How come there is no One Piece subforum? That anime is really well known, and could even stand up to Naruto. Not Bleach, though . Anyways i just started watching it yesterday, and i really love it!

I guess this forum is just pirate shy LOL
Well, despite it being one of the most popular and best selling anime/manga in Japan, it never really caught on in America, and as a site, most of our visitors are from the States.
You can certainly suggest one in the Site Problems/Questions forum. The sub-forum would go in Supernatural, and I guess I could vouch for it's popularity and so forth.

Thanks for your answer, Xero XIII, i'm getting on it.
There are threads on it, but the thing I noticed was that all of them ask "What's so great about One Piece?" That's a sign of lacking popularity.
Trust me, One Piece is not lacking popularity. Now i'm not saying that just because i started watching it recently, and like it, but what got me want to watch it is how people say it Owns Naruto, and some of them even say Bleach. The reviews are really good for it, and give it a high grade. I always research the Anime i'm interested in, before i watch it.
To be fair there is no connection between Naruto or Bleach, only fame. You can't compare shinigami, ninjas, & pirates so that's an unfair comparison.
Comparing it to Space Pirate Mito or Galaxy Express 999 is fair game.
I wasn't the one comparing them. I'm only on episode 6, lol. I'm just saying how it's not unpopular, people actually do watch it. Lots of people. I'm saying it's on the same level of Fame as Naruto and Bleach.
It's true that in America, OP is not as popular as Naruto and Bleach, however the recent Funi rescue apparently got a lot of people's attention. Ratings went up once the Funi dub started on Cartoon Network (which makes me suspect that since CN cancelled it later, that CN really does prefer Western animation), and for the 1st half of 2008, One Piece was #13 in DVD sales. And with more DVDs on the way (set 3 comes out this month, 4 in March), it's going to eventually attract people's attention (for example, it's hard not to notice Naruto or Death Note on an anime DVD aisle considering how much space they take up).
Also, look at some of the sub-forums, several of them are 26-episode series that arguably don't need one anymore. Sure, Vandread discussions would be worthwhile while it was being released in Japan and then later in America, but I think that ship has sailed.
