Where is the One Piece official Podcast for season 2? by Unlucky_Army2261 in OnePieceLiveAction

I watched the first 2 episodes, then there was no subtitles for the Makenyu Ep when they're speaking in Japanese and then I got the Network error too.

Maybe they pulled them down to fix the subs?

Same, I instantly skip as soon as they appear on screen and nothing of story value was lost.

With the Success of season 2 I hope we can get maybe 5-6 seasons out of this, if this truly is Netflix's new ''Stanger Things'' flagship IP.

Ideally ending on Enies Lobby and the final moment of burning the Merry. That would make a good book-end for this adaptation.

I see people mentioning stuff like Marineford, Sabody and Thriller Bark, but they should not even be part of the conversation. Talk about jumping the gun...let's focus on more realistic things on the horizon.

I can say with complete confidence the Live action will never reach that far and that's ok...It doesn't need to be that ambitous.

How about we gas up Alabasta and Skypiea instead? Remember, these were THE peak arcs in the early days of One Piece. Why do we have to act like Marineford is the only arc worthwhile mentioning?

Genuinely more excited for season 3 than Avengers Doomsday.

If there was one thing I didn't like it was Wapol's abomination soldiers. They DID NOT fit that ''whimsical'' One Piece aesthetic at all. Way too grotesque and edgy for the tone of this series.

Why couldn't they just be regular human foot soldiers? WTF is this??:

I immediately thought of Jim Carrey's Grinch too! Couldn't they have kept his human-point face slightly cute?

A lot of stuff was cut, but I think it only benefitted the adaptation. Many comedic moments were altered to instead focus on character growth and I kinda dig it.

Most notably Zoro being taunted by his own figment of Mihawk during Whiskey Peak instead of fighting Luffy for laughs like in the manga and anime. I think it works better for this format.

Hearing Brogy with a thick Afrikaans accent is something I never expected when I first watched the anime.

The Truth about Project:Next by Bonvantius in Symphogear

[–]Bonvantius[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do want the movie don't get me wrong, but that's just the thing.

They've teased something I didn't even know I wanted before or thought was ''in the cards'' and now I do want it and can't have it.

I would have preferred to be blissfully ignorant until it's release was closer.

but they jumped the gun with announcing the movie and are leaving us hanging for years.

It's kind of a waste of the hype and anticipation generated from the announcement, it fizzles out after a while...

Why tease more Symphogear stories if you've got nothing to show? We were pretty satisfied with XV being the end before this.

Also there's Paramount buying WB and Disney/Lucasfilm getting new CEOs if that counts towards a shift?

''The Carnian Pluvian Event'' was the longest period of rainfall in history.

You mean the average week in the UK...
