shlumlord

you guys are seriously my favourite reactors, man I hope you would watch blue lock in the near future. The pause when the scene cuts to Magellan taking his business 😂😂😂

Liza

i love honest review that's why i keep watching them and sub patreon, not glazing it doesn't mean they hate it yall.. 😭 my first time watch this arc was around 10 years ago and i still remember how im tired watching mr 3 and buggy gag and skipped some of it, after i caught up i read the manga from start and realised toei ruinned some of arcs fr

sakeniku

What time do they usually drop?

Pademi

early drop 🙏

farkzzy

Love the reactions and hot takes. I think you guys will definitely like the next batch of episodes

EpicGamerZ

Also I love when you guys share "hot-takes" or opinions that might not agree with the majority. We're all here for your genuine reactions & I hate to see reactors lie for views, so please keep sharing your honest takes!! It also makes me excited to see how your opinions might evolve over time

Kylie M

Great week, great reaction. Impel down can definitely drag but it has some crucial lore drops and world building - the likes of which we haven't really seen in previous arcs. Personally a lot of draw to this arc is the uniqueness of having Luffy solo an adventure; mans is basically causing a commotion in the world's most epic prison all on his own

Kylie

impel down definitly is overhyped it drags on and on

Pymos

These were some of my fav few episodes the first time watching. I cried like a baby lol

You saw?😂

McKay Carter

I wish people would stop hyping up upcoming arcs so much😭It's fine to like it, but not to the extent of glazing the next 100 eps 💀I remember when I watched Impel down for the first time, I definitely wanted to snooze a couple of times but overall I still really like Impel down. I also think a lot of people, me included binged these episodes at once so the Buggy/Mr.3 gags just blends together and doesn't feel as constant as they actually are. The thing is...unfortunately Toei lingers or adds filler on the biggest gripes you guys and everyone has with the anime. We don't get nearly as much Hannyabal or Buggy/Mr.3 in the manga. But that's why I don't think anyone can really be upset with the takes on Impel Down not being great, cause they way you're consuming the show is through the anime, 2 eps per watch session. That's gonna make for a different experience with the show, and that's fine!

Janice W

I totally feel you guys, I find this probably my least favorite arc in the show despite a lot of people liking it.

Juu

Like how yall are honest on what you think about the arcs. Like Mckay isnt a fan of the Buggy and Mr.3 and i kinda agree would be better if they made thoses scenes shorter/quicker. Cannon doesnt care about Jinbe, and the 3 of yall feel the arc is here and there with moments. I havent watched this arc for a while maybe cause im watching the reaction lowkey enjoying it much more this time around but thank yall for the grind!

Donduh343

This arc def has some slower/fillerish episodes like some do, but all together pretty good & sets up for later episodes. I remember skipping some parts the first time I watched it (mainly during these past episodes). You’ll know when it’s abt to get good tho! I think some of the overkill jokes kill some of the anticipation for the next watch so def get the takes.

Taylor

Wow that’s crazy

I did say in was in my top 5 in replies of a couple of comments at the start of the arc but I was purposely not outright hyping it up to them for their own experience. Which is what we should always be doing lol

Monkey D. Jack

I also didn't care about Jimbe when he was first introduced.

Darlyn Lopez

Impel down from now on is really good. The first half was slow, but I think you guys will enjoy the rest of this arc !!

Maya 🌱

ivankov has a big head due to his devil fruit; increase in growth hormone leads to acromegaly(big head/jaw). So we can assume that hes been experimenting with his own hormones to make himself a super soldier. Also, i like this arc lol, i cant call it peak but i find it so funny lol. lots of hind sight lore drops too. this being said, i also think that thriller bark was hilarious lmao. youve gotta love OP for the journey, not every episode is gonna be peak, but they will 100% have a 10/10 epsidoe somewhere along the way

Tell me if I'm tripping or not but when they started Impel Down, no one was hyping it up like crazy in the comments and the guys mention that in the reaction video as well. It was after that time I started to see people say how much they liked the arc

Nanami's Wife

What is this pic😂

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

Maybe it had tons of likes or something because I remember that glaze very clearly

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

It's like that with every anime. Some people just won't budge on their opinion. For me One Piece was kinda a nice show but I could never put it even in my top 10 because of the pacing and like genuinely one of the worst moments I have seen in anime. I still hate some One Piece stuff wholeheartedly but it is ny number 1 still for now I think.

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

Top 5 worst is insane take. This is way better than Thriller Bark for example(they used One Pace a lot in Thriller Bark)

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

Can't relate🤔

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

"Next 100 episodes are peak" was so misleading😅 Impel Down has been good for like the last 4 episodes. Very mid overall.

Sasha (Sanji is the real Flame Emperor)

Agha

To be fair though the geks perpetuate this by continuously mentioning these future arcs and hype episodes they’ve heard about and discuss the opinions commenters have given on them, in a usually positive manner. So it needs to stop on both ends tbh

Marcus D

People over hyping upcoming arcs makes their expectation too high, resulting in Luke warmness or disappointment. The Geks should be able to experience their first watch without preconceived expectations for upcoming arcs.

Bryant

Big one piece fan here and one that is caught up, McKay I agree with u on this arc. It’s ASS like top 5 worst IMO!!! Patience is a virtue McKay!!

beckett9898

That’s frieren, it replaced MHA which was a triple drop(Monday, wed, sat) but was the replacement of the regular Tuesday and Thursday show. So you’re still getting the Tues/Tues but on different days with an extra upload.

Marcus D

49:52 imma be real, dont trust one piece fans lol. Die hard fans will glaze the mid stuff and call it peak because of nostalgia, or say dont use One Pace even if the pacing ruins everything, so take everything with a grain of salt. But It doesn't mean they are always untrustworthy ofc.

Jonas Teigen

46:19 LMAO McKay, but its a valid take tbh. I'm glad that the worst part is at the start of the arc, so its only up from here.

Jonas Teigen

has a lot of ups and downs (mostly downs especially in the start)

Peak

1way

Why are we not getting a 2nd anime on Tuesdays and Thursdays?

Poragami

I know people get excited when it comes to a new arc, but it kind of irritates me when people throw the word peak around when there’s a difference between a peak arc e.g. Sabaody and peak MOMENTS e.g. Nothing Happened. Impel down is not peak but it does have peak moments with good storytelling. It’s unfortunate it’s brought down by bad pacing but trust me later later on it gets worse i’m sure Jack will tell you guys though :)

Daniella

Hey guys, I think this is my first time commenting! I really like watching people react to my favourite shows and one day while I was on a road trip your “ Anime haters watch one piece for 12 hours straight “ video just popped up and i enjoyed it and really liked you guys, after that i started binging all your reactions until I finally caught up to the weekly Patreon uploads when you guys were in Thriller Bark. I love One Piece so much, but as a person im not that fan of most of the show’s gags especially since most of the time they get dragged out because of toei studio let alone the filler they add. So while catching up not just because of those said scenes only but also cause because i would like to get every minute possible of you guys reacting to the show i thought about writing to you guys so many times to point out that you should please use One Pace and Other times I've thought about asking why you don't just increase the number of episodes you watch a week. I've also often wondered if you'd ever do a 'One Piece Week.' I've always had these ideas bouncing around personally as i said i had these ideas for months, really wanting you guys to shake up your schedule and now that we're getting close to Marineford, a lot of people are asking for the exact same thing so it would make sense for me to agree with them but for the exact same reason, i don’t. My reason for that is is we all stuck it out and watched through all the different arcs and the inconsistent pacing and we still enjoyed and for me Tuesdays and Thursdays became somewhat the highlight of my week because of yall and now that you’re near what people consider the “PEAK” arc I feel like it wouldn’t make sense to suddenly change the upload schedule whether it's with a one piece week or increasing the episodes per drop because that would mean it will end faster and that’s something we would’ve liked with the longer or more stretched arcs such as the one you now watch. Also because i wouldn’t want you guys to get overwhelmed with the change of what you were used to all this time i really want to make sure that you are capable of giving every single thing that happens in this arc what it deserves just like you always did with everything in the show. I know I wrote a novel here, and you're probably not planning on changing anything anyway, but I still wanted to share my thoughts with you guys p.s i just read carter’s comment about cooking something for marineford so i think what i said wouldn’t be for nothing after all 😆

No need to call them that, some people just let the hype get the better of them. Annoying but, not worthy of that insult

Marcus D

Wasn’t it just one comment, in one comment section that said the next 100 eps were peak, not multiple?💀

Marcus D

The level 5 vs level 6 confusion comes from the fact that level 6 is a secret even to the prisoners of impel down - Luffy thought that Ace was on level 5 due to Buggy telling him that that was the lowest level and therefore most likely where he would be held - and is only known of by the people living in Newkama Land and the guards

Hegataro

Just to be clear, you guys are the ones missing Oda's creativity but that's fine, I still enjoy the reactions even with the L takes.

We're in to the real trash arcs from here on, Marineford is gonna be a slog to get through hope yall can get through it. But to be fr people need to stop calling everything peak and hyping up arcs, it just gives others expectations and an idea of how "good" they want the arc to be. It removes that slight blind reaction aspect, so when someone doesn't vibe with said arc it only just ends up making them more disappointed with it, cuz it didn't give what you wanted from the arc.

InitialD

Wait really?? I thought he sounded different here on my rewatch that’s so sad :(

Impel down was written in 2009 I think; and continuously at least one per arc until this very day in 2025, oda still writes something completely unexpected and off base and they’re goated. (☘️)

Marcus D

;yea the path down in impel down is defently weaker most of the jokes were not hitting but it set up a lot of plot points for the path up this was all set up for whats to come

Same shit that happened with Naruto. People forgot that they watched this shit when they were like 13 year olds and everything was so much more exciting to us back then.

Really? Do a lot of people skip the outros? I listen to them fully every-time, part of the main reason I tune in to every op upload. I’d actually be less inclined to watch if you didn’t do them, I was actually lowkey upset when you guys stopped them for a bit during alabasta haha. Keep doing them boys always enjoy them and are a good listen,(apart from when McKay and Carter trash on the stuff I love🤬), the longer the better. Keep up the good discussions boys, love it💪.

Marcus D

There hasn't been one arc in One Piece that doesn't have at least some goofy gags, so I get confused why we're surprised when the tone would shift from serious to goofy when that's been the whole show. Oda has stated his desire to write what he finds interesting and fun, actively trying to subvert reader expectations that battle manga must be consistently serious. He balances serious themes with lightheartedness. Yes, Toei sometimes stretches it out, which could be a hit or a miss, it definitely depends (I have personally beef with Toei for other things). But I feel like for this show, you know One Piece doesn't fail when it's time to get serious. We can go from a funny gag of Sanji and Zoro beefing to them both sacrificing their life for their captain. We can go from the reveal of Duval to us encountering Celestial Dragons and more corruption. We can go from Luffy having a funny sequence with Buggy, Mr. 3, and Bon Clay entering level 4 to later Luffy fighting everything he has with Magellan and ending up almost dying if it wasn't for Bon Clay. The " 100+ episodes of peak" people were saying means good storytelling nonstop. I do agree we should stop overly saying peak so the Geks won't have a certain expectation. But again, with One Piece you know when it's time to get serious it's damn good. As soon as you hear "Kaizokuō Ni Ore Wa Naru!" it's time to lock in I understand other perspectives, but I don’t think filler or even the gags that some think is “bad” overweighs how good this arc is. Granted we’re not done yet, so I’ll leave that to the future.

Nanami's Wife

Impel down is so much better than the maiden island arc. I don't get any hate or guff from this arc. You have peak fights and mid-lows but the arc isn't near enough low when compared to others. To be honest I think this arc is more fun than the next on a re-watch or re-read.

Dale Cooper

I dont know if you guys noticed but Jinbeis voice/voice actor changed, this is because the original voice actor passed away. I just want to say RIP to Daisuke Gouri the original voice actor 🕊️

Ulises Flores(Uliee.)

Yeah. It’s just people who can’t handle experiencing something they’re not fond of for more than one instance I guess. It’s some of my least favourite stuff in one piece but people are just making a big fuss for nothing.

Marcus D

That’s cool never saw that one. Also it’s worth noting that oda wants to emulate shanks irl as much as possible, I’m assuming he thinks shanks is cool lol. He even got shanks’ iconic pants custom made and usually wears them when he does interviews lol.

Marcus D

From an interview with Oda back in 2018. "Q: Mr. Oda, what does Luffy mean to you? Oda: Luffy is my ideal child. I wish all children could be like him. He may say some inspirational lines from time to time, but I want him to stay a kid forever. There are parts of him that remain a mystery to me, for better or worse. It’d be boring for both the readers and me if I knew everything about him. Q: Please tell us your favorite characters. Oda: I like drag queens like Ivankov and Bon Clay. [redacted due to spoilers]. There’s always a funny dichotomy between their actions and their appearance, which makes me want to draw them more. I also adore Buggy, who’s annoying yet cunning."

Enma

yep the chat cried when they did it a bit in thriller bark but you can tell by them sarcastically slapping their knees everytime a gag happens they clearly dont enjoy it even though I love buggy and dont mind the vice warden if anything sadie makes me cringe more but they should just do one pace instead of complaining every ep also these two episodes were very good and there were multiple times they were hyped with ivankov and luffy interactions, ace and set up happening so Im not sure I understand their disdain

biscuit man

The crashouts in the comments because of Buggy D Goat and Galdino's shenanigans are so funny 😂. Their duo is literally Dumb and Dumber so I understand the humour might not be hitting for some, but outside of their team-up with Bon Clay in ep 437, they've only been on-screen for 10 minutes in the last 7 episodes (~140 minutes). It's not like they're taking up half the screen time of every episode.

SavDog23

The issue with "100 episodes of peak" is that people just remember all the highlights from these episodes because that's what stands out in your memory. The Buggy/Mr. 3 stuff I don't know if anyone loves, but I don't mind it, like I'm not bothered to see them, but for those of us who have been watching One Piece for decades at this point it's like watching a rerun of a show on TV (in the age of streaming will younger people even know what that means?). Some things you're just stockholm'ed into casually enjoying. On the other hand if you're still newer to One Piece and you're just looking for that peak everywhere then yeah they're gonna feel like that annoying thing dragging the show out from showing you what you really want, so I get that. It's that or more literal Warden shit so pick your poison (heh).

Nick K

this arc is great wym

Sandi uchiha

we should set the bar lower imo lol, the huge hype always sets reactors expectations way too high

The anime adaptation of this arc is mid. I don't think your opinions of it would have changed even if people didn't hype it up for you.

Yea that’s like the most lukewarm take ever, we’ve only been introduced to him for like 10 episodes and he’s had a total of 2 conversations lol

Mitch

impel down slows down the streak of peak episodes but then you get marineford and EVERY episode is cinema so it balances out

cozo

cannon the reason people like jimbe is cus they've just seen way more of his character, obviously you aren't expected to love him when he's barely just been introduced and hasn't done anything yet 😭

Luli Deferrari

THE MIC IS ACTUALLY CLOSER TO MKEY AND IT WORKED

Luli Deferrari

Why are we saying stuff like this😂

Carter D. Andrus

Honestly, I don't mind the jokes and silliness because they have a special kind of humor that I love. Besides, OP is a story that builds slowly, not every episode is shocking or crucial, but they always contribute something to the plot. Other anime with a darker tone and better pacing are intense, and I love them too, but they don't last long. For a long-term experience, OP is the best.

Arely

I still get confused by this notion that I don’t get as hype as everyone else during big moments😂😂

Carter D. Andrus

My goat

Mitch

Great way to describe it. 375-500 is undisputed the best span of eps in the series bar none. Of course there’s some slow moments and weak eps, but that span as a whole is peak anime without question.

Mitch

W outro. Most of this arc is unfortunately such a drag in the anime and kills a lot of the momentum gained from Saboady and Amazon Lilly. There has been 14 manga chapters of Impel Down so far inclusive of these episodes which could be done in 6-8 episodes with proper pacing, instead of the 16 episodes it's been filler inserted and padded out to be. I understand the decision to watch regularly but one pace easily would've made this a better experience

Carlos

That’s not a hot take you haven’t seen Jinbei do anything and impel down was horrrible for me 1st watch it has its moments but it definitely gets better after this but rewatch has been ehhh I haven’t seen the one pace version but I’m sure it would’ve been better

Carlos

I can relate to your first take on this arc. It was definitely not a stand out for me and I didn’t understand why some people had this so high on their lists… However, After being caught up with one piece for many years now and haven rewatched most arcs via yt reaction. I feel I can confidently say it’s a good arc. Standard good arc. I’d actually personally say it’s a very good. Somewhere in between ‘very good’ and ‘great’ but maybe not quite there yet 🤔 Wouldn’t be mad at a ‘great arc’ tho and wouldn’t be the someone who’d argue it wasn’t part of the peak run. Unless in a discourse where we’re being 100% objective and nit picky etc etc but for the most part you know what I mean. Anyways - 7.9 (my objective rating) -8.4 (my low-mid level op glaze rating) (For a reference, I find myself siding with carters take on most anime openings. Take that as you will lol) My main take away would be: - I don’t blame you for the view on where we’re at right now - You will like it more each week going forward. Definitely a shift in intensity and stakes Best way to leave it is I think is to end of by saying this: I don’t remember which among you said it before. But I’m it’s one of those one piece arc that starts of really good, has a weakish middle and annoying parts but then concludes really peak. Makes you forget about all the bs that happened lmao

Pademi

We do consider that but the point remains that the benefits FAR outweigh any of the downsides. Going forward one pace is far more necessary. People straight up hate arcs without it

Pace

I like buggy and mr.3. but one of my reasons that I don't wanna see them here is that I don't want any fun without our crew. It's fine to be in dark till our crew is back. about goofiness,it didn't felt that bad when i first watched it cause i binged the arc. But I can understand your frustration.

Vinsmoke Pudding

yeah. im afraid that they will be disappointed because it seems like they have really high expectations. marineford is well written. it is good. its also my favorite arc up to whole cake island ( i just finished it) but i am afraid that it won't go in the way they want 😓

The "100 episodes of peak" take really means "100 episodes of peak story telling", rather than "100 peak episodes in a row". It's not gonna be 100 straight 9.5+ episodes, but the experience as a whole will be incredible. And this generational run of storytelling actually started with Kuma vs Strawhats in Ep 375 and will continue until the early 500s. Has Oda not been cooking with the end of Thriller Bark, Sabaody, Amazon Lily, and a decent chunk of Impel Down? The best is yet to come.

A lot of people are wishing for One Pace, and I can understand the reasoning. Toei’s padding does dilute the show a lot, some arcs more than others. However, it’s not a holistically better choice, but rather a tradeoff. While you cut out all of the padding and dumb filler, you also remove the ”adaptation” from the anime. One Pace deliberately cuts out pretty much everything not in the manga, so inevitably some amazing anime original scenes will also be cut. By watching One Pace, it’ll almost be like you’re watching the manga rather than an anime adaptation of the manga. I’m not saying one is inherently better than the other, just that it’s something to consider.

I’m totally fine with McKay getting annoyed by goofy characters and jokes, and I’m just as fine with Cannon being overly disgusted by a booger. Still what makes me happy is having Carter in the mix as someone who isn’t as hyped as everyone else during the big moments, but is also unfazed by the “bad” ones and always stays locked in. I love how different all your reactions are and that none of you try to fake it or hide how you really feel. Sure sometimes I get a little upset when something doesn’t click for you, but honestly if you were laughing when the show is trying to be funny, or if you were sad only when the show told you to be sad, or if you forced yourself to tolerate things you find annoying, you wouldn’t be my favorite reaction channel ❤️

Marineford is peak but they do sneak some joke moments here and there as well, so don’t have too high hope and think the whole arc is going to be 100% serious ig, and impel down are probably gonna be some peak moments mixed with terrible moments with the joke moments, this is my predictions judging from you guys tastes I guess

beannie

This is the reason I recommend One Pace for Impel Down, the Buggy Mr. 3 stuff is filler, the anime adds loads of unfunny jokes, and Toei didn't pull the tone shift off like the manga did when Magellan dropped in. In the Manga from that point onwards the tone gets very dark, until Iva's intro and Luffy's recovery. it's a 8.5 to 9 in the manga in the anime it's like a 6.5

Tom

I have a feeling too...soon...for Marineford....

The Buggy Me 3. stuff is filler, FYI

I think you'll turn around on this arc and maybe not love it but still like it by the end. I mean you could do 6 episodes a week and get to peak of peaks faster if you really wanted too I guess....

Hype

McKay gonna eat his words about buggy I just know it

Chris Schwirz

not really, he grows on you over time but he can be very jarring at first lol

Vincent S Deluca

No it’s not a hot take you guys didn’t see him do anything

Adeeb Alothman

If you do switch - you are half way through episode 7 of one pace - there’s 3 more one pace episodes to go of this arc compared to 16 more to go in the original anime lol

Pace

Common W McKay take.

JayCnY

bon clay and luffy’s bond is one of my favorites in the show. also, y’all gotta believe us a bit when we’re talking about the pacing issue of certain arcs 😭

Esther

Mckay I agree with you, impel down kinds trash 😂 I loved the good moments but its not even my top 10 arcs

Zoro’s Enma!

Don’t worry guys I’m not holding this against Oda or the show, I think i was just super excited/dreading the Ace execution and the tone felt very serious and now it’s been put off with a lot of gags and jokes/filler which makes the arc not feel as emotional or important like the previous did. Even the execution countdown doesn’t feel imposing because it’s show right after a goofy 3 and Buggy scene. All that aside I know that the we are close to peak so I’m super pumped, just giving my real thoughts in real time!

McKay Carter

I wasn’t really one of the people saying the next 100 episodes were gonna be straight peak cuz those ppl should know that the moments they’re thinking about, still takes some patience and build up to get to within the whole stretch, but impel down as a whole is still a good arc. Curious how you’ll feel once finishing the whole arc. To me it’s definitely better than Amazon lily which you guys like so much. There’s more stakes, characters coming back, build up to marineford and more juicy stuff in the arc that just gets mixed with some silly/annoying stuff that depends on the person if they can tolerate or not. I’m just excited yall getting closer to marineford where I can confidently get behind the hype…and just having a slimmer hope of a possible Marineford binge🙏🏽 Anyway W reaction

Nonos

To be fair any show that goes on for 100 episodes is bound to have some uninteresting ones

Benjamin Knock

Wait whattt?

McKay Carter

To be fair, very hot take, and I'm insisting that this is only my opinion and experience, but I don't think there's such a thing as '100 straight episodes of peak' in all of One Piece. In every arc (unless it's really short), there's always a point where stuff is dragging or scenes are repetitive. That's just One Piece and you either get used to it or don't (but I tend to remember those past arcs with fondness, usually, because the peak moments carry it for me, still, it's true that it feels different when you actually watch it). That said, to me, I feel like Impel Down is not too bad. Idk if One Pace would solve that, I'm not familiar with it, but it'll probably be better than without it.

Pudding

The pacing def not the best but we warned yall. But i love the characters we getting. The queer love as well.

EmlovesOP

i mean we did tell u guys this arc has 16 eps worth of filler so the "trash arc" take isn't really that surprising in the end most of us still liked the arc but if u guys dont and one pace woulda made it better its a shame but at least u get the same exp as us

KrispyKenny1

Please listen to the people saying switch to One Pace for Impel Down. It is the studio extending and adding scenes that is hurting your enjoyment. 🙏

BH

W early drop

Zipzzty

I listen to the end of every of video, I actually wish you guys kept going sometimes or didn’t cut off so soon. I enjoy the friendly banter y’all have

BH

Fr

Zipzzty

Pls use one pace

Pace

Toei’s fillers is what drags it down significantly. One pacing it is closer to manga experience

Pace

Only if you use One Pace

Pace

Yeah, that’s what confused me in the comments during Sabaody. I had no idea why everyone kept saying we’ve got 100 episodes of peak coming up. This arc was a drag for me the first time I watched it aside from a few really cool moments, and it’s still a drag for me on this rewatch.

Maj

my nuanced take on impel down is that one pace makes it better

Jonesy

All of us want, I hope they make it 6 eps per week at least

Sherya

That’s why as a manga reader it’s so painful to hear McKay calling it garbage 😂

Nash

4 episodes a week = 3.4 manga chapters - no wonder. Toeis pacing is diabolical

Pace

Its safe to google Frank n Furter btw if u dont know him

Fatipapi (Naoya’s Girl)

Manga is so much better

Nash

Carter pls switch to One Pace for the rest of Impel down. Let Mckay's comments at the end be a testament as to why One PACE is necessary. Those scenes that pained him the most were literally filler - especially those long sequences with buggy and Mr 3 in the previous episodes were Toei's padding. (Those scenes that u kept mistaking for Oda setting those characters up for smth big- but it’s just padding) If you look at the manga chapters for this arc, its crazy how much Toei stretched it to infinity. 4 episodes a week = 3.4 manga chapters - try making any arc good with that filler bloated pacing. It slows it down to a crawl. Thats how much the story is diluted with mediocrity and destroys its reputation...

Pace

Disliking ivan……. Now THATS a hot take

Fatipapi (Naoya’s Girl)

MORE DROPS RN!! I NEED THEM ALL!!

Xignius

...Impel down is my favorite arc v.v Im sorry yall arent as into it

cade-carter

I also think the fact that most of the watchers here were binging a lot of this, when you guys have a week of 4 episodes that kind of drag/are more setup it can feel a lot more spaced out, when a majority of the people in the comments watched this arc, 4 episodes was just a portion of what they were watching that day lol so 4 episodes of setup feels like a far lesser chunk than it being a week of content

Mags

Thank you! It's escaping time!

jrnoodles

Lmao cannon, obviously you dont get the Jimbei hype because like u said, he hasnt done shit yet 😂 not a hot take at all

Fatipapi (Naoya’s Girl)

YOOOOO, this early?????????

Juicy D. jaloomba

here to defend my "next 100 episodes are peak" claim - I will definitely admit that because this is a rewatch for me, everything is a lot better. I'm just more attached to the characters because I know where they end up in the future + I've had more time to engage with them, so even the lows of buggy and mr 3 are really funny for me, like i've loved every episode of this arc. BUT i can definitely see how, if I put myself in the shoes of a first time watcher such as yall, that this arc definitely starts a little stinky. That I concede. I think when I said next 100 episodes I was lowkey thinkin about myself on the rewatch vibe not realizing the gags you guys would have to be introduced to for the first time😭 HOWEVER I definitely believe that from this episode on, its like straight heat, and ESPECIALLY the next arc will make up for so much of the early slog here!

Niko

Same opinion canon on Jinbei

El

Totally felt the same way about Jimbe at this point of the story

Mags

Magellan reminds me of the Jeepers Creepers monster

LeBron Glazer (Bronsexual)

I mean hindsight aside I think hes been pretty likeable so far. hes just chopping it up with ace and comforting him

farkzzy

That’s a very fair take, I think since obviously most of us have watched Marineford, the setup of the characters that come into play, that will also have huge roles in Marineford, and the events that are about to take place in impel down is what makes impel down and Marineford a 2 in 1 arc. They’re obviously very different but tie in together as Marineford advances, and yeah, you guys might not feel the same after all is done, but I have a small feeling you guys will appreciate what its role is and what it’s trying to setup, despite the arc being extremely slow.

Kuro

To be fair Cannon, what aura can Jinbei farm trapped in a 2 by 4 cell. Dude is working with what he got.

Ante

GAMBAREEEEEE 🗣🗣🗣 I love Bon Chan so much man ❤

wanira 11

Mugiwara boy is my new favorite name😂

Carter D. Andrus

I don’t think that’s a hot take at all😂 I’m just glad you can set aside the emotion and understand logically

Carter D. Andrus

Blue Forest

Go to tiktok and look up quarter zip

Carter D. Andrus

There are literally more anime episodes for Impel Down than there are manga chapters lmao. And the chapters are only like 23ish pages.

Sasha Ruple

Give Jimbie some time to cook for sure

Ben Everest

Honestly Impel Down having a whole ass city underneath their levels without them noticing is kinda hilarious 😂 like how did they not notice all the food that went missing lmao

wanira 11

this is where we turn up letsgooo

Bon boy what a lad🫡

T.Yaseen

By the way! Ivankov's look was based on Dr. Frank n Furter played by Tim Curry

Fatipapi (Naoya’s Girl)

Please react to Normal People or One Day!

Claireclaire99

I was getting cooked last drop for saying what Mckay said at the end here. McKay is my spirit animal it seems. But for what its worth like Cannon said, One Piece does have a way of surprising.

Ante

Bon Clay and Ivankov are goated, can't wait for you guys to see more of the peak to come

Gorira Kujira

I feel like you guys would appreciate Impel down A LOT more after Marineford, its drags heavily at the moment since you're awaiting ace's execution, but it's honestly such a great setup for moments to come, and without it, Marineford wouldn't be as heavy hitting as it has a reputation of.

Kuro

I love these arcs but yea the buggy and 3 had me skipping scenes, literal waste of screen time

wadad sk

a quarter zip of what??? my mind went straight to something else...

forthwanderer

so close to peak

Kuro

We need another one piece week asap 😭

Maria

You indeed know nothing…yet. My hot take is I simultaneously like and despise listening to your takes 😭. I have such a strong love for this show that it’s hard to accept criticism for it. But the reasonable part of me understands. Don’t speculate too much though you’re not even halfway there! And btw saying “garbage arc” was harsh 🥲

Dounia

GANBARE MUGI-CHAN!

The Ivan pulse check is not a gag. The context needed to understand that scene is found much later in the show.
