Ep 199 is great fun. Best filler arc ever, if only for the chance to see everyone in Marine duds. Able seaman Usopp is adorable (recent manga events, plus my latest fic-writing, are conspiring to make me such an Usopp fangirl).

And here's a bit of OP, er, fic. I apologize in advance, I couldn't help it. Dedicated to all females, because. --All guys, you can bail now. Or don't say I didn't warn you.

I'm surprised at how much I'm enjoying the current story arc, given Toei's past track record with fillers, I really like that chess playing, conniving Commander what's his name, first time that they gave an original character enough charisma to be on par with our beloved troupe of pirate misfits.

And speaking of which, bwahahahaha, Nami's wrong-time-of-the-month, man, just trying to imagine Usopp trying to explain to Luffy how babies came to this world is sheer hilarity beyond belief,

By the way, have you tried movie 5? From the first five minute look of it I'm afraid to go beyond that point, movie 3 was traumatizing enough, I really don't want to risk it again.

Yah, Commander Jonah is pretty cool...follows in the great One Piece antagonist tradition by being eccentric but not stupid.

glad you liked the fic bit! ^^ and movie 5, well...it had its moments, but then I was amused by Movie 3, too. Fillers and movies I sort of consider A/Us anyway, so...(Movie 5 did tick me off 'cuz of false advertising - the Japanese ads said "Luffy vs Zoro", and then there was no Luffy vs Zoro! Sigh...)
