LOL @ Sanji and Zoro waking up next to each other.

But apart from that, episode was kind of dull since it was character development.

That's why I find it not dull.

Luffy unsure why they couldn't get any fruit was funny.

Yeah, because developing characters is obviously a bad thing.

I liked this episode a lot because there was character development in it...but what was the point of showing that flower near Robin at the end of the episode? Was there a point to that flower or something?

I like Chopper as always he acts real cute....

Why do people always dis character development episodes? Why do you even watch this anime in the first place? One Piece is not always about fighting. Throughout the story it creates a bond between the characters and the person who watches the show. If anime is constantly barraging the viewer with the epic battles the epicness factor gets scaled down and the show loses it's charm. ahem...Bleach...ahem
I liked this one a lot. It told about Chopper's past and it was quite funny as well. <3 Zoro x Sanji & Robin x Chopper

I would say though, that one of the greatest qualities of One Piece is that it manages to be pretty focused on its characters while being essentially event based. Don't get me wrong, but I just think that this series doesn't work with conclusive episodes as well as building arcs. Still, this bunch of episodes was quite good, way better than some dull parts of Arabasta.

Dull jokes, awkward cuts, nothing of value gained except perhaps some Nico Robbin foreshadowing with that flower meaning something to her and a little bonding between her and Chopper. All of which could have been done in an episode that was much faster moving and could have introduced much more than these two little pieces of information. Better yet, if it really wanted to focus purely on these two it could have done it with a much bigger scope telling us more than it did literally and through body language and such. This episode was reminiscent to the first movies, to no surprise it felt like it was poorly emulating One Piece rather than the fact that it is One Piece.

Filler can range from awful like some of the Alabasta desert episodes, to mediocre like warship island arc, and to a good with decisions such as writing Ace into the story earlier than the manga. That being said, One Piece has not been favorable with our odds for good filler so I can't say I'm excited about this upcoming arc.

It's as if every single one of them forgot that Nico exists this whole episode but she doesn't have much of a presence to be fair. It was fun to see Chopper and her interact with each other since it made it a lot easier for us to warm up to her and we even got to know more about the Blue-Nosed Reindeer as a bonus.

Zoro using his cyclone slash and having all those excess fruits fall on him was hilarious.

GUYS there's a TITLE DROP in the beginning of the episode! Nami says to Chopper when telling him to watch the ship.."Just make sure to keep her in One Piece ok???" That got me ♥

Oh man, Sanji & Zoro waking up together like that really had me looking up their shipping fanart immediately. Sanji x Zoro 4ever

The whole sleep scene was so cute, Chopper asleep on the book & Luffy all over Usopp who's holding him, so cute! Why was Nami on the deck asleep? Navigating? It also sounded like she was sick as well, I was like oh shit not again!

Love Doctrine (she's lifegoals)

Yeah she sure is, I havn't been pulled in yet. I don't hate her, and I know she'll grow on me, just hasn't yet. She's too.... "cool" maybe? no real emotion yet.. I do like her vibe tho, I mean look at her set up at the end of the episode. She's got a chair, reading a book, with a candle, and a vase with a flower in it (guess pertaining to her power?)

yes! I thought so too, they all seemed to forget about her, Chopper on the boat pretending to be captain was so cute (was he pretending to be nami actually? lol what it sounded like)

-----------

All in all I enjoyed this episode. Chopper has a sad backstory yes, but he spent a long time with people he loved and they loved him. Loved seeing more of his backstory. He has it better than some.. *Cough* Nami *Cough*. Literally any backstory that doesn't include Vivi at this point I love! lol (disclaimer: I am not on the Vivi hating train I do like her, just the amount of backstory was a lil much)
For what it's worth I like Nico's nose, it's unique and makes her have a really cool look.

BRING ON THE NEXT ARC, but if you want to give me more fun episodes like this I will not complain :D
