Day 27

Colorspreads! I love 'em. I figure most fans love 'em and that, although it's hard to choose, I'm sure people prefer some to others. I know I do. And I feel like sharing. So here are some of my favorite Colorspreads, broken down largely by time frame.



My all-time favorite colorspread is this one:


I don't really have a good reason, just, it's so visually striking to me somehow. I actually have a poster-size version of this framed and hanging on the wall.

Of recent colorspreads, I like all of them as they've been very whimsical, but these two are really great. The first one, and the most recent one, is rather self-evident.



And this one just...feels so right somehow. It's also the current Sept/Oct picture for my 2010 calendar.



As for earlier works, I've always felt this one captured One Piece perfectly, plus it's just a really fun image.



This one, of the original four boys, is also just totally cute and fun.



Finally, I have always really liked Oda's original Colorspread. It's just so...pirate-y and fun.



What Colorspreads are your favorites?

Nah, I hadn't read your post - I decided yesterday that I wouldn't look at the f-list until after I'd gotten to read the new chapter. I have read chapter 598 now, but not yet read your post.

Ghkk. The rampant Nami-hatred over at AP Forums is infuriating. I hate how so many of those posters seem to see Nami as nothing but a weakling who just brings sucky fanservice to the table, rather than finding her an awesome and (in my eyes) quite unique character who may - or may not
- be belittled by Oda's ever-increasing tendency to use her for eye-candy and constantly skimpify her clothing. Of course, it doesn't help that many vocal Nami fans who tend to show up at AP Forums often do sound as if they mostly like her for her body... -_-
