All members of the crew are silly in one way or another, that's the charm of this series. Oh you mean funny? yeah I agree. But not as funny as when they were being chased by Smile. But..."And this episode says everything :P"... you know Sanji was the main attraction this episode. So this episode doesn't actually say anything like that. |

GaaraSama83 said: That was showed/"explained" at Punk Hazard. Think about Smiley (it had a devil fruit in it) at the moment it died and what happened with one of the apples nearby. Since then a lot of questions came into my mind. Ceaser knows how this works for sure cause the apples were placed there intentionally. But when did they say Smiley had a Devil Fruit??? I mean in the One Piece world, just because it was a ball of goop doesnt mean it was the ability of a Devil Fruit. edit: oh I found it in the manga. Why the hell did the anime decide to completely skip that piece of info?! Thats like SUPER important! It proves that Blackbeard didnt just inherit the Gura Gura Fruit's ability through a secret method exclusive to his own Yami Yami Fruit. Rather, he "farmed" the Devil Fruit by keeping a normal fruit on his person and once Whitebeard died, the Gura Gura Fruit "possessed" Blackbeard's normal fruit becoming the new Gura Gura Fruit that Blackbeard then ate. Ha so I was right, the Will of D allows a person to eat 2, if not more, Devil Fruits. Super fucking important piece of info though. Its unbelievable the anime left it out! |

| About the Devil fruit discussion, I'm pretty sure Ace dropped a seed when he died. |

GaaraSama83 said: AzurePisces said: now that explains how devil fruit comeback.. That was showed/"explained" at Punk Hazard. Think about Smiley (it had a devil fruit in it) at the moment it died and what happened with one of the apples nearby. Since then a lot of questions came into my mind. Ceaser knows how this works for sure cause the apples were placed there intentionally. In the past (I think it was the Enies Lobby Arc) one chara (Bruno?!?) said, that the mystery about how the devil fruit works is already resolved by science. I'm sure Vegapunk was it and so Ceaser/Dofla knowing a lot about it is no big surprise. This explains the whole thing with SMILE and I'm sure Dofla "catched" the Mera Mera after the death of Ace at Marineford. Another question is, if that was the same thing happening with Blackbeard/Whitebeard or something completely different. Maybe the "devil" really comes out after death and Teach can "catch" it without a fruit but directly with his Yami Yami power. And if so, THAT would really rise the question if BB was knowing all this about the Yami Yami no Mi from the start, cause that would explain why he was so eager to get this and no other fruit. But from where or whom did he then got such informations? I think I just had my mind blown. |
| Only enjoyed the dance scene tbh :/ |

It was so long ago that I'm not completely positive. GaaraSama83 said: It looks like Minagatachi is right. In the episode 597 there is an info box under Smiley that wasn't translated. I'm sorry if I spoiled something, but I think this information is important, so every OP fan should know it. Maybe Caesor or some other chara mentioned it eating a devil fruit in the anime, but I can't remember such a scene. Although I'm not sure if Blackbeard uses or even neads fruits to catch it, if I recall right there was maybe a hint on that matter. The scene with Luffy and Doc Q in Mock Town, when he picked an apple from him. About the Will of D, I don't think that has something to do being BB capable of eating two or more DFs. It still tend to the version that the Yami Yami is responsible for this. Although I'm not sure if Blackbeard even has known about this special ability of his fruit from the beginning. Why did he wait to test it so long? On the other side, that could be explained easily. It takes a while to use its full potential like every other DF user enhances his abilities with training. Hearing about the war and Whitebeard coming there, maybe he decided to make a bet on fate then. Trying out the special ability and getting one of the most powerful DF, all at once. Ah you guys are right. An info box certainly was there. I wonder why the fansubbers didnt translate? I mean Im not gonna complain about something someone does for free but at least get the important parts. lol |

| That episode was full of love! Should have aired this weekend for valentines haha. With the added filler scenes it had a nice feel to it for once. Sanji's reactions were great, glad he didn't die of a nosebleed this time around :P I don't mind them doing less content if they add good originality to it, beats watching recaps and still scenes :) REALLY hoping they expand on the upcoming fights rather than the character introductions!! |
 |
| violet and sanji part is funny,. looks like im the only one who want violet's sweat haha.. |
 |
| Sanji is a fucking retard, just like me. If Luffy is looking like Master Roshi, it's no coincidence. |

| Everyone doing whatever they want lol. I dont think Law would appreciate that and I'd love to see his reaction to Luffy entering the tournament. I epsecially loved Sanji this ep, Im curious to see what's gonna happen with him and Violet. Very intersting episode compared to the previous ones. I just hope they are not going to make the tournament 50+ episodes. |
 |
| LOL sanji so op |
| So We are Soon In Very Interesting Colosseum Fights and The Dressrosa final War Arc. Animation of the Sanji and Violet first meeting was Nice, still Laughed even more when read it in manga. I am Pretty Sure that Oda will make it so that Violet is Engaged at end of this Dressrosa arc or something else to Break Sanji's Heart. I tough Hope Not. I Know Sanji is Man Who Love's Every Beautiful Woman in the World and has Somewhat Very good Manners towards older and younger ladies. But this Episode and Last Manga Arc Has Just Gotten me to Cheer This Pairing. I don't even know the Reason. I know Sanji is Fool when it comes to But Still...Maybe I am Somewhat Hopeless Romatic. ;P X) ;) |

| This episode was great. :3 I laughed a lot, though I got the unfortunate vibe that Violet is playing Sanji. I mean, she's beautiful, funny and she seems nice, but some of those sideways looks... ehh, there's going to have to be something that keeps Sanji on the crew, and not staying forever with Violet. On the topic of the Sanji vs Zoro: who is better conversation... Well, my favorite is Zoro, but Sanji has his own charms. And the whole getting lost thing? Zoro didn't start out that bad, really, iirc. It just got worse and worse until the current point. Maybe there's something toxic in that hilt he keeps putting in his mouth. >>; They both have weak points that are over the top. |
 |
| OMG after months and months of avoiding OP, due to the pacing, I AM BACK! 20+ episodes to catch up on! WOOHOOO, One Piece marathon TIME! Man I loved this episode, my soul missed OP :D. Violet <3, are all the woman in Dress Rosa easy? o.o Man I need to go there, getting stabbed is worth it ^^! |
| OMFG! |
| ✈️ |
| Sanji gonna get stabbed lol. |
 |
| skipped, was this episode really necessary? it should be a filler. |
 |
| Amazing how we can spend an entire episode introducing characters that don't matter |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| If Franky doesn't want the fruit, I feel like Luffy will give it to Sanji bc he also has fire based skills......... Buuuuuut, he's also the best swimmer in the crew so I don't want him to lose his ability to swim ;~; it'd be really awesome to see him with boosted firepower thoooooo *O* |
| Sevilla? I thinks this episode was inspirated in this spanish city!!! Sanji and the dancer Violet, nice couple, and Sanji seems very happy with this pretty girl, alghough a misterious!!! |
| Even I'd get distracted by Violet- she's a fine woman- I'd put her hotness on par with Hancock's tbh Loved the music she was dancing too as well...anyways, trust Sanji to get himself into a troubling situation with a lady on the island of love and passion. He's about as smooth as the surface of the moon, but boy would I love a guy to break into a restaurant kitchen to cook a fancy meal for me lol I could go for shipping Sanji x Violet- they look good together actually. Looks like Luffy and Franky are gonna enter the competition for the Mera Mera no Mi, and I'm honestly pretty giddy that Ace is still affecting the plot somewhat even two years after his death. |

| The rescue/factory team has become almost completely separated and all of them are pursuing their own goals now! Kin’emon is continuing to look for Kanjuro, Sanji has fallen in love and is following a beautiful dancer’s wishes, Zoro is chasing a fairy, and Luffy and Franky are entering the Colosseum. If this is the case, how will they find the factory? Assuming the cast will have their ears open, perhaps this wasn’t so bad. By splitting up they’re all going to wildly different areas, meeting new friends, and overall I’m sure all of them will end up doing things central to their mission. Violet and that fairy will probably be key, and the Colosseum, Don Quixote territory where no police or navy can step, is going to be a hotspot. Kin’emon being trailed has ought to get him close to this all too, I presume everyone will have an insane and exciting and hilarious adventure and it’ll all come together eventually. We also got confirmation about how devil fruits reproduce. Does that mean Blackbeard just went inside a tent with Whitebeard’s body, bringing an apple so it transferred over, and then ate it? That would be a little anticlimactic wouldn’t it? To speak specifics, Dressrosa is giving me a deep love for the Luffy/Franky duo that I didn’t have before. First, I choked up at the beautiful way the episode opened. Franky recognized that Luffy was serious about Ace’s devil fruit despite not having known Ace well at all, and Luffy even wanted Franky to have it. Already that, to ask his friend to take his late brother’s power, is incredibly touching. But Franky said he didn’t want to lose his ability to swim, perhaps that’s as simple as it is, or perhaps he thought it wasn’t his place to take the power. Regardless, Franky knowing what it meant to Luffy, decided that even if it’s an obvious trap by Doflamingo that one thing was certain, they had to go and leave no regrets, to live resolutely perhaps. This scene and later when they reached the Colosseum is what sold me the Franky/Luffy dynamic. Franky does totally feel like the big brother he says he is. He can be as much of a kid as Luffy is and have a total blast with him, yet when it’s time to be serious and reliable he can do that and be the guide Luffy needs, while also choosing to do the seemingly impossible for Luffy’s sake. It’s totally sweet. And, I must mention here, the one legged toy soldier is one cute dude. What if he has like a sad past and a strong resolve or something. I get that feeling from him. Then we have Sanji meeting the beautiful Violet, quite comically too by telling Zoro he’s wasting his time by chasing a sword and then getting completely absorbed by her. When she embraced Sanji as to avoid the police I was already coincidentally thinking about how evil Sanji could be if he was working under a beautiful but cruel female captain. That kind of scenario would explore him pretty well, he can be ruthless, but he obviously cares about people and will even put himself on the line for their sake. Yet he’s willing to do anything for a beautiful woman, he’ll even gladly get stabbed by her. And then she asked Sanji to escort her to the next town and KILL SOMEONE, as if Oda read my mind. We’ve been using the “kill” word a lot recently for One Piece standards, the plan to “kill” Kaido, or “kill” this person. Anyways, I don’t know how to feel about her trustwise. She’s hard to pin down. Perhaps she is as passionate a person as they say, even comparable to Sanji with her tears and ability to easily fall in love, and likewise her inclination to stab people. As for what she gets out of Sanji, I love it. Sanji’s ability to be this concoction of a protective and reliable brother figure, a perverse and hopeless romantic, an explosion of screaming emotions, a complete brat, and yet also be an insanely cool guy and resolved guy, sometimes all at the same time is just, quality writing. As women do, Violet is able to get his super cool and explosive sides out as a near constant. Sanji’s love of this passionate, loving island was nicely contrasted with Zoro furiously saying he hated this island full of puppets and fairies, along with a nice line about the sword being important, not because it’s some national treasure, but because it’s a dang great sword and a gift from the remnants of a legendary samurai. Out of respect he needs to keep it. Remember when he had that delicate farewell to the sword that he got from the shop along with his cursed blade because of its past owners dreams? The ship itself may be a crewmember but Zoro’s swords are like his own little crew as well, in my mind at least. |
| Violet's definitely bad news with how passionate she is with her unfaithful lovers and her first request to Sanji being an assassination order but I have to agree that she's a pretty good dancer and she's hot too. If Luffy does end up winning that fruit, I wonder which one of his friends would end up eating it, hm. I guess that we'll find out if he'll even be able to have that as an option very soon! |
 |
| So, we're basically in Spain... Huh? |
 |
| Violet's dance was Hot ngl |
| Between Sanji's dangerous liaison with Violet & the mysterious toy soldier, this episode was an absolute riot. I have no doubt Sanji is getting way in over his head on this one, but I just love how OP takes these bizarre subplots and fits them in so nicely. |
 |
| It's Sanji luckiest day 😆 |
