So much awesome has been going on in One Piece, and the series is only half way thru, so years of discussion left. To me personally, my usual manga's have been a let down lately, Bleach has been average, Naruto taking steps back, and HunterxHunter...bleh. Yet One Piece is kicking so much ass, but no place to talk about it. So sorry for the long intro, but my point is this manga/anime needs it's own thread, and it was hinted in the Bleach thread I should go ahead and start it up.

So to start off with, wanted to mention Ace's death a few manga's back. I liked Ace, but thought the way Oda wrote it, was great. We're led to believe Ace is going to live, they fight forever to get to him, he's free and heading back to the ship, then *BAM* fist thru his chest. I did NOT see it coming, and was waiting for him to live thru it. Then Whitebeard dies too just this last manga, but in such a kickass and awesome way, still on his feet after losing half his face and getting all of those wounds.
It's hard to tell where the manga's going. However I was very, very pleased OP did not take the usual manga way out and have Luffy go Super Saiyin. He went into a state of shock like a normal person and had to be carried out instead of going berserk at some new power level.
Also like where the recent manga left off. Whitebeard's inner monologue hinted that Gol D. Roger hinted what the 'D' meant, and what One Piece is. My guess is it's a warship or something, something strong enough to take on the entire world government. It could also be the secret behind the devil's fruit, maybe the person who finds it can become pirate king because of the power up it can give. Either way I really like where it's all headed, and think this will lead to a more mature Luffy, and can't wait to see all the Straw Hats find eachother again.
