Nice episode, hope there will be an interesting fight, then the filler arc might still be very interesting :)

But can anyone tell me why the staff always makes this surprised mega faces? They already overdid it with Keimi, but it looks even stranger on someone who can make her head big xD

I like how Luffy still accepts everything like that, but Nami, Chopper and Usopp shouldn't just agree with it like Zoro and Sanji.. :P

And Zoro's reaction when Sanji mentioned the booze was hilarious :D

But man, they should really change the look of the straw hat again, it doesn't look as cool as some time ago :(

A dedication to the new movie.

It was epic at the beginning when they were about to fight the Marine armada... to bad they ended up being mirages :(
It was a great episode overall, this is how you do a filler.

My only disappointment was that I was expecting a new opening... but maybe next week we will see one.

Gotta admit, I like the segue from the story directly to the mini-arc. You could *almost* believe this was part of the manga.

This would've probably been better to put prior to the Straw Hats stating they were headed to Punk Hazard, but ehh... I rather have it like this instead of having to watch that episode after these fillers so, meh.

Will this be considered anime canon, or just promotional stuff? Z's gonna be in the movie, after all; I'm worried about the connectivity of the plot, even if they managed doing this stint safely during the Strong World promotion.

At the beginning you could see the two members of the Neo Marines (Ain and Bins) that will be in the movie "One Piece Movie Z", As well as their Jolly Roger. I don't know the plot of the movie, but this filler arc probably has something to do with it.

I've known that something's wrong since the beggining (I'm not reading manga)... so I was right - it's filler. But actually it was pretty good (thank God), I hope that the whole arc gonna be interesting. BTW, do you know how long will those fillers last (more or less)?

Fillers that promotes movies (In One Piece too) are usually short. I'd say about 8 episodes.

Weren't there 4 episodes last year when Strong World was coming out? I'm sorry, I stopped watching the anime around Thriller Bark and was around only for the specials.

I'm still deciding wheter I like Sanji's baggy pants or not.

Besides how weirdly awful Lily's overly-shocked-mega-sized head swells up to be, the episode was pretty hilarious and awesome. I love Nami's new hairstyle and white dress. Zoro's expressions are gold! Sanji is, well I love that he's a gentleman, so no disappointment there. And I like the fact they have another person (a girl even!) who can relate to the amount of food intake that Luffy can! Looking forward to the movie (with subs)!!!!!!!!!! :D

Lol, what? This is a super short filler guys. Next week is the last of this Z promotion, and then the week after that is, "Episode of Luffy: Hand Island Adventure", which is some random filler. That same week, Z movie comes out. So in total, we have 2 more weeks left of fillers. In total, only 3 filler episodes.

really loved this episode. getting me in the mood for Film Z. for once, i think i'm excited for the filler. there were a few moment where the animation looked similar to the movies, which was cool.

the neo-marines look awesome, very excited to see more.

shuzo's outfit looks like it's inspired by chinese armor, whereas bins looks japanese (with his nodachi and oversized shuriken).

oh and jesus christ, nami.
so. much. fanservice.

awesome episode, considering it's filler. 5/5

I woudn't have noticed it's a filler if people didn't talk about it. It's pretty damn good.
Btw Nami is so hot. idk how Sanji didn't bleed to death in this ep, probably cause he was distracted by the cute Giant girl, I guess.

I meant to say this for a while... better late than never, this OP is the best of the One Piece series that I've seen so far.

I wonder how much filler episodes will there be? Well I'm guessing up until Film Z has been released.

Pretty neat filler.

Zoro's something else.. he was told that all the food was gone and he didn't even flinched, but when he heard that the booze were gone as well... he rose to the occassion

This filler arc would do pretty well before the Punk Hazard arc starts. A little break from the heavy plots after the Fishman Island arc soothes the bones.

I think the producers from One Piece should give a hand to the producers from Naruto about making a good filler, this episode was awesome. Robin stoping the snow "Mil Fleur Gigantesco Mano" was epic *-*

OMG! even this was filler episode. I didn't notice at all O_O I agree Naruto's fillers should be as enjoyable as One Piece are. Hope they can make interesting filler episodes in future with better improvements.

About Episode:

Pretty unique ability Lily has getting small and then giant is very cool ability and hope she uses it to order to save his dad. Of course Luffy is going to kcik-ass some Marines in the next episode. Now I am really interested to see One Piece Z movie hope the waiting time is not so long when it comes out. Also New World weather looks awesome those thunders that were in air. Panz Fry is weird name haha.

I didn't even realise this was a filler until about the part where they started talking about Z's ambition more. Then i remembered the movie poster talking about Z. According to the Wiki page this'l be a 4 episode arc. So we'l be jumping straight into the action.. Unlike the Hordy arc, which reminded me allot of DBZ...

Was definitely the best filler I've seen. But I find it interesting that in the episode when they're boarding the Sunny to leave Fishman Island, Franky's hair was how he wears it in the next arc, but now it's different for this filler arc. :o

They didn't say they were going there yet. In fact they never plan to go there... it was just a coincidence that they popped out of the ocean right next to it, when they got "the call".

reaght said:
Not really a filler, Oda's still the writer of the story.
The definition of filler isn't "Made by someone besides the original author."... it's "Not canon to the actual story.". This arc is filler, because it doesn't actually happen. The characters will never reflect on these events, or even acknowledge that they happened... unless it's in yet another filler arc, which is pretty rare (I think the only thing I've seen that happen in is InuYasha). And it would be impossible to argue that "Maybe it did happen but there's simply no relevance to anything else in the story."... because in the manga they come out of the ocean right next to the island where the next arc is... and they wouldn't have found it / gone to it otherwise.

This episode was enjoyable for me... but there's no denying that it's a filler. It is only a portion of the quality that comes from the actually canon material. Just because Oda wrote the storyboard doesn't mean he did everything, or even most of the movie... it just is lacking slightly in every aspect from the actual series.

Note: Yeah I know you probably will never read this but I figured better to respond late than never.
