| Lol I was expecting like the Phantom Troupe or something, those agents were quite...something. I actually think Buggy is cooler tbh XD Miss Double finger was pretty cool though, y'know apart from the name... So it turns out the guy we saw a while ago was actually Koza! I didn't think that stuff would end up tying in so nicely, but whaddaya know? Color me impressed, I guess. Looks like the story is picking up a bit, at least for now. Also I can't be the only one who thinks that Koza looks like a blonde Captain Kuro, right? |

| My favorite part about this arc is probably the assassins who work for Baroque Works because they are all such cool and unique characters, it's pretty cool |

| That old dude lost a ton of weight, the desert struggle yo. |

| I can't say I enjoyed the first half of the episode. Seeing the evil guys act like they were mentally retarded for 10 minutes felt like a waste, I wish we had gotten it done much quicker. Perhaps Mr. 2 could have been doing his dance and singing while we were meeting the others. At least Mr.1 and Paula are vaguely serious. The second half however was really good. Them arriving at an empty Yuba and meeting a nearly starved Toto was pretty crushing. Seeing him break down into tears while saying he still had hope in the king hit me pretty hard. And if it was hard on me, it must have been incredibly hard on Vivi... Luckily she's as strong as ever when it comes to being a leader and announces in front of her inspired crew that it'll all be okay. <3 This arc stays as unpredictable as ever, even if they completely implied the rebels weren't at Yuba since Chopper was accidentally abducted. The first time we saw Koza in the present we didn't know who he was. But before it announced his name this time I saw his scar and knew immediately. That was a really satisfying reveal. Poor Toto, even abandoned by his own son. And it finally looks like we'll see some actual Crocodile next episode. Sweet. I wonder if this just happened to be a slow episode, or if it's because of the last bunch filler it felt that way. It makes me scared that this is a sign that One Piece's pacing is starting to tank.. we'll see I suppose. |
| The rebels relocated back to Katorea because of the sandstorms and it would've been more convenient if Eyelashes told them about it earlier but Vivi wouldn't have had an unexpected reunion with Toto if that was to be the case. The most powerful officers of Baroque Works are now assembled and it's only a matter of time until they clash with the Straw Hats. |

| Baroque Works totally seems like a bundle of idiots. Even Vivi seemed like an idiot when I first saw. I think only Igarum seemed a sane person to me. There only power is that they have eaten devil fruits. So finally they came to Yuba just for leaving the city. I knew from the start. Tony had visited the rebelians city. That time they showed the leader of them. Kuzo is a good man but he doesn't have enough brain for reasoning. And this situation of the country suddenly seems like done by Crocodile. Wonder what is his devil power? |
| Poor Toto Ojisaan.... :( |
 |
| Damn, those are some zany-ass villains. lol. Bonclaysama is jokes though. I liked how he kicked Mr 1 through that wall for beating up his nakama. And Mr 4 reminds me of Matt Damon from Team America. lmao. Lashes brought some laughs again as well. xD Good episode!! |
| Really hard for me to enjoy this arc... The pacing seems awfully slow compared to the previous arcs. |
| Gah dayum Paula/Ms Doublefinger is hot. Probably hotter than Ms Valentine lol. Looks like all the Officer agents have gathered at that cafe. Even Mr 3 is here. Didn't expect Mr 2 to have such fighting moves lol. Oh man, all of that for nothing! Katorea is so far away too Seeing Toto-ojisan like that breaks my heart. |
 |
| I am a bit confused. Who they want to fight? The Kingdom itself or the pirates? oO |
 |
| I can feel that Blank Paper gonna be huge plot in the future. Damn they came all the way here for nothing. Oh boy it's so sad seeing Toto-ojisan like that. |
 |
| old mans a gigachad |
| Well, things are getting intense with Baroque Works and the rebels. |
| i missed you, bon clay! was gonna say i don’t really care for any of these other agents but then the ms. doublefinger reveal happened and she’s hot so obviously i care now crocodile, your entire organisation is so goofy so i can’t even take you seriously i’m your biggest fan, ero-camel ♡ i know the pacing might seem like a waste of time but personally i think it’s doing a better job of reflecting the struggle of alabasta than the threat of baroque works is, them finding toto-ojisan and what had become of the oasis was sad but expected and helps us better understand the rebellion, even if they’re being manipulated by crocodile i struggled with the pacing in the drum island arc a little but i’m doing better with the alabasta arc, i’m enjoying it a lot! |
| Best episode since they left the ship. Love a good villain meeting episode. If Luffy to fight crocodile. Then zoro definitely going to fight mr.1 and should be a good one. Sanji could fight Mr.2 as well. |
| God that was a sad episode, so all the efforts to get to Yuba were all for nothing, the rebels are now long gone from that place. And just seeing Toto all withered and skinny was just heart-wrenching to watch there. The stakes and pressure is now on for the Straw Hats to find the rebels but they are now miles and miles away from where they first started. Meanwhile far from the straw hats we finally see the other Baroque Works agents gathering in a cafe. It's good to see Bon Clay, he still continues to make me laugh, Mr 1 sounds like he means business but Miss Merry Christmas on the other hand I just find rather annoying and shrill I've gotta say. But oddly enough the latter I do have some vague recollection of her and her having a really stupid attack name in the 4kids version and if I'm right here and it is indeed what I'm remembering from years back, then I'm fairly certain I'll be on that episode very soon. The plot I think is picking up nicely so I do think a lot more is gonna happen now that we've got the straw hats crossing the desert out the way, we can now really focus on the rest of Alabasta now. I reckon Mr 3 is gonna be found out by the other agents because he too was hiding near the cafe so I think he's gonna try to get back to Crocodile if not be captured and brought to him personally. Great episode but overall pretty melancholic considering the circumstances have changed now and that we are probably gonna see more of the Baroque Work agents a lot more frequently. But for now onto the next episode. |
| I really felt the tension as the crew prepares for the battles ahead—such a thrilling build-up. |
