Pekoms was such a cool dude in this episode. Nice to see that he is a pretty decent guy.

Still painfully slow paced but at least we finally get to learn what happened to Sanji next episode.

This man was brutal!

Good episode.

We're still continuing on the flashback of Zou but this time with more focus on the events that led to Sanji leaving.
Sanji had the time of his life with Garchu though. XD

Funny how Luffy said he's fine with Sanji picking a fight with Big mom cause he already picked a fight with her. xD

Pekoms is a pretty nice guy, Glad to see him showing gratitude towards the StrawHats. He was willing to abort the mission and face the consequences.

Bege was brutal at the end, shooting Pekoms without any second thoughts.

The moment we begin to warm up to Pekoms and see his good side, he gets wasted.

The suspense of wanting to know what happened to Sanji is killing me.

And no, not touching the manga.

Sanji (Furry enthusiast confirmed) ヽ(´▽`)/ was having a blast with his Garchu and then to see him blasting off by the fist of a Goddess. *My sides hurt from all the laughing*

Man, I despise greedy bastard and cowards like Bege, shooting his own comrade in the back… Pekoms even if he is part of Big Mom crew I like his gratefulness. I hope Pekoms survive that...

And we got our answer to how Sanji responded to GARCHU~!

...Pekoms doh

Ok I get it, but why the hell did you waste him with ammunition?! in the preview apparently big mom had a secret letter anyway, why be a dick?! Either way, very curious

Sanji is still awesome. It was funny to see how he used Garchu.

Bege is a coward for brutally shooting a comrade in the back

Pekoms is feeling indebted to Straw Hats,who saved his tribe and is willing to let them go just by handing them Ceasar.Bege though shoots him without any second thoughts.I loved how the episode ended.Next week the most important episode about Sanji and also has to do with the next arc as well.If they don't drag it out too much ofc.

Woah that ending was unexpected. I kinda hope Pekoms is dead from that tbh. It was nice to see how he treated the Straw Hats in this episode but it'd make the story more interesting. I wonder what the invitation is? "He might not come back"?

Loved Sanji's selective Garchu. He's a really awesome character, bad ass fighter and one of the funniest cast members to boot. It's too bad it looks like he'll be leaving so soon and who knows when he'll be back (not an invitation for manga spoilers.)

I of course don't believe for a second Pekoms is actually dead. Hopefully he can get some payback.

It's finally happenniiinnnnggggg *o*

Also glad to see Pekoms is a stand-up guy. Capone...not so much?
He has absolutely no chill and is just way to silent to trust- he just blew major holes in Pekoms, my god.

Art/animation was real smooth this episode too. Liking the style in this arc so far!

Wondering what research Big Mom funded Caesar for...guess it'll come up eventually since he gets taken along with Sanji.

Speaking of, you can tell the next arc is gonna be about Sanji, there's just something off about him that I can't put my finger on. Like he's hiding something really important.

I will not say conclusively that pre-time skip One Piece is superior and post-time skip One Piece is inferior and has fallen with the writing and pacing, but I will say I understand the sentiment. However, the peaks of post time skip One Piece have been some of my favorite moments in the entire series. This episode was no exception. Maybe it’s because I love organized crime stories and post time skip has been a world of gangsters with the Don Quixote family and Big Mom. But the amount of tension in the world feels like it could explode at any moment. Seeing all these parties we now know converge and cross makes me feel incredible watching it.

This episode was one that threw everything into question, and gave us succinct and overwhelming answers. Firstly, Pekoms and Capone followed Sanji to Pekom’s home and when he saw the destruction we got a brand new side to one of my already favorite new characters. He was breaking down, enraged, upset, and all the while, Capone had cold eyes as he smoked, looking all business. This evoked many things. Firstly, that Kaido’s top brass, and Big Mom’s top brass, assuming Pekoms is such, are clashing violently as Pekoms is hit where it hurts most. How will this manifest? It also brings up a question: Where do Pekoms allegiances lie? Sanji saved his family and friends, but he’s a mafioso for Big Mom and that is a commitment. Will he regretfully take Sanji in, or will he throw himself under the bus?! How will Capone respond to all of this as his response seems entirely apathetic? Then as he saw they were alive, we saw another new side to Pekoms. Utter, mutual gratefulness that everyone was okay. He cried like a baby. This loan shark who targets innocent people under a tyrant who will crush them if not given what she wants, has a home, has friends, has people he cares about. He may not have a huge moral compass but he does when it comes to his people. Yet as this was going on, the smoking Capone’s watchful eyes made it clear that he was looking for their targets beyond all else.

Sanji on the other hand, after being a furry and exploding with his love, and showing some satisfaction over cooking for his new peers, was as serious as ever when he spotted them. His mind went straight to understanding the situation and dealing with it. After witnessing how Pekoms brings so much joy to the people here, and presumably having compassion for them, and understanding that this increases the tension of what they can do, he and Capone cross eyes. A knowing gaze that they have to deal with this. Sanji makes a damn good leader despite his distractions, he knows how to protect his family, so he calls for Brook and makes a meeting away from everyone else. Propositioning them that if this cannot be solved through discussion, he will make sure to fight them away from the premises. Here we see Pekom's answer while wondering if gratefulness will overpower allegiance to his boss, we wonder what Capone will do in this situation, and we wonder how Sanji can keep this under control and why he may not come back, all while having lingering thoughts of what the ramifications of the conflict between Pekoms and Jack will be.

Like the opening of the episode with Brook playing atmospheric guitar in the fog while telling the story, the sunset and silhouettes of this meeting kept this tense episode of gears that were about to collide as stylish and breathtaking as possible. Pekoms proves to us that his family and friends are more important than his job, he will take Caesar but leave his saviors to be free. This seems well and good, a trade for their safety and a compromise, the gutsy Pekoms willing to take any punishment cast on him like a man! But there is still one direct question floating above us. What is Capone’s response? After foreshadowing him to be cold, collected, apathetic, and watchful, it’s no surprise he was against this. The two men who’ve been on a crash course to collide do so! Instead of fighting him on this with words, or even showing that he can be compassionate to a brother under that cold exterior, he puts his allegiances all on Big Mom and guns his ally down in cold blood from behind. Sanji’s understanding of Pekom’s place in Zou from a mere glimpse was not a concern of Capone at all. After witnessing Pekom’s love for his people and the celebration that everyone is okay, he had no qualms doing the horrific and in that one moment, I was overwhelmed. Of course, this is the most extreme conclusion we could have come to, a near perfect split on where Pekoms and Capone lie, but it took me off guard and made me despise Capone for a moment.

With Vergo and Law, the deal made over the phone with Doffy or his meeting with Smoker, with Green Bit, and with this, One Piece can absolutely grip me in a distinctly new way and it makes me hopeful and excited for what is to come. Ever since Marineford where Luffy proved he could genuinely lose for real and have no surprise comeback, and all these recurring forces, that are not necessarily villains but have their own interests and wishes, that are so much bigger than we could ever imagine, continue to have a presence which clashes with everyone else, it creates a uniquely oppressive feeling. One that connects the world together more than ever and claims that we can’t win by beating people up like the good ol’ days. The world can swallow us up and we need to maneuver around it cautiously. Something as small as a knowing look between Sanji and Capone sharing the unspoken ramifications of their acknowledgement can speak more than many large scale acts could. And I adore that. Post time skip can be insane and it’s a great byproduct of building a world and its parties for so long.

Why the crap didn't sanji help pekoms when that creepy bastard shooted him, he sayed he'll take the punishment because they saved his home and sanji looked at Pekoms like "Oh, you got shooted, it s ok die!'' ,it's rather interesting but the ending of the episode dissapointed me, at first when pekoms thought that the straw hat pirates did the mess on his home i was like why you zebra don t tell that jack from beasts pirates did this but when the zebra told the truth i felt relieved, the pacing in this episode was rather Slow but it was ok, the garchu part means ''i love you'' and it was the best one of the show

It looks like for Sanji, a beautiful woman's a beautiful woman regardless of their species. I can't really blame him since they really do look kinda cute (I'm no furry pls no)

As much as he has a short fuse, it's pleasing to see that Pekoms is actually a man of honor. While it's understandable that Capone doesn't want his first job to be a fuck-up, the way he treated his crewmate pretty much gives me the right to call him a bastard.

That's bad news for Brooke and Sanji at the end there. Because if the Mink Tribe had found out about Pekom's murder, Capone could have easily pinned it on them to turn the Mink Tribe against them.

Sanji being a fury is the least shocking thing the show done. 100% classic. It’s wild how one minute he a degenerate and the next he the coolest character in the show. Why he my 4th favorite (behind Luffy, Zoro, and Robin).

Capone shooting that guy not super shocking. Of everyone in the “worst generation” he seems little older. And I still don’t get his devil fruit. People just live in him? Assuming Sanji went with him but why and how is the key.

Well now we know why Wanda had Nami's clothes on. Sanji is now known to be willing to step into furry territory.

Poor Pekoms. The guy showed himself to have personal honour at least by willing to take failure as payment for the Strawhats saving the people in the aftermath of Jack's attack. Bege is a cruel bastard though. No qualms about shooting an ally in the back, and with a damn gattling gun at that. Seems we wait ANOTHER episode to find out about Sanji and Caesar.

It will be interesting to see how Big Mom reacts though. Will she come down hard on Bege for shooting Pekoms in the back, or will she maintain the same coldhearted stance and say he deserved it for going against her orders?
