| New OP time, and man, might just be recency bias, but I think this was OP26 level for me holy shit that was a really cool and fun OP. What ain't looking cool and fun though, is the current state of Egghead lol. Like everything is going to shit as we speak. Like the crew’s getting beaten, the island’s being torn apart, they’re surrounded by thousands of enemies ready to kill them... And all the meanwhile, Luffy's snacking up on the vending machine... just great lololol. Luffy’s having a blast, but Vegapunk looks down now that Egghead’s about to fall. Like, again, so much shit is happenign, from Sanji stepping up, Kizaru’s running wild, and Lilith and Brook zooming around... just funny shit if anything. Feels like either BB's crew or Dragon’s about to show up.... I mean, of those is in the OP for a reason rightttt. |
 |
It's just so peak 😭 |
 |
| that new op is fire LOOOVE that new ending g5 back next epsidoe YIPPEEEEEEEEE |
  me candies:        |
| New OP is pretty good and I love the visuals. Man, all that hard work Vegapunk put into building Egghead and it's just all crashing down and burning before his eyes. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| It's been a while since an OP had that classic One Piece feeling to it. This is one did it for me. The song is pretty great right off the bat, even tho the climax left a lot to be desired. There's simply not enough power. Maybe the full version does a better job in that regard. Visually it's fire. And again, Luffy still not in a state where he can fight while Kizaru is up. Bro is cooked without food. Gear 5th truly puts him at that top tier level, but it's only temporarily and comes with huge drawbacks, which is also why he wouldn't win in a 1vs1 Kaido as he is now. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Never expected to have a new op..and this one gives me goosebumps 🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 Finally, it's time for Nika to arrive at the scene. From here on it's only gonna get better and better with the action. |

| Interesting new OP and animation. It was kind of different, but I liked it. Leave it to Sanji to be worried about Bonny while his own crewmate is falling to land. He doesn't even know if Frankie is conscious. smh The last scene in the ED: Lilith being the only one left picking up an apple. It got me a little choked up. |

| Love the new opening, No hate to the previous one but I like more upbeat songs like this although it's full of spoilers haha. |
 |

| We are back with once again usual great to perfect toei piece. I like how they portrayed lilith curiosity, buid up to buster call use and then actual buster call, vegapunk being heartbroken seeing his lifelong dedication to egghead being destroyed, and kizaru* trying to prevent kuma and bonney with franky escape, also the tease at the end. 8.8/10 episode. Opening was perfect how much symbolisms there was and the focus on the next upcoming storylines, the use of colors lighting was exqusite, also the song is great. Ending song visually also is perfect with the silent film footage, but when it comes to the song itself was meh, actually this beacame least favorite ending song for me. Cannot wait for those segments of egghead island to be animated from the manga soon, those who read knows. |

| @moso20 No? the pacing is great, they are literally panel by panel in terms of plot progression and 99% of what it was shown also was in the manga, stop spreading misinformation, you clearly have not read the manga. |

I have seen solo leveling season 2 episode 7 controversy and seeing how people reacted to that episode calling it filler full of pacing issues even though it was canon and had no pacing issue and realizing what they meant with that that just because there was no action, I do not take people seriously anymore that use filler in modern day and age anime, considering that filler was only in the anime community reserved refer to those anime original arcs of the serialized anime that were used as an "unoficial hiatus" and that's it and not the scenes even when full canon deem boring thus calling filler. |

| @GTRaijin and most episodes of dressrosa were good could have been better but where good, and there were a lot of episodes inside dressrosa that were great adaptation of the chapters they were adapting. and once again stop overexarating with those "flashbacks happening every 5 minutes" some episodes had some issues but not every episode of dressrosa was like that. |

What the shit are you even saying? First of all, use spacing. Secondly, it's not about not having action scenes that makes it ass, it's the fact that nothing happens at all or just the same thing is extended for 5+mins straight cuz idk? Like shit, even in the next ep preview, we still have the same scene still going on.. |

| @GTRaijin Also most episodes of gintama were also adapting 1 chapter per episode because the reason why gintama manga is very dense text heavy and crammed with material that translated to the pacing of the anime being most of it 1 chapter per episode and the pacing was very natural, that is also the same thing with modern one piece manga (act 2 and act 3) that majority of the chapters are very dense text heavy and crammed with material that adapting 1 chapter per episode with also airing most episodes with 5 minutes shorter in duration via recap works perfectly. the pacing of anime adapting manga depends on the density of the manga, for example 12 volumes of current era one piece does not equal 12 volumes of jojo they, current era one piece manga is very dense text heavy and crammed majority of the chapters with also Oda sensei using small panels format that makes the chapters longer whereas jojo use large panel format with quickly paced dialogue that is very few text and also majority of the chapters features very little to no dialogue since many of the chapters are focused on fast paced action and also uses a lot of repetead pages within many of the chapters when the enemy stand is defetead that also directly translates to jojo anime that they can crammed a lot of these repeated pages spanning half of the chapter in to one scene, adapt 4 to 5 chapters per episode and still able to animate 99% of the chapters content with very few cuts and also even fit in anime original/extended content that every adaptation based on the source material has. |

| @GTRaijin all of it was in the manga, read the manga first then we can talk. I was comparing side by side and they were literally panel by panel in terms of plot progression with very few brief anime original scenes added like every adaptation has. |

| @GTRaijin and if you don't like the anime so much then why you cannot read the manga that is free on the official publisher app manga plus huh? Instead complaing all the time while not realizing that 99% of the scenes in this episode were also in the manga. |

| Better pacing than last week, but that's a very low bar. New op and ed are fine, but I liked the previous ones better. And I liked the ones before those better than those. I wish they'd kept UUUUUS! for the entirety of the Egghead arc, but at least it still plays during the next episode preview. Funnily enough I thought Over the Top should've been kept for all of Wano too. Those people definitely make the best One Piece themes. |

| the new opening visuals are so peak, but i think i slightly prefer the new ending's song more. cooked with both again though. lillith and brook duo is so underrated lol. we just got the one piece heroines anime announced as well, wish lillith was written into it but alas it was too late, i think. |
 |
| Finally, we are back to the One Piece I love and respect. the pace is good again! |
 |
| The new OP and ED were both freaking amazing This is the most emotion we've ever seen Kizaru show, he's finally close to breaking point |
| One Piece is on an absolute KILLING streak with their OP's. They have all been bangers since Wano. |
 |
| oh man the pacing is killing me. |

Wayne_Flow said: @GTRaijin okay, this episode wasn't the best one. But Dressrosa... Do you remember how many episodes were spent on Bellamy drama in Dressrosa? And how many episodes Luffy couldn't even start fighting Doflamingo. And wtf do you mean by flashbacks every 5 mins? There was only 1 episode in Egghead with lots of unjustified repetitive flashbacks — the previous one. This ep had only one repeated flashback and it was justified from a directing perspective and accompanied by comments from Saturn and Vegapunk and lasted not so long. Did you read what I said? Where did I mention anything about this ep having a flashback every 5 mins? Please re-read my comment again and then reply. |
|
| As a non manga reader, I absolutely didnt mind the pacing, the 20 minutes the episode had to offer were absolutely amazing, other than that the new opening was absolutely amazing, the visuals were above beautiful so I cant wait to see it every single time |
 |
| The new OP is so fucking fire. Yuki Kamiya. The GOAT. The Buster Call has been commenced on the Egghead. All the future of humanity that Vegapunk dreamed of is in fire in front of his eyes. Poor guy. Bonney and Kuma are the targets of the Pacifistas now. And, some new faces will finally appear. |
