THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So now you can watch it streaming and ripped. I really enjoyed it! I loved the parts that were based on the manga. But the ending took me by suprise. Awesome :D And finally we get a OP ending again (I really miss those) Great watch :D And without a doubt the best of the 3 specials. |

I liked it. Though I am very very behind and don't know who some of Luffy's crew is, it was still awesome. :D |

Something is wrong with the translation of the english site....-__- They called Zoro "Zolo" and Galley "Gary". But I can't wait to see this. I"m downloading it right now! |

Not very good. In the romance dawn pilot a rope would stop Luffy, but in the point in the story in which they inserted teh romance dwan adaptation it was very stupid to stop him with just a rope. And also he didn't need gear third to destroy a ship. He had already done domething like that in the baratie and he was far weaker than he is. Not very well adapted... |

I loved it. I think they really combined Romance Dawn with One Piece really well. I laughed when I seen Panda-man :). |

Yeah, I noticed these plot holes too :P but we gotta take in consideration that this isn't canon, so what happens here doesn't really matters xD Anyway, I liked it, the animation was good, the VA wonderful as always, we got some "new" great characters such as Silk, Galley and the mayor. The down point is that the plot is kinda predictable (which is expected) and some adaptation problems. Btw, am I the only that thought this guy's head extremely funny? xD ![]() |

I loved it :D It seemed alot like earlier One Piece. Silk was a great character, and I loved how they put "We Are!" to the fight at the end. This was awesome. |

I agree with the people who complained about plot holes. It was full of them!! I mean, that place is obviously not on the Grand Line if it's being attacked by people with bounties of 5 million. Someone like that would never even make it to the Grand Line. They should have just adapted it without adding the current OP cast, even though I love all of them. Silk was very interesting. It's pretty obvious that there are parts of her character that eventually became everyone else. She looks and - in some ways - acts a lot like Nami. She uses a sword like Zoro, she cooks like Sanji and she was abandoned by her pirate father like Usopp. There were two Pandaman cameos!! He appeared in the ED too. |

It's not canon so why you're you're complaining, this special was only made for mere entertainment.. btw I really loved it, galley was a really funny villain and silk was great also...^^ |

I thought it was pretty cool. To those that didn't ... As for the rope holding Luffy, I never really felt that the rope was holding him back. If he wanted to be free he could have been. IMO he got roped up because he didn't want to fight the villagers, and then when Galley showed up he just didn't bother taking it off. He probably should have but hey, its Luffy... he ain't too bright. As for using Gear Third to destroy the ship... why not? IMO it is partly him just showing off to Galley as a way of telling him off. Like saying, "Look you ain't a pirate. This is what a pirate can do." And finally, the comment about the 5 Million Beli pirate in the Grand Line... I say why not? People are born and raised in the Grand Line. So maybe Galley was just getting his start? Not all pirates have to find their way into the Grand Line. You can never understand the true genius of Oda. Plus, if it's not cannon ... it doesn't matter I guess. :) [edit] Another thought about the 5 million beli bounty. Bounties are a measure of a characters threat level to the government, ie how much they want them caught. It is not a measure of power. Modified by OmegaRed, 12-03-08, 1:32 PM |

Interesting episode. I liked how they tied in the Strawhats and Sunny into the whole plot. |
