Nice episode.

Looks like Big Mom isn't fond of her own daughter Lola blaming her as the reason she still hasn't beaten the other Yonkou yet.
Goddamn, that moment when Luffy stood upto Big Mom saying the reason she isn't still the pirate king is her own fault was badass and epic as hell. This is why I love Luffy. I'm gonna watch that over and over. XD

The action with Pedro was pretty good and he's doing a great job of distracting the guards.

Meanwhile Sanji hopes he was able to save everyone after having agreed to marriage, it's hardly gonna be as simple as that though.
Holy shit! I totally did not expect to hear Ode to Joy here, that was completely unexpected. xD

Pudding has her own issues of feeling too controlled by Mama, isn't surprising that she admires Lola for doing what she did.
A lot of flashbacks used in this episode but it was still pretty well done.

That Big Mom song was creepy and it's funny how she's singing that she won't get made cause she's gonna have cake and ends up getting mad.

Brook greatness incoming next week.

Also, it was nice to see Sanji be himself again.

I knew Luffy wouldn't retreat to Big Mom in their conversation. The moment when he was talking about why Big Mom isn't pirate king and Lola didn't married was so epic.

Hmm it seems like Sanji still thinks about Luffy and the others and hope that they're fine. The moment when he had his heart eyes and shout Pudding chuuuuuaaaan was funny :D

Damn Pedro is stronger as I thought. He didn't had any problems with all these soldiers. No even Smoothie is about to engage into the fight.

Big Mom is pissed. Not about Luffy but about the intruder. I hope Pedro will be fine.

Next episode Brook seem to have a big entrance. Can't wait to see his new ability.

Well, I just said that it will get more exciting (predictable for all major arcs). I never spoiled anything and never mention any name or event except that I want to see the wedding day (In anime)...

I did mention manga but never said anything in it.

In anticipation of a dialogue heavy episode, Toei really beefed up their staff for this one. I loved it.

Urata handled all the character acting, Takara did the excellent key animation, and as the horny Toei guy Tomita made all the girls super gorgeous and stood out.

According the AP, I think the next episode is going to be handled by Studio Guts and outsourced. It'll be interesting to see what they can do again.

That's a good point - just who would have such power that they could aid Big Mom in defeating the other three Emperors at the time? Is is someone who has already been shown to the Audience, or some unknown character?

Big Mom is a terrible mother, and, well, awful person in general ;_; Seriously, she won't even let Pudding choose her own wedding dress?! Gosh.

Sanji on the other hand looks a little more like himself, but it's easy to guess he's reeeally forcing it.

Big Mom doesn't care about any of her children so far from what has been presented to us. She uses them as tools to gain more political power on her side. I imagine it is to beat the other emperors and become the pirate king. I am not surprised, she did kill one of her children and didn't seem to make note of it afterward.

Pedro and Brook causing havoc I see. So far it is all going according to plan. Sadly, when it comes to the strawhats, rarely do things go smoothly.

Perhaps one of the many reasons why Sanji is unhappy despite making a deal to save everyone is that anyone in their right mind knows Luffy would rather choose to die than accept the compromise and leave. That is, unless something changed from Marineford. Or, so I think… I could be wrong as they did almost leave Usopp if he didn’t apologize to them. There is at least a modicum of possibility. By the way, I finished Water 7 in the manga the other day and Luffy waited in a room at all times for Usopp, just like he attempted to refuse moving here. It’s not made to be a big event and rather given in a line of dialogue but I thought that was a charming detail.

Pudding was shown to have looked up to her older sister Lola. She stated the same line that Lola did when it came to disobeying Mom to help Luffy “we’re family so she won’t kill me” and she’s certainly comparing herself to the free spirit that Lola was. This sets up her arc to be one of finally disobeying her family without fear of consequence it seems and this also retroactively made Lola a far more interesting character.

The quirk of Lola asking everyone to marry her and her zombie constantly seeking one man who didn’t want her is now more than the abhorrent admirer trope. Like with many characters such as Senor Pink, the act of something strange and potentially one dimensional now represents much more. Rather than feeling like a pawn who cannot even choose her own wedding dress and plays an unwanted part in the suffering of others like Pudding, a marriage of which she has no control, Lola took marriage completely into her own violation. Her zombie wanted to change a man’s opinion, she wanted to marry someone because it was her doing completely and there was no incentive on the other side, in fact a negative incentive. Her human self asked people to marry her completely on her own incentive. That must be an empowering thing to do, a rejection of the lack of control you had under Mom, a statement that you now have control, and that you are now free. The fact that I ‘admire’ this ‘abhorrent admirer’ now surprises me and I really respect what Oda did with this. That is not even mentioning the fact that she potentially saved the world from Big Mom’s tyranny by rejecting to marry someone who would set Mom up to beat the other emperors, not mentioning Blackbeard and mentioning Whitebeard to suggest she meant in the last era of course. Awesome stuff, seriously! The callback of the vivre card is making strong pay off by linking an old supporting cast deeply into the present.

Luffy, still locked up, tried to provoke some conflict with Mom but she controlled her rage. It creates an endearing character trait, Mom attempting to control her emotions for the sake of self interest, but slowly being pushed to the state of rampage that we initially saw her in, destroying her capital. What triggered her rage, the straw that broke her back, was Brook and Pedro’s plan going into action. I am so eager to see more of this, I’ve wanted more focused Brook content for ages. Due to the opening I’m somewhat expecting Pedro to take on Tamago with the loaded history they have, and Brook to take on Smoothie if this all goes wrong. Speaking of Smoothie, her character is not much explored just yet, her eagerness to fight and her comments on that being fun do create an aura of a warrior who loves her job, but her design has absolutely won me over. She is unique and attractive. Perhaps surpassing Nami’s bountiful chest that has taken a constant spotlight. Speaking of that, now is the time to say I have embraced fanservice, as the pace slowed down, it’s at least good at keeping attention!

I didn’t even find a good time to fit in the Tamate box during this post. Wasn’t that full of the pills Hordy used? The ones that had a bad side effect of stealing your life away and making you a shriveled up old man? Well if Mom had a chance to use those then at least she has lifesteal and can possibly counteract the downside. That said, she should be in for a surprise when she finds out what’s really inside.

I thought that Big Mom of all people would love her children unconditionally but it looks like she only loves them as much as they can be of use to her... I probably shouldn't have been surprised since I saw her straight up killing one of them just because of her cravings but it was very disturbing to see that she was so willing to have Lola killed for running away.

I wonder who Lola almost married, hm. Nami must've been so horrified to find out that her friend's Vivre Card put a giant target on her back... If only Hody and his pals weren't the ones who opened the Tamate Box at the time, huh.

Pedro's awesome and it looks like Brook's finally getting back on the spotlight after quite a while!
