Brook is weird for only having one joint in his arm. :S I forgot what Usopp looked like until they played that flashback. :> And Zoro is beasting as always. :D Scytheboy813 said: Who is FREAKIN EXCITED!?!?!?!? :-D I'm pumped for the episodes to come! |
ninkendo said: Wow, that's going to be brilliant. I'm so excited for the timeskip.oh and news on OP15 it'll be called We Go! and will be made by the same band that made the original We Are! |

| I've never been this excited for anime in my life. |
| Brook... BONE TO BE WILD! Awesome rock star :P Usopp will become a macho'n!! Robin will be meeting freaking DRAGON himself... And I couldn't help but tear up with her part... Her past is one of the most powerful things I've ever seen animated, and the mere sight of it breaks my human soul! And Zoro, just bowed before Mihawk. That is one of the most amazing and unexpected things that has ever happened in One Piece. It's expected of Luffy to do stupid things no matter how great he is, but Zoro asked his sworn enemy to train him for the sake of his captain. This is character-development AT ITS HIGHEST LEVEL! |
 |
| HOLY SHIT SO SO SO EXCITED i already have a boner for training arcs, so this was just the best thing ever to me. especially zoro. i can't believe he's actually training under mihawk - wtf? i'm just so excited for everybody fshaofhiasf love you one piece <3 |
| ah man Brook was so awesome, want to hear him rip off a face melting jam on that guitar. |
 |
| 2 Years is a long time, but I'm sure the other pirates would also get stronger within that span.. |
 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. |
| Ahhhh! What an awesomely crazy episode! I can't believe that Mihawk is actually training Zoro! I was really really looking forward to seeing both Robin's and Zoro's flashbacks. Those moments are just so awesome, however many times I have watched them. Also, so funny to see the old coby, he sure changed a lot in a few months. |
| 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 |
| really exciting to see the crew training hard!! robin's flashback got me all sad again damn and i can't get enough of iva!! |

| I was smiling like an idiot during Zoro's part and I rewatched it after the episode fnished :3 It was so great! I can't recall Zoro smiling like that before! I love his relationship with Mihawk, this "you are my enemy but I think so highly of you" thing! I am so happy Mihawk is gonna be his tutor!!!!!!!! So great :D :D :D |
| 40 DEGREES... BONE TO BE WILD! Also, I knew about the timeskip and all, and just saying, the new opening in two episodes "We Go" is on par with "We Are" for me... possibly my favourite anime opening, they are both so awesome. |
| lol at that monkey mimicking Mihawk xD |
| Honestly, I wanted to hear more of Brook's new single, Bone to be WILD! LOL Great episode, Zoro is just epic! |
If you don't like me, acquire some taste |
| Bone to be Wild indeed. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| So that's what that tatoo means,pretty interesting. |
  |
| damn it i wanted to listen bone to be wild single |
 |
| Loving the look of the redone flashbacks, brings a nice sense of nostalgia. So that's what 3D2Y means! Nice to know, hopefully they all get much much stronger with this time apart |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| I freaked out when Brook took out his guitar that was so great can`t wait to see him after the timeskip *-* |
 |
| They have 2 years to get stronger. I didn't expect Zoro to ask Mihawk to teach him the skills he needs to surpass him. |
 |
| That baboon Mihawk, haha. |

I love these retrospective looks into all the nakama. It's a beautiful way to see what Luffy and the crew means to everyone and to see how much they've grown since the beginning of the series. So, a few characters have masters of sorts and a few have knowledge bases.
As always it was great to see Brook again, and I sincerely hope he has a bigger role when they meet up again! I absolutely find his inclusion in the beginning and closing of Thriller Bark to be amazing. It was so emotional and powerful and it was already near the end of Brook's own story. What he represents with Binks Sake spoke to me and I still sing it to lift my mood. Luffy found him interesting and not scary, and for the first time in 50 years let him spend time with a pirate crew and invited him aboard, then he helped him get his shadow back and fought for him which was the thing that was haunting him and stopping him from fulfilling his promise, and Luffy even brought the news that his last remaining nakama is still out there waiting. Luffy brought the miracle that Brook waited 50 years for!! And that's so perfect, it's clear why he feels so indebted and so happy to be friends with Luffy. He didn't get to see them fight the government for Robin but he was totally moved upon seeing Sanji and Zoro try and die for Luffy's and each others sake, he was, imo, seeing his old crew in them. <3 Robin's retrospective reminded me of how her character arc and flashback was reminiscent to Nami. It broke the formula of getting crew members and we got to see her introduced with mystery in Alabasta, she teamed up with Luffy for Skypiea but never totally fit in, and then in Water 7 she decided it was her time to run away again. Like Ace she was always told she didn't deserve to live, she had the guilt and weight of her people on her shoulders, and everywhere she went brought along destruction. She didn't believe she deserved to live or deserved to have friends, and that was super well explored in the three arcs it took to finally move her into true nakama territory! When Luffy declared, we will literally fight the world for you so realize you deserve and want to live and be a part of this crew! It's so great, she sees how strong Luffy is and loves that nutcase side of him and loves that she has a place where she belongs! Of course she would go meet Dragon to grow stronger under him for the Straw Hats sake. I mean, they all fought with their lives on the line for her with no hesitation! Usopp was respected for his strength by the crew, they enabled him to fight and fought with him. They brought him aboard and gave him a chance to become a brave warrior. And through them he got so strong. Even when he fell off and got in a fight with the crew Zoro, Sanji, and Luffy especially all made him realize his worth and picked him back up, stronger than ever. Of course upon realizing the dangers of the sea he would train with his new friend to make sure Luffy will become the pirate king, in fact, he will become the real sniper king!! A line which made me tear up. Luffy fights with his all for those around him and inspires them to do the same, the sniper king and the strongest swordsman are obviously needed for the pirate kings crew. Aww. :) I always adored Zoro's development, the way he naturally butts heads with Sanji until they slowly become true brothers, the way he bonded with Usopp with small nice gestures and comforting words until finally he forced Usopp to be the man he wants to be and apologize to Luffy. The way he learned to value the crew and Luffy over his own life and ambition, and now pride. It's been slow and hardly ever overt but it has forever been steady and powerful!!! Zoro, in moments of meeting him, saw just how beautiful Luffy is, both are nutcases which are willing to die for their ambitions and from the beginning they practically pledged as the original duo that they would fulfil their dreams. Now, Zoro even prioritizes the crew and Luffy over his own dream and pride and the fact that Zoro would swallow his pride like that was enough to make Mihawk laugh and agree. Maybe Mihawk does see his younger self in him. |
| Showing those scenes where they joined the Straw Hat Crew was a very daunting Try Not to Cry Challenge for me. It's amazing that all these scenes still get me to this day no matter how much I watch it. 2 years... So many things can happen within that timespan and I'm so damn excited to see how they'll turn out. I also have little to no idea about what will be in store for them in the New World and that makes me even more eager to find out! |
 |
| Alright, boys... will meet you after 2 years. XD |
 |
| I'm excited for the timeskip :> |
| This is probably the best setup to a timeskip. The 3D 2Y code that's hidden under so many layers of global skepticism is a promise to get stronger and meet again when they're ready to challenge the New World. One fine touch I particularly appreciated is how Luffy wears bandages all over his arms in order to accentuate the one exposed message (so that even Zoro won't get lost!). |
 |
| 2 years huh that’s a huge gap everyone’s definitely gonna get stronger in 2 years idk are they gonna do a 2 year time skip or are they going to show us a couple episodes that have a summary of the 2 years of their training |
 |
| Ok, i'm hyped ! Can't wait for them to reunite ! |
| 2 Years of Training arc!! Robin skin changed from brown into white. One more episode before the Time Skip? |
