Them borked spoilers in my inbox man!TizzytheTormentor said:Yeah, Punk Hazard has been a fantastic arc so far! Have you read up to date?SkarKrow said:On the topic of One Piece, aren't you glad that the anime finally hit Punk Hazard? Fishman Island was good (Zoro slashing Hody down in a single blow and destroying the octopus guy in the blink of an eye being highlights, and I'm glad they showed off peoples new powers and gave Usopp and Chopper some badassery, shame Franky didn't get to be a badass again) and all but it really dragged it's heels in the middle. (A bit like Impel Down and to a lesser extent the Whitebeard War)TizzytheTormentor said:I like Fairy Tail, One Piece, Beelzebub and such, although I mostly read the manga for those.
I love Durarara!! and I got Baccano on DVD and I am borrowing my sisters Gurren Lagann DVDs and she wants me to watch Steins Gate, I really want to watch them, but work (which is thankfully ending this week) and assignments (just have to keep on top of them) has kept me from watching them, I might start next week if I am lucky.
I can't wait to see just how strong Doflamingo is! He is heading towards Punk Hazard!
I do like the how Chopper and Usopp got some bad-assery but it sucks that Usopp is still portrayed as a coward, he can be a little afraid (he isn't fearless like Luffy or Zoro) but having him flip out makes him look weak.
Franky really needs another good fight! He is fully capable, but all his battles are in robots.
I'd love to see how strong Doflamingo is, we know he's stronger than Moria, but Moria was mostly hot air and a devil fruit, I'd love to see how strong Crocodile is now, because he fought easily on par with Doflamingo in the battle at Marineford. But I am trying to stick to watching One Piece and not reading miles ahead. Though I do read the wiki out of boredom so I have a vague idea of what goes on on Punk Hazard. I know it has Smoker and Law.
Yeah with Usopp I hope they don't keep him as too much of a wuss, since he's now actually very strong, likely as strong as Luffy was pre-timeskip and a very capable fighter. I really enjoyed him in Fishman Island, where he said something along the lines of "I'm a terrible liar now, I used to be great at boasting but now I can really do all of this".
I'd love a really serious Franky fight, when Franky was introduced he was hinted at being in Luffy's league of strength but he's become a bit of a joke now, though I really do like Franky and find him funny, I love when he gets to be a badass, as I said before when he fights Fukurou is one of my favourite fights in the entire series (when he fights Spider Monkey is good too, a good blend of comedy and badassery!). Though when he was fighting on Fishman Island most of his attacks from the robot involved him opening the hatch and attacking himself.
I think Zoro is likely a bit more badass than Luffy now, the whole Fishman Island arc had him so far outclassing everybody who fought him it was unreal, but with all the energy steroids Hody was chomping on it's hard to get a measure of the gap in power between Luffy and Zoro, though I've always said that the gap between them isn't as vast as everyone claims.
They fought on par in Whisky Peaks way back at the start of the Grand Line and Zoro defeated Hody in a single blow even after energy steroids but before the massive overdose. Zoro also took a hell of a beating during the Thriller Bark arc, taking several head on blows from Oars before fighting Kuma in the aftermath and offering his own head in Luffy's place and taking in all the pain and suffering Luffy had been through, on top of his own, and is left still standing afterwards, albeit in very poor condition.
That said Luffy fought Magellan and lived, and Magellan nearly killed Blackbeards entire crew in the blink of an eye were it not for Shilliew...
