One Piece Addiction; More addictive than Drugs! :S

I find myself watching many episodes of One Piece at a time! Here's how my One Piece system works - Download a batch > Watch that batch while downloading another batch > Repeat.
I usually watch 3-4 episodes of One Piece and never one. I don't know why but this always happens with long series. When I was catching up on Naruto episodes, I did this as well. I also found that One Piece episodes seem too short! Like they say: "Time flies by when you're having fun." If might also be because they do a summary of the Arc at the beginning of every episode. It really pisses me off since it takes up 3 minutes of the episode...
Post your One Piece addiction story here!
<edit> Also, I listened to Hikari E at the begining of EVERY episode so far. The only other anime that I did that for was Air(Bird's Poem is so good!).

um kinda did the same thing you are doing right now forbidden when i was trying to catch up although when i started to download before i found KF i used to get alot of the dreded HK suds that was always amusing. i did the same thing with the manga but worse since i didnt have to wait for anything to download. i lost many night of sleep catching up in the manga. all in all my first summer with one piece= little sleep. now the second i find out there is a episode or new chapter out i go get it and sometimes if i know the reales of a new episode is coming i will stay up to downlaod it (all episodes are released at midnight).

I honestly don't understand the obsession with Hikari E... I mean, it's good, but personally, I prefer the 5th intro Kokoro no Chizu, and We Are! over it. Maybe Believe, too. I like Believe's introduction (the little thing that they say before they start playing the actual song, like the bit about Gold Roger when they're using We Are!) a lot more...

Um... Well... when I'm in the middle of a story arc in the One Piece manga (I just finished the Alabasta arc and now I'm taking a break from it) I'll download like 20 new chapters at a time, then read them all. I spent most of an afternoon/evening reading the final battles of the Alabasta arc, though I've no idea of the exact time involved.

I am struggling to keep up with my obsession.
Only because the subs are taking so long. Even with broadband, a Pent. 4 and 1G of Ram it takes 5 days here. ARG!
Can anyone recomend a fast client?
At least it's worth the wait...
I'll get there.

That's what I do with DBZ... it's probably because you can't stand to limit yourself to just half an hour at a time when there's so much of it just sitting there waiting for you.

You have to, really, though, to catch up.
I've felt this way before. The world goes deafeningly silent. I hear my heartbeat thundering in my ears. This must truly be... the brink of death.

I hear it. The breath of his steel. A katana follows will...

All that's left... is to see if I truly have the power to cut steel.

I like Believe's introduction (the little thing that they say before they start playing the actual song, like the bit about Gold Roger when they're using We Are!) a lot more...

Why? Let me explain why: I usually like a song for either the rhythm or the lyrics.
For example: Evangelion's Opening song: "Cruel Angel's Revelation". It has a catchy beat but the lyrics aren't so good. When I hear a song with with good rhythm, I'm instantly attracted and since I don't understand japanese, I don't really care about the lyrics enough to read it.
Example2: Air TV's opening song: "Tori no Uta"(Bird's Poem). The song has good rhythm AND lyrics (I actually read lyrics but only for shows I like)

Now: "Hikari E" also has a catchy beat so I like to listen to it. I liked Believe but I didn't like the "Believe in wonderlannnnnnddd!" part of the song. For We Are, I just though that Hikari E was better imo that's all. I didn't hear the 5th intro yet so I don't know.
