Anime: Straw Hat Reunion Arc- Episode 520

Cool down with a new episode of One Piece! Watch it on OnePieceOfficial.com!

First Thoughts
Brook has really been playing up the rock star personality. I guess that when you are a rock star, dumping a bottle of water on yourself is normal. This must have been portrayed in a different show but I can't remember where. Either way, this was clearly a Brook episode.

This episode had other noteworthy moments but Brook was the focal point. You did see a scene featuring Caribou’s brutality and some awesome moments with Franky but those moments weren’t the first things I remembered about this episode.

Whatever the reason, Brook the Rock Star was the reason why we watched this episode.

Thoughts

This was a great episode to watch the first time through. Every scene felt meaningful and added another layer of depth to the characters that were focused on in this episode.

Then I had a second viewing of this episode. It was not as fun to watch and I wanted to skip to the highlights. This does not occur often when I re-watch episodes. Maybe it is because I know that cool things are in store very soon and that all of this is just set up.

The revelation at the end of the episode had the same impact through both viewing. I will get to that later in the post.

Also a reminder, next week is the premiere of Opening 15, We Go.

First Thoughts 
This episode had a lot of cool things to look at. Zoro himself is cool to watch and add a bit of Mihawk and Perona you have a party! Then we have Brook who is always a riot.

To tell the truth, I so really enjoyed watching this episode the first time around but it does not seem to do well in reruns. Either way it was a fun episode to watch as we get bits of information here and there via Mihawk.

Question Corner: How to Kill Brook?

There are many unique and interesting Devil Fruit abilities in the One Piece world. You have one that can make a person into rubber while others can grant a person to become lava and there is even one that allows the user to become a giraffe. Still one of the strangest powers seems to be Brook's Yomi Yomi ability.

First Thoughts
So after a bit of a break from blogging about the anime, I am back....I am sorry. I promise that Sora will be back next week.

This was some episode with the constant running around with Zoro and the pantyshots for Brook. Though I have to say that the Zoro part had something of fanservice from Perona with all the cleavage shots she was giving us. Maybe I was the only one that notice it since I like Perona but there was a good lot of them. There was enough of it where I had to conduct an 'investigation' for it. Due to the time limit, the investigation wasn't through but detectives have to do with what they are given. I can just hope that maybe in the future we can revisit Zoro's predicament in order to continue this investigation.

First Thoughts 
Well umm...Hmm...My first thoughts....Well I knew it was going to be funny. I mean the Brook part at least. The Zoro part I knew I was going to laugh but not as much as the Brook part. There was Perona but I knew that she would be doing something to Zoro but wasn't sure what. Still my money was on Brook being the funniest part since well...it is Brook. He kind of more comic relief right now then anybody else in the crew.

Though I had no idea on the ending. Totally didn't see that one coming.

Well yeah. My First Thoughts for this episode are lame. Either I am tired out from school today or just not much on first thoughts on this episode. Maybe the rest of the post will be better.
