Thread: One Piece - Welcome to 'Thousand Sunny'

Welcome to 'Thousand Sunny', a place for the fellow Straw Hats. Too corny? Sorry =P

Since I did not find any other OP thread, I made this one.

So, on what episode are you guys on? Also, are you just following the anime or the manga as well?
I am currently on 185th episode, the Skypiea Arc. No spoilers!

If you have any general thoughts related to OP or something else that you would like to share, please go ahead.

I'm actually just starting the pre-Skypeia stuff myself. I'm currently watching the Rumble Ball episode starring Chopper and Robin.

I am done with the whole Eneru and the Bell thingy. Can't say I am happy with the way things ended.
The arc took more than 40 episodes and the ending wasn't satisfactory at all, referring to the way they got rid of him. Wholeheartedly disappointed.

I dropped out somewhere during the Skypea arc. due to CN not airing the episodes any further, but I might start back at the Skypea arc. I originally had decided to start back at the Impel Down Arc. because I read the manga during that part a while back. I probably should backtrack and start at the Skypea arc. Plus I like watching the English Dub and if I watch steadily for a while I'll eventually catch-up.

Can't wait, probably gonna start back when I get home today. I guess I'll start when episode 175, "0% Survival Rate! Chopper Vs. Ohm, the Sword Wielding Priest!" since I vaguely remember that being the episode I last saw years ago.

From what I heard, Skypiea isn't exactly the best arc. And I'm still stuck in Episode 156/Volume 27 until I get off my possibly two-month long hiatus...

Other than that, I really like the theme "We Are!", though I can't decide between which of the five versions is the best. My other favorites are "Brand New World" (which got me into the series), "One day", "Fight Together", and "We Go!". For the endings, I only heard "Memories" and "RUN! RUN! RUN!". Also, I find Luffy's theme "Wanted" quite hilarious and fits his character. Bink's Sake is pretty catchy too, I haven't had the chance to listen to the other themes (aside from the openings). Don't get me started on the instrumentals.

I'm about to complete the G-8 arc (filler)... Without a doubt, it's one of the best filler arcs.

We Are! and Hikari e are so far one of my favorite OPs, I did not like the 2nd opening song "Believe". Currently, Bon Voyage is being used as the OP. Its Japanese version is MUCH better than FUNimation's. Other than that, I really like the FUNimation dub.

Fav. Endings: RUN! RUN! RUN! and Free Will (it's sooo relaxing... idk why)

If 4kids's crappy version doesn't count, I only watched Impel Down and Marineford (Funimation has official subs)

I thought the show was painfully slow (compare DBZ), so I decided later to read the manga instead
And I love it. Its popularity and praise are well-deserved.

Yeah, Dragon Ball's filler is quite the mixed bag. On one hand, there are some brilliantly-done filler episodes (mostly earlier on), but on the other... well, let's just say "five minutes" ISN'T that much of a stretch in the manga.

Anyways, I'm not sure how to feel about the Rainbow Mist filler arc. I like parts of it, but Chopper and Sanji went out in totally lame ways...

I just recently caught up, and am now up to date on the anime! Just less than a week ago I "finished", I started somewhere in September, then stopped watching at all for almost two months (by then I was in the middle of the Alabasta arc), then went back to watching.

Now, I loved all the back stories that were given to the characters, but for me Nami's is the best by far. I'm glad they made HD special from it.

I forgot to note about the movies.

So far, I've only seen Chopper's Kingdom on the Island of Strange Animals, The Cursed Holy Sword, Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island, The Giant Mechanical Soldier of Karakuri Castle, and Strong World. Most of them aren't exactly the best (or canon), but my particularly favorites are Baron Omatsuri and Strong World. (I'd add Z, but I haven't seen it yet. But judging from the trailers, it looked pretty epic. From what I heard, it's being released in several Asian countries, so I really hope they show it here too.)
