Anime: Marineford Arc- Episode 477

Don't Struggle with watching One Piece! What it first on OnePieceOfficial.com!

First Thoughts 
Not much on the first thoughts for this episode. This episode had a lot moments that were good like the beginning and the end...I think...I don't have much to say off the top of my head right now.

I do have the feeling that the animators didn't do something to that is kind of important. Then I went to look at my copies of Shonen Jump to find out that what I was thinking was in a different chapter that is later on.

So let get to the meat of the post and hope that Mikey has more to say there.

Anime: Marineford Arc- Episode 459

Be one of many! Watch One Piece only at OnePieceOfficial.com!

First Thoughts
Here we are. The main HQ of the Marines. The place where the best of the best Marines gather. We have only seen bits of Marineford like from the time where Luffy receive his first bounty and recently as we watch Sengoku prepare for the execution of Ace.

Still this episode marks not only the beginning of possibly one of the most epic story arcs in One Piece but the premiere of Opening 13, One Day. A very fitting opening seeing that all the things that we see happening here only happen in one day. If you have friends that been out of One Piece for a while then this is the time to get them back in. Tell them to watch Episode 457 and 458 so they will get a small recap of the events that are important to know for this arc and then get them started on this episode. After that, hang in for the ride of your life as we watch the epic events of this arc unfold in just one day.

Mikey's Note: This post is very image heavy due the amount of screencaps taken from the Opening 13. 

Manga: Chapter 0 (Read at Own Risk)

Read at Own Risk

First off, I would like to say to read this post at your own risk. There isn't anything super spoiler-ish. If anything it adds more to the One Piece world and gives us some insight on our awesome characters. Well worth reading if you just follow the anime. Provides a lot of back information on Movie 10.

Still an awesome read. Really good. I don't know how to describe this in just such a short paragraph. Though maybe I am trying to rush this post since it is Thanksgiving and my stomach is hungry. Nonetheless, join me as we look at the One Piece world from over twenty years ago!

Anime: Little East Blue Arc- Episode 426

First Thoughts
Welcome to Little East Blue! Where people from the East Blue some how got their butts over here. No idea now but oh well. Why question the One Piece world. It is crazy after all.

"You are all idiots" is what I kept telling myself throughout this episode. Though that usually happens a lot when I see the filler episodes and well....most episodes that are not action intense. haha

This was an interesting episode. It kind of reminded me of Apis and those episodes back when the crew got into the Grand Line or whatever. Though this time around the townsfolk were just there or background. This time the townsfolk were active and doing something. At least they talked and were friendly with the StrawHats. haha
