xKeegaa said: I get why people say this is the worst episode & shit pacing. I don't disagree with that but it's gonna be like that for a while since this arc hasn't finished yet and this is pretty much going to be the same thing with Dressrosa when that arc lasted like 2 years. Not even close to that. Dressrosa entire arc was dragged out, there was alot of new character introductions and individual stories that spanned nearly the entire arc before some of the climax battles finally elevated the story. Where as wano is much much smaller. Think about half of WCI is all it will take to establish most characters and world setting, before the story reaches a new phase. Though i will say this was by far the worst episode of the wano arc, although it was also the worst chapter in the manga. It was the one solitary moment where fans actually though it held no relevance to the plot and instead was used as some sort of like side dish instead. Oda just wanted to put some wrestling stuff in the wano arc, he could have incorporated a little bit better imo though. In any case, things are about to heat up very soon so just be patient. |

| This episode was so slow pace but it is understanding as the manga is not very far away and that we only get 3 chapters a month.Well Bepo cuteness save that episode for me lol |
| The studio needs to take breaks after every act intermission and focus on the grand fleet side stories in my opinion. There has been so much of those that have not even been animated yet. A perfect way to keep the anime further apart from the manga. |

| Yea not a great episode............ Let's just hope that they can nail that ONE scene next week Mei-o_Scarlett said: b-b-b-but its wano so its a good arc XDXD dressrosa cant even compare to this its just a bad ep, we'll totally now get 10/10 quality forever cauise wano is goat Are you that desperate for attention? |
 |
| Well, I liked it. Fight was ok. |
 |
| Seeing Law with the new artstyle makes me geniunely happy Anyways, it's still pretty good but the pacing was somehow even worse than usual, I can see clearly the difference with the One Pace version |
Was it? 1 minite of them making noises trying to fall off the stage and then repeated animations over and over again. Was pretty lacklustre. |

I would love to see the Gedatsu becomes the boss of the blue ocean cover story done as 2-3 episodes. |

I was told about a site called One Pace. I might look into it. Apparently, much like another site did with the entire Naruto series, they're editing One Piece to be more DB Kai-like and get rid of all the filler and padding. I can't help but wonder how many episodes will be cut out completely or reduced to 5 minutes. I know that one and I will definitely make use of it for my rewatch, but only during the later arcs.

| Hottest Take Ever, fite me: Fairy Tail is better than Seiya, Bungou Stray and Hitman Reborn |
| As expected they wasted a whole episode on that stupid sumo fight, the yokozuna fallling exactly on the house where Tama is was so dumb... Pacing is back to absolute shit levels again, who would've thought -_- |
| Compared to the hype it initially created, Wano has been super disappointing so far. Judging from the preview, the next episode probably won't be any better. It's sad because the manga has been absolutely great. I'd rather see occasional anime breaks or some fillers here and there like in Arabasta instead of this shitty pacing. Wano is a strong candidate for being the arc with the worst pacing. Dressrosa might be dethroned. I mean, it has almost been 3 months since the arc started but nothing happened so far! |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| The sumo match was dragged out even more than I expected... |
 |
| Can't remember when was the las time I've seen episodes stretched like a rubber band... Was it Thriller Bark? Gyojin island? |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |

| The pacing has been the same for years now...would you rather it completely caught up to the manga? Then what? |
 |
| I should try to wait few weeks and watch them in a batch that way we probably enjoy it a lot more and just skip the repeated parts. |

| I agree this episode was pretty dragged and nothing really happened. We all know what would have happened if Luffy got a little bit serious against Yokozuna. But it's Luffy, all he wants is to have fun. At least Yokozunas flight right into Holdems face was funny to see + now Luffy and Zoro definitely have the attention of everyone. Besides from that there's nothing more to say. |

I can't help but wonder how many episodes will be cut out completely or reduced to 5 minutes. It basically reduces the watchtime by around 55%.I started with normal OP till the fishman island arc and switched right after since the pacing got too much for me. Enjoyed it a lot more after that but now that I've caught up you have no choice since you need to wait like a few weeks after it was aired initially for the newer eps. Works if you're patient though. |

Enjoyed it a lot more after that but now that I've caught up you have no choice since you need to wait like a few weeks after it was aired initially for the newer eps. Works if you're patient though. I believe it. After finding a site with all the episodes listed by standard, filler, and padded, I was shocked by how many episodes weren't actually an episode. I've skipped something like 200 episodes now, and I don't plan on going back to seeing them. I might just have to wait a few weeks as well. Thankfully I'm all caught up on the manga anyhow, so I'm not actually missing anything. I just wanted to see certain scenes animated. |
| I reject your reality, and substitute my own. |
| The pacing is an unfortunate necessary I have grown to accept, but is there really any excuse for the lazy reuse of animation? They could drag out the fight and make it look good.. |

FMmatron said: Hands down, worst episode of Wano so far! Contentwise weak and milked as fuck. Wasn't even able to finish it without fasting forward. At least Luffy kicking sumo asshole was satisfying   |
| What a dragged fight that was especially when they were struggling not to fall, that was just fucking ridiculous. And how many times did that fat bastard yelled "I am the great Yokozuna" damn. |
 |
| Luffy started a battle against Urashima, he won using a giant palm with gear third and sending him flying over the house where Holdem was. Law was about to go and check Luffy’s group, Bepo is sick. The only good thing was that giant smash Urashima received, everything else is irrelevant. |
 |
| I enjoyed it. Twas kinda hard to see tama get her cheek pulled though almost had to get my army out and invade that place.. Though Glad thanks to the gods it was stopped by luffy thrusting the fat man into the building. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I can't say the fight was actually what I had hoped for, and I somewhat hope there's a cooler sumo character somewhere in Wano, but the end was cool. Luffy shouting that he's going to be the king was hilarious, and the way Zoro stood up beside him and admitted to killing the magistrate was just spicy. Bring us your boss!!!! So, wait, I'm only just now realizing, Zoro actually killed him? 100%? Maybe I'm forgetting, but I feel like typically we wouldn't explicitly mention that one of the Straw Hats killed somebody. |
| A somewhat a comedic sumo fight. Ofc the Sumo fight was dragged, ofc it's pretty mediocre and ofc it ended in a somewhat decent ending with Urashima being cannonballed on to the next shipment for Holdem's mailbox. Did I enjoy it? Pretty much. I knew Luffy will bring up how he'll be the Pirate King once Urashima kept saying that he's the Yokozuna, but damn the fact that he spoke it in such manner is perfect! YoooOOOOooOo Whenever someone brought up about Zoro being the magistrate killer, I always got the image of Zoro slicing up the magistrate and his building all over again in true 'no u' fashion. And now seeing Zoro just sitting down before Luffy as a way of showing their relationship and highlighting the fact that Luffy is Zoro; the killer's leader. Oh man, that is awesome! Okiku following along and taking a readied stance only made it better. Aight, now these 3 runs the gig here, bring your weirdo boss over here so they can clap his lion's ass. |
  |
| Bepo was too cute for Law. LOL |
 |
| Law really thinks he's gonna stay low? XD |
| Wow, it was so brutal seeing Tamas cheek getting pulled ! But the fight was very hilarious xD, Urashima finally gets a taste of his won medicine ! Best part was Urashima was sent flying to the guy that was torturing Tama!! LEAVE TAMA ALONE!!! |
| 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 |
| While the first half of the episode was just Luffy and Urashima making weird noises, the second half was very amusing. Nonetheless, I really hope that there wouldn't be any more moments where it's obvious as hell that they're padding for time. I ended up wincing in pain at seeing how rough Otama's cheek was pulled. At least Luffy somehow ended up alleviating her pain by having the disgraced yokozuna crash through Holdem's hideout. |
 |
| >wannabe sumo wrestler >record: undefeated against usopp AHAHAHAHAHAHAH |
 |
| One of the funniest episodes unintentionally, the way Toei stretched it more than Luffy's fruit was hilarious, especially the part where Luffy and the sumo guy were waddling backwards and almost falling for like a minute |
| Oda missed a great chance to make Luffy fat just to have this battle and make it funny. |
