8: Oh hell, I'm so guilty of this. It's not as bad as the first week it was out, but I'm still a little overly excited about it.
37: I don't think that anyone particularly likes or dislikes the character since he only pops up for like five minutes and there's really not much to go on. What people seem to actually dislike are the fangirls who seem to find him to be the most important/awesome character in the entire series even though he does nothing. All he's got going for him is a mildly interesting character design that people are all over.
42: Oh man, I hate when they do this too. I can see excusing an absolute absence of the mention of smoking at all, especially in the case of people who are exclusively familiar with dubbed versions, but I've seen many a fic (Usually pairing him up with Nami or Robin) in which one or both of them force him through "smoking is bad, mm'kay" procedures. It's just... Man I don't even know.
