| Part 1 was bad but everything was worth it for part 2 geez I loved that Toei gave the best the possibly could with this episode animation was beautiful I wish One piece could be more like this episode more often. |
PekiNN said: Oh this was hard to watch, when I was reading manga awhile ago, there was not too much emotions like in anime. ~ This episode shows that Sanji will do anything for his friends. :) Hahaha every time I see Luffy without teeth I laugh so hard. 5/5 I read both the manga and watch the show, and the Sanji Vs Luffy moment in the manga barely did anything for me I was just like : oh they're fighting, that's bad. Watching the anime I was standing from my chair yelling at the screen with sheer hype, shaking with excitement and sadness Toei does key moments WAAAAAAY better than the manga. |
 |
| The fight was pretty good even with all the flashbacks and wanted posters interruptions. Luffy, Sanji, Nami :'( |
 |
| Wow that was bloody! I didn't expect Sanji to knock out Luffy's tooth. |

| nice episode....Feeling bad for both sanji and luffy |
 |
| How many years has it been since I've shed a tear for an anime..this special hit me so damn hard. I am watching One Piece since 2002 and getting thoses flashbacks about the old times was really necessary for build up. Especially people who don't follow the OP manga/anime on a regular basis tend to forget o have not paid too much attention to the important details in the anime because of the slow pacing. But this special put every important factor from old episodes (like Cracker foreshadowing Sanji's behaviour and Sanji's goals as a pirate) into a short and compact way that I was left without words. At first I felt hyped af but it slowly turned into a sad desperate mood and that hit me so damn hard that I had the impression I was feeling Sanji's pain with every kick he did to Luffy's face. And that's all although I am caught up with the manga. I guess it's my deep love and caring for One Piece and the nostalgia factor. Like when you follow something you love for years on a weekly basis it kinda gets "normal" to you, but this special made me feel that love for One Piece again. |
| The tears and snot wouldnt stop coming out. One of the reasons I LOVE One Piece! Why I love Luffy; that he could see through Sanji's bullshit and still have faith in him and their friendship. |
| 1 hour special basically 15% story 85% flashbacks of scenes you saw like 3-5 episodes ago...really toei (facepalm) well at least the "fight" was "ok"... |

lagpipi said: Sanji is making a big deal out of everything. So what if his family is abusive, shit happens way worse in real world, get over it. Who is he really protecting? himself? Zeff will be ashamed, as he would have raised a better man than that. It's pretty obvious he has not grown since his childhood, still emotionally trapped as a weak little boy who can't stand up for himself. This arc is dragging on more than what it needs to be because of Sanji. Big Mom is someone Straw Hat would have to be beat eventually, so let's get on with it!! Respect to Luffy for putting up with Sanji. I was hoping the fight to be more of beating Sanji up and taking him back no matter what approach, but that will be just like Naruto.... Good slap by Nami. Sanji totally deserved it. Hoping Jinbe is okay. He is definitely a better man to save than Sanji at this point, but Luffy doesn't even know he is there yet. You're so wrong. He has grown, but the situation is beyond him. Or do you expect him to grow by saying fuck Zeff and leave him die? Sanji is cornered right now. You can't blame him. He has always been a level headed character and from his perspective he can't see other solution than sacrificing himself. |
| I really liked this special, the second episode in particular really lived up to the hype imo. I liked the new opening, this is the first new one since I caught up with the series so it feels weird seeing spoilers for events that I read not too long ago. The first part was particularly flashback heavy but it did a nice job setting things up and providing emotional build up. The second part though is really were the real action got started. Sanji was pretty brutal with his trash talking, it was obviously forced but it was still pretty harsh nonetheless. I got a laugh out of Sanji's brothers getting heart eyes for Nami, I guess being a perv really does run in the family. Sanji vs Luffy was a pretty great fight, not for the action since it was pretty much just a beatdown but Luffy's resolve was really just too awesome. The imagery of Sanji thrashing Luffy with repeated Diable Jambles and Nami crying really captured the intensity of the situation. Seeing Luffy lose his tooth and get his skull cracked from that first kick was chilling, this was a completely different type of fight compared to Luffy vs Usopp and it really showed. Nami slapping Sanji was pretty harsh when you take into account his situation but still understandable. Luffy's speech at the end was really powerful, it was adapted quite nicely from the manga and showed just how much he values Sanji as a friend and as a cook. I can't wait to see Luffy vs the Enraged Army in two weeks. |

| My god this second half was so good. I had the same feeling like back when Luffy and Usopp were fighting at Water 7. It's something you don't want to see. Friends who are fighting each other. But if you know Sanjis situation, how could someone ever blame him? Luffy lost a tooth from that one kick but I didn't expect from Sanji to go all out with his last attack. I knew Luffy would never die from it but it looked pretty scary at first with all the blood. Everyone who watched that episode knows that wasn't a fight at all. Unlike the fight between Luffy and Usopp, Luffy here had no reason to fight against Sanji. Poor Nami. She couldn't do anything besides watching. I had a feeling she would slap Sanji as soon as she went to him. Luffys speech at the end in never giving up on Sanji, all the memories they showed + seeing Sanji and Nami crying was something my heart couldn't handle anymore. So sad ;_; |

| Emotional episode with some great animation. 10/10 episode for me :) |
 |
| Sanji did nothing wrong. Luffy <33 |
| Huge goosebumps when Memories started. :c Most important episode of the year by far. Things seem to be getting real from now on!! |
| I'll fade away and classify myself as obsolete! Obsolete!! |

That's why he has not grown at all. He is just as cornered and trapped as he was in his childhood. Germa 66 and Big Mom are enemies they will have to deal with eventually. Taking out his family and Big Mom will hopefully remove the potential threat to Zeff, especially when Germa 66 appears to be an army of mindless clones. So taking out the heads will be effective. Instead of believing in his "real family", he voluntarily put himself back in the same situation and conforms to his family's wish, allowing his family to manipulate him again. Like Reiju said no second chance. He has not grown emotionally. Plus Zeff was willing to lose his leg and no food to continue Sanji's same dream of finding All Blue. For Sanji to do this, has he not thought it's a smack to his old man's face? It's all very sad for everyone, but I simply don't feel it for Sanji. lagpipi said: Albi-kun said: You're so wrong.

But how could he continue following his dream at the expense of others? Would Luffy sacrifice his crew to become Pirate King?! Obviously not. |
| I'm a complete sucker for Memories so I was surprised to see a remix for it. This brings me back to the Usopp vs. Luffy era. Was good to watch this animated, but I'm still glad I picked up the manga due to the padding and flashbacks somewhat hampering the impact (way too many eye catches and repeats of previous moments). |
| Oh man this episode. The feels were heavy hitting for sure! Always has to be one low low point before we finally see Luffy emerge victorious! What I love about One Piece for sure, it's just such a wait! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| this got nothing on usopp vs. luffy. |
| Great episode. It was so sad to watch them fighting... or more like watching Sanji being forced to beat Luffy :'( That reminded me of Luffy vs Usopp, which, by he way, was a lot more emotional that this one. Nice flashbacks at the end from old, good One Piece. That all makes me feel like rewatching the whole series. |
 |
| Damn, i was surprised to myself that i started crying at the part when Sanji was crying too.. that really hit hard.. Yes, Luffy, you cannot be a Pirate King if you are hungry! So we need the Chief Sanji back :) |

Currently if Sanji is to rebel against Germa 66 he will lose his hands meaning his dream of being a chef in the All Blue is all but over, Zeff the man he has more respect for than any other including Luffy and the gang would be executed and if Luffy was to help he would have two huge crews going for the eventual king of the pirates simultaneously after Nami just told Sanji that Luffy is not at full strength. He has most certainly developed as a character, when he was young he was weak and afraid. The fact he came on his own to end the situation once and for all shows he is no longer weak or afraid, he is doing what he has seen Luffy do countless times since they met and go up against impossible odds single handed and win. His family still see him as a weak cowardly subordinate that will back down and that speech from Luffy at the end of 808 will make sure that does not happen. |

| It really pissed me off during the very slow first half when they keep repeating scenes over and over again and those goddamn little cutscenes where they show the Strawhats' wanted posters, this is fucking new low for Toei. But near the end when they showed flashbacks of the Strawhats' past adventures together and coupled with that classic, One Piece's first ending song which is titled memories, see the genius behind this? Damn I sure did cry like a bitch. Fuck that first half though. |
 |
| To me these past few eps have felt a bit laklustre with the drawn out pacing more noticeable than on other arcs when they needed to do so but damn when they put out an episode like these I cannot help but feel a few slow eps were all worth the wait. This episode really encapsulated the core of what one piece is and was and really hit damn hard on me than I was initially prepared for. Toei for all the flak they receive(and rightly so at times) really relivers on keypoints of the story like these. Damn that was a good ep and memories by maki otsuki playing with the montage of their older adventures hits right home in the feels. Thank you toei for adapting this particular episode with this much care. |
| ohhh ONE PIECE, how much did I miss you! |
| Brilliant episode and good animation and character details. Very well done feelings that Sanji express. Very strong episode. |

Jack_100HP said: pathetic. oda should publicly apologize on behalf of toei for ruining such a great show Where is this coming from? |

So basically a troll post? That explains it. |
|
| Couldn't hold back my tears. 807 was so bad... but 808 is One Piece at his best, epic! |
| 'Don't run. Face your fears. Survive' |
| watching this episode at midnight, I had to hold my crying voice.... T_T aaaaa.....love to hear "memories" song again :') |
 |
| Great episode. I really like it when the 'memories' start playing. Man I cried, I cried. |
