----------------------------------------
I must say, at the start I was a bit skeptical that this would just be a "fill you in" episode, and I was content knowing that it was probably necessary. However, that moment when Luffy started walking up to Hordy, I literally went F*** yes! Great to see Luffy finally use his Haki, and the response of his crewmates. On a side note, was it just me or did the breast size in the episode decrease from the usual? Shirahoshi in particular.

Thanks for the preview as always, but I'm now a bit disappointed. I was REALLY hoping I would never need to see Kung-fuh Chopper ever again... Also on another side note, does anyone know where I can find the song that starts playing when Luffy used his haki? It's one of my favorite tunes that's not an opening

I've been waiting for this part ever since the first time I read it in the manga. Definitely Luffy's most epic moment yet.

Luffy is such a nice captain. He could easily take out all 100,000 of them with his haki, but he's nice enough to leave the leftovers for the rest of his crew. How else are they going to show off their new moves?

The fight has finally started. Is it only me or were the reactions of the SHs better in the manga than in the anime towards Luffy's haki?? It just seemed like more. Epic epsiode!!

One of the best anime moment of 2012.Luffy use his haki to knock out 50,000 weak mind FOOLS!And I got to say:Man,I can't wait to see more of that in New World.

They explained what happened after the jimbei-luffy fight at least. The animation was much uglier, and deformed, than normal though. Not counting last week's episode as a normal episode of course, because for some reason they decided to splurge on that one episode for their entrance, but use substandard animation for luffy's haki scene in this episode. Yeah would have been cooler if it actually looked like 50,000 people (it sure didn't) and the characters weren't drawn so screwed up looking.

Kind of wishing the straw hats were facing a stronger opponent though. I mean, hordy and crew look kind of weak, and are only cheating by popping pills. Hordy was some lowly captain, and got cut by zoro early on anyway. The fishmen in general are also supposed to be weaker and be oppressed by the humans. It just seems so one sided. Maybe if Hordy was more devious and the battle was less about brute strength. That wouldn't be very one piece though. I do really like the story they are trying to tell though. Not as good as the arabasta arc but better than everything since. Hope their's some twist, like Hordy is the OTHER son that Gol D Roger had with a mermaid. XD Has some hidden powers or something, and not just popping pills all day.

I have to admit they dragged the hell out of this episode. I do have to admit in all of One Piece this is the weakest arc. You guys will love the next arc thats all im going to say.

I rather them drag out an episode and not do stupid fillers(Naruto).

Uh actually,Fishmen in general are supposed to be STRONGER than humans.And they aren't (for the most part) oppressed,it's more like looked down on by humans.

The whole battle here is pretty much just to show off the results of their training from the last 2 years. The fights are rather one sided, but still very enjoyable just like the rest of the series.

This episodes real title: Strawhats recap of what really happened last episode.

Can't believe I actually thought that the fights would begin this ep, silly me <.<

And what the hell did they do to the artwork, that looked so horribly bad that I'm almost at a loss of words. Hope they shape that up for the next episode which, hopefully, will have the fights finally starting.
Pantyshots are a different matter entirely

Dang it. They really are cutting corners. But Luffy's Haki is boss.
Cannot wait for Sanji and the others to kick ass too!

luffys haki was awesome :3
it figures this didn't really show much. considering the fact that this whole arc was dragged out, its really not surprising this episode was no different.
i noticed the art, but was too excited about the episode to not care much about it...i really do hope they actually start fighting next episode rather than just talking SOME MORE and have zoro and sanji fight for the last 5 minutes >.>

There are about 6 episodes I keep on my home computer and watch when I need to see some awesomeness.

Shanks' entrance on WB's ship.
Luffy - Motobaro
Rayleigh's entrance
Luffy vs Boa sisters
Luffy scaring off the wolves
Luffy's haki burst at Marineford.

This is so going on the list.

Man, Luffy is just such a badass character because he never talks shit and always just shows everyone how strong he is. I didn't expect them to fight in this episode, but this episode was still pretty good. I like how Brook is still crackin his, "Oh, but I don't have any [insert organic body part here] yohohoho" even if they're facing 100,000 men, lmao.

Hordy is like, oh shit, I'm f^ked now.

I've skipped the last few episodes since I didnt have to watch all that fishman story stuff but I started again with this episode since they are finally starting the fight and I have to say:
What the hell this is like the worst animation I have ever seen in One Piece. The part with the emperors Haki was an especially big letdown for me thanks to that!
Its the first time we really see the "new" crew in action and its made this bad thats sad.
Well I hope it gets better with the next episode else I'll skip a few more =D

For the most part this episode was pretty meh with all the dialogue, but the ending made up for all of it. Luffy was such a badass with his Conqueror's Haki, this was definitely near the top of the list of Luffy's many epic moments.

Luffy's hero explanation is the funniest part of the episode :D

Luffy: Do you know what heroes are?
Jimbei: Hhh?
Luffy: Say there is a chunk of meat. Pirates will have a banquet and eat it. But heroes will share it with other people. I want all the meat!
Nami: Is that how he defines a hero?
Sanji: So it all comes back to meat again?
Jimbei: I will let you have your meat just as long as you do as I tell you!
Luffy: Okay
Chopper: What?! That easy?!

Haki part is also nice, cant wait for the next episode!

I knew this episode will be filled with final talks before the battle. We were patient enough until now. From now on the battle finally starts. Get ready folks!

Finally we are about to see the new powers of Mugiwara Ichimi. I can wait to see how Luffy will fight using his haki.

At least fillers don´t touch upon the quality of the rest of the series. I´d rather have them do fillers and increase the pace.

My thoughts exactly. The pacing has been pretty bad this entire arc. Luffy's Haki was still badass though. Hopefully when the actions picks up next week it will stay at a good pace. 4/5

I think if Hordy wouldnt say things he shouldnt, about becoming King of Pirates, Luffy's main reason to fight would be getting some meat LMAO.I just loved his definition of being hero and pirate XD
Anyway...this haki was just SO MUCH epic.When Luffy gets serious you need to run, especially now after he mastered all haki's...

Bloody-nosed, Two-bit Chef LOL.
And i didn't actually know Jinbei can be so hilarious XD this episode was funny and epic.Like always :D
