Spoiling message of spoils

I mean, I don't mind spoilers in One Piece cuz I'm up-to-date with it... but if it's an anime I haven't watched I wouldn't like it to be spoiled :<

We didn't say anything that would spoil the plot. Anybody who doesn't know what a log pose is won't find out until it's introduced in the anime anyway.

That's true ^^

Ah how naive that you think there would be spare log poses/people nice enough to give them away sitting around and the end of the Grand Line.

Yeah, there's nothing specifically spoilerous really, but yes, that is something to keep in mind.

I'm sure just as conveniently as none of the bad guys got killed in the war a log pose would just miraculously just show up out of nowhere for them.

Can anyone tell me why anime comes on so late at night? In Japan, SAO premieres at midnight. I don't think I'd stay up so late to watch it.

Enter to the right?

... You mean, from the North or West Seas?

The Log Pose would point the same way, but people entering from those seas wouldn't need to get past the Red Line mountain, just get to the point where there's no Calm Belt and get around it.

They also didn't have a compass before entering the grand line.

The hell would they want it for? There's no magnetic force fucking up normal compasses in the Four Seas, and the entry through the Red Line is an UPWARD CURRENT. You don't need direction if the water is freaking moving your ship at full speed.

It depends on the show I'm sure. Just like in the west they have blocks of programming for certain types of shows (the stereotypical soap operas during the day, dramas in the evening, movies at night, late night variety shows etc) though I don't know what theirs would correspond to offhand.

At a guess shows aimed at students would probably air late to facilitate evening studying.

Anime has higher age ratings then cartoons, no? With blood, strong language and cartoon violence the rating is probably over 16 at least so it wouldn't be allowed to air during the day.

Also, anime is not that popular, other then the mainstream titles, so they won't air it during prime time. Other then Pokemon, Naruto, One Piece etc. which are "safe". All the other niched anime is aimed at otakus and the like so the viewing won't be large, hence them throwing it at the late hours.

Gintama has a tendency to erupt into complete bloodbaths every once in a while, but I believe they said it's a 6 o'clock show.

Yeah, they did receive plenty of complaints though. Partly because of that they lost the timeslot for the second season and it was aired at a less ''mainstream'' hour.
