Recaps vary, but as of episode 647, it was one minute long, and the episode started after less than four minutes, which means we had almost 20 minutes of anime.

long overdue reply, lol

I was just covering all the bases.

However the fact that One Piece doesn't have an ED already say something about how much time they're already taking up and dragging it out.

And as said by others, 6~8 mins long OP+intro+review... lol... longest I've ever seen. (in certain episodes)

Most other Anime's OP only takes up to 2 mins Tops and review 1 min tops.

Also, you did not count in the "dragging" which others states later after our posts.
Those itself makes the anime where you could do things in 5 mins into 20+ mins long.
So no... actual anime plot progression is less than 10 mins each episode.

Which the above result in them adding in Fillers now too, because they couldn't drag it out even longer.
Else it would be as I said, 5 mins of "actual anime"... lol

Plus, think what it'll be like if they actually added in ED like all other anime out there...

but other animes beat us over the head with week after week of horrible filler (with rare exception). i would rather have shorter episodes than sit through months of garbage

I had a feeling Sanji was going to show up, and he did. That was an awesome entrance, but the music just did not feel right. It seems like the staff for the show does not even care anymore. It's like, they are just going through the motions.

ookamigirl · 2014-07-20, 06:48

World Government history lesson.
Finally, Giolla defeated hands down.
I'm so glad they put an end to her weird art.
She was the most annoying character ever.
And there they go again... from one trouble to the next..
Doflamingo pulled a fast one on Straw Hats.
Never trust a guy like that!
D block battle continues.
Cavendish really likes the attention..
Law was impressive.
Sanji to the rescue!
Good episode.

i'm sure they care, but there is clearly preferential treatment given to certain episodes. considering this one was shorter than usual (long intro) and the animation was particularly lackluster, i'm assuming this was one of those episodes they just went through the motions on like you said. but i'm sure good ones will be coming where they put more effort into the edit and animations. i dont see how the studio can keep the highest quality when there's no down time

Yeah the music really ruined Sanji's entrance. I thought the animation was decent enough for it, just needed the right score to go along with it.

AntonKutovoi · 2014-07-22, 09:37

Whoa, did they just used Tetsuya Kakihara for a filler episodic character ?

In Japan watching this on sundays.

FINALLY all caught up with the story.

Meh, mixed feeling. Dressrosa on it's own is kinda bloated (interesting sure but meh kinda drawn out) but watching Doflamingo is just too much fun (dudes so gangsta...LITERALLY).

Still though thank god I can get Jump and read the junk because this one chapter a week deal is sooooooooooo slow.

Really like Rikiya Koyama as the toy soldier tho and as annoying as Bartolomeo is, Shotarow Morikubo makes him fairly funny.

Perona sama · 2014-08-06, 04:14

Goilla art may not like by many but I think the df itself is strong.

Wow, after the latest episode, I could only feel rage. Drag queen Doflamingo is the most evil bastard in One Piece. He really needs to die in the most horrific way possible, but considering how the Straw Hat's opponents usually end up surviving, I don't think that will happen. However, maybe one of the 4 emperors will kill him. While they are at it, maybe they can also get rid of the other unforgivable characters, Akainu and Blackbeard (Marshall D. Teach).

Edit:

Wait, they mention that with Monet coming, things started to change. However, during the how flashback scene, Monet was nowhere to be found. Are they even going to elaborate on what she did, or did they just throw in her name to emphasize her influence?

ookamigirl · 2014-08-31, 05:51

That Bartolomeo is just too emotional..
Dressrosa's past finally revealed!
Tin soldier (Rebecca's dad) told the story.
Of course Doflamingo had to ruin 800 years without wars..
He ruined the country through calculated threats/demands/manipulation.
That bastard so deserves to die!
He is pure evil.

Mister Twit · 2014-09-07, 03:27

For a big revelation, this episode was kind of weak. I'm hoping that tin soldier's forgotten memories will make it more interesting, but what's up with this story he's supposedly telling having absolutely nothing to do with him or Rebecca?

And then it ended in such a weird spot. "Where's Zoro? Oh there he is. Hey Zoro! Kin'emon!" TO BE CONTINUED...

Okayyy... see, if they wanted to end the episode with impact they should have just stopped 30 seconds earlier, like right here:

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

I mean to my knowledge that's the first time Robin has ever made a face anything like that. It's terrifying.

thundrakkon · 2014-09-07, 05:13

I'm a little curious why the Toy Soldier was not shown at all during the flashback. He knows he is Rebecca's father, yet there were no indications of it in the story. However, the revelation that Violet is the princess of the kingdom is quite something. If Sanji really catches her heart, he can end up as royalty someday. I actually like that for him.

As for Doflamingo, he is lowest scum of all scum in One Piece, yet I'm sure there are real people who will idolize him. I know most named characters who are bad guys do not die in this series, but he is one that actually deserves it (and Akainu).

He sure gave the audience a piece of his mind. Still, he can be naive as well. Block D fight has begun.. Law vs Doflamingo! Kinda felt sorry for Law. I seriously thought he was stronger than that. Guess Doflamingo is the bigger monster after all. #653 Spoiler for plot: Surprised how much of a fair guy that Issho is. I'm liking Doflamingo less and less. Oh man, not that crazy Giolla art lady again facepalm Watching them just hurt my eyes. Getting rid of her can't come soon enough! Really can't stand watching all the artistic madness. Sunny sure can pack a punch! Impressive. __________________ My Blog --> ookami Last edited by ookamigirl; 2014-07-13 at 04:10.

It was like Doflamingo was playing with him. Luckily Law interfered! But that didn't discourage Doflamingo.. Double the trouble. Doflamingo from one side & flying Marines from the other. Rebecca actually knows how to fight. Didn't expect that. Still, that Block D fight just can't seem to finish. Interesting episode. __________________ My Blog --> ookami

ookamigirl Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2011	#656 Spoiler for plot: Law vs Doflamingo! That was one epic fight. I'm glad the Straw Hats managed to escape. Brook was acting a bit wackier then usual. Momo was worried sick about Kanjuro. Sanji was up to his old tricks, thinking about Violet. Bartolomeo was totally ROFL with his idolizing of Zoro. Rebecca proved to be quite resourceful. There is still some hope left. __________________ My Blog --> ookami

ookamigirl Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2011	#657 Spoiler for plot: Bartolomeo is definitely Straw Hats' biggest fan ^^ Damn, they sure treat losers as garbage.. Didn't expect they just dump them in some hole. Rebecca was doing fine & then got into some trouble. Luckily Agilia came to her rescue. That Bartolomeo sure can make me laugh with his emotional response. #658 Spoiler for plot: OMG Bartolomeo facepalm Damn, his view of Luffy is just too bishounen. He's worse than any fan girl.. The fighters junkyard is just too cruel. Doflamingo sure is a heartless bastard. Even the former King is there. I thought he was dead.. There are some pretty strong guys there yet they can't get out. Wonder how will they escape that place. So they are using the losers to turn them into toys! Damn, what a cruel fate. Wonder how they do it though.. Seems like King Riku is loved by his people. He's not the bad guy they paint him to be. Doflamingo & his minions are the true bad guys! __________________ My Blog --> ookami Last edited by ookamigirl; 2014-08-24 at 05:57.
