Anime: Fishman Island Arc - Episode 554

New anime, only at OnePieceOfficial.com. Be there, or be square, like Franky’s biceps.

First Thoughts
It is very exciting to see the first animated post-time skip fight.  Not only will the crew be able to truly show off their superior abilities, but Hody’s little declaration will not endear him to Luffy.
On a personal note, I have decided to read from chapter 610 through the current chapter in the manga. For this review however, I stopped reading when I reached the events of this episode. I am very excited to see the result of the several surprises I’ve read today, and animated to boot!

Show Me Your One Piece 2- Winners


After many hours of seclusion and consideration, the winners for Show Me Your One Piece 2 contest have been chosen. We saw many fine examples of people "showing off their One Piece" along with why they love it.

We heard tales of how One Piece touched them on a personal level while others simply said why they love the series so much. All were great entries which made it even harder to choose our winners. Still, only two people will win the One Piece: Season 4 Voyage 1 DVD set that everybody has been eyeing.

Question Corner: That Moment


That moment. The moment when you know that an anime is more than just good. The moment when you realized that anime you was something worth sticking with until the very last episode. That moment when you knew you were watching something epic. When does that moment happens depends on the individual. Sometimes it’s early on in a series. Other times it can be when you least expect it.

One Piece More: Is a UK Release Possible?


When One Piece was originally shown in the UK, it ran on the Toonami channel from Spring 2005 to the end of 2006. Although we continue to get the manga around the same time as the American releases, and get the occasional video game, the One Piece anime hasn't been seen for a very long time. However, Manga Entertainment—, the biggest Anime distributor in the UK—, has  recently posted a query on both Twitter and Facebook asking if UK anime fans want to see One Piece on DVD in our neck of the woods. See my thoughts after the jump.
