The "D" in the names would have blown my mind if I didn't already know it was there :/

This episode set a lot of hype up for Arabasta. It looks like the character designs are getting more and more strange too xD

I loved this episode. The description about Barouqe Works was excellent. Also I loved the character interaction between the straw hats crew. Poor Viv's birdy thing...it got stuck in the river and froze.

Also who is Ace? A mysterious man at that. I can't wait until I see the Albastra arc....I love this show so much. It has everything in it but horror....

I'm glad it was Chopper joining the crew. I wished I never read spoilers about which crew members join the straw hats because now i'm not surprised...but I love Chopper he acts so cute like a cat.

This is one of my favorite episodes I saw so far and I only seen 91 episodes. This show is in the 500's...that is amazing. I can't wait to see season 4 get dubbed and I hope the movies get dubbed too!!!

Chopper and Usopp are my favorite Straw Hats....

I love them all though...their all interesting with lots of character and back stories...

I hope Fairy Tail the anime show is as good as One Piece...

Also I hope Bleach is as good as One Piece...

I have yet to see Fiary Tail and Bleach but I have both box sets of the first part or first season....

I love long running anime shows!!!

I watched them all!

Fairy tail and Bleach r pretty cool animes, but un-comparable to One Piece.
Watch them
Enjoy them
but my advice, try to take One Piece out of the picture cuz U'll lose Interest fast. Each has their own environment

First mentions of Ace chasing Blackbeard and of the "Will of D". I wonder how does Dr. Kureha know Gol D. Roger? Can't wait to see Bon Kurei's okama abilities.

And, please, never compare Bleach to One Piece. Allow me put this in perspective: If we were to judge them by the depth of the story, One Piece would be an ocean and Bleach would be a teaspoon. Fairy Tail is quite decent though.

I feel like this Ace guy is gonna be REEAALLLLLYYY important O__O i feel like he's gonna be Luffy's ultimate rival or something.
I just hope he isn't another one dimensional villain. Because so far the villains and the fights are the worst things about this show.
and what's with the D stuff. is Gol Roger supposed to be Luffy's father or something O__O Didn't Roger die like 20 years ago and Luffy is only 17 or something
Man this episode had way too many information, so confused right now.

Poor Karoo wanted to help Zoro and got frozen instead. It took Usopp awhile to be able to fight for the Straw Hats like that, so it seems that Karoo is a little bit more courageous than Usopp.

We got even more reason to love Dalton this episode! To atone instead of leaving he'll stay to strengthen the new country, something he learned from a very young Vivi. Flashback Vivi was adorable. I really hope we get to see how the country develops now that Wapol is gone, and since it's One Piece I'm sure we will eventually.

Ace seems funny, he was looking for the pirate who nearly single handedly destroyed a nation and when that didn't work he wanted to see Luffy. On top of that he put up this cool act but when he was confronted about not paying his bill he ran like a child.

I find it really charming that Gol D. Rodger turned into Gold Rodger as time went on.. and I just realized... Gol D. Rodger, Monkey D. Luffy?! Do these D's have a deeper connection?! Now I'm curious. I can't imagine it's a coincidence. The will of D is alive in both of them I suppose...........

I've always appreciated Luffy's straight forward responses. Through hearing about Crocodile being a warlord of the sea, and the 2000 members, and the whole beautifully explained structure of Baroque works, Luffy's only response is "So.. we just gotta beat up Crocodile right!".

This Arabasta man,this place sound awesome yo,you know what I mean and Crocodile,and Luffy thinks this is gonna be easy,Luffy is strong don't get me wrong but Crocodile is one of them,Pirates who defeat Pirates.

And Vivi's story has a kick I mean like she was so strong hearted and even Dalton was saying that.

And the guy with the Cap: "When you see Luffy tell him about me and he would know who I am" so he must be a friend of Luffy but Crocodile is gonna be there also. Shit's gonna go down yo.

And it's awesome that Chopper is onboard we can see Chopper as being a part of them with their sillyness and what not. And that part was funny when they see the bird and Chopper was running around asking for help,Chopper needs to get used to it that shit happens all that time that means nothing serious is going on.

They're finally arriving at Alabasta! I'm really glad that there weren't any transition islands this time. Ace made his reveal much earlier than expected. Not as early as Shanks but I'm still surprised.

Wapol showed that he really is an irredeemable asshole by striking a little kid on the head like it's nothing.

Crocodile and Nico Robin hype is real!

Oh boyyyy we're getting some spicy stuff finally!

So Luffy is somehow connected to Gold Roger after all, that's not that unseen but still surprised me, I didn't think they'd go that route, and that Ace guys I heard is a really like really really really important character, looking forward to seeing him again!

And finally we're getting old Nami's voice back, the new one was okay but I really love her original voice it fits her so much better, this show just keeps on giving!

Well, I like this reindeer kid.

That Ace guy isn't the same guy who did the big gust of wind to save Luffy from the marines at Loguetown, is he? We've got these mysterious new characters...sweet.

Gold Rogers' real name. How about that? All these old people that seem to have known Gold Rogers (whale guy, doctor lady), I guess they were on his crew maybe? And are now guardians of the Line and his treasure? Not to mention Luffy's of crew with Usopp's dad hanging around our there somewhere...

The back stories and world building are excellent. The fights not so much.

The mysterious guy called Ace wants to see Luffy in Alabasta in 10 days, Eh?. Can't wait to see an appearance of ace.

We finally know the real name of Gold Roger has a D in the middle same as Luffy. Is it Roger and Luffy a relative to each other?. We'll see...

Officer agents against luffy crew... Can't wait to see.

very nice way to hype up the Arabasta arc.
I'm gonna sit down here and watch them do it

Damn, Kureha placed Chopper's medical kit into the sleigh because he forgot to take it. She was like a true mom to him.

Ayo, isn't that Dragon, the same guy from Loguetown? Looks like the kingdom rulers were correct. Smoker did say to him that the World Government was desperate to catch him which means he must have become a pretty big threat to them. Idk why he had helped Luffy though. Father? Family member? Friend?

I'm surprised that Dalton already knew and recognized Vivi but decided not to reveal that to her.

Ayo, this new dude Ace looks so cold. Is he hunting Luffy? Is he his old friend or enemy?

The "Will of D"?? Is Kureha hinting at a possible connection between Luffy and Gold Roger? Luffy's long forgotten grandpa or smth? Also, just to be clear is it Gold Roger of Gol D. Roger? Because if it's the latter then Luffy might be his distant relative. Monkey D. Luffy and Gol D. Roger sure seem to be distant family members from this perspective lol.

We got a sneak peek of the 4 other officer agents. Bon Clay's design looks so goofy that no matter how dangerous he is, I can't take him seriously.

Hmm looks like Mr 3, 5 and their partners made out of Little Garden. Not sure how but seems like they'll still play some kinda role in this arc.

Our crew is finally gonna land in Alabasta.

Got a lot of new things revealed to us in this episode.
