| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Holy crap! this is one great episode. I loved it! Bloody Zoro is the Shit! Even though it covered only 1 chapter, I think this episode was fine, pace wise. the 'Lion song' (Shishi Sonson) attack looked great as well. I am satisfied with this episode and waiting for the subs. |
 |
| The beginning was really slow. But once it started GODDAMN! Really great artwork, excelent voice acting, and Zoro looked like a freaking bad ass! I also like the way they ended it. I was afraid it would get censored. But there he was, all bloody including the area around him. Zoro is now officially just as GAR as Simon, Kamina and Captain Harlock! These are the kind of episodes that make One Piece stand out of the shounen crowd |
 |
| Zoro = epitome of GAR. I'm so glad the anime adaptation did the manga justice. |
| Now, THIS is how you do a great episode. The animation was freaking awesome, the voice-actors did a fantastic job, and while the start was slow, the second half was absolutely freaking perfect. They managed to turn what I originally thought was a rather anti-climactic ending into one of the best episodes in ages. |
| Really good episode.. zoro was so imba. This is how you make an excellent episode. |
 |
| beginning was a waste of episode time!!! rest was great. |
 |
| such a good episode :O great job on animation, music, voice acting, and everything. |
| Same here, I liked the 15 last minutes (as for the 6 first they only repeat what's known) Zoro is the Guy! |
     |
| This was one of the better one piece episodes. i wish Zoro would of just give away Luffy's head. That would of made this episode so mutch better! Still a awsome ep by One Piece standerds! |
| "Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise" |
| Unusual way to "deal with" Kuma (I guess), at least he kept his word. Though I spoiled myself to most of these details a while ago, it was interesting to finally hear something about Vegapunk and such. Zoro is the man. The Lion's Song attack was awesome. |
| Best line ever ... Sanji: What are you doing here? Zoro: Nothing ... at all. |
     "There is no such thing as God in this world." -Setsuna F. Seiei |
| Zoro totally has my respect for what he did. I'm super glad that they kept true to the manga on this episode. Yeah it was slow, but the bloody ending made up for it. |
| I reject your reality, and substitute my own. |

 |
| wow! that was a great episode! |
 |
| God Damn It. Even reading it was so awesome, now this awesome scene was animated. This truly was one of the most awesome and epic episodes ever. I'm gonna cry T.T |
 |
| Zoro ;__; That has to be the best episode in a while and they really made this look more painful than in the manga...which is awesome! Hopefully things start to speed up a bit >.> |
 |
| Really nice episode. I enjoyed the Zoro-focus, him being my favorite character and all. Animation and art was excellent from what I could tell. I still prefer the "Nothing at all!" translation to the one used in VS' subs. I dislike the fact that Zoro had to beg, it really takes away from his character for me. |
| Hmmmmmm, I overall liked the episode, but I still hate how much new stuff we always get with airing anime. How far in were we when we saw new images ? Like 6-7 minutes already ? But DARN , Zoro and Sanji really come after Luffy in both power of body & spirit.... Zoro was so damn awesome this episode !! I wonder too what the story is behind Kuma knowing Dragon !! :O |
| What's the defintion of Badass?? look in the dictionary you'll find "ZORO".. I mean omg this guy can't stop being badass, that's why we'll always love this char. and oh yea the ep. was excellent, voice actors were amazing, overall it kicked ass.. |
 |
| Way too good to be true!! The episode will be in the hall of fame of One Piece for a lot of time, at least for me!! Now, I'll say it louder than any time before... ONE PIECE ROCKS!!! |
 My Claims: |
 |
| :o That is an awesome gif scorpedo! |
|
| Amazing episode. I got chills when Zoro was all bloody at the end. The animation was a bit different in this episode. I liked how it emphasized the scenes when Zoro and Sanji were standing there breathing heavily. This was really one of the best episodes in a while. |
     |
| Awesome Episode. ZORO KICKS ASS!!! HE IS THE BEST!!! |
| I cried, lol. |
 |
Hanayome said: Loved the ep! Really epic. really good!  |
| Very good! Zoro demonstrated its loyalty in this episode! Very well Zoro! And... does not die! |
 |
| Lulz at Kuma's Cero blast. |
 |
| looks like scorpedo & Zoro were effected by Roronoa Zoro's AWESOMENESS so have I, I just changed my profile pic :) in honor of him!! |
| "Every man shall reap what he has sown, from the highest lord to the lowest gutter rat. And some will lose more than the tips off their fingers, I promise you. They have made my kingdom bleed, and I do not forget that" |
| Manly tears were shed. That was Zoro's finest moment (so far) as the first mate of the Strawhat Pirates. |
    |
| Awesome episode, a little slow in the beginning, but the rest of the episode is perfect! |
     |
| ZERO is my hero. I have never seen a character as cool and strong as zoro. I mean he seriously is a great friend and comrade. He never gives up omg he is sooo awesome |
     |
| I wish I could return to those happy days when I had just discovered One Piece and I could see 20 episodes in a row xD Now only one every week...AW DAMMIT. I wish for a double-triple or more episode xD |
| If before Zoro was my only 98% my fav character,with this episode he's 100% I read the manga before and i knew what was gonna happen but the episode still had an amazing impact on me*bounciung up and down like a rabid one piece fan* this anime never gets old |
 |
| As much as I enjoyed this episode, I find everyone surviving an atomic bomb grade attack in one piece (no pun intended) absolutely ridiculous. I mean, c'mon, Brooke of all people should be in a million little bony pieces after experiencing castle-leveling pressure Next episode: Luffy learns kamehameha! |
| Jesus christ....they just keep layering it on! O_o |
| This is my favourite episode so far... Zoro was my number one character but now...lol...he is awsome. It really looked more painful than in the manga especially with his bloody eyes in the end... And the voice actors did very very well... I can't stop thinking of it... |
 |
| Amazing ep. great animation and loved the Lion's song technique. And now Zoro is even more of a BA...he is truly the strawhats first mate!! |
| Just catching up with the series now. But my god this was just an incredible episode. I mean Zoro really was ready to lay down his life for Luffy and the crew. There was no guarantee that he'd survive. Even though he had his dreams, he still did what he had to do. I don't even want to imagine what he endured before Sanji found him. Zoro is without a doubt the definition of a bad ass. Just don't have the words to describe that last scene. |
| ittoryu iai... SHISHI SONSON! |
| ..Zoro |
 |
| Lately Zoro has been moving up my favorite characters list, but this episode sent him up to the top, even past Luffy(the previous #1, now #2). It's the episodes like these that keep me watching this show! |
| Loss at words. Best episode by far, I'd give this 10 cursed katanas out of 10 possible. |
