| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I liked the last episode, but the first half of this was one was a drag. Thankfully it got better towards the end. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| People can say whatever they want. But I think they nailed it greatly on this episode! |
| They really nailed his death scene |
| Oh what they did half a page on this. Seems like some of the stuff I'm expecting will be in next episode. R.I.P Yasuie TwT you legend. |
| Toko's VA has done a really great job with her character 10/10. Very emotional episode. |

| This is one of those episodes that every manga reader should watch. It's great in the manga too, but to actually hear the laughter of the Ebisu townspeople as they cry adds another level. |
  |
| Episode 940 comprised of pages 8-15 of chapter 942 and pages 2-3 of chapter 943. Definitely a heart tugging episode. Zoro's anger and realization of the Smile fruits was great. |
| I reject your reality, and substitute my own. |
| Hmm I didn't find it dragging at all,great episode from start to finish well done Toei. R.I.P Yasui |
| The pacing could have been better but it was still emotional to finally watch this part in the anime. The curse of "SMILE" :) |
 |
| Welp, RIP Yasuie, at least he tried to salvage the plan by shifting the blame onto himself and on Orochi's delusions. |
| FRICK WHY THEY SHOW MY FAVOURITE UPCOMING SCENE IN THE PREVIEW great episode, for some odd reason my favourite part was when brook recoiled with a 'huh' after seeing everyone laughing lol (fr tho can big mom reach Udon already) |
| This anime shit is addictive |
| Damn feels...rip Yasuie... noble self-sacrifice to protect the plan.... I now feel bit stupid for not realising them always laughing may have to do with the manufactered devil fruit SMILE, curious to see how it causes that. |
 |
| Yeah this episode was great, perfect pacing. The recap could have been trimmed but really thats small little nitpicking. Finally were getting into best part of the story of act 2's wano arc. |
  |
| This episode was good if we say it's from the Toei. The manga is far better because Episodes drag on each scene unfortunetly so the effect of haste is wasted. RIP Yasuie, you were a good man |

| Great episode Yasuie's death feel more emotional than the manga |
 |
| On a related note, Wano really is the prettiest location since Fishman Island. The view from where Yasuie was truly was beautiful. |
| Quality Queen. |

| Sad to see Yasu-san go. Tbh,, I thought he would be saved by Zoro, but I guess that wasn't the case. It's Zoro after all. Strange he didn't appear 5 years later with his sense of direction. xD A heartbreaking ep., but this has made both Zoro and Luffy furious. Interesting to see what's going to happen next. |

| So far, i find Wano Arc the weakest arc in One Piece. Im not enjoying at all with every episode dragging every scene. |
 |
| I dunno why I wasn't as affected as everyone here. I remember when I read this I felt truly sad but here it was a little too padded out I guess? Some scenes felt like a drag for sure. Also I really dislike how Kien's VA does the same "sad noises" every time so obnoxiously, it really doesn't show any emotion for me and it just ends up irritating. There also were too many bullet shots... I dunno... The padding took away the impact for me I suppose. Oh well, hoping the rest is better. |

| Damn, this was some episode! Perhaps a little dragged out and padded as quite rightly pointed out but the emotions was the real find this episode, imo. And then that turn-around out of the blue leading to the reveal of the truth behind the Smile devil fruits. I was pretty shocked as well to be honest despite knowing it was coming from last week's episode. Zoro's reaction at the very end though, boy are things about to blow off now. Shogun vs. Zoro & Sanji next? |

| The episode title was a bit misleading Zoro rampage. Overall ok episode. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Yeah Orochi, you are going to die for this. It is rage inducing.... |
 |
| What an emotional episode! RIP Yasuie. It's a pity he's sacrificed. |
| The episode was great, but it dragged on for a bit in the beginning. The end was really good. I believe Yasuie's death was a bit underwhelming because I feel it could have happened in last week's episode, but still very sad. I was questioning if the people were genuinely laughing at the end. I liked the reveal. |
 |
| I can agree that they nailed it with this episode. The whole atmosphere, the OST's in the background and obviously the great work of the VA's. What a great man Yasuie was. He even managed to confuse everyone by saying it was his idea with the flyers and with that he gave the real plan a second chance. The flashbacks made it even worse for me, especially the one with Toko. God damn man, this is just so fucking sad. When everyone began to laugh I had the absolute same reaction as Zoro. Usually you don't see him so furious but how could you not react like that? The reveal and the real meaning behind the "smile" fruits was just crazy. I couldn't even imagine that this was possible. |
 |
| The multiple gunshots was actually one of the more realistic parts of the episode - they are using fairly primitive smoothbore guns. At that range they would be lucky to hit the target with 1 shot in 20 at best. |

spectrojan said: Sinbad200 said: So far, i find Wano Arc the weakest arc in One Piece. Im not enjoying at all with every episode dragging every scene. Can't say I agree but if it helps, I can tell you it only gets better from here on lol Yeah exponentually. The wano arc is probably going to end up being the best arc in the series. I don't think anime only watchers have any idea how immportant this arc is. But i will say from this point onward, the story really starts picking up. Also a note to Yasue's death scene. I see some people comment that they don't feel any emotional attachment or feel any kind of sadness from his death scene. Well that isn't really the point. I mean why would you feel sad about a character you barely know. The way everthing has been set up is for the scabbards to inact their revenge plot against kaido and Orochi, how ever it seems every step of the way, due to a traitor leaking their plans to kaido and orochi. Things have not been going the way the scabbards intended, so thus Yasuie death is just that. Its to create an oppurnity and to throw off kaido and orochi with false information. So the nine red scabbards can continue their plans unhindered. If you think about that. its just beautiful and such a very sefless act. To die for the kozuki clan so they can fufill their ambition 20 years later. This kind of story just has alot of depth to it. |
| |
| Yasue saved the whole operation, at least, they have another chance, and hopefully, Shutenmaru is gonna join them. Well, the force may be with you, Yasue, it was sad. |
 |
| It was obvious it was Smile, damn, that's sad. |
 |
| One of the tear jerkers, indeed. Poor Toko. :( I had not stopped to think why SMILE was called what it was. Another shocker on top of all the tension. I hope Zoro kicks hell out of Orochi. He's had it coming for a good while now. |
| Risk something, take back what's yours Say something they know they might attack you for. --Linkin Park, "Hands Held High" |
| So yeah Toko completely outran Zoro and the other fucking adults chasing after her sure sure. Anyway, the word smile is kinda a giveaway, seen that from the start. I wonder how's Joker doing nowadays that fucking piece of shit or those poor giant kids from his lab. I honestly thought Yasu would somehow survive but I guess we'd need a death or two if Luffy's going to beat Kaido cause he ain't like Doflamingo, he's the biggest fish. |
 |
| A bit too drawn out for my taste, given that Yasuie isn't such an important character. Seems like the SMILE fruits are somehow responsible for the mess in Ebisu town, wonder why that is. Episode 942 should be good with the duo fighting together. |
| RIP Yasu q__q Looking forward to see ppl kicking Orochi's ass next :/ |
