Law managing to stay away from Doflamingo. Sanji arriving just in time to help the guys. Looks like we will see him vs Doflamingo.

I can't wait for the battle! I wonder if sanji + law will be enough to defeat doflamingo ( I doubt sanji alone will do the trick)

All in all, a great episode. It had more action & seemingly less filler in it than the previous couple of episodes.

I was relieved to see that Law was not as hurt as he was letting on. The fight, (possibly), between he & Doffy will be fun to watch.

Kudos on the nice save for Sanji!! I hope Sanji can hold his own, but I fear he is about to have his butt handed to him by Mingo.

Speaking if Doffy, I am interested in his backstory & what led him to leave the life of a Celestial Dragon & become a pirate?

Cavendish is showing how strong a fighter he is, (still seems like he has not gone all out, (or even close to it yet).

The more I see Rebecca fight, the more I am convinced she has Observation Haki. Also, it is nice to see her hold her own when she is constantly outnumbered in these fights.

I can not wait for the next episode & see more of Block D's fights. Also, I am curious as to watching the fanboy exchange between Zoro & Bartolomeo.

It felt like such a short episode but oh well. Sanji is here to save the day! I wonder what Doflamingo's back story is. Especially when he said that he wasn't a celestial dragon anymore.

I think Sanji might be able to put up a decent fight, but he can't beat Doflamingo for sure. Or can he?

I'm about ready to join you! As much as I've enjoyed my One Piece on Saturday/Sunday mornings, this pace is destroying the plot.

Like there is no reason Nami, Brook AND Chopper took so long to defeat that pathetic art lady.

I think I might do the same. I've resisted for a long time. I'll probably start reading at the beginning of the arc to see how the art looks in high quality.

I don't understand why Law doesn't change locations of Doflamingo and an underwater rock with his ability. So that Doflamingo will be submerged into the sea and will die inevitably.

Decent episode until Mingo saw the Sunny Go. From there it turned into an awesome episode. That Mingo's Smile though... Such a badass. But it was far from good. One Piece can do much better. 4/5.

Yep, the movements of characters were hmmmm, would lame be the right word for it?


Okay, I think that for now, episodes 650 and 651 were best - best animation, best pacing, best quality

Last few episodes followed, same goes for this one, solid episode.

It's clear now that anime has gone so close to manga, that they decided to make a one week pause, so the next episode will be aired August 3 - it's why we have so many fillers in last few episodes. I personally don't mind them, I'm enjoying every episode, but man, it would be some much better with better pacing.

Sanji's kick could have been done better, I've imagined something with three towers ost playing in background and Sanji slowly steping in, while we only see his legs, but who cares anyway, it still was cool and I'm glad that we got to see it in this episode.

Something about Sanji, last three arcs - Fishman Island, Punk Hazard and now Dressrosa, it's seems that he always gets more attention compared to some others Straw hats ( Brook and Chopper) and right now, he makes the most of the episodes/chapters funny, interesting, and even epic. He always have some kind of weird experiences, weird adventures( Switching bodies on Punk Hazard, the thing with Violet on Dressrosa) and he is always fun to watch. It's just that I would like some big focus on other characters as well.

Sorry for the wrong text, and yes, Go go Sanji, Go Go TOEI - I'm waiting for a good episode next week because there really were epic stuff in that chapter

Well we still haven't seen Sanji fight to his best after the two year period. I just hope his abilities can at least piss of Doflamingo and possibly hurt him. If Doflamingo wins without scars, this anime will have gone nowhere with character development

Overall, a pretty decent episode. Still, few things came to mind - first, don't understand why Rebecca wants the Flare Flare fruit, if the only thing she can do is dodge enemy's attacks? How does she expect to fight against Doflamingo like that? Even Luffy didn't hesitate to throw a punch to his opponents in the arena, no matter how kind he is. Second, I was cheering for Law when he finally escaped (felt kinda bad for him in the last few episodes, chased around like that). His concern for Straw Hats, when they were in danger, actually surprised me; didn't expect that from Law (he looks like guy, who likes to distance himself from others). And finally, Sanji's entrance made me jump from my seat (he's my favorite SH):D Really looking forward to next week.

probably because law's powers don't work or extend to underwater as well cause his powers also from a devil fruit?? i'm not sure though

yes, it can do much better... we've seen that.. for about 500+ episodes
not once after the time skip though

terrible animation (especially in fights), way too colorful... rebecca's outfit is retarded, nami is 80% boobs (miss the old nami) etc.

hopefully Toei Animation will stop being fucking lazy soon and work on that terrible animation

and if Oda could work on proper costumes for the characters and stop overdoing the fanservice, that'd be great


oh.. and it's always nice to see that nami, chopper, brook etc. have all become way bigger pussies after the time skip (even though they were meant to mature and get stronger)

I think that D-block part is boring. There are so many guys left, I don't know how long it will be, but it seems now that it will be 95% waste of time. So during several weeks only a half of episode will have a chance to be interesting. I hope it will not be the case.

It was a pretty good episode minus the animation. It was definitely better than some of the worse episodes in this arc. However, I think I'm nearly at the end of my patience with the pace. As much as I like One Piece, I'm strongly considering placing it on hold until the arc is over.

One Piece is pretty awesome to marathon, but watching it week-to-week like this is brutal. v.v

I finally feel like things are heating up. The last few episodes have been feeling kind of slow and uneventful. Things I am looking forward to right now aside from (obviously) the fight about to happen between sanji and doffy include: finding out what will happen next in the Colosseum after the four block winners are selected, what will happen with bartolomeo and violet (considering they both are showing an interest for the straw hats I wonder if one will join the crew or become part of straw hats supporting crew or something), and finally, if there are more unexpected characters to come within this season.

Damn I was freaking out the last few minutes when the Straw Hats were discovered. I knew somebody was coming to save them... as most of the guys on the ship are useless against such a huge enemy lol.

I didn't expect it to be Sanji though, but oh my... that was such a badass entrance.

Probably because since Devil Fruit Users are super weak to the seawater, likewise their abilities do not work with anything in the water. The same concept would be applied to, say, Robin, if she tried to use her ability to pick something out of the water. It wouldn't work.
