Just a reminder to watch One Piece this coming Saturday.

What for?
unoriginalcommentfuckoffbot
>>25670900
Toei is animating gear fourth and it seems like they did a good job
>watching weeb shit
>ever
>>25670913
Take a lesson from this image
>>25670789
ooooh shit, I guess it's time to start catching up. I started watching it last year and loved it up until fishman island but after that it got kinda stale.
>>25670789
There will soon be a whole new realm of baneposting.
>instead of big guys there are now Bounce guys.
>>25671018
Gear four already appeared in the Manga months ago.
This is Toei's version.
>>25671139
wtf that looks horrible. such a shit artstyle. kiddy shonenfags fuck off and watch something better
>>25671018
>watching one piece
read the manga nigga
>>25671168
>waaaah it's not an edgy aura powerup waaaah.
It's great because its so goofy
>>25671298
No its objectively looks terrible you faggot what a shitty design
why should I care about this guy appearing?
>>25671139
Also looks a bit like Dragon there in the face.
>>25671313
Oh I get it you're a moefag
either that or you're used to the Bleach asspulls
>>25671181
I've already seen 600 or so episodes so too lazy to start all over again.
> "i need 10 minutes to recharge my haki!"
fucking killed the series for me tee-bee-H
>>25671018
> I started watching it last year and loved it up until fishman island but after that it got kinda stale.
I'm reading the manga and I'm worried that this is happening too.
The timeskip was kinda jarring but more so than that this fishman island arc is just so fucking boring and out of place.
>>25671574
nut up, I already re-read the series about 4 times
I'm considering learning to read japanese just to read it for real
>>25671979
I think I actually watched to the end of the arc after that, with Ceaser or whatever his name is, and that was what did it for me, was pretty average compared to all the stuff that happened in the build up to the new world.
>>25671995
If I do get around to reading it I'll probably wait a bit until my Jap is a bit better, studying it atm. Wouldn't recommend trying to learn just to read manga though, not worth the time.
People here unironically watch/read this shounen Naruto/Fairy Tail/One Piece shit? Wow, when I thought /r9k/ couldn't sink lower.
One Piece is my favorite manga of all time, I own all the volumes.
It's a shame the anime has gone to DBZ levels of filler and drawing everything out so they don't catch up to the manga.
I'd rather they switch back to doing one season a year, at least then the quality would go up and I could start watching it again.
I'll check out this episode though, Gear 4 is some hype shit.
>>25672093
One Piece is good desu
Also don't bother replying to this with a shitpost
>>25671979
Power through Fishman Island, it only gets better from there.
>>25672136
Punk Hazard arc was boring as shit though.
>>25672105
A better solution would be to have a one year filler arc covering all of the cover stories that have not been covered yet.
Either that or write a filler arc that actually takes effort thats semi plot relevant and well written
>>25672154
All worth it for Dressrosa
>>25672058
>not worth the time
>to lazy to read a fucking comic book
fuck you, one piece is my life
>>25672182
So it legit gets better after that? Shit man what have I been doing with my life.
>>25672209
Get reading son, you have one of the best arcs coming up.
>>25672194
I mean, why not just read the translations?
>>25672220
oooh boy, that's my month sorted.
>>25672194
> fuck you, one piece is my life
>>25672280
Not him, but it's mine too.
Wanna fight me fagit?
>>25672194
>one piece is my life
jesus
get your fucking shit together
and you wonder why your parents aren't proud of you
One Piece is adventure of a lifetime shit, why would you willingly leave yourself out of it
it's amazing
>>25672252
because they suck
you're caught in between fanlations which use memes and netspeak or are overly verbose or use a lot of swear words to compensate, plus you have to deal with varying quality
then you have official translations which hold your hand and localize everything or add needless sound effect translations over the katakana and ruin the art
>>25672105
dressrosa arc is fucking 10/16 minutes just showing citizens and confused/angry/happy faces per episode. I haven't watched OP for almost 3 months now and just read the manga instead. Will watch once dressrosa arc finishes
>>25672194
nami is best girl in series tbqhwyf>>25672366
>>25672398
That does sound horrible. Although does it really matter? If you've been reading them and still consider One Piece your 'life' surely they can't be bad enough to take away from the experience.
>>25672366
>tfw you will never kiss sugar and become her toy
WHY EVEN LIVE
>>25670789
I'd rather watch moeshit than Wan Piss.
>>25672500
yeah, even when 4kids aired it's shit dub I still enjoyed the art and shit, that's what really counts
I'm not expecting high literature or anything but it's obvious when you read it that the very way the word bubbles are shapes is supposed to be read differently
Oh shit nigga, it's finally happening!
>>25672500
Story-telling is about tone, pace, and execution. Shitty subtitles make things confusing, feel dumb, deliver the incorrect tone, and fuck up the execution.
There are some manga/ anime that go from "Shitty, 3/10" to "AMAZING, 8/10" just based off the correct tone and execution of translations.
>>25672533
Christ the 4kids dub.. Heard about it when I was still watching and decided to look it up, shit made me mad how much they changed. I'll take your word on the manga and just read the Jap one I guess.
>>25671675
yeah me too but dont say that out loud on a's op general
>whole series is about willpower
>"hurr im running out of willpower let me recharge it for a bit durr"
honestly i quit op after dressrosa and im not planning to start again after this shit
>>25672586
This is nothing, compared to some shit I had to sit through. Pic very related.
I stopped watching the anime this time last year. They were doing gladiator battles I believe. How much longer until they finish the Doffy arc? I don't want to wait week to week.
>>25672646
Good ol' DUWANG
>>25672646
Why the fuck would you choose to read that
>>25672586
which is why I kind of like especially shit scanlations like
>>25672646
this one because it feels more visceral, like the syntax has been reduced to the most basic so you have to do the coloring on your own, the same as reading in black and white
>>25672665
It's already over in the manga, try reading it from there, then start over from the beginning if you like it.
It's the original piece of work and well loved by millions.
>>25672586
>>25672646
Good lord, I take back what I said. Studying Japanese would be worth if it meant you didn't have to read that shit.
>>25672113
fat wapanese niggers need to exit
>>25672677
>this one because it feels more visceral, like the syntax has been reduced to the most basic so you have to do the coloring on your own, the same as reading in black and white
On. Fucking. Point.
One Punch Man's webcomic has that vibe to it as well. Fuck man, I wanna add you on steam- literally no one else seems to share this "feeling" sentiment when it comes to deliberately shitty aspects of art/ story
>>25672671
because they're made by fans getting paid nothing for it so at the time we had dozens of untranslated volumes spanning decades and they had to start from square fucking one so once we already hooked on the early parts later on we had to endure shit translations from chinese scans etc.
>>25672692
I'm an animefag. I find the manga hard to follow.
>>25670789
Pirates are boring.
The art looks bad.
The designs look bad.
They're too weak.
The Ocean is boring.
>>25672729
I legitimately feel sorry for you. I thought it looked shit for years after I got into anime... boy was I wrong.
I'm never going to read a manga, where characters announce their attack with a scream.
> GUUUM GUUUM CANOOOOOOOOOOOOON xD
That's a "Stay the fuck away!" sign for me.
>>25672778
>I hate fun
Ok
>>25672729
>Pirates are boring
lol
>The art looks bad
>The designs look bad
You need to stop taking yourself and the media you take in so god damn seriously. Just because the art for something is too zany and doesn't feel like top shelf quality doesn't mean it's simply inferior by all standards.
The style is endearing and instils a feeling of "never can expect what comes next"
>They're too weak.
Yeah, and Walter White can't call upon the gods to rain fire from the sky, and then spawn the devil's sabre to slice the world in half. Power doesn't mean shit in most contexts- RISK on the other hand...
>The Ocean is boring.
Arguable- I'd like One Piece to re-focus on the "forces of nature are determinate but also impartial" feeling. It needs to be scarier.
>>25672757
Forgot to mention I don't like how the female characters look.
>>25672778
I wouldn't mind this too much, only things that would make me interested are the sword fights with zoro and that guy with a cross sword.
>>25672714
I don't really get on steam as I'm not good enough to compete at online games. I agree, it's why I sometimes prefer Silver or Golden Age comic books and old cartoons even though the art is dodgy, or prefer a band's earlier albums because there was less grandiose production value put into it, and so on.
If I had to choose any big 3 it would be bleach.
>>25672835
Sure the visuals aren't the best, but the characters themselves, at least the main ones are really enjoyable.
>>25672844
^ Name is me on steam
I don't play games (yet) either; shit computer
Yeah I like when people are able to notice these more "I see what they're actually getting at and can feel it too" points of view
>>25672871
LOL
O
L
Please be joking.
>watching the OP anime
>>25672894
>I see what they're actually getting at and can feel it too" points of view
2deep4me
>>25672900
Swords are my fetish, and the female characters are actually qt, plot is also silly as hell.
Also in ranks of actual power In respective universe:Bleach>Naruto>one piece?
(haven't read naruto or one piece, this is just guessing from what I see in wikis, naruto got huge boosts recently? So it could be higher than bleach maybe?)
I still wouldn't read naruto because the art isn't compelling either.
I'm the type of person who reads superman and lucifier stuff as opposed to street level stuff.
Opinions.
>>25672927
doffy is a cute killer, 10/10 would fugg
I have a question; why is it, in some shows like Naruto, that whenever they're running their arms are held straight backwards, who the fuck would run like that? Is it easier to animate or something?
>>25673265
tryna be all ninja like xDDDD
>>25673284
Well, it looks like they're running the fucking paralympics.
>>25672344
You are on Cantonese rock collecting board senpai. Realize that
>>25670789
Cant wait, the animations looks very nice
>>25670913
Some day I would love for someone to explain how it's possible for anime, a Japanese media made by the Japanese, to be wannabe Japanese.
>>25673265
If it's derived from manga then I don't know the rationale behind it. If it's something they do for the anime adaptations, then yeah it's probably there to simplify the animation.
>>25674110
The anime itself isn't weeb. It's weebshit because, here on 4chan, people who are not Japanese watch terrible Japanese cartoons. And not just that. Many dedicate hours and hours watching moeshit and Shounen for 100s of terrible shows just because it Japanese.
Not to mention the waifufags, Jesus.
>>25674227
A weeb is a wannabe Japanese, someone who idolizes Japan in an ignorant, superficial and obnoxious way. It doesn't even necessarily have to involve watching anime.
I've never heard of anyone who watches anime or certain kind of anime just because it's Japanese.
I stopped reading one piece after they introduced the Haku power level faggotry
>>25674227
I watch anime because 98% of western cartoons a re garbage
Rick and Morty, American Dad, King of the Hill, and Ben 10 are the only good ones
>>25674726
Oh also South Park
>>25674636
So you stopped reading after the first chapter?
>>25674726
I've never watched anime as a substitute for Western animation, or anything else. When I started watching anime I was too old to care about most Western animation, and wasn't watching much TV anyway. I just watched anime alongside live action Japanese movies and shows and didn't make much of a distinction between the two.
>>25672586
Which one's supposed to be the good one?
I'm literally retarded when it comes to judging quality.
>>25674726
You're a weeb because you don't realize that 98% of anime is garbage too.
Not trying to troll you, that's how I honestly feel. I like anime, but not more than anything else. Hell, the tropes in anime bug me more than most tropes in western cartoons.
Just consume good media and you aren't a weeb, it's when you get blinders to other things because muh animu
>>25676820
to be fair there's also the sheer volume of it
2% of anime is waaaay more choice and content than 2% of western animation
>>25677079
I think I would need to see some numbers on that I don't know that that's true
>>25672194
>fuck you, one piece is my life
Your life is the shittiest overrun anime in history
Kill yourself
>>25677923
I've made it obvious I don't watch the anime anymore. The manga is perfection incarnate.
>>25670789
Get that garbage out of here it's nothing but like 300 episodes of filler
