That radical beam at the end there where he pops out of General Franky.. Just chef's kiss. I'm legitimately curious, are you trying to make a joke that simply flew over my head, or do you really not know Sasaki's name? Also it's funny that you praise the fight's animation when most of the comments that I've seen on social media and other forums (and even in my own opinion) is that the fight had average animation at best because the episode was outsourced, and that it didn't even feel like a proper conclusion to the fight. |
Early_Morning said: Idk man I'm not an expert on this. It looked cool to me. I can obviously tell the difference between very bad and very good animation but anything between those extremes is good in my eyes. I guess I'm more interested in the characters than the animation. And did I lie? Franky's powerups are always fun to watch! Also, 43.5% of people on MAL that watched the episode agree with me or at least don't feel like the episode was as bad as you think.samsince04 said: Franky and Sasori's fight has reached its climax.

Oh, his name is Sasaki! Thanks for pointing that out I guess. I messed it up with Sasori from Naruto๐คฆโ๏ธ. Not really surprising considering I watched this episode at like 4 in the morning but thanks anyway. |

thebrentinator24 said: lol wtf. Completely agree with you but that last statement LMAOBruh is really working overtime complaining about Yamato's hybrid form, it's not like she's going to stay like that permanently. Oh no she turns into a wolf-human hybrid and, predictably......grows fur. End of the world I guess ๐ like relax she'll turn back eventually and you can continue wacking it to her when that time comes. |

AhriTheS3xyFox said: SamBlack said: The Yamato salt in this thread ๐ I quite like how her form looks in the anime. Mostly a flashback episode but I enjoyed Robin's cool moments Oh hey ! I remember you, you used to post threads of whole cake island threads Yep, I'm still alive! |
| Episode starts with one of the most annoying characters in the crew and then continues with unnecessary flashbacks that we've seen multiple times before. Next episodes seems to be the same with flashbacks that are from a character no1 cares about. Hopefully we can come back on track in a few weeks, this is getting ridiculous. Loli Robin is so cute tho, love the voice of Anzu Nagai! :) |
| I actually liked seeing the reanimated flashback. I'm not sure if it needed to take up half the episode, but it was cool. |

| I'm actually kind of disappointed ๐ I mean previous episodes had really amazing graphics and animations... but this episode and especially fights were kind of boring... And also it was almost flashbacks... it looks like the next episode will be like this too. I mean we'll have Brook's flashbacks again. I hope we don't see graphics like this episode anymore. Oh also I kind of liked this shape of Yamato... she looked beautiful ๐ป. |
| I'm BlkAngle; A real weeb |
| Robin's flashback felt like a nightmare. The pacing is terrible, and at this point it feels like the director is trolling viewers.

Wouldn't you have preferred if all the time spent with the flashback had been dedicated to animating Robin's fight with Black Maria? |

I'll give Toei all the time they need, and for Oda to keep his health. I'm still getting One Piece weekly. |

| They should just put this on hiatus if it keeps on going like this. It's hard to follow the plot with this pacing, and I can't even enjoy it. Take a break Toei. |
Strawhatmonty97 said: I mean fuck man I'm usually the first to criticize the anime being mediocre. I did not expect such a negative takeaway from this ep. Are yall braindead? What's so fun about watching a dumb ugly giant man with a weird laugh? Also, the pacing is bad, most people don't care about flashbacks that have already been shown, and prefer new scenes, and especially Robin's emotional scenes are already overused. Robin asking to be taken to the sea was nice when it happened in the story in its proper context, but showing it over and over again is just cringeworthy, and it's a cheap way to move the viewers' emotions, reusing a scene that succeeded in making people cry, and this gives the viewers the impression that we are being fooled; It's too obvious that the anime producer is meaning: "Hey, look how tragic Robin's story is! You're supposed to feel bad for her in this scene! Cry, now!". |

| The end of the franky fight was lackluster, they didn't even damage the General Franky like they did in the manga. Spoiler there, his sword broke and it lost an arm and the legs were badly damaged. Very disappointed there. The Yamato fight was meh. The Robin flashback was nice cause I love Robin... overall this was a bad one. |
 |
| pov: you waited whole week to see flashback that was already shown in the and you watch it again now |
| BRUHHHH the fight between robin and this spider lady started what like 20 episodes ago and they literally forgot about it till now... amazing pacing (slow clap)๐ |
| Adult Robin's dereshishi ah my heart Of course the backstory never gets old as well |
| I prefer these flashbacks than unnecessary long fights tbh looking forward to Brook's story |
| Emphasis on Robin's past shedding some new light.. Brooke next! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| So are the next episodes just going to be more flashback episodes? Wtf Toei? |
| Idc even if it was a recap episode. It was still great and I got emotional once again even tho I've watched it so many times... LOL |
 |
| Each of Straw Hats have a memorable past :) |

| So we continued with the weird fight of Franky vs Sasaki. With a broken sword and a half sliced off shoulder, it's the first time we've seen General Franky damaged at all. I'm not 100% sure about it, but it looked like Franky was able to win with his Radical Beam in the end. Since future enemies will only get stronger, Franky should learn how to use his beams quickly and repeatedly. As I mentioned before, Queen might be able to help with that. The most interesting part about Yamato's fight against Kaido this time, was to learn more about her rare mythical type dog-dog devil fruit, which also seems to let her control ice. It might just be a flashback, but it always hit right in the feels when I get to see one of straw hats sad pasts. Even when Black Maria tried to manipulate Robin in showing her illusions of her mother, Saul and the professor, it still didn't work, since Robin found a reason to live. Her friends. Hopefully Brook is also able to withstand those illusions. I'm already curious what he'll get shown. |
 |
| No flashbacks of events that happened very recently in this episode cause they faced an enemy who's power is showing memories through illusion. Lol. At least those flashbacks weren't shown before, I think. |
 |
| The episode's flashback fit well with the last golden chapter, though they made it too long But this is One Piece that we know.. |
| I'm actually glad they reanimated some parts of Robin's past, the saddest backstory I've seen in the Straw Hat so far, really hits in the feels on an emotional level. I'm anticipating more from her end. |
| Yikes, episodes like this make me wish OP would take a break to definitively fix the pacing. Reminiscing on Robin's memories could have been much more impactful if it was done as a quick montage. At this rate, the flashbacks are going to defeat the purpose of ever rewatching the earlier episodes. |
