Awesome Sig by Lailide |
| choppers and sanji's past.. i think out of all the chars pasts, i like zoro's the best. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Skipped again. Chopper's past... T__T 4/5 |
     |
| Another flash back, chopper's this time. Yeah you really don't have to watch these episodes at all, there is nothing new to them, its all the same stuff from the early character arcs. Seriously how many times are they going to show luffy and the crew jump down that damn waterfall lol |
  |
| Well its not all a lost in watching these flashbacks.. it just reminds us their goals and conviction for their nakama.. i wonder if they will ever reunite with their beloved one after grandline? hehe |
   |
| Sanji's and Chopper's flashbacks on when they were kids and when they first met and joined Luffy's crew are shown. |
| Skipped all these flashbacks - I remember them perfectly, so no need to repeat all this stuff. Next episode - will go back to the plot, I hope? |

 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| These episodes are so redundant. Yet the ending of Drum's arc still gives me the chills. |
| this was probably the only flashback ep i fully watched. sanji and chopper's pasts are my favorite out of the bunch~ |

| Yeap I really like Sanji and Chopper too, with their painful pasts that made them strong as they are today. Then again that's pretty much the same for everyone! Gad I love the Straw Hats! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| That mafia omake it was so good. Why can't they make a full episode about it? |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| Never realized Ikue Ootani, Chopper's voice actor, was also the voice of kid Sanji. Nice surprise, specially since we got flashbacks from both this time |
| Even though I did complain about Zoro's flashback not being super important to show for this showdown, I somewhat take that back. In retrospect, the flashbacks we saw were to refresh our mind on why this fight is important to them, not particularly why Robin is. Luffy is here to save Robin like Shanks did to him once before. To live up to his understanding of what a good captain is and to eventually surpass Shanks while being heavily inspired by his actions. Similar to how Shanks risked it all to save his friend Luffy, Luffy is doing so for Robin. It's sweet. Sure, Zoro's was less related to Robin, but it was an indicator and a reminder of why he is fighting. He was at that moment thankful for Luffy. Without him, he wouldn't have gotten nearly as strong as he is today. Luffy has led him to fight and fight again and supported his dream this entire time, such as when he stopped Buggy from cheating way back in one of the first arcs. And now, this is the biggest challenge yet. He has to win this fight for his dream and his childhood friend, with his and her blades alike. Again, less important, but still meaningful and I feel my first response towards it was jaded. As I mentioned before, Usopp's relation with this showdown is a powerful one because of how deeply related it is to his own goals of becoming the brave warrior that he's actually almost already become. This is a test. For, the brave warrior he wants to be would definitely challenge the entire world for his friend's sake, and that's exactly what he's doing. Nami's reflection here is one of the most touching. She can relate on a very deep level to Robin. She was in a similar situation as I described in my post that episode and her reflection showed that she's here to make sure that someone as hurt and alone as she once was has friends like Luffy to get her out of it. It's her time to walk to Arlong Park. :) Sanji's felt slightly less meaningful than Zoro's reflection. I don't see how Robin is a parrel to Zeff here like Sanji mentioned. At least it was a nice reminder of Sanji's past. The farewell to the Baratie has always stayed one of my favorite scenes in the series, it's just so touching to see all of these manly men cry like brothers and family saying goodbye to their good friend. I hope we get to see Johnny and Yosaku in the series once again. I always want to mention how it was cool that Zeff has such a great analysis of Luffy so early on. His faith in himself allows him to transcend fear and that itself is his force. Chopper's reflection was one that actually related super well to Robin. He can relate with Robin like Nami could. Not so long ago he had no one, his life before Hiriluk was Robin's life since forever really. She was even called a monster just like Chopper was. Because of that Chopper wants to make sure she has a Hiriluk in her life too. Someone to rescue her and tell her she's not a monster. To accept her. And that person will be him, and the other Straw Hats. For that reason Chopper's reflection was probably my favorite, it made me realize those things which I hadn't really realized before. It may be why they had such a motherly relationship because whether they knew it or not they could relate with each other. Sanji had a really nice childhood comparatively to some of the others and it's part of the reason the Baratie is so nice. Sure, he starved to near death but he got to live his childhood with a restaurant of people that were so close they were practically a family! This filler was a great way of reminding ourselves of why this encounter is important for each and every one of them, a reminder of their past and ideals, and as a way to see some cute shorts we'd probably not get otherwise. I really liked this. It was a nice calm before the storm. |
| Sanji and Chopper's pasts were shown this time and every time the two of them teared up, I started tearing up too. It'd more emotional if you'd watch the whole thing in its respective arcs but Straw Hat backstories are way too good ♡ Hopefully, the next episode would be the last one where they jump off that roof kek Don Luffy sadly eating meat over his gangster friend's graves was strangely funny. |
 |
| Finally! we're all through the flashbacks! I'm looking forward for the next episode! I'm missing the action already.😣 |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| That's like saying you've got half a pair of balls.... LMAO |
 |
| SKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIPPED I CAN'T BELIEVE DRAGON MAID GOT BURNT BUT THIS SHIT KEEPS GOING |
 |
| Namimore killed by money LOL seems accurate |
| Man this episode made me cry again 😭 One Piece the Godfather edition was so funny. |
 |
| Luffy crying while eating meat next to his friends' graves was funny xd |
 |
| A nice refresher of Sanji and Chopper's past. I particularly liked the relationship between Zeph and Sanji, with them finally being nice to each other upon Sanji's departure. I also forgot just how unwilling pretty much all of the crew were to join the Strawhats, even Chopper's situation is quite similar to Robin's. And lol at godfather Luffy. He looked worryingly similar to crocodile xD |
| Even though it’s only been a couple months it’s good to watch these original. Excited to see how they do chopper back story in the live action But man the skits at the end are so funny. With all of them being Italian lmao |
