I thought this was a great episode. It was animated well and I can't wait until it gets subbed.

I know. I was thinking to myself were the animators different, were they just pulling off the stops for this episode or are they really improving the animation of One Piece with each episode. I mean look, if you noticed with each episode, the animation is getting better. Hopefully, later episodes will become even better when they are animated. even Nami's boobs bounced...in the preview!!!

Honestly, I thought the animators are becoming better and better in animating One Piece. The animation is almost like the animation in the movies. Hopefully, they will always animate One Piece like this and become even better!

This episode is most likely filler. I have not seen it yet, and I do not plan on watching it.

The reason the animation is different/better is that they have probably been working on this episode over a longer period of time, getting ready to fill in episodes while they wait for Oda to finish up more of the manga. But the animation is most certainly getting better with every episode. A lot of episodes are rushed, and the animation is sometimes sub par as a result.

Any idea how long the filler is going to run for? The great thing about one piece is that the filler is always between arcs and never runs for more than a couple episodes.

From what I saw on the episode list. This filler arc is running for 2 episodes I think. Then it'll probably go into another one. Or maybe it's 4 episodes. This doesn't look like a long filler though.

My thoughts exactly.........from a week ago, before I saw the preview for this episode. Normally, I try to avoid fillers (all of them, doesn't matter even if it is the OP fillers are "better" than the ones in those 2 "other" shows.) like the plague. But Nami and Robin in a resort......relaxing is something too good to pass. I know, I'm shallow, Sue Me. =P

I don't get why people hate fillers?

But this filler will last for 2 episodes, then the specials come up.

This looks like it will be another great filler arc. One Piece fillers really stand above the rest.

I don't have a problem with filler.
1: If done right it gives us more of the good stuff
2: you can't predict what is going to happen because the manga already spoiled it.

One Piece delivers on both of these points.
(btw can you imagine Foxy's crew becomming the new Team Rocket? Appearing every arc, only to get blown up in mere seconds?)

No, lol, just no. Team Rocket was great but boy, did I ever get tired of seeing them every episode for 200+ episodes.

I was quite surprised Foxy got blasted out of the story before the halfway point. This filler arc seems good. Brook in a Kill Bill? outfit was just WIN!

Not bad filler. I actually don't mind fillers if they are interesting and not too long. And if you guys are right about this filler only being 2 episodes long then this is a pretty decent episode.

Meh, I didn´t like the episode. Sure, it was ok for a filler, but in comparison to the non-fillers it was crap. But I guess that is to be expected. I hope they will get back on track soon.

I was positively impressed with the animation in this episode because if you think that it is a filler, wow!
Looks like this filler arc will be short, don't you think?
This was the first episode, and we've already seen the bad guy's true colours...
I hope that they will continue with the manga story after this short filler, can't wait for

i thought it was a great episode.

it was soooo FUNNY when the raccoon turned into a mini nami and then sanji got all upset. i seriously laughed a lot at that part. sooo much that i almost cried!!!! and my stomach hurt.

i thought it was a great filler...

Great episode , One Piece is more than just shounen action 24/7. Loved the first half of the episode very much, they looked so happy and did some funny stuff :p (Usopp always messing with chopper is so funny hahaha, when he runs down fast and jumps from there and chopper thinks he jumped from up there xD)

Well, foxy sure was defeated fast :p

Nami was incredibly jiggly in the preview. xD

So its just a short 2 episode arc? well, I guess I can roll with that. the new characters and their story don't seem bland at all. I do hope that Nami and Robin don't change into another outfit when they're blowing the shit out of the resort.

Fillers are ok, I liked especially previous filler when pirate flag was captured. But it's quite annoying that there's always little boy or little girl who is in trouble.

That wasn't filler. Foxy is an actual villain. Only one of the three episodes where Foxy was in (not including this filler) was filler. Seriously, Afro Luffy's in the manga. ^^

I was quite surprised that I actually liked this episode. I was dreading it, and even skipped over it, but came back to it this week, and I'm glad I did. One Piece is always entertaining.

I think he was referring to the Ice Hunter-arc. You know, the one where they end up in the glacier, and their flag is stolen by Don Patchino and his band of bounty hunters.

This episode: worth the filleriness; if only to see the characters basically parody themselves. But I do have some questions.

Anyone else think the girls' father acted just like Dr. Hiruluk? (That is, if you were paying more attention to his personality and less attention to the pineapple.)

So, they just let Brook in the spa, no questions asked? (His clothes were awesome, though!)

Sanji, what. WHAT. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THE PORCELAIN DOLLS I HAVE IN MY ROOM, KTHNXBAI.

Yes it was. It was pretty funny when Sanji wanted that animal to turn into Nami. One Piece doesn't dissapoint, even when it's filler(In my opinion at least).

wow thats pretty sad, i had sanji's idea for that animal before even he did. xD
then again it's to be expected after bon clay turning into nami xD

this episode was pretty win, i was kinda dreading it not cause its filler, but because i generally hate foxy, but apparently he's not the main point of this filler arc after all. looks like we get at least some brooke action next episode, and wow, im glad i wasnt the only one to notice the most attention grabbing part of the next episode, nami's massive jiggling. xD

on a side note, shouldn't they have been at least slightly worried about foxy? they were encased in metal and fell into the sea unconscious.... well maybe that's the last we'll ever see of them?? xDDD also if they only made that tiny splash for falling into the water, what was everyone else so worried about when they were falling... lol

Team rocket is blasting off again!!

Thats all i could think of when seeing the lame foxy crew pirates again. Anyways the premise of this very short story arc was kind of interesting about the creation of jewels. I am glad to know that the arc has some sort of action in it. Seems like the mastermind behind it all was Doran.

Is it just me or has the animation really improved? I hope it stays like this for the remainder of the show. The animation is this episode was probably the best ive ever seen it yet in the entire series.

Ok for a filler. The things that make fillers worth are the little details. Chopper with arm floats, Brook with a pink towel, my gif XD
But as someone else mentioned I don't like it that most of the times they are about crying kids! It's quite of annoying after a while.
I am not against fillers, but I do prefer those one with more serious plots (Navarone arc, rainbow mist etc)...
