----------------------------------------
Can't deny that it was another slow episode, but that was a given. Episode 1000 is gonna be worth it, I hope xD

The padding in the first half was nonetheless nice

especially when this page



(Queen is such a clown hahaha)

and the individual panels were extended.


I'm tired of seeing Oden flashbacks, tho. The Zou ones were expected and fitting to spice the upcoming fight a bit up.


Lastly the Sulong transformation which was epic. Really got me pumped. Hope Toei is gonna bring their A game when they add more anime original parts to Minks vs Jack, Nangi and Gifters. Please have mercy on Jack. The poor fellow already had enough, lmao.


@Kozuki_Oden

Yeah, loaded pages like that are always a golden opportunity to buy time, to build up atmosphere and to let certain parts breath or shine in general. Yamato vs Ulti from last week was another great example of how to adapt a minor scene that barely got attention in pretty much the best way possible. I would even say it improved upon the manga.

This episode was slow

But 100% worth it , like Fmmatron said , they extended the panel which is dope !

As a Massive Oden fan (look at my name) I'm too , tired of seeing Oden flashback again and again , Toei needs to stop this

Anyway , this episode was so clean and the art style + animation were amazing in my eyes , so easy 5/5
One Piece is bad, really

These slow pacing eps are to make the 1000th ep more meaningful since the teaser is Kaido and Luffy it makes sense that 1000 is probably the main event. idk im anime only

Nooooooooo! There was way less Yamato screentime this episode D:, and imagine Saori Hayami just voicing only 3-4 sentences .__.

Little did Kaido know, Luffy had never planned all the Akazaya members reuniting along his past journies

When inurashi said "we told them countless time that the "Samurai" wasn't there" but wait wasn't Raizo a Ninja? o_O

This episode was fun and exciting. I just know that Toei will do a good job with extended scenes and filler. Just like the Marineford War. I just can't help but have a good feeling that they will do it nicely.

I see, so this is how they save the best parts for ep 1000. Maybe they will be highlighting luffy's fight scene...but who knows. I gotta admit this ep is not really hyped up other than the sulong transformation.

Even if it was another build up episode (expected knowing the 1000th episode is only 3 weeks away) we got some really exciting and epic moments, especially at the end with the Sulong transformations.

Queens reactions are absolute hilarious. He's one of the funniest characters in One Piece. Seeing only a couple hundred samurais attack and hearing a couple seconds later from everywhere that there are actually thousands of them was definitely a big surprise for him.

So Marco and Perospero really teamed up to fight against the beast pirates. Strange combo, but it surely helps. I'm already curious about Big Moms reaction if she hears about it lol.

I knew the building was pretty huge but when Kaido broke through the roof in his dragon form I realized how "big" it actually was.

Like I mentioned before the Sulong transformations where pure hype. Rody, BB, Giovanni, Shishilian and Concelot all looked awesome. The crackling sound effect and the lightning around them reminds me a lot on DBZ Super Saiyan 2 and 3 form. And now Cat Viper and Dogstorm are also about to get into their Sulong form. I'm super excited for next week.

The ending to this episode was beyond spectacular in my opinion. We first got graced with some new music while the minks were conversating, then were graced with one of the best songs from the OST as we prepare for the faceoff between the Animal Kind Pirates on the rooftop, in the moonlight. The culmination of these three factors made for one of the most intense and hyped moments that I've seen from One Piece in a while. This did nothing but build an immense amount of hype for episode 1000.

For me it was a nice episode because i skipped all the flashback lol but it ruined the fluidity.It was a very slow episdoe otherwise only 9 pages has been adapted on average of 12 and they were setup.
The art was meh but tranformation was cool and Toei is teasing they will extend the fight.
Overall better than Op chapter this week.
And I have been underestimating Perespero for long time now his anime and manga feat easily put him at Yc commander status.
Ps:Jack is still a jobber XD hope Toei gives him some justice

Slow ep, but the buildup was on point! They played all the main battle OSTs in this ep alone for each individual epic scene.

Luffy's proclamation from the last ep is met with an opposing statement ridiculing their lack of manpower, I'm glad they actually expanded the part showing how the Samurai numbered not in mere hundreds but in thousands. Got some very brief but greatly appreciated sequence of Zoro, Law and Kid battling it out before walking along the corridors as squads of samurai follow behind them, what a bunch of badasses.

In the last part though, Kaido has broken through the dome's ceiling and Jack follows suit, the Akazaya Samurai are about to face off against Kaido and with the army of minks behind them to support them by fighting against Jack's troops. Their transformations were drop-dead insane and I love it, mainly because the classic OST is playing, it adds to the atmosphere so effectively. I am really eager on witnessing the two minks' boss Nekkomamushi and Inuarashi transforming into sulong in full animated glory!

Damn... that was such an epic episode. The buildup was crazy good in this episode. Loved seeing the confidence the comrades have in the Straw Hats and finally that Minks turning into Sulong on the Full Moon night.

It's gonna be a hell of a showdown and Kaido has already turned into his dragon form which is concerning but so far, it looks good.

I don't really care if the following 2 episodes will be slow too. The 1000th episode has to be the GREATEST episode ever made otherwise imma cry my ass off.

Queen's reactions were hilarious. Poor guy really thought that they had no army hidden somehwere xD Calls kept coming..

Marco and Perospero teamed up afterall which is pretty smart to do so. They'll be enemies probably but for now, it's time to kick Kaido's ass. Queen's reaction once again xD Love him.

The second half of the episode was amazing, just amazing.
The sulong transformations were absolutely INSANE, espically the OST! Man, it feels so good to hear that. The sound effects and lightning hyped me up so much. I can't wait for the main transformation. Cat viper and Dogstorm will be DOPE.

Look, Oden is the Goat but Toei really needs to chill with the Oden flashbacks. Idk how many times they showed Oden scarring Kaido by now, they're practically showing it in every episode. They act like we didn't just have a wholeass backstory about that. Really hope it doesn't into the same case as with Naruto and its Obito flashbacks.

I think Yamato is too innocent for that, after all, her Father restricted her freedom for 20 years, and the fact that Kaido's subordinates calls her "young master", her title is much higher.

After getting such an amazing episode last week, Toei's back to its usual crappy ways. The recap took forever, as did the Sulong transformation sequences, the Oden flashback scenes have outlived their welcome, and pretty much everything else about the episode was slow.

At this rate episode 1000 almost certainly won't be anything special either and we've been misled into thinking that it'll actually be worth it. :/

THE BADASSERY! THE BADASSERY! First of all, does Big Mom really think 30,000 measly soldiers can take on Luffy?! Bro you're talking about the same guy who wiped out 50,000 with his Conqueror's Haki alone. Bro you're going to need the entirety of three whole worlds before you can even come close to slowing Luffy down.

Besides that Kaido and Big Mom start getting clapped from all angles. Marco and Perospero are working together on one end, Kid is terrorizing on another, Zoro and some samurai are clapping some cheeks, Law is moving in, the Akazaya are handling Kaido.

Queen is freaking out due to the overwhelming resistance and now he's slowly realizing they have no chance. Once Luffy entered the question any chance of Kaido's plans being a success went to negative chances.

Lastly we get to the big fight. Jack and his subordinates versus the Minks. Jack will be getting paid back for terrorizing Zou to look for Raizo. And not only will the Minks be fighting, but they'll be fighting in their Berserker Sulong Forms. We got Roddy and BB, the Whale Forest Guardians. Giovanni, Shishilian, and Concelot of the Dogstorm Three Musketeers. On Jack's end we got a dude named Nangi who can turn into a giant. This battle is just one branch of the endgame, in which Luffy kicks the asses of every enemy around him like he said in Episode 996.

I'm so excited for the incoming BADASSERY of One Piece!

Yeah this is completely FALSE. DO NOT EVER INSULT ONE PIECE, THE GREATEST FICTIONAL WORK IN EXISTENCE WITH THIS GARBAGE. ONE PIECE GETS BETTER WITH EVERY EPISODE AND IT HAS NO FLAWS WHATSOEVER (AND I'M SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THE ANIME BTW SINCE ANIME IS FAR SUPERIOR TO MANGA).

Where was the conclusion of Ulti and Yamato fight in this episode? Yamato was standing around as if she dealt with Ulti. This episode was a mistake and you know what else is a mistake? There was No Fan Service of note. Straw Hats are still 100% clean record of No loss. Not even a single Samurai Civilian taken down. This Story is not good display for the New World. Next episode I want to see Nami's Fan Service.

Given all the detail that is in the manga, Toei can stretch out this arc in the anime for 10 years if they want. And if they cut back on the flashbacks I'll happily go along with that.

Almost at ep. 1000, and this is how they promote it. A slow-ass ep. where over half is flashbacks, opening + preview from the last ep. What a shame. They really love to use the flashback/slow pace card. Darn you, Toei. The animation wasn't that great either and we didn't even see Inuarashi and Nekomamushi's transformations.
