Big Mom's scene was underwhelming for the most part.

Ahhh fine episode today, no Yamato furry form for now. I'm loving the padding for Yamato. It should be
1 minute long. All the reaction padding should've went towards Yamato instead.

GOD the Super Saiyan SFX is back and it sounds so awful.... but they re-used Henry Thurlows animation asset for Zoros aura
from episode 1018 onto this episode... Which is even worse. Only difference is, it's purple.

Not thrilled that we had to see Orochi make his way to the sliding doors and peep twice.  That was a waste of time. I'd rather they had stayed with Zorro or gone back to the fire spectre. 

I was worried about Zorro for a sec.  Wasn't that Geisha Momo"s sister? It's been so long since we've seen her I forget.  I'm wondering if the power is in hr, the shimasen , or the song? It doesn't matter as long as it helped Zorro. 

I guess it's good that Brook and Robin fell into Fuga's hair and that he's following Yamato.  Robin's devil fruit powers will probably come in handy. (pun unintentional...seriously it was!)

I thought it was a well known fact that their heads were made of rubber kinda like Tigger.  
When he said that and Zorro said he didn't know I pity laughed. LOL

I was happy for pacing they finally animated one whole manga chapter into one episode unlike previous episodes Ifrit Jambe and King of Hell are near. Thank heavens

One piece anime only fans are not even going to be able to adapt to future story lines after wano. Its just so different! and Jokes on TOIE because they won't even be able to pad shit out anymore as oda has dramatically increased the pacing of his story post wano. Even if it was padded, there is so much going on, that we probably wouldn't see that much of a difference. Though I don't want to downplay wano to much. Its still a great arc and preferebly better to marathon then watch week to week. How ever, after such a along story arc, rest assured, the Final episodes will not dissapoint.

Manga reader here. The only good thing about this episode is Zoro vs King, other than that it's a garbage ass episode. I don't know why they decided not to finish orochi's part in this episode. I mean if they cliffhanger at orochi, who's gonna excited for orochi in the next episode. They are dragging one piece to the point of annoyance. We are in the endgame of wano, if they don't end a villian in an episode then it will be boring as hell. With this kind of pace, TOEI can't finish wano in the next 2 years .

With Big Mom's tremendous strength gains from the last episode, Law and Kid seem to be having an even harder time taking her down. I wonder if they have anything else up their sleeves that could turn this fight around. For the moment they seem rather helpless.

The castle gradually develops into a burning hell. Since Kazenbo has now even reached the basement, it is not far from the armory and thus from the explosives. I can't even put my finger on how to stop this thing. Maybe Brook, Robin or Yamato has an idea. What actually happened to the CP-0 agents? I actually assumed that they would catch fire when they came into contact with Kazenbo.

Unfortunately, Zoro has never had an equal or even stronger opponent to push him to his limits. With King, unfortunately, it seems like this is almost too much of a challenge, because you don't often hear Zoro say he probably has no chance of winning. What was that weird attack anyway, with King elongating his head? I almost felt like he had Luffy's Devil Fruit for a brief moment. I also have no idea what was going on with Enma. It responded to the song Kumorasaki was playing on the shamisen and started sucking out Zoro's haki? Hopefully in the next episode we'll get more info on what it's all about. 

Did Toei really not have any other material to fill out the episode other than throwing in the Orochi scene twice? That felt really bad.

Let's hope the pacing gets better next week.

A downgrade from last week's episode, but it did have some good scenes. Toei is saving their animators for the next few episodes, it's excellent because the manga chapter that was adapted to this episode was kind of like a stepping stone to all the action that is to come (Chapter 1032).

lol am I the only one who thoroughly enjoyed this episode? Not sure why people are complaining about the shamisen thing or how that equates to bad pacing. As a manga reader, knowing what's to come for him makes me even more invested.

King doing his pteradon thing always cracks me up. I couldn't quite figure out what he was doing from the manga but it all makes sense now that I've seen it in anime form. Doesn't make it less weird tho.

this arc has lasted almost 170 episodes, despite nothing fucking happening. this is not the worst anime ever, it is the worst piece of fiction ever conceived in the minds of men. it is an affront to reason and to the practice of writing. the creator should be locked away in solitary confinement until the end of time.

big mom has devolved into only knowing how to say mama mama
for real how many times she says that every episode has to be like 10 every time shes on a episode its just cringe at this point

and how the F did they cut from zoro at the end in a moment like that to that retard orochi, this is how you know they dont know what they are doing with this anime worst pacing of all times in anime history and 99% of the episodes are soooo poorly directed they need to change directors cuz clearly someone doesnt know how to do their job

Big Mom, now a BIGGER Mom, continues her attack on Kid and Law. Luckily, Law and Kid are able to avoid getting their cheeks penetrated. Izo has Marco fly him towards the giant specter because of his concerns about the castle being on fire. That specter BTW is Kazenbo.

While Kazenbo is still causing havoc, Brook and Robin continue running from CP-0 and it seems that Apoo, Fuga, and X Drake are all still running after Yamato. BRO YAMATO HAS SOME BUSINESS TO TAKE CARE OF! STAY OUT OF HIS WAY. Robin and Brook happen to drop onto Fuga’s hair and while CP-0 catch up, Kazenbo drops in out of nowhere. Orochi is just sitting by himself getting overly excited about this suicide attack, and then all of a sudden we hear someone playing one of those Wano stringed instruments and the woman playing it has the same hairstyle that Hiyori wore as Komurasaki.

It seems that Momonosuke has accomplished his mission and created Flame Clouds to stop Onigashima.

While Zoro is fighting against King, King pulls a part of his face face and he starts looking strange. He then launches with an attack called Imperial Deep Pride Stake. It’s so fast that Zoro can’t react. King talks about how Pteranodons used to do this to hunt prey. King then starts firing off some fire like a machine and Zoro starts running. Zoro wonders if the flame on King’s back is also a Pteranodon’s feature, but King clarifies that it wasn’t. Zoro then decides that it’s finally time to attack with Enma, so he prepares it and then uses Three-Sword Style: Black Rope Dragon Twister. It seems that King is unaffected though, because dinosaurs are very durable. King then pulls out his sword and starts having an ordinary sword fight with Zoro, just like he wanted it. Zoro gets knocked back while he’s trying to strategize and all of a sudden, that stringed instrument comes back. We learn the instrument is a shamisen. Enma starts activating out of nowhere.

Orochi decides to figure out who the shamisen player is, and we see that it was indeed Hiyori! What is she planning?!

I CAN’T WAIT FOR MORE ONE PIECE!

yeah at least 50 percent of the wano arc is people running down a hallway talking to each other. in fact, i think it took half a dozen episodes just to get down one hallway.
