| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I still can't fully fathom the events which have taken place during the Reverie and it's damn nasty that we get blueballed like this, not just regarding Im, but also all political talk we miss out on. I would've loved some chapters dedicated to some talk about the affairs of the One Piece world. I also have no idea why exactly the picture of Luffy and Teach was there. Because they're the most dangerous pirates of the new generation or because of the D? We can only guess, but a connection to Void Century, the D clan/Great Kingdom which was in possession of the Ancient Weapons and the potential friendship with the Nefertari family(maybe?) are some interesting aspects in this episode. @SuperRed It's been pretty much exactly a year since chapter 908 came out and MAL forums were down. |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| At long last, the ultimate threat makes his/her debut in the anime. This was one of my favorite moments in the manga from last year. Despite all the good stuff, the recaps definitely made me not as invested as I should have been. At least hearing We Go again was cool. The Sabaody Reunion arc is probably highly underrated. |
| Finally HE makes his appearance, the lurking legend. At last we know that there is some major villain hiding in the shadows that are even above the gorusei. How ever i do feel very bad about anime fans since this arc was one of the best in the manga. To see it reduced to this is just unfortunate. I wish anime only fans can understand this and try to enjoy it for its canon moments. That is really all i hope. Don't let the recap/fillers blind you to what is really transpiring here in the story. In any case people keep saying reverie is over now. This is NOT the end of reverie i garuntee you. In fact its only barely begun. It will return and when it does, it probably be in more full force. We already know this is going to happen. This little intermission before wano is barely the tip of the iceburg. How ever for now, its time to start getting excited about Wano cause its starting very soon, though next episode is going to have more WB war flashbacks, count on it. There is no way in hell can adapt like 5 pages into a full episode next week. |
  |
| I just realize how cool Gorosei/Five Elders outfit when they meet Im-sama. I didn't realize it when i read it on manga. And Wano Kuni is close, they already attach PV for Wano on the end of episode.Next Episode we will see Marco The Phoenix |
 |
| Oh wow who is this Im-sama? Looks formidable af. Other than that, yay another recap, said no one ever. |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| W̶e̶l̶l̶ ̶a̶n̶o̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶e̶p̶i̶s̶o̶d̶e̶ ̶f̶i̶l̶l̶e̶d̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶ ̶f̶l̶a̶s̶h̶b̶a̶c̶k̶s̶.̶ .Lets not talk about that. Other then that I am curious about the Im-sama. Thou since wano starts on 7/7 dun thnk a lot will happen in this arc but lets see. |
 |
| Imu sitting on the chair is such a crazy moment. Too bad we won't learn more about the character for another few years. Hopefully we get less flashbacks starting next episode. |
 |
| Wait a second, wasn't no one allowed to sit on the throne, who is this Im fellow? and why he sitting on luffy's future throne? |
 |
| So seems like we get a new villain, maybe someone who will replace Sakazuki and Blackbeard as the final one? Hard to be hyped if more than half of the episode is flashbacks again though... |
Gator said: So seems like we get a new villain, maybe someone who will replace Sakazuki and Blackbeard as the final one? Hard to be hyped if more than half of the episode is flashbacks again though... Although imu sama is definitely a major new threat introduced in the series. I highly doubt he will surpass Blackbeard in the end. I think oda has always meant for blackbeard to be the end game villian that clashes with luffy. Although it may be some time cause clearly blackbeard wouldn't stand a chance right now. |

G_Spark233 said: Hopefully we get less flashbacks starting next episode. Famous last words. Some Marineford + Zou flashbacks and new stuff with Whitebeard's childhood. |
Haha. --- I have been waiting for this episode since Sterry wanted to sit on the throne. Since then I probably kept mentioning how the arc got butchered. I loved it how in the manga one of the chapter is about: "NOONE shall sit on the throne, as it is the symbol of peace, equality, blahblahbla" Next chapter: *some slim disney-princess-looking fella casually sits on the throne while the highest authorities kneel, and ask for a name* Hopefully it wasn't so bad for anime-only watchers tho, I don't know. Another thing I was looking forward to was seeing Im, and especially his eye. Probably many of us thought he might be Mihawk, or related to him somehow. That wasn't a strong theory, and now we know that it's not yellow, it's a red eye, I guess it's not exactly a valid theory anymore. Anyways, I'm glad we are approaching the Wano arc, but as someone already mentioned, there are like 5 pages left, and unless there will be a break, we got 2 more eps before the Wano arc. Flashback-time!!! |
| These flashbacks are getting super annoying! But at least the episode had a good ending. Interesting to see that the empty throne that represented the free world, was indeed not empty. |

| Bo bo bo bo bo bo bo boringgggg |
| Old memories, yeah yeah but we need get eyes straight to future. |

From the moment he was introduced, I'm convinced that he is, and that he will be the final villain, and honestly I can't wait to see his downfall  Also PS: Next week Marco is back |

| ....And when we finally thought the flashbacks was over, then boom - more flashbacks! xD Next time I suppose there will be flashbacks of Whitebeard and the parts where he were participating in the Paramount war. I suppose flashbacks won't end before we get to the Wano arc. So there is a "king" who is sitting on the top. He is plotting to kill Shirahoshi. Hmm, well this is interesting. He may want to keep the hatred between the fishman species and humans, but I think it's more likely he wants to get rid of her since she can control sea beasts. That's a dangerous weapon which can be a threat against the World government. I am really curious what Shanks said to the top leaders. Seeing Marco with glasses was unusual actually. He looks cute with them. Looking forward to see him. |
 |
| Besides the fact we got flashbacks again, there were also some very interesting moments in this episode. It seems the big discussion between all the kings has begun. I'm sure Luffy will definitely be a topic. The craziest part for me was when the 5 elders met that "Imu-sama". Who the heck is this guy and why is he sitting on the throne? His eyes looked creepy (he has the One Piece Sharingan it seems haha). I also don't really understand the meaning behind the pictures of Luffy, Blackbeard and Shirahoshi laying ripped at the ground. Pretty strange. The Wano Kuni arc is close. I hope it starts soon, I don't want to wait anymore >.< |

Ah I see, good to know. Thanks! :) You could say that the very next episode is actually wano, considering this small reverie arc finished with the last episode. But there is a bit of character world building before the actual act of wano commences and if they are saying its july 7th. Then yes expect alot more recap. |

For you personally, did you like the Wano arc in the manga? If you have not read it before. Prepare to be quite amazed. Alot of work went into this arc ambitiously and its clear that oda has been wanting to write this one for a long time. It will exceed and subvert your expectations like no other arc of one piece has managed to do. I don't think you will be disappointed. |

| Sabo had a small talk with the revolutionary army commanders and talked about when the straw hat pirates trained for two years and met at Sabaody Archipielago. The kings and queens of the kingdoms affiliated to the world government met and levely started. The five elders talked about Cobra’s petition to talk with them, later, they met and knelt to a woman in the empty throne (she had Luffy, Blackbeard and Shirahoshi’s photos). Almost all the episode was filler, remembering what happened in the two years time skip, the only interesting thing is the last scene, I have no idea who that woman is. |

| If you thought Blackbeard was the ultimate villain of this series....you have another thing coming. Shit is about to get real. |
 |
| I hate click bait titles. 'It finally begins' after 15 minutes of flash backs. Not that I was expecting any less. That aside it seems we are finally getting to see the true enemy of the world. I have been deadly curious ever since Donflamingo said he had orders that went far above Sengoku. I am going to assume this is who it was~ |
"When everyone else is about to give up, the fighter who becomes the role model, is the true Leader."  |
| I'm not sure if Im/Imu is shredding and stabbing these characters' pics for the pleasure of if Im/Imu is targeting them, but I'm gonna interpret that as Im/Imu targeting these characters. Im/Imu is targeting: A yonko with more than 1 devil fruit power, and a new kid on the block that has been gaining notoriety really quickly. Both of which are part of the D family. Aside from that, Im/Imu is also targetting one of the 3 ancient weapons; Shirahoshi AKA Poseidon. But I'm not sureabout Vivi. She's not targeted at least since her pic is not damaged in any way. Maybe because she's a descendant of the Nefertari family who stayed on the surface? 1 thing for sure is that Im/imu is the one above them all, the leader of leaders. If Gol D Roger is a pirate king, an advocate of freedom. Then Im/Imu is the king of the world, an advocate for control |

It has been confirmed that the reverie will return and I am sure many of those questions and possibly even more clarification on the reverie events and political talks of the world will be the focus of attention when the story returns to that point. So just be patient, its unlike oda to not tie up loose threads like that. Natsu88 said: link9us said: If you have not read it before. Prepare to be quite amazed.

Now I'm even more excited as I was before. Thanks for sharing this. :) Yeah its also the only arc in the series so far to be represented differently. Unlike other arcs in one piece, fans can actually foresee the structure of the arc and where the momentum and tension will continue to build as the story progresses. Also wano probably has to be the most unpredictable story arc in the series so far which makes for a more satisfying and rather engaging experiencing i think because its hard to predict whats going to happen next. Oda has consistently blindsided us more times then i can count. |

| @link9us They announced it during Jump Festa, but I still think they will delay the shift to the reverie. And I'm not worried that he won't get to it at all, but I doubt that we will get as many details as I would prefer( my wish wouldn't be feasible anyway) Also doesn't change the fact that the wait is killing us this time. He should've made the Reverie about 20 chapters long and delayed Wano instead, unless we will get crucial info which will influence our perspective on the current manga events. |

| They repeated some of the same flashbacks of the previous episode, awful, just plain awful Toie. The only good thing about this chapter was Im-Sama's scene, flawless. To think that I watched this episode in less than 8 minutes. |
 |
| Lol empty throne my hairy ass who the hell is bitch? |
 |
| Wow this recap episode was very boring. Last minute was good though. |
| For me, soms scenes in One Piece are just engraved inside my mind. The ending of the SA arc is one of them. Seeing Luffy in despair while his friends are getting sent away is just cruel and so well animated at the same time. Still give me goosebumps everytime i think about it. |
 |
| Oh shit I think it's SHANKS!And the final obstacle to get the ONE PIECE |
