| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- lawl I completely forgot Dragon was a part of this flashback. Preview: http://www.fujitv.co.jp/GPplayer/e/GPplayerJMe.html?anime/onepiece/110612onepiece&type=flv |
| The highlight of this ep was seeing Dragon since he's been rarely seen in the OP series. Seeing Ace's haki animated was good. What I don't get is why didn't the Captain get knocked out. He doesn't seem to be a person that could withstand a person's haki and he doesn't even know about it to boot. This arc is winding down to a close. Can't wait for the next one though I doubt they'll continue going by the manga since the opening kinda hinted that we may get filler eps about what's happening with the rest of the crew. |

| Draggggon :0 |

Scytheboy813 said: OMG!!! please be alive!!!...probably will be lol fail suspense is fail. dunno how the director expects us to believe that Ace's life would ever be in danger at this point in time. :D Episode's a bit slow now, hopefully next episode makes up for it. |
 |
| Wow was not expecting dragon to be there. :o |
 |
| Good episode. I expected to see Dragon within the fire after the haki was used since it didn't seem that Luffy used it and I'm uncertain if Ace has that type of power since I can't remember ever seeing him use it in the past. Can't wait till next week. |
 |
| good episode. cant wait till next week but they have been pulling this arc to long i wanna see whats going to happen after. but non the less its still great. |
 |
| Judging by the preview it looks like two more episodes will finish it. I feel bad for ace and luffy, but sabo's easily got it the worst, he actually has to live with that now. You know, until... |
| Dear Math, I'm not a therapist. Solve your own problems. Oh, and Algebra? Stop asking us to find your ex, she's NEVER coming back. |
| I didn't expect that Dragon will appear at that place. And Poor Sabo... I can't wait for the next episode~ |
    |
| Wow! o.O Doragon showed up! |
| lol never understand why ppl always going nuts when dragon shows up^^ at this point he is proably the most overhyped character in the entire story. |

| I'm soooooooooo glad I am not from a rich family ...yup, rich ppl angers me, but rich AND spoiled ppl pisses me off. |
 |
| so did ace or dragon used the haki ?lol |

Uploader53 said: I forgot all about Dragon. I wonder why he came to Goa Kingdom in the first place. This arc just got even more interesting. |
cardin said: lol fail suspense is fail. dunno how the director expects us to believe that Ace's life would ever be in danger at this point in time. :D I didn't find the suspense "fail." It's definitely not about whether Ace's life (or Luffy's life for that matter) is in danger. I want to know what happens next.. and considering that I can't wait for next week's episode I'd say they did a good job. Great episode. |
bskbob said: lol never understand why ppl always going nuts when dragon shows up^^ at this point he is proably the most overhyped character in the entire story. lol! have you even been watching OP so far? is that your first ep? or do you just not get the concept of a shounen? coincidentally, dragon is luffy's father. and omfg.... luffy is the protagonist. and oh, almost nothing is known about dragon. so, why do you think there is a hype around this mysterious creature?! well, well, well. I think, I'm going to pray for humanity |
| I'm actually amazed that Bluejam was stupid enough to believe that deal with the King. I mean this is the same nobility willing to massacre everyone in the Gray Terminal and he believed any deal with the King would be honored? The whole point is to destroy everything they perceive as ugly which includes the local pirates. That group might be similarly evil, but they wouldn't fit into the nobility. Besides the nobility are so full of themselves they'd never accept pirates being given titles. What's funny is that even if Bluejam survives the whole thing can just be pinned on him. Interesting to see Dragon around though. When hearing what Sabo has to say it's somewhat easy to see how he could be driven to revolution. Monsters like that royal family are so corrupt and able to ruin so many lives, something had to be done. Still I'm looking forward to getting to the end of this arc. Been way too long since we saw the crew. |
| I forgot Dragon was born in Goa kingdom. Does that mean he was born a noble? Seeing Ace's first time haki was awesome too. |
 |
smokes said: so 2 more episodes.. then the crew adventures :D can't wait to see that animated There will be at least 3-5 episodes after the childhood, and maybe they can stretch them even more actually, so the crew is still far away... :) |
| But if the arrow is straight And the point is slick It can pierce through dust No matter how thick... |
| Why are most of the nobles all over One Piece universe so goddamn fugly? They're already despicable by actions and thoughts alone, their appearance have to be detestable too! LOL |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
FlareKnight said: I'm actually amazed that Bluejam was stupid enough to believe that deal with the King. Ugh, tell me about it. When he was stalling in disbelief, going "hey, open the door", I was this close to palming my face. Good episode. Glad it came out the same day I caught up to episode 500. Dragon is priceless. Makes sense why Garp would raise Luffy there of all places, but I can't say I'm too approving of how he chose to raise Luffy. The dialog with Sabo was really powerful. Sabo's a really smart kid, and I loved the insight about why Dragon became a Revolutionary (not Sabo specifically, but the overall state of his country). Can't really blame him. Gosh, Windmill village is in such a contrast to almost everywhere else in the kingdom x_X Luffy and Ace are adorable. It's sweet the kid who wanted to kill Luffy would go as far as to use his Haki to save him <3 |

| I want to see all the nobles to be defeated by Luffy, and asking for forgiveness! |
| So much hype for Dragon. Anyway, the people that was torn between who used the Haki Dragon or Ace, are you fucking serious? -_- Dragon is on the OTHER side of the door, also rewatch Marineford, when Luffy uses "Haoushoku Haki", Ace said "you too?" Just like how mentioned Sabo in Marineford arc, all to clear it up. :) Not to mention how obviously, they made it that Ace is the one who used it. Though, why didn't he train haki, he was Shirohige's 2nd division commander, he should have learned how to use Haki from the other commanders. I want to know if Dragon posses an Akuma no Mi power or not. 2 more episodes and Luffy's past is done. :D |

tofei said: Why are most of the nobles all over One Piece universe so goddamn fugly? They're already despicable by actions and thoughts alone, their appearance have to be detestable too! LOL It's made like to reflect their inner world. Is like when you meet a really awful person. Even if his/her appearance looks relatively good, after knowing the person even it's outside appearance starts to seem ugly and distorted. Obviously in a manga there is no time for such a thing for secondary characters so he gives them the appearance they would have had if you knew them and knew well what disgusting creature they really are. |

| Why many ppl say Ace used that haki, it was obvious that some other person did that ~ might be Dragon ^^" |
angelcross37 said: Why many ppl say Ace used that haki, it was obvious that some other person did that ~ might be Dragon ^^" Dragon wasn't quite in the area at that time. And Ace is Roger's son. There's no reason why he wouldn't have the Haki. |
| Sigh, when it happened Bluejam looked at Ace and said, "what did you do?" there's nothing which hints that it was Dragons doing. When Dragon saved Luffy in Loguetown I'm surprised Smokes didn't draw the conclusion their related somehow (friendship,family,etc) |
AnimePoop said: When Dragon saved Luffy in Loguetown I'm surprised Smokes didn't draw the conclusion their related somehow (friendship,family,etc) Maybe he did, but found no evidence. I'm sure the Marines must've investigated Dragon's background thoroughly, but if there was no record of Dragon having family ties, it'd be a dead-end lead-wise. At least, such records weren't accessible to Smoker and Tashigi. At the very least Sengoku knew but that might've just been due to his relation with Garp. |
| Omg Ace also has the kings Haki? Means that; Shanks, Whitebeard, Boa Hancock,Rayleigh, Old dude from the Gray Terminal, Ace, Monkey D. Dragon and Luffy all have that ability? |
| I'm not sure if I got it correctly.. but did Dragon say he is from Goa Kingdom and a Noble? The thought just made my jaw drop.. which would mean Luffy can be a noble or even a King.. haha Hopefully Sabo will survive are this crisis.. and not sure which of the two; Luffy or Ace that released the Haki.. One great episode with many twist being revealed! haha |

One great episode with many twist being revealed! haha No, all that Dragon implied is that he was also born in Goa Kingdom. That doesn't mean he is part of anything. Animefanx3 said: Omg Ace also has the kings Haki? Means that; Shanks, Whitebeard, Boa Hancock,Rayleigh, Old dude from the Gray Terminal, Ace, Monkey D. Dragon and Luffy all have that ability? There's a difference between Haki and its variants. All those you mentioned can use Haki, but the "King's Haki" that Luffy is supposedly capable of using was only implied to be an ability of Roger. Ace now shows he could have had it as well (he is Roger's son after all).

| seeing haki happen always makes me ridiculously happy, it's just one of those powers |
| surprised to see luffys dad |
 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. |
| OHMYGOD! Just got goosebumps when Ace used the King's Haki! I think Ace had to die for Luffy to become the Pirate King, Luffy just doesn't compare to Ace's strength. And Dragon?! DRAGON SHOWED UP?! Also, I am not looking forward to seeing that damn booger faced Celestial Dragon. |
| Pirates are evil? The Marines are righteous? These terms have always changed throughout the course of history! Kids who have never seen peace and kids who have never seen war have different values! Those who stand at the top determine what's wrong and what's right! This very place is neutral ground! Justice will prevail, you say? But of course it will! Whoever wins this war becomes justice! - Doflamingo |
| why didn't the captain get affected? i doubt he's THAT strong but it's still impressive to see both dragon and ace's haki at a young age. |

| "The weak get washed away by the tides of fate...The strong drink it up."-Godot |
| Was great to see Ace's haki. I think it would be safe to assume that being Gol D Roger's son he has also the king's haki. As for the captain who didn't faint we have to keep in mind that Ace is 10 at the time. He is just a kid. Luffy's haki appeared at 17... Also the captain might be an idiot but maybe he is strong...??? A strong idiot XD Anyway, I was suprised to see Dragon. Will he take Sabo with him? I mean so far Sabo is revolutionary material :P |
| I SURE HOPE ACE DIDN'T DIE (Just kidding, I'm not THAT stupid, please don't scold me) |
| Cool episode, Dragon makes an appearance! |
If you don't like me, acquire some taste |
