This is very interesting. This would confirm that Oda had already planned that Ace and Sabo would be introduced in the story. And since Dragon was there to save Luffy, maybe he and Sabo were in Loguetown on a mission?Was it confirmed that Dragon came to Loguetown to see Luffy specifically?
Not confirmed but what would he do there otherwise? Loguetown is a small town that was actually, relatively "just", so no intervention by the Revos needed.

I don't know, maybe he wanted to gather info or something, but then if it's truly Sabo why didn't he talk to Luffy? I'm sure he would have been pleased to know that Sabo was still alive.
Oda never ceases to amaze me, it looks like he taught about everything from the start.Like with Usopp's lies that turned out to be true.

To be fair, when Oda himself was asked about it, he said it's because he actually stretched the story arcs.

What exactly do you mean and what source do you have?

Nah, let's put those words into some context. What Oda said was that he tends to lengthen arc, because it takes him more time to draw than he initially intended to. The series was supposed to be a five year long series, but arcs got longer, characters, the world got bigger than imagined in the beginning.

Sabo was likely not in his inital plan. It's easier to plan one or two years ahead of time[the marine spread], than half of the series.

Normally i would agree but i still find it particular that Ace´s S was crossed out from the beginning

Yes, but would it be hard to imagine he had Ace, Garp and Sabo on his plans from the beggining, but would have used them sooner?

Well, obviously we are speculating here now but if i think about how the story arcs and their structure changed from the early East Blue arcs to Arlong arc to Baroque Works Saga, i think Oda understood early that the story would last much longer than 5 years and changed his approach appropriately, so no, i don´t think he could have used them sooner.

Here:



It's got a few characters from popular animes; Mikasa from Shingeki no Kyojin, Pikachu, Naruto, Matsumoto from Bleach and I can't figure out where the dragon is supposed to be from; maybe Haku from Spirited Away.

Ah, I was right :amuse.

I guess now we know what Zoro will look like once the male-pattern baldness begins to kick in, the dreams of being the best swordsman fades and alcohol becomes his one and only refuge :derp

I usually buy merchandise from amazon. It's kinda like a hassle to look for the shops and some of them are very expensive especially if they have limited stocks in their stores and thus they have to raise the prices in order to make up for the profit. But on the other hand, it may be nice to go to stores to touch and feel the items you like rather than buying from the internet. You will only know how the product is like till it is delivered.

I hope you will find the things you want. Please do post the items you buy and show us.

Happy shopping! :^_^

The dragon is Shenlong from Dragon Ball, of course.

Just a thought, does anybody else wonder what would happen if Chopper ate two or three rumble balls now? I'm thinking that's gonna be one of his power ups in the future.
