| Certainly a follow-up episode to last week’s, that’s for sure. The CG, especially on the bird, didn’t blend in at all. Some strong work at the end of the first half, but otherwise... Anyways, loved how they made Luffy so goofy this episode lmaooo. Two week break, now. |

| I was good until I realized the haki blast blew off Luffy’s scars. I laughed myself into a headache. I wish they’d leave the filler until after the arc. There’s nothing new about Lucci that we can learn from Chopper. |

| Gear 5 is so funny ๐ finally the robot is up and moving. Fuck, another recap thing next week. |
| 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. |
| As expected from Toei Animation, we actually got a high-quality episode this week. And honestly, I feel like the pacing got a bit better compared to the last few eps, which made me so happy ‘cause it was really starting to get painful to watch ๐ (y’know Toei is kinda infamous for their trash pacing anyway). This ep had Luffy being hilarious, especially when he just pulled out a baseball bat from nowhere. And when he grabbed that paint bucket I was like, “oh no, he’s totally gonna write 56 on it” — and yeah, it was super obvious, we all know why lol. Tbh, I wasn’t super hyped for this ep since I was mostly waiting for Vegapunk to start talking (which didn’t happen again, rip). But the hype for the next episode is REAL — Emet finally woke up ๐คฉ. The only bummer is I heard from the fandom Discord that apparently we won’t have One Piece for the next two weeks ๐ญ like… why, Toei?? Anyway, let’s just hang out and keep each other entertained until then so the wait doesn’t feel that long. |

Bro, that bird CGI was actually solid — I didn’t even notice at first, only caught it after looking closer ๐ . Overall the anime’s quality was top notch as usual, but since last week’s ep was straight-up a visual masterpiece, this one might feel a bit underwhelming in comparison. |

Other than the special next week, why a two week break?
king0323 said: Yeah, I don’t get their reasoning either.Other than the special next week, why a two week break? The news I saw didn’t give any explanation, just dropped the break dates outta nowhere. |

| This episode gone by in a flash. Luffy's quirky Gear 5 moves coupled with the Giants' strength makes the fight so good. Now the Giant Robot's gonna lend them a hand. And we get another week of filler after this ๐ญ๐ญ My only complaint is that if they are gonna be introducing fillers every now and then like before why did they need that 6 months break. They could just keep on going.. |
| No new episode next week. It seems like the new formula is: for every 4 episodes of actual content, we get one filler. About Nami’s voice—was it the same seiyuu? |
 |
| Loved the episode. I'm glad Jinbei finally put a stop to Zoro and Lucci's fight. I'm also glad Emet finally started to move, I wonder what he's going to do and how he'll be able to help the Straw Hats. Can't wait to see what unfolds in the upcoming episode. |

@Niwaka-Samurai I have briefly described my assumptions here https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=2226120 Another possible reason is to give more time for the animation of future episodes (not necessarily the upcoming ones), because the break is longer than usual. And there's a VERY small chance that they're doing this so that the Vegapunk speech piece has a more acceptable pace (at least 1.5-2 chapters in each episode, starting with the adaptation of chapter 1114 and ending with chapter 1119), but I want to believe
| @Wayne_Flow I wouldn't count on them doing more than 1 chapter per episode. Anime takes breaks to make up for manga breaks, so they can keep the distance between the two stable. |
 |
| This part must've been real fun in the manga haha |
 |
| gear 5 luffy is so broken, dude really reattached his scars like makeup when he could've just left it lmaooo. don't even mention the baseball bat. seeing lucci with those blood stains actually looks kinda cool. |
 |
| Cartoon Network is back lol this was a real cartoon with Luffy a lot of great moment in this episode |
| PLEASE STOP RATING!!! less than 4 means that you don't know how to judge Anime / Manga!!! best recom on https://www.instagram.com/otakuweek?igsh=em5kY3Q4NTVtNXlh or Discord https://discord.gg/vbZrk64uH7 |
| CGI Mars was kind of a disappointment after the last episode but you can't expect that every week, everything else in this episode looked great still though I loved how the did the baseball pitch scene, one of the best Gear Fifth moments so far lol |

| @AmirHossein650 They really just need to take a three month break every year. Is utter garbage. |
| Episode was lame. I know that not every episode can be a 10/10, but it still sucks that the pacing is what hurts these Egghead episodes the most. The animation wasn't amazing either outside of a couple of scenes, but that's expected since this is Toei we're talking about. Speaking of which, they really need to ditch the CGI because it's really jarring when mixed with 2D animation. |

Is Fans Wants One Piece get Fillers Episode like Naruto Shippuden when at Arc War Shinobi's?
I think Another break it's Deserved for Animator make good episode & Animation.
I think Another break it's Deserved for Animator make good episode & Animation.
| @Ridzaxster First off, this episode isn’t even part of the main series — it’s made as a special. So if someone’s binging the show in order, they won’t really bump into it like a Naruto-style filler. Second, the animators’ quality is insanely good, and these breaks are mostly just to keep some distance from the manga so they don’t end up having to pull a 6-month hiatus again. But yeah, the pacing is actual pain, and making OP seasonal from the start would’ve been the best option — something Toei never went for ‘cause, y’know, $$$. |

| @Wayne_Flow my complaint is that they don't really need to do a weekly release. Instead give us a 24ep season for a year. At least once every 2 years since it's not possible every year. This would reduce the burden on Oda and the animators as well. |
| Lol, Luffy created that baseball bat in a short amount of time XD |

@Niwaka-Samurai reducing the number of episodes by half will not double the number of viewers
Wayne_Flow said: Nah, you’re wrong.reducing the number of episodes by half will not double the number of viewers Pretty much everyone I’ve seen who skips One Piece says it’s ‘cause of the insane episode count. Which honestly makes sense — it could’ve been way shorter if the pacing wasn’t so dragged out. |

| @Nerdason The only reason to why i don't drop the show is because of how much time i invested on it. Gear 5 really ruined it for me, impossible to take any enemy seriously and it's annoying all the time. Sadly, Oda didn´t cook with this horrible transformation |
