OP is going on a break for a month

DREAMIN'!

Eh, whatever I really don't care too much. As long as Zoro, Nami, Sanji, Franky and Brook are still awesome I'll manage.

Replace Sanji with Usopp and I agree. Sanji is only awesome in fights.

I've never cared too much for Usopp until Enies Lobby and didn't care for him much after that.

Agree.

Although add Sanji when competing with Zoro.

Sanji is my second favorite after Zoro.

He's my third fave doesn't mean i don't think he's a complete dick at times though.

Luffy > Usopp > Zoro > Franky = Brook > Nami > Sanji > Chopper > Robin

Well I'm still at Skypiea, so I don't know much about Brook or Franky but from what I've seen so far...

Zoro>Sanji>Luffy>Nami=Ussop>Nico=Chopper

And yeah, Sanji can be a total dick especially when he doesn't give a shit about the rest of the crew except Nami or Nico. Some bits are funny but for the most part he's an ass when he does that. When he fights, he's definitely the second coolest for me though.

Nico is Robin's last name, not her first.

Oh yeah...

Yeah, Zoro is Zoro's first name too and Roronoa is his last. That confused me at first, especially when even the real translations did that.

I can't wait for the dub to get past the Skypiea arc that way they'll show the best version online instead of mixed.

Yawn.

Reading Skypiea today.

This wait is boring.

Nine more days.

Aight, so the latest Jump has a sketch of what's to come next week.



Amazon: The ship is ready, we can leave anytime you want.
Luffy: Okay, thanks. Hey, watch closely!

Most of the editorial boxes are the usual "WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN NOW?" BS.

As for the last note by Oda,

"Thanks to all, I was able to rest very well. Thank you for the great time I enjoyed. My fuel tank is full now!! The New World Arc will be heading towards the end of the story of One Piece. As I ponder about the new adventures, it's so exciting I feel like I'm starting a new serial! Please look forward to the adventures in the last sea "New World"!

Jump 44 Cover of Jump & Front color pages. 24 pages for the start of the new arc.

So are we to assume there's at least 2 more arcs left? One being the "New World" arc and then following it will be the last arc which resolves stuff along with some final battle?

I sure we'll see some more of Enel. Seriously, it'd be really cool. Although that probably won't be until we get the whole "void century" thing going.

I thought now was meant to be the halfway point. If that was the case those arcs would be stupidly long.

I think we've reached halfway long ago. Unless Oda is constantly pushing it and say "Okay, now is the halfway point" or something.

Well Luffy's at the halfway point in the grandline and i assumed things would be slower on the other side of the grand line as stronger foes. Thats not including the fact he will blatently have to train and get back with the strawhats.

So plausibly i could see the the war arc being around the midpoint, without things feeling to padded out. Especially as I see Dragon sidetracking the plotline again a bit later in terms of Luffy travelling the grand line.

Oh, God. This gonna take forever then...

I hope it'll take forever.
