| I feel bad about all the guys in Hawkins's crew, they never know when they are going to be used as a sacrifice. |
 |
| A 2/5 from me. If I didn't read the manga, I would give it a 3 or 4/5, but seeing how they stretched it out, I can't give more than 2. These first few chapters are the less action-packed chapters of this beautiful arc in the manga and seeing even these chapters stretched out, I'm worried about the future chapters. I would honestly prefer fillers rather than this snail pacing, but that's my personal opinion. Still, definitely better than Reverie flashbacks, though. |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| Could it have been any slower if it could have. Holy crap I started searching up the forum discussion halfway through cause I need I was gonna miss the next 2 minutes of just transformations and looking at each other. Great content but like only 5 minutes worth. Barely. Love One Piece to death but this was just not good. |
 |
| sweet holy slow pace :) No highlights to be honest I found my food more interesting than the episode |
kaitonic said: I wouldn't mind them covering half a chapter with this beautiful art and animation. We must have watched a different episode or something because this episode was everything but beautiful animation lol it was a power point presentation. Sure some shots of hawkins his monster looked nice and we had some cool storyboarding shots but that was it |
shayed__ said: sweet holy slow pace :) No highlights to be honest I found my food more interesting than the episode Yeah :l I don't see a reason why Hawkins would cause them any trouble. |
| That soundtrack was way too epic for Hawkins. So far he managed to kill a lizard and two of his subordinates, good job. Realistically Luffy and Zoro would've attacked while he was drawing cards, one killing his subordinates while the other prevents him from doing anything and then absolutely destroy him 2 on 1. Would've taken them about 3 minutes. |
| This was pretty boring tbh. F8L-Fool said: Why they would stand around letting a guy draw cards at a snails pace is beyond me. My thoughts exactly. |
 |
Next episode has a weaker staff, damn |

| Hawkin’s soldiers started to attack Luffy and Zoro, but they defeated them easily. Luffy threw Hawkins a giant lizard and he defended himself stopping it with his straw sword, suddenly, Zoro launched him a flying slash that Hawkins diverted to a soldier with his devil fruit. Hawkins used his straw sword to release a giant straw monster and while he was preparing his tarot cards to attack, Komachiyo intervened to take Luffy and Zoro and run, due to Tama’s health, but Hawkins got a good card and the straw monster started to move. Good and solid episode, I’m excited for Hawkins, he looks really cool and threatening, but sorry man, we must go to cure Tama, should fight another day. |
 |
| The beginning with Luffy and Zoro was just hilarious. Luffy calling Zoro Zorojuro and always saying de-gozaru hahahaha. So Zoro noticed Luffys sword and that it has something magical. Of course Luffy didn't let Zoro hold it :D I was curious about what Hawkins was planning. His ability were he has multiple lifes hasn't changed as we could see when Zoro attacked him. What's knew is definitely the straw sword. What surprised me more was that giant thing he created with the sword. Damn that looked threatening. I really liked the animation of it. Normally I wanted to see a nice fight, but Tamas health is way more important, so good thing the dog came for Luffy and Zoro and ran away with them. Next episode should be interesting with more Zoro action. I guess there we will also see the strength of that thing Hawkins created. |
 |
| That was an interesting ability. That Straw man looked a bit like the dude who is in Kid's crew (Heat). Interesting ability. Now it makes sense why those straw-men came out of him after the light dude admiral had shot him with some light beams. |
 |
| Yup I really liked Hawkins since he was introduced and his ability or rather his puppets looked so amazing I do wonder how tarot cards relate to his straw/puppet ability.. And I don't like how he's so very dedicated to Kaido- for now- maybe it'll change |

| Slow but still decent episode. The giant straw monster is scary! |

| Luffy not giving his Katana de gozaru cracked me up. just a noobish question here does Zoro kills those who he cuts with his sword or they just fall i been wanting to know that for a long time now. |
| Holy shit they dragged out Hawkins stuff so much, that was pretty ridiculous. |
 |
| I wonder if Basil Hawkins predicted his chance of winning against Luffy and Zoro and his Yu-Gi-Oh style of fighting is boring. |
 |
Damn, Hawkins is almost immortal... Good fights, once again, Zoro steal the episode  |
| Some interesting scenes, but Hawkins is disgusting. |
| Everyone's talking about pacing but are we really surprised? - This is One Piece we're talking about, they've been doing this for the longest time :( Half of the episode is them staring at each other waiting for their next move, which consists of drawing a card, Also, Hawkins? - More like Strawkins ... |

| LMAO Seeing Luffy fighting with a sword in animation is just so visually awesome yet hilarious all at once! That said, I know for sure that the fight is really stretched out, don't really mind all that much since it's quite a decent fight but it gets annoying when there's nothing going on. But hey, this is One Piece, afterall, something like this is only natural for the anime lol. |
  |
| Poor Otama. Luffy and Zoro need to get there ASAP. Hawkins is a big problem. |
 |
| I really liked the Katana style added to Luffy, and the way how he fought with the Katana too xD Was a very good episode ! |
| August 6th 2023: Biggest upset ever, deception, selfishness, or scammed, manipulated. Heavy damage costs, and more. Days since: 15 Last updated: 8/21/2023 One Piece Episode 1041 & 1042 & 1047 & 1048 & 95.75%/1049 & 1053 were a mistake and Uta brought the salvation -AhriTheS3xyFox |
| Luffy looks like a complete amateur when it comes to using swords but he's surprisingly putting it to good use when using it in tandem with his powers. I wonder if he's actually going to be willing to part with it and let Zoro use it anytime soon lmao It looks like being Hawkins' direct subordinate is a lot riskier than being his actual opponent for the most part. His powers is the definition of high-risk, high-reward and I love it! |
 |
| recently got to 898 after first watching it in 2020 when i wasnt even on ep 300 haha. crazy how much i remembered from it !! was a pretty good episode too tbh. finally at wano |
| Wara Wara no Mi huh? Wanna join the Straw Hat Crew? lol But god damn this episode felt slow af. |
