    One Piece 316

    Episode 316 HD - DeSiBoY

    I have no idea if they're any good, or how they do compared to VP. Anyways, just letting you guy's know that a subbed HD encode was released.

    It's actually quite good from what I can tell. I can't say much of the translation because of my lacking Japanese skills but the typesetting, font, and karoke are well done.

    Interesting. Pretty much a whole episode dedicated to characters somewhere else.

    I guess Blackbeard is pretty tough if Shanks thinks he's scary.

    I ALMOST thought they were gonna reveal bounties but then they didn't. Sadness...

    Yep, can't wait for the bounties to be revealed. I was watching the Vegapunk subs, and I didn't quite understand the bit about Blackbeard. Does Shanks not want Ace to fight Blackbeard so that he can fight Blackbeard himself?

    Also, Shanks is from West Blue? Thats a surprise to me, I thought he came from East Blue like Luffy.

    It seems as though the next ep if going to be a filler. I hope its a one off, and they don't start a whole arc of them just now.

    I think Shanks doesn't want Ace fighting Blackbeard because Blackbeard is too dangerous, in turn causing Ace a possibility of losing his life.

    Wonder if those flashes at the end were mug shots for new bounty posters, though I wonder if Usopp will get a bounty or Sogeking. And yea it seems like Shanks is the only person that knows how strong Blackbeard is since he hid his true strength on Whitebeards crew by not making himself standout and taking a Commander spot.

    Also besides Ace, Whitebeards crew doesn't look that cool .

    Oh man I missed out that the new eps get posted :P

    Regarding Blackbeard it seemed more like that Shanks just thought that it was the wrong time to confront him rather than him being super strong. Shanks probably has some grande plan to bring down the establishment.

    I watched the ep again and I got the impression that Shanks didn't want Ace to fight Blackbeard simply because he, that is Shanks, wanted to him himself to get back at Blackbeard for giving him that wound over his eye. Plus, from my vague recollection of the earlier parts of the series, if Blackbeard was shown I don't remember him being really strong.

    His power doesnt have to be directly shown for us to know that he is super strong. From what has been seen so far, he is like an evil, far more experienced version of Luffy. Also, after this episode, we now know that he might even have the same goal (i.e reaching the top of the pirate hierarchy). He is a D with big ambitions.
    Also, if his similarity to Luffy isnt enough of a testament to his strength, we have already seen what two of his crew members are capable of. Van Auger can shoot down targets from miles away and Lafite was able to get into the World Government headquarters undetected to propose blackbeard's name as a shichibukai. If the crew is that strong, then one can only imagine what the captain is like. Oh and lastly, the Blackbeard Pirates single handedly invaded Drum Island which forced Wapol to abandon his country and run away.

    Crap what episodes did all this happen in? Its been a long time since I watched them, would be good to get a recap.

    Plus, I've noticed the D. name banded around the place... do we know what its significance is yet?

    I think all this happened just before skypea or was it just after.


    We still dont know the significance of the word 'D'.

    In Oda's SBS questions and answer corner, he was asked what the D in Luffy's name stood for. Oda just replied to read it as a D for now and that he would reveal the truth behind it in time.This was the first time Luffy's 'D' was brought up, as well as Oda's first hint towards a bigger mystery.

    Shanks cares about Ace the same way he cares about Luffy. Remember, Ace hadn't left the village yet when Shanks visited Luffy. So they've probably met. Shanks doesn't think Ace is strong enough to fight Blackbeard yet.

    Regarding Blackbeard's strength, Shanks already confirmed it. I doubt Shanks wants revenge -- he had those scars since before he met Luffy. On the other hand, Blackbeard would have only become stronger since then. So, since he cares about Ace, he basically told Whitebeard to do his own dirty work.

    (Blackbeard is the guy who talked to Luffy about pirates' dreams on Jaya, among whose nakama are a better sniper than Ussop, a drunk doctor who gives people exploding apples, a champion wrestler, and a weird clown dude who snuck into a Shichibukai meeting in Mariejoa to nominate Blackbeard for Crocodile's old position. Blackbeard also went after Luffy's head, but conflict was avoided since Going Merry reached the Knock Up Stream before a fight broke out.)
