THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
That animation with the second charge and hit was insane! We got a couple of things here: Romance, drama, action, feels, and plot progression. Pretty good episode. At least we can be rest assured that the rest of the fights going down are going to end great.

Looking forward to the end of another executive battle next week!

the results from the start to right now:
Lao G - Fell
Don Chinjao - Fell
Baby 5 -Fell in love <3 <3 <3 hahaha
Hjirudin and Mahavise - Fell

and now Sai is going to be all Love-Love with Baby with?!?! <3 hahaha
she had a horrible past though i think she should be told that this world isn't just about being useless or not but for being for someone who cares about you :)

It looks like they won't show us any fillers, but instead, they will fill up the gap with minor fights like this. It feels just like the four consecutive filler episodes shown while the train Rocket Man was falling into the deepless waterfall in the Enies Lobby ark. I think there will be several more minor fights like this until Beramy finishes his attack.

This isn't a minor/filler fight at all. The Executives of the Donflamingo family are finally going down. Also, SOMETHING SOMETHING MANGA SPOILERS, but these characters are going to be pretty important in the future.

Great stuff, especially the funny moments.

Lao G almost dying was great. Someone that old should definitely be on the verge of death. He also pulled off a Zoro (masked swordsman, not One Piece Zorro), and imprinted a "G" on Chinjao.

Sai is also moving up in life. Got his grandpa's approval, got Baby 5 and got a new attack.

I watched this episode out of the blue because they adapted a chapter I really liked, and man, I was positively surprised. Sai is da man. His Drill Nail had incredible animation in modern Toei standards.

Great episode for so many reason.

Dem feels for Baby 5.

Dat animation for the final scene was actually really good. It was pretty surprising to see.

Massive respect to Sai in this episode. Didn't expect him to get so much development!

Was hoping for more Luffy but that love story was actually worth it. Even the backstory of Baby 5 was intersting.

While it's nice for Baby 5 to change sides. I hope she doesn't (if she ever returns in future arcs) change sides again (like being kinda fickle), and will just abandon Sai if some other character (antagonist basically) claims she needs her. You know, because of her personality flaws. Hope she isn't so shallow.


An example would be how she would've abandon Doflamingo earlier if Doflamingo hadn't killed her past finances.

What did I see in this episode? It was like power rangers fight!
This by far is the worst episode I can remember in one piece :/
I am so upset since one piece episode is my literally award every week after the hard work :(

On a positive note: we got rid of two of the family, including the super annoying Law G.
Although I don't think baby5 will stay on this side for long.

Edit: apparently people liked this episode very much. I don't really understand

Well, for one it had good pacing for once and overall decent animation (compared to the low budget crap we get most of the time anyways). It was the perfect blend of comedy and action and it also had a pretty nice emotional moment that gave a character depth and made him more likable. I actually don't understand how someone who likes One Piece can seriously think this is "one of the worst episodes" when it pretty much embodies everything that makes this series so enjoyable, but opinions are opinions I guess.

Woah this was a great episode I never expected this episode to be this amazing......the animation was top notch from the start to the end and I really liked the chemistry between Sai and Baby 5 and the fight between Chinjao and Lao G was amazing...........but the highlight of this episode which made it totally EPIC was the fucking Drill Dragon Nail in the end............DAMN THE ANIMATION WAS EPIC AS FUCK........tbh for a moment I thought madhouse was making it...............had to say way better than the manga..............10/10 no doubt keep the amazing work toei.

I've got so much positive reactions from this episode. The comedy was spot-on and I laughed so much at the comedy with Lao G on the first half. Lao G's fighting techniques were just overall consistent and fast-paced that I never drove my attention away from them. The battle animations are fantastic, I say! There's an interesting backstory with Baby 5 that I still would like to know more about. Nothing felt slow in this episode AT ALL! Sai's confession was badass! The impact of Sai's finishing blow to Lao G was also well animated and there's the lovey-dovey Baby 5 who managed to keep the smile on my face. Sai was actually arranged to marry somebody? Ew, that creature err...."bride-to-be" looks like someone from Ivankov's kingdom! xP Baby 5 is absolutely better by a longshot. :P

There were some previous One Piece episodes that felt dragged and really boring but this one is the kind of episode that I rarely see in the anime. I'm just sooooo glad to see this chapter animated and it was a whole lot better than I thought! This episode was so awesome that I don't mind rewatching this ep over and over and over and over and over and over and over again!! :D Toei needs to keep the quality as consistent as this for the upcoming episodes. Maigawd I just love this episode very much. Job well done, Toei!

HHahha, lol. What a funny and amusing ep. I really enjoyed it. So that's why baby 5 act like that. I am glad she finally found one that hopefully have use for her. It were sad to see that from the beginning she were used by anyone. She has finally found someone that really wants her too (not getting used like she had been in the past).

Is it a thing that everyone in this series have a sad past. LOL

Lol, well in the beginning of this arc she tried to kill "waka-sama". Though she failed, but I think she would stick with the one she found that time if it weren't for doflamingo and his allies to kill him off (even though we never knew who he was).

Personally I think it were a good ep. filled with a lot of action and romance/drama, and some feels from Baby 5 past. I think that's the key point why people liked it. I mean the previous fight in this arc after the tournament weren't that good. I think this fight were one of the best, imo.

It were good animated too, though I never understood why Sai mouth had so much movement when he were about to defeat Lao G. I understand it were because of the wind, but I think that were the only part the animation were lame and bad. ^^

This was a great episode, far better than I would've ever assumed Sai vs Baby 5 could be (not being a manga reader.) The only downside was more Bellamy.

I really liked this episode. Baby 5 and Sai, finally some romance haha. Also Lao G down, and Baby 5 in love. That's 2 exec's less to worry about. Baby 5 trying to kill herself moved me, and the way Sai handled the situation was superb. I would've done it the same way. I wonder what important roles those 2 are going to play in the future as a commenter said.

How can you hate the greatness known as Lao G?
"G"reatness, there's the "g"!

Anyway, I think Lao G has the best voice acting. He's just so into it, you can't help but chuckle at his high pitched "HADDAAAAA!!!" Plus he almost died naturally in the middle of battle.

But yeah, Gladius is one of my favourites and I love his design.....he's the only one I think looks better in the present than the past. And I love how he's always pissed off at something.
Lao G., Senor Pink, Trebol, Baby 5 are my other favourite executives, and Dellinger has grown on me. Machvise and Buffalo are my least liked.
Actually almost completely forgot about Buffalo. Hope he doesn't show up again.

On another note, if not for it being One Piece, that Baby 5 scene could be taken in pretty dark directions.
I feel like Oda doesn't like to go to those extremes to depress people though, otherwise some could complain it's too dark.

I guess its the design that i really dislike. I know One Piece is famous for weird looking characters and i really like it sometimes but i think the Doflamingocrew had too much of them. Doflamingo, Gladius, Baby 5 and Trebol are the only charecters that look cool.

Loved this episode so much, though I must admit I'm a fan of all 4 of this episode's key players. I expected to like this episode since I liked it in the manga but I feel Toel did an incredible job at getting the jokes to connect and more importantly making the fighting scenes have impact.

I remember the only thing I disliked about the fight was Lao G going down after a single attack from Sai but in this episode we get to see them actually fight. I have zero qualms about this episode, it's the kind of episode I can't get enough of. Fantastic action, comedy, actual freaking romance (that's pretty cute), and the animation at points made my jaw drop. 10/10. ^_^
