The war for Alabasta begins...

Comments

Karoo is my goat and I mean that

april 🍏

I've been considering leaving and coming back every couple of months to catch up on the One Piece reactions for the same reason. Two episodes at a time just never makes me fully satisfied. Same thing with 1 episode of Mob at a time

Mahti

Four episodes a week of OP are just not enough for me. I just can't. I'm not saying you guys are the problem; I'm saying I am the problem. Best of luck to your channel. I'm out.

kobehoneylyn

damn i thought they did one or two drops when they first started watching but i guess i remembered wrong lol and seriously, waiting for today’s post has been torturee

Seda

i dont think there was a single saturday op drop, just the extra ep they did on thursday one time for the chopper backstory. not to mention the 4 eps we missed during holidays, got serious withdrawals rn

KrispyKenny

i know there weren't many saturday op drops but seeing it get taken off the schedule still hurts😭hopefully there'll be some bigger ep drops soon

Seda

Op??

Emily

Sadly it’s prob my biggest criticism with the series.

Mitch

I just rewatched your reaction to The Breathtaking World of One Piece and I would love to see you guys react to it again some day, I can’t imagine how good it would be to see you guys watch it again now that you would recognize some places and maybe some characters and now that you understand how the world works a little better

rene

I shall now only be calling him mamama🤣🤣

Veronia

Very rarely though

Sasha

McKay saying Usopp has been growing on him, let’s go 💪

esie ♡︎

4 episodes a week is painfully slow, give me 6 and I'll pay whatever

Mahti

Do people die in this show? Ummm…..yeah

JD Galbraith

3 episodes a drop would be legendary!!!!!!!! Would feel more engaging since it would feel like binging.

Marcos

Day 1 of asking the Geks to add one more episode per drop. Like if you agree.

Ulises Flores(Uliee.)

D. Friends we made along the way

Marcus

I hope they don’t skip the lil “filler” after Skypiea cuz its so funny and actually pretty good 😭 didn’t feel like filler at alll

Fatipapi

Lmaooo I'm sure it has nothing to do with prior knowledge, Jack. And no worries McKay, gotta give credit where it's due. 👍

CoLdBITeR

Nahhhhh I caught it first…..

Jackson Carter

Cookin!

McKay Carter

Thanks for catching that haha

McKay Carter

Brigs gotta start getting his respect lmaoo hes dialed on every show I swear

Isaiah

There is no L but the R sounds in Japanese sound between R and L and is used for both. That makes it annoying for translating to other languages and figuring out if it’s supposed to be an L or an R.

Keiji

The next arc has one the best settings.

Mitchel

Ya I agree and we not hating or anything on Jack he the goat for pushing for the One Piece reactions. I just want them to enjoy the show and I know like Jack and the most of us we want to just explain things as soon as we notice little details that for shadow or hint to something. Jacks the goat regardless so thank you!

psychotaco343

I’m laughing how @brig called him mamama instead of igaram 🤣🤣🤣

El

Take note jack

El

I love it

El

I would love if they had a reaction to the openings once the season or arc (for animes like One Piece and Naruto) was over.

Rayanh LaNansha

Question for the geks!?!?!? Any more anime opening reactions?

Marcos

He legit falls in love with the weird parts of one piece. Like bon clay who is queer hahahaha

Marcos

Ohh i didnt know about the mineral thing 👀 and yeah, there is no L in japanese alphabets, only ra/re/ru/ro/ri and thats closest to it sound wise, similar to how there’s no “si”, only “shi” so ‘system’ would be ‘shi-su-te-mu’

Fatipapi

Partly Oda’s fault because when he initially introduced the region in the manga he called it Alabasta the first 2 times. And now there’s a debate in the fandom over what the true spelling is 😂 The argument for it being Alabasta is that Egyptians used a mineral called Alabaster to make some artifacts. Something interesting I learned is that the Japanese “R” sound is similar to the English “L” sound so it is hard for native Japanese speakers to distinguish between the two. In some translations Zoro is written as Zolo. And some early translations of Luffy’s name had it written as Ruffy.

1999

Zipzzty

Wait a minute, if Carter is a space merchant, how have they not watched Cowboy Bebop yet? It's a little old school but it's also regarded as a top anime.

Matt Haloostock

One Piece is great for a lot of reasons - the little jokes and interactions being one of them. It's nice to see that McKay appreciates it since some of the jokes seem to go unnoticed or maybe its just not their type of humor. Some things are a miss even for me, but as another guy commented, how has no one commented on choppers way of hiding? lol

Matt Haloostock

Anakin has entered the chat lol

Matt Haloostock

Imagine S****** lol

Nash

Poor McKay, not getting any credit from the geks for catching onto it being Mr. 2 before even Carter realizing "that bird" moment.

CoLdBITeR

It’s back to back peak 😩

Nash

😂😂

Fatipapi

"how has she not been trampled-- there it is" 😂 There is a tendency of anime shows interrupting brig, just as he mentions it.

CoLdBITeR

The problem is that he points out those tiny details as it's happening or right before anyone else realizes it. When the conclusion of the setup is reached, then would be a good time to remind them of all the set up Oda did for that plot thread. If you point out all the small clues before the reveal, it just makes the conclusion obvious and the payoff underwhelming. It's like saying, "ohh he didn't get crushed by the Female Titan, i wonder why that is." I guarantee you they wouldn't have enjoyed AOT as much as they did if he made those comments during their watch of the show. Technically it's not spoiling but it sure as hell decreases their enjoyment of the show.

AV

i didn’t notice that

DC

McKay might be enjoying OP more than Carter and Cannon now.

AV

when i notice something i missed while rewatching i try to only share what i think isn’t that big a deal but i get it and i’ll try not to - anyway peace and love🫶

Seda

Lol 😂

Crystal

What section are you referring to?

Zess

Wow McKay's deductive skills on point here 👏

Sun

I just feel like it’s a little hindsight merchant-y. My own opinion tho. You do you, ig

Sandi

i don’t think i said or spoiled anything that hasn’t already been shown soo i don’t really see the issue🤷🏻‍♀️the comments are where you share your thoughts and discuss and that’s all i was doing

Seda

maybe dont spell things out for them and have them come to their own conclusions.

Sandi

Ngl it's a fair critism for early one piece. Someone even asked Oda why no one dies and Oda explained in SBS.

ttchoppa

@storm what a weird comment you are saying like writing is all abt pacing.

ttchoppa

I’m also very hyped for Sabaody.

ttchoppa

Zoro cooked with that two-factor authorization

Betty H

W

Qhoa

I forgot how good the ending song for this arc was, I've been listening to it pretty much every day lol

N P

Completely fine to criticise it, most real one piece fans will agree with you about it lol

ahmad

Karoo never did anything to be hated... so undeserved

cade-carter

nah

Jesse Gutierrez

The way my blood temp slightly started rising after “a simple google search” like

Braylen

Probably AI soldiers AI ducks lol

ttchoppa

@Christina Laegel also my favorite :D

ttchoppa

Agree to disagree still stands but I genuinely wanted to know why that arc is poorly written

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

What happened to your comment about agree to disagree? The fights in one piece suck. Considerably the worst part of the show. It doesn’t make me a Naruto fan “poser” to acknowledge its flaws,I still love parts of it hence my pfp but even still I already apologized for the over criticism. It’s not “hate” to criticize something and I never even specified that arc I said the end of the fight. This is a weird argument for no reason

Micah Seer

I bet it took him mad long to find it too and he’s just trying to be cool🥱

Crystal

That fight is poorly written? It's is miles better than any One Piece fight we've seen so far, so stop disguising yourself as a Naruto fan if you're going to hate on even that arc 😮‍💨

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

2 of the big 3 for a reason 💪🔥🙏

Marcus

Yeah true, one piece likes to mix n match everything haha, just like dressrosa being barcelona and then just an “italian building” in it 😂

Fatipapi

Oh absolutely writing. Just wait for tomorrows upload if they end up doing 5 episodes how that fight ends. I guarantee the boys dislike it because of how poorly it’s written.

Micah Seer

About to finish the shikamaru arc

Micah Seer

yes it does have a lot of inspiration from arabic countries/cultures but also the alubarna palace looks like the Taj Mahal in India

Nat_off

Mosshead no diffs curly brows

Mahti

Writing? Ight bro agree to disagree but I do admit early one piece does have better pacing. Keep the same energy down the line tho🫡

Storm

i will never tire of saying that oda's mind is a gift to us because one piece is THE BEST the very best

sil

Yesss I cant wait for those two!! But also Impel Down and Marineford 🔥

Fatipapi

have we? what arc are we on

Poragami

notice how miss all sunday didn’t finish off pell when she easily could have, saved luffy after his fight, failed to mention sanji to crocodile when she literally saw him on the boat, offered the crew a faster way to alabasta back at whiskey peak, and now we know that igaram isn't dead. so we know that she isn’t completely with crocodile and has her own agenda

Seda

I kinda dislike that they've written it as 'aLabasta' in english, rather than the japanese spelling aRabasta. Its clearly a very ARABic inspired kingdom, the style of the buildings, the peoples clothing, the Egypt references (yes, old egypt obviously wasnt arabic, but it is now), so it being written as aRabasta makes way more sense

Fatipapi

@crystal right?? So unnecessary. Theres only two uploads of that OST on yt and literally ALL the comments are saying how difficult this song was to find and how long theyve been looking for it 😂 and this guys like “a SIMPLE goodle search 💅🏼” 😅

Fatipapi

Average W Micah take 👌

Crystal

Lol 😂 i hate when people do this

Crystal

yeah just enjoy the show knowing theres no risk and nothing is permanent come on!

JayCnY

@psychotaco You’re totally right!! I edited my comment! Thanks for pointing that out

Fatipapi

Could’ve skipped the condescending tone, but THANK YOU 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Fatipapi

One piece is cooking, also for your sake Jack if anyone the other gek boys forgot something important it’s ok not to explain/remind them cause it will always make sense/click for them later even some of the most obvious things are hard to catch because oda floods the story with so much detail/information. That way none of the geks boys think your spoiling even tho you haven’t done that since GOT.

psychotaco343

WHO AND WHAT IS THE D

Zipzzty

Ya jack also didn’t mention a certain thing being involved you should just be careful what you say even if they mention something important never mention something in the comments that gives things away. One piece always gets into more detail later oda does crumbs of a bunch of stuff your not really suppose to remember till later

psychotaco343

i mean I get it but what's the point of always wanting people to die when they know and have seen so many other Shounen anime where editors literally have a limitation on named character deaths. No named humans in One Punch Man ever died, only monsters, and yet every 2 minutes they wish for the chracters in one piece would die off so much they had to cut a whole segment out of the reaction. pretty nuts but more engagement for their youtube comment section i guess

KrispyKenny

Yeah sorry you’re right. Naruto used to be my favorite up until a few years ago, so I’m still passionate about it but this rewatch of Naruto has disappointed me even more. Whereas I haven’t watched one piece in like a decade and it’s been surprisingly great.

Micah Seer

I doubt they just want people to die for the 'heck of it'. Igarams death was bait, and some people dont like that. it is what it is.

Ante

A simple google search points to an OST called "Looming Enemy" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmkubyLUcjE

KazumaSpitfire

You admitted that in every comment you post here. Every comment is how mid Naruto is and how it disappointed you on a rewatch

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

op thursday oh how i love these days let me watch this reactionnnnn and i'll be back with another comment lmao <3

sil

Thanks Geks! Karoo proving once again he is the GOAT

jrnoodles

YOO does anyone know what the OST at 37:18 is called??? I’ve been looking for it for FOREVER and i could never find it 😭 its such an iconic one

Fatipapi

Mister 1 and Zoro fight its so iconic

Hector

Vivi getting trampled 🤣 SHE NEEDS SOME MILK

Fatipapi

Oooooh right, that does ring a bell!!! I take it back then 👀 Sorry Jack! Proceed 😂

Fatipapi

please keep the "haku" meme going. I can see Jack internalizing everytime he hears it. lol

Niffol

idk if they will ever figure this out but they never really saw Igaram die and Robin was supposedly the one who killed him (same Robin that saved Luffy) so it's pretty easy to figure out that Robin didn't really kill Igaram... there's a reason they showed Robin saving Luffy before Igaram reappeared

KrispyKenny

Tbh it's a fair complaint to have, most of us have a problem with this but with Igaram I'm willing to accept it because it gives us insight on miss allsunday's true character

saDbo

Nah Brig but at the explosion scene you commented that it didn't make sense that Miss All Sunday could blow the boat up with just her arm powers. Now we can assume she probably was saving him/pulling him out of the blast instead, right?

S

After 200 episodes of mid we have finally arrived 🤩

Micah Seer

Wow, I haven’t rewatched this show in forever and I have to admit, after rewatching Naruto and One Piece with the Geks this time around One Piece clears Naruto. The writing is just so much better and I’ve been a Naruto guy my whole life up until the last few years

Micah Seer

The last scene we see of Dr. Kureha, she mentions Gol D. Roger to Dalton as they look at Luffy's wanted poster. Dalton goes: "D? You mean Gold Roger?" Kureha says "Oh, is that what they're calling him these days?"

S

One piece and Naruto are cooking rn 🥹😭🙏🏼

Brig Andrus

You’re right I shoulda expected mamama to tank that nuke

Brig Andrus

BBR DRIZZZAAAYYY 🍑🎶

Fatipapi

It was?? 😂 i have zero recollection of that wtf

Fatipapi

Bro it's already been revealed at the end of drum island remember?

wanira 11

Tbh, you shouldn’t have said it was Gol D Roger, Jack. There’s a reason it was changed to Gold Roger. Should’ve let them find out by themselves 🥲

Fatipapi

Karoo my goat

wanira 11

I could see that :) Yeah I need to check out One Piece sometime. It's such an OG anime with epic adventures and loyal friends. And thanks, glad I'm not a cheating then lol

Betsy

Once you get warmed up to one piece, you’ll wish there’s more episodes, it happens with everyone every time lol. The movies are mostly non canon so not a big deal, still cool that you even gave those a go, but the main series is the real deal.

Marcus

🦩 is my favorite for sure

Christina Laegel

there is no promised neverland season 2 in ba sing se

rain

I can’t wait for shippuden tomorrow

Aden

They cut the reaction to "mamama" guy surviving LMAO. Damn was the crash out that bad? I was looking forward to it lol.

Ante

It's bad but I haven't really gotten into One Piece yet. With it being long, it kind of intimidates me. But I watch the movies. I feel like a cheater lol 😭

Betsy

SW saga is my favourite

Marcus

Mob psycho is goated but also read/watch one piece 🙂

Marcus

Yeah season 2 was a disappointment. But I loved season as well.

Betsy

Let’s gooooo

Zipzzty

The Goat Ep of this arc is coming soon 2 weeks left

Zipzzty

Indeed. I'm curious to see the geks reaction to my boy Mob.

Betsy

I really enjoyed season 1 what they did to season 2 was dirty

Zipzzty

W Mob psycho is goated

Zipzzty

Good idea hopefully they see this

Zipzzty

Those are t5 for sure

Zipzzty

My fav arc has yet to come. I like the Arabasta arc but …. Water 7, and Enies lobby… so good

TT1000

You guys should say at the end of every arc or saga if your favorite pirate is still the same, your favorite arc, and who you think the best villain is so far. It would be fun to see how your opinion changes over time. I'm curious to find out who would be your favorite warlord and marine in the future as well.

Crimson Fire

Hi everyone. Sorry don't mind me. I'm just here waiting for Mob Psycho 100. Lol

Betsy

As a huge Gundam fan that's a decent one, but I don't think it's right to start watching Gundam without watching Wing or Mobile Suit Gundam first. I think Wing is the best for non-gundam viewers, but the OG is still good if you are understanding that it was animated in the late 70s. It really shows the overall political plot behind most Gundam series and the pain of both the people from Earth and the Colonies.

Sloth

i wouldn't get too caught up with the "no one dies" trope, it will just ruin your enjoyment. not every show needs to be like aot or jjk with unexpected deaths and mass civilian casualties for the stakes to be high. one piece has its own thing and its nice

kivu_king

remember that miss all sunday whos saves luffys life was also the one who supposedly "killed" igaram

Harrison Hird

Thank you for the reaction!! McKay actually makes me laugh because all the weird shennanigans that happen seem to amuse him greatly. Like how Mr 2 just flipped his way up and it looks weird af, like what just happened?! yet it still makes him laugh. The way all you guys genuinely enjoy One Piece has been my favorite thing about your reaction.

Rayanh LaNansha

Me too! It's so good!

Betsy

praying it'll be on the code geass poll

jessiefungirl

This is part of the one piece journey, luffy maturing as a pirate and captain. Realizing the world has people that are stronger “right now” and that if he wants to protect the ones he loves while pursuing his dream he has to get stronger. Love the reactions guys. Happy 2025!

Yerr

KAROOOOO

shlumlord

I think you all would also enjoy The Promised Neverland. It's kind of an underrated anime but I really enjoyed it :)

Betsy

y'all are 18 eps away till arc ends.

Amare D.

Once again gonna recommend mobile suit gundam: iron blooded orphans. Carter saying he’s a space merchant, I know he’d love it. Please add it to next anime poll. It won’t win but you guys gotta watch it eventually.

Apex

Yeah, I did not remember zoro being the one to come up with the imposter proof plan and I pride myself on remembering one piece moments lol.

Marcus

Idk how they are gonna make this a live action

Sanji

What I miss about the earlier arcs is that Zoro and Sanji used to be a bit more strategic.

Crimson Fire

😂 true to your name, I respect it

Marcus

Also Geks cut Jack some slack, I promise sometimes he isn't being a hindsight merchant and just genuinely can't remember haha. Like One Piece is my favourite show and I've even rewatched a ton but it's impossible to remember all small things or plot points. Like I only realised it was Bon Clay disguised as Usopp when Carter pointed it out lmao, and I promise Jacks comment of how "he'd get there so fast" wasn't cleverly hinting at the reveal but just a genuine thought that any of us would have while watching it haha. There's actually so surprisingly much I remember out of 1000+ episodes but also so much I don't because it is IMPOSSIBLE.

Shaun V

In regards to Igarahm’s ‘survival’, the attack on him was done by Ms. All Sunday. Notice how out of the multiple time she’s come into contact with someone from the crew’s side, she’s never once fatally wounded any of them despite being capable. She’s helped luffy and even offered to help another time back with an eternal pose. The only reason Vivi has had hope to stop this take over is because Ms. All Sunday intentionally led her to discovering that Croc is Mr.0. So I think it’s less about Igarham being a tank and more about Ms. All Sunday not intending to kill him.

Marcus

guarding the fridge from luffy is the ultimate training

MrP

yeah I appreciate this so much

Mahti

"I wanna go to space" lol very close

MrP

Oh for sure zoro wins but people make the gap between Sanji and zoro as close to like sanji and usopp (exaggerated but you get the gist)

Brent Mahasi

early god

Amare D.

Fr Zoro stronger tho

Zipzzty

Let’s gooooooo

Nash

Shaun V

Mosshead needs 3 swords and trains 24/7 only to be weaker than me 🤷🏼

Sanji

Karoooooooo, his time to shine

Super Novice

Great reaction! It’s funny in early reactions people think zoro and sanji are far in strength when they are always shown to be relative

Brent Mahasi

Early One Piece is always a W

no worries

u guus dont get how much i need severance

Lucas Chaves

Just in time for breakfast

Sanji

LeBron would have no-diffed Crocodile

LeBron Glazer (Bronsexual)
