An amazing chapter. Shushu desperately trying to save his treasure, but failing was heartbreaking. Luffy getting pissed off was great. Luffy and Shushu’s talk at the end was touching. All of it was fantastic.

Opinion

Not really an interesting chapter. The mayor gives a hotblooded speech, but he’s not interesting enough to make you care. For the rest it was more of a transitional chapter again.

Character of the chapter

Boodle. He recklessly charges at Buggy, even though he knows it won’t work.

Spoiler:

Don’t mess with the clown.

Best quote

Boodle wrote:

We made this town!! It is the treasure of the townsfolk and I!!! WHAT KIND OF MAYOR FAILS TO PROTECT HIS OWN TOWN?!! I WILL FIGHT!!!!

Old man speech.

In retrospect

The temporary partnership ended up being an actual temporary partnership. Didn’t see that coming when I first read it.

Finally caught up.

Damn. I missed a lot. I should catch up on this shit.

Omg, that's a brilliant idea. Considering how many chapters one piece has right now, this would probably be the only way I can start One Piece. Once I have finally caught up on Skip Beat, Noblesse and Gantz, I plan to do the one chapter a day of One Piece.

You know it would take you over 10 years to catch up then? I would not advise doing only one chapter a day.

It would take inbetween 2 and 3.

*Facepalm* I had just gotten up and was thinking of weeks for some reason. I think I had my mind on something else haha.

You would have to read like 20 chapters a week in order to catch up in a year; so that's easily do-able.

Hey, that's not bad at all.
And if One Piece is as good as I am told, it would be easy indeed.
I killed 40 chapters a day in Noblesse once and did something similar with Bleach.

Then you should be fine. The amazing thing about One Piece that I've experienced is that the haters are almost nowhere to be found. I'm sure some of you have encountered them, but I don't see many of them. The ratio of like and dislike is almost definitely higher on One Piece than the other two of the Big 3. Either that or the haters are less vocal.

As far as I can tell the ranking of Big 3 goes One Piece>Naruto>Bleach in popularity and rating. I'm pretty inclined to agree with that too.

Actually, it is the same with me.
I have not heard one bad thing about One Piece. Ever.
If anything, they're upset for not starting sooner.
-
Though I wonder, if its just me or not but it would seem that the fan-base for One Piece isn't as extensive (if that is the more appropriate word) as Bleach or Naruto.

I don't know, maybe it is because I hang around die hard Naruto and Bleach fans.

One Piece fans are just less obnoxious. It blows away 2-5 in sales in Japan in particular and worldwide has the most manga sales I think right now. I know Naruto is closer worldwide than it is in Japan solely.

Take a look at this http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-11-30/one-piece-sells-record-38-million-manga-volumes-in-2011

Oh yeah, I think someone posted this in this forum already right?
Yeah you're probably right about fans being less obnoxious.

New mangas im currently reading or starting soon: Zetman, world embryo, the breaker/the breaker new waves, high school DXD, nurarihyon no mago, finished getbackers, and starting sekirei, and historys strongest disciple kenichi.

Oh I <3 Sekirei. I have the first season on my external
