----------------------------------------
Cool anime original stuff with Zoro gambling and oh the irony of undercover Franky eh I mean Franosuke looking for blueprints that were given away years ago, love it.

And boy, I think it will be easy to hate Orochi even more in the anime. His transformation looked honestly pretty cheap, going full CGI would've been better xD

Also I liked the part with Momo at the end.

This episode was mainly a transitional episode for what happens next. But i think this arc is about to get pretty crazy judging by the preview of next episode. Once act 2 really gets under way proper, the events just spiral out of control one after another and next episode is kind of beginning of all that. So anime fans, keep your eyes peeled cause things are about to heat up.

Say what you will about the pacing of the anime but one thing i specifically noticed that is far more prevalent ever since the new directorial change of the series is the "cliff hanger segments" ending of episodes are exactly the same as the manga. That is something i can't say was similar during whole cake island. Oda does an amazing job at providing such great cliff hangers and I am happy to see one piece anime is finally following that format in accordance with the timing and ending of the chapters.

Also PLEASE NO SPOILERS ABOUT THE PREVIEW, PLEASE DON'T DISCLOSE ANYTHING BEYOND THE EPISODE FOR ANIME ONLY FANS, THANK YOU!

Orochi behaved like some corrupt politician of my country, I don't think I can hate him more than I do know.
A few episodes back I was asking myself "Who the f*** is the Oiran and why does she have so much screentime?", I thought I wasn't paying attention and now I got the answer, but I'm still thinking what is she gonna in the near future.

Yeah, I was also wondering about it and what they were gonna do with her. After watching this week's episode….

FYI, I do not read the manga or check stuff up on wikias and such. So if there is info out already regarding this, I don’t know about it.


This has actually been answer completely. So be careful.

Only Zoro would consider samurais and mafia members pointing their katanas at him to be a good-natured 'hospitality.' That said, each member of the straw hats keeps messing with Kyoshiro's men one way or another. I highly doubt Kyoshiro would be thrilled about that. I bet Zoro's companion will be relevant to the plot somehow. Interesting how characters with the oddest character designs in One Piece mostly play a key role in the story.

Is Orochi for real? Does he think everyone is happy in Wano? If anything, he sure is confident making powerful demands from Cypher Pol. Honestly, Vegapunk? The most brilliant scientist ever? I understand though. As he said, he does have the protection of Kaido. What a conniving snake.

Why do I have a strong feeling as to the identity of Monosuke's little sister? The hair color does seem to match somehow.

What the hell sort of power does Orochi have that he can act like that to three CyberPol members? They ought to be able to easily assassinate him regardless of Kaido. And why does Kaido bother to team up with Orochi? There appears to be a huge amount of stuff we don't know about the situation...

A good ep. Firstly, I thought Zoro was using future haki to determine what the outcome would be (but then again I remembered he doesn't have that kind of ability). Looks like he purely has the luck on his side. Also, he has he amazing deduction skills. The owner did a big mistake by messing with him. Hahahah!


Poor Franky! Flying all around the town trying to get the hand on the blueprints the old-timers pawned away. Just how many guys did he visit? I did a count and got to six persons. Poor man! And that girl was cute,
I hope we get to see something good of her on rule34 (though I highly doubt it)!

Orochi's devil fruit looks really furious
Looks like even the Cipher Pol 0 fears him (more accurate fears Kaido) and won't take drastic moves.

I got to say the ep. was better than the usual. Zoro's scene was the best and really gave the ep. a high quality. Anyways,

The gambling of Zoro at the beginnging was epic. These guys really thought they could fool him lol. The guy who's with Zoro is kinda weird but also funny. Poor Shutenmaru, now everyone will think he stole the food and the weapons. Sneaky Kinemon.

Oh man I felt sorry for Franky. After working so much he just hears that the guy he worked for the whole time doesn't even have the blueprints.

Damn Orochi has some big balls. The disrespect towards CP-0 was unreal. But never ever would the governmount give him Vegapunk. I hope we will see his dragon form at some point. Looked kinda crazy. I personally like his voice a lot. Am I wrong or is it the same voice as Shukaku from Naruto?

After the scene with Momo I finally realised who Komurasaki really is. That explains a lot. Should be interesting to see when they want to reveal it.

Zoro’s presence is always entertaing, now, who’s this guy, probably is gonna be related to the whole story. Kin’emon trying to provoke Shutenmaru. Well, the re-introduction of Vegapunk is always something interesting to hear, but CP-0 involved, also the one asking for him is Orochi, some experiments plans are around.

Zoro's bit was awesome, you don't screw over one of the strongest swordsman.
Also ... I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that Komurasaki is Hiyori right ... why else would Momonosuke talk about his sister and her being 26 right after ...?

Why oh why did they have to give Orochi a scary voice?!? If only they listened to Tekking101 they would have been on the right path!
Still, Franky's comedic search for the blueprints was done perfectly and I Yoshi (is that the dude with Zoro's name) is great!

When Wano lands, it does so with style. When I talk about how comfortable the pacing can be, I mean episodes like this. Having simple scenes like Franky playing a good boy to his carpenter boss before losing his mind realizing it's been for nothing and then proceeding to rampage through town investigating, reminding me of his role in Dressrosa. Or Zoro! Having him beat a dirty gambling house, aware of what's going on, and in the process make an eccentric, homoerotic follower to rival the classic Johnny and Yosaku. I don't even have much to say about these scenes, they aren't the most intricate, but they put a smile on my face and feel real pleasant. It's a good way to celebrate the Straw Hats solo adventures, and spend time in the beautiful and harsh Wano.

Put some respect on Momo's name!!! My man is training and is just as resolved as Kin'emon not to meet his loved ones until they are done. I wonder why the sister wasn't taken into the future, I know traditionally wives are supposed to die with their Samurai husbands or something like that, maybe I'm remembering that wrong, but I can't imagine a daughter traditionally should die with their father? I'm imagining that it was some part of a plan and that she's been a major proponent to fighting the cause in these years.

Franuske sure is in big trouble kinda funny though, while Zoro just made this episode
really good for me, and the scene from Komurasaki shifting directly to Momo made it
clear as day that the 26 years old Oiran is Hiyori after 20 years.

This ep is mainly an update ep showing the current task and whereabouts of the various characters across Wano.

Ay yo, that's dirty! I completely forgot about how Ashura is brought over to fight once more. I can't help but laugh when Carrot and the other minks framed The Atayama Bridge Thieves for stealing the food and weapons! Kinemon you genius bastard.

A filler scene that I like; Zoro gambling. It's never really explained whether Zoro is just extremely skilled in gambling or if he's using his kenbushoku haki whilst gambling. In either case, there's absolutely no fucking way these thugs could even pull a cheap stunt like they did and get away with it without Zoro knowing about it.

Now it's always nice to see Momo train himself. He has a lot of catching up to do if he ever wants to be powerful enough to keep his loved one safe. Especially his sister which you know who it is.

Holy smokes, did Zoro just slash those guys with conqueror's haki? I've been thinking of this since he made that sumo guy back down, but it would be very fitting for Zoro to have conqueror's haki since his ambition to become a master swordsman means overcoming all others.

I think the segue from Komurasaki to Momo basically spells it out. Ironically enough it was a filler arc in early OP that put that possibility into my head immediately.

I was going to call it a day here, but I can't ignore the title of the next episode. Here. We. Go.
