It's been a long and hard six months, but finally.. we're here... AND WE ARE SO BACK FUCKING BACK!!!!!!!!

Picking up like RIGHT where we left off, with Garp "dying", and the reactions of the people back at where it started it all, East Blue. And yeah, it ain't sunshine and rainbows over there, as a earthquake with "no parallel in recorded history" had occurred WORLDWIDE... Crazy way to start things off, but anywho, back to the mainland with all the boys, Egghead that is, is in fucking shambles lmao.

You can' even classify this shit as a buster call man, this shit is straight up a mini Marineford, with them calling up NINE vice admirals... and yes, the admiral himself, Kizaru. But on the main island itself though, honestly, I couldn't have pick a better way to get back to the island. The other stuff going on outside the Straw Hats last time we were here was so cool, that I kinda forgot about the main story lol. But now they show the Straw Hats winning easy, barely even hurt (Yonko crew moment), and totally clowning on the Gorosei and Marines. Makes you wanna know how they pulled it off and what crazy thing they’ll do next.

And ofc, a new year means a new One Piece OP.. and HOLY. FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK. I swear, they've yet to miss on both a visual and musical front since Whole Cake man. This one visually is just on a WHOLE DIFFERENT FUCKING LEVEL THOUGH. Didn't get to see the ED, but we did get to hear it, and MANNNNN, I think us manga readers can already see what the visuals will be lol.

What a fucking RETURN MAN. Don't think I could've lasted another week without One Piece... so your telling me I get TWO IN ONE WEEK???

Until tomorrow it is yet again, I guess.

The opening is pretty sweet. Never would've thought we would ever get an opening dedicated to Kuma and Bonney up until now.


The Strawhats looking like real villains here, lol. Taking the blame is the a name of the game, so they gotta play their part and live up to the status of an Emperor crew when the Navy assembled such a force just for them.

It feels so good to be finally back to real One Piece. The best thing about the FMI remake was that it bought Egghead some time to shine. Having high hopes for the upcoming episodes.

But lmao, cutting Sanji out of the group shot, yet keeping Lucci, they did our boy dirty. I swear it gotta be personal for someone at Toei.

As for Franky's new voice. It's honestly weird to have a change after all these years with the character, but it's something one will get eventually used to. And Kimura is like one of the best guys for the job. Todo is a bro on par with Franky.

I've never been so hyped for this!! One Piece is back!! 😭 Awesome animation at the beginning. They really upped the animation with the cinematic sequences. Also, the opening song played before the episode ended, and the new ending might be revealed for the next episode.

The new opening was so good, but its visuals are on a whole new level! It really showed a majority of Bonney & Kuma's backstory and then a few of the battles that will happen in this arc.

Plenty of old characters that we haven't seen in ages have reappeared in this episode as they found out about the news in the papers. The whole world is in chaos with all the earthquakes happening.

The entire episode flew by so quickly and I didn't have any issues with its pacing. Oh man, now things are different and I'd stay up late for One Piece unlike the old days, because this new timeslot isn't favorable for us guys living in the GMT+8 timezone so next time, I'll have to wait for the next day and watch the latest episode early in the morning. 😂

But I'm just really glad that One Piece is back. 😊 I really missed it. And I think they're going to keep the pacing just like before (1:1) but I believe they've already made improvements with the animation along the way.

So very happy that One Piece is back! ;_;

Love the new Op, good ol' Gre4N back to action! ED's great too!

Franky's new voice albeit just being a phrase thus far just didn't feel right lol but that is to be expected, big shoes to fill in and I hope the Subaru-san can absolutely nail it! Of course, vegapunk wasn't going to be taken out like that, phew. But they definitely made me concerned until the drop, well played Oda-sensei!

2 episodes of OP in one week. It's a first for me in 8 years! It feels like a badge I can hold up high, xD.

So Tatsuya Nagamine left the project as a series director and got replaced by Wataru Matsumi as a next series director (shanks vs eustass kid episode director),thank you Nagamine sensei for making great contributions towards one piece anime adaptation , I'm really excited for one piece return and I bet one piece will still deliver as usual and bring new creative vision as always.

Dang it... I love it. I caught up to One Piece a few months back during the hiatus thinking I won't become a One Piece diehard fan, but dang it. I've become one of them. Also will forever miss Kauki Yao for Franky. Couldn't thank him enough. Anyways, this was a good episode. Was confused from the beginning, and after watching that episode, I'm still slightly confused. How did Stella not kill Vegapunk? She was point-blank away from him.

BUT WHO CARES??? THE STRAW HATS ARE BACKKKK(Proof I've become a glazer)

Uncle is back
I loved how they started the episode just like the first episode, the sky, then the beautiful seagulls, then the sea, then they got into the main events, they also showed us some beautiful looks to show us how the drawing has improved, I loved the episode wonderfully, but I have some problems in playing the episode, the app I am currently watching from is almost broken due to the large number of users who came to watch.

Everybody in the world hears about the news regarding Garp and Luffy. We all know that Garp is fine because he’s the Legendary Hero and the grandfather of the Fifth Emperor of the Sea! We even get to see Makino’s child and Dadan, which is honestly AWESOME! The one who helped Ace defeat Bluejam is finally back in the flesh. What a site to see! I’m so glad that One Piece has come back stronger than it has ever been before.

Kizaru and Sentomaru have a little bit of a falling out on the Transponder Snail, and we learn that Kizaru’s Glint Glint powers helped Vegapunk to develop the lasers that his Pacifistas can shoot.

We see this cool visual effect resembling infrared (that’s the best way I can describe it) involving York calling the Five Elders (only four of them since St. Saturn is on a Navy ship with Kizaru at the moment). York talks big as if she actually was able to take care of the Straw Hat Pirates, not understanding the utter RIDICULOUSNESS of that claim, considering it includes the Fifth Emperor, Pirate Hunter, Black Leg, Cat Burglar, God, Demon Child, Cyborg, First Son of the Sea, Cotton Candy Loving, and the Soul King. YOU’RE NOT TOUCHING ANY OF THEM AND THE ELDERS ARE DUMB TO HAVE ASSUMED OTHERWISE.

It explains why after the Elders agreed not to kill her that she IMMEDIATELY begged for them to save her since the Straw Hats have captured her.

We see the ending and I gotta say that both the song and the visuals are absolutely STUNNING AND BEAUTIFUL! This is just.. OH MY GOD SUCH AMAZINGNESS, AND WE’RE JUST GETTING STARTED.

Luffy is casually eating meat while they hold York hostage, and we see that the battle has concluded. I wonder if we’ll see the full context as to how this was all settled. Luffy comes up with the BADASS idea of using York as a shield to force their way out of Egghead!

OH MY GOD I’M EXCITED, AND EPISODE 1,124 IS COMING LATER TODAY AS WELL! MORE ONE PIECE! I CAN’T HANDLE THE BADASSERY, LET’S GO!

Holy peak... The animation is CONSISTENTLY good, one piece has never looked this good consistently, and this isnt even an action episode, or a priority episode even. The new OST sounds great, new sound effects are amazing, and everything was incredible. Even though there was heavy filler, the filler made sense and flowed well with the episode, honestly making it even better! One issue though, is that in the infamous panel that was adapted at the end of the episode did not include Sanji. Even if they dislike Sanji at toei, you can't just change the story like that. Not to mention, they gave Sanji heart eyes at Bonney (a minor), but in the manga he had no heart eyes. Also, RIP to Franky's old VA. Overall, 10/10 (no bias hehe).

@KingBaller06 I dunno if that is so obvious. She kinda help raise Luffy and he wasn't her child, so it could have been an orphan. I was more wondering if it was a significant character and who the father was?

Haven't watch the episode yet, came here after I saw the new OP. I still need time to get used to the song, but the OP sequence never fails, they had Bonney reaching for the sun at the end, it's so peak.

that's old news now. it is changed due to Kazuki Yaos health and he stepped down because he felt that he wasn't giving the best performance for Franky and its not the Franky he envisioned so he passed down the role to Subaru Kimura

I didn't know that, it took me by surprise as well so thanks for the share.

The ep was hype but that voice change will take a bit to get used to.

This episode was insane. The whole episode felt like a sakuga reel lmao.
The opening song is a banger and the opening’s animation and direction is another 11/10. And the ending song is also a banger. Can’t wait to see what the ending animation will be.

Overall it’s good to have One Piece Egghead back and they are definitely spoiling us with the anime, manga and all other collaborations they have been doing lately.
