I soooooo love this series! I think I stopped watching the anime version before Brook's flashback on Laboon aired. I did continue reading the manga though! No other series has ever made me laugh and cry at the same time aside from this. One Piece is EPIC!

Anyway, I would like to share this panel from the latest chapter of the said manga:

LOL, Oda. Ahaha. This part made me fall off my seat while I was reading the current chapter. No, it's not what you're thinking. This panel is just a part of Hancock's daydream about Luffy. Ahahaha! orz... whenever I see this panel, it reminded me how heated the debate was about three weeks ago about the spoiler posted on the net saying that Hancock fell in love with Luffy. A lot of those people who joined the conversation said that it's not Oda's style and everything. My stand? It's Oda's style to surprise us. And when the chappy came out.... LOL.... XDDD Really, Oda, you're amazing. XD Now, the whole lot's debating whether Hancock will be their new nakama or not (because of Hancock acquiring the "Love Sickness" and also this line: "...the previous Kuja Empresses died because they tried to suppress their feelings.") :3 Geez... online communities... >3>

Oh, I also decided  to watch the One Piece episodes I missed. And when I reached Episode 377 and when the opening kicked in... F*CK! Parang bakla yung kanta! NOTE: The "new" opening is a remix of the one Piece first opening song, We Are. But still >3> Parang bakla talaga. that's just my first impression, though. I guess I somehow got used to the song... not to mention that I loved the animation for the opening billboard. Want to hearwatch it? Here it is:

 

I'm gonna go watch Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae now... :3
