Lol this episode was funny, the boxman had a bush for a head so maybe he was a "bushman" lol, kinda random and not important to the story but still a good ep.

Thank God. I thought Gaimon was actually going to be with them throughout the series.

Geez, there were more mixed animals here than in The Last Airbender (the series, not the crappy movie).

Felt like a filler episode. The action bit was good though. I knew box man wouldn't be joining him. Otherwise, he'd at least be in the OP with the others.

Good episode. What I liked the most was the fact that they didn't stretch it to five or more slow-paced episodes.

Episode 18:

Usopp showcases his skills and design/draw the (in)famous Straw hat emblem :3
Luffy is such a great guy ^w^
Gaimon and those animals such a touching bond TwT
I love the OST for the endings of One Piece they are just great, even small episodes like these makes me happy to watch them >w<

I love One Piece so much <3

Well it's cannon none the less, there is a few filler episodes/arcs which is worse than this episode so brace yourself for that ;3

I can't help but wonder if Oda has decided what the One Piece is yet. I get the feeling it will be something cheesy like "friendship".

He most likely does since he already know how One Piece is gonna end :3
In an interview he said that the ending would be much more epic than the Marineford Arc in his opinion so brace yourself for that day ;3

99.9% sure Gaimon is from Digimon... but I'll disregard that

Cute one off episode. I made an audible "aww", when I realized Gaimon would stay on the island for his animal friends. My favorite scene was when Zoro walked over with his eyes closed, took Usopp's drink, took a sip, and then opened his eyes to realize Gaimon was there. That was pretty funny. Great animal designs!

It was nice of Luffy to try to keep the old man's dream alive, even if it meant him looking like a bad guy.

Looks like Usopp actually had another role in the ship as the mark-maker.

This felt more like the first filler episode but it was fun anyway. It showed the good nature of the Straw Hats and their dedication to move on forward as long as one can move forward being infectious to the hearts of others. Luffy's managed to make light of 20 wasted years by making it sound like it's not that bad at all.

It's great that Box Troll-Ossan made a lot of animal friends that helped him guard the treasure and keep company with all these years.

I didn't think the box man would stay with the Straw Hats as a nakama from the beginning, but at least I expected them to take him to the mainland... In the end he took the best choice though.

Huh? If I'm not mistaken this has to be a filler episode. Right?

It was alright.
