While I'm not one 100% sure, it seems to me like this picture is from the Movie Strong World (movie 10).

I remember him stealing Sanji's spotlight by saving Robin on some Knight in Shining Armor shit. It was also nighttime, snowing, and he was jumping on rooftops.

It's because the site doesn't work for US. I thought you stayed in the desh, but you apparently live in US. :P

Honestly annoying when people link to MangaReader and I can't see the page, especially in debates. :<

Yea, I live in the US, but I am from India, if thats what you meant, I am not from Bangladesh.

Yea, it is inconveineint but what I do is change the text in the link from reader.net to panda.com... most cases works fine, except embedded images.

Anyways, that image from Brooks is from the movie where he fights insects...

You should simply make an announcement banning mangareader links from being posted for discussions, when seemingly a quarter to a half of the members are from the us. Rehosting should always be the route, to evade any future hosting problems from the aggregator sites, that's how the smart fellas from GAF do it at least.

It is absolutely no hustle to save a picture, cut the important points/panel out, if even and simply pull the picture on a modern imagehoster like Minus. Takes like half a minute at most for the most lethargic people. It also helps to get to the heart of the argument/theory/problem.

Desh means country in Hindi, no? That's what I meant, country, not Bangladesh. I dunno if you speak Hindi though, I'm just presuming you do.

Oh, I didn't consider changing the text. Thanks!

Can't do that. And I think that decision lies with the reds. All we can do is say the MR links don't work for United States.

People are too lazy to rehost though. :<

Schabrak · Oct 10, 2013

I know, it's a plea to the big reds and an idea to evade "those" posts. :P

Enough time to read threads and post, but too lazy for some actual effort... It's sad as it's as easy as never before.

Gonna add a picture fitting the current chapter to somehow keep it at OP.

k-dom · Oct 10, 2013

Mangareader links give the chapter and the page so it is not that difficult to find even if it doesn't work with a bit of context. Ban the site provides more inconvenience than advantage in my opinion.

Schabrak · Oct 10, 2013

The other aggregating sites have the same content though or am I mistaken something? Dunno why people often neglect the translation section of MH, it's so full of the needed text to base arguments on, but again too much work...

Yea, desh means country, i speak hindi, i grew up in mumbai, moved to US for studies and work 5 years ago.. I didnt know you spoke HIndi, fire nation flag is misleading :P

Oh, i just watch videos on youtube, i thought it was from this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-ZzaJlFbKc

But its not, i was wrong.

hoeru · Oct 10, 2013

*sigh* It's from No.10 Strong World.

I use the translation section myself when I need to. They can be useful when debating something, especially for Naruto. Better than relying on manga, especially if it's Sleepyfans.

I speak just a little bit of Hindi, whatever I know I know from Bollywood. With its confusing Hindi grammar and all. Meh. Born and raised in the US though. \o/

Question to all: is there anything better in the manga than Luffy hitting that Tenryuubito? That's seriously one of my favorite panels ever, especially since the Tenryuubito are douchebags. Second is tied between Luffy putting his straw hat on Nami and saying he'd beat up Arlong for her, and her thanking him; and Robin sayin she wants to go with the crew when Luffy and the crew stood on top of the tower, after burning the World Government flag (or before?). Epic scenes.

hokageji · Oct 11, 2013

On the mangareader issue, it is managed by the same people/website company that runs mangapanda.

if you change the text on the URL from "reader.net" to "panda.com", the page will work for US residents.

The issue is a little difficult to handle when images are embedded, but it is still achievable in the same manner.

e.g.
MangaPanda image will not show up for US residents

But changing reader.net to panda.com in the hyperlink does

Oh, OK, bollywood for education and your grammar will be louder with overacting expressiosn, just kidding.

For me, the greatest moment is WB's death, that page! Not a scar of retreat. I had a big theory over how Luffy will help Ace escape and Ace will join the mugiwaras while WB cuts a deal with the WG and doesnt help Ace and stuff. This was way back during impel down arc and I didnt nkow how the 2nd best pirate could really leave a mark. But Oda narrated it well, made WB a great character and even though he last only one arc, his presence as a pirate was large.

Luffy punching the tenryuuubito was very well displayed in the anime. That is tied with the walk to Arlong park for me

M3J · Oct 11, 2013

No, you're right. <_< Sadly.

The punch was so awesome I even checked out a clip of it, because it was that awesome. I think that's the single most symbolic panel that represents so many people's desires.

hoeru · Oct 11, 2013

That scene was drawn by that scribble kid Tate who clearly messed the comical ascpect of that epic scene. Like all epic scenes he did.

That episode was wasted.

Schabrak · Oct 11, 2013

Nah it was as awesome as in eh... movie 6 Imo.

hoeru · Oct 12, 2013

Everything that Tate drew for One Piece anime after Skypiea was crap.

And for some reason, talking about Tate now wants me to see Enel reappear by being thrown back onto OPWORLD by one of Isshou's meteorites.
