Anime: Post Marineford Arc- Episode 511

Be cool like Raleigh! Watch One Piece on OnePieceOfficial.com!

First Thoughts
Alright Rayleigh. Alright. You are cool now. You are cool. You used to be some old dude for whom I did not care much. Still, if you are going to shoot bullets at cannonballs and the cannonballs explode in midair, then you have my seal of approval. This little moment made me a believer in Rayleigh.

This episode is proof that the anime production can introduce entertaining filler material. I never really had a problem with filler material. As long as the material is not outlandish or it does not last too long, then it is okay. One Piece seems to avoid extraneous filler material, which is positive for the continued appeal of the series. In this case the material expanded upon the manga’s depicted plot .

Also we got to see Rayleigh do cool things. That is always nice.

Anime: No New Episode

Big announcement! You can watch new One Piece episodes at OnePieceOfficial.com!

Though there is no new episode this week! This is all because there is some sort of special programming happening during the time slot for One Piece. Suppose to be something special or such that isn't One Piece.

Anime: Special Retrospective Pre Marineford Arc- Episode 457

For soothless nights and stressless dreams, watch One Piece at OnePieceOfficial.com

First Thoughts

Hey y'all! Its my first Anime recap and I am pumped! Mikey shall be doing the manga recap for this week and hopefully the normal cast roles shall be restored pretty soon.

There wasn't anything too special or unique about this episode, its your standard recap filler episode but the fact that this recap is integral to the current situation and features some of the best arcs/episodes in the series so far but admittingly because of the fact that they placed full scenes of these makes the episode drag a little bit, but heck at least its GOOD filler.

Anime: Impel Down Arc- Episode 452

Shine! Because you can watch One Piece on OnePieceOfficial.com!

First Thoughts
Did I say last week was the last episode of the Impel Down arc? Meh...Forgot that an arc doesn't end until we have the party which was in this episode. Also it helps in the naming of the arcs for the blog post. haha Don't want to say this is part of Marineford then change the arc name for the post in the next anime post. Yay for laziness!

This was a good episode. It wasn't the super best episode that we have seen but the episode was good at what it was suppose to do. It was suppose to keep us entertain until we get to Marineford for whatever awesome will happen there. Though there was this one part in the episode that I know was too dragged out and I am sure everybody else notice it too.

Another thing about this episode is all the Pandaman that we got. It is usually hard to spot the black and white faced man but he was just all over the place. I am guessing the animators wanted to make up for all the times they may have forgotten about him or just wanted to go crazy with the Pandaman-ness.
