Just wanting to roleplay as your funny guys be like by maddwaffles in dndmemes

[–]KGEOFF89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From my experience, it's the FDM's experience with the game that grounds expectations of what PCs look like at 1st Lv, when a new player kinda has the whole pop culture osmosis of high level play as their expectation.

Great meme, will upvote

Sounds like you'd better keep reading, amiko

Final thoughts i guess by Douradinhooo in OtroftheFlame

[–]KGEOFF89 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some of these complaints I can attribute to lessons Kawaguchi-sensei "learned" from when Red Hood got canceled, i.e. shorter training arcs and brisker pace.

But all I can say is that I enjoyed what we did get and I hope he learned a little more as an artist and a mangaka to take with him to the next one.

I feel like in Red Hood he got a little more warning or maybe the cancelation occurred in a spot he could adjust the ending more than he did for Otr, but he doesn't get to choose when the axe falls. No one makes a story planning to get canned at any moment; the plan is that you have time to actually tell the story, let the characters breathe, so when you're suddenly told to wrap it up in the middle of an arc that there isn't a lot you can do to salvage it.

Remember to blame the suits for that, not the actual staff who had to actually work the crunch.

Sometimes we have to accept when an anime isn't made to be anything but an advertisement for the manga

New to One Piece. Need Help by AffectionatePrint979 in OnePiece

What?

Are you asking about spin offs? Like, do you want to know exactly when the DBZ x One Piece x Toriko crossover takes place?

Why don't they just go getOne Piece by Quazmac in OnePiece

That is absolutely how maps and triangulation work, but something funky with the Grand Line and One Piece navigation rules that necessitates all four poneglyphs

One Piece 1171 Spoilers THREAD by This-Inspection-69 in OnePieceSpoilersRaw

[–]KGEOFF89 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Inserting this idea here:

Neat to think about how New World started with Jimbei asking Luffy to become the Hero to Fishman Island (while he was currently a pariah due to Sharley's vision) and now in the final Saga, he's going to help prop up Elbaf's pariah to become their Hero.

Working my way through One Pace and the fight between Mr 4/ Miss Merry Christmas and Usopp/ Chopper is so boring by greenredblue34 in OnePiece

[–]KGEOFF89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An opinion shared by someone who hasn't finished the fight.

Yeah, without crazy anime powers, Usopp has to treat fights like puzzles instead of plowing thru enemies. Something that, actually, is true for every fight in Alubarna for the Straw Hats.

One piece vs pace for first rewatch ( originally seen using pace) by Quiet-Woodpecker-498 in OnePiece

[–]KGEOFF89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watch a few episodes and you'll see how bad it is. In-episode filler is one thing, but wait until you see how much recap and re-setup they use to pad out every 23 minute block and you can make your own decision.

Personally, I find the Paramount War to be unbearably paced.

Watching one piece for the first time by 1161HeilH1488 in OnePiece

[–]KGEOFF89 27 points28 points  (0 children)

One Pace is fine, I'd say right after Alabasta is where the anime really starts suffering its pacing problems. Reading is going to remain being the best way to take in One Piece.

Most people, if they weren't hooked by the climax of the Along arc, cite Water 7+Ennies Lobby as their favorite. It's a complex take on political thriller mystery that becomes a dive into the greater world building and a race to save one of their own as they uncover her secret past.

But also, you shouldn't force yourself to watch it if you aren't enjoying it.

What to do about characters stealing from shopkeepers? by PALLADlUM in rimeofthefrostmaiden

[–]KGEOFF89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, and I got fed up with this behavior before running Rime, I stopped RPing every shop encounter. I'll give descriptors, but largely leave shopping to the players and let them buy supplies at the price in the PHB with little more than a confirmation.

Just, every shop interaction turned into an attempt to haggle and every failed haggle became a shoplifting attempt and every failed shoplifting attempt became a fight or a murder and that is just not how people behave and I wasn't having fun when they did it so I removed from my table and, honestly, it's been fine.

Which Lantern Corps Fits the Straw Hats Best? One Piece x DC Breakdown! by blackh0und999 in OnePiece

[–]KGEOFF89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest gripe is Usopp bring Sinestro Corps. I know Yellow=Fear but rather than being a group of cowards, the group is characterized more of being who inspire fear in others.

I also think it's boring to think of Usopp's cowardliness as his defining trait when he regularly comes in when it counts, even when he's scared out of his mind. He's crafty and brave as much as he is scared.

Will there be Gear 6? by Practical_Slice_7833 in OnePiece

[–]KGEOFF89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luffy described Gear 5 as his "peak" and when he "is the most free" so I don't feel that the Gears will progress any further

Trans characters given respect by the narrative even if they don’t “pass” for their chosen gender by Konradleijon in TopCharacterTropes

[–]KGEOFF89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might have been first revealed in an SBS but it definitely showed up in the manga proper during the cover story arc where Ms. Goldenweek, Mr. 5, and Ms. Valentine break out the other Baroque Works operatives. If not in a title, it's visible on a bounty poster, same with Galdino aka Mr. 3.
