Definitely one of the best episodes recently. That Sanji and Pudding scene was amazing here, and Big Mom coming back was also epic. The music was also pretty fitting this entire arc, but especially this episode.

So we are done with this arc. Reverie is coming up. Before that we are going to an amazingly hype episode next week. I want to see that chapter getting animated!

They actually nailed it this week. Really loved how they adapted Katakuri and Brulle's relationship in that flashabck and the grand finish of this arc showing the Sanji and Jeff parallel was on point too.

It would have been awesome if Sanji cried at that scene with Carrot, but omg this episode was full of feelings.
I feel sorry for Pudding because she erased that memory, dunno if Sanji would have left if he remembered it but I also feel bad for Katakuri, he blamed himself for Brulee's injury, it's good he has someone he can relax with.
OMG, Mom had to appear before Jinbe had a chance to escape.

Episodes like this one make me glad that I still follow the anime despite already knowing what is going to happen from reading the manga. This episode was incredible in pretty much every single aspect. It may even be better for me than the Snakeman vs Katakuri episode.

Ahh yes!! Once again, One Piece delievers one superb episode and a fantastic ending to the Whole Cake Island Arc. Finally, we're moving on with the story into even more interesting territory.

Fuck yeah the next episode is gonna be lit! Great to see a change of atmosphere once in a while, many of the other characters will be returning to see "THOSE" wtf news. I mean, the next episode's title says it all ^-^

For those of you who want to know. Wano is like the true Japan of one piece arc. Its an arc that is comprised of historical japanese periods with inspiration and historical references with a more culturally japan themed arc and even different forms of japanese mythology. It is absolutly one of the best arcs that oda has ever crafted. It is clear he has been waiting so long to write bout it.

Can't wait till July, but at least the 4 months gives the studio ample time so when wano does start, they can do it justice.

What, why July? Reverie is going to take max 3-4 episodes IMHO.

Damn what a long ride. I didn't expect that arc to be this long, but at least we came to an end and Luffy escaped out of Big Moms territory.

Was sad to see Carrot crying like this. Pedro meant so much for her. And even if I didn't liked Pudding in the start it was also sad to see her like that. So she deleted the memory of the kiss between her and Sanji.

Jimbei and the sun pirates as well as Germa66 also try to get away from Big Mom. I wonder if they can manage to do it. After all what happened Big Mom should be pretty pissed.

I think everyone of the straw hats is happy to have Sanji back and cooking for them. That's so long ago.

It was nice and interesting to see something of Katakuris past. So that's the reason Brulee got the scarf in her face. Katakuri smiled when he heard Luffy made it out of their territory. He's definitely the best villain so far. I hope we will see him again in the future.

What was that preview? I don't read the manga, but Luffy isn't really the 5th yonko right? :o

Thousand Sunny is escaping, Carrot told Sanji about Pedro's death. Pudding is crying in an alley while she remembers that she took Sanji's memories out when they kissed. Brulee went to Mirroworld to heal Katakuri while he remembers when some bandals attacked her. Judge and Jinbe's groups are preparing their withdraw, but Big Mom is about to arrive. Thousand Sunny finally gets out of Totto Land.

That was really poetic, telling us what is going on with the characters that are still fighting, is like seeing your own death. Epic, I just hope Jinbe could get away alive and meet Luffy.

Seeing Carrot cry made me cry instantly.

It was a great episode full of emotions and sentiments. And at some point that arc turned into an opera. It will be great if they adapt it into opera for real. Big Mom needs better songs tho.

Well thats a wrap! Thus finally ends whole cake island. They closed it out with an "opera" literally lol. Such a great amazing episode. But when you look back at the arc as a whole, this one is probably best read in the manga aside from the musicals which i think the studio did an amazing job at.

I didn't realize how dragged out this arc really was but 96 freaken episodes??? Holy SHIT!! That is damn near almost as large as dressrosa but yet that arc was 100+ chapters in the manga. This arc was only 78 chapters. Yet the anime some how ended up being longer then the manga arc. That is crazy. This type of ratio almost never happens. It is usually the anime has less episodes then the manga obviously.

So like for dressrosa for example, you can expect about 80-90 episodes to adapt a 100 chapter manga for a pretty fluent pacing but for WCI it really should have be something like 60+ episodes in the anime, but yet it was 96! you see what im getting at. That arc was stretched to the absolute max. No wonder people complained about the pacing so much.

In any case, they are taking a 3/in half month break before wano starts so thats a good thing.

This arc was much better handled though, the manga rushed a lot of things while the anime expanded a lot of stuff.. I enjoyed the anime experience better tbh, the arc came to life and was really cool.

Dressrosa was unbearable.
This episode was amazing, the art, animation and music was an amazing combination.
And of course expanding on the scenes and fights is always welcome... That ending with owner Zeff and flashbacks were amazingly done.
Katakuri blushing addition was the cutest shit I've ever seen, love my big cute bara boi! More fan art pls

I really wouldn't call it rushed or at least not use those exact words. Oda him self actually prolonged whole cake island beyond what it was originally intended as and as the pacing of the arc actually suffered with Katakuri's fight and it felt like there were a few plot conveniences along side this arc which is something that does not usually happen with one piece. Eichiro oda usually always plans things out pretty well. Even he admitted that the arc was going to be extend beyond what he originally had plans for which already kind of dragged the story along even in the manga.

How ever i do think there are some moments in the manga that were not explained quite as well which further exemplifies why this arc in particular wasn't as well thought out as other arcs of one piece and leaving alot of exposition in the anime to clear up things. Also there were many great sakugu moments displayed in the anime that would have not had the same impact as in the manga, especially many of the musical moments even some of the more action intensive scenes like the ending of Katakuri's battle.

So i think the anime brought a whole new level of amazement to some outstanding moments in this arc but as a whole, its not my most favorite arc in one piece due its more contrived story and rather certain plot conveniences used such as big mom being Nerfed so the straw hats can escape. How ever i still love the arc, i just think oda can do better and has proven that with more careful planning better execution and a story arc that results in less plot holes.

A comparison for example would be wano, it is clear that he's been waiting to write this arc for a very long time and my god does it show.

haha, i hope foxy does come back at some point. I always felt that this was the only arc in one piece that had really no correlation to the main story and honestly it just felt like oda was high on something when he wrote it. How ever oda did declare that he plans on resolving the story of one piece with no loose ends, so the chances of foxy coming back at some point is pretty high as is eneru.

This episode was full of emotions.
At last the Straw Hat Pirates left Tottoland and with this the Whole Cake bow ends. What a joy to get to this point and see the culmination of the bow, I saw it broadcast every Saturday and well, those who did, know how extensive it really was. It lasted almost 3 years, but in spite of everything it was a very good arc and was full of surprises.

And here are some points to comment on this episode:
1. Pudding really fell in love with Sanji, unfortunately he snatched the memories of his first kiss. That scene was sad.
2. Jinbe and Germa 66 managed to give him the opportunity to leave the field to the Straw Hats. And just when they were ready to retire also appears the damn fat unfortunate Big Mom. I hope you get out of that situation.
3. See Carrot cry and hear the words he said about Peter's sacrifice, it really moved me almost to tears. Big Pedro, will be a character that I will not forget. His sacrifice was not in vain.
4. Katakuri, in my opinion, is the best enemy Luffy has had in every way. It is admirable and I respect him.
5. Ahhhhhhhhhh. I do not believe it, since I do not read the manga, they do not know the great emotion I felt when I saw the title of the next episode. Luffy an emperor ?. WOW! 😁

Damn you Toei/Oda. I really wanted to see that kiss, but I suppose that won't happen. I mean come one we saw their faces, but not the kiss. That's just too cruel to show the same thing twice without the kiss. That makes sense, so that's why Sanji was so calm after that incident. The look on his face was hilarious as always.

I liked how they used the technique of old movies in this ep. Like with Charlie Chaplin movies where there were only music and no voice. The text explained what happened. The animation was really superb in this ep. too so they had gathered their budget for the closure.

Poor Katakuri + Pudding. They have been through a lot. The Straw Hat is out of Big Mom's territory and they are about to gather as a crew. This is going to get even more interesting.

thats exactly what the manga readers said to. Oda basically ended the arc on a huge cliff hanger. I think it was intentional though to troll us on rather or not Jimbie officially makes it out of their alive, now that we know he's a straw hat member. In fact he did mention something like that, basically that he doesn't want to spoi one of the surprises since his last appearance and this is the reason why he wasn't included in a cover pages.

weakest arc in OP history, the old man has gone senile. Oda should just wrap this series up after Kaido, he's pushing himself even though he lacks that spark. He should contact ONE sensei and ask for pointers to wrap this sinking ship.

For those who said One Piece is slow & drag in each every episode yea yea yea shut the fuck up quality over rushed episodes.


Quality like this is rare though. With great direction, slow pacing can actually be a great thing. For 90% of the show, this amount of slowness has been painful and unrewarding. I appreciate it when One Piece goes into epic mode, but let's not lie and pretend that the rest of the show doesn't drag painfully.
