damn the new ep is good! i love the zoro and sanji banter (as usual). those two never fail to crack me up! they added a few more lines and scenes but it's still hilarious!
sanji: "marines. come. we. ship. run..." zoro: "okay. you. later. slash..." LOL luffy using haki and gear second without much fuss is epic!

Now that was a good episode. Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji quickly smashing up those Pacifistas. Though think they could have taken some of the time spent on the fakes and used it on the quick beatdown.
The Sanji and Zoro banter is good to have back. Neither one had a relaxing training trip. In terms of the timeskip looks the results are kind of mixed. Franky is just , Usopp is good, Nami and Robin are naturally good , Sanji is fine, not a fan of the scar over the eye with Zoro but could be worse, Luffy is good, Chopper is fine too. Really, they didn't do too bad overall. Now they can all meet up and we can get going again. The quick little fight was a good example of how far ahead they are compared to before they got scattered. Back then they needed to go all-out and triple team even one of those things just to take it down.

Which brings me to another point. Will we ever know why Kuma gave up his body to be turned into a cyborg? He mentioned he made a deal, but that has yet to be known yet. I guess we will find out whenever they decide to show an arc with the much talked about but never seen Vegapunk.

On the other hand, while their skills would get better, their bodies won't get better with age. Zoro is now 21, and is one of the eldest non-skeleton, non-cyborg, crew members. Shanks is closing in on 40, Mihawk is in his mid 40s, Ivankov is probably older than that - probably old enough to be Luffy's dad. In real life, pirates were kinda like NFL players, most don't stay active in their 40s

I just noticed that the Coribou brother with the green hair has a reptile on his head and not hair. Well it looks like one anyways.. LOL
I kinda like how the little clip of commercial half break shows the order of the Mugiwara no Ichimi arrival to Sabaody Archipelago, well the order they were reintroduced anyways.

Finally after 2 years all the Straw Hats are together and have set sail! Like how everyone helped them to escape. At least we know now how Zoro was able to come in first. Sanji's torture throughout was great.

Yes, that was quite a funny episode.
One thing I notice, for more Zoro and Rayleigh comparisons, is that they both have slashes over one of their eye. Rayleigh has a slash on his right eye, while Zoro has a slash on left eye. Also, Raleigh was using a sword. I'm not sure if the mangaka is doing this intentionally or not, but there are so many little hints. I'm glad to finally see the crew together. Sanji should have died with all the blood loss. I can't wait to see how he responds when he finds out that Boa is Luffy's "girlfriend".

Sanji steals the episode for me. There are so many awesome moments to come regarding this humour, and you could say it's one of the main reason why i'm watching the adaptation at this point.

Rayleigh totally rules!
Thriller Bark & her ghosts ^^ Finally, everyone's back together! Sanji was just hilarious!! It was great how the friends they made in the past 2 years helped them to reunite & escape. New & improved ship was pretty impressive too. Awesome episode!!!

Oh, I almost forgot about all the Perona action this episode. It seems she got really attached to Zoro during the time they spent together. Heck, Zoro has spent more time with Perona (2 years) than he has spent with Luffy (less than 1 year) and the crew. It is definitely raising huge flags for Zoro and Perona. Also, it seems like she became a lot more powerful during the past 2 years as well. She could take out an army, almost.

I really liked that scene with Zoro and Perona haha. They didn't put much emphasis on that in the manga, but in this episode of the anime they definitely did. Seems like she's really going to miss him haha. He's the only character where he has these side relationships that keep getting hinted at, but they take forever to progress lolol but kind of lame that it's probably going to be the last time we'll be seeing her for awhile at least. Hoping they'll bring her back in later on though Quote:
