| Fantastic episode F for Tama |
| Cool ep., but talk about dragging. Amazing what Toei can accomplish when it comes to drag and stretch the materials. However, even as dragged the fight was furious and good. The animation was quite good. I agree with others that the animation of the elephant gun was great animated and had a chill feeling with it. It gave most of us goosebumps. ;) If I were new into shounen anime I would really feel with Luffy and be concerned about Otama, but we all know that this shounen troll card have been overused. Somehow, in a miraculously way, both his crew and Tama is still alive. Looks like Kaido wrecks the town out of anger and Luffy strikes back out of anger. This ep. can be summed in one sentence: angry Luffy vs. angry Kaido. LOL! I feel more sorry for Law. Poor guy. He know he made the worst possible decision to make an alliance with the Straw Hat crew, especially with Luffy as their captain. He has really ruined the plan now. LOL |

DavyBack said: link9us said: ok This is one time where i honestly have to disagree with you. First of all this isn't atrocious pacing, your just blinded by the manga's current pace that you think everything in the anime has to match that speed panel by panel. Here is a piece of advice for you and for any other anime only watchers reading this, if you don’t already know, Naito himself even indicated that the wano arc of one piece in the manga is a little too fast. Oda is revealing the story at record breaking speed compared to what he normally does and perhaps that is why we are getting so much information so quickly but on the same token, many epic confrontations and battles were even off screened and you know this being a reader yourself. So I do appreciate the studio adding a bit more to these battles. The surprise factor doesn't change because the end result is still the same and the encounter still exemplified the way the manga protrayed it with luffy on the offensive and kaido acting more like a tank taking blow for blow. The storytelling was really different from the source material. The reason why the whole situation was so crazy in the manga was because it all happened in an instant and the unpredictability of things reflected the characters way better. There were also several scenes in the 2nd half of the episode that had Kaido having a power struggle with Luffy, and moments like that just downplay the actual strength of the characters. I still think this was a great episode on it's own right. And a well paced one too as there's a lot of new stuff so the scenes are more extended rather than dragged out. But in all honesty the narrative portrayed here wasn't in line with Oda's at all. I hardly doubt Kaido had any power struggle with Luffy. He was just toying with him. As an only anime viewer I interpreted it like that. :) |

WOW what an episode... D best elephant gun so far  lots of nice punches, but I think that he'll need more than that if he want to take Kaido down...Damn, poor Speed sama got kicked really hard, and Otama too  Can't wait for next episode  |
| That was a fantastic episode, really amazing! I have nothing to say. The way they did it was simply perfect! At this point I can't undertand some people who say stuff like "wasn't that bad" or "I'am not according" about the animation of this ep. I don't know what kind of quality anime are they seeing better than this, I hope someone tell me, because I' am sure it can't be better than this. As a fan of OP I haven't complaints this time. It's not like sometimes there's not things to do better in OP, but to me this time you can't say you are dissapoint. |
-¡Give yourself to me! |
| Great episode. I absolutely LOVED the red-eyed Luffy during the first punch from the sky. It just too bad that Luffy didn't use Gear 4 in that sneak attack instead of Gear 3. Speaking of using, and from there useless - I'm sick of Law whining and bitching all the time. Why didn't he use some of his power to attack Kaido at the same time as Luffy - like steal Kaido's Effing Heart and contribute to Kaido's destruction? Law is an Effing Tit-on-a-Bull. |
| The animation impressed me of this episode even though it was still really slow episode. I'm looking forward to more Luffy vs Kaido action next episode. |
 |
| In some way I'm just glad to be an anime only watcher. For me it didn't seem like Kaido had any problems even when he took all of these hits. I mean Luffy attacked him with everything he got in pure rage mode + Kaido was still drunk, so I have no complains about how the fight went so far. Luffy was out of breath at some point while Kaido was chilln. So I don't get how people can interpret something so wrong. Also if you look at the name for the next episode you know what's about to happen. Animation was absolute crazy. Some people really should check their eyes before complaining about something gorgeous like that. Overall I absolutely love the animation in Wano but that was definitely one of those moments which is just on another level. The first elephant gun looked so good good damn. Everything got so detailed over all these years since I watch One Piece. If you compare this with older episodes you could think you're watching another show. Poor Speed. I didn't expect Kaido to attack her and Tama on his way. After Luffy heard what happened to Tama he got even more furious. The music which played before he attacked Kaido with his Elephant Gatling Gun + the Flashback of Tama went so well together. This got me so hyped. I don't even know how often I said OMG or holy shit during this episode :D 5/5 |

| I'll make Skippy's words my own and just say this episode was fucking phenomenal and definitely one of the best animated episodes to date. The pacing was great too, it didn't drag even nearly as much as I thought it would, most adaptation expansions in this just made the manga's content even better. 5/5 |

Usopp8000 said: Luffy and Kaidou are Finally Fighting! Damn, that First Elephant Gun was sooooo GOOD!!! I swear this fight was really good, but probably next Episode Kaidou will do something about Luffy... Like one-hit-kill stuff like... And damn Uma-mi-chan with Tama-chan has met Kaidou on the way... And... Tama is now MIA... Damn... Gotta watch Next Episode...but I am going Next week to the Jump Festa! So I will have to wait patiently for next week's episode The animation for the recent episode was IMMACULATE I can't wait too :))) lihle808 said: I must say, I have to agree that this was really sensationalized, but I'm not complaining. But, it seems like Manga Luffy and anime Luffy have different strengths :-D Or it could be that this was just an extension of the fight, what really happened there. Mayumi Tanaka must've broken some voice cords after those battle screams, I really applaud her skills. Great animation by the way, and mind blowing action. I thought the animation for this episode was out of this wooooorld GOOD!! Manga luffy and anime luffy have different strengths tho that's a bummer :/ but oh well Kaizoku-Otaku said: People who are somehow complaining about this masterpiece of an episode needs help. This was an ultimate blissful experience as a One Piece fan. Even Goda is crying tears of joy!! :D I 100000% agree this shit was like ecstasy!!! WaterLord said: I'll just say this: what an explosive episode. Fucking fantastic. I haven't felt like this watching a One Piece episode for a while now. Goosebumps all over. And the next episode will be even better. Agreeeeed and ouuuu I'm looking forward to the next episode noooow :)))) Natsu88 said: In some way I'm just glad to be an anime only watcher.

Totallly agree this episode honestly blew my mind I didn't expect it to be that Holy As y'all can see this 10//10 fucking holy ass episode had me very hype an impressed The animation was honestly eyegasm worthy Luffy's rage scene has to be the best scene in Wano so far it even beat Zoro's snapping with that lil butter knife Looking forward to next week's episode all though I think luffy's epicness is about to run out real fast because... This man KAIDO!!! ... Will see O.O Mod Edit: Merged duplicated posts; please use the edit button. |

| I don’t know about the manga, but pacing felt fine. The episode was beyond incredible! Great fight and animation. I couldn’t believe we were getting so much! I’m super stoked for next weeks episode. I only wish Law would join >_< but he’s too collected for that... “we need to stick to the plan” kind of attitude. But I so want to see him fiiiiight, specially with Luffy being so heated! Wano has been beyond incredible (: |
 |
| Also. I refuse to believe Tama is dead. There is just no way. Specially since I thought she would play a bigger role with her devil fruit power... |
|
| Ugh, they used that sloppy style of animation that I really dislike for the start of the fight. I know a lot of people love it since it's similar to how Trigger and Gainax do it. The first half was pretty damn slow, second half was better. Still doesn't seem like it had a lot of effect on Kaidou, without Gear 4 Luffy probably won't do much. |

LMAO what a bum |
| Visuals were great, the elephant gun over Kaido’s face was spectacular, and the animation was very fluid through the fight. I know Luffy is angry, but, hand to hand, there’s no chance against Kaido, even Jack and Hawkins are there. |
 |
| Okay this episode was hella awesome! Screw buildup, Luffy's going straight for Kaido lmaoooo |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| I’m caught up to date with the manga, however this episode was still very awesome to watch. I see a lot of angry manga readers out there saying the fight wasn’t exactly like in the manga, but I think we need to wait till next episode to judge wether or not they handled the fight right. Never the less, the episode was very epic :D |
| Holy shit, when Luffy gets pissed, the animation quality goes off the charts. |
 |
| ok the fight broke out...this just got more and more epic |
 |
Drusix said: Quinof said: You've been watching anime for years, and still can't tell apart good animation from bad? I'm sorry, but someone with eyes as unkeen as yours, should refrain from ever judging animation. https://imgur.com/a/vjtaUNI HAHAHAHAH yeah best animation I have ever seen. At one moment it wasn't even animation it was just few frames per 5 seconds. Are you blind or something? Oh no its retarded |
Drusix said: well they probably had because there are different animators to each episode and most likely diferent directors, but the animation is extremely good in both episodes.Oh come on! Did you watch episode 915? Can you see the difference? It's like 914 was made by someone else. What pissed me off the most was you using a frame of a sakuga moment FROM FUCKING BAHI JD (a guy known for his extremely diferent artstyle and animation so fluid that some people say its rotoscope) to prove that the animation was bad, thats what was the more "retarded" thing i was talking about. Do you really want me to show you one sakuga frame from any ufotable show, where a characters looks thats its not that well drawn? Get some knowlodge about what actually animation is, go see some of the top cuts in sakugabooru, or just watch random ones, so you get to understand what animation styles are, what is the diference between artwork and actual animation, etc. |
| Magnificent episode! The beginning of the fight between Luffy and Kaido is CRAZY! |
| Better than the manga chapter. |
| I must say, I really like what I'm seeing, like visually, it's stunning. Toei can pull this off from time to time |
 |
| Luffy is kicking his ass! |
 |
| Anime apologists come up with the weirdest excuses... What a delusional bunch. Enjoying the anime is one thing, but coming up with defenses like “What more could Toei do waaaaah” is pathetic. This was a slightly above average episode but still a shitty one nonetheless. Nothing to lose sleep about. Well, back to the manga I go~ |
We Were Here, Two Thousand Years Ago |
| Now this is what we've needed for a while. Animation was top notch, felt very fluid. The punch from above felt so satisfying! Tama's not dead, there's no way, same with the crew. |

| Holy shit this was great o.o Though In terms of speed luffy should have the upper hand. But power kaido has the raw sheer power. Anything could happen but at least kaido is a easy target no way to miss that giant as dragon body. |
 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. |
| It's hard not to view this episode in a functional light due to the dissonance of stakes between characters in-universe and our meta knowledge. I could be wrong, but I am assuming that everyone is okay. The gang may have been hurt but no way are they down for good, they will recover and be back in the action soon enough. Because of this, I am not worried but Luffy is and that triggers him to his near-maximum strength, regretful he wasn't enough and angry for his friends sake. We have the perfect setup for motivated Luffy to lose round 1 against Kaido and set the stage for what is to come. It feels similar to Luffy versus Crocodile in that way. It was certainly done well, I can never get enough of Luffy cutting straight to the heart of the matter. "If I kick his ass now, it's all over right?" |
| Great animation for One Piece on the last parts. I didn't really feel the impact of what's going through Luffy's mind. It didn't feel like Sabody even though I think that's what it's suppose to be like. Definitely felt the impact of the gatling technique |
| Feels like losing all five senses & Maybe not able to have thoughts, Enjoi... |
| This ep is completely breathtaking! The animation the OST and the fighting sequence are all so on point! The fated fight between Luffy and Kaido is now there right before our eyes! Hell yeah! Even though I am a manga reader I still consider this an excellent fight, it's longer than what's shown in the manga, but that's because the anime is filling in the actions between the static panels of the manga. |
  |
| I must say, this arc has been pretty crazy with its impact frames. There's been a lot of fluid displays of destructive animation. |
| Now... that was some episode. Holy fuckin' shit. I got chills down the spine. |
 |
| Holy Fuck I was on the edge of my seat the whole time The Animation/Fight/OST everything was EPIC |
| Wow the gear 2nd sound effect sounds good, the animation of it too Oh my god the animation as to how Luffy flown up to the sky and used his gear 3rd on Kaido has he dived down on him ! And more problems accumilating for Luffy, the burden he must shoulder.... This is too much to intake in for myself This is just too intense!! |
