| Robin was cool. Cheap animation when they fought the pirates, hopefully all the money will go to the next episode. Franky and Den having a conversation about Tom's life got me a bit teary eyed, because i remembered Franky's past again. God i have to rewatch those episodes again. Vander Decken is going for Shirahoshi while Hordy takes over the palace. A bit slow episode, but i hope the next one will make up for it. Ooh i wonder if Jimbei and Luffy will gang up on Vander Decken! |
| Ooooo Luffy better watch out. Decken is racing towards him. |
| the whole time i was just feeling sorry for the shark. my gag reflexes were acting up just thinking about deep throating + carrying somebody nearly as large as you. robin's ability looks crazy formidable now! this is the first time i've had to wait for an ep. :( it sucks. |
| intense cliffhanger (damn bgm is awesome) can't wait for SH to destroy the palace :D |

| I gotta ask: how are all the non-manga fans enjoying it so far? |
| 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. |
| The episode was a bit slow, but I'm enjoying it so far. I can't wait for the fights =) |

Yeah, I'll be honest though, I might end up skipping the flashback. Personally, I just don't feel like going through it again, as it's just exposition. |

flame_master_14 said: I gotta ask: how are all the non-manga fans enjoying it so far? i don't mind it.. its harder than it seems to not run into a few spoilers here and there which is annoying. im gonna be upset if hordy and decken even get a hit on luffy and zoro tbh. these guys are weaklings.. like arlong |
|
flame_master_14 said: I gotta ask: how are all the non-manga fans enjoying it so far? Quite a bit. Story's interesting, pace is quick, liking the episodes even when not too much happens like this one. I can't wait to see the Straw Hats to go up against some enemies who will give them a little trouble. |
| Robin + Multiple hands multiplication = OWNAGE! LOL xD EPIC EPISODE! CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE! |
| uhh... |
| Very good episode, Robin is so funny +_+ And obviously, very impatient to see -> Zoro vs Hody ! ! ! |
| 535 episodes in four weeks and I've finally caught up. It's nice to see that Robin is useful again. Zoro has spent the last two years training with Mihawk, he should have no problem with Hody. |
| Definitely looking forward to Zoro vs Hody (Hordy? *shrug*) <3 Zoro. :3 Poor Megalo. :( Whoever said their gag reflex was working while watching that... I agree. Poor guy. Also... she'd have to be curled up in his stomach, right? ... I sure hope he doesn't have strong stomach acid. >>; Can't wait for everyone who's going there to meet up in the sea forest. :) |
 |
| Ah, great to see Robin again. This was a pretty good episode, seemed a bit faster paced than the last couple for some reason. Also, is it just me, or did everything look a lot more...colorful? There were a few weak points in the animation, but the vibrant colors this episode really stood out for me. I do have to say, the little added bits of filler from one scene to the next actually really work, I like it. Weaves things together a lot more smoothly. |
| wow can't wait for Zoro vs Hody and wonder what will happen when Luffy meets Jimbei! |
| Looks like Vander will catch up to Luffy next episode, I presume. |
 |
| I'm still having a hard time adapting to the new character designs specifically with Franky, Robin, Zoro, and Brook. I really loved the darkness of Brook before, but now, he's just goofy (not that it's bad). I guess I feel he had more substance before...more layers to his character than just comedy. As for Zoro, the only issue I have is the loss of his eye...a simple scar across the eye would have been fine like the Dark Night Rayleigh's. I mean...eyes are important for a swordsman. I can get use to it over time though. I don't like the fact the Robin got white and that hair style is just terrible. At least Nami looks similar to her younger version while Robin seems to have had plastic surgery. Franky doesn't look like a cyborg anymore...more like a typical robot. His signature poss doesn't have the same effect any longer...it's more awkward whereas before it was funny. Lastly, I'm fine with Chopper....but in episode 533 when he went into his new kung-fu point he looked stupid. As soon as I saw him, I thought this is ripping off Kung-fu Panda.....they made him into a fat Chopper. I'm fine with him having the ability, but the character design is stupid. I don't know. I love One Piece but some the character design choices that have been made are not up to par I feel. |
 |
| The filler in this episode fleshed things out nicely. That's why One Piece will always be superior to Naruto and Bleach. |
 |
| The animation in this episode during the pirate fight was QUALITY. I'm sure next one will be better |
 |
| The action is getting fast-paced! Hoping to see Luffy and Zoro fight! :D |
   |
| TO much obsession.. |
 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. |
| Yipee!!!! Zoro vs Hody!!! And underwater too!!!! Zoroooo <3 Can't wait for the rest of the crew to meet Jimbei!!! |
| Next up |
  |
| okay time to see some ass kicking so excited *_* |
 |
| That Decken guy needs a reality check and soon |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Decken guy really has a talent to stalk people |
 |
| I want to see Vander Decken get his ass kicked already, I can't stand the guy. |
 |
| First to get it out of the way, I was thinking more about how cool it was that Hachi confronted Hordy. He went against the ideals he once helped and is fighting, in a way, for Luffy's sake. He was too ashamed to face Luffy with Arlong jr around because he's changed his views and that's not okay anymore, humans can be awesome and worth fighting for. Like I suggested before he was never a true radical and he had a good relationship with Rayleigh, but Luffy's support has moved him even further. He fought for Luffy as well as he could despite being injured even if it was simply with words and that's awesome. He's giving back! Hordy Jones is totally a radical fishman fascist. Through a violent revolution Hordy will Usurp the crown and force all fishmen to be like minded in their ideals, to correct the mistakes of history and ruin mankind.... Now that's something. I like how he has an Arlong Pirates tattoo despite not being a part of them, maybe is symbolic of him carrying on the ambition, a statement that it didn't die with Arlong, it simply got stronger. It was also mentioned he used to be a soldier for Neptune. Then.. through all of this, Vander Decken is in it selfishly for a girl. That's all he wants! What a nutcase. At least with Luffy with her she should be okay. I hope Luffy gets marked and shave's behind him so the thrown object pierces Vander Decken himself trying to reach Luffy. Also, I knew as soon as he ran outside that he would do the Tao Pai Pai.. Anytime where someone throws something huge and rides it to their desired location is so cool. It was nice to get another look at Robin finally! It's the first time since she split up with Franky and I must say, HER HENTAI BOOBS ARE SERIOUSLY IMMERSION BREAKING FOR ME! It'll take me a little to get used to them so big and on display like that. It's notable that her mission here is super plot important, there's a poneglyph here and one that could help monumentally with the blank century, and something that no one else is focused on. This is interesting because this arc is personally important for both Robin and Franky. Franky met up with Den and he seemed so happy to be with him and to be applauded by Tom's brother. He seems to have taken Tom's fate well. He got Franky to mention the Sunny being the same material as Roger's ship making it clear that not only the disciple of the man who made Roger's ship made Luffy's, but they are made of the same freaking material. And, Den made an interesting point, fishmen and mermen are so different looking and the way they are born is a random chance depending on their ancestors, their family literally looks different from each other as if they are different species. Yet they are family, which makes humans discrimination for them being different so much more perplexing to the fish people. Then of course the raid into the palace! This is super cool and I wasn't expecting it! Zoro, Brook, Nami, and Usopp are up against the New Fishman pirates and maybe fighting against them will make Neptune change his mind regarding the Straw Hats. Plus Hordy seems to be the main villain yet the confrontation is with Zoro's group as Vander Decken heads to the slowly forming Luffy group of Luffy, Franky, Robin, Den and Jimbei. So both will have a threat but Zoro's group seems far more serious. I doubt they will need it but if they must they could also free the Neptune and really pile on the New Fishmen pirates. This set up has been super fun and next episode should be some serious confrontations, and in fact perhaps the first serious fights of the post timeskip! Meanwhile we have to wonder what Sanji and Chopper are up to. P.S. With Hawkins and Sharley clearly having some meaningful future predictions I wonder if Robin will be proven wrong and see that it's not that ridiculous to believe. She hasn't been close minded about Krakens or mythical creatures, but I suppose the realm of immaterial or spiritual is when she starts to show doubt. |
| Neptune correctly guessing the way Luffy was able to get Shirahoshi out of her room was hilarious because of how no one believed him. Great minds do think alike-jamon! It looks like it's also likely that Nico will also be stopping over where Franky and Jimbei are waiting~ |
 |
| Man... that poor Shark. LOL. Luffy and Shirahoshi are having fun talking about stupid things. LMAO |
 |
| Yeahh Luffy talking about fart to a Princess? LMAO |
