I've never felt so represented by a fictional character than at that moment.

[@1235Gdog]

for real, it's so nice too. Every single person I have watched react this scene, is so lost in the sauce after the big line either in tears or frowns, without fail franky breaks the silence with laughs EVERYTIME. oda is god tier with his timing especially pre time skip. (that or toei used to vibe with it )

[@parthachem83]

Three symptoms that indicate u became a die hard One Piece fan: 1. U start theorizing the most ridiculous things about story and nothing is off limits. U can spend hours on it 2. U keep trying to make others join in this community or family of fans and experience what u experienced through it. U want ur friends, family, etc to watch it and get the once in a lifetime experience u had 3. U keep saying, "Why didn't I start One Piece sooner?" Or "Where has this been all my life?" 😎😅

This episode is so fucking beautiful. In Water 7, you learn that Robin would be ready to sell the whole world if it meant saving the SH, and here Luffy shows her in return that he is willing to go to war with the whole world to defend her. For once she found someone who is ready to get attached to her the same way she gets attached to them.

What Zoro did after Robin said “she want to live “ is called “金打kinncyou”, push the sword out then put it back and knock the cross guard. The act is simple but means “I use my life to promise you”

Zoro's gesture was always a mystery for me, thank you for clearing that

this is when I went from one piece lover to one piece glazer

[@emiliocorvalan3322]

There are examples of history being written by the winners in a lot of media and even the real world,but normaly it shows the losers as evil and dangerous. But the idea that the goverment would rather erase even the existence of their enemy is facinating to me

[@sarafontanini7051]

what i love about one piece is that there IS no murkiness or justification. What the World Government is doing here is straight up EVIL, no amount "the ends jusitfies the means" can actually justify this genocide.

[@yellowcard8100]

@@sarafontanini7051 Evil is relative. People think eating meat is Evil. What Sakazuki did in his eyes was justified. Even Kuzan mentions it "absolute justice can lead someone mad". To us the reader, we see the truth, but these characters don't.

[@EzartJMir]

we have another one coming this arc

[@rzulianTM]

After the Ohara, One Piece shows that it’s not just about pirates going on adventures to find treasure. It has a very complex and heavy storyline, and the darker aspects of the world are even quite relatable to the real world, all presented with the action fantasy style typical of Jump.

[@ridzaxs333]

Ohara & Robin Backstory is my Favorite story always in One Piece. 😤👍🔥

[@makizzan7803]

Robin felt that she was a curse and the SH were going to eventually leave her, so Luffy decided to become the curse himself by declaring war on WG so Robin had nothing to fear. Genius

[@GoatLuffy_97]

After Arlong Park I knew One Piece was something special. After Alabasta I knew One Piece was one of my favorite anime. After Enies Lobby I knew One Piece was one of the greatest stories ever told.

[@MxMoondoggie]

This arc is the peak of One Piece. Robin felt she'd be a burden to everybody because she's an enemy of the World Government they'll never stop going after so she ran. Luffy did the one thing he could do which was shoot the flag which declares war on the World Government and makes all of the crew equal to Robin, this means she no longer has a reason to try to protect them by turning herself in and dying. This was Luffy's way of showing how valuable his crew is to him that he'll declare war on the entire world to protect them. Robin really came into her own as a character in this arc.

[@plutonian0612]

This episode hits a lot more harder for those who actually had abandonment issues. And Robin's mentality at this moment felt so real, and then with that shouts at the end, it's so powerful.

[@gophrrgold]

Robin's past is my favorite backstory in One Piece and the Luffy/Robin + Luffy/Sogeking exchange is my favorite moment in the entire anime. 10/10 story, 10/10 writing, 10/10 direction, 10/10 voice acting: Yuriko Yamaguchi's "I WANT TO LIVE!" is one of the best line deliveries in the entire show and I still get chills and tears every single time I see it - your stunned silence says it all.

[@Danifruto]

this chapters never failed to make me cry!! 😭😭😭😭

[@anime_enjoyer5507]

the difference between a pirate who doesnt declared a war to the government vs those who does.. pirates are already considered criminals in this world, it'll be like a robber or a murderer in our world, but those who challenge the WG are people who actually has some beef towards the government, the officials, those in the higher ups, in short you'll be considered a terrorist and will actually put you high to their priority

[@KingOfEden12]

Walk to arlong park is what got me to like One Piece. Vivi saying goodbye to the straw hats is what got me to love One Piece And this episode right here is what made One Piece my favorite series of all time ❤

[@RitaFeldt]

Going from "Aw, Chopper" to "Aw, Merry" to "Awww, Robin"

[@NinjaPopeXue]

Me: I'm not gonna cry from One Piece. Oda: Oh, you think have a say in the matter?

[@Jojirius]

Professor Clover: It's true that the ancient weapon would threaten the world. However, isn't it actually that the World Government is more threatened by people becoming aware of that kingdom's existence and ideology? Lindsay: Hm...I just sorta think, what could be so- Carson: Weapons! Lindsay: Could there be something other than the weapon? Like some- Carson: Maybe more weapons!

[@MulletPower75]

To add to your guys Void Century talk. It was mentioned by Robin in Skypiea while she was investing the ruins of Shandora that the country had fell 800 years ago. Which also lined up with the end of the void century. Shandora also famously having a Poneglyph that the Shandian's ancestors died protecting those 800 years ago according to Calgara in the flashback.

[@gabrielmujica9113]

It surprises me how almost no one remembers or recognizes that Sakazuki was the culprit that there were no survivors of Ohara

[@marioyonathan]

45:46 Sakazuki. Remember the name

[@joker4115]

[@akramhecini7192]

Maybe I should rewatch one piece for the first time so I can fall in love with it all over again !

[@dustyacer2556]

tbh i kinda agree with the survivor ship being blown up. Like its really hard to tell who are archiologists, if you are going to destroy a precious island. might as well kill everyone. Also not sure if anyone on first watch through remembers this guy as akainu later on.

[@dustyacer2556]

@lightbaker im yeah they are those things, but they would still be those things without even killing everyone on the island. if this was as big of a deal as they make it out to be, you better make sure what u did wasnt in vain.

[@koki84ji7]

I mean Dr Hirluck and chopper happened a while ago

[@emiliocorvalan3322]

In Ohara there is a great look at the "Justice" of the One Piece world, Aokiji follows what he is told, and both Saúl and Sakazuki go against orders but as Sakazuki's extreme methods fit with the goverment's wishes he is allowed to be, while Saúl is seen as a deserter but he is just following his sense of Justice as well. The goverment doesn't want people that just follow orders, they want people that will follow their "Absolute Justice". Now for One Piece at a time: Sakazuki in the present is Admiral Akainu, who acording to the G8, is Jonathan's mentor, somehow.

[@adrianekaori]

Luffy declaring war against the world government was to make Robin's enemy his enemy, thus showing her she's really part of the crew. Robin understood that and finally uttered her wish.

[@johnwright3803]

FYI remember the name of the person who ordered the refugee ship to be destroyed. He’s subtly mentioned here but comes up later and it’s a connection that can easily be missed.

[@NinjaPopeXue]

There is a small moment in the anime (not in the original manga) where after Robin shouts that she wants to live, Zoro briefly unsheathes and then re-sheathes his sword. It could simply be him checking over his equipment, but a theory that I came across before and have since subscribed to is that he is performing 金打 (Kinchou), an olden samurai practice in which two swordsmen would clink together the hilts of their katana, making a sharp metallic sound that signified a vow of honor or promise to be upheld (women would do this by hitting their hand mirrors together). There is no other swordsmen around, so Zoro produces the sound by simply hitting his hilt against the scabbard, meaning he will uphold the promise of bringing Robin back out to sea.

[@SirjayjayManansala-uq5pf]

Don't dare compare Sogeking to ussop, Sogeking has a theme song While ussop have none. So prove me otherwise

[@crazcane]

These are indisputable facts.

[@lawrencebarfield6424]

The archeologists were not just scrambling futilely for something to do. They were sacrificing their lives trying to preserve knowledge by getting as many books into the lake as they could so that the books would not burn.

[@kunalsinghal1247]

Well it is not instantly possible for everyone to figure that out. Most people think after seeing this episode that despite scholars efforts, everything gets burned. Their effort was futile. Its after so many arcs we learned the effort was significant.

[@lawrencebarfield6424]

@@kunalsinghal1247 I mean I wasn't trying to be mean about it, just pointing out something I considered important about their dedication. In response to your post though, in 277 Olvia gives a speech about having to stay to preserve what they could and in 278 it shows the entire lake full of saved books with characters commenting on all the books incase the audience didn't pay attention. We knew lots of books survived thanks to the archeologists, the reveal later was about other things that need not be mentioned for spoiler reasons.

[@dabidabi141]

i'm glad i'm watching these reactions because i did not remember at all that sakazuki killed the innocents. Also that kuzan and sakazuki were on the same post on the same mission. Glad that we got to see how far sakazuki will go for "justice" this early on.

[@PauloRobertoF]

Guys, one of the best episodes.. one of greatest moments! 🙏... greetings from brazil 🙋

[@sarafontanini7051]

It's not impossible to imagine that every once in a while some group would rise to challenge the world government only to be quashed, leading to everyone just giving up. Kokoro DEFINITELY didn't know about what the scholars of ohara discovered (after all, that was like the whole reason ohara got blowed up) and I doubt tom did either he ONLY had the blueprints for Pluton (he also believed the talk about the scholars of Ohara being devils, as he warned Franky and Iceburg about robin, which suggests he didn't know anything about the truth there)

[@mystery_mike23]

Seeing how motherly Robin is with the crew (Chopper especially) makes a lot of sense when you get her backstory.

[@jarrettenaope7038]

The Most Touching AND BADASS MOMENT !…One of the More RENOWNED events in OP History

[@Aviertje]

At first, people tell those new to the story that One Piece gets good at Arlong Park. Then, when those people reach they, they move the goal post and say that One Piece gets good after you enter the Grand Line. When you reach Drum Kingdom. When you experience the epicness of Arabasta. The adventure of Skypiea set to the backdrop of the generational promise. Or they might just skip directly to Water 7 and Enies Lobby. That is where One Piece really gets good. TB? SA? ID? MF? Who is to say whether those arcs can live up to the hype of the glory that is the saga you are currently watching. Not to mention the entire mythical post-timeskip some people are talking about... When One Piece fans say that the story only gets better, they might be a bit biased and ignoring some warts, but they surely aren't far off either. Water 7 and Enies Lobby are the point where Oda starts to transition from laying the groundwork of an amazing world while telling mostly self-contained stories, to actually moving the pieces around. This is where Eiichiro Oda begins to show he is not just a master of the micro, but also of the macro. And while a jack of all trades excels at nothing, the overall quality of his work definitely goes up to another level. People will say that Water 7 and Enies Lobby are peak One Piece, and that is definitely true... but at the same time, we've only barely started climbing the mountain, too. Please enjoy the climb as you continue to reach greater heights than you will imagine possible - even more-so than these very episodes!

[@Courier_Seven]

Robin forcing herself to laugh like saul in the boat is the first time watching one piece where i involuntarily and without warning started feeling a legit stream of tears run down my face.

[@RoadtoArkham]

Ya know, that’s an interesting point about Kokoro. Because she might and there’s a good, cultural reason for that

[@_Lumiere_]

44:20 I think that this is maybe the best theory about Aokiji's actions when he attacked the Straw Hats. Spot on imo.

[@parthachem83]

About the discussion on WG being good or evil, there is a very famous dialogue from one of the most liked character in future which is, "Winners decide who is evil and who is good since they write the history" 😎. This explains basically everything about WG and their pious attitude even after so many atrocities

[@sarafontanini7051]

The world government will protect you, the world government will love you, just so long as you just sit back and don't stick out from the crowd. Just let the world government keeps its boot pinned to your neck, if you don't wanna be like Ohara.

Tribute song to Robin and to the scholars of Ohara - Die Gedanken Sind Frei (Thoughts Are Free), a German song written (I think) around the time of Germany becoming one country, I first heard of it when I heard of anti-Nazi non-violent activist Sophie Scholl playing it on her flute outside the prison her father was sent to for calling Hitler a 'scourge against god', these are the lyrics for the version recorded in the 1960s by Pete Seeger: 'Die gedanken sind frei My thoughts freely flower Die gedanken sind frei My thoughts give me power No scholar can map them No hunter can trap them No man can deny Die gedanken sind frei I think as I please And this gives me pleasure My conscience decrees This right I must treasure My thoughts will not cater To duke or dictator No man can deny Die gedanken sind frei And should tyrants can take me And throw me in prison My thoughts will burst free Like blossoms in season Foundations will crumble And structures will tumble And free men shall cry Die gedanken sind frei'

[@crackracing7900]

I know this is like, one of the most iconic moments in the entire series,but I just wanna mention the fact that that Jonathan from G-8, the nicest man around, is supposed to be Akainu's protégé...but the first time we see this guy in the story he's committing full on genocide lmao. I guess it's always good to have subordinates who will give you a second opinion?

[@redlimes4808]

My God it's so good. Robin has spent her life learning to betray her "friends" before they betray her, because they always do. She finally found a crew that she can't bring herself to betray so she wants to sacrifice herself and die before they betray her. But Luffy finally convinces her that it really is Ride or Die this time, and Robin finally allows herself to utter her wish. You can see that moment visually as the darkness around her is swept away. Peak. One Piece.

[@darkenedpsynoid]

[@lucasberlitz2689]

Great scene and great reaction! A few people downplay the straw hats shooting the flag moment saying that they were already criminals so nothing changes for them, but in my view it's like the difference between being chased as regular criminal who killed a random person or commited robbery versus for being a full on terrorist who attacked one of the most important government institutions to save someone with potential to destroy the whole world. After this, their name will most likely become a priority on the government's blacklist. Definetly a true display of loyalty and friendship. That's truly a powerful and literal moment of "we will take on the whole world for you, so please just ask us for help and we'll have your back". Also, I love that even the "cowards" of the crew Usopp, Nami and Chopper are so ready to risk their lives for Robin. Truly beautiful moment for all the strawhats.

[@blackknight6757]

This is where One Piece became one of the best fictions

[@gebigeba1622]

the detail in how Robin character is built upon by looking at her interaction before and after this arc, you'll notice how oda really put into account her psychological issue towards people, like she only open up a little bit to luffy while not really to other strawhat, like only calling him name whilst nickname for other SH, it's subtle but it's there, see the change, the peak is here
