So essentially, they're doubling down?

Why wouldn't they? This has all the makings of a PR disaster, I wouldn't be surprised if OP's sales took a hit in the next year, however unlikely that sounds. Like somebody else said, Nakano's going to look like somebody who's trying to double date two people at the same time.

With every passing moment I just need Oricon's numbers more and more.

Does that mean this is gonna end up like the ending to School Days?

Guys it's not that they are doubling down on it, the official One Piece account always translates the news, it's just the translation (There's also a french translation of the news).

 

[WyldViolet]

I think I can agree with this to an extent. The only difference between them is how widely-accessed those eras were. So it doesn't feel like that era was as influential as it should be, save for Dragon Ball.

They were influential to the people who actually write manga.
Just because westerners or children aren't aware of it doesn't change its influence.

I'd say the Golden Age more laid the foundations than anything else. It's very much important, but in its own way.

though the implication are what make it more exciting



The Damage is Done,
Factions have been Created,
A new war is upon us,
The final trigger is mere days away,
Brace yourselves neutrals,
For the end of the decade is drawing close.

Are you really familiar enough with the era to make such a statement?
Regardless, "developmental and also at its most inconsistent. Lots of series went in very odd directions with no clear goal or meaning, but became successes that influenced later generations" describes the 80's far better.
Not to mention, most of the series from the era you're talking about (late 90's-mid 00's)had plenty of clear goals as has been pointed out to you countless times in the past.

It's cool you still want to hang out here after returning, but please stop with the expert shtick when you aren't sure. It just ends up making the conversation about you when you have to be corrected so that new users don't get confused

Everyone, let's not hope for drama to occur between the KnY and OP fanbases. Let's keep this discussion purely fact based, to the best of our abilities.

Well, somebody's head will have to roll anyways....

 

[Belkac3m]

What's the purpose for them to announce that OP is ranked 1st "compared to other Shueisha's manga" ?

--- Double Post Merged, Nov 26, 2019, Original Post Date: Nov 26, 2019 ---

So it was possible to reach 1000 pages even without S8.

 

[King Moe]

OP always find a way to stay ahead. That's all I am saying. We shouldn't be surprise as this happened before after all.

 

[Halloween]

Also, just a heads up for everyone. I'm going to be closing this thread and creating the 2020 ToC thread the day the new ToC leaks, but a few hours before it actually leaks. That way, we can all migrate over ahead of time, instead of a massive scramble right as the ToC leaks.

 

[Rain Spectre]

Question, do we do our New Years Wishes bets/expectations on the day the thread launches, or when New Years itself hits?

 

[anime64]

so one piece won at the end

lol you're really trying to convince everybody that One Piece is unbeatable huh?

branchi mentioned before that we could do it at the start of the new thread. it's more consistent with this thread that way

i want to see Yonkou doing damage control if Oricon puts Yaiba in first kkkkk

Speaking of Yonkou, he seems to know what studio is going adapt JJK

 

[supercow297]

Speaking of Yonkou, he seems to know what studio is going adapt JJK

How does he even get this info

 

[pamuchi]

Speaking of Yonkou, he seems to know what studio is going adapt JJK

I thought he disliked JJK to the point he was mocking around with pierrot and that he created the site when the anime announcement was leaked.
