Alright, guess I'm ready for the only post of the year. :) When I read the last chapters, it was about midnight. I felt like I couldn't just leave it be, there was something I "had" to do for this moment. So I loaded up my favourite Naruto OST-s, put on my sneakers and went for a long jog...

If Juhabach's motive was simply to overthrow the Soul King and cause chaos, you'd think Aizen would have no objections to joining his cause (due to the apparent discontent he showed against the whole institution of SK). His disagreement could suggest either that this isn't Juhabach's plan or...

I've also always had the impression that although Rokushiki was introduced way back in Water 7 as sort of a mystical-yet-trainable Marine martial arts style, it is just a variation on using the different types of Haki. That is to say, I believe Oda had this concept of a power to influence...

602: I think we will see some distractions on the Demonic Trio's path, which they will dispose of quickly (Caribou & Coribou?). Then the whole crew together, ready to sail. Then a massive Marine threat, which Luffy will take care of by himself until Sunny is a ways from the shore. He'll then...

At first I believed that's was just Oda's style of drawing a closed eye - the upper line is the eyebrow, the 2nd line from top is the outline of the eyelid, the 3rd line is just a wrinkle or extra line added for effect and then the last line is the eyelash. But I dunno... I'm starting to doubt...

It seemed to me that since the "kidnappers" used the term "arrest", it isn't actually the Revolutionary Army after Robin, it was the World Government (what else is new?). However, the term used in the original (捕える = toraeru) is ambivalent - although it is often used as "arrest", it also means...

Re: Chapter 108 Discussion - End A story that came to me by chance... A story that didn't leave me for a second. A story that will stay with me for a long time to come.

So that would lead to speculation about Rikudou Sennin being a woman? At least in my opinion your theory suggests it.

Re: One Piece 582 Spoiler Discussion Yeah, gender is not as easily determined in Japanese as it is in English... Could have worked both ways in my opinion.

Re: Naruto 490 Discussion / 491 Predictions Well, theoretically, the more Naruto is able to control Kyuubi's chakra, the more natural chakra he can actually control and collect from his surroundings, as can be deduced from Fukasaku's explanation of how Senjutsu works. You need to have enough...

Someone has probably mentioned this already, but what about connecting the voices Coby is hearing to Roger? The remark by Rayleigh, "being able to hear the voice of all things"... it keeps bugging me. Was it Roger's DF that gave him that ability? Could it be that somewhere along the line, Coby...

Re: Bleach 397 Spoiler Discussion Are you referring to the two dots and a squiggly line? Could that be considered more a design mark or two fastening details and a scratch?

Re: Bleach 397 Spoiler Discussion I just can't get over this cliffhanger :D It's a pain to translate this into English because you can't really put two versions in the translation, such as: V1: You are a Shinigami and... V2: You are the son of a Shinigami and... This might cause a translation...

Re: Bleach 397 Spoiler Discussion Yeah, since we saw that Isshin stepped in just in time to stop that sentence (which adds some reasoning to my guess), it might be left at that for now. But since Aizen was talking about Ichigo's birth at the time, it would make sense to me. Also, I've...

Re: Bleach 397 Spoiler Discussion Hi, I thought I'd share some thoughts after reading the RAW: in Japanese what he's actually saying is: なぜなら君は死神とー Which could end like this: なぜなら君は死神と"XXXX"の息子だ。 Which would, in turn, be translated as: "You are the son of a Shinigami and a --...
