Well not really going to the New World, but the anime has finally made it to the time-skip part. After the Straw Hat crew got split apart, they all took a two year break from being pirates to train and meet up back up at shabody archipelago.

Zoro Vs Sanji
You really cant predict the outcome of any fight and be right simply because, anything can happen during a fight. And when it comes down these two characters you're always going to have someone playing favorites. As you can see Zoro obviously has the advantage due to his fighting style using swords. If Sanji throws a kick it can mean the end of his legs. They both have abnormal strength, speed, and stamina, but I would have to give the edge to Zoro since he has nothing better to do than train while Sanji is busy cooking. A way for Sanji to get the upper hand would be for him to hit key spots on Zoro. If Sanji could land deadly blows to Zoro's legs that could throw off Zoro's posture and affect his swinging ability, also slowing him down.
Zoro also has some mid-ranged techniques he can use to his advantage. Of course Sanji wouldn't have a problem dodging but it can be used to slow him down.
Although I can see Sanji somehow gaining a victory over Zoro, it would a be tough fight for him to win as Zoro has many advantages over him. Like I first said, anything can happen in a fight...but if you ask me..I would go with Zoro.

Usopp Is Weak
His role as the sniper fits his personality and style. He's not great with confrontation, and would feel safer at a distance, much like a sniper would. Even early on in the series at times he has shown great courage to fight and push himself. Usopp might act like a coward, but when it comes to sniping he is to be feared as his aim is deadly. For his age Usopp can be considered a prodigy. For instance the dual with Daddy while the Straw Hat crew were in Louge Town, Usopp shows how excellent his aim was while he was under pressure, nervously doubting himself. His great sniper skills makes up for his lack of Physical strength, and his strategic skills are pretty impressive as he shows them during his fight with Luffy. You would have to be ignorantly blind to go around calling Usopp weak and useless, definitely the most underestimated character.
Love For One Piece
Anime, Manga, One Piece. Where do I start? I love all three. I grew up watching "cartoons" on Cartoon Network, more specifically Toonami. Everyday I would come home from school and watch Dragon Ball Z at 4:00pm as a kid. At the time I was oblivious to the term Anime, or even Manga, it was just cartoons. It wasn't until I moved overseas to Japan where I became familiar with Anime and Manga. My first love was the Anime called Naruto. I had a connection with the main character, Naruto, who basically was an outcast, in which I felt same way in middle school. Coincidentally our ages where the same, 13 years old. Feelings of loneliness and hatred for the world are all the feelings the main character felt. Its crazy how your life can be so similar to a "comic book", without all the super powers.
So as time passed and I entered high school I began to find myself, realizing who I am, still an outcast, I continued to read Manga at the age of 16. I remember seeing a certain Manga showing a character smiling big and wearing a straw hat. Monkey D. Luffy was that character, but for some strange reason i started reading the Manga, and couldn't get into it. I never really gave it a chance until a year later, and fell in love with the One Piece, and coincidentally again I was the same age as the main character, Monkey D. Luffy. If you don't already know about One Piece, It's basically about pirates going on a grand adventure across the world searching for the great treasure left behind by the late Pirate King, Gol D. Roger. Simple right? No! ... But its not that complex either. With a lot of different personalities, emotions, comedy, good, evil, and loyalty within One piece, I have to say it is the greatest Anime/Manga in the world. I cant help but love all the characters in it, from the good guys to the bad guys. The plot is simply amazing, you would seriously wish real life was the same as the One Piece world. The thing i love most about One piece is the bond and the loyalty between the crew, or Nakama. Who wouldn't want to have good friends they could trust, depend on, and 100% know they have your back? In these times it's really hard to find relationships like that. Early in the Manga you'll notice how Luffy cares deeply for his nakama, it's kind of how Goku from Dragon Ball Z would get when you mess with his friends.
The comedy in One Piece cracks me up every time. It's like you're there with them as friends, having a good time and a good laugh. If you have a good sense of humor like me I'm sure you'll be laughing a lot. From name calling, to no common sense antics, it's a great to balance to the more serious side of the Manga.
When the pressure is on and the Straw Hat Pirates ( Mugiwara Kaizoku) have to fight, the tone can change a whole lot. Just like real life, many of us have problems and obstacles we must overcome. From reading and watching One Piece I've learned to never give up, and it constantly reminds me of just that. If you're into Japanese Manga or Anime and never read One Piece, i would highly recommend you start now, there are currently 490 episodes and 618 chapters. One word to describe One Piece, would simply be EPIC

One of The Most Epic Moments In One Piece
To me this has to be one of the most epic moments in the history of One Piece. After the fight with Shichibukai - Bartholomew Kuma , Zoro trades his life for the life of his crew mates, by transferring all of the mental, physical pain and fatigue from Luffy's body into his own. Any normal human being would have died from this but being as Roronoa Zoro isn't your average everyday swordsman, he survives.
Zoro is easily one of the greatest Characters in One Piece.

The Man Who Will Become Pirate King!
This is the very first episode of one piece. Although I am all caught up in the Anime I will start from the first episode and blog my way up to the current episodes. From the beginning of the series you'll notice the artwork is old as this Anime premiered in Japan the year 1999.
One Piece Episode 001 starts off with two sailor reeling in a barrel. As they reel it in one of them notices a pirate flag and ship which starts to attack them. 2 minutes into the episode 3 key characters are shown already before the main character. After a few cannonballs from the are shot at the cruise ship, the pirates pull up next to the cruise ship in order to board it.
While under attack there is a orange hair girl (Nami) sneaking around looking for something, while everyone else aboard the ship panics in fear of the pirates. After a boy on the pirate ship was scolded by the captain, a very fat short and round ugly looking female pirate, he is found rolling the barrel the first two sailors found. The boy Coby who is inside the lower decks of the ship, is confronted by his crew mates as they ask if he is up to doing nothing again, and gets the barrel taken away from him. As they are about to open the barrel to see what's inside Monkey D. Luffy pops out and yells, provoking the pirates to attack him. It ends with Luffy knocking out 2 out 3 pirates out. He then tells the third pirate his name as the pirate runs away in fear to tell his captain.
After Luffy and Coby talk about what happened before they met and explaining they're dreams, the captain of the pirate ship, Alvida, interrupts them by attacking Luffy. The fight then moves to the upper decks where Coby gets the courage to talk back to his evil captain who forced him to be a slave on the ship. While this is going on, Nami slips out of a room and sneaks away with treasure she stole. After Coby mouths off to Alvida she tries to strike him down with her spiked club, but is protected by Luffy in which the attack does not affect him. Luffy then retaliates with his signature move " Gomu Gomu No Pistol " and sends Alvida flying into the sky. After their little fight the marines show up and attack the ship. Luffy being a pirate decides to escape and make a run for it using a boat he demanded they give coby. Him and Coby jump into the small boat to find Nami already in it trying to make an escape...Later it shows them talking about the Pirate Hunter as Luffy is interested in making him join his crew.

I enjoyed this episode very much as I do every episode..except some fillers. I have a deep hatred for filler episodes of any anime haha. I also think the moral of this episode is to always be courageous and follow your dreams and goals. Never think or say it's impossible because if you put your mind to it, anything is possible.
