Can someone please tell me how the hell Shank, one of the strongest pirate in the world lost his arm to a puny shark? I have seen people kick the shit out of monster 100 bigger than that.

Er, first of all, it's ShankS, and it wasn't a SHARK that bit off his arm, it was a giant Sea King. They're dangerous and universally feared creatures.

Yes, but afterwards he scared him away with a glance, wtf is up with that. I still stay Shank's could've owned the Crocodile, saved Luffy, and kept his arm.

I guess it was one of those moments when he thought that Luffy would sunk before he would one-hit-K.O. this sea king, and that's why he let it eat his arm :P

Well, all we know is that when Whitebeard asked about his arm, he told him that he "bet it on a new era".

And that the sea king was scared away by this 'spirit' that Shanks seems to have.

I have no idea, but im sure we'll find out eventually, it could be a devils fruit but i really don't think Shanks would ever eat one.

"Manga Filler"

After reading the whole current story and hearing how Oda expanded the story greater than he planned, I wondered what was extra to the story. That's when I came up with the term "manga filler." It's when there are parts of the story that either were not part of the story originally or could be removed or shortened without changing the flow of the story too much. I don't know whether anyone else has thought of this before so don't blame me for copyright. Anyway, I believe that the following is what has/is the extra:

Alabasta arc
Skypiea arc
Davy Back Fight arc and
Water 7 arc


Tell me what you think. Also, I'd like to know if the term is one that I actually made up.

If it was a DF ability how could he have saved Luffy?

I think you should have posted in this thread to start with (or at least you should have read the first post since it basically answers your question, if it was in fact a question to begin with)

True. Feel free to post updated information here and I'll merge the posts together.

Well, I don't think anyone can really say unless they ask Oda...except I think we can all agree that Davy Back Fight is pretty close to "manga Filler", it seems to me that Arabasta, Skypiea, and Water 7 were definately part of Oda's plan, but he may have just stretched them out to bigger things they he may have intended.

What kind of info needs to be updated? The anime is currently up to episode 290. 291-292 are going to be year end specials. (another Edo era one I think)

Hehe, in the "When to watch the movies" part there's a typo: "Karakuri Castle's Giant Mecha Spider". "it's solider, not spider.

Latest episodes, latest chapters, arc update, opening/ending themes update...

Water 7 looks highly compact, and considering the Enies Lobby part, it doesn't seem to have noticeable extensions. Arabasta arc might have some extensions, such as Luffy getting lost in the desert with Chopper and Zoro, the fake rebel army part, the desert pirates. Davy back fight might also be like that as mentioned above, unless that fight/pirate group becomes important later on. Skypie arc does also look compact, not many unnecessary adventures taking place within that part of the storyline (although you can remove the partying parts, or multiple failed attempts of Luffy against Enel).

Latest chapter is 439, which ended the Enies Lobby arc. They're now heading for Fishman Island.
The latest anime opening is "Crazy Rainbow" by Tackey & Tsubasa and they've ceased ending themes at the moment.
And I already said 290 is the latest anime episode, and 291 will be a special.

New to one piece... but in love!

Hey all,
Sorry i know you probably get these types of posts alot.. but im reasonably new to one piece. I fell in love with it when it was on a little cartoon show in australia (where i live) it was the 4kids dubbed version (which i now know is not the best). Since then i have come to america on holidays. I picked up the first four manga books. They are amazing and i love them! So i now have one piece figures and a box of the trading cards (i found a website which still sells them woo.) on order. So, now i am just wondering where i can get my hands on the subbed version of the show. as i would love to see 'the real one piece', so if anyone knows where i can grab it, espically in australia. that would be a great help... also same goes for figures and manga books too!

Thanks heaps,
look forward to talking with you all more!
matt.

If you mean an uncut subtitled version, then legal copies do not exist.

Currently the only subtitles version is the 4Kids release by Viz. Here's what's available at the moment from an DVDPacific (an on-line store). One Piece.

You should also have a read of the "4Kids to STOP dubbing One Piece" thread.
