| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Geebus, Zoro's such a pimp. And Nami sure can hold her liquor. |
| Zoro is awesome. |
 |
| <3 Zoro and when he's in action. :D |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Zoro is awesome! i didn't think he could be cooler, but i was wrong. lol |
| I love seeing some great new characters and storylines. Looks like they might be in this town longer than I thought. |
| Zoro was so cool~ And the new arc looks to be interesting. |
 |
| Pretty badass how Zoro took out pretty much an entire town by himself. And, I guess this is the beginning of the Alabaster arc I've heard so much about. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| Sweet episode. Needed moar Sanji though. |
 |
| I think the only reason Zoro was being so playful is because he was bored XD. Also, he DID say he wanted to test out the his new swords :3 |
| I was fooled. Totally thought Zoro killed that Nun and kid. |
 |
| oh god zoro was AMAZING. <3 he is officially my favorite character of one piece heehee c: buuuut i wonder what the heck is the boss' secret and who the boss is! |

| Zoro is sucha n amazing swordsman :D |
 |
| Episode was almost completely unbelievable in a bad way. I get that this was to show how awesome Zoro is, but after seeing that, I'm supposed to believe that all of those swordsmen capture highly wanted pirates. Hellll no. They were looking like all the other pathetic background enemies. |

 |
| This should be interesting. |
  |
| Zoro is just awesome. xD and lol doesn't that Miss Valentine woman look a bit like Ino? |
| Damn, Zoro is badass |

They were looking like all the other pathetic background enemies. Who said they capture highly wanted pirates through force? (Or for that matter, who said they've ever caught a highly wanted pirate?) Luffy's bounty scared the crap out of all of them, which is why Mr. 8 was trying to deceive them rather than take them through force. I'm sure they've cleared out many wannabe pirates. |
| I like that bird-thing that the blue-haired lady was riding. Reminds me of Chocobos from FF. Zoro's fight was pretty cool. Still not sure how his cursed sword acts in battle, though... I hope we get more insight into that in the future. |

Great reply. |
| Awesome episode with Zoro as protagonist. ^^ |
| Zoro is way too awesome man |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Damn, this arc sure is interesting I can't wait to find out more about Miss Wednesday true identity |
 |
| I like how the definition says "Zoro is still sober enough" when rather he is super drunk but just so badass that he can still destroy dozens of people |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Nothing to see here folks, just based Zoro being awesome as usual :) Those grunts never had a chance. |
 |
| Every fight in this anime almost makes me regret starting the anime before the manga, I'm so conflicted as what to do... |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
From the scene above, to him mocking the bounty hunters on multiple occasions and even bullying the one on the ladder, to the scene where he snuck up on Igarappoi threatened his life and asked if only one grave will be good enough, this episode showed how freaking gar Zoro can be, as if we didn't know already. The one thing I did find quite questionable was the fact that in this nest of bounty hunters not one recognized pirate hunter Zoro, being a former famous bounty hunter himself. "Aren't those titles meaningless when it comes to fighting? The stronger one wins and that's that", is a line alike the line he said about the weight of the sword mattering that shows his character quite well. Also one last point, I'm pretty sure Ms.Wednesday referred to Zoro as Mr.Bushido. I've recently made the connection myself that Zoro feels like his gar and manliness comes from a conception of the Bushido Way. In the Hagakure it states a samurai should devote their life to their master, Luffy in this case, never stop practicing and striving to be their best, like his ambition to be a master swordsman. There is even a line where it states "Even if it seems certain you will lose, retaliate. Neither wisdom nor technique has a place in this. A real man doesn’t think of victory or defeat, he simply plunges recklessly towards an irrational death.", which reflects him well especially in a fight such as the Mihawk one, as well another that states "Even if there are a thousand men your plan should be to strike them all down and you will achieve the greater part of it.", this one perhaps a bit more paraphrased but very directly related to this episode itself. My point is his character feels different but very rooted in the Bushido Way, so hearing someone in the anime make that connection is interesting. |
| It was amazing of Zoro to cut down all of them alone. It's only fair that they get slashed by his swords in exchange for all the lives they took and memorialized in Cactus Rock. Miss Wednesday was actually Alabastan Royalty and that weird weapon guy was her bodyguard all along. |
 |
| Nothing to see here, just Zoro being a total badass and destroying everyone. So Igaram is a squad captain from Alabasta then? And the princess? Looks like I have to wait and see what Alabasta looks like in the next couple of arcs. Looks like it wasn't Zoro that tricked the bounty hunters into thinking he was asleep, but Nami as well, sneaky as usual, I guess she can hold her liquor quite well then? |
| Zoro on top form after all that sleep in the previous episode xD |
| Damn Zoro is strong. |
 |
| Lol, what kind of group are they? They don't even have any kind of teamwork. Or maybe Zoro's just too strong for them. Damn, Nami has high alcohol tolerance huh? She's the brains of this crew after all. Bruh Zoro was literally playing with them XD. They believe he's the real captain of this crew. I love how he used Luffy as a jump pad. So miss Wednesday is a princess named Vivi in disguise? |
 |
| My reaction was like, "really? They're 'strong?'" LOL. Good thing Nami has high tolerance! |
| Zoro clearly had the time of his life. Also lol at Nami xD Wonder if they gonna intervene now |
 |
| it would be hard to argue that Zoro was the real captain after not having seen Luffy in action quite yet LOL but really, when it comes down to it, they're co captains aren't they |
| Why the muscle girl voice so cute lol Oh wow they just name dropping a new thing in this episode, Arabasta? Vivi? Ohh i see, Miss Wednesday was Princess Vivi. |
