  1. Let's see how Jack does first. I would love nothing more than a mass culling of the long runners. They're just so, to borrow a phrase, low energy. Boring. No hype.
  2. As opposed to yours, which is sucking Oda off. Look, you are the reason a lot of people on this board dislike One Piece now. Going right out and saying it. You.
  3. You associate a show with anger and threats and general unpleasantness, you grow to hate it. All its flaws are magnified a thousand fold.
  4. I was legitimately asking if it was satire because: 1. That would be the main selling point of a shounen that focused on gay characters. 2. Adult swim probably wouldn't care about a straight action show.
  5. So...it's not a satire. Which means sending it to a comedy website seems counterproductive.
  6. The fuck is your problem? Doesn't take long to type "cancel this".
  7. Unless it's a satire I don't see any interest.
  8. Aww. It's going to be interesting to see if the robots suddenly become flesh and blood. Genndy has been poking fun of that bit of self censorship for years.
  9. Is the show available on demand anywhere? I want to see how much whiplash the content gets when it's on a Toonami that can curse freely up to "shit".
  10. Hasbro had Toei animate most of their shows in the mid-80's, including Transformers and GI Joe. It's why people occasionally argue if Transformers G1 counts as anime.
  11. Yes, this is what watching OP feels like. Sara? Whatever. Take or leave.
  12. I want One Piece gone because I hate it with the fury of a thousand suns. I hate Naruto too, but I hate One Piece a LOT more.
  13. Zeni spelt One Piece wrong.
  14. Well a lot of people don't enjoy OP and want it gone.
  15. One Piece gone replaced with Garo. Or...anything else really.
  16. While I doubt that's the case, imagine if they did remove One Piece?
  17. I have legal subscriptions to Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu, and occasionally purchase Chogokin models for my desk at work. The last Blu-Ray I bought was the complete collection of Cowboy Bebop a few months back when Best Buy had a sale.
  18. You have never given anyone one iota of respect. It's why no one can be civil with you. Years of death threats and cursing has made people respond in kind.
  19. People are angry because their opinion is dismissed out of hand because they don't like the show. "Goddammit yo."
  20. I call bullshit. Because people have given you reasons. Valid ones as to why One Piece sucks. Pacing. The animation quality being complete junk. Characters who have regressed into stereotypes so badly they made Ned Freaking Flanders look nuanced. (WE FUCKING GET IT. Luffy is asexual and likes food. The joke stopped being funny about 8 years ago). And the arcs have shown themselves to not really have anything to grab onto as far as drama. It's just our merry band of two dimensional stereotypes reinforcing why they're two dimensional stereotypes. It's an endless quest for nothing about nothing. The last actual bit of emotion fell flat on its freaking face post timeskip because it was right back to the stereotypes. And every time this has been explained, you give the same response about how people don't get it. How the "lamestream" is awful because they'd rather spend their Saturday watching a UFC. How the audience wants to see the same thing week in and week out and I call bullshit. If people wanted the same thing like an 80's kids cartoon they would watch One Piece. You need to give the audience something. Something to hang their hats on. Luffy the asexual jellyfish is not it. The audience, to paraphrase Adaptation, sees it and asks "And why the FUCK am I wasting my precious Saturday with your show?! I don't have any use for it! I don't have any bloody use for it!"
  21. And yet Donald and Scrooge don't.
  22. Please, you're only saying that because you agree with his points. If someone made a video essay about hating One Piece, you'd dismiss it out of hand.
  23. It's been mentioned in promos that decades have passed but Jack no longer ages physically.
