16:47 Enel reviving himself like that reminds me of a similar scene Wayyyy later 😮

I'm going to use yugioh to mask the spoilers that I am revealing here. A trap card has been set in this video and the opponent shall use it to win.

Forgot how strong Franky was even before becoming a cyborg.

19:10 WAIT IS THAT PAULIE?!

I can never understand that i cry over a damn ship every time i watch this arc or reactions to it

I will always say that water 7 and enies lobby is the best arks in all of One Piece

I'm gonna assume you didn't notice young Pauly and the twins at the launch of the sea train, cuz no way that wouldn't get a win!

25:08 to quote TBSkyen: “the fun doesn’t last, however, because this is a flashback and Oda wants to hurt us.”

8:38 Denji… (This is a very cruel joke, and I’m sorry.)

7:01 oh god, hearing Franky (indirectly) tell Usopp that he’d done a great job caring for the Going Merry suddenly made me weep.

This arc is insanely good and so is the next one

While not the most impactful of the bunch, I’ve always really liked Franky’s backstory as all of the pieces slowly fall into place one by one, all of the characters we’ve already seen slowly all coming together and revealing their connection to each other. It felt really unique and strangely realistic, probably because it actually shows so much time passing instead of fast cutting between years

I have watched one piece at least 3 times. I've read it four times...and still, this scene had me tearing up while eating lunch.

The whole part with the Going Merry was so heart wrenching... ...and Tom's backstory... ...my god... ...T-T

never getting tired of chopper holding zoro's sword like that, it's like if we tried hold a broom with our index and middle fingers, hilarious. also, manga difference, in the manga Nami doesn't see the train at all, it's just gone when she gets there

I love this part of H2O7. its funny and tragic that both Zoro and Luffy are stuck. But next episode or the one after (when I think of H2O7 as being over) is a good cap. My first watch through I had no clue how arcs were divided up, so thought of H2O7 and Enes Loby and Post Enes Loby as a singular but long arc... Enes Loby. Tom stuff tho is my fave part of Water 7 over all. It was just such good vibes.

Iceberg: Wait Straw Hat already lost what can you do now? Nami: Lost? We haven't begun to fight yet! Once they know we have to save Robin there won't be any limit to their strength! Such a powerful scene after the painful defeats we agonized over!

19:10 Paulie and Zambai(Franky’s second in command)! Also, not shown but Mozu and Kiwi were among the first to ride the train! Fun fact, as later revealed in an SBS Oda, the sea train launch was what inspired Paulie to become a Shipwright. The Square Sisters and Zambai also tried to become Shipwright’s, but failed.

38:40 I will say the scene IS cool. But also a bit mistranslated. The actual translation is "A real man can see through a woman's lies"

Thanks so much for watching, I'm again gonna stick anyone who is kind enough to support the work I do in this section over the next 24 hours or so! Hopefully I'll see a few of you over there! 1) Weclome to Kyle Kowalchuk joining at the Krillin Tier! 2) Massive shoutout to DarkLordBloodySoul for a big pledge increase to Saitama tier! 3) Welcome to Liam James joining the Levi group!

Take note of the blonde bearded gentlemen spandam was talking to. I believe you have seen his future self already; if not then be ready to be surprised when you do find out. This is around my 20th time through this arc but the first time I noticed who that blonde guy was. It raises the question of why here of all places.

Any of this stuff related to the Merry just breaks me This whole arc was really made with a Don!

Bump

Wait hold up do you read the manga too?

(also at the end of episode 248, one of the children running was Paulie, truly love how Oda gives completely skippable and hard to see details like that just to flesh out the world even more to rewatchers)

Classic anime one sad back story completely makes us like a character and forgive their past wrongs

even to this day Enis Lobby/Water Seven is one of the best OnePiece arcs ever. even tho i alway think enis lobby is missing a P

The Hype is real! Oda knocks this bit out of the park. One of the only times i’ve proper cried when reading something was when we hear and see whats happened to the Merry. The next few weeks are gonna be so lit! Also, i had never thought about it, cause i read it, but your comment about the villians in this arc is spot on. All the other villians, i’d argue minus crocodile were HUGE personalities. Bombastic and loud while CP-9 stands on pure business. Except Spandam. That guy gets what he deserves on the regular and he’s easily hateable and hilarious.

I love the running theme of Oda making you forget about Sanji with so much other stuff going on and then Sanji comes in out of nowhere with a sudden MVP play. First Little Garden, then Alabasta, then Skypiea, and now Water 7.

Yesssss this is so good

I think compared to some of the other backstories in One Piece, Franky's tends to get pushed to the side a little. Especially compared to Robin's backstory which if you haven't gotten to yet then hoo boy you are not ready for it. But still I feel like Franky's backstory has quite a lot of insight to give about taking pride in your work and Tom is a wonderful continuation of the trend of old mentors in One Piece being badass and full of wisdom.

Truly the only show that can make any grown up cry for a ship, A LITERAL SHIP !

Spandam getting hurt will never fail to make me laugh

19:08 - You missed that the boy here is actually Paulie, the lead dock worker under Iceberg now.

Yeah....Oda is the kind of author that can make you even cry over a boat! He just knows how to get people invested emotionally.

The Going Merry loves them so much that she fixed herself during Skypiea 😭😭 ALSO HAPPY OP SATURDAY EVERYONE!

Idk can’t think of a comment give Thor a head pat for me

Ironically, the One Peak train is still rolling

I’ve been saying this on any eps with w7 or enies lobby. This arc has some of the best world building , lore, char dynamics, and fights in the entire series. To this day as someone who is caught up, it’s my fav arc..can get me cackling, bawling, and hype as hell all in one ep

Frankie had the Best father figure he could ask for😢😢😢😢

Love your content! Thanks For this ❤❤❤❤

One piece

Oh Geese, you are such a great side character. Oh, Elinalise, you are more than your curse. Oh Lilia, you are such a loving seco- er third mom for Rudeus. Oh Slyphy, such a loving angel of a woman. Oh Roxy, such a lovable and selfish yet incredibly selfless person. Oh Lucy, even day 1 of being alive you are the cutest thing I've ever seen. Oh Norn, you are such a pained child yet so strong, I wish you happiness. Oh Aisha, you're so cute and yet so weird in your comedic moments. Oh Rudeus, your lowest moments resonate with me even if your perversions exceed my tolerances at times. Oh Paul...you were such a dad, maybe not the best one, but definitely an irreplaceable one.

Norn's cute little wave to Rudy (@ 29:25) was one of my favorite moments in the entire story. Wonderful stuff.

After watching season 2, most other anime just don't seem relevant anymore. This was better than I had hoped for - the hard work of all of the staff really shined. A lot of isekai has been flooding the market - but most don't make the effort to deliver anything special. This story is special, and it's still got a lot more to show us. I also loved how becoming a mom changed Sylphy from a fairly awkward girl to a beautiful and mature young woman. She was glowing. The more I see the details, the more amazing this story becomes.

I don't think I've ever seen a show get over 600 wins in 24 episodes

Well, I'm reading through the light novels and caught up on the anime so I can watch this now. I don't know how I feel about this story because he gets a bit too OP too fast, compared to other hunters but at least the enemies seem to keep with it. If nothing else it's good eye candy for sure and I like how the 'system' works.

the waterfall scene still brings me to tears because it´s so hilarious XD I love Luffy, Sanji, Usopp dynamic in this part :D

I absolutely despised the mc early on, and was fully supporting the characters that she was trying to eliminate. But later on, I actually started to like Nana once she shown remorse and guilt in certain points. Good character development. Waiting for a S2
