Awesome episode. Brook is really great and that showed in this episode.

Is it just me or did the animation jump up a notch?

Decent episode. Nice Brook scenes, though nothing else more. Once we get past all this background information episodes, then we'll be hitting the good stuff.

Animation seemed the same to me.

Kaidou, who the hell is that? I am assuming some strong pirate in the new world that actually defeated Moria. Sounds interesting.

Damn can't wait to see Oz's Resurrection.

OZ is one big fella! haha During this episode it got me thinking.. what if they had Gol D. Roger's corpse and placed luffy's shadow? haha One piece would end after that! LOL XD

Brook is a great new character.. another swordsman on the crew would be outta this world! :-D

so the zombies weakness is salt? kinda makes sense.
shouldn't be a problem since there should be a buncha salt on the ship too.
i wonder what it was that franky asked brook that made him like him so much? well i like brook nonetheless, he's so badass!
the one that'll have luffy's shadow is oz... hmmmmmm

Got to love how Brook is a badass, defeating everyone while singing and then runs away scared XD XD XD

the explanation to why they send them away was DUMB. If they die the zombie die so why would they send the crew unconscious to sea. I mean if they got exposed to sunlight while they were still asleep they would die. It would make more sense to have them imprisoned . I don't know why this explanation is pissing me off but it just feels like a half ass attempt to make sense.

Just watched this ep.

Lol the funny scenes with Cindry.

Also, the cats out of the bag. Everything explained. & even though it was not revealed directly, this must be the reason for the similarities between Sanji/the zombie penguin, Zoro/Jigoro: they all have their respective shadows in them. Interesting .

Wow Brook. So badass lol. It will be weird to have 2 swordsmen in the same crew, Zoro has some competition it seems. I'm curious who would win tho.

We got a consensus of the formation and motives of Moria and his men. Moria lost to a certain Kaido in the New World. I bet he didn't have good nakama and couldn't keep up. Being upset over this he perhaps ran into Hogback 10 years ago and the two agreed to work together for their dreams as they had a middle ground. Later Absalom joined the crew(assuming he wasn't with Moria since the beginning), certainly at least since before the first time Brook attacked so he's been with Moria and Hogback for 5+ years. Then, what I found as a genius form of storytelling, Oda had Perona ask Absalom about Brook. This told the audience that Absalom has both been here longer than Perona but also that Perona wasn't involved with Thriller Bark 5 years ago when Brook attacked. Otherwise she would know more about him and have been able to have spotted him earlier. Of course, Absalom has a thirst for power and you can see it through his actions and his form of intimidation to get what he wants as well as his frail ego when people don't respect him. Perona wants to have an army of cute things obey her will even though she's anything but cute herself. She may look it but her personality exposes the duality of her bitter attitude and her desire and love of cuteness. I would assume Hogback wants to pursue resurrection so he can truly bring back his love Cindry, or something of that matter, because frankly, if you think about it if Cindry is dead then the soul inside her corpse isn't the real Cindry!

The way we got most of this information from the brief interactions between the villains was quite honestly wonderful!

Brook is such a touching character. His voice actor may legitimately be my favorite ever. The way you can feel what he does through his voice and body language gives me shivers. When he recalled losing and running from his shadow the first time he clenched his fist and his voice was filled with sadness and regret. That choice of his was one that nearly got him stranded in the devils triangle forever, unable to keep the promises he made to his dead crew. He almost never got another chance to get his shadow back and if not for the mistake from Perona's ghost and by proxy Perona not recognizing Brook then he wouldn't have made it back to Thriller Bark... You could tell everything from the way he spoke. The emotion his voice carried. Now he's come back, he's gotten a second chance, and despite the fact that he's lost for a second time against his shadow he refuses to give up this time. He resolves himself and fearlessly takes down the things the scare him most even if it's so hard for him that he ends up bursting out in screams after doing so. I really can't wait to see more of this character.

I wonder what Franky asked him to change his mind from "I hate this guy" to "GOSH DARN IT! I FREAKING LOVE THAT SKELETON! YOU WON'T FIND A BETTER GUY THAN THAT!", while crying. Robin seemed to agree with the sentiment too. :)

Lastly, putting Luffy in a devilish monster is such a recipe for disaster. We already know they won't be able to control him!! That monsters totally going to fight for his ambitions, nakama, and food still. No one tells Luffy what to do. No one ever has. He decides what he wants and he makes sure he gets it. No way zombie Luffy will be any different. Moria's in for a surprise.

P.S. THE ZORO ZOMBIE IS SO FUNNY TO ME! It completely exposes his caveman nature. He goes the wrong way and yells at his comrades about wanting to fight his enemies without having a single other thought go through his head. That scene had me laughing so hard.

Indeed Oda's foreshadowing is something of almost a legacy among shonen mangaka's. It makes me desire hope that one piece could potentially become the only long ongoing shonen jump series that actually has a well planned and executed finale on a level that we have really never seen before in shonen history.

Brook gave some very interesting insight on how to defeat those zombies (the in-universe explanation for salt working against the zombies was a really nice small detail too) and his swordsmanship is impressive as hell! This bony gentleman sure knows how to slash down foes with style. I bet that Franky asked him about his promise to his friends~

That giant looks really menacing and I'm certain that they'll all have a hard time trying to take him down if he ever awakens. I hope that he'll also inherit Luffy's narcolepsy or even his gluttony so he can go ahead and eat all the salty foods in the manor but it'd be interesting to see his innate desire to be the Pirate King clash with Gecko's motives.

I also like how he mentioned Kaido. I don't know how far in I'll have to watch more to find out who he really is but I've definitely heard of him from my friends who caught up before I started the anime.

This happens frequently in One Piece where something or someone gets mentioned casually and it ends up foreshadowing a future event; I love it. Kaido will most likely be a fearsome rival for Luffy later on in the series.

I love the fourth wall breaks from Cindry standing in front of the camera, it doesn’t get old.

I wonder how Brook and Zoro will get along, considering there both swordsmen it may be a heated rivalry if Brook joins the crew.
