One Piece is my all time favourite (^_^)
I've always enjoyed reading throughout the manga and at the same time hunting down for Pandaman xD
I like it how Oda tries to squeeze him in certain panels of every volume.

The recent chapters were so tearful (T^T)

lol Pandaman! Yeah, I read about that somewhere and was like, "Whut? Really? 8D" But was too lazy to search for them...searching for pandas while reading the manga online and with bad eyesight isn't exactly a good combination. <_< >_>

Yeah. The last two chapters are depressing. I'm wondering what will happen to Luffy now. :(

I catch Pandaman here and there. Sometimes he is REALLY EASY to spot in the anime but way harder in the manga.

I cried at the recent chapters, I couldn't believe that happened! I'm also wondering what Luffy is going to do since he is still in such a deep shock. It's totally expected though after ALL that crap he went through and it still happened.

Heroes will always have a tragic past, I guess. In Luffy's case, his past is a little too recent. Eheh.

Now Luffy has to overcome his sorrows and be more determined than ever to become the pirate king. Not only for his sake but for the pride of gol d roger's final bloodline.

By the way, hunting for Pandaman in the manga is more fun than in the anime =D

I hope it won't change Luffy's personality too much, I like his cheerful and outgoing and optimistic perspective, I'd hate to see him sink into a pool of depression or become all 'serious' in later chapters. It just wouldn't be 'Luffy' anymore like that. D:

As for Pandaman...I think I've only ever spotted him twice in the manga, never paid attention to the anime XD;

I doubt Luffy would change, its just so unlike him. Cause he does grow up in a sense of learning from his adventures but he never really changes. Always carefree and laughing at almost anything.

OMG @ THE NEWEST UPDATE! I TOTALLY CRIED ONCE AGAIN LOL! Whitebeard is for sure in my top favorite characters now. I want tons and tons of issues to see his whole story or a movie all about him, plz k thx.

Sometimes, I see Whitebeard's moustache thingy as horns resembling those of an elephant's tusks (O_o)

Omg thinking of it that way makes him even MORE radical.

There's a new chapter out? :O
Onemanga doesn't have it yet I think...didn't see any updates. *waits eagerly*

Haha! Seeing Whitebeard for the first time had me thinking he kinda looked like a walrus XD

I read it from mangastream, they usually get it out super fast over there. They always seem to have the cleanest scans and really good translations too.

Onemanga finally updated and...wow. Another big one gone. D:

I still wonder what the 'D' stands for >.>;

I was wishing so badly that Oda would give more away about the Will of D. I got super excited when I saw the flashback.

I love the way the update ended, it really showed how radical Whitebeard is. I love what he did too, as if Sengoku didn't have enough to worry about already.

Haha, yeah. Sengoku looked as though all the veins in his head were going to pop any moment by the end of the chapter XD

I love the ending of the chapter too, though it was kind of sad. I also kind of stared at how there was a chunk of head missing from Whitebeard, that was kinda scary o__O

As usual, I can't wait for the next chapter...I want to see what happens to Luffy and how he'll be able to recover from the shock...he was still in that 'D8' state while being carried away...it makes me worry.

Knowing all the mess that is going to happen from it, I still can't even feel a bit sorry for the Marines. Expect Garp cause he is too cool not to like and I know his heart is in pieces right now D:

I thought that part was SO RAD/SAD! It just proves how much of a G he really is.

Same here! I wonder how the battle is going to play out now. Specially since all those new guys are there with Blackbeard to cause tons of drama. I wonder what they plan to do.

Yeah. Any liking I might have had for the Marines had pretty much evaporated as soon as the Impel Down arc started. Except for Garp. He's cool. :P

Yes! Even after all those wounds, he still stood tall and strong, facing those Marines! If I were a pirate, I'd go find an awesome island and erect a monument in his memory, wounds and missing piece of head all included, to show the world just how much of a legend a man he is.

I was pretty disappointed that Whitebeard hadn't managed to kill Blackbeard. Dratted bastard. D:

The marines are so lame. Well I did like Aokiji for a while. I still somewhat do but I'm waiting to see how he turns out.

Omg what they said about his back was so RADICAL. His speech was fantastic, I read the chapter again and I loved it so much.

I wish he would have done that too! I'm so sad that all that mess happened to him from a LIL PUNK like Blackbeard.

I admit, at first impression I didn't really like One Piece much. I didn't particularly like the animation, so I didn't pay it much attention in the SJ, skipping it completely. Then, it came to Cartoon Network, a diluted and massacred version by the evil editors at 4kids. I didn't respect the series at all. Well, one time, I was watching an episode with my dad, and he said it didn't look so bad, so he started watching it over the internet: in JAPANESE. Yes, that's how it was meant to be watched! He showed us the anime, how it originally was, and I got to compare it to the watered-down version I had originally seen. It blew my mind.

Yes, from then on, I tried to catch up to the anime in Japanese, which was a lot by then, the Skypeia ark if I'm not mistaken. But it wasn't enough, I wanted more: it hooked me. I went and read the manga in Japanese. I caught up, and needless to say I'm not disappointed. I keep reading it week by week <3

I did see clips of the new FUNinmation dub, and its a lot better than the original dub. It might even motivate me to buy the box sets when I can afford it.

4kids really slaughters all the good animes out there, from what I've seen and heard.

4kids made One Piece look so bad. I have tons of friends who when I talk about One Piece, start laughing cause they've only seen the 4kids version. I quickly show them the REAL One Piece and now they are hooked on it too.

I haven't watched the FUNinmation dub and I don't think I will. The voices in the Japanese version are too perfect for me that I don't want to hear anything else. I don't even like to buy the volumes translated by Viz since they say ZOLO instead of ZORO and I just can't stand it. In the end I do anyway, if I have the money, cause I just love One Piece way too much lol.

Yes, 4Kids slaughters everything it gets its claws into. If anyone does want it in English, the Funimation dub is a million times better than the 4Kids one from what I've seen of it. The original Japanese is still the best, though.

I too officially hate the Marines as of the recent chapters. Except for Garp because he's awesome and Coby because he's adorable.

*sniffle* Poor Ace. And Luffy, too. Can't wait for the next chapters. I'm so glad I got back into One Piece again.

I think everyone really hates the Marines right now. Everything that is going on it all their fault for trying to take on Whitebeard and making dumb choices like letting Blackbeard become a Shichibukai.

As radical as this arc is even with all the sad parts, I really hope it ends soon because I miss the Strawhats like crazy. I wonder how they are all gonna meet up again.

Yeah, I subscribe to SJ, which introduced me to One Piece. :D It's been one of my favs ever since. I mainly read it by SJ, but I'm starting to read it on OneManga. :) My fav character is Robin! :D The HanaHana fruit is so fun! XD And she's pretty. I admire her. Wooo! (don't mind me, I'm crazy. ~.^) Zoro is pretty awesome and Luffy is just plain amazing! XD Nyaa~! So coooool!

I think everyone who reads One Piece from Shounen Jump is going to have to start reading it online or waiting for new volumes to come out. Seeing as they totally skipped so many arcs to get up to date with One Piece. Which is really annoying.

How can you go from Arabasta Arc ALL the way to IMPEL DOWN with only a crappy time line to help you out? I couldn't believe it when I saw it. One Piece is a series that connects so many little things and if you miss all that, you'll be very confused if Oda ever decides to cover and connect something later on with past adventures.

Shonen Jump did that? That's...insane. In a bad way. o___O

Yes, I'm really curious as to how they're going to meet up again. While I really want to see the group gathered once more, I also want to see how the others are doing on their island, especially Sanji's XD

I think it'll probably be a while before the Strawhats meet up again, there probably needs to be a couple of chapters getting Luffy lightened up again from the blow of Ace.

I can't WAIT for the Strawhats to get back together. I miss Franky, Ussopp, Brooke, and Chopper so much! Especially Franky! I can't wait to see them again !

And I was so sad at the end of the last update, but it was also really radical and it showed how awesome Whitebeard is. I didn't really like him at ALL when I first saw him, but somehow Oda made me love him so much. That happened A LOT in this arc. I did NOT like Crocodile at all , but now I LOVE him so much. Same with Buggy too.
