I started reading the manga, a while ago. I stopped because I learned it was really long. I got back to the anime, and started from the beginning. The East Blue Saga was epic, although too many flashbacks. I'm on the Crocodile Arc, just saw Episode 119 or 120 were Crocodile stabbed Luffy.
And that old man's gonna die or something cuz of the sandstorm! The anime rocks! Luffy, Sanji, and Zoro are my favorite characters. When Sanji was Mr.Prince he was sooo cool!
Vivi is for some reason annoying, and I hate the fact no one OP DIES! I wanted Mr.1 to kill that bratty kid!
