- The jig is up. That Ringo Daimyo doesn't look like Zoro at all.
- Higurashi having two burning candles attached to her forehead is a red flag you're dealing with crazy.
- This woman dances and laughs one minute then cries with tears the next.
She's a master manipulator and Orochi bought her twisted logic.
- Feeding Orochi a Mythical Zoan was a waste in retrospect. He didn't need that power to acquire the throne and he remained a non-fighter his entire life.
- Great new piece featuring Semimaru's instrument as Orochi thieves.
- Orochi the medicine maker probably just poisoned Sukiyaki, fitting of a snake to resort to venom.
- The animals are actually running because the legend Admiral Kitsune is using his unconscious haki
- One year later, I still don't know who the three Roger pirates taken down by Gan Modoki were. R.I.P these original fodder designs.
- Roger is just worried Gaban can't fight without his glasses. Such a nice boss.
- "Yo Samurai" and then he blows you away and deforests the island.
What a damn strong impression to give a man.
- I love that Whitebeard is jumping through the trees and attacks Roger from the sky. Pops finally enjoying himself.
- ABSOLUTE POWER.
The landscape around them is warping and Oden has to dig his sword into the ground to hang on, how did this island even survive.
A lot of praise for just how strong and charismatic Roger's introduction was this episode. I love the way he talks to his men and laughs at Oden, his VA was great and Oden's just keeps getting better as he matches his age. The aura effects were toned down this episode compared to the usual, even though haki aura radiates from the blades in the manga, so I very much appreciate that they held back. It's wild to see that next episode also features intense fighting and probably another Roger and WB clash. We're eating good this month.
