Zoro and Law's interactions was hilarious haha. I'm glad we got to see more of Carrot as well. Interesting stuff. Chopper without his hat is so weird xD
Really enjoyed the filler stuff this week, more than I thought I would. Was a fun episode ^^

Filler episode as expected, It was pretty fun to watch I guess.

Technically, the whole treating Zunisha's wounds is actually canon since in the manga you can see Zunisha's wound was treated before the StrawHats left. It's just that it was never actually shown explicitly.

Brook was pretty badass in cutting those trees.
Zoro and Law's interactions were hilarious. xD

I seriously think we could have done without the whole wind storm this episode, that felt completely unnecessary.

Carrot was so cute at the end when she was trying to ask Luffy if she could join him. <3
Well we're back to canon next week and I saw someone we all know in the PV. :3

Honestly in my opinion filler episodes in One Piece aren't that bad because the characters are just so funny and charming it makes for a really just nice and calm episode, especially after all the screaming and pain of last weeks episode. I really enjoyed this episode!! :)

I knew it was going to be filler this week, so I wasn't disappointed. It was a pretty entertaining bit of fluff as far as filler goes. It kind of felt like they were trying to foreshadow that Carrot is going to be the next Straw Hat. But maybe that was just me.
I'm really looking forward to the next episode, from the preview it looks like a character we haven't seen in ages will be making an appearance. My body is ready.

I liked this episode, showing the crew helping out the crew that have been hit so hard by Jack's attack

I'd love for Carrot to become a Straw Hat!

A familiar pair spotted at the end there!!!!

Another great episode!
Everyone helped to treat Zunisha's wound.
Carrot seems to want to go with them, I'm sure that Sanji would be really happy if she joined them.

Overall, a really good episode,(even though it was just filler).

I loved the interaction between Zoro and Law. Having Carrot and Luffy coming into that when they did & Carrot tease Zoro about his sense of direction was hilarious.

Two things in this episode that I really liked was how they went in and filled in the story of how they bandaged/healed the hurt leg,(in the manga it was just a couple of panels and then moved on). Also, it showed why Carrot wants to go out to sea with Luffy and the Strawhats,(nothing like this was done in the manga). I agree with others in that it feels like they are trying to set up Carrot for next Nakama, but I don't know if they are going in that direction,(honestly I'd be on board with that,(especially since Jinbe made his promise to join way back in the Fishmen Island Arc).

Next weeks episode should be a blast with the momentary return of a personal favorite character & the crew setting off for Whole Cake Island.

I'm not sure about Carrot joining; we definitely need a little more character development for that just in case it does happen. Anyways, we're still waiting on Jinbe. Finally, they're going to rescue Sanji!

A filler episode like expected. Wasn't to bad. That Zoro and Law moment was so funny omg :D

Hmm I would like to see Carrot beeing part of the Straw Hats, but I think as someone mentioned, there has to be a little bit more character developement for her. Maybe we will see something of it in the future.

I wonder what Luffy want from Nekomamushi. And what going on in the preview? Did I saw Vivi? :o

I really hate filler, you can feel it instantly, all the characters instantly revert to their lowest selves. and everything becomes so meaningless, empty and devoid of heart and soul.

how ever as filler goes this wasn't tooooo bad, excluding the storm, that was terrible.

So it was a filler-ish episode after all. I thought so, but wasn't 100% sure, because it was pretty fun :> Construction site made by Robin's hands looked pretty damn impressive lolz.

Also, Carrot is pretty cute, I won't mind seeing a bit more of her if she goes with Luffy's team to rescue Sanji. Can't wait to see Vivi next ep!

Definately one of the better episodes. Whenever Zoro and Law have a "comedic moment" it always makes me laugh (no homo) ;)

Also Franky even has his hair shaped as the giant whale tree!

Also something I noticed, Robin doesn't have to keep her arms crossed to keep her "flowers", only make them. Bartolomeo has to keep his fingers crossed to keep the barrier. Just some fun fact ;)

Law using Shambles on Zoro was priceless!

Also, after the way Carrot was acting at the end of the ep, I find it hard to believe that she won't join the crew. Her dreams of sailing out to Sea remind me so much of the other Straw Hats that I'll be so surprised if she's not next Straw Hat!

I don't mind either, after this episode she's definitely a character I'd like to see more of. She's a strong, adorable bunny girl, what's not to like?!

This episode was an interesting one for me. From the very beginning there was off model art despite how great One Piece has consistently looked which set off some alarms in my head. Then when it was clear we would be focused on something unimportant to the general plot I began to assume that this was absolutely filler. Down time in One Piece can be really cool, this is the best seen when the crew is traveling or when they’re celebrating. But in this episode, for the most part, it wasn’t. The characters all were robotic at times, feeling as if we were watching a play with actors pretending to be the Straw Hats and performing their gimmicks. This was charming at times but the whole ‘look at how the Straw Hats work together and show off the strengths we’ve seen 100 times’ was akin to the scene where they fought the bugs. I did like Kin’emon, Raizo, and Brook cutting trees, or Franky shooting nails for instance. I would just prefer new interactions and quieter moments but with this presumably being filler, I understand why this was the case.

That said as the episode continued, I had to question if it was filler. Law and Zoro having an interaction they’ve never had before where he kept tabs on Zoro to cover his sense of direction. Wanda and Pedro having shown Nami a map to Big Mom’s feels as though it will be relevant but it could possibly never come up in canon again, that is unless Pedro and Wanda do come along. Carrot had some adorable characterization. Instead of being the child rabbit girl full of moe and excitement, we realized she was this way because she wanted to see the world. She loved seeing the wonderful people from the big sea, they gave her an idea of what it was like out there and she wanted to explore. This is similar to Soran from Tequila Wolf, one of my favorite filler characters, but it gave Carrot more depth and made me care about her on a slightly deeper level than saying ‘aww’.

Finally, the episode directly started where the last very important episode ended, and this one finished with canon events like seeing Pekoms again or the Carrot characterization. It had some uncanny art and some rather vapid character moments without much overarching plot or character relevance, but it did have characterization and new interactions and it fit into the canon perfectly. It makes me think this had to be mixed canon and if so or even if not, this episode was a great example of how to do filler. It felt important enough to capture my attention, and now looking at the thread, to see this was like Tequila Wolf in that it was a canonical event which wasn’t shown in the manga and thus extended in the anime, all suddenly makes sense. Good job Toei!

Well this episode was half filler but what in the hell is wrong with Chopper's head without hat ? ce

Carrot is kindda kawaii.

Zoro as always bad with directions.

I hope Carrot will travel with Luffy the next arc.

It looks like they'll finally be setting off to their next destinations after patching Zunesha up!

From the looks of it, it's very likely that Carrot will end up tagging along with the Straw Hats to Whole Cake Island judging from how excited she is about getting to go out to see the world outside her hometown. I'm definitely all for it since she's such a cutie, after all.

The One Piece filler is funny. I feel it adds an extra touch of adventure to the series.

Spanish translation:
Es divertido el relleno the One Piece. Siento que le agrega un toque extra de aventura a la serie.
