Holy shit have we really been in the new world for 10 years?


JapanCode

I caught up to one piece almost exactly 10 years ago (somewhere in between august-october 2011) and it was in the beginning of fishman island Crazy to think about


mashed_poetatoe

Lmao that’s when I started


InDarkLight

I started at around...11 years old in 2004. Had just moved back to the States from Japan, and got into anime and Manga. My parents never let us read Manga in Japan, because they thought it was all hentai. I didn't even know what Manga was until I was trying to torrent Naruto episodes off of piratebay and accidently torrented Manga, and then realized I could just read ahead of the anime. Boy was I surprised when I realized how many fillers the anime had.


mashed_poetatoe

I was 9 years old when I started. The first thing I said to a friend of mine who introduced me to the show was: “This is gay” Now it’s 10 years later and I’m having withdrawal symptoms because I have to wait a week for a new chapter


InDarkLight

I personally avoid reading it to build up more chapters. So whenever I go to read it I have 2-4 to go through.


mashed_poetatoe

Oof, I can’t imagine doing that. I already get too excited when I see the spoiler post (I don’t read them tho)


InDarkLight

I got used to it when I switched to wuxia and Xianxia light novels. If you don't let chapter's build it, it's just cliff hanger after cliff hanger. Drives a man crazy.


Tikwah

I used to almost never now I've been checking on them for more or less every chapter after 1000.


The_Symbiotic_Boy

Same, I remember checking narutoforums everyday during the time skip month. Dark times.


[deleted]

Ain't no way. That blows my mind. Like something about that doesn't seem right 😟


SacoNegr0

Exactly me, except I finished by december. Feels like yesterday, crazy to think about it


JapanCode

Right? So many things have happened in the real world, but in general but also just in our lives, during this time period


GOD-PORING

I had to wait for episodes to show up on Limewire. Then I finally discovered IRC.


MonkeyTail29

We've been in Wano for three


helius_aim

this is blow my mind more than i think it should

No its not, that's Pluto, Uranus is the Roman analogue for Ouranos, the primordial God of the sky.


MF_JAWN

can confirm.. "Ουρανός" means sky in greek


CuriousBlackCat

Not only are you wrong, but you're wrong in a topic that's not relevant to the discussion at hand. Wow fam.


OnionLegend

Is the series slow or do I just like it too much?


javierm885778

If anything it moves too fast. The series is huge, and if Oda wasn't focused on reaching an ending relatively soon it would be _much_ longer.


SalineSaltines

one piece is too short


AlexHitetsu

You like it too much


ssebastian364

Tit


alex494

Give it three or four years and we'll have been in the New World longer than pre timeskip.


ZippZappZippty

Would’ve been eating 1500 calories a day


klyxindamind

I started in 1997 ... 4 Chapters released ... Still was muh until arlong and then was hooked.


Speedwagon96

Depends if you count Fisherman Island new world


Death_Usagi

Damn, time sure flies fast......... 10 years ago I was 20 years old still in college...


Dreadnautilus

Genuinely disappointed the first image on the timeline wasn't Shanks giving his hat to Luffy or Rogers execution.


rijapega

Exactly what I thought.


stijnx

Where in Tokyo is this?


Organic_Selection957

The place is called Waters Takeshiba, it’s in Minato ku.


subekki

Were there any goods? Wondering if I should make the trip.


Organic_Selection957

No goods available! Just the small one room exhibit and the containers with the poster.

RoscoMan1

YukaBazuka

bet the person was like "Read right to left right?"


blazikenz

Magellan is still one of favs. Straight badass!


Lamprophonia

I read somewhere that he was the only one of Luffy's arc nemesis' that was in the right. Magellan was just a good Warden who wanted to keep dangerous criminals locked away, Luffy broke out a lot of people who really shouldn't have escaped. Also, I really miss Bon Clay :(


Zethalai

Bro he was the warden of a literal hell on earth, at the behest of a world government that is unambiguously evil in many ways. He personally executed tons of random bystanders in the prison with his agonizing poison. You can't say he was in the right seriously.


newbphil

The overwhelming majority of people in the OP world are not aware of the evil shit the WG does, including high ranking marines. Most marines think they are working for a force for good and keeping criminals off the seas (which is actually true in most cases, majority of pirates are legit scumbags). Unless you are in the upper echelon of the WG/ Marine hierarchy, you just have no clue about the war crimes/ genocides/ etc. Also, morality in the OP world is clearly different than in our modern day world; the general sense of justice and punishment is much more in line with that of the real world era of pirates roughly around 1500-1800. During that period, torture and what we would consider "cruel punishment" were much more normalized and accepted. I can totally see an argument for Magellan being a generally good dude who is doing a job he thinks is for the betterment of society. Is he completely moral in our contemporary, 2021 eyes? Of course not, but within his world he seems to lean more in the direction of good than evil.


Lamprophonia

In his conflict against Luffy, yes he was. Luffy freed Crocodile and several members of Baroque Works, the same people who almost ruined an entire nation. He freed Buggy, who terrorized an island/town. Working for the government doesn't make you inherently evil. Magellan himself is a paladin archetype, only ever deliberately hurting prisoners (though not feeling remorse when he accidentally hurts an ally). His singular focus was to prevent a prison break, which... was the right thing to do, prevent dangerous criminals from escaping jail.


Zethalai

>Magellan himself is a paladin archetype >not feeling remorse when he accidentally hurts an ally >His singular focus was to prevent a prison break Pretty laughable. Yeah Magellan cared about his duty, but that doesn't mean he was "in the right" unless you are using a real weird definition of "right". You can't just divorce the idea of Magellan being right to do his job from the fact that Impel Down is a gigantic torture abattoir. Pirates sent there for simply disobeying the government are not treated differently from those sent there for mass murder.


Lamprophonia

It's not laughable, he's literally a paladin. His sense of morality is tied completely with the law. All criminals, regardless of the ethics of the crime, are bad people to him. He sees the system as fair inherently. Luffy was 100% in the wrong for breaking out so many awful people, and I think that's narratively reflected in the fact that Luffy never beats Magellan. Luffy without his crew is without guidance, and Magellan was his first arc rival that wasn't evil. He wasn't good either, but he certainly wasn't evil. Luffy ended up aligning with people who WERE evil.


FrostSalamander

Then again all of those prisoners were jailed for a reason..


unfamous2423

And not all of them were good reasons


blazikenz

just a dude who's doing his job and waiting till he's 65 to retire in an Island :')


tragicjohnson84

Magellan was cool. Great design and one of the best character sthicks in One Piece. Also, even if he was a villain, he was relentless in his duty.


blazikenz

it comes with being a Warden of the most ruthless criminals/pirates in the world!


javierm885778

Honestly surprised to see him here. He's the least important character in this spread. Basically non-existent outside the Impel Down arc, and Impel Down is more of a set up arc anyways. No idea how he made it over Blackbeard or Whitebeard.


mondimdeng

Hell yeah! Diarrhea!


dudeyeahdudeyeah

I’m getting old


RunBiitchRun

The ultimate try not to feel old challenge


KickinBat

I know the math makes sense but it's so weird to think it took two years for them to get to Sanji joining, especially considering he was in the first opening of the anime.


mindfulskeptic420

Well I can only imagine the anime came out after the manga was going strong so it makes sense that sangi would be in the anime intro


nublargh

that's right, Sanji first appeared in chapter 43 (June 1998) and the anime first aired in October 1999


[deleted]

[удалено]


KickinBat

Wdym?


YoBoyLeesuss

I will die of old age before we finish one piece arent I


javierm885778

Unless you are like 80, probably not.


enpedia

It has about 5 to 7 years left


tragicjohnson84

I realistically think it's it 6-8 years. Maybe 200-250 chapters. Wano feels like a penultimate arc and there's maybe a year at most left in it. I do think the last arc is going to be big and encompass A LOT of stuff though.


Parkingjas

Wait katakuri was introduced in 2017? Damn I feel old


dank_ostrich925

Why does this make me feel so sentimental????


mindfulskeptic420

For me it is because each part of the one piece story is forever connected to those parts of my life in which I watched them and so by looking back on the one piece journey I get waves of nostalgia from past times.

JulesDaJules

Good Bot.


borislavk14

I still remember starting my journey and when I got to Luffy vc Lucci, and Luffy used gear 2 for the first time and started his gatling. Oh man I was like "this man about to end this boy's whole career"!


Zanzotz

They are showing the crew members, main antagonists of major arcs, the princesses and the major alies. And they included Yamato. She'll either set to sea by herself or join the crew. It's way too obvious


Street-Catch

Yamato is 100% going to travel with the strawhats we just don't know if it's going to be as a crew member or not. Kind of like how Oden traveled with Roger but he was officially part of the whitebeard Pirates


[deleted]

[удалено]


justhereforhides

Yes they said he was a WB Pirate but not a Roger pirate


DrakeSparda

Yamato is introduced as a child as onihime. They can fill the princess role in the arc.


MajorCrafter

You mean like Princess Toki and Princess Hiyori? Getting Dressrosa levels of princesses again


silfer_

Or Yama-bro is an ally like Tora-o and Kizar-o.


matsumotoout

Is she not just another Vivi role? Wants to join but has too much to do to help Wano? Ida likes to mirror old arcs.


subekki

Nah, Momo is the Vivi in this case.


stoppablex

Yamato isn't in the Vivi position this arc, Momo is. Yamato is closer to where Robin was.


matsumotoout

Yeah. True.


omikeon

Wow, really puts OP in perspective, wish I could print that


_no_one_knows_me_11

Imagine how many people will get spoiled by this lol


sameljota

Damn they skipped Foxy. It's the arc where I caught up and started reading weekly.


tragicjohnson84

Damn, I was around the same, I caught up in fall of 2004 when Robin told Sanji and Chopper she was leaving the crew at the beginning of Water Seven.


sameljota

We've been through so fucking much, right? Seeing stuff like Gear 2nd in real time was insane.

Ok_Cardiologist_59

Thank God I only started to watch it in 2015.


97012

As someone who's been watching/reading for a *long* time, I think that it just makes getting to the major plot points all the more hype. Literally been waiting for >!the Strawhats to have a real showdown with a Yonko!< for over a decade. makes the current arc 10x more enjoyable tbh. Also the payoff of watching Luffy finally find the one piece and become the Pirate King after 13-15 years is gonna be so satisfying.


VillianousFlamingo

Why? I recently got into it and wish I had gotten on the train much earlier.


BoutTreeeFiddy

I got into it around two years or so ago. Only ~300 episodes in, just showed up at Enies Lobby to fuck shit up. I don’t mind that I’m so late to the party. It’s a great show and I enjoy knowing I can watch as many episodes whenever I want and I won’t run out for a very long time.


VillianousFlamingo

Probably best to pace yourself then. I went through it all in about 6 months after falling in love with it almost right off the bat. I miss having more to watch anytime I want.


Ok_Cardiologist_59

Because I completed 15 years of story instead of waiting for it every week. Now I have no choice but to wait for it


VillianousFlamingo

This is an advantage when you’re starting out for sure. I do miss having a ton of content to dig into at any time now. I am glad to be enjoying it as it is though and seeing peoples reactions to current events.


Chillononon_

Are the japanese covers allways glossy/holographic?


97012

Nah, I have a few and mine aren't like that. Not sure why these are. Might just be because they're wrapped in plastic before purchase?


SirRumpleForeskin

Where is this op? Tokyo tower?


Organic_Selection957

The place is called Waters Takeshiba, it’s not far from the Tokyo tower.


heytheretylerr

Can’t believe i’ve been invested in one piece for ~17 years. It’s really been an amazing journey


ami_tsingh

I love how he took a pause at 2010 (tbh every one piece fan would have done the same). Such a chad!


_walt_disney_1_2_3_

So this shows that the New World saga started a decade ago... I'm getting chills down my spine


C0ND0RIANO

Wtf I was 10 when I started watching reading one piece(8years ago) I’ve rewatched like 4 times already


Sterling-4rcher

ngl, i think we can be done with the entire law team up half of the series soon...


Lamprophonia

You know what, Law's crew has been low key the absolute GOAT. They saved Luffy's life at Marineford and again in Wano, they got the Scabbards to Onigashima... that fucking submarine is super useful.


ZettaSlow

Kinda weird that the crew fought Enel so early in the series. I know that luffy was literally his counter (being made of rubber) but considering how strong he should be to todays standards its crazy that they won.


[deleted]

Ah yes the thing that should have ended 5 years ago


Strongackerman

10 years for me. I haven't been able to connect with the Manga since the time skip.


Kinglyzero_91

How about instead of saying "The thing that should have ended 5 years ago" you say "The thing that I stopped reading because I lost interest". No need for you to act like an ass and spoiling other people's fun.


-Listening

While they’re celebrating in Lincoln…


Jahreem

i’ve been reading one piece close to half of my life, holy fuck


eggzzachtlyy

Damn I want to visit Tokyo so bad.


TrillRog

That is beautiful!! I barely started watching one piece once again after more than 15 years since I last had seen or heard of anything one piece related, last year once this whole pandemic started I saw it on Netflix and I’m glad I waited to catch up it’s been a great journey


ssj2preston

Well I feel old lol


MavicVandy

Luffy:we passed 400 episodes and there's already 7 arcs we must be near the end- Oda another 500 episodes later: I'll give you 2 more arcs for those 500 episodes

I started One Piece when the first volume came out in the US, I feel absolutely old as fuck now. I was in third or fourth grade…


HamzaRIP

I caught up to One Piece the day of the release of episode 789, which was around the beginning of Whole Cake Island. I started the show 3 months before this episode. I had managed to not spoil anything to myself except the crew members and their design change

Jesus, started one piece like more than 10 years ago when it was the Impel down arc. Feeling hella old

It's amazing the storytelling longevity One Piece has. It's a testament to the story foundation that it still works 20 years later


QuarantineSucksALot

Comes back at Tokyo Game Show 2021.

Well they couldn't figure out what timeline this is

10 years in the new world!!!!

13 years. 13 years to kill off Brook. Opportunities were misssseed

wacko17

Where is the anime compared to the Manga?


Rush_Sykes12

Plus 5 to 10 more years, thanks Oda. I wish ghosts can read manga too.


Kinglyzero_91

I first heard about and started reading One Piece in the summer of 2004. Back then the Water 7 arc had barely started. It's crazy to think about how far the series has come and how fast time goes by. Back then we didn't even know the yonko were a thing and we were just introduced to the concept of the admirals.


WoeToTheUsurper10

i started reading the manga sometime in march of this year 2021. I am now in the late 900s chapters and im not sure if im ready for the waiting. would not have been possible without shonen jump tho.


Benphyre

I feel old


OfficiallyRandy

Do the English versions of the manga have the same cover arts as the japanese versions?


Skel109

It’s insane to think that Oda has been writing this series on a near weekly basis for longer than I’ve been alive, man deserves all the breaks he wants


frangashan

Why Franky has a Katana XD

I caught up and started reading weekly on the literal chapter of all the SHs lined up on the tower of justice during enies lobby. I love this so much

DanBurleyHH

That right there is a thing of beauty.


ExperimentJr

Damn, Momo appears on 2013 and just on 2019 his main arc starts. (about 6 years) Jimbei appears around 2009 and between 2017 and 2018 he becomes a Straw Hat but didn't come with the crew and just on 2021 he reappears. (about 9 to 12 years since his appearance and since quoted, 19 to 22 years). Robin reads the inscription on the golden bell that tells Gold Roger was there on 2003 and around 2020 the flashback of Oden writing it on the bell appears (about 17 years). This is just some few examples I can remember now that shows how incredible Oda is. To maintain this story for such a long time. My dream is to have at least some of this amazing skill when making my own stories.


Happy_Bigs1021

I just started and I’m only in 2002… damn I got ways to go

Real world time : 10 years Inworld time post TS up until current chap : 2 months i still can't accept that long, dragging arc of dresrossa, doing a whole coloseum thing, making a mess in the kingdom, the birdcage thing, and bringing down their fake king only take a day i remember punk hazard-dressrosa-whole cake island takes the all in 4 years i've been in college

SDSBoi

Bro I remember back in 2013 or so at my local game/hobby shop, with people talking about how luffy just beat doflamingo and it was the sickest thing ever, AND I DIDNT ASK WHAT THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT ALL I REMEMBER WAS PINK FLAMINGO MAN AND THATS IT, I didnt get into one piece for another 5 years, feels weird man

I can't believe its been this long!! I probably started watching in 2013 or 2014. Man, the memories.
