| the episodes are getting shorter and shorter. first half was disappointing, with the still shots and badly animated fighting sequences. the animation has been under average for a long time now so that weren't a surprise really. the second half makes up for it with the flashbacks and entrance of luffy, so overall 3/5. |
Things are only getting more intense. I loved how Whitebeard decided to deal with his frustrations over Oars Jr.'s death. He took that giant and folded him up like he was a child. As for Garp, I can see how this is tough him. Go ahead Garp, let those manly tears flow. |

njasis said: the episodes are getting shorter and shorter. No they're not. The previous episode recap was even shorter than usual. |
 |
| Epic entrance from Luffy. I'm glad our wait is finally over and now the battle can fully begin. We would have been able to see a bit more if it wasn't for those flash backs, but it was a great episode nonetheless. Was that pink haired kid part of the manga? He doesn't add anything to the story and should be cut out IMO. I see more Buggy scenes in the future as well about him becoming pirate king which just slows down the progress. |

| >= ) can't wait! |
| "One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it." Oogway |
| Whitebeard owned that Giant Vice-Admiral in one attack O.O Garp's reaction when Luffy arrived was EPIC XD |
| This is a signature. |
| OMGOSH FRIGGIN EPIC X__x Next wek cant come fast enough!! Feels like im gunna die of excitement!! Garp getting all emotional was just so touching and Don Flamingos speech SO FRIGGIN TRUE! Loved it ~ But luffys entrance was the best like.. xDD all the faces like omgoshh!! LIKE OMGOSHH YEYY XDD CANT WAIT >__< *hyperventilates* <3 <3 <3 |
 |
| awsome ending, finally luffy is falling =D can't wait >.< |

I simply asked a question since people have been saying that the Buggy scenes about becoming Pirate King were not part of the manga. So, how about answering the question rather than trying to belittle me. |

LoL dude its in the anime and in the first few episodes of One Piece how can you forget Coby( chubby kid ) its like the 2nd char introduced in OP together with Luffy. Go watch first 5 eps of OP. |

He's now in the Navy and kind of become a bit of a badass. He's going through shellshock right now. He gets a kind of important moment later so just stick around. Seriously, I think most people, like me, are just surprised that Oda even remembers who Coby is so he gets a pass for freaking out like this. And yes, he's canon. |

I have to admit I did word what I was trying to say wrongly, so I can understand why I might have got the reaction I got. I wasn't trying to question his relevance to One Piece as a whole just the attention he's been getting in this arc, but since he's part of this arc in the manga as well, then I guess his scenes are necessary even though they're kind of annoying. |
|
| Loved at the very end when Luffy and co. were falling from the sky! Garp and Hancocks reactions were the best XD |
 |
| Finaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallly luffy ... i was very glad when i saw him.. It is hilorious when he fall of the sky......The old's man crying was effective...It wastouching ...... |

| Long death is looooooooooooong. Was all that agony really necessary? But the following was great. And yes, my emotions swapped fastly in the end, too. Alchemistx4 said: Thanks man.

You don't need to give that much attention to manga's fidelity. Anime is one work. Manga is another work. Coby is annoying in the anime and in the manga. Most characters have their finest time, but he basically is very coward. Despite, Helmeppo (his blonde friend) is more annoying to me. (Remember his past against Luffy) I don't read the manga, and I don't worry about it. Anime is fine to me. And that Buggy talks... well, they're predictable and funny, and fits perfectly with him. So, everybody, just enjoy. |
| LOL!!! I prefer Luffy's entrance than WB's xD HAHA |
     |
| usually when a character gets more screentime that means that something will happen with him later.. so shut up and watch the show :P Coby will be awesome in the end of the arc.. he was always awesome |

| Disliked it. It was slow paced, i didn't like the flashback with garp and Ace. Only liked the last minute when Luffy appears. I never thought I would be happy to see Luffy, since he's far away from being a character I like. |
| It is getting better and better but man does it suck we have to wait a week for every episode, this one again was pretty slow with so much oars-ace, random - ace screens for too long... ofc it is epic and don't want it to be over really soon but too slow is also not good ^^ |
| Finally Luffy makes his appearance! Looking forward to the next episode, as always ^^ |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| The start was kind of bad with all the Ace-Kun again. I started praying that OZ junior will die already so that we can continue. It had it's good moments like Whitebeard destroying that vice admiral(although i wanted better sound effects and bigger impact with his head and the floor) and Don Flamingo making his usually crazy body control tricks. In the end a mediocre episode since it has it's moments but it was mostly stalling.

I don't know who told you that but Buggy's crazy dreams are not only in the anime. The only difference is that in the anime they show him even more when they wanted to kill some time. |

| Awesome episode, finally Luffy arrives. |
 |
| I expected their arrival at the end of the episode and now I can't wait to see the next episode~ The moment between Garp and Ace was touching, I loved it. |

 |
| Great moments and great dialogue, plus nice how they added to Garps flashback. I literally rewatched Luffys entrance a couple of times, funny. |
| This episode was epic. It was dramatic and badass at the same time. I love the ending when Luffy is falling through the sky: "The sea below us is frozen!" "We're all gonna die!" "Wait, I'm made out of rubber, I should be fine!" "Then you'll be the only survivor!" |
| IG: @ChrisCrossCrash "There isn't a single guy who doesn't want to spoil his girl." --Amagami SS |
| You can't help but feel sorry for Garp in this episode. I love the way Luffy and Co. drop in to the battle...only Luffy would arrive like that XD |
 |
| LOLZ!!!!!! Very typical of a strawhat crew member to have an entrance like TAT!!! XD, man, I ROLF and got really pissed that we will have to w8t another week for the next ep. & the flashback scene was very funny too!! XD |
 |
| Seems like the production value has increased! I might watch some more. |
| Was a gooood episode. Hopefully he will show his Haki sooner or later |
  |
| Scene between Garp and Ace was so sad, I teared up. :( Imagine having to choose between honour and family like that. >< But.. loved Luffy and gang's entrance haha. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| The way WB destroyed a giant with one hand was truly magnificent, what a warrior. Luffy once again makes his epic show entrance! |
 |
| Epic entrance Luffy! WOOT finally!!!! Let the fun begin!!!!!!! |
| it's silly how I am crying because of garp and then laughing because of luffy's gang! |
| Finally some Whitebeard action! His fighting style is amazing! That earthquake to the head was really badass! :-D I how there's more fighting of him in the latter episodes. I'm starting to detest Doflamingo and Akainu.. there's something fishy about them.. I like the scene where Garp was trying to raise up Luffy and Ace to be respectable marine.. it must be heart-wrenching for Garp in feeling he let down in being a father figure for the brothers.. Next episode will again be the return of Luffy! Yea! haha |
   |
| This is what I call one hell of an entrance xD Was amazing ^.^ I Hope they save Ace!! |
| Garp's part was the main attraction. I wish he wouldn't cry though. Ace is also specially pathetic, just sitting there and bawwing all the damn time, it's in total contrast to his attitude when he was in the prison. Also luffy's part was stupid. His carefree characteristics are too overused. I wish he would get serious more often. The last time he got serious was in Amazon Lily afaicr. |
| whitebeard owns a vice-admiral and STILL doesn't move! also i cried with that sitting scene between garp and ace. wtf, poor grandpa. hi luffy. |

| Finally. |
 |
| Time for more action.. Was hoping garp would do something.. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
vizhmaster_vizhu said: Garp's part was the main attraction. I wish he wouldn't cry though. Ace is also specially pathetic, just sitting there and bawwing all the damn time, it's in total contrast to his attitude when he was in the prison. Except Ace is seeing his friends dying. If you were an overpowered guy who have always been able to take care of yourself and your friends and suddenly it turns out that you can't even move while those around you die, I'm pretty sure that you wouldn't be laughing at the situation. Garp made this episode, anyway. He's one of those characters who become easily likeable and seeing him in such a weak emotional position was devastating. And it was a great change of pace. Marineford so far has been a constant "let's discover this new overpowered guy" and it needed something like this. I didn't like that much Doflamingo's speech (talk about lack of spontaneity). But despite that this episode is still the best we've had in this war. And Luffy's epic entrance is epic. |
| That part with garp and ace had me almost tearing up mann.. haha nice entrance by luffy though! |
