| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Orochi seems to enjoy himself too much. Two guys are after Sanji for causing trouble. Big Mom is on her way and about to enter Wano soon. Here we go! |
| Let me be the first to say. Law, Hawkins, X drake and Kid all in the same arc?? and now kaido and big mom, two emperors. Clearly this arc is very important to oda if all the key players from the worst generation and yonko are gathering. We have never had this many alltogether in one arc. and now things are finally starting to get interesting. Next episode will be a very key fight though i won't spoil it and thank god the preview did not spoil it either. I only hope that the anime actually fleshes out things a bit more in the coming few episodes, cause at this point is when oda started racing through the chapters at break neck speed. These action moments needs to be extended to fully enjoy the impact of them. |

| The preview for next episode....things are about to go down here in Wano! |
| I felt bad for the people of the town where Zoro was, I wonder if the Robin Hood they have will be relevant soon or not. Orochi is having a great time, I hope it all ends soon for that son of a bitch. More faces are looking for the strawhats, and then you have Big Mom who wants Luffy... This is getting hot. |
| 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!  |
| Pretty great 4/5 episode |
| Hmm, long time since I have seen an OP ep. where I have gotten the nostalgic feeling of classic One Piece. This one was right on spot with that village that were laughing instead of crying. In the anime I guess you can feel with their reasoning. But seriously if I had seen this village and been in Zoro's position I would have thought that that village is cursed and suffer from mental condition. To laugh all the time. No wonder he is confused and doesn't laugh like them. Then again, this is Zoro. What is needed is this 09:41. Gives nostalgia and makes you remember this, right Anyways, Orochi looks a lot more sexy and good than what I thought . ^^ I would think he would look like a troll. Something more ugly than Kaido, but this is over the standard line. Come on, even Chiffon's dad looks worse than Orochi. Oda have been merciful with his face. Komurasaki is sexy when blushing Can't wait to see her on rule**. Looks like their plan of infiltration is in motion. Funny to see skull joke even in the new world. Been so less of these jokes. I am glad Oda-san hasn't forgotten about them. But I agree with Brook, it's not funny to see him tell them to himself. Looks like he have found the 3rd road poneglyph. Cool! And Shanks ripping of Kids arm? Wut? Have I been missing something? I thought they were attacked right away when they tried to come with a plan to attack Shanks. Maybe that was after the arm-rip! The parallel is very funny, LOL! That can actually become a meme. Kid. now you a step closer to look like me. Noooo, Big Mom and weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeddding kekiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii is back! Geez, may lord have mercy on our brains. -.- Knowing Toei, Mama-mama will be heard at least 1000 times before the arc is over. ^^ Another weird detail I noticed (and yes this is before preview) is that Katakuri is not in the front. Either he isn't on the boat (which is most probably) or behind her (which doesn't make sense even with defeat). Either way, I have a feeling he hasn't joined the battle because he has some pride and common sense unlike the rest of the maniac crew. ^^ Anyways, all in all good ep. For first time in long I felt the village scene wasn't dragged and was spot on. Good ep.! |

| Lol Big Mom has arrived in Wano, RIP Luffy I guess. |
 |
| Damn all these important figures being/coming to Wano, there is going to be some crazy fights seeing not only characters from the worst generation being there (Kid, Luffy, Zoro, Drake, Law, Hawkins and probably also Apoo and Killer) but also two of the Yonko with their pirate crew |
 |
| Big Mom is coming! |
 |
| Ebisu town part was sad. Now that big mom's here, shit's bout to go down. |
 |
| Awesome Episode 9/10 |
 |
| Looks like Big Mom has brought most of her strongest troops with her. I wonder if Kaido has enough to match them, particularly since he has key fighters off chasing the Straw Hats? |
Fedezis1 said: Where is Katakuri? Probably Hospital or did he die? |
 |
| Well Zoro seemed as confused as me when all the people were laughing about everything. Of course you can ask yourself why should you cry if you don't have anything to eat or if you're poor but I think it's a normal human reaction be sad in these kind of situations. Probs to those people who can still laugh and being in a good mood. It's mindblowing how happy they are just about clean water. But with all the factories around them who pollute everything it's no wonder. Orochi behaves exactly like I thought he would. But he's as weak against Komurasaki as every other man. Seems also like some of the headliners are after Sanji. Page 1, X Drake and even Hawkins. Interesting to hear how Kid lost his arm. I wonder if it was in a direct fight with Shanks or just with someone of Shanks crew. Did Brook really found the Porneglyph? That would be insane. And now also Big Mom almost arrived in Wano. This is beyond insane. I can't even imagine how this will look like and what is about to happen. I guess Katakuri and Cracker are still not fit enough not that the rest of the Big Mom pirates are weak at all. |

| Holy shit, Big Mom really came! And of course they showed it in the last few seconds of the episode. Typical of this show. |

x-Nezumi-x said: I felt a surge of pity for the townfolks that Zoro mingled with and visited. In a way, they're very strong. Being able to live through extreme harsh poverty and still laugh and stay optimistic is no easy feat. Even Zoro cracked a half-smile at the atmosphere they were emitting. Orochi is cherry-picking his expensive-looking food while his people are out there starving and dehydrating. I am curious as to how he managed to rise in power and overthrow Oden. So the hierarchy amongst The Beast Pirates is further explained upon in this episode. We have Kaido at the top, of course. His 3 strongest generals. The strongest 6 headlines. Then the remaining headliners. Finally are the irrelevant weak fodders at the bottom. Luffy and Kidd are so much alike in more ways than one. They're the only two thick-headed supernovas who consciously and wholeheartedly never enslaved themselves under an emperor's rule. The only difference between them is that Kidd actively kills his opponents, and has a more aggressive attitude and stance than Luffy. Brook found another Poneglyph. I wonder if he will be one of the MVP's again and steal the Poneglyph. Nonetheless, it seems like the plan is now in motion. I wonder how things will go wrong this time around. Not only Big Mom is here, but some of her highly notable family members are also on board. I don't see Katakuri anywhere. I guess he is still recovering. Since he is the strongest fighter amongst Big Mom's crew, the safety of the islands is his responsibility. Regardless, I am looking forward to seeing how things will turn out now that Big Mom is in the equation. Is there a possibility that it will turn out to be a three-way battle? Kaido vs Big Mom vs Luffy? Unfortunately, we'll have to wait for three weeks for the next episode. Maybe this is for the best as to give the manga more headway. Regarding Katakuri i have a theory about that. I believe he will show up at the same time Jimbei does and i believe they are both working together. In other-words the big mom pirates had some what of a divide between the families and the members pirates. Some who have obviously have different ideals bout the current circumstances, well others are more loyal followers and i believe we will see which ones stand with luffy and Jimbei and the Germa 66 and fishman pirates will be amongst them. It will be a massive unexpected raid. |

| Next episode should be good, did I just see Kaido's number one attacking Big Mom in the preview? Let's see what he's capable of. Big Mom is not only missing her number three, but also Katakuri, her number one, though. Seems like a bad time for Big Mom to fight someone on their turf. |
| I find it funny how there is this inherent love/hate relationship with Big mom. On CR almost everyone complains about her, disrespecting her, calling her the worst character and most annoying well people on MAL love her as a character. Personally for me i thing Big mom is one of my favorite characters. Her family members and herself even bear a more imposing fear then kaido and his subordinates in my opinion. Don't disrespect BIG MOM. She could very well end up taking the throne, over overthrowing kaido him self as one of the MVP villains of the series. Her capabilities with the kind of powers she possesses are just limitless and I believe oda will showcase that in its full glory in the future of the wano arc. Think of WCI as just a mere tease compared to what is coming. |
| |
| Ebisu town....oh you guys have no idea... |
 |
| Orochi is a disgusting guy. The presence of Hawkins and Drake, I still wonder what their real intentions with Kaido are, seeming to be on his side. So, Kid had a fight with Shanks, epic. Brook found something like a poneglyph. Big Mom is about to have her great encounter with Kaido, I can’t wait for this, I like the tension between these two. These episodes are optimizing their time better, I mean, a bunch of things are happening through each one, and I enjoy that. |
 |
| There's definitely something up with those smiling people in the village. Poneglyph! - Been a while since we've had any progress towards that, Robin is in the right place ^^ Big Mom about to enter the country ... This is going to be one hell of a shitshow O_O |
 |
| ALL hell is gonna break loose with big mom. And she brought the whole damn crew of the greatest tier jeezus. Man I wish I was partying it up with Orochi lolz |
 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. |
| The first half of this episode was very delicate. To depict Zoro away from the crew, running into a surreal village where the civilians laugh away their starvation and poverty, was not what I expected. As they push up his cheeks to make his stoic nature join in on the fun, and a little girl with missing teeth offers Zoro one of their only glasses of water simply because Tonoyasu brought him along, what we did was familiarize Zoro with the people he is fighting for. Their suffering and their kindness. They did get him to smile after all, he couldn't refuse such a kind gesture! This scene echoed once again my favorite part of Wano and made me tear up, as well as give Zoro a potential and underspoken motivation. To splice those who laugh away their horrendous living conditions with Orochi who laughs away his surplus of food, literally discarding it because it doesn't appeal to him, was a strong way to build him up as well. While all of this is very extreme, the juxtaposition of the manner both of these parties laugh made a statement, making us attached to Ebisu, and despising the waste of Orochi. I do have to ask the obvious, if Toko is from Ebisu, or if the idea of laughing away you're suffering is only coincidentally related. The cut to Sanji chopping and Law sneaking up behind him is the kind of aesthetic directing I love. Totally pleasant in sound, pacing, and framing. I guess it makes sense that Big Mom would be on her way with her entire family, we established so many characters during Whole Cake, no use letting them go to waste! And we can finally get to know Drake, a mysterious ex-marine if I recall, and one with a shared backstory with Law. |
| Oh wow big hype for the coming together between these two pirate giants!! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| The last mins of this episode gave me goosebumps. Shit is about to hit the fan. I'm definitely looking forward for the two Yonkou to clash, then Luffy and Kid taking advantage to bring em both down while they are weakened. |
| Everyone is coming together, slowly but sure;y, Zoro is about to enter the Flower Capital, Robin is invited into the banquet and Brook is just chilling down the well. And well well well, here comes Brook yet again discovering another Poneglyh in addition to the 3 he found in Big Mom's castle. The 3 GOAT Infiltrators; Nami, Robin and Brook are making their moves. |
  |
| I think I might have an idea why they keep laughing and the same for Otoko kid. Big Mom is here as well. |
 |
| The laughing villager's were so wholesome and sad at the same time :( Big Mom would fight Kaido ig |
| I like how the Wano Kuni arc revolves around food as a major thing, while famine has being around the country, makes you really want to appreciate food more Zoro too has experienced starvation before he met Luffy, so he knows what the situation is like, he drank the whole water without any waste. Ebisu staying optimistic while suffering from hard times, respect ! Orochi is so spoiled and inconsiderate, all the hard work to harvest and making the food gone to waste... BROOK YET AGAIN STRIKES AGAIN, he found another poneglyph! I can see why Oda didn't want Luffy to take down Big Mom from the whole cake island arc, it's so she can be used later to encounter Kaido. This is a lot to intake it! The crazy amount of characters in this arc, but Katakuri isn't on board on the ship D: |
| 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 |
| Ma Ma Ma-Ma! Shit is officially about to get real. Not gonna lie, I was lowkey missing Linlin. There is a strange charm to the happy go lucky terror that follows her. Learning that Shanks brutally BTFO'd Kid was probably the biggest shocker of this episode. Obviously he's strong, but when you only see his good sides it's easy to take for granted that he's in the same league as the absolute terrors of Kaido & Big Mom. Mess with him and be grateful you walk away with a missing limb. |
 |
| why I had to see that old hag and the failure of a crew again shortly !!! except from Katakuri all of them would be spitted on their graves |
