| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Luffy beat the man who can look into the future, no surprise attacks against him anymorealmost Wano continues to go strong and I'm still impressed by all the quality poured into this arc. Tama's voice came as a surprise, tho. But she has an interesting dialect and imo very fitting. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Another stellar episode for Wano, happy to see the quality consistency still in there in all of its glory. Action packed episode, gotta love how they are expanding things in a more natural way than the manga (and not just for the sake of padding, such as all of the arcs since the timeskip). It does help that Wano in the manga is really overpacked and fast paced as a whole, thus giving oportunity to the adaptation to slow down a bit and explore the chapter adapted better. 5/5 |
 |
| Tama is so cute. I hope they expand on the Ace backstory with Tama as in the manga it was only a few pages. Filler has been decent so far. Manga readers? |

But she has an interesting dialect and imo very fitting. Why the surprise? I really like the aesthetic style of this arc, hopefully the quality won't drop. I'm counting down to having it coming closer to the manga, although I really do have to wonder if they'll run into pacing issues |
| That Zoro's scene is really great. Also the eye line when Luffy used his advance Kenbushoku Haki is really great, you can see Nagamine's influence in there since he also did it on Strong World movie. Also it seems like next episode they will strecth episode with expand Ace's backstory with Otama. It will be good filler since the manga didn't explain it so much. |
 |
| This was absolutely amazing, everything from the increase in art quality, the visuals and even the fluidity of the animation. Each scene just had alot more oomph to it, even the characters expressions were intimidating and felt more strongly. The transitional moments between scenes was great. I think the studio is really going all out for this arc. Each episode almost feels like one of those climatic moments of LUffy Vs doflimingo, or luffy and Katakuri and these episodes are just ordinary moments in this arc. I can't imagine when they actually show the more note worthy scenes in this arc. Preview spoiler |
  |
| Pacing still an issue, I was hoping for a little more. |
| Otama is cute as fk.. her ability is also cool, to be able to tame any beast and befriend them is kinda like Pokemon isn't it? Never really watched Pokemon so I can't say for sure. A cool episode I guess but it felt hella short and its almost like nothing really happened. |
| Zoro is now a wanted man in Wano and 3 of the Straw Hats are worried about Zoro causing trouble. Even Usopp had to make up a fake story to conceal his connections with Zoro, lol. Megumi Han is the VA for Tama's voice, isn't she? I think her voice is very fitting for Tama. Well, she's going to have one long role in the One Piece anime. Tama is too cute... >w> |
| Hey, Usopp's lies can make a grown man cry:-D :-D :-D. Luffy is already a big brother to cute Tama. Man I'm loving this arc right now! |

| Wano saved the One Piece Anime. For real though. The Quality of the Show has gone up significantly since the Wano Arc started.I kind of expected it to be better but not this much. I remember When I read this part on the Manga. I had just about to catch up with it. Otama felt like she was gonna be the next straw hat back then and I still feel that right now. Also does Anyone know who does Otama's voice in the Anime? I'm a bit curious. Next Episode will be a tear jerker for some. This is one of those few times I hope for the Anime to expand on something from the Manga. Most of the reasons I think Otama might become a part of the Strawhat Crew Will be shown next episode. |

WolfDBreidi said: Hahaha, Franky, Robin and Ussop worried about the mess that Zoro has made ... and he is very quiet taking his sake 😂. I do not believe it, seriously killed the magistrate. LOL. Otama has a skill that adds to the weirdest devil fruits of One Piece xD. Regarding the Kozuki Clan, I need to know more. "The legend of Ace in the land of Wano"? I think Oda wants to shed some tears in the next episode :(. Ps: So far I can not believe that Basil Hawkins and X-Drake have joined Kaido: v. Gonna spoil it for you a bit. If you liked Ace You are gonna cry next week. |

| A loli appears, a cute one at that and it seems she has a useful ability.Also looks like Zoro became more bad ass during the time he was absent. |
 |
| Loved this episode too! I love all the effort they're putting in this arc. I actually keep wanting more each episode. |

Afloo said: Also does Anyone know who does Otama's voice in the Anime? I'm a bit curious. I posted it in my post above, and I confirmed it. It's really Megumi Han. Same voice as Akko from Little Witch Academia and Gon from HxH 2011. :) https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2019-07-12/megumi-han-mariya-ise-join-one-piece-anime-cast/.148948 And Okiku will be voiced by Mariya Ise. Huh? Gon & Killua are now in One Piece. ;D |
FreshIngredient said: Pacing still an issue, I was hoping for a little more. Gythia said: I wish they'd make it faster-paced, but still really good episode They can't. Because if they make it faster, anime will catch up with manga so they won't havr enough material for anime. Even the manga is still on Wano Kuni arc. |
|
| Pretty enjoyable. The episode went by fast. Tama is pretty adorable. Next week, it's time to see Ace's time in Wano. |
 |
| well nice to see how it all goes...but it will take sometime |
 |
| Zoro's scene really gave me the chills Got a good laugh out of the Usopp lying to the officer scene Luffy has gained an imouto, never thought that would happen |
 |
| otama is so adorable and her devil fruit ability is cute too but omg I can't wait to see ace again!! |
| Anyone else noticed that the opening is actually changing every single episode? Well, this is the second episode only, but after the scene where Kaido smashes Luffy into the ground, we get random scenes from the current episode (they're decorated with stones on the sides). I noticed it because I rewatched the opening many many times the last week, because I loved it, and I was surprised to see that this week the opening is different at that part. My favourite part was Usopp showing off how good he became at lying. It's funny. The animation and everything is still awesome. I'm hyped for next episode. I barely remember anything from the manga about Ace in this arc. I hope it will have more details here. |
| @NomThead No reason in particular, but as most poeple I always have a voice in mind while reading the manga. For Tama I was expecting something different in the vein of Uraraka from Boku no Hero, but Megumi Han is doing pretty great here. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Hope the quality remain the same. So far I'm liking it. |
| Good episode but not as good as last week's. Pacing a bit slow and Luffy was poorly drawn some times. Got the feeling that next episode they will show Ace past story there way more than in the manga. |
| Toei really upped the quality in those Zoro scenes, in others their well-known "quality" still shines through a bit though. But overall this is one of the best starts of any recent One Piece arc. |

| Meh episode, only thing interesting was seeing that one of the rookies betrayed kid and joined Kaido (pretty obvious from the den den mushi that the eyes were the same as scarecrow's, his hair was also blonde). The quality in a lot of scenes also went somewhat down compared to the previous episode, other than with Zoro and some luffy only shots, still it's not as bad as big mom's garbage arc yet so there's that. |
 |
| Zoro's attack was awesome, nobody can complain about the animation now. |
 |
| Think about this: If Tama´s ability can tame beasts, what kind of potential she have to command the entirety of the beasts of Kaido? By the way, visuals still looking nice, Zoro killing people, and the voice of Tama really fits her. I liked the episode. |
| Zoro became an assassin. Luffy remembered that Sanji jumped with everyone else, but an octopus withheld him, the lion and the monkey were still fighting. Two scouts captured a little girl for not respecting the actual Shogun, they were running to the beach when they encountered with Luffy and tried to attack him, Luffy quickly defeated them and freed the girl named Tama, friend of the lion-dog, she tamed the monkey and became Luffy’s friend. The story continued as Zoro became an outlaw wanted for justice. Luffy saved a girl named Tama, looks like she’s gonna be important. |
 |
| No more surprise attacks on Luffy. There's so much color and life in this show right now it's awesome. |
 |
| The action was good, but the pacing issues can still be felt, unfortunately... |
| Felt like nothing interesting happened in this episode except for the introduction of that little girl with purple hair |
| One should not simply mess with Luffy. Finally Otama appears in the anime too. Seems like the card rookie have teamed up with Kaido for now (probably gonna backstab him somehow). I suppose Kid is the only one who haven't teamed up with him. Alright ep. Funny to see that Zoro didn't care a bit for being wanted. Haahah, so typical him. His tatsumaki attack is more furious than ever. It wiped the whole place, not bad at all. Next time Ace gonna come with a comeback. Ahh, that's gonna be exciting and sad at the same time. Ahhh, Ace! 😭😭😭 |

I am glad I weren't the only one who notice a bit lower quality in animation than the previous ep. But that's to be expected. |

| With this arc I realized how much I missed seeing Zoro fight. That scene where he created the giant twister looked awesome. Also the scene at the beach with Luffy, everything looks so much better as in the Whole Cake Island arc. Luffy got so much stronger. How he reacted to the guy who wanted to shoot him is on such another level. Haoshoku Haki as expected got also used to tame the ape. Otama also has an interesting ability. Was that a little mochi she created of her cheek? Looking forward to the next episode. I love to see something more about Ace. Should get interesting, especially for Luffy. |
 |
| Dayum, It seems like I'm not watching one piece, the difference in quality is unreal. |
