Props to Mayumi-san and Kappei for a good job! :D

Much better than the previous episode. I don't know what the people who read the manga think about these episodes but I like them, the pace is ok for me.

It's always good to see this stuff animated. I'm someone who practically skims the manga due to the fact I still want the anime to feel fresh, and new to me.
A lot of this stuff I forgot occurred, so it's not as if I'm re watching the same thing over. Also, I can't bear to watch manga fight scenes, so this is always refreshing.

Could everyone stop with the spoilers, and telling others whether or not their predictions are correct or not? I mean, seriously... You can make predictions, but if you want to know if you're right, you should ask for an answer to be messaged to you privately.
I don't think anyone wants to be spoiled...

I'm also anime only so can't give you that perspective, but I found this very enjoyable and the pacing was done very well for a change. The previous episode I found rather boring and with what I had heard about what we should expect with the pacing in the manga I was close to dropping One Piece but after this episode I will atleast give it a good chance.

"The researcher's" voice
is the same person who did Mayuri's voice in Bleach. How fitting :P


Yep, he's also Frieza in DBZ. Props to Monet's voice as well. Can't wait for the arc to really get going here.

I loved this episode.

I do have to state this to other people saying they were annoyed about Usopp. The thing I feared the most after the time-skip was a personality change. I love Usopp how he is now, still Usopp but stronger. He adds the realistic feeling. I mean, who would be happy to see a Dragon?!

Usopp, thanks for your reactions, love ya!
Wise shit.

This episode was freaking hilarious XD XD XD I got a Soul Eater vibe from it, don't know why...
The cutting people and making a patchwork out of them is maybe Law's doing??? I remember he did something like that at Saboady Archipelago...no???
I wondering who the master is... The island residents are pretty f****d up :P
The whole island theory reminds me of Thriller Bark. Some mastermind who is experimenting on people and weird creatures all over the place...

Refreshing episode after, in my opinion, a fairly weak 2 episode opening to a new arc. The talking body parts has got to be Trafalgar Law's doing. He did a very similar thing during the escape from the human auction place on sabaody. Excited to (hopefully) see him again as he and his crew were very intriguing.

An island split between lava and ice? After just being informed of the duel between Aokiji and Akainu, this stands out the most so far. I definitely support the theory that this is where the battle took place.

Aside from those two things, I don't know what to make of the other new characters that have appeared. Some smokey guy who looks to be some sort of scientist, and a lot of strange creatures on the island. Reminds me a lot of Thriller Bark.

I have high hopes for this arc after a slow Fish-man island arc. Hopefully it wont drag too much.

FINALLY a good episode. One of the few episodes I've actually derived entertainment from since after the timeskip. Came here just to say it. The art style has drastically improved too. Things are actually looking up. The fishman arc was utter garbage but this ain't so bad.

This might be a dumb question, but what's with the title card? The frame didn't appear in the actual episode did it? Or maybe it did? I mean, Luffy is an orange silhouette here. I thought most title cards were a freeze frame of canon material. Did the animation staff just feel like changing things up with some artsiness? Why aren't other people commenting on this too? (Considering this doesn't happen often.)

If the animation team DOES do this from time to time, then does anyone know of any other episodes with strange title cards?

This exact frame didn't appear, but it was "hovered" over in one of the scenes (at 9th minute). Compare for yourself:

It also seems to be mirrored, but Luffy's scar is on the correct side in both cases nevertheless

Regarding colouring - just check the previous episode for instance - they edit the colouring when the title appears occasionally:

Oh wow, thanks a ton for taking the time to clarify all of that. I was quite confused and spent nearly 10-20 minutes Googling terms that might answer my question but to no avail. You're right, a similar flipped frame appears in the episode. (And very good eye. You must've had to do some delicate skimming through the episode to find it.)

So what we can conclude is that the animation team INDEED felt like being artsy, by changing Luffy's skin orange and removing his eyes... (in other words, this episode's title card seemed to be more than just a color edit!)

And that, you're saying, every once and awhile, the animation team INDEED "mixes things up", so to speak...

Because I DID check the previous episode and they changed the tone of the dragon from red to gray. But then I checked some other episodes in this arc and the title card was quite normal.

I can't believe there aren't any similar discussions out there.

But you've definitely cured an uncomfortable curiosity so thanks again for the comparison screenshots.

There's a lot of mythical creatures in Punk Hazard for some reason and it's possible that the mad scientist in the mountains might be responsible for this. Either way, the secret behind this island will be revealed in the next episode.

Ryusei Nakao finally playing Canon character in One Piece, previously he was voicing Erik from that filler arc before Grand Line.

Getting the introduction of the main characters for this arc.

The guy with the split body while still being alive. From who we've seen it would suggest Law's doing, but during the fight we saw alongside Luffy, he was swapping parts around rather than just splitting and leaving them. Since they've also been mentioning a Seven Warlord, another guess is Doflamingo. We've not been shown much specifics of his power other than body manipulation. But with the way he moves his fingers and the way the people moved, my guess would be thin wires. Although if it was Doflamingo like that, it raises the question of how the people are still alive. Third theory is whoever split the guy up and the Seven Warlord are different people.

Well it looks like Law is involved. Maybe his crew got captured and he fighting to get out?

It seems like the villain could be a warlord. As of now we know the warlords are

1) Hawkeye
2) Kuma
3) Hanncock
4) Flamingo

There 3 openings with Jinbae, Moria, Blackbeard/Crocdile out. Could they have promoted law to a warlord? It seems unlikely due to his personality. We know it’s not hanncock and I’d be surprised if Kuma (due to him being a robot) and this does not feel like Hawkeye. So maybe this arc is flamingo centered? But I have a feeling we could have 3 new warlords and one of them will be center stage here
