THE ONE PIECE
...... IS REAL!


Officially my favorite episode in all of One Piece. Only sucky thing was how there were no swords in Whitebeard's body, but all is forgiven just because this episode rocked on so many levels.

Wasn't expecting that part to be "very well done" - seeing 10 people unload all of their bullets with blood splattering on Whitebeard's face almost makes up for the censoring of half of Whitebeard's head blown off. I'd rather it have been the other way around since it would've made his death even more epic (but of course that'd definitely be pushing it). Also glad it ended with the Whitebeard wound numbers and...

The declaration of "One Piece exists!" made an awesome impact. I loved the last words of both Ace and WB's; Ace's last words and death left that tearful feeling, and the battle scars of WB's (and the clear back) left a "damn, what a legend" impression.

Great episode, 5/5.

Episodes this epic always fill me with infinite pity for the people who don't like this show due to length and animation quality or actually believe that naruto or bleach is better...

5/5! (for like the upteempth week in a row)

Could have been just a little better if they censored less of Whitebeard's battle wounds : )

Yeah, the animation is surprisingly well done in this episode. The clouds that passed by when Whitebeard was looking up at that one Marineford tower and the water behind him as he paraded down with his nakama. <3

And the last words were truly epic..

That was pretty awesome. Although, since I read the manga last week from there to the current chapter, I'm seriously depressed at how far back it is...

Great episode. Although, I'm disappointed with how weak they keep making Whitebeard look in the anime, I understand they need to filler out scenes to keep distance with the manga, but was it really necessary to have Teach block several of Whitebeard's attacks and then use him as a punching bag? The difference between Teach and Whitebeard was supposed to be enormous.

The scene where all the Blackbeard Pirates are attacking Whitebeard was really well done though, well done Toei. :)

My favorite part of the episode was the narrator listing the number of battle wounds and how he never got a scar on his back.
Blackbeard is such a coward. I wonder how the heck he was born with the 'D' initial and be so pathetic. The only reason he is still alive is because of luck and that Whitebeard wasn't in full power. If he was, Blackbeard wouldn't have stood a chance.
I feel bad for the Whitebeard crew. They really loved their 'Pops.'

The people at Toei made sure to show Akainu burn through his guts with a blast of lava, twice (I think. I was really having trouble keeping track of half the blows Whitebeard took during the fight throughout all the episodes) and Whitebeard still knocked him down. How was that making Whitebeard look weak.

Cause in the ep Blackbeard blocked a bunch of his attacks and got in a few solid hits, but in the manga it pretty much went like "haha you can't use your powers anymo (gets slashed) ahhhhhh!!"

considering blackbeards powers, i'd say it isn't impossible to do, in the end he still got slashed and the difference shown (imo)

anyways great episode, loved whitebeards declaration that One Piece is real, and the last bit when it showed his back without any wounds.

I've always thought that Blackbeard was among the more "realistic" pirates in One Piece. He's a stupid backstabber with a good mood who knows what he wants and, as we've seen, how to get it. It wasn't really luck that saved him from Whitebeard in my opinion.

Whitebeard was so cool in the episode. And even the flashbacks were interesting! The last line was best in my opinion. A man who never ran away.

currently there's no anime airing that can be compared to One Piece v__v

I was kind of annoyed at the slow pace during a chunk of the war (Ace's death was too much dragging imo), but I loved this episode. As said before, ONE PIECE IS REAL.

By the way, why did Whitebeard suddenly look like he was going Gear Second, with pink skin and smoke coming from his body? When he looked like he couldn't move, and then walked towards Blackbeard, I don't get it. He couldn't have used Gear Second since it would explode his organs, and it looked like it was only due to rage and didn't actually do something, but lol what?

Epic episode is epic. Theese last few episodes were beyond amazing.

Btw I thought this is gonna cover at least 2 chapters from the manga because there was no recap and this is the longest episode Ive ever seen of One Piece. But they managed to use one chapter again with some extented fighting scenes. Im so glad fillers are so rare in One Piece.

But I dont like that they started censoring stuff in the anime. I dont ever remember that they used censoring till now. Whitebeard with his face blown off instead of his mustache and there were Swords in his body at the end..

Awesome episode!! Although I would have wished they wouldn't have censored (Whitebeard's head) they've animated it really well.

I can't say it's the best episode - the reason for this is that One Piece has a lot of best ones for me!! But it's definitely one of my favorites. This is really an epic arc, makes me think I'm really glad I've started watching OP many years ago. Can't wait for the next one.

By the way, thanks for the preview. Why don't they actually show them anymore (I know it's been a while like this but I still wonder)?

Overall, this episode was a top 10 favorite for me. How Whitebeard withstand all those slashes and bullets from Blackbeard and his crew was outstanding. A bit different from the manga but the impact of it was great. Now to finish the arc and more on to Sabo.

Oda always manages to create such complete badass characters. Edward "Whitebeard" Newgate is no different.

I love the fact that the man closest to One Piece manages to cause an enormous uproar with his last words. Also pay close attention to Sengoku's reaction. This is going to come back as a HUGE plot point later on in the series
