| I'm the only one thinking if it's a canon one piece episode it's a banger |
 |
| Didn't like the Zoro yellow aura thingy. |
 |
| After seeing the episode again, I'm actually stumped that it was as slow as it was. Toei adapted a full chapter like they did last week, but in terms of plot it still seemed like not much happened. In the past I used to say that Toei should adapt 1 full chapter per episode more frequently, but this is one instance where they did exactly as I wanted, yet still produced an episode that's a 6/10 at best. Also Toei needs to stop hyping up Zoro so much. The constant auras are bad enough, but why did they show Zoro engulfed in flames due to Happy Mother's Blaze? In the manga he dodged the attack but the anime portrayed it differently in a way that makes it look like Zoro actually endured the flames, which makes him seem way more durable than he is and also makes Big Mom look like a joke yet again... |
| Bad start with Luffy doing gatling gun forever because pacing, but we got 1 entire chapter adapted so I'm not complaining. The rest of the pacing was ok, not bad animation but not good either. I was expecting this episode to not be as good as the previous one so I wasn't surprised, it was just very ok overall. Also I quite liked the cgi on Kaido's dragon form, and I'm not a fan of cgi in anime. |
| Well... it was a toned-down episode from all the epicness from previous episodes. But, it was fun. Looks like Kaido has been transformed. Can't wait to see him in action. Zoro was cool and Luffy is out for 10 minutes. |

MegamiRem said: Didn't like the Zoro yellow aura thingy. Yeah, hat was bizarre. Just let him cut shit up with his swords. |
| I knew this episode wasn't going to be as good but I still felt underwhelmed. Luffy punching Kaidou went for too long and dragon CGI felt a little weird. |
 |
| Cgi Kaido was funny af, but after last episode it's understandable. Pacing felt slower than expected considering they adapted 1 chapter and the animation quality overall was average. Definitely far from terrible but also not good. |
 |
| this episode was so slow... :'( So hard to follow the story only via anime... The manga is a little slow by moment but the anime is very slow |
| Was this really One Piece? I never imaginez such a massive quality drop, the non-stop gattling, facial expressions and what more. Even Zoro's dragon twister was lacking everything. The first cut on Kaido by Zoro was just underwhelming. Well, it's understandable.. The latest few episodes probably took a huge toll on them but the outcome would have been better if they switched today's episode with the next one. |

VolKur said: @FMmatron is it me, or the tension in anime is more than manga. Plus Kids punk gibson looks amazing even though he is doing nothing right now. And it looks like next episode will have good animation. Ryosuke Tanaka deserves a better chapter to adapt, I think he should have directed this episode. Then again he never adapted/directe action chapter. Not in this episode. I was laughing my ass off @ Luffy trying to punch Kaido until he dies of boredom. @Ayu_01 can look forward to next week, it will be a Tama episode.

Yeah, Zoro is known to be fan favorite and the consequence is him sucking up all the badassery. The Happy Mothers Blaze was fine, it still looked ambiguous. They went the extra mile to put emphasis on the cut Zoro dealt to Kaido. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
VolKur said: @FMmatron I'm talking about last scene of the episode, kaido hybrid form. The background music matchs perfectly to that scene, and the tension in that scene & when CP-0 showing the stats was really there atleast for me. If I'm being truth I hated gatling and pacing, i really am not that disappointed in cgi. And I'm glad they didn't showed the aura when zoro attacked kaido, it was only shown when he was charging(whatever you wanna say that) his swords with haki. It was decent enough. Could've been better if I was a fan of the OST choices. As bad as the Kong Gatling was drawn out, Gear 4th theme 🥶 |

| @Ayu_01 yeah ofcourse. And about Zoro's aura, oda literally gave zoro a dragon and aura around enma in manga as well.  |
| Could the hacker hack Toei again? At least like 1 year so they have time to animate? I wouldn't mind |

| I enjoyed the episode so much. The OSTs were fire too! |
| Now THIS! Is what you call a mistake! The horrid CGI, and pacing, along with flashbacks added. This makes 914&915 god tier episodes. Despite that this was not a good episode, i'm still going to vote "love it" anyway. For the sake of supporting this series. anyway.... Yamato episode screenshare of the week.   |

Ayu_01 said: @Fmmatron next week will be peak fiction. The saviour of this raid Tama will appear to end the war. Tama>>Shanks. It seems Toei is doing alt eps good bad combo. First the epsidoe started at 4.5 mins mark then 4 mins of luffy hitting kaido and that too mostly replays which is quite reductant.Again with the aura shit which is okay but then they consume 1 min for transformation and then dragging stuff at end. [/spoiler] I'm happy that OTama is getting relevance, she is way more likeable than Momonosuke. Well I could understand that Momonosuke stood up and took courage even as a kid. But I felt like he was underdeveloped. I assume this is Toei taking a hit from the Ransomeware hack, which had them to resort to rushing things out, like the CGI. Preferably I would want them to delay this, but this would affect the market, so... |

VolKur said: Zekosama said: this was unfortunately the worst episode in this arc imo. i feel like they cover only 2 pages for the whole episode + bad animation compared to episode 1017 Lmao, you will be more disappointed if I told you that this episode covered the whole chapter(15 pages). @AhriTheS3xyFox lmao I'll never spoile one piece to anime only watcher. Thank you so much, it makes me happy 😊 Although youtube already spoiled me so much from the thumbnails, and titles. Now I am disappointed at one character who I adore so much. Has something I dislike. |

Since 3D models are more faster and easier than 2D. So it's less time consuming. Well I guess I am more optimistic about the next episode, now that you mentioned that. |

| One of the worst episodes of the last few years. I would rather have them stop this weekly torture, and change it to 1 ep/month schedule. Atrocious pacing. |
Mattuzmk said: One of the worst episodes of the last few years. I would rather have them stop this weekly torture, and change it to 1 ep/month schedule. Atrocious pacing. But that will ruin it for the audience and the market. And from what others had said here on the forum posts here, it had adapted 1 chapter. Althought I do agree the pacing was bad. But 1month/ep? xD, at least there is something to look forward to, and the story still progresses even if it made little to none, unless they are fillers. |

Since 3D models are more faster and easier than 2D. So it's less time consuming. Well I guess I am more optimistic about the next episode, now that you mentioned that. Right, this is my issue with the industry these days. Since the technology of 3d modeling and CG started to become more common place amongst many forms of media, specifically western animation, Japan has adapted those technologies to use in anime but its more or less a lazy man's way of finishing a production in my opinion. Its faster, it requires less skill and financial investment is very little. Hence the reason studio's now have opted to deliver more CGI in their productions. There has always been an apparent problem with the industries production workflow and staff being over worked to exhaustion. This is there way of taking the easy way out so to speak. Ever since this new gen tech, started to arise in anime production, we have ended up with just disastrous works like the Berserk remake. Don't get me wrong, there is plenty of CG works that fantastic, but in my opinion, you have to know how to utilize it effectively and if you look at the most popular CG works in the western world of media, they never intermix 2d animation and 3dCG for animated objects, which results in this kind of a mess of robotic and stiff animation that clash. Yamato the new remake for example did it effectively where they used mainly the 3d CG for background action scenes, but kept characters and foreground objects with 2D animation. I Know for sure we will never go back to the era of hand man works of art like in the 80's and early to mid 90 with such exemplary masterpiece crafts like Ghost in the shell, Patlabor, Gunbuster, Akira and even Dragonball but I can never get used to this new evolution of 3 dimensional CGI and 2d animation, it just ruins the experience for me. I am kind of old now so I grew up with animaton like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdX6U5OOoag https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wckZcVFLU24 To see how motion animation has taking such a backwards turn is frightening and i understand the need to adapt new technologies especially when things are so much faster and easier to do with computer's. I have come to accept the newer form of digital animation that has existed in the last 2 decades now, using decreased frames and still shots to render scenes for most contemporary works, But 3DCGI should NOT be a part of this trend in Japanese animation especially when they try and make some form of hybrid animation by mixing the two. The end result is always going to have this computerized, robotic fake look to it. Its less organic. Anyways sorry for the rant people. |

| So much hate and exaggeration on this episode just because it came out after 1015 and 1017. That's how One Piece episodes usually are. Watch Marineford episodes and some of Wano's and all of sudden this episode feels amazing. |
| Kaido competing with Zoro with his dragon twister was just too funny. |
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load. |
| Yeah, that was a bit of a boring episode to be honest. Way too slow. This is a good example of where I strongly prefer the manga... Keen to see Kaido's beast man form. |
 |
VolKur said: @Ayu_01 yeah ofcourse. And about Zoro's aura, oda literally gave zoro a dragon and aura around enma in manga as well. Man it just looks so much cooler in the manga!! Haha |
|
| It was Zoro's time to shine this episode...any damage Kaido takes is a good thing. |
