for an indeterminate amount of time but is never seen again.a popular fan headcanon is that the reason why he was able to punch Q was because he is the emissary.I haven't watched it in a long time, I should rewatch it and TNG.
>>291127796bold words from the dominican republic
>>291127836Can children wear colored contacts? I think they can't. Would be hotter if she could though.
So, was it a good movie?
>>291127912Total shit. Almost put me and my gf into a coma.
>>291127912it wasn't even a good musical
>>291127683>LET'S FUCKING GO!Yes
>>291127338Real talk tho who tf genuinely believed One Piece was ever a series where the moral of the story was "you can do le anything if you le work hard enough!" it was never about that kinda shit like Naruto pretended it was. Do people really look at Luffy's past, the people he knows, and geneology n shit and actually convinced themselves he's some complete nobody?
>>291127912No, the clickbait ad movie to shill Ado's music was not good.
Live action season 3 episode titles.
>>291127962>like Naruto pretended it wasnaruto wasn't even about that eitherthat was a minor plot point and Rock Lee's hangup, not Naruto'sresolved almost immediately when Guy and Kakashi both said that Lee was, in fact, a natural genius of his own kindnaruto's beef with Neji was about wether a person can change their fate or not, not natural talent vs hard work
>>291127962>who tf genuinely believed One Piece was ever a series where the moral of the story was "you can do le anything if you le work hard enough!"WASPs
>>291127912Even if we completely ignore the fact that this movie has like 5 minutes of Shanks and is a glorified music video for Ado's songs. It had a lot of dumb shit that it makes up for movie, like hold the fuck up theres literal DEMONS in One Piece now?
>>291128009not to mention Neji was factually wrong about what Naruto's fate was to begin with, since he assumed nart's fate was to be a loser but actually his fate was to be a living weapon that would be forced to kill Sasuke or else die at his hand
Normally Sanji defeats his opponent first. Do you think it'll cut away to him defeating Killingham before Zoro finishes off Sommers, or will things go differently altogether?
>>291128028>like hold the fuck up theres literal DEMONS in One Piece now?>I can believe there is fruit that people can eat to give them superpowers but demons? wtf thats unrealistic!
>>291127994Are they going for the 4kids crowd?
>No nika possesses LuffyOH COME ON
>>291128099Killingham being defeated would save the children and release the tension, so that'll probably happen last
Killingham is too cool and sexy to die at this point in the story.
>>291128099At present he has no way to defeat him permanently. Hasn't unlocked CoC at all, and I don't think he even knows advanced armament. He's at least 2 steps behind being able to do anything except just keep kicking him around. Unless the surprise will be something like extreme heat also breaks their hearts, but that would be rather dumb since fire attacks seem rather common.
>>291128240crossing my fingers for okama kenpo
>>291128232Sommers will dieKillingham will be taken hostage temporarily and become a gag character Gunko will turn back to being good, and give the Strawhats info on the HK/Imu/etc.
>>291128240Sanji's win condition is just knocking Killingham unconscious, that's enough to dispel the monsters and then they can just tie him up like they did before Doesn't have to kill him
>>291122794> Someone actually requested Oda to draw the Blackbeard writing meme for a coverOK, which one of you based motherfuckers was behind this?
>>291128240>Chapter 1196>Demon hell Diablo french cooking term kick>*Lights cigarette* I won't let you harm the country with sexy giant ladies >Break next week Something like that
>>291122794This pacing reminds me of Bleach in the worst way possible.
>>291128351OP won't finish until 2035.
New CoC badOld CoC good
>>291128248>Sanji remembers Ivankov telling him that to master COC he has to be true to himself>Okama Sanji arises
>>291128380I dont care about that, but chapters where nothing happens at all are very "Bleach".Hope the summary is ass, and the chapter is better when it comes out.
>>291124873>>291124818>>291124275>>291125551>>291125575>>291125587>>29112346>filenamesWhy is this newfag iToddler arguing with itself?
>>291123822Oda has hit that age where he won't live much longer, so he's doing everything he can to stockpile cash to leave his family. This is why you see so much shit like live actions, movies, amusement parks, collabs, etc. Hes cashing out before he checks out.The diabetes and smoking finally caught up with him.
>>291128381Yes, young CoC is preferable to old CoC.
>>291127912Promo for a famous jap idol that worked insanely well in Japan. Which was the point.
>>291128381New Armament?
>>291128399far too kino for modern Oda
>>291128406Yeah I know what you mean. It's basically chapter A is "this thing is about to happen". Then chapter C is "this thing happened". But chapter B is still "this thing is about to happen". There are these interstitial nothing chapters that don't change anything but pretend they do.
>>291128433Nuking two cities worked insanely well in Japan.
>>291128467Comparing Ado to nukes is kinda metal.
Oda saw Orochimaru and literally said" I want that in my manga too"
Um, why does Oda draw little girls in such an incredibly sexy way? Should we search his hard drive and report it to the FBI?
>>291127259I really do hate how current villains are invincible unless you use this one trick.
>Never free>Groomed by everyone and everything>nepobaby>1 in a billion abilities required to become PK>Super duper god jesus reincarnated fruit chose him to be the ultimate chosen one>Does stupid shit all the time but never gets punished unlike KidIts amazing how nardo ended up being a more honest MC that luffy
Why are Zoro chapters so boring?
Why are Imu chapters so boring?
Tenryubitto:>Nefertari>Rosward>Donquixote>Jaygarcia>Markus>Ethanbaron>Toppman>Shepard>Nerona>Manmayer>Figarland>Rimoshifu>Bavette>SatchelsD.:>Davy (Rocks)>Monkey>Trafalgar>Jaguar>Gol>Portgas>Nefertari>Clou>Marshall (Maybe)Do you notice anything peculiar about these names? I've noticed that a lot of the Tenryubitto are named after rich families or top earning companies while D. names have a lot of animal and nature references.
>>291128620You haven't read it yet. It's going to blow your fucking mind
>>291125463He just might be, but it's hard to tell.The biggest factor here is that he was already a pirate, and would be the strongest of the post-founder crew immediately upon joining. The last 2 before him were already pirates and all but possibly brook were stronger than the rest of the non OG5 when they joined.So if anyone joins, they pretty much have to be pretty strong, and are likely already a pirate.What's more, this arc established a new set of giant pirates specifically, which highly suggests they'll be representing the giants in the strawhat fleet.Not to mention, it's not some local person responsible for loki having to kill his dad it's imu and the world government.He has a vested interest in leaving.On top of that, it's been almost as long as it took jinbei to join after brook. We're really due.Each arc has a "comrade of the week" sort of character that the plot derives around. But for elbaf, sometimes they're joining at the end.The key seems to be: if there are two major characters with heavy plot, one will join.So loki or gunko
>>291128620Oda don't know how to draw sword fights
>>291128666Doesn't know*
One piece is dead again because of wings
We have Imu here rather than focusing on that, Oda decided to focus on some useless battles
I think Sanji getting over his simping sickness would be positive for the series. Learn to treat every woman just like youd treat a man, some are weak, some are strong, some are good, some are bad.
>>291127323Yamato and Katakuri are like slave and they have COC for some reason
>>291128726Lets make Sanji boring like Zoro They are pirates, they should have some negative traits
>>291128689Every fucking time.
>>291128726But that's exactly how Zoro sees things, wouldn't that be a humiliating betrayal of Zeff's values
>>291128760Thats not a negative pirate trait. Thats just being a hindrance. What if a woman is about to kill luffy and Sanji is the only one who could stop her?Also I never said he couldn't nosebleed over women still, I'm talking about just being unable to attack them due to chivalry.
>>291128561Current villains like Crocodile and Enel.
>>291128774Sometimes even your heroes are flawed.
>>291122794>luffy and woro train with some of the strongest in-verse characters for two years and come out with basic haki>in 3 months of fucking around on new world islands with no teachers they've gone from struggling against Doflamingo & Pica to the same tier as the people that were teaching them basic haki??? what the fuck, was the timeskip entirely worthless? They made absolutely no progress dedicating years to JUST training WITH masters compared to just a couple months being out at sea dicking around 80% of the time
>>291123602What exactly is he working on though? The story is already there. He doesn't draw the animation. What exactly does this nigga do?
>>291128780At least they only showed up one at a time
>mihawk actually teach everything to zoro>even how conquerors work>zoro just forgot about it and decides to remember nowWhat the fuck is wrong with oda?
>>291128832he thought he didn't have it until now
>>291128824read the fucking manga
>>291128777>woman is about to kill luffy and Sanji is the only one who could stop her?He will stop woman, his policy is to not kick woman, defending is fine. He defended against Kalifa and Big Mom. And characters should have this kind of dilemma
>>291128780Crocodile's weakness was waterEnel's weakness was rubber That was fun and not boring as COC
People that hate one piece characters usung haki are as retarded as the ones that think dragon ball characters using Ssj to fight is a bad thing
Nika gags are better than these trash and boring chapters
>>291128777That is an interesting scenario. But Oda only uses the trait when it ultimately doesnt matter, unfortunately.
>>291128917You haven't read it yet. This chapter is going to be fucking amazing
>>291128915Coc is nothing but punch harder Only good haki power up was future sight but Luffy has forgotten he can see future
>>291128892Yet weirdly Croc could also magically absorb water without getting waterlogged.
Pachy should have killed Goofy
>>291128917My conspiracy theory is that Oda makes Zoro so boring that people end up appreciating stupid gags
>>291128959Pachy is worth nothing more than a sex slave
>>291128959>hyuck, you're quite talented to make me take off these weights!or did you mean Luffy?
Bye I will skip next 4 chapters (wings chapters) and come back when Oda will start focusing on Imu again. I am more interested knowing if that thing is evej Imu's real body or not
>>291128780Finding and using their elemental weakness against them requires more thought than "just use haki lol". Even in the case of Enel, Luffy bring his worst enemy was treated like a big twist that makes the reader go "oh right, rubber, derp"
>>291128973HOLY SHIT IS THIS CANON?
>Enel's main powers were useless against Luffy. >Enel only had mantra and no other haki Still was dominating and wrecking Luffy This is what you call villian
>>291128954He didn't absorb it, he caused dessication, and it only worked through his hand
>>291129052He made water disappear. He could touch something with water in and make it go away forever. Yet water was his weakness.
>>291127369I still like Nami and Usopp
>>291129069Goofy...
>>291128777I love the framing of this post like this wasn't resolved already in Wano.Do the world a favour and kill yourself
tranji
>>291128954not really. Like how hot and cold are opposed and weak to each other in JRPG's, Crocodile's sand is 'dry' element and is both super effective against and also super vulnerable to 'wet' element
>water is Crocodiles weakness>Dragon has the rain god Zaza fruitIts like poetry, it rhymes
>>291128959and Nami, the scene where nami got rescued out of that was pure warm piss
God I just farted and it smelled like One Piece. Yuck!
>Fraudhawk: listen Roronoa *plap conqueror haki is *plap *plap to sense own's stre-*plap *plap so powerful that the weak *plap *plap can't stand a chance agai- *plap *plap remember that
>>291127276Shankek…
>>291122794God damn Oda is so washed
What's with the pace of this manga? We get a chapter every two weeks and nothing ever happens, at this rate we're still reading OP in 10 years
>>291128825Yells at the animators>"Yamada you pig, work harder kisama"
>>291128760Sanji became boring long time ago though
>>291128824And people want another timeskip so Straw Hats could become stronger lel
>>291128824>you learn more by doing something than by studying it in a classroomOh wow just like real fucking life
>>291125915It's just the sameface syndrome for a girl baby that's all
It's important to ignore how thoroughly outclassed the strawhats were the first time they tried to pass through Sabaody, and how competently they pushed through every obstacle in their way the second time around. It's especially important to ignore how many Pacifista's they took down
>>291129862So another training arc?
>>291129727Pls understand, Oda has been doing this for 30 years, he is old and tired and needs every break he can get so he can go direct movies and shit
>>291129891Haki blooms in the heat of battle, didn't you read Wano? Training arcs are obsolete, now everyone can power up after their first mandated loss of the arc like Saiyans.
>>291129917so just like W7/EL
>>291122794Fucking hellwhat a waste of a chapterFuck you Oda
When does our hero return?
You were complaining two chapters ago that Oda was going to just cut to Zoro already victorious with CoC mastered, and skip over the fight
>>291129958No you were.
>>291129967I was quietly posting yaoi fanart
>>291129979Okay that's believable.
>>291122794This shit is so boring and cliche af.All this Haki fokus is so ass.Imu reveal really killed the manga.
>>291129958Shankeks are just mad Mihawk got CoC
>>291129943Was this the last time Usopp had any kind of aura?
>>291130029Spoilers only confirm Mihawk knows about CoC, not that he has it.
>>291129943Usopp said he has a plan so pretty soon probably.
Why is Jinbe doing nothing?
>>291130124After WCI jinbei got Domi Reversi'd
>>291130124He's barely a character, merely a tool to exposition dump.
>>291130067You can say that but It’s more likely anyway, he’s not Shanks’ rival for nothing
>>291129943>juan piss peaked 20 years ago
>>291129993>Imu reveal really killed the manga.This but unironically. Shamrock, and Gunko to a lesser extent, legitimately could have been the arc's antagonists and Oda could have still the "arc's...over?" Fake out once Imu possessed Shamrock's body after he got defeated by Luffy&Loki.Could have retained Imu's intimidation and presence by doing so.
Why aren't pirates the bad guys?
>>291130183Just like me.
>>291130204because the evils wrought by a group of a dozen or so people will always be nothing compared to the evils wrought by a governing body of thousands that have made it illegal to resist being oppressed, and the millions of bootlickers at their beck and call
>>291130204true bad guys hide behind the face of good
>>291122794this chapter could have been an email, hackda at it yet again
OP would still be good if Ulti was around.
Everything after Wano was worse than Wano, apologize you niggers
>>291130204Most pirates are psychos, the memehats are a complete joke of a pirate crew
>>291130417None of the Yonko were evil
Elbaf is a good arcEgghead was a good arcWano was a good arcGear five is the best transformation in shonenAnyone who disagrees is a hiatusfag
>>291130204Uoooh scary Robin erotic
Whatever happened to that Ishitani animator people couldn't stop sucking off?
>>291130470The best transformations were those of Baron Tamago/Viscount Chick etc.
>>291130497Nerve gas.
>>291130497he's dead
>>291130318>>291129993you niggers spoil yourselves with reductive text instead of enjoying the manga's delivery then complain about it being bad, no shit you're not gonna enjoy one piece like this. me on the other hand, am a one piece enjoyer, i see these leaks and think "wow im really going to enjoy the comedy between zoro treating sommers like a training dummy" and "wow itll be interesting getting insights into mihawk's idea of haki and how zoro will manifest it"
>>291122794Another shit chapter from Oda *sigh*
>>291128525Caesar is nowhere near as weird as Orochimaru.
>>291128644Until we get a family that is called Rojoaegis or some shit I will not say anything definitively.
>>291130454>big mom>not evil
>>291130556Stop finding things to enjoy and start asking what killed the hype every hour like a normal person
>>291130204Because they don't live in a society
>>291130671Not any more evil than a typical obese single mom mudshark with pink hair so just a typical amerimutt woman, slightly less evil actually as she doesn't kill her toddlers
>>291130626>both like to run cruel and unusual experiments on kids>both worked for their respective governments>almost same aesthetic Only thing Ceasar doesn't have in common with Orochimaru is that he actually had to face consequences for what he did and didnt get off scott free.
I was interested in Zoro and Mihawk's Haki 15 years ago. Maybe I'd still be interested if the retard didn't wait 500 chapters and make Zoro look as dumb as his creator in the process.
>>291130708Caesar is also far more pathetic and I don’t remember Orochimaru larping as a mobster.
>>291130708>he actually had to face consequenceslol he didn'tOda and Kishi are both hacks
>>291129943>Naga-Hana-Kun...!!*>*Long NoseTranslator probably assumed we'll see a lot more of this guy so we need the authentic Japanese for Long Nose
>>291122794You could tell me this was a Fairy Tail chapter spoiler and I wouldn't bat an eye.Zoro's writing has been so fucking bad all throughout recent One Piece.
>>291122794God thats dogshit
>>291130994I was actually tricked into thinking he had caught on to something after the King fight. I should have known better.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vdc5_54dnUE
Toei's fillers about the 2 years timeskip was more interesting than this Mihawk dialogue kekIt's kinda annoying Oda is keeping Zoro's eye thing hidden till apparently the very final arc of the series.
>>291131039>It's kinda annoying Oda is keeping Zoro's eye thing hidden till apparently the very final arc of the series.The longer he waits and the more near-death experience Zoro has, the dumber Oda is.
>>291131039>>291131050I don't agree, it's actually coded like something to be kept until the very end. It's not nearly as cool if he keeps it closed for just one arc and then reveals hawkeye to some jackoff, but if he keeps it through all the arcs and years of Zoro being known as the scareye, then revealing it at the final fight, it has actual payoff.
>>291131039Zoro doesn’t have eye powers he just lost it to look like Ryuma more
>>291123482Why's it take our heroes so long to remember seeing ACoC in action before? Both Luffy and Zoro have been leaking and using it for at least 3 years, but their asshole mentors never focused on it. Zoro should have never stopped trying to figure out how to cut better until he cut seastone.>figures out how to cut steel>I'll just stop here because there's nothing else I can't deal with, except this material here, which has clearly been machined/carved into shape>how the fuck do they do it>hang on we went to a location where they know how this material is formed>how the fuck do they know>2~ years later arrive in wano and STILL don't ask how the fuck seastone is cut
>>291122794Haki has to be the worst power system in popular shonen ever.
It's fine for something to make no logical sense as long as there's a chance for a hype aura moment later on.
oda is using awalys the 2 years timeskip for pulling asspulls out
>>291131168When Luffy was having flashbacks of Hyogoro in Wano just a few dozen chapters after the prison I thought Wano would be the new source of these. Nope, he's incapable of leaving the time gap alone.
>>291122794This chapter reads like that fucking Ippo copypasta>JUST SLASH HARDER, RORONOA
>>291131200I mean, he's got swords as his main weapons, the fuck's he supposed to do other than slash harder?
>>291131137I don't think this can even be argued, it's basically just there because Oda made Logias way too strong and having "Luffy is immune to electricity or covered himself in water/blood" moments every time they ran into one wouldn't have been feasible
>>291122794What diff does this Zoro push Kaido
>>291131210He's not supposed to do anything else because he's been written into a corner with this hakislop. He used to come up with new techniques, now he needs to burn his Cosmos and unlock his Seventh Sense or else he can't be a top tier.
>>291131234>new techniquesThat were all slashing harder. He slashed hard enough to get past steel, he slashed hard enough to send his slashes flying through the air, that's all Zoro has ever done.
>>291131227>wouldn't have been feasibleI think it would've been. Light is defeated by mirrors or vantablack items. Magma is the hardest because it's both rock and fire, but it's deservedly hardest.
The thing I've never understood about people who share this hobby with me is the inability to see when things have gone downhill. As a fan, shouldn't people want things to actually be good instead of just pretending the bad stuff is good?
>>291131276Most of the people reading One Piece now started reading it during the pandemic, or later.
>>2911312816-7 years should be enough time for even covidpiecers to see the downward trend assuming they're caught up and reading weekly.
>>291127323Strawhats will must be shit
if mihawk has coc why he didn't able to kill basic haki vista in 1 slash..
>>291131276I've been reading since 2006, I like post-TS more than pre-TSDeal with it
>>291131311Nice selfie.
>>291131309Vista had two swords and 2xCoA = 1xCoC
Wano is a literal filler arc, nothing that happened in it matters
>>291131309He didn't need to? He was obviously holding back. He was sandbanging at marineford.
>>291131309He didn’t want to kill him just duel
>>291131358>He was obviously holding back.Holding back the shit that was trying to escape his ass when he found out he was going to have to fight Vista.
>>291131309Vista is simply that strong
>>291131309Vista is THAT strong
>>291131335Now I wish Luffy also learned to properly control Gear 5 afterwards so we could recommend a full skip of Wano
>>291131369>>291131372How did he lose to Blackbeard then
>>291131448Teach is THAT strong.
And before you ask, Bepo is THAT strong.
>>291131309When you realize top tiers in One Piece are just boogeymen who aren't allowed to do anything onscreen, they only exist so no-names could look at them and yell "OH SHIT IT'S THE STRONGEST GUY EVER"
>people around him faint when he goes all out >wow wwhaaaat I have CoC? Really nigger?
>>291131588oda has dementia
>>291131309read the fucking manga
>>291131588Zoro is THAT retarded
>>291131588Zoro actually lost his eye and a golf ball sized chunk of his brain from a stab while training with Mihawk. He is mentally subnormal, please be patient.
>>291131625
>>291131620He was a retard but he was never that retarded when it came to fights. After cutting steel (looking back, that was likely haki) he immediately trained to try and draw out that power. It's like Wano was a filler arc. Nobody really had introspection after the arx and it went straight to Egghead.
>>291131644We don't have time for reflection and post-arc character moments, we have to get this thing to the finish line! But not too quickly, Oda needs his break every other week.
people are suprised that sanji gonna have the better fight again. i think the only good fight zoro had was with kaku and ryouma
>>291131644Zoro was in a coma for a week after the raid, woke up, and immediately got blind drunk and partied for a few daysno wonder he barely remembered fighting King when on Egghead
why don't they just cut the immortals into pieces and separate the pieces into containers and dump them into the ocean?
>>291131672The only thing Oda can't cut are reaction panels.>>291131691This is the first time Sanji's fight happens after Zoro's since... Arlong Park.
>>291131714>why don't they just [...] dump them into the ocean?People have been asking this since Buggy.
>>291131721and the world still awaits oda's answer
>>291131738"..."Break next week.
>>291127994
>>291131738>>291131746
>>291122794>break next weekWhat is this? 8 weeks in a row with alternating breaks?

>>291122970watch as Koby unlocks conq haki just by punching ships harder, luffy was fucking dumb for wasting his time training and fighting strong opponents lmfao
>>291131934Ships are strong opponents. Garp oneshots most pirates, but he uses the same ship for multiple training sessions.
>>291131805Previous two chapters didn't have a break between them
>>291122794>It's another one "Zoro remembers something" asspullI wonder what asspull is Sanji going to do, Diamble Jambe but using the other leg to spin? Full body Spin? Spin extra hard now that his body is Germa? Spin in reverse?
>>291131721>>291131738I'm still convinced this is how Blackbeard will die
>>291132005Seems strange for someone not immortal
>>291132005That's how they'll try to kill him, but he'll activate his fruit before he hits the water and suck up the whole ocean.
>>291132003Diable Jambe Act IV will spin a hole in the universe.
>>291132005If Shanks doesn't die he'll drop Blackbeard's head into the ocean (Blackbeard with Imu's fruit).
>>291122794Finally he’s closing in on Mihawk
>>291122794What the hell did Mihawk's words mean
>>291132190I get the impression we're losing its meaning in translation.

>luffy is a rubber man so he is durable>luffy is also a zoan so he's even more durableSo is it like additional durability, or multiplicative? Is he twice as durable as the standard zoan, or is he four times as durable since his double durability from the rubber would be dou ked by the zoan element?
Elbaf is a shit arcImu is a shit villainOne Piece is a shit series Oda is a shit writer
what if awakened tremor tremor can shake someone's resolve
>>291133827That was referring to observation haki
>>291132831>>291133246Start the "barbecue", "mes"
>>291133905pretty sure it's all haki dude
>>291133900only if that makes sense in Japanese

>>291133880>he also carries will of D. so he's even more more durable>he also wears the strawhat so he's even more more more durable>he's Dragon's son so he's even more more more more durable>he's Garp's grandson he's even more more more more more durableNepo Piece in a nutshell
>>291133939no. oda will do whatever he wants to make the story interesting.
>>291132190>"The strong... are stronger than the weak"Very inspiring, 10/10 would unlock CoC again
>>291133951This is how you know Croc is a shitter who doesn't belong in the New World, Haki>all.
>>291133968>>291133880>>291133745the most powerful thing in the world is DD's titties
>>291134022No this is how you know Croc is a hardcore gangster who is prepared for hakimen and their tricknology
Hows sanji gonna beat Qilingham without CoC? germa nanomachines?
>>291134057Kidd outta nowhere
>>291134022Zipper Frog didn't even get into CP-A0
>>291134026Is that why Nami can hurt Luffy?
>>291134074surely her cup size is larger now
>>291134057instead of CoC he'll awaken CooK and it's going to be the same thing because Luffy has the toon force and think it's funny
Haki and it's consequences have been a disaster for One Piece.
>>291134022Crocodile has haki, he just can't use it.
>>291134119he clearly has observation
>>291134071He did, Kizaru
>>291134090First time I've ever laughed at a Sanji joke.
>HK weaknesses are CoC and having Metal Heartsif only there was a character who had CoC and could control metal who was recently near elbaf
>if only there was a character who had CoC and could control metal
>>291134026Maybe that's why Imu wants Vivi but he didn't see Nami yet with her bigger titties according to >>291134088CoC is stored in the boobs
>>291134296oh pleasethey were right by the shore, and Oda went out of his way to show that the underworld has a bar that welcomes everybody including shipwrecked piratesKidd and his crew are there, right now

oda just needs to go back to rape and cuckoldry
>>291134693omelette
>>291129911Why would someone 51 be old and tired? He's not 70. Are you telling me that in only 12 years, I'm going to be old and tired too?
>>291130082People here don't just speed read. They speed forget as well. No one here understands how writing works, Chekhov’s gun, etc.
>>291134755His wife nags him to give Nami another sexy outfit so she can slutmaxx but that stresses him a lot because of cancel culture and shounen jump censorship... it sounds pretty tiring
>>291134755Cause he's a chain smoker and already been hospitalized like ten times, he's not healthy at all. But you'd think the smart thing to do in his condition would be to end the manga sooner than later.
>>291134755mangaka die young because they are unhealthy and work all the time
>>291134782>heh, I happen to be a pretty discerning critic myself...like have you even heard of Chekhov's Gun? heh....bet you haven't....really dude
>>291134693I told my girlfriend it was Big News Morgans, she believed me.
>>291130393Are you retarded? The quality immediately increased 2000% after that dog shit arc. We actually got things that felt relevant again and not like some self-contained trash.10 years for this troon infested garbage Kaido saga just to make the point that Luffy is le strong now
>>291134693That's Tranji's egg. It will crack and then Dark Tranji will come out and confront Tranji and tell zhim that the reason zhe likes girls is because zhe wants to be one. But Tranji will win using CoC.
>>291131276isn't it the most common take ever that things went downhill after timeskip? you aren't that special
>>291134870Despite its flaws, Egghead + Wano bundle is the best thing in One Piece since Water Seven + Enies Lobby. Impel Down + war is great but not your typical One Piece adventure.
>>291134693Man the deck of their ship makes no sense
egghead was great until it became 3 months of vegapunk yapping and telling us things we already figured
>>291135135only took six minutes when reading the finished tankobon like God intended
>>291135089don't worry about it. Usopp never saw it so he's not able to accurately describe it to the audience
>>291135135Oh you knew that the world is sinking and Joyboy was the first pirate? Faggot. We may have figured some things, but the characters need to be caught up to speed. And what you think is obvious might not be to young Japanese kids, who are Oda's intended audience for this series
Imagine being born after One Piece ends and recieving the complete manga collection from your grandma as a 10th birtgday gift. Never having to wait till the next chapter comes out.
>>291135038>Egghead + Wano bundleLol. Wanocucks trying to leech of Egghead, that canonically belong to a whole different saga.
>>291135235>Oh you knew that the world is sinkingyes we basically did>joyboy was the first piratewho gives a shit and doesn't even make sense. in one piece you are a pirate when you go out on the sea and have adventures, you are telling me no one ever did that before joyboy? did he invent ships or something? lazy cringe way to make joyboy specialboth things only need one chapter, not the dozen or so epstein was yapping
>>291127642>The solution: punch biggerBravo goda
>>291135370I meant Egghead + Elbaf. Obviously Wano is shit.
>>291135308>what is that thing on your shelf>oh just some lame shit my grandma got me
>>291134688A rare talent we both share, brother.
>>291135308>I can't believe the One Piece was just a fucking chicken egg
>see people criticize anime quality>point out that many OP animators are no longer even Japanese>this cuck post>"erm, race only affects skin color and it's a total coincidence that Japan invented anime and is the only country that's really good at it!"Always the dumbest posts once a thread hits bump limit, like they know no one's coming back to reply so they feel safe posting trash just to have the last word
>>291134057Kick him into the fucking ocean to cause him to drown infinitely
>>291135885the reason nips invented anime is bc they can't draw anatomy for shit
Elbaf fell off the moment Oda's decades-long final villain finally appeared. Grim.
Guys... tcb is kill
>>291136054thank goodness
>>291135997For some reason Oda decided to make Imu a bumbling retard instead of immediately one tapping Luffy like Crocodile, Aokiji, Kizaru, Kuma, Magellan, and Kaido did.
>>291122794>zoro chapteri barely even care to read this chapter, that's how irrelevant oda allowed the straw hats to become outside of luffy. anyone else?
>>291135997Imu raped Shitki and Jobfy though
>>291136188They are still conscious and able to fight
>for some reason
>>291136054good riddance
>>291136054how many times does that make it now
>>291136188But Loki was just playing around, not even using his hybrid till now, not using this big thunder attack, never using the instant ice attack etc. The writing sucks.
>>291136112Maybe if it was a better opponent and not a character Oda established as a comic relief scrub the moment he appeared.
I agree that One Piece has ups and downs, and the current arc has issues, but there are chapters I've enjoyed a lot during Elbaf. Some of you just whine and complain nonstop like women with no self-awareness. Share your criticism and your problems with the chapter, but enough with the sadboy doom and gloom "muh old one piece," "muh pre timeskip," "memba when one piece was good" routine. It's getting old and making this place annoying to browse and sift through replies to actually have some kind of discussion.
>>291136401>and the current arc has issuesit's mostly imu
>>291136424Imu is my favorite character in the manga currently, but to each their own
>>291135235most one piece readers in japan are in their 30's at this point
>arguing with losers that just go off the spoilers each week and don't read the manga
>>291136365On one hand Idk why Oda thought this was a good idea but on the other hand>haha actually the world government secretly had dozens of top tiers the whole timewould be bad for the worldbuilding/balance of power and make the Marineford war look even goofier
>>291135997Because he isn't. He is whipping out all his kit at once.
>>291136488Not even trying to argue, just hoping to spur some self-awareness into these people who just complain and whine about everything because it's part of their sadboy pity party personality
>>291136401I have enjoyed Elbaf fine, most of the current issues people have are purely all the breaks over the past few months wearing their patience thin.pic related, me when I think of Ragnir, he's such a good little guy (who is Kaido's height)
>>291131738I got his answer right here:>Listen up little anon! You know how your family jewels shrink in cold water, right? Now imagine if every fight ended with someone's junk shrinking. Would you want to read a manga like that?!
>>291136453i assume that's why you try to chalk up the problems to "issues" when the main issue is imu stalling for months, imu acting stupid and all the characters fighting him also acting stupid
>>291135135This being the last chapter around Christmas felt mighty antisemitic
>>291136521If that worked it would have worked by now
>>291136453>oi cook, this oden ishn't as good as yours>I don't know I think its okay, espeshially with a beer *hic*I love these boys like you wouldn't believe
>>291136401Imu is lame, Sommers’ shocked faces are getting tired, and Zoro is boring.
>>291136523>wearing their patience thinWhy are we in a hurry? The story will progress when it progresses. Just enjoy the ride.>>291136559You whine and complain like a woman
>>291136523... and stronger than Kaido
>>291136612>Just enjoy the [slop]you are a nigger
>>291136612why are you reading break week threads when they make you angry
>>291136612I guess they're just worried Oda isn't going to make it, or trolling.
>>291136670hopefully he doesn’t
>>291136612>You whine and complain like a womanweird thing to say after posting this gay picture >>291136453 and saying imu is your favortite character, someone who doens't even have any character traits besides being the generic evil guy and looking androgynous

>>291136918post about what you like about this chapter instead of posting about other peoples opinions
>>291136972This, where are all your posts discussing the awesome, interesting parts in the spoilers? Link them all
>it's a "Zoro tortures someone by mutilating them over and over and nobody thinks this is unusual in any way" chapter
>>291137102this is heading toward being Zoro's first on screen murder, unless Oda pussies out and make so destroying their heart only breaks the contract or something.
>>291137212I doubt they will make Zoro kill for real after only DR's weakness made him and others able to inflict lethal wounds for once.
