Luffy can really be dense sometimes... ^^"
The story about the boy-dragon was interesting. Looks like the man-made dragon fruit is not something you would want to eat. Not much was going on action-wise... They only showed a few seconds of the fight I was really wanted to see.

Yeah, I was really confused as to why Zoro did not attack Monet. He might truly have issues fighting with women, but I can't remember him be merciful towards women at any point. However, I can only remember Luffy as the only guy in Straw Hats hitting women, while it is usually Nami and Robin taking care of other female opponents.
Also, Sanji will be no help in this. He might end up defending Monet.

Again with the kids and candy.
Luffy and the dragon kid were thrown in as well. Zoro's fight was nice to watch. The only thing that bothered me the most was it kept getting interrupted to show what other characters were doing. This seems to be happening more and more often and it's starting to annoy me. Wish they'd show us more of Smoker vs Vergo...

It's probably because the first available versions are LQ crunchyroll rips and the pace of the anime has been rather slow lately. Instead of "rushing through the main story and adding filler", like the Naruto anime does, One Piece takes the "stretch the main story as much as possible and only add very few fillers"-approach. It is also possible that the One Piece anime is not as popular as the manga in the western audiences, so that may be another reason.

It's actually a shame that the anime hasn't done any filler arcs in between arcs aside from the odd couple of episodes due to the movie, because One Piece filler arcs are usually pretty good. I've always been against filler arcs in anime, but One Piece is one of the few anime that have filler I like almost as much as some of the canon arcs. |

I do kind of wish One Piece would either do a big filler arc to space things out or go the Fairy Tail approach of actually just taking a long break. Stretching the material too much can just be painful to watch.
Spoiler for Ep613:

But to be honest, the (snail) pace at which the anime is progressing and (Ferrari) pace at which the manga is rushing, There really does not seem the need for a long filler arc. and i just had to sign of with SHURORORORO (the most epic-ally sinister laugh since crocodile) |
