| We're getting some fresh Yamato off the start from this episode! And this time no furry form as well ! I wonder what Yamato's relationship with Fuga is. More Sanji greatness! Zoro can never impress me no matter how hard he tries. |

| wWtching Zoro get bounced around was painful. He better catch on the music and figure a better way to use Enma before he meets King Enma. |

| You gotta hand it to them for not making the X-Drake dinosaur segment CGI Some nice reanimated nostalgic scenes, but the best flashbacks will come next week |
| Man. This is a bad struggle for Zoro. King looks like he takes damage and makes it his own. |
| It's funny how Apoo always finds a way to piss people off. In this case the CP-0 members, who don't seem to have a long stretch of patience. When the finger gun hit Apoo right in the throat, I really thought it must be over this time. Unfortunately, I still seem to underestimate his sturdiness and tenacity, which is seemingly immeasurable and allowed him to catch one of the agents flat-footed with a surprise attack. There wasn't much to see yet, but so far the CP-0 folks don't really impress me. But that might change as this fight progresses. Not only that Zoro has to struggle against King in general, Enma seems to develop a life of its own and doesn't want to recognize Zoro anymore. Still, it must be recognized that King's strength is truly worthy of that of a right-hand man of Kaido. The flashback where Zoro gets his Kitetsu III in Logue Town is definitely one of my favorites and made me very nostalgic for a moment, since I first saw that moment 20 years ago, which is crazy to me. With the background of these important swords gradually becoming clearer, one really has to ask the question how they could have come into circulation in the first place. Especially something like the Ichimonji. Shimotsuki Kozaboru is also still a bit of a mystery to us, which hopefully will be revealed soon. Besides from that decent episode. |

| what a nice reanimated flashback to a very very early one piece during east blue saga, made me feel older than i actually am lmao. the nostalgia is real. even though king hit zoro's attack with the uno reverse, zoro's charge-up was still cool af. kaguyasama2004 said: your arrival has been awaited!I seriously need to catch up!!! I've just started WANO! <3  and yes guys, i'm still using this^ for the culture lmao. |

| This episode was thoroughly enjoyable for me. The first few minutes were a bit of a bore but it picked up from the Appo, Drake, and CP0 confrontation. Speaking of the CP0 part, glad that they didn't use any CGI for Drake's T-rex. Moving on to the Zoro vs. King fight, the animation was nothing crazy, but this episode had some good scenes sprinkled in, which made the whole experience much better. The lion's song was well-animated from last time (Episode 1010), it was very clear this time and had the same impact it had in Film Gold (Zoro vs. Dice). The flashback sequences from East Blue were very nostalgic to watch. The scene where Zoro buys his Kitetsu lll always has been one of my favorite scenes from the east blue saga. The mystery behind Wado Ichimonji and Kozaburo was also beautifully adapted. All things considered, this was a solid 8/10 enjoyable episode.   (2nd image from https://shorturl.at/mLPSW) |

| I loved seeing Zoro getting his ass kicked; after having to tolerate years of the fandom overrating him, it was refreshing to see his character struggle. Other than that, the episode was more of the same. It's getting very tiring watching Momonosuke trying to keep Onigashima from falling. I get it, it's meant to be a point of tension, but the constant cuts to that in every episode for what feels like months now is maddening... |

| lol how is Zoro not bursting into laughter when King makes that face? Okay, the first half was decent but the second half of this episode is where it's at. We boutta see more backstory for Zoro. It looks like the anime is setting it up for Zoro and Sanji's fights to end at the same time which would be nice. |

| There is only 2 more chapters of the manga left for King and Queen's fights and its pretty heavily focused on just that, so we will be seeing maybe 2-3 more episodes of sanji and zoro's battles given the current pacing. |

| First episode caught up! Amazing bits with Zoro and his swords, got chills too many times this episode lmao |

You are not supposed to feel that way, these moments you should be enjoying lol. But trust me I get it. At this point wano is really starting to show its fatigue. I think manga readers felt the same way as well. How ever the payoff at the ending will deffinitly make this 4 year long arc worth it. |

Howdym8 said: I feel a bit better knowing it's looking more likely it will end in late July or August at max. You mean the Wano arc in general? Oh no it ain't ending in that time frame lol. We'll be lucky if it ends by Christmas at the rate things are going, especially if the network wastes time giving us more recap specials in place of normal episodes later down the line. |
RyoushiMorino said: You can watch it safely, it's not Wano kuni arc or any other arc related, even not about Shanks but about his singer daughter...can I watch film red before finishing wano? the dubb just got to Luffy getting out of the prison and they just dubbed red |
| Great episode with focus on Zoro after we see Drake and Apoo face up against those Cipher Pol folks! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| sanji and queen casually chatting in the middle of a fight thats lasting more than 3 months then zoro literally getting clowned at by king, lets see how many months their fight last... this anime is turning more and more into a joke legit about to pick up the manga and drop this garbage anime. |
| This episode and the last could have been one and the same. |
