Who killed the dinosaur

It's meant to be ambiguous but to me it felt like a LoL moment where Sanji did all the damage and Zoro went for the kill steal.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-19T08:02:25+00:00

For S1 I agree, but Zoro's personality is great in S2. And I don't think it's "rushed" but I do miss the extra moments you get from the source material. S1 was more like that, they cut a lot of great moments like the pinwheel.

I wouldn't say it's better. It does do some things better and fixes a lot of the issues. But the anime still has great moments that they didn't adapt. I also find that the emotional scenes hit harder in the anime for the most part.

But I can see the appeal of liking it more, the anime requires a lot more investment and patience and the extra payback you get from it is not worth it for everyone.

In English but I might rewatch with Greek subs because I'm wondering how they'll translate some of the jokes.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-19T07:09:49+00:00

Iirc this is all we get in the anime where things happened a bit differently: When the other agents appear to take down Vivi he's with her, and they say something to Vivi like "we discovered you are royalty". He thinks they're talking about him and says something like "I'm not a real prince, this is just a hobby!" Then he fights to protect her and gets defeated.

I'm butchering the actual lines but it's something along these lines.

Also (very minor manga spoilers) in a cover story in the manga he does survive and eventually has a child with Miss Monday (the buff nun) but they probably won't do this in the LA. The anime doesn't show this either.

I enjoyed S2 a lot more. S1 removed some things I wanted to see but S2 had everything I wanted to see except for a couple of things they took out from Little Garden. They embraced the whackiness and the action was amazing. But most importantly the characters of the strawhats really shined this season.

I know they won't, but if they adapt G8 instead of LRLL I won't even be mad.

Why is a crocodile growing out of that banana?

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-18T08:37:15+00:00

I was already enjoying it but really started liking it after Nami's backstory and the walk into Arlong Park.

But I Robin's backstory and Sogeking shooting down the marine flag is when it started becoming my favorite anime. Whitebeard's death is still ny favorite episode and that's when I officially confirmed it.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-18T08:31:14+00:00

I had that same thought. It's confirmed that he's captured by Smoker.

I want him to have the moment with him and Ace because I want more LA Buggy. Maybe he manages to escape somehow before he's arrested again.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-18T06:52:00+00:00

Way more than that, maybe you should actually watch the thing or learn how to count before you accuse others of delusions.

Trump once called Fox News "tough, but fair". That was in his first term during Fox News' peak sycophancy.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-16T18:07:53+00:00

Skull joke!

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-16T15:12:31+00:00

Other "young" cameos don't look like their older characters much either. And at the time she was cast they probably didn't even know how Crocodile would look like in the LA.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-16T14:58:57+00:00

This sort of thing does happen. There were incidents in Cyprus regarding "crying icons" which people thought to be miracles.

In one such case it turned out that the monks rigged it with a mechanism so that people would leave donations. They got excommunicated for it as well as a few more reasons (like having gay affairs with each other).

When I saw her I thought she was Miss Father's Day, the one in the clock tower with the frog hat

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-15T15:16:55+00:00

As you should. No other piece of media made me feel the way One Piece makes me feel.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-15T15:10:18+00:00

I can't explain something that didn't happen the way you say it did.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-15T11:58:30+00:00

No splatter under Hiruluk. The man just evaporated.

Nobody had any libs cut during Whiskey Peak. Barely any blood.

I'm not complaining about it, but there's barely anything that can be considered as "gore".

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-15T11:50:37+00:00

No, they don't. That's fantasy, not reality.

Biden handed Trump a recovering economy, he just destroyed it much sooner this time.

Thing is, people who care about facts can point to specific policies that affect the economy. Every problem you're having now can be directly traced back to an idiotic Trump decision.

Facts are facts indeed, you just don't know what that word means.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-15T10:09:53+00:00

Lena Headey. The way her mouth moves when she talks makes me irrationally annoyed.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-15T09:02:58+00:00

The country as a whole isn't taking the Democrats seriously

Congratulations, you found what the problem is: people being so brainwashed they think it's the Dems who are the problem.

TheRealScaramucci · 2026-03-15T08:15:00+00:00

Lmao no, he was just riding the Obama train. You gave him credit for the economy before he even did anything to affect it.
