| Look at all those realistic explosion effects that Toei did for this episode. Epic! But gosh, falling from the sky at that height took minutes. It's like the gravitational pull is 10 times slower. 😝 Frickin' Saturn stabbed Vegapunk, AAARRRRGH! I wanna see Luffy squash Saturn like the bug that he is. But I really enjoyed seeing the buildings dance to Nika's rhythm. It was funny. 😁 I've been waiting for this moment. For Bonney to finally witness Luffy as Nika whom she's been searching for years. She can't contain her emotions. 😭 YEAH! Reinforcements arrive! Dorry & Broggy AND the Giant Warrior Pirates arrive on Egghead! 🤩 The escorts from Elbaph are here! LFG!!!! |

| I actually laughed out loud seeing the Kuma/Bonney Nika dance flashback scene pop up again, but in a flabbergasted and exasperated way. I don't remember, it may very well have been included in Chapter 1106, but the gall to show us it yet again for the what? Fifth or sixth time? Incredible. Pretty weird and ugly CG used this week too, but what can you do? The climax of the arc animation will hopefully be worth enduring all of this... |

| A lot of CG effects in this episode which I don't love as much, but some great sequences including some Naotoshi Shida stuff, I loved how it looked when Luffy was bouncing around the island like it was a bouncy house lol Also great to see Dorry and Broggy at the end! (despite the fact that anime-onlys were probably spoiled last week by the OP about that lol) |

@ultramb yeah, why do they have to use CGI !?
| @Niwaka-Samurai They probably needed to budget cut more on this one so the next few episodes can be absolutely insane. |

THE STRETCHING IS FINALLY OVER. LUFFY LANDS A HAKI-EMPOWERED PUNCH ON BORSALINO, BLOWING HIM AWAY WHILE LAUGHING AND DANCING, AS BONNEY WATCHES IN DISBELIEF AND SADNESS THAT HER FATHER DIDN’T LIVE LONG ENOUGH TO SEE IT. OHHH MYYY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDD.
That aside, cutting the episode right after the Giants arrive, goodness gracious! If that ain’t illegal, I don’t know what is! But what I do know for sure is that things are about to get hype! Are we about to start the Elbaf arc? Not entirely sure, but what I am sure of is that I’m super excited!

elbaf ain't happening this year bro, the pacing is so dogshit it's unbelievable
| @GodBrandxDD I ain't a manga reader, brother, so I don’t really know, haha. I just saw both Dorry and Brogy and immediately thought of Elbaf, which is why I said that, haha. But yeah, I know the pacing’s bad, since Zoro’s been fighting Lucci for like weeks now, haha. |

| @animefan8800 Yeah, it feels like the episode directors don't look at each other's work and don't realize that they have the same damn scene 5th episode in a row lol. Anyway, this is another weak/mid episode. The manga content wasn't anything special, so it's fine. As long as the they'll cook some big episodes later, I can endure a few sacrificial episodes. |

| Oh so suddenly now Vegapunk was able to install a backdoor into the Pacifista without Saturn knowing? But he wasn't able to do that with Kuma's personality or controlling the Seraphim? Vegapunk really might be an even worse character than Oden... |

| @Gator I think the idea is that Kuma didn't want any backdoor to be 100% sure that he honors his side of the deal for Bonney's sake and the whole deal won't backfire. Vegapunk's backdoor was his selfish wish for worst case scenario (which is Kuma attacking Bonney) |

| @Dahaka_ Even if that 's the case, that argument does not count for the Seraphim. Vegapunk could've just installed a keyword which activates his voice being the dominant one and would not have broken any promises. |

| Dragged the fuck out of this one. I was so excited to see Bonney’s reaction to Nika, but the pacing and ANOTHER flashback really killed the moment. Dorry and Brogy!! It’s been so longgg!! That was pretty cool with Elbaf theme! I really hope they don’t start using the terrible CGI to cut corners in the future episodes… |

| Easily the worst episode since the time skip, the cgi was bad but let’s not complain about that we’ve been eating really good But the pacing… it’s excruciating it hurts me just how much bounce there is The bad pacing ruined dorry and broggy’s amazing entry Toei downplaying sanji all over again The anime has been so good till now So this is how seasonal watchers felt like since Dressrosa huh |

Can confirm it was bad but still worse than the current pacing ;d Tho hopefully it won't become as bad as it was back in the day because I'm tired of constant flashbacks/episode made of nothing bs. The shitty CGI out of nowhere does not help it either. |

@Mahendra496 Exactly how does this episode have good pacing?! it was a drag. I was hyped up a bit watching the episode but honestly the pacing is so bad, we literally only had like 2 things going for the whole episode. This is honestly becoming unbearable, I really hope the future episodes are better or maybe they are saving it for the upcoming episodes.

The problem is that this last 3 chapter in the manga were very small (10-12 pages). Since they have to adapt only 1 chapter per episode, its a little dragged because there isnt much content to adapt.
| @Federik02 Then they should adapt 2 Chapters and after egghead a filler arc. That pacing is so shit. |

| @Federik02 Ignore these type of people that always complains about pacing at this point, they are the definition "I hate watching this show so much because of bad pacing but I am gonna still watch it just because it is trendy on social media" type of people that instead dropping the show entirely to watch something they actually enjoy or reading the manga or just simply do something in their life because the pacing is clearly not to their own liking yet they still proceed to waste their life and complain. |

| @jacobPOL Also it is not dressrosa anymore when there were truly valid critisisms surrounding the pacing that there were a lot of padded shots including reaction and overuse flashbacks, every other arc in the anime and 99% of the episodes are literally panel by panel in terms of plot progression with very few brief original scenes that every adaptation based on the written source has. |

| @AgrMayank Then instead on wasting your life on something you clearly does not like and complaining just simply drop the show and read the manga. Why watching at this point not realizing they have been doing 1 chapter with 4 to 5 minutes shorter in duration format episodes since 2007, and all of the material that is in the episodes are panel by panel in terms of plot progression with very few brief original scenes that every adaptation has based on written source, some episodes could have been faster with also one arc dressrosa arc is better in the manga but everything else has very natural flow/pacing of panel by panel thanks to most episodes having implemented recap at the begining episodes to make actual episodes 4 to 5 minutes shorter in duration to achieve very natural flow/pacing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ci13uOOs3E&t= |

If Sanji had been scratched we surely would have seen him react to it. The problem is that Sanji was tanking those hits for Bonney and Kuma and even deflecting some of them in manga, this isn’t the case here in anime for some reason… Like it is so apparent that toei really has a dislike problem with Sanji. |

| Sooooo this will be first time since I criticised one piece this hard but… What are they doing? This episode should have been fire and they technically ruined every scene they could… They added scenes which makes characters look worse (cough…. Sanji cough…) or the weird pacing issue of stretching scenes more than they should. They trying to ruin this arc or something? Or just saving till Zoro vs Lucci because he is their boy. I am not gonna lie but the conspiracy theory of toei being a zoro glazer is starting to be not far fetched. Like they ruined both Luffy’s and Sanji’s scene. They would never ever do that to Zoro. And that’s actually hilarious because technically speaking this is Zoro’s worst arc since a long time if you were a manga reader. So I don’t know what they are doing here… This should be the first arc in final saga and we starting to have pacing issues like it was dressrosa. Like toei get your stuff together or at this point, I will just wait for some fan edit to fix this, because I am not about to dislike this arc because of incompetent studio. |

Sorry did you just say reactors…. Bruh, you need a reality check. Why do you believe there are fan edits? Surprise, they stretch it out way too much. You would be surprised how many minutes wasted in WCI and wano stretching moments that are so unnecessary. The pacing post timeskip is objectively bad.
| @Confused_100 Why watch the show any further when at this point you feel so exhausted from that "bad pacing" when you could do other things in life or simply watch other anime you like. There is nothing to drop the anime if it is not for you or being manga only reader. I recommend watching this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ci13uOOs3E |

Because if you would read one piece manga then you would not be saying those things surrounding one piece anime. I read it? I am literally reading the recent chapters lol. There’s a literal meme where most fans make fun of anime, that you or anyone can read the whole manga faster than watching post timeskip one piece. There are literal fan edits where 1000s of minutes were removed from many arcs in post timeskip. And I won’t drop the anime, but at this point, I am debating if I should continue this or a fan edit better. |

@GTRaijin also the anime pacing is good majority of post timeskip episodes excluding dressroa, being literally panel by panel in terms of plot progression that means very natural flow/pacing that every adaptation has. If you read the manga then you would not be saying those things surrounding one piece anime considering how post timeskip manga majority of chapters excluding dressrosa are very dense crammed text heavy per chapter that translates to anime with it airing 4 to 5 minutes shorter in duration episodes adapting 1 chapter is a sweet spot of pacing. Look at these panels from one piece manga

| @Confused_100 Also hate to break it to you but gintama most episodes are also 1 chapter per episode the reason? It is the same thing like in one piece manga being very dense text heavy and crammed with material per chapter which also directly translates to the anime adaptation pacing being panel by panel with very few brief original scenes that every adaptation has. Also how many chapters of the weekly manga can be adapted in to anime varies on how dense how much text individual chapters of weekly manga are. |

| @Confused_100 That fan edit is horrible, it is even worse than toei piece, not only it is an insult to animation medium but also the staff that works on the anime. The fact that they are so obsessive with being "everything not in the manga thus needs to be removed" toxic mentality to the point of replacing actual anime scenes with actual manga panels watch here https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hncZtX2Y_MM , also they haven't learnt anything in the present as well. At this point if you really feel like the pacing is not to your own liking I recommend the manga it is perfect and then checking out some of your favorite individual scenes from the manga animated through yotube clips or some fav chapters in individual episodes. There is no requirement to watch entire anime adaptation once up to date with the source material. |

| @Confused_100 also the current arc that is ongoing in the manga is so fun, so I recommend checking out. This arc even with being 32 chapters as of now became my favorite arc tie with fishman island which is also my number 1 favorite, second is skypiea arc, third is whole cake island. In my opinion being a fan of the source material and anime adaptation enjoyer is the best ultimate experience for everything written source/anime related media. Oh I also recommend watching this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ci13uOOs3E that gives an insight on the anime behind the scenes and how anime like one piece is being produced. |

It is universally the best way to watch post timeskip one piece except for Wano forward because that’s when the additions are good/bad depending on some parts. Dressrosa or even punk hazard are trash without fixing the pacing issues it had. Those fan edits fix those problems. You really do need a reality check lol Yeah I am done, the guy is the literal definition of a baiter lol |

| @Confused_100 Ehm no, I just do not take people seriously this much anymore whenever someone use "filler" or "pacing issues" in modern day and age anime that in old times was used as "unoficial hiatus" in older serialized era anime hence the definition but nowadays people twisted this word so much to the point that they started using filler on the scenes they deem boring to them like this was perfect example with solo leveling season 2 episode 7 even though it was canon to the source. Just simply read the manga or drop the show to do more things in your life or watch anime that you like since after all not everything is not for everyone which I respect when people drop something because they feel like it is not for them or simply they do not have time which is understandable, more so than the people that watch something for so long something that they clearly don't like instead dropping it they forcing themselves to watch because it is trendy on social media and complaining. |

jacobPOL said: @AgrMayank Then instead on wasting your life on something you clearly does not like and complaining just simply drop the show and read the manga. Why watching at this point not realizing they have been doing 1 chapter with 4 to 5 minutes shorter in duration format episodes since 2007, and all of the material that is in the episodes are panel by panel in terms of plot progression with very few brief original scenes that every adaptation has based on written source, some episodes could have been faster with also one arc dressrosa arc is better in the manga but everything else has very natural flow/pacing of panel by panel thanks to most episodes having implemented recap at the begining episodes to make actual episodes 4 to 5 minutes shorter in duration to achieve very natural flow/pacing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ci13uOOs3E&t= What are you even talking about. Yes, the pacing is slow (it usually is for most longer running series like One Piece), but it felt slower in this episode. My main complaint is about the new 3D CGI which they added. That looks horrible, out of place, and destroys the otherwise fun artstyle of One Piece. Also, this is one of my favorite series lol, which is one more reason I'm complaining. If I didn't like it, I wouldn't be watching it weekly for over a thousand episodes. |
