Why does it seem that Chopper can change his hat he was given as long as he maintains the pink background with the X? I would have figured the hat itself would have been the important part.

Might just be getting new hats and adding the X himself.

I think Oda said he's just wearing other hats or hat covers over his original top hat. It's still in there, he's just stylin' now.

His "Baseball cap" is just a blue cover over the pink hat, bending the brim down.

Just caught up after a long hiatus, Luffy gut kicking Hody across the plaza was the best thing. :haw:

Also, Hody is a very hate-able villain, I really want to see his rear end get kicked.

I haven't been following the series since I got fatigued from playing subgroup roulette around episode 415. In the interim, has there perhaps been a decent sub group that's covered the series from then until current? Or perhaps a concise guide to show which groups cover which episode ranges?

I see Yibis has a lot of material, but after 400+ episodes of growing familiar with One Piece's terminology, their romanizations (Seven Warlords of the Sea instead of Shichibukai, Comrades instead of nakama, etc.) become somewhat distracting.

Also, how are the Funimation subs?

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

Funimation Subs are great because they're official (Legal), they simulcast (The same night the episode plays in Japan), and it isn't that bad of a sub itself. There's still some kun's in there but it isn't too bad.

Everyone needs to support the Funi subs as much as possible. As this has been what we have been asking for forever. It solves every excuse people have ever used for fansubbing and needs to be more widespread.

If you're in America, Funimation subs are great because you're constantly up to date no waiting for subs. But if you're outside the great wall then you're relying on a single sub group and that's Yibis.

I just watched 553. Glad they did they went logical route instead of being stubborn. Still think Jinbei needs to be leading this counter.

I've been going with CCS Subs for a while now because of the whole roulette thing and Yibis is slow and I'm impatient. CCS recently has started doing speed for 0 day and quality a few days after release.

For the newest episodes I'm watching NWTC, they're some kind of new guys, I don't know if they translate themselves or just rip the official subs but they're pretty much the fastest and always have decent quality (both subs and video/audio). Wish I could watch the official simulcast, though, would save me a bit of trouble every Sunday.

What I wanna know is where would he put them? Cannon in the lion's mouth, clearly it had to be done, but what does that leave left? Does the mast now double as a missile silo now? Or perhaps the other ships within the carousel combine with the Sunny to create ALPHA SUNNY, THE VOLTRON-ESQUE MECHA THAT RUNS OFF OF A COLA/ALCOHOL BLEND!

The last part was purely a hypothesis and probably didn't need to be blocked.

There's always room for pirate docking. Always. Or Franky could be planning on using Big Emperor, with Nami subbing in for Robin.

How many fishman can Robin take out with a death stare over the revival of Big Emperor?

When Sunny was first made, Franky explained that he only used 4 of the 6 slots in Sunny's interior. (The submarine, mini-merry, etc)

I'm probably forgetting something but I thought he had two zeroes for the paddles, and then

mini merry

There are six slots. Paddles are 0. Skypiea cloud scooter thing, sub, and mini-merry are 1-3. 4 and 5 were empty.

New Episode is out. So much good stuff in this one it's hard to narrow down. Brook breaks new boundaries in psychedelic music, Chopper is now Tank Commander Chopper, Franky breaks out his ridiculous Franky weapons, and the pure glee of Surume beating down Fishmen is infectious.

They're both the most memorable villains. Buggy was a fun rival to Luffy and Crocodile was that first biggest brick in the road.

Arlong is popular too, I'm sure. We got a little closure with that though, and I don't know if there's a reason for him to be around anymore now that we've seen the Strawhats beat much stronger Fishmen and align themselves with the strongest.

I really hope he sticks to this hair. Something about the shaved head doesn't sit well with me. It doesn't seem very 'Franky' to me at all.
