How is it even possible to get 442 episodes?

One Piece has been going at 1 ep per week pretty much solidly since it's Animoo started. So at 44 episods per year they're actually behind a bit.

It was at around this point in the Manga that Oda said he was about half-way finished with the One Piece story.

Yeah, what constantly impresses me about Oda is that he either that he plans and foreshadows important plot points way ahead of time, or he is really good at faking it.

Oda never forgets.

Never.


Apparantly he's had the core storyline done from start to finish from day 1 and has just had to flesh it out and actually mangaize it, although he has admitted it's taken longer than he originally expected it to as he's expanded the original story way beyond what he first visualized due to the unexpected popularity of the story.

There's also significant fan-theories about the fact that he deliberately brought back several minor characters from the past like Laboon as revenge for 4kids bastardizing his Animoo (4kids skipped the Laboon arc, which meant if they'd kept going when Brook turned up a bunch of American watchers would have been like "Wat") or, alternately, he does it just so he can sit there being smug while all his fans go HOLY SHIT.

Why you think I like One Piece?

Because it's like Homestuck if that's possible.  At least with the awesomeness.

Viral, he's called Viral. Remember him, he pulls a Chekhovs Boomerang in the second season and turns awesome.

You have discovered my one weakness, Vector. The Megaman 2 soundtrack.

I must look into this "JAM Project".

Dammit man, stop trying to ruin stuff for Toony.


And Viral is my favorite character, tying in with Kamina.

INUYASHA!

it's about a schoolgirl that finds a portal back to ancient china in the well at her home, and has to find some scattered parts of weird crystals that got scattered all over the earth when she accidentally shot a demon crow that was carrying it. she does this with the help of a slightly evil demon with dog ears who had a magic necklace thrown over him by a priestess so that he falls on his face whenever some-one says "sit". it makes sense in context.

My sister used to love that show and one of my friends still does.
I try my hardest to make her stop, but argh.

Yes, and this girl rips on me for watching Gurren Lagann.
LOGIC.
