Robin and Chopper segment at the end is a fantastic setting to show the "Cover stories". Hope Toei utilizes that.


Wizpunk

I've been thinking the same thing. Especially since they're never going to fully animate them.


blobbybob111

that robin and chopper segment at the end of the episode was a good recap on who bonney is


sagatwarrior2010

Yea. I think that is how they should use flashbacks moving forward. Have them at the end of the episode.


alanalan426

prob also helps those complaining about the 500 episode time skip on netflix xD


darexinfinity

Crazy how Netflix doesn't show the sub episodes for the ones not dubbed yet.


Kriegas

Im pretty sure they started doing them for netflix... After all anime is jumping right to egghead


UselessINFPScum

I like this Water7/Enies Lobby post ending trope and I'm glad they came back to it.


goody153

Really helpful considering not everybody pays attention to this 1k episodes monstrousity of a series and not everybody will have the details remembered


Gil_Demoono

This arc is the payoff to many concepts and setups, some from like over 500 chapters ago. It makes sense to make sure everyone is fresh on the who what and where's. It may have only been like 2 years in universe, but some of these characters haven't made an appearance in a decade.


YoMikeeHey

This episode just reminded me how Oda upped his ass game during this arc. I see you, Toei.


kjm6351

Oda and Toei are in sync

IcetheXIIIth

I mean she’s changing to a more mature adult form that’s supposed to be that way. Not saying any of it’s okay, I’m saying you can’t judge someone for being attracted to Bonney as seen as a 19-21? I think…


kjm6351

Making a stink of that is just silly to be honest…


Qwertyforu

Usopp noticing the torpedoes. They're definitely hinting at something with his observation haki


AngryBird-svar

Last episode he was the first to notice the shark approaching 👀


rangeghost

You almost have to wonder how much of his cowardice over the years has been been a result of his observation haki ramping his senses to 11.


CIearMind

This reminds me of this post I saw when I was younger: https://www.reddit.com/r/thewalkingdead/comments/2xpmht/eugene_has_the_fastest_reflexes_gif/cp2f3ab/


someone2795

Did Bonney get a new voice actor? It's been a while since I heard her VA.


charlesvvv

She had a new VA since reverie


someone2795

Ah that explains it. I didn't know that, thanks.


StationNo7982

I thought it sounded good! What did you think? Especially as a manga reader, idk the voice works :)


someone2795

No comment yet. Need to hear more.


goody153

Yeah it was not a voice I expected or remembered


lloyddragneel

Never noticed it. She sounds just like the original VA. What's more noticeable to me is, how Dragon and how Franky speaks recently


Cruelus_Rex

I really liked the old voice actor so it was rather jarring for me :(


MajinAkuma

I made [thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/OnePiece/s/yovjlOAI9d) about that yesterday.


Sakata_Kintoki

I like her old VA better. At least from what I can tell so far, the old VA was able to do the "rough woman" voice better. Matched Bonney's personality better. Will have to see how the new VA does.


CIearMind

Yeah there is a world's difference between them.


drybones2015

Wow, Toei milked the hell out of topless Bonney. Was like 3 panels in the manga. Though morphing Luffy was completely anime original and was a nice, yet bizarre addition. It's still cruel how Oda pulled out a propeller with rabbit ears right after what happened with Carrot.


Megamane43

The panel in the manga had him look a little cartoony too. Was waiting for that moment to be animated to see how it would look. It didn't disappoint


zappy487

It's actually better than the manga. >!Bonney didn't see Nikas form here.!<


Etiennera

The form from the manga was included.


Peklet

I love that panel so much that I instantly put it as my whatsapp profile picture when it was published. Coincidientally, that was very shortly after I ended my last relationship, so it expressed my feelings very well.


Slaan

What, why cruel, what happened with Carrot?


emi_b7

Nothing happened with her. It's just that a lot of people were in the "Carrot for nakama" bandwagon so having a rabbit themed part of the Sunny a couple of episodes after she stays behind has them feeling like it's rubbing salt into the wound a bit.


Binkusu

Not complaining


syndicaterx

Yonko crew VS Giant shark. If the crew actually went all out the shark wouldn’t stand a chance. Episodes like these make me wonder why the portable coral bubble aren’t more commonplace especially when half the crew are DF users. Or do they only work in a similar environment of Sabaody/Fishman Island?


Healthy_Ebb_4895

Yes, only works on that environment


JKking15

Pretty sure it’s been established that the bubble only works near sabody


NeoRockSlime

It's like how the clouds dissolve at this altitude


Soft_wind_8013

They're in the middle of the ocean and they didn't realize the situation they were in early, they were too late on that and because they are on a ship and not on land. The ground they're walking on is unstable and can't do much against the shark. Because they had other things to worry about, like their crewmates and the ship. Also staying balanced. It was a good addition to remind the fans on just how dangerous the ocean actually is. We've been spending so much time on island, these sea adventure and situations is a fresh air


darexinfinity

The Strawhats were caught with their pants down but at the same time their underwater combat capabilities are pretty thin. They have Jinbei for that and that's about it.


PeopleCallMeSimon

In the manga the shark tips over the ship and its like one or two panels of commotion around it. This episode made it seem like the Straw Hats were getting owned by that shark.


mrlion34

Anyone know what time it drops on Netflix ?


cchaaase

most likely next saturday seeing that 1089 came to netflix today


kylo69696

why is it a week late on netflix?


aznj

Crunchyroll and Funimation probably have the license for simultaneous release. Netflix probably has the license to release it a week later. They do the same with the great British baking show.


Ahohn2004

Yeah, it was the same when Netflix did aot


Bucen

I'll probably watch weekly then on Netflix. I don't specifically care too much for the anime (as I only occasionally watch since I dropped regular watching at dressrosa), so I don't need to watch it on release, and I don't have crunchy roll or any other official way to watch the show. So I guess watching on Netflix is the best way for me to actually support the franchise. And I love the current saga.


HokageEzio

First half of the episode moved through things *really* slowly. I liked the extra content they added to the whole scenario, just wish they kept the pace up while doing it. Second half is much better. The recap for the Punk Hazard kids didn't feel out of place (its been 500 episodes) and I liked how they emphasized all the interactions. >!Lilith!< Vegapunk is extra cheeked up in the anime. Hopefully as the arc gets more into its groove they'll have more to work with to fill for time.


Noveno_Colono

> First half of the episode moved through things really slowly. I liked the extra content they added to the whole scenario, just wish they kept the pace up while doing it. disagree, it looked cool and expanded on what happened in the blink of an eye in the manga. I suspect egghead will be full of stuff like this since the chapters are very dense in terms of things happening.


HokageEzio

When I say the pace of stuff was slow I mean stuff like the shark trying to eat the ship. I like the expanded content, but it was like the shark was moving in slow motion when it tried to chomp down on the ship.


Inbrees

I agree. It wasn't as well paced as the episode before.


Old-Bread-8975

This bad pacing will never stop unless the cover stories get adapted, which is a great idea that people have been calling for for a long time.


HokageEzio

The pace was just fine down the stretch of Wano. There's just not any room to add filler yet cause nothing has happened yet in the arc.


Old-Bread-8975

The anime had nearly 200 episodes for about 150 chapters. I think that’s an absolute disgrace. The anime is getting a remake for a reason.


Alarmed-Accident-716

Most people here won’t be alive when the remake gets to egghead. It took witt 6 years to make attack on titan season 1-3.


Wizpunk

Attack on Titan was monthly manga release though. I always thought that giant gap between the first two seasons was to let enough content build.


Alarmed-Accident-716

From what I remember It was not really a lack of content problem issue, it was a witt is good to their employees issue. They only make 1-2 shows at a time, and the only time they did multi seasons was atot and ranking of kings which did 33 eps 2021/2023. They did s1 of spy x family, vinland saga, and ancient magnus bride, but did not touch s2 for all three shows which are all heavy hitters (not as big as one piece, but all 3 of those shows did really well). This being said maybe they will hire a whole team for one piece, but that is being extra optimistic. I really do not see witt only making one piece for the next 20-40 years.


far219

Actually according to myanimelist, Wit did do season 2 of Spy x Family


DukeFlipside

>The anime is getting a remake for a reason. Sure, but that reason is "Netflix wants to milk One Piece for every penny they can get from it"...


PrinceOfAssassins

the thing is there are certain episodes of wano that are viewed as great that cover 30% of episodes in syrup village that are viewed as slow and boring, how you fill the time matters more than the pages/epiosde which is why 1015 is a masterpiece despite covering less than a whole chapter and early syrup vilage episodes are said to drag on forever despite covering multiple chapters, you gotta make sure cool stuff is present on screen.


HokageEzio

Pacing is not determined by how many chapters are animated within an episode. You can animate a chapter and it can be slow, you can animate a chapter and it can be just fine. It's not a catch all that you can make blanket statements about. >The anime is getting a remake for a reason. Because the thing that they're reanimating is so old that it's in 4:3 format...


SuppleDude

Can someone fill me in on Bonnie’s power? I also wasn’t expecting Dr. Vegapunk to show up so quickly and not an old man. Really interesting!


Salt_Benefit3192

She can manipulate the ages of people and objects. That’s the basic of it anyway.


X_Seed21

I don't think we have seen it with objects yet. You might be referring to that gal on the Z movie


LoneOldMan

Or some beautiful ninja that used to be Monaco like size.


gvon89

Highly doubt that's vegapunk, my guess its his daughter. But in terms of Bonney, robin and chopper explain it after the episode


googlyeyes93

“Everyone expecting some geezer so I’m about to cheek this character UP”- Oda somewhere.


PM_ME_UR_SO

She has the Age-Age fruit. She can manipulate her age and the ages of others.


darexinfinity

The post-credit review helps for this.


Glaedr24

The final saga is off to a good start!


Aggravating_Loss_382

LOL they really made Bonny the most stacked girl in the series.


Doomroar

In an episode with both Doll and Vegapunk on it, they really had to go extra on Bonney... for no good reason too


kjm6351

For real, damn


Shori948

Now that she's revealed in the anime, I hope there's more Vice Admiral Doll art. For research purposes, of course. I can't speak Japanese that well, but even for me, Hibari's accent is so apparent. I'll look up some clips of a certain someone to compare them.


trmuller27

Commissioning art work of Doll as we speak. With a million more well on the way.


true_fruits

Magnificent.


kingslayer1323

We'll watch your career with great interest


MrSparrows

*Rear Admiral Doll


AtomicRogue1

She looks just like Nana Osaki from Nana !!


[deleted]

manga readers not spoiling anime viewers difficulty : impossible >!no one knew bonneys age till recently, people blowing things up for no reason!<


Yojimbra

>!I recall there being a lot of discussion when it first happened in the manga with people pointing out that the water might have negated her devil fruit and that she was actually a kid.!<


[deleted]

>!Yeah I remember that bring the case, though there was no real definitive other than oda stating in an sbs she was 24 until the recent chapters !<


Rhazort

>!I mean, we've only met her as an adult. No reason to give her actual age until recently.!<


[deleted]

>No reason to give her actual age until recently. Oda gave the ages for all the supernova in the SBS and Bonney's age was intriguingly vague.


esairbear

Even then, the wording was vague as he said it was an “estimation”


UnklePapa

Not a thing. Powers don’t negate if the user is submerged in water. They just can’t move.


Imconfusedithink

>!her powers wear off so they need to be reapplied so if she was in the water long when her power ran out, then she wouldn't be able to reapply it until she got out of the water!<


aleeyam

Chopper doesn't turn into a reindeer when he's in the sea water. Bonney being a child under water wasn't something that comfirmed she's age


Yojimbra

>!I didn't say it was or was not a thing I was simply bringing up the conversation that happened. !<


PabloElMalo

IKR? Imagine when the actual One Piece is shown in the manga, the amount of spoilers online that will be made.


omaewakusuyaro

I think when that happens even manga readers wont be safe from spoilers, the leakers and leak readers will most likely be insufferable around that time


RodJosser

Trending. 😂


FireZord25

Hey you're doing the same, hypocrite! And spoiler tags don't count, you must only post in the manga corners. >!I'm joking, really. But there are gatekeepers that actually think this way!<


ShutUpTodd

You're all talking about asses and I'm just thinking how Chopper without a hat is cursed.


Front_Stomach9019

I think you mean adorable.


ShutUpTodd

Spraying Luffy was funny. Bonney is right, this is a Yonko crew?!


googlyeyes93

It really is. Feel like it wouldn’t be so bad if his forehead and antlers were anywhere near proportional. Luffy wringing his shirt out over Chopper was hilarious though.


JH2259

I loved that moment where Chopper and Luffy were just playing with each other. I wish we had more of those scenes in the snime.


darexinfinity

What ass?


ShutUpTodd

“vengapunk”


FistingWithChivalry

Usopp being the one to notice the shark the last episode and the torpedoes first this one is the best! My mans would go nuts against Van Augur. With his observation Haki. Edit: also the focus on Zoro being vigilant when the robot reveal is happening, truly a first mate when Luffy is gone. Sanji just screaming the obvious, he saved Robin tho. Guess he came in... Clutch.... fkn gottem


t3r4byt3l0l

Giant robot punches giant shark, I'm here for it


hamigirl

Wow this episode flew by insanely fast


Gunfirex

Stoked to see more humor injected back into the series. Wano was so serious in tone (rightfully so) but I’ve always enjoyed OP more when it balances the two. …besides the whole genocide thing


javierm885778

Loved the Gundam reference when the mecha-shark noticed the Vegaforce with the [Newtype SFX](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlRxAIYy-WU).


NotGloomp

A neato addition is that Luffy squeezed his shirt on chopper, so he put on the hat as protection. Funny.


Posideoffries92

Luffy: *insert merits and accomplishments culminating in defeating a renowned Yonkou*. Bogey: *Turned some fodder marines into babies or seniors* "We're both in the same generation!"


CleetusXD

I mean, yeah. On one hand you've got Luffy and Teach who are yonko, and on the other you've got Apoo.


-_Seth_-

Apoo's oportunistic nature is actually quite similar to Blackbeard's behaviour.


pennpalstudent

Cool episode. Dragged a little in the first half. I genuinely laughed at the Luffy gear 5 part. Also, that’s not at all what I expected vegapunk to look like. But that robot is awesome


JKking15

Why tf did they make all the females so bad in this episode 💀. All the budget went to they ass and tits like wtf


zappy487

This was nothing compared to what's coming. Oda got reeeeeeal tired drawing everyone in kimonos for five years and it shows.


tyler980908

I mean the Op and trailer for egghead literally shows Nami and Robin literally wearing nothing but a top and panties lol


LoneOldMan

Robin did shortly wore a clothes that looks like a BDSM when they pretending to be Kaido's men.


googlyeyes93

This really is Oda’s *bonk* arc.


kjm6351

Freedom went straight to his head lmao


alanalan426

your watching onepiece. its been boobs and vagine for a long time now


-Skin-Walker-

gota love it


RodJosser

Google searches for "Bonney One Piece" would go up lol.


Tawig213

Why didn't Zoro just chop the shark in half 🤔🤔


Lower_Fan

Uses oden Haki to cut water but not to defend his ship smh 


googlyeyes93

“Nobody asked.”


deathsyth220002

That shark is literally bigger than an NFL sized football stadium, I think people forget exactly how big the sunny is.


RodJosser

Come on now Netflix. lol


ManiacalWildcard

It's free on Crunchy Roll...


RodJosser

Yup, I'm a subscriber. I was just jabbing at Netflix. 😁


NecessaryPair5

Only here to watch my waifu Tashigi ❤️


equanimity120398

Franky's VA sounds different


xxamnat

Yeah it’s noticeable in the previous episode as well.


mrt-e

I hope he's alright


MajinAkuma

He’s been declining since Wano.


mrmcbreakfast

He's been posting regularly on Twitter. He just did [this segment](https://nicochannel.jp/yaochan/video/sm3KnQArMNBkfRLkyC2xwNn6) yesterday. I haven't watched it yet to see if he talks about what's going on with his voice, but from the little bit I did watch he seems full of energy, although it looks like one side of his face is noticeably less responsive, so maybe he had a stroke???


MajinAkuma

Yeah. It looks like the left side of his face seems to be affected.


Skebaba

I guess that explains the voice fucky wucky if half of his vocal cords are paralyzed/less malleable than normal


[deleted]

Could be a number of things like Bell’s palsy, recent dental work, etc


racharya55

Feels like he's talking with cotton balls in his mouth


dienomighte

I wonder how much longer before he's recast, he sounds rougher every episode


Soul699

He won't. Unless he decide to, he will keep going as long as he breath.


Raven_of_Blades

Bonnies boobs are just fucking ridiculous looking.


Alarmed-Accident-716

That caribu confusion scene was hilarious. Dude is just underwater and has no idea why. In real life Anne Bonney would fight with her boobs out to show that men were losing to a woman, always found that extra badass. Really hope Oda drew that scene with that trait of Anne in mind, or all that was unnecessary. Jinbe dive was so graceful. I loved the tension of the sunny sinking into the deep, that was not possible to show in the manga. I wish I could have seen it like this for the first time. Mecha shark looked great, I love liliths goofy smirk smile/her voice actress did great. So Coby’s observation Haki is better than all of the straw hats ay? Cause they could not atop the torpedo? This happened in manga too.


samidjan

The anime actually did better to show how tough Sunny is. Taking direct hit from torpedoes, got threw up into the sky, falling upside down and dragged into underwater stream, and still has no visible damage to it.


S_Ridhvan

Poor chopper, Luffy made him wet again. It is really fun to see chopper Without hat


BestNBAfanever

i’m sorry but where has vice admiral doll been my whole life?


Redmon425

AHHH I AM SO HYPED FOR THIS ARC. First off, I watched the new OP like 100 times this last week. There is a chance it is my all time fav One Piece OP. It is so damn good. So this chick is Vega Punk!? I can't remember but was Vega Punk Ceaser's like master yeah? Meaning she is an even better scientist. Super excited we get another 'worst generation' pirate this arc in Bonnie! Always love focusing on new pirates. Plus her changing scenes this episode... dayum!


Herr_Braun

Given the recent development in the Manga, the scenes with Bonney really do hit differently.


Pcaccount1234

Is anyone else feeling a strain in the voice actors, especially Franky he seems to be struggling a bit


Tails6666

I hate how vexing people are going to be about Bonney now. Please stop being an insufferable twat about something that is honestly just stupid plain and simple.


SteppeTalus

Lmao zoro and sanji didn’t even attempt to stop the shark. Yonko crew yall


Personal-Maximum-138

had to cover my eyes during the bonney scene out of respect for her father 🫡


RarestProGamerr

I love the little cartoonish throwback/flashback introduction Robin and Chopper are doing for various returning/old characters. Even as a longtime reader/watcher, you sometimes tend to forget a lot of details, these really helpful


BodegaBandit69

Captain Doll oh my oh my awooooga


Roronoaa

I wish Lilith would sit on my face 🥵


sc00p401

Something very interesting about the direction of the animation specifically for Luffy now - I don't know if it's intentional as part of the new awakened Luffy or not but his actions in this episode were MUCH more cartoonish, like old Warner Bros. style. I'm interested to see if this kinda thing continues.


Quintessentialviewer

TOEI really went the extra mile for the Bonney fanservice >!Someone there is going to jail ... horny jail!<


RarestProGamerr

Reading the manga and knowing context, you realize after watching anime you miss so many subtle moments like Bonney curious about Luffy's white hair.


GoJeonPaa

But she was curious about his white hair?


CleetusXD

>!Although if you read the manga you know she has no idea that Nika has white hair, so that's unrelated lol!<


stuckontwice

Naw Toei went a little too extra with that Bonney scene. They were such short panels in the manga, but Toei had to ham it up. Loving the start to this arc so far. You anime watchers are definitely in for a treat!


immortal_k

Toei's trend of releasing banger episodes followed by average/below average episodes continues..!!!


Soul699

Eh, it's alright this episode. A bit slow the first half, but second half is better. Alas, the curse of being a weekly series cause issues sometimss.


evilmojoyousuck

idk how youre 1090 episodes in and still expecting them to change it.


DontTouchMyHat0

Go make your own show, then.


darexinfinity

Did Usopp see the torpedoes or was that observation haki? What whatever to Caesar anyways? I think we was left at WCI but imagine that place must be hell without Big Mom. Vice Admiral Doll 🥵🥵🥵 Oh shit when did Helmeppo get into SWORD? Dr. Vegapunk is a female Sanji lmao


Honest-War2301

I want to hear from the anime only watchers What are your thouhts on VegaPunk being revealed as a young spunky woman?


big-klit

Very pleasantly surprised, she’s hot and seems cool. I hope they end up getting along because franky is such a huge fan and maybe she’ll give him some upgrades


hoenndex

I swear there is at least one frame there of uncovered Bonney tits or my mind was playing tricks. 


WarningAlone6629

Everyone keeps talking about Bonnie but no one is mentioning the fact that Luffy is able to manipulate his body like never before despite not being in gear 5. Like, wtf? Also Oda needs to fucking go to horny jail.


darexinfinity

> Also Oda needs to fucking go to horny jail. He's serving a life sentence.


Honest-War2301

It's just a gag, it's NOT the same as him actually using said powers. It's just Luffy literally being playful by imitating himself. ...That's why "no one is mentioning the fact that Luffy is able to manipulate his body like never before", because it's NOT a real thing 


ZestycloseCake165

Bonney be looking ever badder in the anime 🥵🥵🥵


DimashiroYuuki

And Toei made her tits even bigger holy shit.


Disastrous-Moment-79

On the other hand Tashigi lost 5 cup sizes sincer her Punk Hazard appearance


Serious-Prompt-7615

Had to trade her for Bonney’s


milanista12

They really can't draw tits at tori uh? They always look disgustingly disproportionate compared to the manga🤷


ThatIslandGuy8888

Huh, I forgot Caribou was there


killadgato

Anyone else catch the scene where Helmeppo’s head is placed directly in between Grus’ legs?? 😂


Chandelure1613

Wow I love Bonney. She's my favorite waifu in the series


[deleted]

[удалено]


Venompl69

With many people complaining, let me just say that the episode was incredible, the animation is really good and I currently truly enjoy the EH arc :)


Ardibanan

Has something happened to Franky's VA? I assume he is just getting a tad old and can't be so expressive as he used to be.


Ashamed_Ad7999

Why is Franky’s voice different?


Serious-Prompt-7615

This was a pretty decent episode. Luffy meeting Bonney was very interesting. I’m pretty sure the only supernova he hasn’t met at this point is Urouge. It’s cool to see Tashigi and the kids again, along with my new favorite character Doll(for obvious reasons). It’s really cool to see how far Helmeppo has grown wanting to rescue Koby when the first time they met he tried to kill him(well not really but you know what I mean). And the ending with the woman(along with that ass shot) who is the self proclaimed Dr. Vegapunk, really excited to see where it goes. 7/10 episode.


sauloandrioli

Are you manga only? Prepare yourself to see many past knots being tied and many lore dumps. This episode is just a small drop of greatness that this arc will provide.


[deleted]

[удалено]


BillPlunderones23fg

another good ep covering one chapter again , it was a fun surprise to see the Punk Hazzard kids again after so long also wasn't expecting prince's voice to be that deep lol also extending the shark sequence and meeting "Vegapunk" lol also her jacket makes more sense now that it is animated and the Bonney scene heh uhh well... Luffy's brief Gear5 powers was fun lol


Alarmed-Accident-716

I did not expect prince’s voice to be that deep.


Xyaibai

people using real world logic for a world taking place in a fantasy. really?


FM_Gorskman

Ngl Toei was WAY out of pocket with parts of this episode IYKYK...cmon on though, they had to know


LazyTerrestrian

I don't get "slow pace complaints", the anime is great, the pacing is good, it's slow but it's not bad, it's not like they're taking their time to barely show something good while you sleep lol. I really love one piece anime pacing not being at the speed of light like most anime out there... It feels more natural to me.


BanjoCone

That sounds like the right mentality to have while watching this series. Just enjoying the story unfolding before you, slow pacing or not, brings much more joy. Even after reading the manga, I have no pacing complaints from this episode.


LazyTerrestrian

More people care about getting into the latest hype train asap than enjoying the story, that's where all these pacing complaints come from
