On my B'day and the aftermath =)

Last Sunday and last Monday were two good days. This was when on Sunday, I went over to my cousin's house up in Sydney with my dad, and was able to get every episode of One Piece up-to-date and other anime onto my external hard drive as well. Then at Monday midnight was when I got a lot of Happy B'day comments from a lot of friends, and then in the daytime, I went into the City to shop around before I went back home. While I was there, I was looking for some One Piece figurines and merchandise to buy, though I already knew what I was going to buy. I didn't go around a lot to search for anime stores, but I bought some figurines, similar to the mafia one I bought from before at the same store, Fever. Only this time, I not only bought Zoro, but Nami and Robin as well for a total of $20 bucks.

This is the recent photo that I have taken, only this time, I've got 5 now, and watching an episode as well lol So the characters in order are from left to right (though you may know by the appearance): Zoro, Robin, Luffy, Nami and Sanji.

When I got back home, I was very happy that I was able to get two things: Every One Piece episode up-to-date, and a few more OP mafia figurines as decorations. I just need Usopp and Chopper to finsh the collection, but that can wait, as long as they're still sold at the same store. The recent photos will be taken and uploaded soon. Also, I've been watching a lot of episodes recently, and have got around up to 334 or 335, and I must say that I'm loving the series so far. Heck, I like it better and more enjoyable than Naruto.

The story is great as I mentioned earlier, and also, to quote my cousin, One Piece is better, because there's always gonna be more new characters depending on how the story continues, no matter how far you get up in the manga, or the anime, and also the world in One Piece is very big with many different places. Naruto on the other hand is always with the same old characters, same place, different plots, in fact, a lot a filler arcs that are boring compared to the fillers within One Piece that can be time wasting, but very enjoyable and fun to watch.

Characterwise, I like One Piece better, because they can be funny, even in the serious moments. Luffy, for instance, can be a complete idiot, but he's always positive and humorous no matter what the situation is. Other characters like Zoro, Sanji and more are very impressive in their own way of doing things. I say "in their own way", because it's not about who they are, but what the characters do defines who they are (Batman Begins reference), and in my opinion, that's what One Piece has.

That's all for today and more thoughts will be coming soon. Stay tuned =)
