Official One Piece Anime & Manga Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

Bart's got his own Pistol in homage of Luffy, how cool. Cavendish being Two-Face was great, too. Next we get to see Robin be badass, can't wait.

 

One thing I really appreciate when it comes to anime is the soundtrack, and however else they handle the show, Toei knows how to put One Piece's to good use:

Even if Bart isn't superhumanly strong like a lot of the characters in the series, his Bari Bari Pistol has to hurt, those barriers have no give. And stuff like that is just another example of how I love the way characters use their powers in the series.

 

I wonder if he has any other Homage techniques.

Whats really cool is we see him go for the move right before he gets needled in the leg. Also, like the intelligence Bart had in trying to take him out and liked that he didn't go down with it. Only criticism I could have is that Gladious didn't keep attacking and instead just became the ball. I get that villains like screwing around with their opponents, but that stuff is is just really dumb.

 

As a whole, I feel like the fights are going a bit fast, but the last time the villain had proper underling was back in Triller Bark (don't count Fishmen since they were kind of meant to show off the crew) and that was like 4 so how things compare isn't that fresh in my mind. Honestly, this is the largest villain group we've ever had and we already have a ton of characters from this arc. All things considered Oda is still doing a great job with all the pieces. Hopefully we'll get a couple chapters of good action from the commanders. Mingo has already gotten a ton of panel time, and I don't see it decreasing.

I feel like him, cabbage, and Happo Navy group are going to have some role in coming arcs.

Even with characters who probably won't be recurring past this arc, we got some really cool supporting cast this time. I like the jacket fruit guy.

 

Seeing Sabo in the anime doing the Fire Fist was the best feeling of this weekend. <3

Yeah, it was only topped by

I wonder if Sabo, Koala, and Hack are gonna spend any time with the Straw Hats after this. I love it when sane people like Law or Jinbei hang out with them and realize they're mostly a bunch of idiots.

 

I've also realized, if this arc results in new bounties for the crew, Sanji and Chopper aren't around so they're still not gonna get the ones they want.

 I highly doubt this will increase their bounties. Remember Doffy's bounty is only that of 340 million, although, he could be a lot higher ala crocodile, where Oda stated Crocs bounty would be doubled had the Government known about his activities. But either way, I doubt it will increase unless they curbstomp Fujitora too (which is most likely not going to happen). If anything, it will increase once they curbstomp Kaido or Big Mom.

Senior Pink, so hard-boiled! TT^TT

 

Also, Franky's back is still flesh? I thought he would've fixed that during the timeskip.

That flashback man. Good god, Oda and his flashbacks..........

 

And I thought he said he did at one point. Likely not remembering it right and everyone just kind of assumed he did. I mean, even with giant arms modding your back seems hard.

Don't forget the best part.

 

LeoxMansherry OTP

That too was adorable. Just, everything about this chapter was so good. You ever have the fights flowing in a logical order with last weeks only working after most the officers were down and this week increasing the importance of protecting the factory because of last weeks. Can't stop gushing.

So I love how all the things Leo said about Mansherry early on, such as her "selfishness", was just him being really dense and misunderstanding all the hints she was dropping towards him. XD

 

EDIT: Had this pointed out to me in the MAL forums, but when Senor used Baby Buster, Franky landed on his chest, not his back.

I saw people talking about it. A man wouldn't attack another man from behind. GOD THAT WAS AN AMAZING CHAPTER!!!!
