So I have a dilemma, GDS

So, now that the long period of no crew members and a hiatus from the mangaka coming to an end, I'm probably gonna do a canon review and reapp this fella here:


Now, my dilemma is this: One Piece is about to experience a ~*~two year time skip~*~, when it begins again in (hopefully) a week, and everyone's going to finally be two years older.

SO. TIME SKIP USOPP OR NOT? THAT IS THE QUESTION.



Do I really want to play a man that would dare to wear a hat that way?

On the other hand: LOL soul patch it at least doesn't look as ridiculous as Sanji's latest face decoration

Pros to apping as time skip Usopp would be he's bigger, stronger, MAYBE braver, plus it would just save me the trouble of a canon update later. Also, a gorgeous massive cloud of hair.

Cons to it, obviously time skip hasn't come to fruition yet and so not sure if his personality is very different. I doubt it is, but all the same. Also, eventually replacing all icons. Also also, what the fuck is up with that hat.

Opinions? Who just wants to laugh at his hat?

Oh god do I want to know what happened to Sanji's face?

TOBY I AM SCARED
hackeralastair: (ack)

[personal profile] hackeralastair 2010-09-30 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
I DON'T KNOW I'M TOTALLY SCARED NOW this is why I've been scared of the timeskip, I don't want them to change I like them the way they are.

Except well, being stronger is cool.

FFFFF IT WON'T BE FOR LONG since I'm going to read it the second some website has it up.

nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnhhh I don't knoooowwwww....shit what happened to the others GOD NO I DON'T WANT IT SOB




idk okay to seriously answer your dilemma for a second, if the timeskip ends up being sadface and fail and their personalities change too much, you might regret it. Not that I want to see Fatsopp either because holy lord what was that...but I suppose I'm just more of a wait and see. I have no plans to canon-update Sanji unless another arc of story reveals some total awesome that I can't resist.

Admittedly Franky blew half his face off and had to fix it, but even so. I suppose it's possible these are "hey I just came from this weird island, man" outfits and they change/shave/haircut/put on a goddamn bra Nami geez in the next chapter. I will wait and see because I don't want to lose my new obsession so quickly.

.........okay ngl the idea of Usopp showing up the same age with the same facial hair (COPY ME MUCH?) is kind of hilarious. How long do you think you would wait to see how the characters change before apping him?

LMFAOFADIH oh Franky. So much love. Now, see, Sanji has no issue with Nami's shirtlessness. REALLY. Mr. Sob-she-put-a-tshirt-on.

I KNOW WE'RE FRIENDS AND ALL BUT GODDAMN. THAT'S MY LOOK STOP STEALING IT. The buffness is nice, though. Eeeeeeeeeeeee I will be watching and waiting with you to see what happens next. I agree, maybe two or three chapters and we should have an idea whether anyone's actually changed in their exile.

NO I WILL BECOME YOU ONE DAY SANJIKUN

His overalls also concern me. Mostly just because of that hat added on he looks like a complete red neck :| God I hope that hat gets lost in the next storyline, like how their clothes have been changing with each storyline.
notadartboard: (wargarble)

[personal profile] notadartboard 2010-09-30 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
YOU WILL NEVER BECOME ME WITH THAT FRO

It looks like he kinda went a little Elbaf with those overalls. But yeah, the hat has to go. As much as Sanji's ugly tie from the last arc had to go.
notadartboard: (super alarm)

....ohmygod Toby....




This is, of course, the best argument FOR doing it that I can see. :D

[personal profile] notadartboard 2010-09-30 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
NEVAR although Sanji's what...5'9/10? idk as long as Zoro doesn't end up taller than him I think he'll live.

I JUST READ IT

OH MY GOD SANJI WHAT THE HELL



...at least now this shoots down any rumors that his left eye was defective. Nope, he's just a fashionable guy.

I'm concerned about Zoro, though. :(

[identity profile] shawnspenstar.livejournal.com 2010-09-30 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL seriously that thing on his face

I love that his defect was just his eyebrow curls opposite. I had been hoping it would be something stupid like that, I had always assumed it was just exactly the same as his other eyebrow, but I like this way better.

Concerned about how he's gonna be or have you heard ~the rumor~

[personal profile] hackeralastair 2010-09-30 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
It really is hilarious, I'm breathing a sigh of relief (although it's going to take some getting used to and yes for god's sake man SHAVE you are not Mihawk).

...no I have heard no rumors so everything is concerning. I like him a lot, I don't want to think that he's lost an eye.

[identity profile] shawnspenstar.livejournal.com 2010-09-30 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL it IS Mihawk's beard, isn't it. What I hate most about it is that it's black so it looks like he dyes either his hair or his goatee, and the peach fuzz on his upper lip LOL if Oda would get rid of that I'd prolly like the chin bush better.

Nah, I don't think he lost an eye from what I've seen. I think the one big change I could tell is interesting for a fact I can't get into without spoiling what it is, but I wouldn't worry. If I'm wrong and there's an even bigger change like a missing eye I will be flabbergasted.
hackeralastair: (friendly smile)

[personal profile] hackeralastair 2010-09-30 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, see, the cover art was so unhelpful - I couldn't tell if that eye is injured or he just was winking and has a cool new scar. I like cool new scars. I MEAN LOOK AT LUFFY'S god it's even deeper than Zoro's.

I will trust you because you've been right in the last 24 hours so you're probably right again. :D HNNNNNNNRRRGGGHH man this is gonna be some interesting ride we got going on here.

[identity profile] shawnspenstar.livejournal.com 2010-09-30 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
OKAY SO YOU SAW THE COLORSPREAD, so I don't think he's lost his eye, I would think Oda would put an eyepatch of some sort on him if he had, because making Zoro go around with a gaping hole or something isn't cool, an eyepatch is. I think the scar is vaguely interesting for the reason people hate it, because it's like Rayleigh's. I might be fuzzy on my OP knowledge, but wasn't he Gol D Roger's first mate? I JUST THOUGH THE TIE IN WAS INTERESTING. The other rumor is that he's also missing his arm because of how it's position in the colorspread, which I think is even more ridic and would be more inclined to believe a missing eye than a missing arm.
notadartboard: (wait what)

[personal profile] notadartboard 2010-09-30 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
WHAAAT no he's not missing his arm. *facepalm* Good lord, fans, chill.

Yeah, Rayleigh is Roger's first mate, so it would be a nice parallel. I mean, it's not like other big-name pirates don't also have scars over their eyes. Look at Shanks. Which brings up another thought - Oda wouldn't have Zoro pretty much become Shanks, missing an arm AND having an eye-scar. Shanks has the market cornered on that look. Zoro needs to be his own character, not a copy of another.

[identity profile] shawnspenstar.livejournal.com 2010-09-30 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL seriously. Also it's just stupid for him to have only one arm considering his sword style. I saw someone suggest WELL MAYBE FRANKY WILL MAKE HIM A NEW ARM, which made me laugh a lot.
notadartboard: (big doofy grin)

[personal profile] notadartboard 2010-09-30 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I just noticed Franky's new appendages in the background HOLY SHIT MAN. Ahem.

Yeah, no, now that I looked at it again, people need to calm the hell down. That would imply that Zoro is missing THE SAME ARM AS SHANKS and no, Oda is smarter than that. And he does have all three swords so yeah, he wouldn't be able to use santoryuu if he lost one.

I mean granted, I play Geddoe who is missing an eye and still a fucking amazing swordsman, so I know Zoro is just badass enough that if he was half-blind, he'd train himself to be just as badass if not more with a lack of depth perception. But I kinda hope he didn't hurt it and that's just a scar.

...

*steals dat hat

as for your QUESTIONS I would DEFINITELY wait until you actually see what the timeskip brings. Because uh timeskips can fuck shit up.

[identity profile] liarboo.livejournal.com 2010-09-30 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
IT'S AN UGLY HAT WHY WOULD YOU EVER
AND I OWN AT LEAST 5 HIDEOUS HATS NO ONE WOULD EVER WEAR THIS IS SAYING A LOT

He seems pretty much Usoppu in what little we've seen so far, but yeah I'll wait a bit and see. MAYBE BY THREE CHAPTERS IT WILL BE CLEAR.
holeheart: (Default)

[personal profile] holeheart 2010-09-30 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
I THINK I KIND OF LIKE IT THOUGH. IT'S ALL FLOPPY.

YEAH I'd just give it a little time you don't want to be like my friend who canon updated her Ichigo to boring town not that I think Usopp-chan could ever be boring town
holeheart: (ooc: HAZ YATTA!!)

[personal profile] holeheart 2010-09-30 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
ALSO OMG USOPPU AGAIN YAAAAY!
themysciran: (your opinion is irrelevant)

[personal profile] themysciran 2010-09-30 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
I say wait, too! So, if you don't like what happens after the timeskip, you don't need to go through all the effort of canon updating and stuff.

[identity profile] liarboo.livejournal.com 2010-09-30 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
I read the spoiler translations and he did something that was ttly Usopp so I'm not that afraid, but yeah I'll prolly wait at least a couple chapters and see if he's still a cowardly little pirate--just a stronger one. THOUGH IN THE SPOILERS HE DIDN'T SEEM THAT CONCERNED WHEN THESE STUPID PIRATES WERE BEING MEAN but then again, they were really stupid pirates.
themysciran: (look at this smug face)

[personal profile] themysciran 2010-09-30 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
Pfft. Well yes, just read a few chapters! Unless you wanna play him RIGHT AWAY and then just canon update later?|D
