That would be cool, but on a real island not an artificial one! Cool

Gah I entered this thread thinking there would be One Piece discussion. I don't want to have to worry about Naruto bashing/spoilers Sad

One Piece is better but Naruto is still awesome, let's leave it at that.

Naruto was awesome, now it has too much fanservice mixed with good moments (and great battles, sometimes).

This isn't bashing, it's the plain, simple reality. Sad

But people apparently prefer to think as "bashing" any analysis which goes behind comments like "that's cool" and other simple adjectives.

But i agree that we went quite OT from the main topic, by now. ^^'

A One Piece theme park like the Harry Potter one would be pretty awesome. Get to it, Florida.

If you don't call the latest battle against spoiler[Kabuto] fanservice, I don't know how you could call it considering the characters who are fighting against him (spoiler[Kabuto]'s design is awesome, by the way, too bad the overall Naruto story isn't anymore, and I'm sad it isn't therefore I am not bashing anything, since I still like Naruto after all... I'm not a blind fan, that's all). Confused

Anyway, back on topic: I wonder if OP will keep selling more and more with each new volume: apparently, Oda is not only keeping most of his old fans' interest, but gaining many new readers over the time. Smile
