smokes said: ^ lol, do people in this thread actually use their brains ? -_- this ep was just a setup before the huge arc that is coming.. and Crocodile, bon clay, buggy has nothing to do with this = the ep was a RECAP.. that was just like in Ennies Loby.. and whats with sabo ?? that would be a huge spoiler.. men the comments here are always fun to read =))) I've Found out a lot of people on MAL don't actually have brains. The recap was a good refresher. |

mel said: The recap was a good refresher. Agree, also I think smokes is right. As long as they animate the next arc awsomely, I don't mind recaps,fillers or anything. I just wanna see something epic and overhelming with badass animation. |

smokes said: didnt you guys notice that WB was drawn lame ? i mean, they need to make some awesome animation there next arc... better than Ennies Loby :) such awesome moments there.. they need to take their time For the sake of better animation I can wait |
| First half was much better than the second half. |

| Flashbacks.....>.> Oh well.At least we're out of Impel Down. And now would be a good time to again raise the point that I made a few eps back. Its luffy's size. This is current Luffy: And this was the original Luffy. Look at the Luffy from before.He looks grown up.He looks seventeen.He looks like a MAN.Like the captain of the Strawhats. And look at the current Luffy. I bloody hate what the animators are doing.They're making Luffy look like a young boy as to appeal to a wider audience. Like that Naruto. I cant stress enough how much I loathe this little transformation.Someone tell me I'm being paranoid. |

smokes said: i remember laughing out loud when i saw that in the anime. i contemplated pointing that out when it first aired. ^lmao have you seen his face ? XDDD he seem so happy xD personally, I think we should compare Nami's boob size. She was a DFC in the beginning of the series, now she is HUGE.  |

| Recaps. :< |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Well i originally thought this episode was going to be about a ace and luffy's past. It was cool that it started out that way, but then it just went instant recaps for the whole episode. Still its kind of cool to see the entire plot involving blackbeard's betrayal of the Whitebeard pirates and ace trying to get his revenge for killing thatch. Even if all this was explained already. Its kind of neat that they jam packed some of the best moments of OP into one single episode. Next episode seems interesting. |

smokes said: JusticeGundam said: Can we just get to Marineford already? are you retarded ?? i WANT more recaps, so that the marineford arc would be ANIMATED GOOD.. not like impel down.. so yeah.. let them put recaps as long as they want... but i want the marineford arc awesome animated... not shitty Smokes stop insulting people. Calling them retarded all the time. This episode was pure recap. Its understandable how everyone feels, they just want to get to the arc already. It is nice to have a huge refresher though, i mean if you think about it, some of these events havn't happen in years. So people may of forgetten bout it. But honestly dude you need to stop being such a huge fanboy of one piece to the extent that you have to defend every thing. |
| |
| Yeah, this puts in perspective how damn long the Blackbeard/Ace/Whitebeard subplot has been going on. I mean, think about it, the pieces were coming together as early as the Alabasta arc over 300 episodes ago..that's pretty cool in my book. |

| For me this was refreshing.. a much needed recap after 456 episodes after since its started.. Since I've only been watching one piece nearly under 1 year now.. its been brilliant from the start.. just goes to show how the complexity of the one piece universe is and how Oda is a genius haha.. I'm not in any rush to see the Marineford HQ.. just savoring every minute because once I reach the current episode then I'll be viewing it once a week :-( |

| Yup |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I really didn't need to rewatch Ace losing form Blackbeard. It's was painful. I hope the next episode will give us some new information... |
| Recap is recap. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| Good recap. |
  |
| on to the next |
 |
| Skipped all the bits I've seen before, watched this mostly for the interaction |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| they surly love recapping ... |
 |
| I actually like recap episodes like this. Say what you will, we didn't need to see Bellamy's boys beat them up all we needed to see was Nami pull Luffy and Zoro outside, nor did we need to see that much of Ace vs Blackbeard. Yet, everything else was awesome for me at least. It explored Luffy and Ace's love as brothers and their past together, we learned that Ace left three years before Luffy and he didn't see him again until Alabasta... And we got to see all of the story elements that led to this ever since possibly before episode 100 all the way to where we are now. It nicely reminds us of how things came to be and in an anime this long which paces this storyline so slowly it can be forgotten. I watched this concisely put together recap super intently for that reason, it's cool to see a 300 episode storyline all at once. In fact I also liked the fact that we got to see the Bellamy beat down because it reminded me of how almost childishly Luffy tried to be like Shanks in that moment, and how even before when Zoro may not have given up his life and ambition for Luffy he still would go through such extents out of duty and respect for him. Plus seeing the "THIS PIE IS GOOD/BAD", "YOU BASTARD, YOU WANT TO FIGHT?!", "WHY ARE YOU TWO FIGHTING?!" again before that made me laugh really hard. I find the funny and eccentric introduction of Blackbeard quite interesting when we contrast that to his role in the story now. Plus I just love that Ace vs Blackbeard fight. Over the top as if it is showing us that we haven't seen anything yet, it's so epic and exciting and fun. Stuff like Blackbeard and Ace both getting so hurt so quickly, moments like Ace realizing before the first blow even comes that something's wrong, Ace quickly reacting to vortex with an attack as he flies but Blackbeard swinging and catching him going by anyways. And of course moments like Ace's absurdly cool "If I yield to power than there's no point in being born a man, I never leave anything to be regretted in my life. Do you understand that, baka?", hehehe. It's a shame he's come to regret something, letting Luffy get in this much danger to save him and hurting his second dad Whitebeard in this way too. Two side notes about Teech, I love that we saw his beard grow over this journey, we really got to see him live up to his name! lol.. Also, he gives the line that he will be the world's strongest man with his devil fruit. He has this fascination with what seems like power and that may be part of why he wants to become the pirate king. Recall Rayleigh's conversation with Luffy. Luffy doesn't want power, he wants freedom. "I don't want to rule, the king of pirates is the man who's the most free." This seems to be another contrast between these two similar ambition-filled men! |
| This was pretty much a recap of how Blackbeard essentially started a war for turning Ace in after everything he's done. The events of these episodes are still fairly fresh in memory but I didn't mind having to watch it again. I'm so excited! |
 |
| Yup... a filler. Ace needed that screentime. |
 |
| As a binge-watcher, this episode was not necessary... LOL! Looks like there's one filler ahead. |
| Good recap since it's been so long already. Ace vs Blackbeard still looks EPIC!! |
 |
| I actually really enjoyed the recap.. it’s a helpful refresher of some of the most important moments with Ace and Blackbeard which happened god knows how many episodes ago. It puts the scale of this amazing story into perspective. |
