ONE PIECE EP 273 "All for the Sake of Protecting My Friends! Gear 2 in Motion" Full Length Reaction

Comments

I like to believe Blueno was about to keep fighting, heard Luffy start to say "gear third" and just decided man I'm fuckin tired.

I'm honestly not sure there is a set way. The Viz manga translation uses "Gear two", the subtitle translation says "Second gear", and if you listen in the Japanese, Luffy literally says "Gear Second". I tend to go with gear second, I think, but people use them all interchangeably.

As far as games, I prefer Pirate Warriors franchise. 3 is probably the best, but 4 is pretty smooth too and looks real pretty.

Funny that you bring up video games because I actually did own a One Piece fighting game on the GameCube called "One Piece Grand Battle", back when I was young and naive, having no idea how big of a franchise it actually was. It was pretty fun, but as I'm not actually good at fighting games, I didn't get much done in it. Worse still, I found out years later that the localizers of the game were forced to stick to what the (4Kids) dub had actually reached by that point and thus cut out a meaty chunk of the game's content for us poor Americans.

And for us dub fans, the correct lingo would, in fact, be Second Gear. :P I sorta agree with you about the lack of build-up, but on the other hand, what I like about Second Gear vs. your typical Shonen powerup is that it isn't some unlocked ability or latent potential bullshit. It's just Luffy gauging his own strength compared to what his enemies can do and being like "You know what? I can do something with this." Realistically, I have no idea when he had the time to practice it and it definitely could have been alluded to better, but it's still an awesome moment.

Gear 2 (and yes, for us western fans the correct lingo would be Gear 2) sure is a cool power-up..... however.... when it comes to it's build-up i actually think it's one of the weakest storytelling-wise. Luffy had literally no time to train a power like this, there was simply no place or time for him during Water 7 where he could actually develop this technique, is like... he only watched CP9 do their Six Powers and just by watching it he came up with something that could alter his own body in order to improve his speed and strengh to Six Powers Level. I know this is not a big deal and that im being too technical.... but other Luffy power-ups made much more sense than this.

There are One Piece Video Games but they aren't great. There are some bad ones and some alright ones.
