First Thoughts
Are you ready for some hot Whitebeard and Ace action? Well this episode had a lot of it here! This episode covered the rocky start that Whitebeard and Ace's relationship had but as we saw it turned out to be completely fine as it blossomed into a loving relationship. 

This wasn't a boring episode and that is saying a lot since most of it was a flashback episode. Though my favorite part was the Shanks part since it is always fun to see Shanks.

What else was awesome about this episode? Whitebeard when it started to punch the air. QUAKEPUNCH! Too soon? Oh well but it is still cool to see Whitebeard do that.

You know, these episode titles have lately been very mistitled. We did get some fighting in this episode between Luffy and Blackbeard but it wasn't much. Just two minutes of punches and then we got flashbacks and talking. A mostly serious episode but I wish we could move a bit faster though.

Got to say that Buggy and Mr. 3 really saved the episode for me. Took us out of this little thing of watching Luffy and Blackbeard just stare each other down. Now that was funny.

This is a short First Thoughts. I blame the essay I have to do....Grr!

First Thoughts
You know. I was going to put Magellan on the 'throne' but there is a certain charm to Luffy picking his nose for bloody boogers. Don't know what that is but nice to know that Luffy is working on high priority items in times like these.

Still what a dark and grim episode right? Well the beginning of the episode was grim looking. People falling into pits of fire and boiling blood was all over the place for half of he first half of the episode. There was a lot of funny parts though that really help balance out the episode but when I look back at the episode. The funny parts came before the grim parts so I guess the grim was to balance out the happy. Wow...nice. Glad we have Opening 12 to raise my hopes before watching this episode.

Well I am welcoming the return of Mr. 2! haha This was a very funny episode. I mean the parts that didn't involve Magellen and Sadi-chan but it was funny. I was surprised that we got some stuff involving Magellen and Sadi-chan but that is all cool. It helped build the environment and stuff.

To tell the truth I was kind of hoping there wasn't going to be a new episode so I could work on other things but oh well. This was a good episode and very enjoyable.

First Thoughts
CROCODILE! Crocodile was in this episode! I mean we never saw his whole body but we heard his face! Saw his pretty face! And we saw his hook! His hook! Oh my gosh! Boy was it cool to see good old Crocodile. Well isn't exactly good but you get what I mean. Just so awesome to see Crocodile again. I am so excited to see more of Crocodile (and the rest of his body) in the anime soon.

The episode overall was cool to see since it was funny to see Luffy, Buggy and Mr. 3 in their antics. haha Somehow I think this episode was a bit padded since I was surprise to see where we were at half way though the episode. I love the image above though. haha Chibi Luffy, Buggy and Mr. 3. Love those moments in the episode.

I think that is all that matters for now. haha
