i may have to stop supporting this pairing if sanji does not shave off that goatee

So:

I was really bitchy about the latest One Piece colorspread. I can't believe Oda let Zoro lose an arm on his own (I mean...kind of a big deal), Chopper's hat is stupid, Nami's basically pure fanservice, and WHAT THE HELL SANJI. More on Sanji later

andI avoided spoilers like the plague, which is unusual ( Read more... )

About Zoro's arm. I had the same reaction as you seeing the blurry spoilers but looking at the spread now you can see he's holding a sword in his left hand (the blade is visible under the logo). So, very relieved. But that sleeve did look empty! wth Oda you're supposed to be better than that ( ... )

Ohhh, you are right! Phew. That is one skinny arm, then...(or one very loose shirt?)

Yeah, in retrospect, I realized that maybe Zoro was just giving us a saucy wink, but still. That scar is different from all the other ones :/

You know, I wouldn't mind seeing Sanji with black hair entirely. He'd look like a fashionable Japanese actor or something! But he should really just pick a color and stick with it.

The Hancock thing is basically that I loved her as a heartless bitch and I hate that now she's literally a joke, and not a very funny one at that. I just liked her better when she wasn't in love and spent most of her time kicking kittens.

Next week! Let's hope! *crosses fingers*

I too am beyond tired of the fanservice. Love Nami's attitude, though, although I do sort of miss her shorter hair ( ... )

I guess Zoro would be the most likely candidate for it, but personally my pick would be Brook. Think of all the skull jokes he could make.

am I the only one who immediately thought of Terry Pratchett's book Soul Music?
Ohh, good call! I'll have to dig that one out too...I think it was my second introduction to Susan and the one where I began to really like her.

Drawing this picture actually made me dislike Sanji's goatee less:

I love your drawing! That is crazy awesome! Sanji actually looks sort of like Hiroshi Abe, whom I adore the beans out of, so that just doubles the awesomeness for me.

And yeah, I never thought of it before but he does resemble Raleigh, doesn't he? Heh. Wonder if that's conscious or not.

✕ Um Zoro what happened to your arm? Also your eye? Is it permanently closed? I am sure you are still a badass swordsman either way but those were kind of important developments in your life and I am sad that Oda did not let us share them with you. Anyway I hope this doesn't mean you'll be carrying two swords in your mouth now because that would be ridiculous.

It's true, TWO swords in his mouth would be ridiculous. Obviously, he needs to strap on one of his swords to his stump a la Evil Dead's Ash. Swordarms are all the rage these days.

✕ Sanji's goatee. Seriously. What the hell. Why would someone who is so concerned with his physical and sartorial appearance do that to himself. It is not so much the beard itself as it is the color. Black? Really? Did you draw it on with a Sharpie, Sanj? Are you dying it? Or is that your natural color and it's your hair that's artificial? Either way, the contrast is gross. PLEASE RECONSIDER. Maybe it's Mr. Prince's idea of a disguise? We can hope, anyway ( ... )

Hahaha, excellent. Actually, I was kind of hoping, before sybile corrected me, that Franky would build Zoro a new mechanical arm and he'd be like a half cyborg swordsman. But I guess we're stuck with Conventional Swordsman Zoro.

Usopp got the best "upgrade," I agree! And I like that he's not exaggeratedly buffed up; you can see how he got his new body from his old one.

✕ The gratuitous fanservice, which I'm thinking is going to be the norm from here on out.

I was a little sad about that, too. I mean, one of the many reasons why I enjoy One Piece so much is because it contains very minimal fanservice, so it was kind of like my "safety blanket" when most other series were like, "HEY LOOK AT THESE BOOBS AND PANTIES ETC. TEE HEE" One Piece, don't let me down now. D:
